Rafael Cruz: Gays Want To Legalize Pedophilia [VIDEO]

The World Congress of Families hate convention opened today in Salt Lake City and the crackpot insanity is flowing. J. Lester Feder reports at Buzzfeed:



LGBT activists’ next goal is legalizing pedophilia, Pastor Rafael Cruz — father of Republican senator and presidential candidate Ted Cruz — told BuzzFeed News on Wednesday. “I think that’s the next thing that they’re going to push, to try to legalize pedophiles,” Cruz said. “Pedophilia, you have all these laws to forget about — we have laws on the books about statutory rape. You have to basically throw away the statutory rape laws to legalize pedophilia.”

Cruz spoke with BuzzFeed News following a plenary panel on “Marriage and the Family” at the ninth World Congress of Families, a global summit bringing together social conservative activists held this year in Salt Lake City. Cruz’s official biography describes him as the director of Purifying Fire Ministries, a professor of “Bible and Theology,” and the president of Kingdom Translation Services.

A member of the audience asked Cruz about the link between LGBT rights and pedophilia during the question and answer period. “Can you comment or include in your presentation the damage that is being done by the LGBT and what they have done to partner with the pedophilia and the 3 million children a year that are victimized by them?” asked the man, who identified himself as Pastor Martin of Dayton, Ohio, with a group called Protect the Innocents. Cruz responded by warning of what he said was the danger of nondiscrimination laws such as one enacted in Houston in 2014. Opponents succeeded in getting it put to voters in a referendum which will be held next Tuesday.
