ACCEPTANCE OF HOMOSEXUALITY BEHIND RISE OF ISIS

Patriarch Kirill, head of the Russian Orthodox Church, says Muslims are joining ISIS in flight from the ‘Godless’West’s Gay Pride events

Aha, contrary to what the Republican presidential candidates have been saying, President Obama and Hillary Clinton are not to blame for the rise of ISIS.

The Independent reports that Patriarch Kirill, head of the Russian Orthodox Church, says the rise of ISIS is because a ”Godless” world has accepted homosexuality. The Patriarch says Muslims are fleeing Western countries and joining the Caliphate because of gay pride events.

My bad! I agreed with Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and the other Republican candidates that Obama and Hillary were to blame for the rise of ISIS. Now I find out that it’s really those damn Gays.

Come to think of it though, Muslims aren’t the only ones that have fled Gay Pride events. My friends and I fled those early Gay Pride parades in San Francisco. We couldn’t stand watching a bunch of naked men cavorting around on top of the parade floats.

HEAD OF RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH BLAMES THE RISE OF ISIS ON THE ‘GODLESS’ WORLD’S ACCEPTANCE OF HOMOSEXUALITY
Patriarch Kirill claimed he was not surprised that 'honest' Muslims are flocking to Isis' quasi-religious state

The head of the Russian Orthodox Church has partially blamed an increased acceptance of homosexuality for the rise of Isis.

Patriarch Kirill claimed he was not surprised that some Muslims are flocking to Isis' quasi-religious state as a way of escaping the “godless civilization” that celebrates events such as Gay Pride.

In an interview published on the Church’s official website, Kirill said: “[Isis] is creating a civilization that is new by comparison to the established one that is godless, secular and even radical in its secularism.”

“We can have parades for the sexual minorities - that is supported - but a million French Christian protestors defending family values are broken up by police,” he added.

Kiril said because the “godless civilization is reaching maturity”, it should come as no surprise that those who are opposed to liberal, secular ideas end up joining terror organisations.

“If you call non-traditional relationships a sin, as the Bible teaches and you are a priest or pastor, then you risk not only your ability to serve but you may be sent to prison,” he said.

“I could offer more simply frightening examples of how the godless civilization is growing yet here they are drawing attention to young people being converted by extremists,” he added.

“Look how they [the West] build the world – an unholy world - but we invite you to build God’s world…And they [Isis supporters] respond to that; it is for this they give their lives,” he added.

Kiril also appeared to controversially support Isis’ widely dismissed self-declaration of an Islamic caliphate by claiming that many who have flocked to live under the terror group are “honest” people who did so on “truly religious grounds”.

“You become a fighter for the Caliphate. So what’s a Caliphate?,” he said. “It is a society centered around faith and God where people follow religious laws,” he added.

Kiril’s comments are not the first time he has voiced public opposition to homosexuality. In August 2013 he declared same sex marriage to be a sign of the impending Apocalypse and urged people to do more to combat the rise of gay rights.

“This is a very dangerous apocalyptic symptom, and we must do everything in our powers to ensure that sin is never sanctioned in Russia by state law, because that would mean that the nation has embarked on a path of self-destruction,“ Christian Post quoted him as saying.

“We face enormous temptations when countries start approving sin and codifying it into law in order to justify it,” he added.
