The people who believe that children should be raised by a father and a mother are
now called "bigots". The people who believe that homosexuality is a sin are now facing
a flood of Hollywood propaganda,
and their children are being taught to
accept homosexuality as normal in the public schools.
Homosexual activism is one of the main components in any discussion
of our rapidly deteriorating American culture. Until 1973, homosexuality was on the
American Psychiatric Association's list of mental
disorders.* (Has
psychiatry changed, or it is merely a reflection of the modern political climate?)
To make this page load more quickly, the information about same-sex marriage, and the proposed Constitutional
Amendment to define marriage as the union of one man and one woman, excluding all other combinations, has
been moved to this page.
Science Does Not
Support the Claim That Homosexuality Is Genetic. Americans for too long have been pummeled with the idea that
people are "born gay." The people who most need to hear the truth are those who mistakenly believe they have no chance
themselves for change. It is both more compassionate and truthful to give them hope than to serve them up politically
motivated, unproven creations like the "gay gene."
The Corporate
Curtain. America's corporations are under increasing pressure not only to accommodate homosexuality but to
celebrate it and to punish employees who object. Over the past two decades, hundreds of companies have adopted varying
degrees of homosexual activism in their official policies. As a result, a growing number of Christians have been
disciplined or fired for resisting the trend.
Google
Raises Eyebrows With New Gay-Only Employee Benefit. A new Google policy is raising some
eyebrows after the company revealed it will be compensating employees for taxes paid on domestic
partners' health benefits — but only if they're gay.
Augusta
State University to student: Accept homosexuality or leave school. An Augusta State
University counseling student has filed a lawsuit against her school claiming it violated her First
Amendment rights when it told her to change her traditionalist Christian views on homosexuality or
get out.
Court:
Student Can be Expelled for Christian Beliefs. A federal judge ruled in favor of a public university
who removed a Christian student over her belief that homosexuality is morally wrong. The decision, according
to Julea Ward's attorneys, could result in Christian students across the country being expelled from public
university for similar views.
Court
Upholds Expulsion of Counseling Student Who Opposes Homosexuality. A federal judge has ruled
in favor of a public university that removed a Christian student from its graduate program in school counseling
over her belief that homosexuality is morally wrong. Monday's [7/26/2010] ruling, according to Julea Ward's attorneys,
could result in Christian students across the country being expelled from public university for similar views.
Military Homosexual
Scandal Tied to WikiLeaks Treason. In the scandal involving the theft and release of classified military information that could cost the
lives of U.S. military personnel, the British Telegraph newspaper is reporting that the American soldier at the
center of the scandal was "openly homosexual" and apparently held a grudge against the U.S. because of the
military's anti-gay policy.
The
fragmenting of American society. The divergence in opinion about the Employment
Nondiscrimination Act being considered by Congress, illustrates a deep and widening divide in
the beliefs of the American public. Homosexual rights advocates promote the act as necessary to
protect homosexual and transgender persons from employment discrimination. The U.S. Conference of
Catholic Bishops and other religious groups state that it would jeopardize religious freedom, have an
adverse effect on the privacy and associational rights of others and lead to the redefinition of
marriage. Such polar differences, which occur on many national issues, threaten the social
compact underlying America.
The 'Bring Back the Draft'
Act. As early as this week, the United States Senate may turn to the annual legislation known as "The
National Defense Authorization Act" (NDAA) that is supposed to provide the Pentagon what it needs to defend our
nation. Unfortunately, thanks to an amendment added in the Senate Armed Services Committee that would impose
the radical homosexual agenda on the U.S. military, a more appropriate title for this bill would be "The Bring
Back the Draft Act."
Obama
Administration to Expand Family Medical Leave Act to Gay and Lesbian Employees. The Labor
Department is poised to announce new regulations this week that order U.S. employers to give gay employees
equal treatment under the law, allowing those workers unpaid time off under the Family and Medical Leave
Act. Critics say the Obama administration is going too far. "They're trying to redefine marriage
and family by these arbitrary policies with no debate by congress, no public discussion about it," says
Carrie Gordon Earll of Focus on the Family.
Hillary Clinton Urges State Department Employees to
Let Teens Know It's Okay to Be Homosexual. At an event celebrating Gay Pride Month on Tuesday,
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton encouraged State Department employees to let teenagers know homosexuality
is okay. ... Clinton's remarks are part of a high-profile campaign by the Obama administration to mark Gay
Pride Month with gatherings at various federal agencies, including the State Department on Tuesday.
The Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have held similar events.
Lesbian Mothers
Think Their Children Are All Above Average. The National Longitudinal Lesbian Family Study
(NLLFS), just published in the online edition of the Journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)
and funded by the Gill Foundation and the Lesbian Health Fund of the Gay Lesbian Medical Association,
claims that children of lesbian mothers do better than children from a married-mom-and-dad family. ... The
"study" is neither objective nor comprehensive. ... The "research" consists of the mothers' opinions
about their own children...
State Dept. Changes Passport Policy to Accomodate
People Who Change Gender. The U.S. State Department is marking lesbian, gay, bisexual,
transgender "Pride Month" by changing its policy concerning gender change on passports and consular reports
of birth abroad. As of June 10, the State Department no longer requires that individuals provide
proof that they have had sex reassignment surgery, but only requires certification from an "attending
physician" that the individual received "appropriate clinical treatment for gender transition," which
may or may not include surgery.
Hmmm... The State
Department. Who's running the State Department these days? Oh,
yes. I remember now.
University
of Illinois Instructor Fired Over Catholic Beliefs. The University of Illinois has fired an
adjunct professor who taught courses on Catholicism after a student accused the instructor of engaging in
hate speech by saying he agrees with the church's teaching that homosexual sex is immoral.
The
Potential Dangers of Repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" Cannot Be Ignored. Leftists routinely
lament America's lack of frank conversation about contentious cultural issues, but whenever the opportunity
to begin such discussions arise, conservative views are not engaged, but lazily dismissed as "desperate
attempts to distract the public" and "ugly political shouting match[es]."
Obama, Proclaiming LGBT Pride Month, Pushes
Repeal of DOMA. Citing his commitment to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA),
President Obama on Friday [5/28/2010] issued a proclamation declaring June 2010 "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
and Transgender Pride Month." The president also emphasized his intention to secure "adoption
rights" for same-sex couples and end both employment discrimination against LGBT individuals as well as
the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" (DADT) compromise that bars homosexuals from serving openly in the military.
A charade with consequences.
The supposed compromise to allow open homosexuality in the military, struck by President Barack Obama, gay
rights lobby groups and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is less of an honest meeting in the middle than
a political charade to mask a foreordained conclusion. First, the politics: It is designed to
placate a demanding special interest group. Its timing is also obvious: Get the measure passed
and signed into law now, far enough away from the November election that it will be lost in the larger
cacophony of issues at election time.
Saving Soldiers from Gay Death.
There is a simple reason why the gay rights lobby is trying to rush through repeal of the Pentagon's homosexual
exclusion policy. They know that a comprehensive review of a proposed change would disclose the
substantial evidence that admission of open and active homosexuals would put our troops in further danger
through exposure to tainted blood. In fact, evidence to this effect is already in the hands of top
military commanders and Pentagon officers.
Obama:
June is Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month. As he did last year, Obama today [5/28/2010]
declared June "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month." But this year the announcement
comes as Congress began moving to repeal the controversial "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy used by the
US military when dealing LGBT service members.
ENDA: End it, don't mend it.
President Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are ramping up to force the Employment Non-Discrimination Act
(ENDA) down the throats of all American employers, trampling your right to freedom of religion, freedom of
speech and freedom of association. ENDA prohibits workplace "discrimination" on the basis of "sexual
orientation or gender identity." Values-driven employers who happen to be Christians will be forced
to hire male employees who want to wear dresses to work and use the women's restroom or face crippling
lawsuits. Employees who express reservations about homosexual conduct will find themselves out
of a job.
Conservative Group Says
ENDA Could Open 'Every Classroom in America' to
Cross-Dressing Teachers. Homosexual activists are pressuring the House to pass the Employment
Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA). They want a vote on the bill as early as this week. But a
conservative group warns that the bill is being rushed to a vote, even though many members of the
House — including Democrats — don't support it because it could ban employers from
firing transsexuals, cross-dressers or men who think of themselves as women.
Discrimination is
necessary. First-graders should not be forced into the classrooms of teachers undergoing sex
changes. Religious broadcasters and faith-based summer camps should not be forced to hire cross-dressers.
Women should not be forced to share bathrooms with people with male body parts who say they want to be females.
Yet those are some of the likely results if Congress passes H.R. 3017, the so-called Employment Non-Discrimination
Act (ENDA), which is due for a vote this week by the House Education and Labor Committee.
Pedophilia is a homosexual problem.
Homosexuals comprise less than three percent of the population, yet are responsible for one-third of all
child sex abuse cases. There is an overwhelming correlation between homosexual preference and
pedophilia. This is further evidence that homosexuality is in fact sexual deviancy.
Maine
Commission Moves to Ban Gender Specific Bathrooms, Sports Teams in Schools. The Maine Human
Rights Commissions taking heat over a proposal to ban schools from enforcing gender divisions in sports
teams, school organizations, bathrooms and locker rooms, saying forcing a student into a particular room
or group because of their biological gender amounts to discrimination.
Maine
Commission Shelves Move to Ban Gender Specific Bathrooms. After FoxNews.com reported
last week on the commission's draft guidelines for how schools should accommodate transgender students,
members decided Monday to cancel a public hearing on the issue and indefinitely postpone its work on the
brochure entitled "Sexual Orientation in Schools and Colleges."
Christian
preacher arrested for saying homosexuality is a sin. Dale McAlpine was charged with causing "harassment,
alarm or distress" after a homosexual police community support officer (PCSO) overheard him reciting a number of "sins"
referred to in the Bible, including blasphemy, drunkenness and same sex relationships. The 42-year-old Baptist, who
has preached Christianity in Wokington, Cumbria for years, said he did not mention homosexuality while delivering a
sermon from the top of a stepladder, but admitted telling a passing shopper that he believed it went against the
word of God.
The Cut-and-Paste
Doctrines of the Left: This semester, the gay activist group SoulForce will make its second
visit in four years to the campus of the Christian university where I teach. We are one of sixteen
stops the group will make at campuses deemed to have policies which discriminate against gays. Their
annual tour is called the Equality Ride, an event which reflects the activists' desire for the gay rights
movement to be the civil rights movement of our generation.
12 Policies that Undermine Civil Society.
[#2] A Big Step toward National Same-Sex Marriage. The House of Representatives is on a trajectory to
pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act of 2009 (ENDA), just as it did in 2007. This legislation would
disallow discrimination in hiring decisions based on "actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender
identity." ENDA would give special protected class status to sexual orientation and gender identity —
just as is given to race, color, sex and religion. Legislation like ENDA is a major precursor to
legalizing same-sex marriage, as the history of the issue in several states shows.
NAMBLA-Gate: The Case
of Kevin Jennings. Harry Hay, who "inspired" Obama-appointed Education Department official Kevin
Jennings to lead a life of homosexual activism, was not only a supporter of the North American Man-Boy Love
Association (NAMBLA) but a prominent member of the Communist Party USA and "Radical Faerie" who believed in
the power of the occult. As disclosed by Peter LaBarbera's Americans for Truth organization, Jennings
said in 1997 that Hay should serve as an inspiration. "One of the people that's always inspired me is
Harry Hay, who started the first ongoing gay rights group in America," Jennings said.
The
Strange Case of Kevin Jennings, Part Two. [Harry] Hay was summoned to appear before the House
Committee on Un-American Activities in 1954 to testify about his CPUSA membership. But because he was
officially out of the party by then, he refused to talk about it. His real contribution to communism in
America was developing the idea that homosexuals, like the "workers" under capitalism, were being oppressed
and had to assert their "rights." Although some CPUSA officials disapproved of the homosexual lifestyle,
the Hay approach was seen as a means by which American society could be subverted and undermined.
Big city mayors pushing homosexual
agenda. On Monday [6/15/2009] at its annual meeting, the U.S. Conference of Mayors passed a
resolution supporting what it calls "marriage equality for same-sex couples." The resolution also
included support for federal bills such as the Employment Non-Discrimination Act and the Matthew Shepard Local Law
Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, as well as repealing the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy.
My Idea and Your
Consequence. One really bad idea that is thriving in higher education is the so-called trans-gendered
rights movement. It is thriving not because of the work of trans-gendered persons but because of feminists
who are willing to use them to advance their own ideas about gender and equality. Feminists have been
increasingly enamored with the idea that there are no innate differences between men and women. In recent
years, they have been arguing with greater and greater frequency that all male/female differences come from the
"culture" or that they are "socially constructed."
NASA employee speaks out on 'Pride Month'.
A NASA employee is voicing concern over a recent email and memo from her supervisors. The controversial
memo was sent out by NASA officials to employees and encouraged them to celebrate "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and
Transgender Pride Month," in accordance with a presidential proclamation. NASA officials not only encouraged
employees to celebrate the pro-homosexual observance, but also encouraged them to participate in pride events in
their communities. If there was no such event in their community, employees were encouraged to start one.
Schism 'inevitable' after US bishops
approve gay ordination. A worldwide Anglican schism now seems inevitable after Episcopal bishops in the
United States today backed the consecration of gay bishops. Episcopal bishops approved a resolution passed earlier
this week by the laity and clergy that allows "partnered gays" full access to ordination.
Homosexual
Agenda Illustrates: There Can Be No Compromise With Evil. Dr. Scott Lively recently wrote a handbook called
"Redeeming the Rainbow" on how the homosexual agenda can be defeated. As Dr. Lively points out, the homosexual agenda
is built on lies from start to finish: lies about the nature of homosexuality, lies about the morality of homosexual
behavior, lies about the health risks of homosexual behavior, lies about "tolerance," lies about those who oppose their
agenda, and lies about the ultimate aims of the homosexual agenda. Lively has a law degree and has a Certificate
in Human Rights from the International Institute of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France. He has been involved
in the pro-family movement for a long time.
Justices
decline 'don't ask, don't tell' case. In refusing to hear a challenge to the military's restriction
on gay troops, the Supreme Court has put the issue back into President Obama's lap — and gay rights
advocates are starting to get angry over his slow pace in terminating "don't ask, don't tell." Mr. Obama
promised during the campaign to eliminate the policy, though he says he needs to act with Congress. But
advocates say he could end the ban unilaterally or at the very least use his power as commander in chief to
stop the dismissal of troops found in violation.
Supreme
Court rejects challenge to 'don't ask, don't tell' policy on gays in the military. The Supreme
Court on Monday turned down a challenge to the Pentagon policy forbidding gays and lesbians from serving openly
in the military, granting a request by the Obama administration. The court said it will not hear an
appeal from former Army Capt. James Pietrangelo II, who was dismissed under the military's "don't ask, don't
tell" policy. The federal appeals court in Boston earlier threw out a lawsuit filed by Pietrangelo
and 11 other veterans.
Manufacturing Consent for the
Gay Agenda. Gay marriage is in. The Vermont legislature has deemed it a constitutional right.
Nearly every cable and network television show features stereotypical homosexual characters. Hollywood and
Television films on gay martyrs win awards even if the factual data is slightly skewered to invoke sympathy.
Calling attention to this successful propaganda format, however, is unwelcome and hazardous to the whistleblower.
Heterosexual Pride Month. Obama came
through on his campaign theme of 'equality' Monday [6/1/2009] by proclaiming June as "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and
Transgender Pride Month".
POTUS to
LGBT: "Welcome to Your White House". ABBA's "Dancing Queen" filled the East Room, as more than
200 prominent gays and lesbians gathered for the first ever celebration of Pride month at the White House.
The President and First Lady entered to thunderous applause. President Obama told the group he is
committed to equality for their community.
Obama holds gay pride reception,
vows to overturn 'unjust laws'. President Obama honored Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender
Pride Month with a White House reception Monday [6/29/2009] where he likened the struggle for gay rights with
the struggle of African-Americans for civil rights.
Obama
tells gay activists: Trust me. President Barack Obama's unprecedented White House celebration of
the four-decades-long struggle of gay Americans for full equality hit all the right notes, including the host's
acknowledgement that politicians' pretty words are no substitute for getting rid of discriminatory laws.
Standing beside a beaming first lady in the ornate East Room on Monday, Obama warmly welcomed more 250 gay,
lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans "to your White House."
We
show tolerance to 'gays' and get tyranny in return. If I never again had to read or write a word about
homosexuals, I would be very happy. I really don't want to know what other people do in their bedrooms. But
these days they really, really want us all to know. And, more important, they insist that we approve. No longer
are we allowed to keep our thoughts to ourselves, while being polite and kind. We are forced to say that we think
homosexuality is a good thing, that homosexual couples are equal in all ways to heterosexual married couples. Most
emphatically, we are compelled to agree that homosexual couples are just as good at bringing up children as the children's
own grandparents. Better, in fact.
Gay Adoption: The
Real Agenda. On Nov. 4, Arkansas voters approved a ban on adoption by unmarried couples. The
purpose of the ballot measure, according to the Family Council Action Committee, was "to blunt a homosexual agenda
that's at work in other states and that will be at work in Arkansas unless we are proactive about doing something
about it." On Nov. 25, a court in Florida pointed out something that the FCAC and other anti-gay groups
somehow manage to overlook: Allowing gay couples to adopt is much less about protecting gays than protecting
children.
How 25 Years of Gay Activism in
Hollywood Has Paid Off: If you're noticing your TV screen turning pink, it's not just your
imagination. The new broadcast TV season includes 22 series featuring a total of 35 openly gay
characters, according to the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD). GLAAD, which rides
herd over all Hollywood scripts dealing with homosexuality, says the number of series with homosexual
characters is a record. These series are on ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox and the CW networks. The total
figure does not include shows on cable... .
Homosexuality and the Laws of Moral
Physics. It makes front page news when conservative elected officials are accused of selling-out
to monolithic corporate lobbies like "Big Oil" or "Big Tobacco." Yet the media rarely take notice when
liberal politicians toe the line for extreme ideological special interests. Case in point: Within
minutes after swearing in, President Obama had the White House web site updated to declare his unconditional
support for every demand of the politically powerful and very well-funded homosexual lobby.
Same-sex adoption is an assault on the family. When homosexuality was
legalised back in 1967 did anyone dream that some four decades on a British grandmother and grandfather wanting to adopt
their own grandchildren would be refused permission and the children adopted instead by two gay men? The case in
Edinburgh reported today, where precisely this grotesque development has occurred, illustrates the sickening way in which
what started out as a decent attempt to be tolerant towards a minority lifestyle has turned into a totalitarian assault
upon family life and human rights.
The Editor states the obvious...
That's why it is called a "slippery slope."
Episcopal diocese warms to gay
unions. The Episcopal Diocese of Virginia inched closer to blessing same-sex unions Saturday [1/24/2009]
when delegates approved a resolution affirming "the inherent integrity and blessedness of committed Christian relationships
between two adult persons." ... "I think we're going to open some doors we do not wish to open," said delegate Ann Davis
from Louisa. "A 30-something woman told me her understanding of monogamy means 'one at a time.' There is nothing
here about these relationships being 'lifelong.'"
The Bible, The Church, and Homosexuality.
Although the leading Christian churches in the United States continue to view homosexual behavior as outside the realm of
appropriate Christian conduct, revisionist scholars within their respective communions continue a campaign to re-interpret
or ignore biblical teaching regarding homosexuality. Exposing the faulty reasoning behind the gay hermeneutic, this
booklet demonstrates how homosexuality is unambiguously found wanting by Scripture and tradition.
Trans-gender rights
bill passes House by one vote. By a single vote, the New Hampshire House today [4/8/2009] reversed itself
and passed a bill that bars discrimination on the basis of gender identity. The proposal was dubbed the "bathroom
bill" by its opponents. The bill, House Bill 415, allows individuals to bring actions at the Human Rights Commission
when they feel they have been discriminated against on the basis of their sexual identity, or the way they express it,
such as with their clothing or makeup.
Obama: Building a Monument to Tolerance on the Rubble of
Religious Freedom. No sooner had he finished speaking of his fellow Americans in his
inaugural address as a people who Òhave chosen hope over fear [and] unity of purpose over conflict
and discordÓ than his staff posted, on the White House Web site, a virtual declaration of war against
those who oppose the demands for special rights and privileges by those who engage in homosexual
behavior.
'Change' We Never Imagined. On
issues involving marriage, family and sexual morality, Obama's been even more brazen than some of his most ardent detractors
could have expected. Literally within minutes after he took the oath of office, the official White House webpage was
updated — under the heading of "The Agenda: Civil Rights" — to detail his wholesale "support for the
LGBT (homosexual activist) community." His stated plans include the following: Defeating all state and federal
constitutional efforts to defend the millennia-old definition of natural marriage from attacks by "gay marriage" activists.
Homosexual Men Account for
65 Percent of Syphilis Cases, CDC Study Finds. The federal Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) says homosexual men accounted for 65 percent of the nearly 12,000 cases of syphilis
in the United States in 2007, making them the "primary driver" of increased syphilis rates overall.
Gays and
Atheists Joined at the Lip. It just seems to me that it's high time we began setting the record straight.
To begin with, there is no such thing as homophobia. A phobia is defined as a fear or anxiety that exceeds normal
proportions. Concocting the word was simply a rather sly way of suggesting that it is heterosexuals who are deviant.
The other lie that is parroted with some frequency is that those who don't fully support the gay agenda are most likely
latent homosexuals, which is supposed to suggest, I assume, that lurking inside every heterosexual man is an interior
decorator screaming to get out and do something about those curtains. Odd, isn't it, that you never hear about
latent heterosexuals?
NJ rules against church
group in gay rights case. A church group that owns beachfront property discriminated against a lesbian couple
by not allowing them to rent the locale for their civil union ceremony, a New Jersey department ruled Monday
in a case that has become a flash point in the nation's gay rights battle.
Gay Rights, Gay Rage.
Before he was purged from the bench, former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore made a remarkable and
lamentably unappreciated contribution to American jurisprudence. Concurring in the 2002 case of Ex Parte H.H., a
custody dispute involving a lesbian mother, Moore demonstrated that homosexuality had no protected status in the
Anglo-American common-law tradition, that indeed such behavior had been proscribed for centuries as "a crime
against nature," and that Alabama courts had consistently condemned homosexual acts as "illegal under the
laws of this state and immoral in the eyes of most of its citizens."
Under the radar: Gay-rights groups are quietly but
aggressively advancing their agenda. While the news media focused on immigration last week,
California Democrats focused on completing the transmutation of public-school social science curricula into
a punctuated series of pro-homosexuality tracts.
How
25 Years of Gay Activism in Hollywood Has Paid Off: The new broadcast TV season includes
22 series featuring a total of 35 openly gay characters, according to the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against
Defamation (GLAAD). GLAAD, which rides herd over all Hollywood scripts dealing with homosexuality, says
the number of series with homosexual characters is a record. These series are on ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox and
the CW networks. The total figure does not include shows on cable, like The L Word on Showtime, or
MTV's all-gay LOGO network.
Legislating
Immorality. Freedom of conscience, or diversity of belief, is the last thing the homosexual
lobby will tolerate: In New Mexico, a state civil-rights commission fined an evangelical wedding
photographer $6,637 for politely declining to photograph a gay commitment ceremony. In California,
the state Supreme Court ruled unanimously against two San Diego fertility doctors who refused to give
in-vitro fertilization to a lesbian owing to their religious beliefs, even though they had referred her
to another doctor. And just this week, evangelical dating site eHarmony, which hadn't previously
provided same-sex matchmaking services, announced it had been browbeaten into doing so by New Jersey's
Division on Civil Rights and the threat of litigation.
Mistrial declared in
firefighters' gay-pride parade suit. A judge declared a mistrial Monday in the case of four
firefighters who claimed they were sexually harassed by their required appearance in last years's gay pride
parade. The jury of six men and six women was hopelessly deadlocked over the sexual harassment claim,
the judge in the case said.
The Editor states the obvious...
First we we told to "tolerate" homosexuals, then we were expected to "accept" them, and now we are
apparently required to endorse their deviant behavior and participate in its celebration.
Obama
Sees Presidency As 'Bully Pulpit' for Full 'LGBT Equality'. In an open letter posted on
his presidential campaign Web site Thursday [2/28/2008], Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) expounds on the
"promise of equality for all — a promise that extends to our gay brothers and sisters."
He said he'd use the "bully pulpit" of the presidency to press for a number of laws and policy changes
backed by the homosexual community.
Three Dangerous Bills Threaten Religious Freedom.
The Employment Non-Discrimination Act is
designed to create special rights protections for those with sexual orientations
different than heterosexuality. The original bill contained language that included "gender identity," which is code for
cross-dressers, transvestites and transsexuals (known as "transgenders" by radical sex activists).
Why
Does Obama Hate Marriage? Specifically Barack Obama wishes to pass "ENDA" the employment
non-discrimination act. Or so it's called. What it really consists of is the most diabolical way
ever conceived to punish every voice in America, who under present law, have every right, to speak to their
houses of worship, family, and spouse as to the scientific, mental health, and diseased ridden drawbacks of
engaging in homosexual behavior. ... ENDA would directly challenge and seek to limit religious expression,
doctrine, theology, and practice. Senator Barack Obama knows this, and supports it with all his might.
Don't
Ask, Don't Tell, Don't Even Think It. Marine Gen. Peter Pace has violated a cardinal rule of our
politically correct culture: stating his opinion that homosexual behavior is immoral. While
some of his critics say they are upset he uttered his remarks in his official capacity, that's a mere sidebar.
Their real beef is with the content of his remarks, not in what capacity — official or
personal — he made them.
Our Founding Fathers would applaud Gen. Pace.
Marine Corps Gen. Peter Pace, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, should be commended for speaking out
against allowing homosexuals to serve in the military. His views may have scandalized gay-rights
activists and the media elite, but they reflect the convictions of those in the armed forces and a majority of
the American public. The Military Times reports that 59 percent of active-duty military subscriber
respondents oppose allowing open homosexuals to serve in the military and less than a year ago a Gallup poll
indicated that over 50 percent of Americans thought homosexuality was immoral.
The Secret Gay Network. In a major
new development confirming our theory that radical gay activists were behind the Mark Foley scandal, the
mysterious source responsible for exposing Foley's behavior has been identified as an employee of the Human
Rights Campaign. This is the radical homosexual organization that functions as an adjunct of the
national Democratic Party.
America's Culture War: It is amazing that
some schools are celebrating "Gay Awareness Week" each year. It is amazing that many schools are establishing
Homosexual/Lesbian Clubs.
It is amazing to see that saying anything negative about homosexuality is considered to be
politically incorrect. It is amazing to see the possibility of future laws that would prevent preachers from
condemning homosexuality from the church pulpit, even though the Bible calls it an abomination.
Biblical message now criminalized.
A new Colorado law is helping homosexual activists achieve their goal of forcing Christians to teach biblical condemnation of
homosexuality only behind the closed doors of their sanctuaries. The as-yet untested state law promotes sexual identity
"perception" to the level of skin color under state discrimination laws.
Guv strikes state's gender-specific restrooms.
With today's signature on SB200, Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter, a Democrat, has eliminated gender-specific restrooms
and locker rooms statewide, giving woman and girls reason to fear being confronted by predators, cross-dressers "or even a
homosexual or heterosexual male," according to a critic. The state's new "transgender nondiscrimination" bill makes it
illegal to deny a person access to public accommodations, including restrooms and locker rooms, based on gender identity
or the "perception" of gender identity.
New
Transgender Policy Takes Effect at N.Y. Juvenile Jails. Transgender youth in New York's juvenile
detention centers are now allowed to wear whatever uniform they choose, be called by whatever name they want
and ask for special housing under a new anti-discrimination policy drawing praise from advocacy groups.
"New York is way ahead of the curve," said Roberta Sklar, a spokeswoman for the National Gay and Lesbian Task
Force.
Presbyterian leaders
OK gay clergy. Leaders of the Presbyterian Church (USA) overturned a long-standing ban on the
ordination of gays and lesbians Friday [6/27/2008], providing yet the latest example of a religious
denomination struggling with how, and whether, to incorporate homosexuality into church life.
The Editor asks...
Why didn't they do this 100 years ago? What part of the Bible has changed in the
last 100 years?
California Bill Would Force
Public Schools to Honor 'Gay Hero'. A conservative group is warning parents about a bill under
consideration in the California Legislature that requires public schools to have an official "Gay Day."
AB 2567 requires Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to proclaim May 22 of each year as Harvey Milk Day,
putting it on par with President's Day and Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Pink arches? McDonald's buys into homosexual
agenda. The founder of the American Family Association says the restaurant chain has turned its attention
away from inexpensive food and toward a potentially costly political agenda.
Little by little: Ted Kennedy
continues to push for homosexual cause. Senator Ted Kennedy tells Associated Press he expects
an uphill battle in his quest to get 60 Senate votes in favor of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act,
otherwise known as ENDA. The bill, which passed the House last November, would ban alleged "workplace
discrimination" against individuals based on their sexual orientation. Oddly, the liberal senator has
drawn fire from transsexuals and cross-dressers for not including additional special protections in the bill
for people based on their "gender identity and expression."
When
I Was a Boy, America Was a Better Place. All employers in California are now prohibited by law
from firing a man who has decided to cross-dress at work. And needless to say, no fellow worker can say
to that man, "Hey, Jack, why not wear the dress at home and men's clothes to work?" An employer
interviewing a prospective employee is not free to ask the most natural human questions: Are you
married? Do you have a child? How old are you? Soon "How are you?" will be banned lest one
discriminate on the basis of health.
House Passes Ban on Job Discrimination Against
Gays. The House on Wednesday [11/7/2007] approved the first federal ban on job discrimination
against gays, lesbians and bisexuals. Passage of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act came despite
protests from some gay rights supporters that the bill does not protect transgender workers. That term
covers transsexuals, cross-dressers and others whose outward appearance does not match their gender at birth.
No
Transgender Males Allowed in Girls' Bathrooms, Group Says. Council lawmakers in Maryland's
Montgomery County are considering a proposal to give transgendered people protected status under law, and a
local citizen's group is pledging to try to stop it, contending that, among other things, it would allow
transgender men to use showers, lockers, and restrooms used by women and girls. Bill 23-07 would
add "gender identity" to the county's existing non-discrimination laws, if passed by the Montgomery
County Council
.
Colorado Governor Signs She-Male Restroom Bill.
This bill makes all public accommodations — including public restrooms and locker rooms in the state —
"gender free." This law now means that anyone who identifies as the opposite sex, can freely access public facilities
formerly reserved for a single sex. Sexual predators can now enter women's restrooms and claim they have a sexual
identity different from their birth sex. It makes it legal for drag queens, cross-dressers and anyone else with a
serious Gender Identity Disorder to use opposite sex restrooms and locker rooms. But it goes further. It defines
"public accommodations" as including malls, restaurants, schools, and small businesses.
Gay Rights vs. Free Speech
Rights?. U.C.L.A. Law professor Eugene Volokh discusses a free speech controversy over a ruling
imposed under New Mexico's gay-rights law, which has been cited by ENDA supporters as an example of a growing
consensus in favor of banning sexual orientation discrimination. A photographer was ordered to pay
$6,600 by the New Mexico Human Rights Commission for refusing to take pictures of a civil-commitment ceremony
planned by a lesbian couple.
NM Human Rights Commission: photographer discriminated.
The New Mexico Human Rights Commission says an Albuquerque photographer discriminated against a gay couple by refusing to
photograph their commitment ceremony. The photographer contends the ruling violates her right to freedom of religion.
Vanessa Willock filed a complaint with the commission in 2006, saying photographer Elaine Huguenin told her she photographed
only traditional marriages.
So-called Hate Crimes Legislation Moving in the Senate
Threatens Religious Freedom. This bill strikes at the heart of free speech and freedom of religious expression.
Why? Because statements critical concerning sexual orientation or sexual identity can be prosecuted — if those
statements were part of the motivation of a person committing a crime against a homosexual, bisexual, cross-dresser or
transsexual. If a pastor speaks out against homosexuality and a church member commits a violent crime against a
homosexual or transgender, the pastor's sermon can be considered as an inducement to the crime! A pastor's sermon
could be considered hate speech under this bill, punishable by imprisonment.
Three Dangerous Bills Threaten Religious Freedom.
[For example] The Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act will create federally-protected minority status for
individuals with a variety of sexual orientations, including cross-dressers, homosexuals and other sexually confused
individuals. It supposedly is meant to help local law enforcement officials deal with an alleged epidemic of
hate crimes committed against sexual radicals, but FBI statistics show that there is no such epidemic. In addition,
this legislation begins to lay the legal foundation and framework to investigate, prosecute and persecute pastors, business
owners, and anyone else whose actions are based upon and reflect the truths found in the Bible.
Minneapolis
Police Suspend Christian Psychologist. Pro-family groups are defending a psychologist who screens
potential officers for the Minneapolis Police Department after he was suspended because of his past affiliation
with an Illinois group that opposes special legal recognition for homosexuals.
The Minneapolis Thought
Police: If you're a Christian working for the City of Minneapolis, watch your step —
your job may already be in jeopardy. In what may be one of the most blatant acts of anti-Christian
bigotry and discrimination by an American government agency, the Minneapolis Police Department has suspended
a Police Psychologist, Dr. Michael Campion … at the behest of leftist activists.
Barney and Friends: Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.)
introduced the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) yesterday [4/25/2007], which would make it illegal to
fire, refuse to hire, or refuse to promote an employee based on his sexual orientation or "gender identity."
Democratic Candidates Say They're OK With
Second-Grade Teacher Reading Gay Prince Fairy Tale. A fairy tale about two princes falling in
love sparked a backlash — and a lawsuit — against a teacher and a school last year when
it was read to a second-grade class in Massachusetts. But the three frontrunners in the Democratic
presidential race suggested Wednesday night at their debate in New Hampshire that they'd support reading
the controversial book to children as part of a school curriculum.
Metro Transit driver allowed to avoid
buses with gay-themed ads. A Metro Transit bus driver who objects on religious grounds is being
allowed to abstain from driving buses that carry gay-themed ads. Officials with the public transit system
said they've made a reasonable accommodation to her beliefs. But a union leader said the bus company is
condoning intolerance, and that drivers were never before exempted from buses carrying other ads they found
objectionable.
How
Britain is turning Christianity into a crime: How long will it be before Christianity becomes
illegal in Britain? This is no longer the utterly absurd and offensive question that on first blush it
would appear to be. An evangelical Christian campaigner, Stephen Green was arrested and charged last
weekend with using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour. So what was this behaviour?
Merely trying peacefully to hand out leaflets at a gay rally in Cardiff. So what was printed on those
leaflets that was so threatening, abusive or insulting that it attracted the full force of the law? Why,
none other than the majestic words of the 1611 King James Bible.
Ban on 'mom' and 'dad'
considered — again. A plan that has been launched in the California state
Assembly — again — could be used to ban references to "mom" and "dad" in public
schools statewide by prohibiting anything that would "reflect adversely" on the homosexual lifestyle choice.
'Mom,' 'Dad,' targeted by California bias ban.
A new plan approved by the California Legislature could be used to ban the words "dad" or "mom" in all public schools as
being discriminatory against "partner 1" and "partner 2" in same-sex relationships, according to critics.
Taxpayers,
Tourists Help Fund Homosexual Event in San Francisco. If you pay taxes or stay at a hotel in the
city/county of San Francisco, Calif., some of your money is going toward the homosexual "leather" event being
held in the area this weekend. That fact led a conservative activist to state that the festival's
government and corporate sponsors have gotten into the "perversion business."
The
Corporate Curtain. America's corporations are under increasing pressure not only to accommodate
homosexuality but to celebrate it and to punish employees who object. Over the past two decades, hundreds
of companies have adopted varying degrees of homosexual activism in their official policies. As a result,
a growing number of Christians have been disciplined or fired for resisting the trend. Elizabeth Birch,
former president of the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the largest homosexual pressure group, said in 2004 that
she was happily surprised that corporations have become "the driving engine" of "gay" activism.
Ehrlich
appointee fired over remark. Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. fired one of his appointees to the
Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority yesterday [6/15/2006] after the board member asserted on
a local cable talk show that homosexuals lived a life of "sexual deviancy."
[Yes, these are the same people who insist on free speech and a "diversity of ideas"
when promoting homosexuality.]
Gays have emerged as the
new protected class in America. The governor of Maryland fired one of his appointees to the
Washington Metro transit authority board for stating a negative opinion of homosexuality on a cable TV talk
show. … The governor, a Republican who is up for re-election and is trying to move from the right to
the center, clearly hasn't thought the issue through. He certainly seems to be banishing [Robert] Smith
for a thought crime.
Deviant Speech Defined. "The
real issue here is the right of government employees to voice their religious convictions with impunity,"
William Donahue of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights says. "Moreover, Robert Smith's
remark is so innocuous that, up until recently, every sociology textbook on social problems listed
homosexuality as deviant behavior."
Update:
Ehrlich Appoints Openly Gay
Judge. Gov. Robert Ehrlich has named an openly gay judge to serve on the Baltimore
District Court. … The governor's appointment comes more than a week after he fired one of his
appointees to the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, Robert J. Smith, for
saying on a talk show that homosexuals lived a life of "sexual deviancy."
Maryland's
Thought Police: It is not without irony that Robert J. Smith, a Catholic citizen of
Maryland — the Catholic colony of the original 13 — has been punished by that state's Republican
governor for exercising his right to freedom of speech and religion.
A
law that turns sexual tolerance into tyranny. Would anyone ever have imagined that one day it
would become illegal in Britain to teach children to follow precepts laid down in the Bible? … That appears
to be precisely what may happen as a result of new regulations soon to be introduced by the Government — and
all under the rubric, would you believe, of producing a more tolerant and free society.
The Editor says...
We know now that mere tolerance is not enough. Acceptance, endorsement and normalization of
homosexuality is the goal. Incrementalism only goes one direction.
The
Ten Big Myths of Pro-'Gay' Beliefs: Myth #3: It's been proven that homosexuality is
genetic… in fact, about 10% of the population is homosexual. The reality is that no such evidence
exists. It's true that some groups have officially accepted homosexuality, but the fine print reveals
that no studies or verification is ever cited to back this up. It's more a popular trend and wishful
thinking than a proven fact — kind of like believing the earth is flat.
Why
Gays Can Not Be 'Pro-Choice': There is a big "no-no" in America today — under no
circumstances is a person who engages in homosexuality allowed to be 'pro-choice.' It is of the utmost
threat to the elite radicals that are guiding the homosexual agenda, and it is the fundamental issue on which
the rest of the entire house of cards is built.
Gay Rights Advances Likely in Congress.
Wary conservative leaders, as well as gay-rights advocates, share a belief that at least two measures will win
approval this year: a hate-crimes bill that would cover offenses motivated by anti-gay bias, and a measure
that would outlaw workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation.
Gay condo
controversy: Developers across the country are drawing up plans for condo projects — and
sometimes even whole communities — targeted at gay and lesbian buyers. And Massachusetts is proving
to be a fertile laboratory for this experiment.
New
Hampshire inns prepare for civil union guests. If the rainbow-painted deck chairs, fluttering rainbow flag
and purple shutters don't make it clear, the Highlands Inn's toll-free number, 877-LES-B-INN, leaves no doubt
as to whom this White Mountains resort caters to.
Gay
demands shift from equality to special endorsement. As the national argument continues to rage
regarding the proper social and governmental response to homosexuality, some of the advocates for radical change
have unobtrusively but unmistakably shifted their campaign from a request for equal treatment to an assertion
of innate superiority. They demand for gay impulses not the same treatment accorded to heterosexual
desires, but far greater latitude and acceptance, along with uniquely privileged social sanction and legal
endorsement.
Pentagon Changes Listing of Homosexuality as
Mental Illness. Pentagon guidelines that classified homosexuality as a mental disorder now put
it among a list of conditions or "circumstances" that range from bed-wetting to fear of flying. … The
revision came in response to criticism this year when it was discovered that the guidelines listed
homosexuality alongside mental retardation and personality disorders.
Impressionable
Kids and Homosexuality. Can a society create more homosexuals? The answer quite clearly is
yes. That is how current homosexuals, in fact, came to be. There is no evidence — none — for
a genetic origin for homosexuality. That may come as a surprise to many people, but it's true.
Fifteen
Frank Issues to Raise in Homosexual Diversity Training: As a teacher or student, if you are
forced to participate in "diversity" or "sensitivity" training, don't just sit there and let them
spoonfeed twisted concepts through manipulative exercises and false information. Raise your hand, bring
up the following issues and expose the real nature of what is taking place: they want to force people to
accept homosexual behavior, even if some don't like it and the responsible facts don't support it.
New
US church leader says homosexuality no sin. Newly elected leader of the U.S. Episcopal Church
Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori said on Monday [6/19/2006] she believed homosexuality was no sin and
homosexuals were created by God to love people of the same gender.
Pentagon Revises
Homosexuality Document. The Pentagon is revising a document that calls homosexuality a mental
disorder, officials said Wednesday [6/28/2006].
Gays accused of discrimination in resort
village. Provincetown, New England's summer gay capital, is facing a rise in harassment and
discrimination. But this time it's straight people who say they are being ridiculed as "breeders"
and "baby makers."
Gay
community prepares for post-Katrina 'Decadence'. The gay community plans to paint the town pink and
green this weekend, just days after the ceremonies that marked the first anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.
Homosexuals Target State Races To Gain
Political Power. Homosexual activists are running for office at the state level in order to
gain more political clout in imposing the homosexual agenda upon all Americans. USA Today reports that these
efforts are being made to undercut efforts to pass laws banning same-sex marriage. More than 353
homosexuals are already in office, including 61 state legislators and three members of the U.S.
Congress. This is up from 49 in 1991.
Macy's Removes Gay Pride
Display. Macy's department store has removed a window display marking Boston's gay pride week
after a group that opposes gay marriage complained it was offensive.
CBS Runs GLAAD PSA On Soap
Opera. In spite of receiving more than 3,000 emails from TVC supporters … CBS
ignored their concerns and ran its Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) public
service announcement on "As The World Turns" on May 9 [2006].
Rev. Sheldon Speaks Out
Against "Brokeback Mountain". The homosexual/bisexual-themed film "Brokeback
Mountain" is being showered with awards and has already earned eight Oscar nominations. The
politically-correct film is simply one more example of Hollywood's efforts to normalize homosexual
behaviors and to vilify any one who criticizes homosexual behaviors.
Pick
Your Nose, Not Your Gender. Under a proposed [New York City] Board of Health rule, "people born
in the city would be able to change the documented sex on their birth certificates." … The proposed
rule isn't aimed at people who have had "sex-change surgery." They are already permitted to do this.
Instead, it's directed at people who "had lived in their adopted gender for at least two years…."
Read those words carefully: adopted and especially gender, instead of sex.
Entertainment
as indoctrination. So, why Brokeback Mountain? For Hollywood's fashionable elite,
promoting heterosexual promiscuity and marital infidelity is passé — those subjects are already
prevalent in theater and TV entertainment. Instead, for the past decade, the glitterati have been
advocating for the normalization of gender disorientation pathology — the promotion of homosexual
relationships as equivalent to those ordained by the laws of nature (not to mention every religion
of the world).
Multiple partners
fueling AIDS. Instead of casual sexual encounters with multiple partners, established
partnerships outside of marriage are fuelling a generalised epidemic in southern African countries.
Why is AIDS so
special? AIDS is one of the few diseases where personal behavior rather than medical research
could save millions of lives. At its most simple, stop fornicating.
AIDS: The
Questions They Won't Ask. What have American taxpayers gotten for the $20 billion
per year (and rising) government spending on HIV/AIDS? What has happened to the more than
half a billion condoms that the United States taxpayers have distributed to Third World
countries during the past seven years
? Why do billions of dollars continue to flow
to organizations and programs that have been a colossal failure by any yardstick?
The Myth of Heterosexual AIDS: In this lucid and informative
book, Michael Fumento explains the facts about the transmission of AIDS and exposes the tragedy of the campaign of
misinformation which has surrounded this disease for decades. Systematically debunking the myths about
transmission and the travesty of the misuse of AIDS information, Michael Fumento demonstrates the harm that has come
from keeping the American public from the truth about AIDS.
Goodbye AIDS.
Celebrities Move on to New Causes. The red ribbons gave way to the pink ribbons, which were
overtaken by the yellow wristbands — until light blue ribbons came along. And they've all
been shoved aside by the latest color to wash over Hollywood: green. … As AIDS enters its 25th
year, it is no longer The Cause among celebrities.
Board has plan to
oust ROTC from S.F. schools. The San Francisco Board of Education appears poised to kick the
military's Junior ROTC programs out of the city's public schools, saying the Pentagon's refusal to allow openly
gay service members is deplorable and not in line with the school district's anti-discrimination policy.
What's
Up (or Down) with AIDS? It's a testament to something – well – not
good, that 19 years after I first started debunking the "we're all at risk" theory of HIV/AIDS
there are still those who insist that contagious diseases must follow political ideologies. And
they're not shy about fabricating numbers to shoehorn them into the politically correct fit.
Talking with Liberals on
Homosexuality: Living in Massachusetts, I've had more than my share of opportunity to
converse with liberals on issues of the day. And I can confirm that quite a few liberals are complete
blockheads with respect to issues surrounding homosexuality, steadfastly refusing to adhere to anything
resembling logic.
Uninvited guests: How hospitable should
Christian campuses be to visitors who oppose their beliefs?
The
Corporate Curtain. America's corporations are under increasing pressure not only to accommodate
homosexuality but to celebrate it and to punish employees who object. Over the past two decades,
hundreds of companies have adopted varying degrees of homosexual activism in their official policies. As
a result, a growing number of Christians have been disciplined or fired for resisting the trend.
"King
And King" Promotes Perversion. America's parents need to realize that homosexual activists
are very serious about taking over our schools and brainwashing our children. They want to
indoctrinate our kids with the lie that homosexuality is normal and healthy, and that anyone (including
their parents) who believes differently is a homophobic bigot. If you want to get scared into
action, check out the website of the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network. They conduct
seminars promoting the teaching of homosexuality to children as young as kindergarten age.
There is more
information about Homosexual indoctrination in
schools on another page.
Extreme Bias
Makeover: In short, several psychiatrists are now pushing for racists and people who
suffer from "homophobia" to be labeled mentally ill. … It may sound extreme, but this is the beginning
of a process that has long been popular with tyrants. In the Soviet Union, Christians were sent by
the hundreds of thousands to mental institutions. The state was officially atheist, so if you
believe that there was a God, you were insane. And it's still a wonderful tool for oppressors
in places like China and North Korea.
Psychiatrists Ponder If 'Extreme
Bias' Against Homosexuals Is Mental Illness. In early December, 2005, the Washington
Post published an article describing a number of psychiatrists and psychologists who believe
that "extreme bias" against other races or homosexuals should be considered a mental illness
and added to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders published by
the American Psychiatric Association.
Homosexual Urban Legend: One
of the most persistent homosexual urban legends is the false claim that from 6 to 14
million children in the U.S. are being reared in homosexual households.
Proposed Gay
Games Event Divides Town. Among the items on the City Council's agenda seems a simple
matter: whether to give rowers a permit to have a boat race this summer on a small man-made lake.
Homosexuals Terrorize "Love Won Out"
Conference In Boston. Without a parade permit, activists yelled at conference attendees
and used a sound truck to blare hateful messages to those attending. Police stood by and did nothing
to stop the illegal protest.
Vatican
Reiterates Stance Against Homosexuals in the Priesthood. The Vatican is toughening
its stand against gay candidates for the priesthood, specifying in a new document that even men
with "transitory homosexual tendencies must overcome their urges for at least three years before
entering the clergy.
Episcopal Feud
Over Gay Bishops Widens. A Pennsylvania diocese that is the epicenter of conservative Episcopal
dissent over gay bishops rejected the authority of the incoming head of the denomination Wednesday [6/28/2006]
but stopped short of a full break with the Episcopal Church.
The
Knock on the Door. As a writer, I can't imagine anything more chilling than for the
police to come to my door and tell me I'd better stop writing about certain issues. As an
American, I can't imagine a worse insult to my First Amendment rights. But Robert Jason is
a Canadian citizen, and he doesn't have to imagine a thing like that, because it really
happened — to him.
Pastor Calls for a Boycott of
Microsoft and HP. A pastor on Monday [1/16/2006] called for a national boycott of
Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard and other companies that support a gay civil rights bill, saying the
corporations have underestimated the power of religious consumers.
Why
homosexuals should not adopt or teach children. Today, I offer an answer to questions about why
I am opposed to the idea of gays adopting or teaching children. Several years ago, I began writing
columns questioning the so-called gay rights movement. I prefer to call it the "gay privileges" movement
because gays are not presently deprived of anything that is rightfully theirs.
Martin Luther
Queen, Jr. Homosexuals on the campus of UNC-Wilmington cannot be said to be involved in a civil
rights struggle comparable to what blacks faced in the sixties because these homosexuals are, quite simply,
not involved in a civil rights struggle at all. In fact, at my university, they enjoy special privileges
that place their opponents in a position of struggling for civil rights.
Homosexuality is a choice, group
contends. An evangelical Christian pro-family group held a conference on homosexuality yesterday
]6/10/2006] in Silver Spring, emphasizing that homosexuals can choose to change their sexual preference and
live as heterosexuals.
A Gay
Easter? Gay-rights groups make covert plans to crash the annual White House Easter
egg roll. For over a hundred years children have gathered on the South Lawn of the White House
on the Monday after Easter to roll Easter eggs across the yard and meet the Easter Bunny. Seemingly
few (if any) Washingtonians have ever tried to exploit the annual White House Easter Egg Roll for political
purposes. Until now. A church-based homosexual rights group is planning to crash the event
with a "family visibility action" to spotlight their non-traditional families.
Languishing
in foster care? Catholic Charities in Boston just shut down its adoptions program rather than
capitulate on the issue. But the question is poorly posed. Instead of asking whether gays should be
foster parents, we should ask, what would be most helpful for foster children?
Arkansas Governor
Seeks Gay-Foster-Parent Ban. Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said Friday [6/30/2006] he hopes the
Legislature considers reimposing a ban on gay foster parents, struck down a day earlier by the state Supreme
Court. "I'm very disappointed that the court seems more interested in what's good for gay couples than
what's good for children needing foster care," Huckabee said through his spokeswoman Alice Stewart.
Gay
foster couple to be sentenced for abusing boys. A gay couple found guilty of sexually abusing
boys placed in their foster care have been sentenced to a total of 11 years in jail.
Excellent!
No such
thing as "sexual orientation"? The new issue of World includes
an interview with Dr. Jeffrey Satinover, who has argued, against today's conventional
wisdom, that the whole idea of a permanent "sexual orientation" is a fiction. He
also explains how homosexuality moved from mental disorder to civil-rights
cause. Overall, his work adds credibility to groups that help "homosexuals" to
become heterosexual.
Gay Rights and Religious Liberty: The
true aim of this movement is, having accomplished the liberation of the homosexuals from any civil or
legal harassment, is to compel the general society to accept homosexuality as a viable, acceptable,
alternate lifestyle. They will not rest until they have accomplished this goal. They will
accept nothing less than the utter annihilation of all cultural and social opposition to their
perversions. They are not content to carry out their abominations in the privacy of their
bedchambers. They insist on their right to flaunt them in our faces and compel us to acquiesce
and say that it is good.
Homogenizing
Homosexuality (Excerpt): Using techniques that allow a tiny minority to gain
power over a complacent majority, homosexual activists are leading Massachusetts (and America)
down into a moral abyss.
Parting
ways with the AIDS community: If AIDS activists had their way, HIV-positive people who
deliberately have unprotected sex with unwitting partners would never have to face criminal
justice. Jail would stigmatize those who are infected with the virus and discourage
others from getting tested, they argue.
GLAAD's cast of
characters: The fall TV season is approaching, and predictably, the powerful
lobbyists at the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) are already demanding
that Hollywood develop more positive gay characters.
The Gay Propaganda Machine: In
a blatant violation of journalistic ethics, Time magazine assigned a homosexual reporter, John Cloud, to
write the recent Time cover story on homosexual teenagers but did not disclose his conflict of interest
to its readers.
Is
sexual identity malleable? You see them at night in big cities: men

Ex-homosexual
threatened with death. A homosexual activist website in San Diego has published
a threatening message directed specifically at a prominent ex-homosexual and more generally
against other Christians activists.
Lavender
Revenge? Ever since U.S. Special Counsel Scott Bloch tried last year to uphold the law
regarding federal employees' civil rights by omitting a category never approved by Congress, the homosexual

Family advocates to Ford: Stop
funding 'gay' agenda. Leaders of 42 pro-family groups have signed a letter asking Ford to
honor what the activists see as a previous commitment to stop supporting homosexual advocacy efforts.
Indiana
Governor's Memo Paves Way for Quotas for Homosexuals, Transvestites. Indiana
may soon begin hiring men in dresses in order to satisfy the governor's affirmative action
plan. That's a possibility because of an April 26, 2005, policy statement issued by
Republican Gov. Mitchell E. Daniels Jr. … The practical effect may be that state agency
executives cannot take into account anything regarding sexuality, including whether men wear
dresses, makeup, high heels or other feminine garb, or act in an outrageously unorthodox
manner. … It makes such behavior the problem of other employees, not the person
flaunting his or her "lifestyle."
Judge
Halts Pro-Homosexual Sex-Ed Class. A group of parents took their opposition
to the sex-ed courses to court last week, arguing that they depicted homosexuality as a
natural and morally correct lifestyle and did not offer any contrary opinion.
Churches unite against
gay laws. Churches were on a collision course with the Government last night after the Archbishops
of Canterbury and York backed their Roman Catholic counterpart by criticising new gay rights laws.
Dr. Rowan Williams and Dr John Sentamu, the two most senior figures in the Church of England, said in a
joint letter to the Prime Minister that the consciences of Christians must not be trampled over.
No exemption from gay rights law.
Downing Street has said there will be no exemption from anti-discrimination laws for Catholic adoption agencies.
But Tony Blair said they would get 21 months to prepare for change, calling this a "sensible compromise".
Adoption agencies had warned they would close rather than place children with gay couples, saying that went
against their beliefs. The Catholic Church in England and Wales said it was "deeply disappointed" that
no exemption had been offered.
Bill That Criminalizes
Speaking Against Homosexuality Passes California State Assembly. SB 1234, an
expansion of California's "hate crimes" laws, has just passed the California State Assembly
and now moves to the governor for his signature or veto. SB 1234 could be
interpreted by courts to make religious speech a crime if the "victim" considers it a threat.
Is Telling Lawyer Jokes a Hate Crime? A few decades
ago, the "gay rights" movement arose and demanded the right to practice the homosexual lifestyle. "We do
not ask you to approve or agree with us," they would say, "we only ask that you recognize our right to our
practices." But that isn't enough anymore. Today, the "gay rights" movement demands that we not
only accept their right to practice homosexual conduct, but also approve and affirm it as an acceptable
lifestyle. What's next? Will their next step be to silence their critics by making criticism of
homosexual conduct illegal?
In England:
Homophobia
spies in the classroom. Schools that fail to show enthusiasm in rooting out prejudice against
homosexuals should be reported to the police by pupils and parents, a Home Office report recommended
yesterday [12/27/2006]. It called for parents and children to identify schools that ignore
"homophobic" language in the playground and teachers who produce "homophobic" lessons.
Police
tell Christian couple their view on gays are 'close to a hate crime'. Police
questioned a retired couple for 80 minutes about their "homophobic" views after they asked their
local council if they could display their Christian literature next to gay rights leaflets, it
was reported last night [12/22/2005]. Joe and Helen Roberts said that police officers
warned them that their actions "were close to a hate crime" after they complained to Wyre
Borough Council about its gay rights policies. The couple claimed that the police
told them they were "walking on eggshells".
Billboard
About Ex-Gays Generates News and Hate Mail. The placement of a billboard in
Rockville, Maryland, advocating that homosexuals can change has generated nationwide media
interest as well as "lots of hate mail," said Regina Griggs, executive director of Parents
and Friends of Ex-Gays and Gays, which placed the ad. … "I've been cussed out in every
way possible from Colorado to San Diego," Griggs said.
Homosexual Orientation and the "Ten Percent"
Myth. The psychology behind the advancement of the myth of inherent vs.
acquired sexual orientation is quite simple. If a person is born homosexual,
then he can claim that he has no choice in being created homosexual; in other words, he was,
as the sodomites so shrilly claim, "born that way." This allegation fails to explain
why homosexuals commonly use the terms "alternative lifestyle" and "sexual preference," which both
imply that sexual perverts choose their particular lifestyle.
The Media's Pro-Sodomite Bias: You
will never see a homosexual "bad guy" in the media. This is because homosexuals have a very
heavy influence in the media, and they know that it is absolutely vital to their cause to convince the
public that their condition is genetic and not acquired. It is also absolutely essential to ensure that
no homosexual is ever depicted as having any character flaw or undesirable characteristic, so that the public
will be lulled into believing, perhaps subliminally, that all homosexuals are sweet-natured, basically
harmless folks who should be fully integrated into society without delay.
An Investigation of the Biblical
Evidence Against Homosexuality. Nothing less than "complete and total
acceptance!" This often is the answer given when homosexual activists are asked
what they are seeking from the public in general. Such activists equate acceptance with civil
liberties and equality. They believe that those individuals who do not accept the
homosexual "lifestyle" are committing the unpardonable sin — the sin of intolerance.
Microsoft to Support Gay-Rights
Bill. In a turnaround Friday [5/6/2005], Microsoft Corp. chief executive Steve Ballmer said the
company will support gay rights legislation. Ballmer made the announcement in an e-mail to employees two
weeks after gay rights activists accused the company of withdrawing its support for an anti-discrimination bill
in its home state after an evangelical pastor threatened to launch a national boycott.
Cookie Company Refuses to Crumble Before
Homosexual Agenda. An Indiana bakery has pulled a large ad campaign from a trade magazine in
response to the publication's decision to run a pro-homosexual editorial.
P&G Chairman Gives Thousands to Promote Homosexual
Agenda. A.G. Lafley, CEO of Procter & Gamble, recently gave $5,163 in P&G stock to help the
homosexual community repeal a law in Cincinnati that prohibited giving special rights to homosexuals. In
addition to Lafley's personal contribution, P&G gave $30,000 corporate funds to help push the homosexual
political agenda.
The Gay/PC Speech
Police Strike Again. A UNLV professor under fire for comments he made about homosexuals during a
class lecture last year demanded Friday [2/4/2005] that the university stop threatening to punish him. "I
have done absolutely nothing wrong," said the professor, Hans Hoppe, a conservative libertarian economist with
almost 20 years teaching experience at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
Some see Red over Sox pitch for

"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil;
that put darkness for light, and light for darkness;

Psychiatry
falters, America sleeps. Homosexuality cannot create a society or keep
one going for very long. It operates against the cohesive elements of society. The
sexes are driven in opposite directions, and no society can long endure when either the child
is neglected or the sexes war with each other. Those who reinforce the disintegrating
elements in our society will get no thanks from future generations.
"Gay"
Activists Target Salvation Army Bell Ringers. A legal battle pitting

Homosexual Urban Legends. This
informational service is designed to provide reporters, editors, and other opinion leaders
with accurate information on the relationship between homosexuality and the molestation of
children. It will also expose and debunk dozens of factually inaccurate urban
legends created by homosexual activist groups to promote their political and social agenda.
Homosexuals Molest Children at
a Far Higher Rate than Heterosexuals. Homosexuals account for only 1-2% of
our population based on current surveys. ... In other words, at least 98-99% of our
population is heterosexual in orientation. Homosexual activists routinely claim that
most child molesters are "heterosexual" males, thus shifting the focus away from their
own very high rates of molestation. Since 98-99% of the population
is heterosexual, it is technically correct to say that most molestations are done by
heterosexuals. However, statistics indicate that homosexuals pose a far more serious
threat to children than do heterosexuals.
The "Born Gay" Urban Legend: One of the
most persistent and culturally damaging Homosexual Urban Legends is the erroneous claim by homosexual activists
that they are "born gay" or that their sexual orientation emerges in early adolescence and is fixed and
unchangeable. ... Homosexuals have used this particular urban legend to fight for anti-discrimination laws
and for "hate crime" laws that provide special legal protections for homosexuals not accorded to heterosexuals.
Exposed: The fraudulent claim
that homosexuals are victimized by an epidemic of hate crimes. This Homosexual
Urban Legend is used by homosexuals to lobby for state and federal hate crime laws that
provide enhanced penalties for crimes committed against homosexuals. These laws, in
effect, make heterosexuals second class citizens under the law because they are not a protected
class. A person who assaults a homosexual will receive a stiffer penalty than a person who
assaults a heterosexual for the same crime.
Author
Calls Kinsey Film Propaganda for a Pervert. A movie about controversial
sex researcher Alfred Kinsey is opening this weekend [11/20/2004] across the United
States. Meanwhile, his leading critic claims the cover-up of the truth about Kinsey
continues. Dr. Judith Reisman is a researcher and author who been working for more
than 20 years to debunk what she terms Dr. Alfred Kinsey's "junk science." She
has written a number of books that expose the facts about the doctor's so-called research
and says the new film, Kinsey, is just the latest attempt to conceal the facts about the
man who has been undeservedly touted and lionized as a pioneer in the exploration of
human sexuality.
Promoting
Kinsey, Censoring Grandma. It isn't the acting, the directing, or
the "production values" that are creating all the media buzz about this supposedly
must-see "biopic." No, the major media have been hyping this movie to the skies
because of its subjects: Kinsey himself and the "sexual revolution" that
Kinsey was so instrumental in spawning. Kinsey has become a sort of god
for the sex cult that dominates the higher circles of our major cultural and
educational institutions: the media/entertainment cartel and academia.
The re-whitewashing of Alfred
Kinsey. It could not accurately be said that Kinsey's scientific methods were flawed, because
such a characterization holds that his methods were in fact scientific. Truth be known, they were so
fraudulent that Kinsey could correctly be called one of the most successful snake oil salesmen in American
history.
The Real "Hate Crime": A "hate crime"
amendment was inserted as an amendment to the Department of Defense Appropriations Act 2004 (S.1382).
This bill would censor any discussion or debate about same-sex marriage or special rights, even teaching children
the homosexual lifestyle is wrong and sinful would put you at risk of prosecution. This amendment would
even designate comments supporting traditional values and even parts of the Bible as "hate speech" —
a crime punishable by fines and even jail!
Era of thought police has arrived.
I speak of the ever-growing scope of Canada's Human Rights Commissions and the damage they are doing to our
fundamental right to freedom of expression.
The commissions have also been at work in censoring religious
institutions. The conservative Catholic magazine Catholic Digest and its editor, Father Alphonse de Valk,
have been denounced to the commission for publishing official Catholic teaching regarding homosexuality.
These cases are still pending, but their outcome is predictable. Unlike in a court of law, there is no
presumption of innocence for the defendant, and the commissions have returned a verdict of guilty in
virtually every hate speech case they have ever heard.
Free
speech under attack. Award-winning editorial cartoonist Bruce MacKinnon and his employer, the Halifax
Chronicle-Herald, are as mainstream as Canadian journalism can get. They are now the subject of a complaint
filed with the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission. Make no mistake, we are indeed crossing the Rubicon here.
Government to pastor: Renounce your faith!
A Canadian human rights tribunal ordered a Christian pastor to renounce his faith and never again express moral opposition to
homosexuality, according to a new report. In a decision dated May 30 in the penalty phase of the quasi-judicial
proceedings run by the Alberta Human Rights Tribunal, evangelical pastor Stephen Boisson was banned from expressing his
biblical perspective of homosexuality and ordered to pay $5,000 for "damages for pain and suffering" as well as apologize
to the activist who complained of being hurt.
Did God Make Me Gay? People are
not born gay. Many people think there is a so-called gay gene. Research has been done to find a
genetic link to homosexuality, but actually some research has proved just the opposite — that
homosexuality is not inborn. Its causes are varied but often include childhood trauma such as sexual or
emotional abuse, early exposure to pornography, unmet emotional needs, and a breakdown in the relationship
with the same sex parent.
Philadelphia
Chooses "Gays" Over God. On October 10 Philadelphia police arrested 11 Christians for
committing the "hate crime" and "riot" of singing hymns near a homosexual "Outfest." The
Christians have been charged with a laundry list of felonies, some of which carry prison
penalties. Described by Philadelphia authorities as members of a "criminal conspiracy," the
Christians sang the hymns to protest — peacefully, nonviolently — a
city-sanctioned "Coming Out Day" for homosexuals.
California Governor Signs Drag Queen/Hate
Crime Law. This new hate crime law will further imbed cross-dressing in California law, violate
religious freedom, and punish those who criticize homosexuality.
Speak Now or Forever
Face Criminal Charges. As Americans are fighting the battle over the definition
of marriage, the culture war is also raging on another homosexual front. At stake
is the religious freedom to proclaim Biblical truth about homosexual conduct — a
freedom which legislative measures and court rulings are threatening to extinguish. As
a result of homosexual activists seeking to receive special treatment as a protected class,
the United States is beginning to consider including "sexual orientation" for protection from
hate crimes. These "hate crime" bills could lead to criminalizing Biblical teachings
that condemn homosexual conduct as a sin.

Much-Needed
Honesty about Africa and AIDS: The evidence is there for everyone to see: We've
tried awareness, condom distribution, economic development, and much more. But the problem
persists. That's because the spread of AIDS is inevitably linked to the question of fallen
human nature. Things like fear, weakness, and temptation do not respond to technical expertise
or incentives. They only respond to "transcendent ideals and faiths" and the moral language
they produce.
"Peeping" Is a "Sexual Orientation" in
Canada, Judge Finds. Pro-family leader worries that "hate crime" jurisdiction is being
expanded. In a decision unnoticed at the time in the United States, a Canadian judge declared in
December [2003] that voyeurism, or being a "peeping tom," is a bona fide "sexual lifestyle" covered
under Canada's "sexual orientation" portion of its "hate crime" law.
Hate Crimes: Beyond Virtual Reality. The
author observes that (1) Hate crimes reached an eight-year low in the last reporting period (2002),
(2) numerous factors contribute to an inaccurate impression of the prevalence of hate crimes
against homosexuals, and (3) hate crimes against religious people are underreported.
Homosexuality: Current
Thinking & Biblical Guidelines. Despite the fact that virtually all societies
throughout history have condemned homosexuality, gay activists continue to make remarkable
progress in convincing Americans, even Christians, to abandon efforts to resist their
demands. Recent incidents — including the popular claim that Christians who
oppose homosexuality have fueled an atmosphere of hate against gays — suggest that
even the most reasonable discussion of the issue may now be deemed bigoted by gay activists
and their supporters.
The Bible, The Church, and
Homosexuality: Although the leading Christian churches in the United States
continue to view homosexual behavior as outside the realm of appropriate Christian conduct,
revisionist scholars within their respective communions continue a campaign to re-interpret
or ignore biblical teaching regarding homosexuality. Exposing the faulty reasoning behind
the gay hermeneutic, this booklet demonstrates how homosexuality is unambiguously found
wanting by Scripture and tradition.
There's nothing
"gay" about gender-disorientation pathology. This week, hordes of extroverted homosexuals
congregated in Orlando at Disney's Pleasure Island for the annual exercise in societal entropy they call
"Gay Days at Disney." Fortunately, the gaudy and lurid displays of sexual deviance at Disney are not
typical of the public etiquette maintained by most homosexuals.
Not Exactly What Walt Intended.
Regularly, AFA receives e-mails and letters asking why we continue the Disney boycott. Besides Disney's
production of movies with anti-family themes and publication of books that promote the homosexual lifestyle, one
of the primary reasons is Disney's open-armed welcome of the annual "Gay Days" celebration, held each June.
Homosexual GOP group won't back Bush. The
nation's largest organization of homosexual Republicans has voted not to endorse President Bush, saying his push

The Log Cabin Just Burned
Down. If there was any doubt about whether the Log Cabin Republicans belong in the GOP's "big

Margaret
Sanger: Intellectual moron. For months, readers have been asking me to do a profile of the
life of Margaret Sanger, in order to expose the truth about an evil woman who has been protected for decades by
the likes of Planned Parenthood, radical feminists, and various media elites.
Swedish "Hate Crimes" Law Could Target Christians; Senate Vote
Raises U.S. Concern. Pro-family advocates, noting the recent passage in the U.S. Senate of a bill
that would include "sexual orientation" in hate-crime laws, fear that the criminalization of public opposition
to homosexuality will also become a reality here in America.
It has already begun.
Swedish Pastor Sentenced to
Month in Jail for Offending Homosexuals. A Swedish court has sentenced
Ake Green, a pastor belonging to the Pentecostal movement, to a month in prison, under
a law against incitement, after he was found guilty of having offended homosexuals in a sermon.

Philadelphia Phillies
Hosting Another Pro-Homosexual Event: Repent America director Michael
Marcavage says "Gay Day" at the ballpark is just another example of how the homosexual
agenda has infiltrated the country and gained more acceptance. At last year's inaugural
event, Phillies executives had Marcavage and his friends escorted from Veterans Stadium for
holding up a banner proclaiming homosexuality as sinful and offering freedom through Christ.
Homosexuality: Fact
and Fiction. "If homosexuality is neither a normal nor a healthy lifestyle — as
I believe this article demonstrates — then the most loving thing we can do
is to help homosexuals realize this and offer them our help and encouragement."
Thought
Crime Becomes a Reality in Canada. A number of aspects of the new law are
profoundly disturbing. For one thing, there already exists in Canadian law abundant
protection of human rights, including protection against discrimination on grounds of "sexual
orientation." What is distinctive about the new law is the criminalization of negative
criticism of homosexuality as such.
Survey Says
Only 1% homosexual, not 10%. Activists in Canada are disputing statistics from
the government in Ottawa released yesterday [6/15/2004] that show just 1 percent of the
nation's population identify themselves as homosexual. The figures from the Canadian
Community Health Survey also indicate 0.7 percent of Canadians said they were bisexual,
the Canadian Press news service reported.
In-Depth
Analysis of the Homosexual Lifestyle: As the homosexual agenda grows
increasingly hostile toward mainstream traditional values, it becomes imperative that
we understand why homosexuality should not be encouraged or validated by the public
policies of America.
It really is
elementary: Ex-gays exist. This video is extremely informative, but
therein lies its biggest problem. The video simply tries to do too much. Its
primary point is simply that ex-gays exist — that change is possible for those who
wish to do so — and it does present this effectively. Despite these disappointments,
however, this documentary is the best of its kind, simply by
virtue of the fact that it's the only one of its kind.
Are We "Singling Out"
Homosexuals? [Former President] Carter said he believes homosexuality is a sin,
although not as "serious" a sin as adultery. It would seem Mr. Carter believes the best
way to deal with sin in the church is to decide the level or severity of sin. After
establishing the sin quotient, you then tolerate or encourage the lesser sin.
MTV to Launch
New Homosexual-Themed Channel. On May 25, [2004,] MTV Networks announced the
launching of a 24-hour cable television channel which will be specifically geared toward gay,
lesbian, bisexual, and transgender viewers. You may recall that MTV Networks, owned by
Viacom, was responsible for producing the Janet Jackson Super Bowl halftime fiasco.
NYC to change ID rules for
transgendered. The city wants to make it easier for transgender New Yorkers to switch the sex
listed on their birth certificate (sic) even without undergoing sex-change surgery, putting the city at the
forefront of efforts to redefine gender. Under present city rules, only people who can show proof of
surgery qualify for getting a revised birth certificate. Even then, the only change made is the
elimination of any reference to gender on the document.
Senate Passes
Homosexual "Hate Crimes" Bill. One month after Canada passed a law potentially
criminalizing biblical texts that denounce homosexuality, the United States Senate has passed
a "hate crimes" bill, which may eventually be construed to criminalize biblical texts that
denounce homosexuality. Senators Ted Kennedy (D-MA) and Gordon Smith (R-OR) introduced
this as an amendment to the Defense Authorization Act, making it more difficult for politicians
to oppose.
Follow-up
NOW: Transgendered
People Need "Hate Crimes" Law. Only days after the U.S. Senate passed "hate
crimes" legislation offering special protections to homosexuals, the National Organization
for Women is apparently appalled that the legislation did not also include transgendered
people in the language of the legislation.
Is
Ted Kennedy more interested in defending the U.S. or the gay rights agenda? Knowing that President
Bush would veto it as a stand-alone bill, Sen. Kennedy attached to the recently passed bill authorizing
$150 billion for Iraq and Afghanistan an amendment he calls the Mathew Shepard Local Law Enforcement Hate
Crimes Prevention Act of 2007.
"Hate Speech" is Now Called
"Harassment by Communication". We've heard of laws in the Netherlands and Canada
that penalize preachers for using the Bible to condemn homosexuality. Now it's
happening in America. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has added an amendment to
its "hate-crimes" law that covers something called "harassment by communication." Anthony
Picarello, chief counsel for the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, said, "The wording is
broad enough that it could be applied (to religious speakers), and that's something… that
the people who crafted the language had in mind."
Homosexuality and Children: There
is much more to what is sometimes called "the homosexual agenda" than simply demands for
anti-discrimination laws and health insurance benefits. The Family Research Council
believes that the pro-homosexual movement does have a significant impact on
children — and that the impact is clearly harmful.
Lambda

store bathroom.
Do
Homosexuals Have a "Right" to Others' Silence? In the Bahamas, a crowd of
Christians, led by their ministers, recently gathered to protest the arrival of a "gay cruise
ship." The crowd carried banners and chanted, "Gay ways are not God's ways." One
protester held her nose to show her disapproval. Whether you agree with the type of
protest, it is frightening to see how the U.S. Embassy reacted.
Do
Christians "Obsess" about Homosexuality? It's true that Christians may be
disproportionately bothered by homosexuality. But there are good reasons for
that. Homosexuality may be no more vile in God's eyes than pornography, adultery or
any other sexual sin. But as evil as those other sins are, their practitioners don't
pose the overt threat to our society that the homosexual agenda does.
The Gay Gene: Going, Going…
Gone! Many misconceptions exist about the supposedly inborn nature of complex
behaviors such as homosexuality. Most of these are due to media reports that present
scientific studies in selective sound bites. In reality, no scientific studies show
an inborn cause for any such complex behaviors.
Activist Targets Children
and Teens In New Book. In a recently-released book that publisher Penguin
Putnam says is for "children and teenagers," homosexual author Eric Marcus endlessly spouts
homosexual propaganda, trashes religion and attempts to isolate children from
parental authority.
Judge Allows Pro-Homosexual
Children's Books In Library. A storm of controversy over children's access to
pro-homosexual materials led to the passage of a simple law in Wichita Falls, Texas, which
would allow citizens to ask for such books to be shifted to an adult section of the public
library. A federal judge, however, who found that approach unreasonable, overturned
the statute.
Temple Junior Dragged to
Psych Ward After Dispute Over Blasphemous Play. Officials at Temple University
in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, allegedly had student Michael A. Marcavage involuntarily
committed to a state mental hospital after he initiated a Christian response to a
blasphemous play performed on campus.
Compassionate Society Should
Discourage Deadly Homosexual Behavior. As with smoking, homosexual behavior's
"second hand" effects threaten public health.
Protests Lead to Removal
of "Diversity" Bumper Stickers. What began with letters of protest from concerned
citizens, and culminated with a protest by a veteran police officer, has resulted in a Michigan
city reversing its decision to display its new logo on city vehicles. The logo features a
six-color rainbow — an exact reproduction of the official "gay pride" flag.
Mainstream Media Applaud Showtime's
Perversion. America Family Association is troubled by many of the nation's top
print media outlets, after they issued glowing reviews for cable channel Showtime's "Queer
As Folk," a new series about sex-obsessed homosexual men.
Principles Which Guide
AFA's Opposition to the Homosexual Agenda: [#4] We oppose the homosexual
movement's efforts to convince our society that their behavior is normal because we fear
the judgement of God on our nation. [#5] The homosexual movement is a progressive
outgrowth of the sexual revolution of the past 40 years and will lead to the normalization
of even more deviant behavior.
Media
recruiting less credibility. Following the Pew Research Center's latest
survey, which shows the public's continued distrust of the American media, one might
think the press giants would be more careful about their public associations
and agendas. One would be wrong.
Hawaii Log Cabin Chapter Folds. The Hawaiian
chapter of the Log Cabin Republicans, a national homosexual political group, has disbanded because they don't

Dark Days at Disney World: When the
company fell on hard times in the 1980s, Roy Disney — Walt Disney's nephew — turned over
leadership of the company to entertainment executive Michael Eisner, who brought Disney out of its doldrums and
is now the company's largest individual stockholder. Mr. Eisner incorporated his own
agenda — one that is distinctly at odds with the family values image carefully nurtured by founder
Walt Disney.
Four U.S. Companies Named Most
Pro-Homosexual. Four corporations - AT&T, IBM, Kodak and Avis - have been named as the
most pro-homosexual companies in America, according to this month's OUT magazine. The companies are among
those rated highest in the Human Rights Campaign's (HRC) Corporate Equality Index, 2003 edition. HRC is
the largest homosexual pressure group in America.
Born or Bred? Science does not
support the claim that homosexuality is genetic. Homosexual activists love to insist that
"science" proves they're born that way … but they're not.
"Jesus Never Said Anything About
Homosexuality, Did He?" Scriptures reveal Jesus' clear intention for human sexuality.
Christians Fear Effects of Canada's New
Hate Crimes Law. Signed into law, the bill punishes speech critical of any "sexual orientation."
The Red-Blue Divide: Powerful
elites of the nation's mainline denominations — the bishops and clergy, as well as the
denominational seminary faculty, headquarters and media staff — have engaged in a theological
tug-of-war against the vast and significantly more conservative and orthodox members who fill church
pews. The main contentious issues? Primarily homosexuality, with abortion and the war against
terror running closely behind.
Homosexual Orwellian
Newspeak: Activist homosexuals have done an effective job of destroying the real meaning of
"discrimination." Every day you see the word "discrimination" in your local newspapers, mainstream
magazines, and on television. And every time this word is used in association with homosexual activism,
it is used in a negative context. We are being repeatedly told that it is wrong to "discriminate" against
homosexuals who are typically compared to blacks as a persecuted minority. Anyone who attempts to
criticize homosexuals for their deviant sexual practices is compared to a member of the KKK, or
a Neo-Nazi group.
Official says the Bible "exposes
homosexuals to hatred". Canadian tribunal rules paper can't run ad with critical scriptures.
Homosexual Parenting: Placing Children at
Risk. The evidence demonstrates incontrovertibly that the homosexual lifestyle is inconsistent
with the proper raising of children. Homosexual relationships are characteristically unstable and are
fundamentally incapable of providing children the security they need. Bell and Weinberg, in their classic
study of male and female homosexuality, found that 43 percent of white male homosexuals had sex with five
hundred or more partners, with 28 percent having 1,000 or more sex partners.
They
Want Your Children. Young people are being encouraged to adopt the "gay"
lifestyle, even as they are warned against the evils of smoking.
The
Lavender Revolution: In contemporary popular culture, any expression of
opposition to homosexuality, no matter how temperate and intellectually sound, is
immediately free-associated with violent bigotry. Having defined the rules of
engagement in America's Culture War, the homosexual "rights" movement is
proceeding with its assault upon what remains of America's sexual morality.
Emasculating
the Military: The Legalized Homosexuality Edict. President Clinton's
decision to lift the ban on homosexuals in the military defies common sense.
Why
Ask Presidential Candidates About Gays In The Military? For some reason, the
"gays in the military" issue seems to come up only in presidential elections. However,
the law that keeps gays out of the military comes from Congress, not the President or the
military itself.
Unmentionable
Vice Goes Mainstream: Homosexuality's rapid rise from unmentionable vice
to celebrated minority status is part of a campaign to subvert Judeo-Christian culture.
Rosie O'Donnell
Becomes Poster Child For Homosexual Adoptions: O'Donnell
confesses that she deliberately kept her homosexuality a secret so she could then
use her children to promote the homosexual adoption of children.
Science
Does Not Support the Claim That Homosexuality Is Genetic. Homosexual
activists love to insist that "science" proves they're born that way… but they're
not. The debate over homosexual "marriage" often becomes focused on whether
homosexuality is a learned behavior or a genetic trait.
Virginia Voters
Outraged At George Allen's Support of Pro-Homosexual Legislation. On
June 15 [2004], Sen. George Allen (R-Virginia) horrified his constituents when
he cast a vote against family values by adding "sexual orientation" to the Federal
Hate Crimes Act. Sen. Allen's support of the homosexual lobby directly contradicts
his promise during his campaign for U.S. Senate in 2000 to oppose pro-homosexual
legislation.
"We ought to be disturbed when judges circumvent the lawmaking process and assume
the powers of legislating. We also should be troubled by the ease with which these
judges are willing to discard clear laws and legislative intent because it fails their
perception of rationality. Constitutional government is threatened when judges
alter the definition of things and reinterpret duly approved laws in order to
achieve their own policy preferences."

Homosexual Parenting Studies Are Flawed, Report
Says: Dozens of studies about kids raised by gay parents were mischaracterized for political
reasons so as not to draw the ire of homosexual activists or encourage anti-gay rhetoric, a new report suggests.
The
Bible and Homosexuality: Until the Culture War began in earnest in the
late 1960's, homosexuality was clearly seen as contrary to America's Christian
culture. Homosexual acts were illegal in all 50 states. Churches were virtually
unanimous in their condemnation of homosexuality as sin. The medical and psychiatric
communities debated whether homosexuality was a "mental" or "emotional" illness, but
no one was openly promoting homosexuality as positive.
The
Degrading of America: What is happening to our cities? The family
structure is in a nose dive. Living together has replaced the sanctity of
marriage. Illegitimacy has almost become the rule. Sex has become a national
pastime. And, homosexuality is establishing its own distorted version
of the family.

Dance
Mary, Dance. The homosexual activists aren't so much concerned with respecting
an individual's right to privacy, as they are with forcing social change. If that
means harassing the Vice President's daughter, so be it. If it means undermining
the standards and norms of a culture they never felt a part of, even better.
Just
Say No to Sodomy. The media frenzy in reporting the vents surrounding the
Gianni Versace and Andrew Cunanan tragedy provide a grim reminder to us all that lurking
behind the fairyland hype and propaganda promoting the homosexual agenda is a real
world of pain, suffering, sexual exploitation, personal abuse, hatred, diseases
and gruesome deaths.
The homosexual community has as its goals:
• The implementation of homosexual, bi-sexual, and transgendered curriculum at all levels of education.
• The lowering of the age of consent for homosexual and heterosexual sex.
• The legalization of homosexual marriages.
• Custody, adoption and foster care rights for homosexuals, lesbians, and transgendered people.
• The redefinition of family to include the full diversity of all family structures.
• Access to all programs of the Boy Scouts of America.
• Affirmative action for homosexuals.
• The inclusion of sex-change operations under a universal health care
plan.*
SCOTUS Ruling in Sodomy Case: A
"Declaration of Secular Supremacy". Both critics and supporters of Thursday's [6/26/2003]
Supreme Court ruling legalizing homosexual sex appear to agree on one thing: the decision holds the
potential for far-reaching effects on the nation's culture.
Sodomy ruling, part II: a
liberal goldmine. The Supreme Court's ruling in Lawrence v. Texas (the sodomy case) is a
veritable gold mine for liberals and the shifting values they hold dear.
Trying to outrun Lawrence.
Dissenting in Lawrence, Justice Antonin Scalia warned that the decision "effectively decrees the end of all
morals legislation." It was a prediction the majority made no effort to refute.
Saw This One
Coming. Anyone who claims to be surprised by this case has not been paying attention to American
law. In Lawrence v. Texas, the Supreme Court found that "consenting" adults had a right to privacy
when it comes to sexual relations — any kind of sexual relations. As Justice Scalia pointed out in his
stinging dissent, the logic employed by the majority of the court could be applied to laws against "bigamy,
same-sex marriage [and] adult incest."
Sodomy
Decision is a "Battering Ram" in the Hands of Homosexual Activists. Family
values activist Gary Bauer calls the ruling a "disaster for the pro-family side of
America's culture war." He believes homosexual activists will use this decision to
promote same-sex marriages — and that, he says, "will open the floodgates." … "I've
argued repeatedly that if we have same-sex marriage, you cannot then constitutionally stop
a man who wants to marry three women," he says. "People say that's nuts — but legally, one
follows the other."
The Three Stooges: In the sodomy case,
Kennedy and O'Connor proved themselves virtuosos of the non sequitur. They agreed that sodomy laws
"discriminate" against homosexuals as a "class" or "group."
The Twin Sisters of Hell freed by
Supreme Court: Abortion and sodomy are now unchained; the U.S. judicial system's assault on
America is complete.
Supreme Sodomy: Look how far this

Sons of Thunder: "The nature of
AIDS is to feast on promiscuity…. Southern Africa has no other means available to break the vicious
cycle, except to change everyone's sexual behavior — and that isn't happening." (Time,
February 12, 2001)
Sodomy ruling damages
freedom: President John Adams famously said, "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and
religious people." In light of Adams' admonition, how should we view the Supreme Court's decision to
strike down Texas's sodomy law?
Homosexual Lobbyist in White House? If
So, Who Is It? Thanks to the controversy surrounding recent actions in the Republican Party, the
issue of homosexuality appears to have moved to the front of the conservative, pro-family debate. Long-time
supporters of the GOP are asking: Does my party really believe in traditional values? Or is it just
lip service?
"Homosexuals-Can-Change" Research Published
by APA: While the American Psychological Association still officially rejects the possibility
that homosexuals can change their sexual orientation, it surprisingly published a recent article presenting
the opposite view. Dr. Warren Throckmorton's article, "Initial Empirical and Clinical Findings Concerning
the Change Process for Ex-Gays," examined previous studies of individuals who tried to leave the homosexual
lifestyle and found that, for some homosexuals, change is certainly possible. The article was published
in the APA's Professional Psychology: Research and Practice.
Homosexuality
Is Key to Some College Scholarships: Need money for college tuition? A group of employees

Would the feds arrest Mom & Pop
America for hate crimes?: Have we awakened to a different planet? Does the new secretary
of education, Rod Paige, know how serious this is? Does John Ashcroft? Or do all Americans now
agree that homosexuality is just like heterosexuality? Are critics of homosexuality all criminals?
Motorola seen promoting
homosexuality: "Homophobia" workshops and other activism are creating tension in the workplace,
according to a Motorola engineer, who prefers not to be named. He told WorldNetDaily there is a "quiet
anger" among many non-homosexual employees who support the traditional definition of the family over the
homosexual activism supported by corporate management "under the guise of ... diversity."
Homosexual Researchers
Debunk "Born Gay" Urban Legend: The "Born Gay" urban legend is actually being exposed as false
by homosexual researchers themselves. Homosexual researcher Dean Hamer, for example, notes that
homosexuality is not "purely genetic…environmental factors play a role.
Zero Tolerance: Tolerance
has its limits. Just ask Ron Greer — firefighter, pastor, and community activist. When
Mr. Greer criticized homosexuality, City Hall suspended him. He couldn't even conduct a
church event without being shouted down. Today, he's engaged in a struggle for his own religious freedom
and freedom of speech — a liberty that increasingly is coming under assault from the forces
of "tolerance" nationwide.

California
Lawmakers Advance Homosexual Rights Measure
Robert
Knight: Getting to the Truth About Moral Relativism. "I don't just oppose the gay rights
movement," he said simply, but with the conviction that makes his opponents increasingly reluctant to debate
him. "I oppose the whole destruction of the Judeo-Christian ethic in American society."
"[In Canada] if you read biblical verses about homosexuality on the air,
you may be 'sowing the seeds for a climate of violence that could
lead to a hate crime.' That's the reasoning. That's why hate crimes
laws are geared to ultimately shutting down freedom of speech,
freedom of religion and freedom of assembly. They're not about
enhancing criminal law because any criminal actions committed
against either minorities or homosexuals are already illegal."
- Robert H. Knight, Culture and Family Institute.
Cabinets Defy White House, Host
"Gay Pride" Programs: When President Bush refused to formally recognize Gay Pride Month earlier
in June, Cabinet members and executive offices didn't take the hint and fall in step with the White
House. Instead of dropping their offices' homosexual-rights celebrations, they picked up where they
left off last year, when then-President Bill Clinton openly endorsed Gay Pride Month.
Groundbreaking "gay-rights"
bill stalled: Critics say the law would require private religious employers to hire
homosexuals. The bill amends New York State's human rights law by adding "sexual orientation" to
various non-discrimination statutes, including those that prevent "any employer" from discriminating
against applicants based on sex, race, creed, nationality and other traditional criteria. Neither
current law nor the legislative proposal make an exception for faith-based employers. Only
private, religious schools are mentioned as having some form of exemption, but only in the admittance
of students — not the hiring of teachers.
New Jersey Court

appeals court ruled that discrimination against transsexuals is not allowed under state law and that

group is challenging proposed "gay rights" legislation in Michigan, saying it may eventually
be interpreted as grounds for banning Mother's Day celebrations. Under the law, conservatives
fear, Mother's Day might be construed as discriminatory against homosexual relationships.

"Do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of
God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers,
