Christian Hate Group Denounces Parents Magazine for Putting Gay Couple on Cover
By Hemant Mehta, January 18, 2019

A conservative Christian group is furious that Parents magazine features a gay couple on its latest cover because they look happy and normal and NOT DEVIANT IN THE LEAST. That image goes against the bigotry that groups like One Million Moms (Twitter followers: 3,600) want to spread.

The Christian group put out this press release condemning the cover:

Parents is using its magazine as a platform to promote the pro-homosexual lifestyle. Even if families do not personally subscribe to the publication, they should be warned that it could be displayed in waiting rooms of dentist and doctor offices, where children could easily be subjected to the glorification of same-sex parents.

This agenda will be a deal breaker for most conservative families, so, with this information, many of our supporters and families may choose to cancel their subscription to Parents. After all, most conservative and Christian families will disagree morally with the magazine’s decision, and subsequently, will not want to support its content.


If your family is traumatized by seeing this cover, then you have a shitty family. It’s that simple.
