Brazilian legislators and the general public have had enough of the blasphemous conduct of gay pride parade participants and are advancing new law that will make it a felony to desecrate and/or profane Christian images during their activities.

LifeSiteNews.com is reporting on what we can only hope will become a global trend toward protecting Christianity from the unabashed public hatred of gay activists. Brazilians have become incensed lately by a recent series of outrageous displays of public blasphemy by the LGBT community.

They are particularly upset about a male-to-female transsexual named Viviany Beleboni who was portrayed naked on a cross in this year’s Sao Paulo parade while carrying a sign that read: “Enough of homophobia.”

The Brazilian media and social networking sites have also been circulating images of Christian images being desecrated at parades, nude men smashing sacred images on the ground, and a transsexual performing a lewd strip-tease in front of a church.

Thankfully, lawmakers in Brazil aren’t afraid of the PC police.

Rogério Rosso, who represents the nation’s federal district in the House of Deputies, has proposed a new law prohibiting such displays and imposing fines and up to eight years in prison for perpetrators.

“The intention of the bill is to protect the beliefs and objects used in religious rituals by Brazilian citizens, because what has been happening in recent years during demonstrations, particularly those of LGBTs, is what we can call ‘Christophobia,’ with the practice of obscene and degrading acts which show prejudice against Catholics and Evangelicals,” the bill states.

Another lawmaker, Senator Magno Malta, “denounced the government-funded parades for going ‘outside the boundaries’ of proper discourse, sowing ‘intolerance and disrespect for religious liberty’,” LifeSite reports.

Malta has asked federal prosecutors to begin a criminal investigation of the behavior at this year's parade.

Federal Deputy Marco Feliciano, whose site was hacked and disabled by gay activists on the day of the march, responded with outrage and threats of criminal prosecution.

“I’m indignant at what happened in the Gay Parade in Sao Paulo, because they used symbols of, my faith – which is the Christian faith – exposed publicly in an act of complete lack of respect. I’m talking about people who think that their rights are greater than my rights, who think that they can take my Christ, the cross of my Christ, or everything that has to do with my Christ, and expose it in the street, in the middle of the filth.”

Even soccer star Leo Moura weighed in on the matter on his Facebook page: “How sad it is to see this image! What does Jesus have to do with this? What mockery! What lack of respect, my God!”

The LGBT community and its activists should be worried because the proposed legislation will effectively reverse the penalties sought by homosexuals against Christians who express their rejection of the homosexual lifestyle and will instead apply them to homosexuals – and anyone else – who desecrates sacred images.

It’s high time our own lawmakers get themselves a backbone and instead of protecting the rights of the LGBT community at the expense of everyone else’s, start crafting similar laws that give us all the equal protection we deserve.
