We are being subjected to the political indoctrination of the Roman Church; surely, we are living in the last days. Days, my beloved grandmother, never thought she’d still be alive to see. A time when, the “crimson cloaked” forces of Rome still control our country’s education.

Days of nonsense and perversions. Days, where children and grandchildren are receiving “kits” from their school teachers, teaching them how to become actively engaged in homosexual activities or how they can opt to be gay. Is this the “educational programs” the Ministry of Education plans on adopting into the Brazilian public school system, without even asking parents whether they agree or support their initiative?

They simply want to impose the dictatorship of a minority group. That’s right: the dictatorship of the minority!

We are living in a time where minorities are imposing their “values and whims” on the rest of society. There’s no other explanation. Forcing Brazilian children to learn from this supposedly educational material that encourages the practice of homosexuality and accepting this type of behavior as something normal, is without a doubt, the imposition of dictatorship by a minority. The worst part is that they’re trying to raise awareness against homophobia and discrimination against sexual preference by using illogical political fallacies.

Imagine if your son or daughter comes home from school and very innocently says that they’ve decided to assume a homosexual lifestyle after watching a video at school? How would you react? Would you calmly and pleasantly accept this situation?

Probably not! Most certainly not!

And worse: the same Ministry of Education that defends pro-homosexual books and videos is also responsible for the abysmal levels of education in our country. Did you know that Brazil shamefully falls in 88th place on the United Nations’ Human Development Index; it ranked in behind countries like Bolivia, Colombia and Paraguay?

Authorities have already imposed religious teachings into our Brazilian public school system. The Rio de Janeiro City Council, for example, just voted to hire 600 new religion teachers. These contracts will cost the public treasury more than $15 million; tax money that we are required to routinely pay.

Now, they want to impose the infamous “gay kit”.

Until when will the Vatican have control over the federal, state and local government’s actions?

Until when will 21st century Brazil continue bowing down to Rome’s “crimson cloaked”?

We must save Brazil and make it a truly secular country, completely free from religious influences.

* Note: Today, Congressman Vitor Paul, BRP – Rio de Janeiro, sent notice, on behalf of the BRP and the party that votes to block the forestry code, stating that we will not be voting for anything that’s involved with the government while the Ministry of Education does not withdraw the distribution of the gay kit. The government leader tried to pressure Congressman Vitor Paulo, but we continue to press forward with our decision.
