Diocese of Niagara: “Jesus had two Dads and he turned out just fine”

A Diocese of Niagara parish, St. John the Evangelist in Niagara Falls, is displaying the following billboard:

reddit-church-signThe idea is hard to miss: there is nothing wrong with a same-sex couple being parents.

The billboard doesn’t get into any tricky details such as the fact that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and a woman not two men. Or that the liberal clergy who occupy the Diocese of Niagara delight in calling the third person of the Trinity “she” when it suits them – why not two Mums on the sign? Or that, while they are not busy calling the Holy Spirit “she”, liberal clergy are studiously engaged on expunging all references to God as “he” from liturgies and hymn books because, as they keep telling us, God is genderless. Or that Jesus was raised by a man and a woman, not two Dads. Or that two men can’t conceive, try as they might. Or that a majority of Niagara clerics don’t even believe in the Virgin Birth. I know: picky picky picky.

You will notice that the photographer was leaning heavily to the left when he took the photograph.

A church billboard that affirms homosexuality has gone viral. After Reddit user Reeb0k posted a photo of the sign online, it quickly gained hundreds of thousands of views. The controversial text on the placard reads, “Jesus had two dads and he turned out just fine.”

Not much information is provided along with the picture, but the sign on which it appears belongs to a “St. John’s Anglican Church.” According to the Reddit user, the house of worship is in his home city, but the name of that city isn’t mentioned in the post.

In addition to the pro-gay message, a portion of the church’s address is present on the sign (the number “3428″ appears). After a quick web search, TheBlaze discovered that the church is located in Niagara Falls, Ontario, in Canada.

In an effort to confirm that the sign is, indeed, posted, we called the church office and phoned the Rev. Duncan Lyon, a member of the St. John’s clergy. His wife answered the phone and confirmed that the pro-gay message is posted outside of the church.

When we asked for more information about the motivation behind it, she referred us back to the church office, adding, “I’m sure you can sort it out yourself.”

  1. Actually Jesus also had a mother. There’s nothing in the Bible that says God and Joseph were ever in a physical relationship.

    • The Holy Bible does state that Joseph did not have sex with Mary throughout her pregnancy. This obviously justifies the Christian belief in the Virgin Birth. But it also suggests that their marriage was consummated afterwards. Additionally, (if memory serves) the Apostle James (“the lessor”) is referred to as the brother of Jesus, thereby giving us the reformist understanding that she is the Blessed Virgin Mary, and not as the Roman Catholics say the “Blessed Ever Virgin Mary”.

  2. This message is supposed to be cheeky and irreverant. It isn’t funny, nor is it insightful. Lastly,what is really going on, it treats Jesus in an overly familiar way. And that is the rampant sin in Canadian Anglicanism. Treating holy matters in an overly familiar way. These liberal Christians don’t understand there is a future judgment. Perhaps we should pity them

  3. Obviously this group has completely forgotten the facts. Or is it that they have deliberately distorted God’s Truth in order to fabricate something they want to believe?

  4. As He Himself did say,there is one father He did not have:
    + John 8:44.
    Any or all who re-define Jesus’ Infallible WORD-based definition of marriage, alas,
    are claiming that paternity.
