LA Dodgers should have focused on practicing baseball instead of Christophobic drag queen group

The Los Angeles Dodgers made headlines over the summer for inviting a Christophobic, so-called satirical drag queen group known as the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to one of its games during so-called “Pride Month.” The invite drew scores of critics who rightly asserted that the group was mocking and insulting Catholics under the guise of promoting LGBT issues. After a bunch of flip-flopping, the baseball team eventually hosted the group for an event this past summer.

Well, that baseball team was just swept out of this year’s playoffs, losing three straight games embarrassingly to the Arizona Diamondbacks last night. Their defeat brought an indulgence, pun intended, of schadenfreude to all who objected to the Christophobic group getting a forum at Dodgers Stadium.

Additionally, many objected to the group’s presence because of concerns over allegations of the group’s perversions. And while nothing too raunchy or taboo happened during their performance at Dodgers Stadium, the validity of these concerns was reinforced when the New York Post reported that Clinton Monroe Ellis-Gilmore, a former performer for the Sisters’ Eureka chapter, albeit not “a full-fledged member” of the group, was arrested on charges of exposing himself and masturbating “for an hour in broad daylight at a popular California park.”

Perverted acts of pledging members aside, the show never should have happened. Furthermore, it definitely would not have happened if the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence derided any other religious group, such as Jews, Muslims, or Hindus. Yet, because the target of their alleged satire was Christians, they were given a green light from the Dodgers and Major League Baseball.

But inviting the group was wrong. The Dodgers have every right to embrace so-called “Pride Month” if they choose to do so, and they can have nights that support the LGBT community. That is their right as a corporation. However, they should be able to do so without supporting a group that openly mocks a particular religion, which is the entire point of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. The group may hide under the banner of LGBT inclusion, but ultimately, it mocks, ridicules, and insults Christians because of the religion’s views on homosexuality.

Maybe next year, instead of prioritizing how to offend Christians and engage in radical left-wing cultural propaganda, the baseball team will stick to what fans want to see from them: winning baseball. This means focusing on pitching, doing a better job defensively in fielding baseballs, and improving their situational hitting with runners in scoring position instead of drag queens and Christophobic performers.
