Traditions are often fun or bring about that familiar feeling of security, customs or beliefs we enjoy.
One of ours is cooking turkey, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole and Apple/Cranberry Dish or as we call it “Bob’s Apple-Cranberry Casserole.” (Bob is Mark’s father) on Thanksgiving morning.
The whiffs of turkey basting or aromas of pecan pie fill the house as we catch the “thieves” who claim to be “legitimate taste testers” of all things fowl.
In between the fights of who is in the way in the kitchen, we catch glimpses of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade in New York.
Watching the parade for as many years as I can remember, the 2013 event celebrated 87 years.
I wonder what the first Macy’s parade executives, directors and or Event coordinators would think of the sexually explicit, distasteful and provocative dance at around 10AM in the morning of “Kinky Boots?”
Mark and I were taking a break from the kitchen when this display from an award winning musical was performed on national television. We both became quiet as we observed numerous “drag queens” in barely “nothings” but mostly boots dancing and singing in front of millions of onlookers including children.
While the shock set in, we both agreed how despicable the presentation was and very glad we had no children to explain why men were dressed like women in skimpy clothes.
As if that wasn’t enough to ruin our turkey, Matt Lauer and his co-host Samantha Guthrie actually gushed over the sickening performance.
Evidently we are 2 of many who are outraged over this representation of what America is NOT. The Huffington Post reported numbers of complaints along with an explanation of how the “right wingers” expressed their disapproval. Also the article made reference to the “message of tolerance and acceptance while it was too cold to show much skin.”

Hogwash.
If you watched this “presentation of tolerance and acceptance” and were as repulsed as we were, please click on the link below and let the organizers know how you felt about this display of anti-Biblical perversion.
And then pray for our nation to repent.

1 Corinthian 6:9: “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind.”
