Friends of ours at Backwater Foie Gras in Southeastern Louisiana are catching flack for daring to celebrate the Sacred Heart in June as opposed to the Death Cult of the State’s official celebration of Pride.

In an Instagram post Sunday, Ross McKnight, owner of the farm encouraged people to celebrate the Sacred Heart of Jesus in June as an antidote to “false pride”:

As a result, two of his largest clients—restaurants in New Orleans—canceled their orders. “…we received two texts from two restaurant owners who have decided that they’ve had enough of our Catholicism based on our latest Instagram feed post and have cancelled their large, recurring orders,” McKnight wrote.

And several followers lashed out with their online protests: “lol enjoy your meaningless cult of hate and exclusion. You are heavily misguided,” and, “All you have spoken is hate, it has nothing to do with truth. I hope for your children’s sake you are able to change your heart and accept all people the way that God made them. Gay is not a sin, it is seen in all aspects of nature. God doesn’t make mistakes.”

“While we’ve never required our customers to pass a litmus test before serving them, it seems our values, which come from lives lived as Louisiana Catholics, are considered unacceptable by some.”

Thankfully, the community has stepped up.

“We have already seen Divine Providence working through all of this, and we have already seen that business we lost by rejecting pride beginning to be restored – in no small part by fellow Catholics who have reached out to support us and to share in the great victory that it is to suffer for and with Christ the King. I have also received communications from a very well-known chef who wants to buy as much as we can provide,” McKnight wrote.

If you are able, please support Backwater by donating to their GiveSendGo, purchasing their excellent meat and eggs on their store, or joining their PMA. Also, in these trying times, be sure to support all the companies near you who dare to promote the faith as opposed to sin.
