U.S. Embassy to Holy See Again Displays LGBT Flag for ‘Pride’ Month
LifeSite News ^ | 6/1/22 | Raymond Wolfe

Joe Biden’s Secretary of State Antony Blinken last year authorized U.S. embassies to fly the LGBT flag on the same pole as the American flag.

ROME (LifeSiteNews) – The U.S. Embassy to the Holy See has once again snubbed the Catholic Church’s stance on sexuality and displayed the LGBT rainbow flag to kick off so-called “pride month.”

“The U.S. Embassy to the Holy See celebrates #PrideMonth with the Pride flag on display during the month of June,” the embassy said in a tweet reiterating the Biden administration’s support of “LGBTQI+ rights.”

The embassy similarly flew the rainbow flag for “pride month” last June and repeatedly posted social media messages backing the LGBT movement during the Obama administration.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken last year authorized U.S. embassies and consulates to fly the LGBT flag on the same pole as the American flag. The Trump administration, under the leadership of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, prohibited U.S. diplomatic missions from doing so, though LGBT symbols were permitted inside embassies.

Several commenters noted that the Catholic Church recognizes June as the month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ and tweeted images of Jesus’ Sacred Heart at the embassy.

May I repeat the oft recollected old Negro Spiritual song: “God gave Noah the Rainbow sign, no more Water, FIRE next time!” God has not changed, and His Law, His Torah is eternal. You may break it, and get by for a while, but in the end it will break you; as the Rabbi from Nazareth said, “it will ground you to powder.”

Very insensitive, but what can you expect from people with no tact.

I’m sure they’re going to do it in the Muslim countries. Courage of their convictions, you know

Veteran’s Day = 1 day
Memorial Day = 1 day
Labor Day = 1 day
Thanksgiving Day = 1 day
Christmas day = 1 day
Easter Sunday = 1 day

Gay Pride = 1 month
Black Pride = 1 month

What am I missing here?

I’m having a hard time figuring out exactly what they’re proud of.

The essence of homosexuality is that men like to take it up their asses, and the delusional trans think that women have dicks and men can get pregnant.

Really, when you boil it down isn’t that what they’re celebrating? Are those really things to be proud of?

You’re wayyyy too insensitive. Not only can men get pregnant, but they can also get abortions. It’s now a man’s choice!

Thanks for the education and my enlightenment. My point is that the most important date (imo) are celebrated for one day. You can celebrate National Ice Cream month.... Just not my cup of tea.

I'd characterize it as defiance.

It’s about recognizing that they exist. They were pink triangles in WW2 camps. I don’t agree with them flying the flag at embassies. What matters is diplomatic engagement with nations that still put them to death for existing. That’s what Trump was doing. I have never been a fan of the rainbow flag or “new glory” (the rainbow flag with the blue field of stars) like the stars and stripes.

Woodrow Wilson: “Make the world safe for democracy.”

Joe Biden: “Make the world safe for perverts.”

The perverts want to take over the planet—and yes the US Embassy does fly the rainbow flag in Arab countries:

Honestly, gay people are cool. That's the libertarian side of me. I don't care what two consenting adults do in a bedroom. That's none of my business.

But the rainbow flag is propaganda. It gets annoying. That kind of thing is better for a gay bar so people know they are attracting that kind of customer. But we don't need parades and a month to honor their lifestyle.

the Biden administration’s support of “LGBTQI+ rights.”

Does the Biden administration also support "White rights?"

If not: Why not?
