Moscow Mayor Calls Gay Pride Parade Satanic
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.

<snip>

This is the second time Moscow authorities have banned a gay parade in Moscow. On May 26, 2006, a Moscow district court upheld a Moscow government resolution prohibiting a gay march, which was scheduled for the next day, as opposition to the planned event was strong in Russia, especially from the Russian Orthodox Church and other religious leaders.

Despite the ban, about 200 people took to the streets May 27 in an unsanctioned demonstration to mark the 13th anniversary of the decriminalization of homosexuality in Russia.

The attempt resulted in violent clashes between sexual minorities and their opponents — representatives of a number of political parties, religious and radical movements — and the detention of some 120 people from both sides, most of whom were later released.

1. Remember kids! The same sound for the word "God" in Russian is a nasty word for a gay in Swedish!

6. yes, it's the devil's work to let people decide what to do with
their own gonads.

To them, Satan is anyone who questions their divine authority; they have their "lord" and anyone who doesn't step in line and grovel must therefore be evil.

Goatherder religion for goatherder imbeciles. Small wonder that they're having trouble adjusting to the 21st century. My souffle fell last weekend after I commanded it in the lowerds name to rise. It was the devil at work you know. I'm sure some apocryphal prophet fortold the catastrophic collapse of my souffle in a dead sea scroll and all the divine entities just played out their part, because, you know, they didn't have anything better to do.

Or possibly it was because my beloved R opened the oven when I wasn't looking to see what was baking. I live with Satan! :scared:

Seriously! Allowing people to make decisions about their own lives is satanic? What a moran.
