Rafael Cruz: LGBT rights and evolution are communist brainwashing lies to kill God

Rafael should know since he was a supporter of Castro.

Rafael Cruz, the father of tea party-backed Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), has warned Americans that equal rights for LGBT people and the theory of evolution are essentially communist lies that are being used by the American government to destroy the family and control the population.

In a June presentation to the Dean Bible Ministries Men’s Prayer Breakfast, Cruz encouraged attendees to become part of the political process.

“You know, communism or socialism, whatever you want to call it, what is happening in this country is not different than what happened in Cuba,” he explained. “It is about government control of your lives. You got to realize how Marxist, how socialism works… When you hear all these things about homosexual marriage, this has nothing to do with homosexual rights. Did you know that?”

“The whole objective is the destruction of the traditional family, it has nothing to do with homosexuals, they could care less about homosexuals, they want to destroy the family,” Cruz added.

The Republican senator’s father went on to say that marriage equality was “just like evolution.”

7. Why? Because the VAST proportion of the GOP delegation thinks exactly like him.

I call them two completely different things and neither have anything to do with MY sexuality. At least he knows that Marx is related to socialism.
