And now for something completely different...

How is it that the mayor of a foreign capitol city gets it and we in this nation do not? Moscow, located in Russia, is in a vastly secular, atheist country. Russia was not always so, but since the Bolshevik revolution in 1917, they have been largely secularist.

We in this country have a rich heritage of spiritual and moral values. Yet, abominable "gay pride" parades have become acceptable. The mayor of Moscow has called their "gay pride" parade Satanic. And he is correct. It is amazing how far we have strayed in allowing hedonism to prevail over morality.

Here is the article link. Below are a few paragraphs. I never thought that I would support Russian over US policy, but here I am doing it.

Moscow Mayor Yury Luzhkov said Monday he would never allow a gay parade to take place in Moscow despite pressure from the West, Russia’s RIA-Novosti news agency reports.

"Last year, Moscow came under unprecedented pressure to sanction the gay parade, which can be described in no other way than as Satanic," Luzhkov said at the 15th Christmas educational readings in the Kremlin Palace.

"We did not let the parade take place then, and we are not going to allow it in the future," said Luzhkov who has been in office since 1992.
