An open letter to the Pearl Theater

Dear Pearl Theater board directors: Heather Olson, Becky Revak, Serafina Dwyer, Jessica Tingley, Mike Weland, and Carolyn Birrell.

I write[1] asking you to cancel the ‘Gay Pride’ event at the Pearl Theater.  The Pearl’s objective as a nonprofit “is to foster and develop the artistic talents and skills of community members of all ages, to serve as an outreach to encourage and facilitate social activities, and to nurture excellence in the performing arts…”

The event has little to do with art, artistic talents or activities that promote what is good and right in our community. The ‘gay pride’ agenda is a national in-your-face parade of ignominy. Their aggressive actions demonstrate the ‘pride’ agenda is at war with our heritage and community.

The historic Pearl Theater was built for and is long used in the worship of God.  The one book that directed that worship is the Bible which is the foundational document of what is good and just and what is not.  Darkness dominates the world without this standard.  We are ‘endowed by our Creator with inalienable rights’ which emanate from no other source; no right exists to steal, rape, rob, pillage, murder or promote the LBGT+ agenda. For men or women to claim to be transgender or 100-plus genders is a lie, the abandonment of truth. By hosting this GPe, you become a promoter of the LBGTQ+ agenda.

Please cancel this event. If you fail to do so, the good people of this community will be encouraged to boycott the Pearl Theater and its sponsors. 

Thank you for your consideration.
