Watch: Minnesota Vikings Kirk Cousins Supports Anti-Gay Org
Kirk Cousins is known for being the starting quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings, a staunch Christian, and now supporting a very anti-gay organization.
As reported by Outsports, Cousins recently appeared in a lengthy video for Focus On The Family. The organization opposes same-sex marriage, supports "professional therapy" (aka, conversion therapy) for sexual orientation help, and refuses to recognize transgender people.
In the video, Cousins is in a public discussion with Chief Operating Officer for Focus On The Family, Ken Windebank, talking about his faith and his commitment to traditional marriage.
"Marriage is intended by God to be a thriving, lifelong relationship between a man and a woman enduring through trials, sickness, financial crises and emotional stresses," per Focus On The Family's website. "Christians are called to affirm and proclaim God's marriage design and to minister in Christ's name to those who suffer the consequences of its brokenness."
Although Cousins doesn't come out and say he is against the LGBTQ community, his affirmation of the organization's values and believes speak volumes.
According to Outsports, both the Vikings and Cousins declined to comment about the interview.
