Just when I was wondering when I would find something appropriate for my next post, \u201cThe Stoopid\u2026It Hurts!\u201d it was provided for me by one Rabbi Eliyahu Abergil.\u00a0 He has issued a p\u2019sak halakha<\/i> (Jewish legal ruling) that it is forbidden to listen to gay and lesbian musicians:<\/p>\n

As reported in Maariv NRG<\/a>:<\/p>\n

In his ruling, he states unequivocally that \u201cthere is an absolute prohibition on hearing or playing the music of gay or lesbian musicians because they pass along messages that will ruin youth and influence them to behave as they do.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2026He further added that \u201c\u2026.Nothing good comes from them.\u00a0 Their behavior comes from their sexual problems.\u00a0 All they have to give our innocent children are negative and dangerous messages.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This same rabbi previously ruled that women were prohibited from wearing the color red because it was licentious.\u00a0 What a sicko.<\/p>\n

He could be right about the gay music, though.\u00a0 I\u2019ve always thought Elton John had hidden secret pro-gay messages in Hakuna Matata<\/i>.\u00a0 Or was it\u00a0Crocodile Rock<\/i>?\u00a0<\/i>\u00a0Either way.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
