A Christian conservative group has
condemned President Barack Obama for holding a White House reception
marking LGBT Pride Month.
At the reception, Obama reiterated his
support for gay marriage and passage of the Employment
Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), which would prohibit workplace
discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. But
the president was criticized for keeping mum on an executive order
which would prohibit such discrimination by federal contractors –
something gay rights activists have been calling on the president to
sign for several years.
Government is Not God PAC warned in a
statement that the president's “goal of normalizing homosexuality
in America” will not go unpunished.
“President Barack Hussein Obama and
Vice President Joe Biden spent last Thursday celebrating 'gay pride'
at a White House ceremony – a ceremony that included two young twin
girls who are being 'parented' by two lesbians,” the
group wrote.
“In a special video on LGBT Gay Pride
Month, Obama praised 'gay' leaders who had 'bent the arc of the moral
universe towards justice.' That's a clever way of saying they have
turned morality upside down and violated God's moral laws in pushing
for the normalization of homosexual sex acts.”
“Obama, who claims to be a Christian,
might want to read Romans 1:18-31.”
“And, he might want to read [what]
the Lord Jesus Christ said about those who defile children: 'But
whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it
were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and
that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.” (Matthew 18:6.)
