Armband War


For some time now the English FA have been pushing 'Pride' down the throats of English football.  This comes not for concern or support for gay individuals but for a concern to keep their jobs and avoid controversy caused by a gay backlash.  The desire to keep in with the worlds opinion being more important than truth and doing the right thing.
'Rainbow Laces,' is a 'Stonewall' idea to propagate gay life through football, they idea being we are all normal and everyone is accepted.  The truth however, is that most people accept all others at football, few knowing what abnormal behaviour their neighbours indulge themselves in.  So why does the English FA tolerate this?  They tolerate this to avoid loud minorities objecting to their opinion and causing trouble for themselves.  
Captains of English football teams have been given by the English FA 'rainbow' armbands to wear at games, the armband used today to indicate he alone is captain and therefore allowed to confer with referees over decisions.  There was a clear note that individuals could refuse for reasons of conscience, the English FA being well aware of the number of Muslim and Christians playing in the top division from Africa and elsewhere.  One man, the Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi, wrote "I 💓Jesus" upon his armband, and has drawn the ire of the English FA officials for this.  
Now, football authorities everywhere do not allow religious or political messages to be displayed on players shirts, or indeed armbands, and 'words of advice' are to be given Guehi for this.  Refusal to accept such words could lead to him being banned, or his club getting into bother.  Ipswich's Sam Morsy did not wear the armband, he is a Muslim, and he avoids trouble because of his Muslim faith.  Individual choice is allowed and such individual choice also hampered Manchester United at the weekend.  The players were given shirts promoting LGBT and one Muslim player, rightly, refused to wear this.  His teammates therefore also turned it down to avoid him standing out and gaining controversy.  How ridiculous a situation!  You cannot promote Jesus but you can promote abnormal sexuality and on  football shirt!  How many of these would be sold in Indonesia or the middle East I wonder?
Guehi, the Crystal Palace captain is to be told off for standing up for Jesus while 'Rainbow laces' is forced upon football to promote 'Stonewall?'?  Guehi's father John, who ministers to a South London church, supported his son.  They play 'God save the King' at international matches which mentions God, and 'Abide with me' before the English cup final yet they have a go at my son?  
What we see here is the English FA supporting a political organisation, 'Stonewall,' in its propagation of gay life, yet opposing a religious message.  Both political and religious are barred, yet one is acceptable and another is not.  
This from an organisation that allows men to play women's football, in spite of the injuries to opposing women, and bars Jesus from the armband.  How mixed up can they be?
What we have here is yet another reflection on the mixed up nation we now inhabit.  By failing to follow Gods way we support perversion and oppose what is right.  We lose the sense of 'right and wrong' to follow a moral code that changes day by day, all dependant on the loudest voice.  What we see today has been coming for some time, and what we will see in the future will be accepted by many, partly because they are scared to stand up for what is right, partly because we are all numbed by such behaviour.  Our personal moral code changes too often also.
