Fighting back against the global LGBT agenda: the resistance arises

Image
October 29, 2013 ( Public Discourse ) - On September 14, 2013, I had the privilege of attending the “ Summer University ” of the Manif pour Tous . The latter is the French grassroots movement that sprang up last year as a counterrevolution against President Hollande’s same-sex marriage law. While I had been involved in the Manif since January, it was at the September conference that I saw the larger picture of what is happening in Europe. This year I also traveled to Brussels, Strasbourg, and London for the first time, on a mission to forge a transnational alliance for children’s rights. Those who have defended marriage until now may feel beleaguered. They may be irritated with the press’s misconstruing of Pope Francis ’s multiple comments about compassion toward homosexuals. Nevertheless, Europe ought not to be cause for pessimism. On the contrary, Europe has an active underground building Defense of the Family 2.0. England and France —Carthaginian or Pyrrhic Victories for the LGBT ...

(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Hours after the French Constitutional Counsel approved the gay ‘marriage’ law, President François Hollande signed it into law together with the prime minister, the minister for Health and Social affaire, Minister of Justice Christiane Taubira, and the deputy minister for the family. Symbolically, the law, known as the “Taubira law” after Minister of Justice Taubira, who introduced it, will bear the date of May 17th, 2013: the “International Day against Homophobia.” The decision by the Constitutional Counsel to release their verdict on the law the same day as a global pro-LGBT event is being seen as a sign that the Counsel, which is supposed to play a role similar to that of the American Supreme Court in verifying that new legislation is compatible with the French Constitution, made a political and par...

France legalizes immoral homosexual marriage with growing discontent among majority

Christiane Taubira during Ségolène Royal and José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero's meeting in Toulouse on April, 19th 2007 for the 2007 presidential election. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) France has become the 14th country to legalise immoral homosexual marriage , with president Francois Hollande signing it into law following months of bitter political debate and huge ongoing protests. Mr Hollande acted a day after the Constitutional Council threw out a legal challenge by the opposition, which had been the last obstacle to passing the bill into law. However, he has underestimated the community resistance and anger to this legislation. Unfortunately, the legislation also legalises gay adoption . This is a dangerous social experiment with future social repercussions. Ignoring the growing anger in the community, french justice minister Christiane Taubira , steered the legislation through parliament, said the first homosexual marriages could be celebrated as early as June. But opponent...

People of France so NO to Homosexual Immoral Marriage

Image
 Last weekend a number of major French cities held new rallies against same-sex ‘marriage’ that, despite the Spring vacation, attracted many thousands of participants. Organizers of “La Manif pour tous” ( Demonstration for all) claim 35,000 demonstrators in Paris , 20,000 in Lyons, 20,000 in Rennes , and thousands more in Lille, Toulouse, Strasbourg, Dijon and many smaller towns. This is the fourth major rendezvous since November 17th, not counting numberless local demonstrations in Paris and the provinces that marked every stage of the legislative procedure. On April 12th the National Assembly passed the definitive language of the “ Taubira Law ,” named after French justice minister Christiane Taubira who introduced the bill in the name of François Hollande’s socialist government. But opponents have promised: “We’ll never give up, never, never, never!” Hopes are not high regarding the Constitutional Court’s decision, which is expected to give the law the green light. We...

France passes immoral homosexual ‘marriage’ and divides the nation

Image
April 23, 2013 - The French National Assembly voted for the text legalizing same-sex “marriage” and adoption by 331 votes against 225 on Tuesday afternoon . The Socialists were joined by the Greens, the Communist party and the Radicals and other leftwing groups, but also by Centrists and two members of the opposition UMP (ex- president Sarkozy ’s party), in adopting what Christiane Taubira , the French Justice minister, called a “change of civilization.” A handful of Socialists, Communists and Radicals voted against. Seconds after voting most of the opposition members left the chamber while the majority of the Left gave a standing ovation to the law. Clapping in rhythm, they chanted: “Equality, equality!”  A few minutes before the vote, the Assembly’s socialist president, Claude Bartolone , had reacted angrily to a move by the public in the galleries, when two young men started to unfurl a white banner with the word “Referendum.” “Get those enemies of democracy out of he...

French Assembly to vote on gay ‘marriage’ Tuesday: spontaneous protests growing

Image
Not a day has passed since the French Senate adopted the law legalizing same-sex “marriage,” on Friday, April 12th, without vigorous protests in many towns in France. At least 150,000 demonstrators took to the streets once again in Paris on Sunday (40,000, say official police figures, 270,000 according to the “Manif pour tous”, the “ Demonstration for all” which is opposing “marriage for all”). This was the fourth major rally in Paris since November 18th, when 300,000 people joined, and those organized on January 13th and March 24th which attracted approximately a million and a million and a half demonstrators, respectively. Last Sunday’s event was a “minor” affair, aimed only at Paris and its region, organized at a few days’ notice in preparation of Tuesday’s formal and public vote at the National Assembly which is expected to adopt the legislation in the same terms as the Senate, completing the accelerated legislative procedure devised by François Hollande’s socialist gover...

Amended same-sex marriage law passed in French Senate today to be rammed through Assembly next week

Image
PARIS, April 12, 2013 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) - The French Senate gave final approval this morning to legislation permitting same-sex couples to “marry” and adopt children. Several amendments were made to the text approved by the National Assembly in February, making a second reading necessary in the National Assembly. Only hours after the vote, the government unexpectedly announced that the legislation will return to the Assembly next Wednesday, five weeks before the intended schedule. It is considered likely that only limited time will be allowed for discussion of the text and the government is apparently hoping that the amended articles will be passed without further changes, making subsequent legislative procedures unnecessary. French Senate The law’s main articles legalizing same-sex “marriage” and adoption were passed earlier this week by the Senate exactly as worded by the National Assembly, and will most probably not even be discussed during the second reading.
