Oh my dogs that love gravy, this post set me off.  But before we get to that, I have been on and off on the computer today.  Ron is still hobbling yet went out and put the new night pole light.  So I have been doing the inside stuff, but yesterday our new outside solar pole lamp top arrived.  Now, we had agreed he would paint the pole before attaching the new light.   But today, after sitting in his chair as I was doing dishes, he disappeared for a while.  Then informed me that the new lamp post light was on the pole.  WTF!!!!   I don’t know.  But when I asked him about painting the pole, he said that could be done at any time.   So I guess we have to see what happens next. 

So now I am helping Ron make supper.  But in the post below, the dad and the host seem to think that the daughter’s sexual awakening was a choice, which we know it is not, and that somehow it was forced on her.  Notice that he says that the LGBTQ+ people want to “infest our children”  WTF!  Just how is such a belief possible?   Hugs.  Scottie

The Christian dad said that the “lesbian cult” took his daughter so he rejected her. But now some members of his family won’t talk to him.

Conservative BlazeTV host Steve Deace recently applauded a viewer for refusing to accept his lesbian daughter, saying that LGBTQ+ people want to “infest our children” and it’s important for parents to “maintain their conviction.”

Deace’s reaction came in response to a letter from a viewer named David Biddle, who said he is a fundamentalist Southern Baptist and a “culture warrior.”

He said his daughter “loved the Lord” and was his “world” and “sidekick” until her sophomore year of college, when she “got grabbed by the lesbian cult.”

“We naturally had the emotions of anger and heartbrokenness,” Biddle said, adding that he tried to convince her to change for the next year but that “she kept insisting it was her choice to do this and she just likes this better.”

He continued, “Within a year of her conversion, she was ‘engaged’ [to a girl]” and “she became militant towards us for not embracing her choices.” He explained that she said if they didn’t accept her, she would cut them out of her life.

“She basically demanded we deny our faith,” Biddle said. “That was demonic words coming from her mouth.” He asserted his belief that “affirmation is not love; it is condemnation” and said, “The most unloving thing I could do as a father was to pave her path to eternal damnation.”

He said he hasn’t spoken to his daughter in two years and that some of his extended family won’t speak to him and his wife for what they have done.

Biddle ended by praising Deace’s show for continuing to spread anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric. “Keep sounding the alarm of the evil demonic forces that are capturing our kids and all of society,” he said.

Deace’s response was to encourage parents like Biddle to “maintain their conviction.”

“This is not as uncommon of a story as we would wish, unfortunately,” he said, adding that “a lot of our institutions have a lot of conviction to infest our children,” as if LGBTQ+ people are insects or rodents that need to be exterminated.

“If they have come to the point that they can penetrate the bubble of families, even like the one that David articulated here, understand that this thing has metastasized deeply into our culture, and the only way out is through,” Deace said. “I’d urge everybody in our audience to pray for David and families like him, to maintain their conviction, and that the lord would reward that in this life or the next.”
