BRUSSELS (ChurchMilitant.com) - Brussels is getting backlash from Poland for flying a gay flag outside of the European Parliament.
On Thursday, a rainbow flag was hoisted up in front of the building for the first time in its history, marking "International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia."
Despite outcry from Polish conservatives, the European Union said, "Regrettably, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) persons in Europe are still subject to serious discrimination and maltreatment on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender identity."
Ryszard Legutko, co-chairman of the European Conservatives and Reformists group, said in a letter to the European Parliament that Thursday's initiative displayed "just one lobby group."
He questioned why the Parliament would not promote other unofficial "international days" like those celebrating museums, beer or students.
Since 1990, May 17 has been remembered as the anniversary of the removal of homosexuality from the International Classification of Diseases of the World Health Organization.
But Legutko blasted the display of a rainbow flag, saying it endorses a "moral revolution" that privileges same-sex couples. There are "practically no ... attacks" on those with same-sex attraction, Legutko emphasized.

This didn't stop the European Commission and European External Action Service, also in Brussels, from illuminating its headquarters with the colors of the gay flag.
Frans Timmermans, vice president of the European Commission, said, "It's time we put an end to the widespread discrimination against LGBTI people together."
However, Legutko instead recommended hoisting a flag with a fish — a symbol of Christianity — to symbolize the millions of Christians suffering persecution worldwide.

Many of us are sick and tired of politicians kissing the asses of queers! Resurrect the law that outlaws homosexual acts and proselytizing today's thoroughly confused youth. The belong hidden under a rock.
Widespread LGBTQI discrimination? Where? When? By whom? If it happens there must have been major stories in the press. But nothing.
Instead what I see are Christians being slaughtered and persecuted by the thousands over the last 20 years and not a word from the atheistic marxists in Brussels, London, Berlin, Paris.
In that case you are a fool. Homosexuals father or give birth to children every day,and have done so since the dawn of time.
Not so much any more unless they're rich and hire a surrogate mother.
The bigger thing now is two gay guys raising an adopted Chinese baby girl somewhere in the suburbs.
Hardly any gay guys bother to get married and pretend to be straight any more.
With gays absenting themselves from the gene pool more than they ever have, you have to wonder if we'll see a result from this. If gaiety tends to run in families (for whatever reason), there should be a lot fewer gays in 20-30 years as a result.

Only if you live in a yuppie community like Hollywood,NYC,Bridgeport,etc,etc,etc.
The majority of children born to homosexuals are born to married male and female parents,and are usually the result of at least one partner being bi-sexual,in the closet due to guilt feelings,and trying to "pass" as what we all laughingly call "normal".

You're living in the past.
Really? Some super creature somewhere has developed a new and improved Mark 5 human?
