Religious Figures In Honduras Don’t want Ricky Martin there ‘cause he is gay

ricky_martin Ricky Martin’s tour to the Central American nation of Honduras has angered Catholic and evangelical leaders who have asked the government to bar his entry because he’s a gay dad.
Honduras Minister of Interior, Áfrico Madrid, told local newspaper El Heraldo that the religious leaders have solicited that he deny a visa to Martin in order to “protect the moral and ethical principles of our society”.
The pop star, who has twin boys, is set to perform in the country on October 16 as part of his Música + Alma + Sexo (MAS) tour.
Madrid claims that the religious leaders particularly object to Martin’s non-traditional family.
“His nuclear family is not the type of family that Honduran society, and laws, approve of.”

Ricky Martin's request for a Honduran visa is being challenged by an ecumenical group of religious leaders who say the singer sets a bad moral example for the country's youth, Honduran daily El Heraldo reported.
Church leaders are reportedly demanding that the Honduran government deny a visa to Martin, who is set to perform in the country on October 16 at the Chochi Sosa stadium in Tegucigalpa, Honduras as part of his Musica+Alma+Sexo (MAS) worldwide tour.
Africo Madrid, the minister of interior of Honduras, told the paper that Evangelical and Catholic leaders argue that Martin's nuclear family “is not the type of family that the laws of Honduras and the Honduran society wants to build and encourage to young people and the rest of the population.”
The officials must act to “protect the moral and ethical principles of our society,” Madrid added.
Martin came out gay last year on his blog – writing that he was “a fortunate homosexual man” – and subsequently talked about his experience in his memoirMe. The 39-year-old Martin lives with his boyfriend Carlos Gonzalez and his twin sons Mateo and Valentino.
The Honduran secretary of state's office has denied receiving any requests to deny Martin entry into the country.
