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?)
Homosexuality is especially repugnant because it is being proudly promoted by militant activists. Even in
Sodom and Gomorrah, they didn't have parades to show off their sin. And why do you suppose Sodom and Gomorrah
were firebombed by God himself?
Throughout 6,000 years of recorded history, homosexuality was universally recognized and condemned as perversion — until the
last half of the 20th century, when it was incrementally popularized by television:
first as a humorous and harmless aberration, then as an "alternative lifestyle," and more recently as a normal and
natural way of life.
Laws written to punish "hate crimes" have been put in place to prohibit public denunciation
of homosexuality and eliminate reasoned rebuttal. Canada is way ahead of the United States on this path. The prosecution of hate crimes
will expand to include all dissent and rhetoric opposing homosexual behavior, on the internet, in print, and especially in church pulpits.
In other words, web pages like this one will soon be illegal.
The acceptance of homosexuality as normal behavior is merely a tool in an ongoing campaign to
eliminate Christianity. Surprisingly,
those who advocate homosexuality have no quarrel with Islam, which is completely unforgiving of
homosexuals. It's all about outlawing the free exercise of Christianity.

Amendment to define marriage as the union of one man and one woman, excluding all other combinations, has

Background, overview and recap articles:
The 'Transgender'
Endgame. First of all, let it be noted the lightning speed in which we've descended down this wicked
slope. With nothing in science or morality to back the notion that "gender is a spectrum" or that one can actually
"transition" from one sex to another, in less than a decade we've gone from the foolish and evil notion that marriage is
whatever we define it to be to sex (gender) is whatever we define it to be. As is the case with same-sex "marriage,"
children are again victims. Not only children, but parents of vulnerable and deceived children are victims as
well. In early 2019, in Public Discourse, the journal of the Witherspoon Institute, five mothers anonymously published
their concerns over their supposed "transgender" children. [...] [W]hat we are dealing with here is not mere mental
illness. This is evil — pure and simple evil right out of the pit of hell. We will not win this fight
unless it is dealt with as such.
Thankful
for Signs of Challenging Cultural Insanity. Decent people do not want to be thought of as bigoted. Once
LGBTQ activists successfully sold their absurd lie that anyone who does not bless the LGBT lifestyle is a bigot, it was game
over. When liberal activists on the Supreme Court redefined marriage, they wrongfully gifted homosexual behavior the
same anti-discrimination protection as blacks. Identical twins share the exact same DNA. If homosexuality were
genetic, if one identical twin is homosexual, 100% of the time, the other twin would be also. Research on identical
twin males found that when one identical twin was homosexual, 48% of the time, his identical twin was not. This proves
that homosexuality is not genetic. In other words, the LGBTQ narrative, "I was born this way," is propaganda.
The Truth About Deviants
and Deviance. [Scroll down] In contrast to polygamy and concubinage, God held a zero-tolerance policy for
some other sexual sins, including homosexuality and bestiality. Indeed, Leviticus chapter 18 provides the specific list
of sexual and sex-related sins that were not only capital crimes, but His specific justification for purging the Canaanites
from the Holy Land. [...] These particular sins deviated so far from His One Flesh Paradigm that God would not tolerate
them. And of these sins, male homosexuality was singled out for special emphasis, being the first form of sexual sin in
the Leviticus 18 list to be designated "toeva" (abomination), the harshest term of condemnation in the Hebrew language.
God's consistent warning from Genesis to Revelation that this specific sexual sin would always draw His wrath is one of the
clearest teachings of the Bible for those brave enough to accept it: [...] This is why homosexuals have accurately been called
"deviants" from time immemorial, and why authentic Christianity never condones or accommodates homosexuality or any of the
sexual sins God condemns.
Doctor
Sends Breathtaking Letter to Houston Mayor About 'Gay Rights Parade'. The LGBTQ is a political movement.
The goal of the homosexual political movement is to pass laws that force businesses, schools, governments, churches, and
every person, against their will, to accept, affirm and celebrate those who promote and participate in homosexual
behavior. They want homosexuals and other sexual immoral individuals to be granted minority status based upon the fact
that they have chosen to commit immoral sexual actions. No one should be granted minority status based upon their
chosen behavior, whether its moral or immoral. The homosexual political movement wants the LGBTQ curriculum to be
taught to children, starting in kindergarten. The purpose of this is to desensitize children to their aberrant,
perverse and evil actions, so that they can more easily recruit them into their lifestyle. They promote Drag Queen Story
Time for children 10 and under in public libraries. These drag queens who read to children are despicable pedophiles.
We
Must Reject LGBTQ Craziness Becoming America's Accepted Norm. [Scroll down] Dr. Michelle Cretella,
M.D., president of American College of Pediatricians, explained that if a brain was born the wrong sex due to factors before
birth, every single identical twin would have the same gender identity every time. They do not. Identical twins
have identical DNA. Therefore, if transgenderism were in the genes, 100% of the time, both twins would be either transgender
or non-transgender. Studies show that if one twin is transgender, 72% of the time the other twin is normal. This
proves that post-birth events primarily impact your identity. In other words, transgenderism is a mental disorder.
Leftism:
High on Buzzwords, Low on Thought. "Homophobia" is a rickety neologism intended to encompass virtually every
variety of analysis of that leftist insistence that homosexuality and its offspring "transgender" and so forth have no
problems. In fact, there are at least three different and usually conflicting approaches to this issue. Judaism
and Christianity in their historic forms consider homosexuality a sin. Darwinists, who disagree with Judaism and
Christianity in almost every respect, find homosexuality, which dramatically diminishes natural procreation, to be an
evolutionary dead end. Psychologists, decades ago, considered homosexuality a disorder. Why, then, lump all these
reactions into a single "homophobia" label? It prevents any real serious analysis or reflection.
How
Do Liberals Flunk Science? Let Us Count the Ways. [T]here are only two sexes: male and female.
There is no such thing as a "gender spectrum." [...] In 1993, when the journal Science published a study by Dean Hamer (et
al.) that strongly suggested the existence of a gene for homosexuality, an eager and complicit media celebrated.
National Public Radio trumpeted the findings. Newsweek's cover asked, "Gay Gene?" The Wall Street Journal announced,
"Research Points toward a Gay Gene..." The New York Times noted, "Report Suggests Homosexuality Is Linked to Genes."
However, noted psychiatrist, physicist, and author (Homosexuality and the Politics of Truth) Jeffrey Satinover
concluded that "the Hamer study is seriously flawed." Many genetic researchers also quickly took issue with Hamer's
study. Yet the myth grew. Today, it is commonplace for liberals in the media, Hollywood, and like-minded
politicians again to ignore the real science and perpetuate the falsehood that homosexuality is strictly genetic.
The science is settled.
Johns
Hopkins Psychiatrist: 'Transgendered Men Don't Become Women,' They Become 'Feminized Men,' 'Impersonators'.
Dr. Paul R. McHugh, the Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University and former
psychiatrist-in-chief for Johns Hopkins Hospital, who has studied transgendered people for 40 years, said it is a scientific
fact that "transgendered men do not become women, nor do transgendered women become men." All such people, he explained in
an article for The Witherspoon Institute, "become feminized men or masculinized women, counterfeits or impersonators of the
sex with which they 'identify.'" Dr. McHugh, who was psychiatrist-in-chief at Johns Hopkins Hospital for 26 years,
the medical institute that had initially pioneered sex-change surgery — and later ceased the practice —
stressed that the cultural meme, or idea that "one's sex is fluid and a matter of choice" is extremely damaging, especially
to young people.
Gender
Dysphoria in Children. Gender dysphoria (GD) of childhood describes a psychological condition in which children
experience a marked incongruence between their experienced gender and the gender associated with their biological sex.
When this occurs in the pre-pubertal child, GD resolves in the vast majority of patients by late adolescence. Currently
there is a vigorous, albeit suppressed, debate among physicians, therapists, and academics regarding what is fast becoming
the new treatment standard for GD in children. This new paradigm is rooted in the assumption that GD is innate, and
involves pubertal suppression with gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists followed by the use of cross-sex
hormones — a combination that results in the sterility of minors. A review of the current literature
suggests that this protocol is founded upon an unscientific gender ideology, lacks an evidence base, and violates the
long-standing ethical principle of "First do no harm."
Transgender
Identification Position Statement. CMDA affirms the historic and enduring Christian understanding of humankind
as having been created male and female. We live in a fallen world (Genesis 3), and we are all fallen creatures with a
sinful nature (Romans 3:9-12). The fall is expressed in nature and in humanity in many ways, including sexuality.
Confusion of gender identity is but one example of the fall, as are also marital breakdown and sexual immorality
(Romans 1:24-32; Ephesians 5:3). A lifestyle that is directed by pursuing sexual desires or governed by
personal sexual fulfillment misses the divinely ordained purpose of sex, which is for procreation and for facilitating
unity in the lifelong commitment of marriage between one man and one woman, which fosters a secure and nurturing environment
for children and which reflects the unity of Christ and the church (Exodus 20:1-18; Leviticus 20:10-21;
Romans 1; Ephesians 5:23-33).
Gender ideology
has no basis in science and harms all children. [Scroll down to Page 9.] The physicians also refuted the
claim that 'transgenderism' is innate, and likewise asserted in their statement that it has no basis in science. The
idea that a child with gender dysphoria is born with a brain that is of the opposite sex of the body is a "fanciful claim,"
they said, one that is "biologically impossible," and which persists in the culture despite scientific objections by medical
experts and researchers. Noting that every cell of the human body contains identical copies of a person's sex
chromosomes, they stated that the brains of biologically normal infants are imprinted prenatally by their own endogenous sex
hormones at eight weeks of age. "Every infant boy is born with a brain imprinted by testosterone; every infant girl is
born with a brain imprinted by estrogen," they wrote. "Brain studies of transgender adults that purport to show
differences in brain microstructures are of notoriously poor quality and more than likely reflect the fact that long-term
transgender behavior alters brain microstructures." They also noted that the latter is known as the well-established
phenomenon of neuroplasticity, whereby behavior alters the chemical and physical structure of the brain.
Timely news and commentary:
Snapchat
is a Transgender Propaganda and Grooming Machine. During a Thursday [2/25/2021] Senate confirmation hearing,
Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul pressed President Joe Biden's transgender nominee for assistant Health and Human
Services secretary, Rachel Levine. "Do you believe that minors are capable of making such a life-changing decision as
changing one's sex?" Paul asked. Levine wouldn't answer. Why would it be controversial to make sure people are of
consenting age before they undergo irreversible plastic surgery? Answer: the culture. The number of transgender
Gen Zers is about 10 times higher than that of their parents in Generation X. In a tweet Wednesday, The Daily Wire's Matt
Walsh pointed out that the uptick in gender-dysphoric children is not a "natural or organic development." It is the result of
popular culture and our corrupt school system "actively recruit[ing] children into the LGBT ranks."
The
'World's Largest Bookstore' Gets Into the Censorship Business. Just a week ago, I received an email from Ryan
Anderson, who was recently tapped to lead the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington, D.C., and who wrote When
Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment for me at Encounter Books back in 2018. A reader who had
tried to order his book from Amazon reported he was unable to find the book listed on the site. I looked myself and,
yes, that reader was correct. Other books by Anderson are listed, as are various books on the "transgender" phenomenon,
including a now out-of-print title that purports to rebut When Harry Became Sally. But the book itself is nowhere
to be found. How odd. The book was controversial when it was first published — the New York Times
devoted not one but two columns to abusing it. But it sold well and, outside the precincts of wokedom, it was regarded as
what it is: a thoughtful, compassionate, and well-researched discussion of the devastating psychological costs of
embracing the latest fad of sexual exoticism.
There is no need to burn books if they can't be sold in the first place.
'The
End Of Conservative Books': Amazon Quietly Bans Books They Deem Offensive, 'Hate Speech'. Conservatives are
sounding the alarm about an updated Amazon policy that bans books the ubiquitous billion-dollar company deems offensive or
includes so-called "hate speech." As noted by The Daily Wire, Amazon has ramped up its censorship on conservative views
in recent weeks. For example, a popular documentary on U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was banned from their
streaming service this past week. Before that move, the company deplatformed conservative Ryan Anderson's book critical
of gender theory, "When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Movement." When Just the News reached out
to Amazon over the ban on Anderson's book, the outlet said the company directed them to a page outlining their "Content
Guidelines for Books." Under a section labeled "Offensive Content," Amazon states that they "don't sell certain content
including content that we determine is hate speech, promotes the abuse or sexual exploitation of children, contains
pornography, glorifies rape or pedophilia, advocates terrorism, or other material we deem inappropriate or offensive."
The Editor says...
You can't buy books that are offensive to homosexuals or in any way critical of transvestites, because they're controversial or
offensive. But I presume you can still buy 50 Shades of Grey, Lolita, Tropic of Cancer, The Da Vinci Code,
The Communist Manifesto, The Anarchist Cookbook, or American Psycho. Amazon's outrage is highly selective.
The
Democrats' 'Woke' Equality Act: Another Awful Idea That Would Radically Change America. In principle, the
law bars employment and other discrimination against LGBTQ workers. In reality, it disenfranchises large swaths of
American society, from religious institutions and women's rights groups to small businesses and nonprofits. Legal
legerdemain is key here. The proposed law erases biologically based sex definitions and protections under the 1964
Civil Rights Act and replaces them with the phrase "sexual orientation and gender identity," a legal definition so broad as
to be almost meaningless. So if you believe in traditional marriage and sex roles, or don't agree there are 64
different genders (or even 112, as some assert), you now officially and legally become a bigot, for all that implies.
7
Radical Demands In The Equality Act. House Democrats have passed the radical Equality Act once again, claiming
it will merely amend federal civil rights law to ensure sexual orientation and gender identity are protected classes, even
though the Constitution already provides protection for the rights of all American citizens, regardless of their "identity
group." If enacted, however, the Equality Act would have a major impact on children and their parents, potentially
upending the culture as American families now know it. Lawsuits filed against Americans who adhere to the science of
biological sex and the First Amendment rights of citizens would now have a federal law backing them up that states gender
identity supersedes biological sex.
GOP
Senators Denounce Amazon Censorship of Anti-Transgender Book. Two prominent U.S. senators have criticized
Amazon's heavy-handedness in erasing a bestselling book by scholar Ryan Anderson on transgenderism. Sens. Marco
Rubio (R-FL) and Josh Hawley (R-MO) have blasted the online tech giant for its overt censorship of uncomfortable ideas by
de-listing Dr. Anderson's When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment. "American
oligarchs, cheered on by leftist politicians, are conducting digital book burnings," Rubio tweeted Tuesday [2/23/2021].
"@Amazon banned a thoughtful & well researched book on a complicated issue."
LGBT
identification among Gen Z at 16%; Gallup poll finds sharp rise since Gen X. Generation Z may want to rebrand
itself as Generation LGBT. A new Gallup poll highlights a 15.9% LGBT identification rate among Gen Z adults between the
ages of 18 and 23 in 2020, along with a widening gap between other generations going back to the 1940s. "The vast
majority of Generation Z adults who identify as LGBT — 72% — say they are bisexual," Gallup reported
Wednesday [2/24/2021].
New
York State Employees Required to Have 'Gender Identity Toolkit' Training. All New York State employees are
required to have training in the state's new "Gender Identity Toolkit," a resource to ensure the special rights of
transgender and other individuals who are not comfortable with their biological sex are acknowledged and put into
practice. According to the Governor's Office of Employee Relations website, the Gender Identity Toolkit will introduce
state employees to "key terms, language, concepts, and laws related to fostering a respectful workplace and appropriate
customer service to individuals who are transgender or gender non-conforming (TGNC).
Biden's
a New Ball Game: Army Chaplain is Under Investigation After Calling Transgenders 'Mentally Unfit' to Serve. As noted
by The Daily Wire, a religious cleric serving in the United States Army is getting probed for something he recently posted to Facebook.
According to NBC News, Maj. Andrew Calvert went onto a military newspaper's social media page to ask a question. His query:
"How is rejecting reality (biology) not evidence that a person is mentally unfit (ill), and thus making that person unqualified to serve?"
It's
Not Just 'Gender Dysphoria.' It's Now 'Rapid Onset Marxism.' The U.S. House of Representatives passed a new
rules package that explicitly strikes "gendered language" from the official House rules. The rules prohibit the use of
terms that designate the gender of familial relationships — father, mother, son, daughter, brother, sister, and so
on — and replace them with gender-neutral terms. Commentator Tammy Bruce, a radio and Fox Nation host, says
this move Jan. 4 is "obscenely Marxist" because it "deconstructs what it means to be female." She went on to say: "It
reduces all of us, it eliminates the value of the individual and our uniqueness as individuals." The goal of social
policing of our language is thought control, which epitomizes the Marxist agenda.
The
Value-Laden Language of the Left. [Scroll down] Now in particular, as the left continues to usurp the
political narrative and silence alternative voices, it is felicitous to observe how progressive policies apply with God-like
authority to sexuality and other realms. First, for example, the term "sexual preference" has been erased.
Indeed, at her Senate confirmation hearing, our newest (at least in the short term) Supreme Court justice quickly apologized
for daring to even use the term. The woke, and thus only acceptable, phrase is "sexual orientation." That is because,
to assume that one chooses his sexual identity is to presuppose that the person actually has a choice in the matter.
Having a choice means accepting responsibility for how that choice is exercised.
Biden's
LGBT Agenda: Pedophilia Coming Down the Pike? The Biden regime's January 20 executive order demanding
"equal treatment under the law, no matter [one's] gender identity or sexual orientation" is just the first salvo in the next
wave pushing "LGBT rights." The order will soon be backed by federal law, via the pending LGBT "Equality Act." While
many are now warning that the order will destroy girls' and women's sports, its impact is much broader. The enforcers
will be given free rein to transform society in unimaginable ways, given the undefined terms in the order and pending
law: gender identity, sexual orientation, LGBT. Why has there been no pushback on embedding these
sexual-radical concepts in our legal system? Establishment conservatives have shied away from addressing this issue and
denigrate anyone who dares to confront it.
We
Were Laughed Out of Court because the Courts Have Become Ridiculous. [Scroll down] The public supported a
basic truth: the sexual relationship between a man and a woman is unlike any other relationship, especially because this
one uniquely produces new human life; hence, society needs to recognize the sacred nature of such a bond rather than muddle
it with analogies to same-sex relationships, which are in many ways hard to differentiate from friendships. [...] The
strongest and most resonant argument for marriage was the crudest one I saw in comments all across the internet: the anus
is not a sexual organ, and two people of the same sex can't create a baby unless they buy one or steal one from other people.
The next strongest argument is equally basic: Have you seen the photos from gay pride parades? Is that a good
environment for raising kids? These points are harsh, but people understand them immediately, and liberals do not
have effective counterpoints against them because they're so obvious.
On
Sex and Gender, The New England Journal of Medicine Has Abandoned Its Scientific Mission. Two years ago,
"Titania McGrath," whose satirical Twitter account regularly skewers the ideological excesses of social-justice culture,
suggested that "we should remove biological sex from birth certificates altogether to prevent any more mistakes." The joke
(obvious to those who follow the culture wars closely, but perhaps obscure to those who don't) was directed at gender
activists who insist that male and female designations "assigned at birth" are misleading (and even dangerous), since they
may misrepresent a person's true "gender identity" — that internally felt soul-like quality that supposedly
transcends such superficial physical indicia as gonads and genitalia. But the line between satire and sincerity has
become blurry on this issue.
'Club
kid' killer Michael Alig dies of heroin overdose inside his Manhattan home Christmas morning. Notorious Manhattan
club promoter Michael Alig, who spent 17 years in prison for murdering and dismembering his drug dealer, died of an
apparent heroin overdose Friday [12/25/2020], officials said. Michael Alig, 54, lost consciousness inside his Washington Heights
apartment on W. 159th St. by his boyfriend about 3 a.m., officials said. The ex-con was doing heroin shortly
before he died, his boyfriend told police.
Judge
Rules Wisconsin Transgender Prisoner Who Raped His Own Daughter Should Undergo Taxpayer-funded Sex Reassignment
Surgery. A federal judge has ruled a Wisconsin man who is imprisoned for raping his own daughter is entitled to
receive a sex change operation at the taxpayer's expense. U.S. District Judge James Peterson ruled Mark Allen Campbell
is entitled to sex change surgery and should be moved to a women's prison while he awaits his transition. Campbell was
sentenced to 34 years in jail in 2007 after he pled guilty to first-degree sexual assault against his daughter; he now
identifies as a transgender woman under the name Nicole Rose Campbell. Campbell began requesting sex reassignment
surgery in 2013, the Daily Wire reports, and has been receiving female hormones and transgender counseling, paid for by
Wisconsin taxpayers, while at Racine Correctional Institute, a men's prison. To accommodate Campbell's gender
dysphoria, Racine has allowed Campbell to dress in women's clothing and wear makeup.
Here's
More Proof That the Transgender Movement Is Insane and Extremely Dangerous. Earlier this month, the United
Kingdom's Supreme Court ruled that children under the age of 16 are "unlikely to be able to give informed consent" concerning
puberty blockers. "There will be enormous difficulties in a child under 16 understanding and weighing up this
information and deciding whether to consent to the use of puberty-blocking medication," read the ruling. "It is highly
unlikely that a child aged 13 or under would be competent to give consent to the administration of puberty blockers. It
is doubtful that a child aged 14 or 15 could understand and weigh the long-term risks and consequences of the administration
of puberty blockers." The concept that young children are not mature enough to make such life-changing decisions is
hardly new. There are minimum age requirements for being legally allowed to drive, purchase cigarettes or alcohol, or
to be legally competent to enter into a contract.
Federal
Court Strikes Down Ohio Prohibition on Birth Certificate Changes for Transgender People. Until today
[12/16/2020], Ohio had the ignominious distinction of being one of only two states that prohibited transgender people from
changing their genders on their birth certificates. (Tennessee is the other.) But with a ruling today by the U.S.
District Court in Southern Ohio, that prohibition is no more. The ruling in the Ray v. McCloud lawsuit,
originally filed more than two years ago on behalf of plaintiffs Stacie Ray, Basil Argento, Ashley Breda and Jane Doe, means
that Ohio's blanket prohibition on trans people correcting their birth certificates is unconstitutional.
'Go and sin no more' could land you
in jail. Christians in the United Kingdom and Canada are being warned that foundational religious beliefs and
practices soon could be criminalized under laws banning the counseling of people seeking help with unwanted sexual
attraction. Activists want to ban not only the so-called "conversion therapy," they also want to prevent people from
criticizing their lifestyle. And that includes a veto on the preaching and the practice of churches regarding
sexuality, according to the U.K.'s Christian Institute.

'Don't
let a man in a dress rule us': Road sign mocks Pa. health secretary amid COVID crackdowns. A message board
entering the Erie County town of Waterford prompted a social-media stir this week by mocking Dr. Rachel Levine, Pennsylvania's
secretary of health. The sign along U.S. Highway 19 read "don't let a man in a dress rule us Waterford!" on Wednesday
[12/9/2020]. Dr. Levine, who has been the public face of Pennsylvania's controversial COVID-19 related lockdowns, was
born Richard Levine and fathered two children, but transitioned to female in 2011.
Why
Do Progressives No Longer Defend Free Expression? A half-century ago, progressives used to push limitless free
expression, blasting conservatives for their allegedly blinkered traditionalism. They boasted of obliterating
once-normal boundaries in art, music, and literature to allow nudity, profanity, sexuality, and anti-American
boilerplate. Now? The left is Victorian — increasingly puritanical, regressive, and
hypersensitive. Even totalitarian censorship and book-burning have weirdly become part of their by-any-means-necessary
methods. University of California at Berkeley professor Grace Lavery was so outraged by author Abigail Shrier's latest
book, "Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters," that she went well beyond the usual calls to
ban the book. Lavery advocated burning Shrier's book.
Norway
to incarcerate those who say things offensive to transgenders. Without even holding a formal vote, Norway's
parliament "outlawed hate speech against transgender people" last week, including in private conversations. Those
found guilty will face fines and up to a year in jail for private remarks and three years for public remarks. Don't
laugh, things aren't much better in the U.K., Australia, Canada or even the U.S. If only conservatives could be granted
such coddling protection! A substantial swath of the mainstream media and entertainment
industry would be in jail. Right next to the Big Tech bigwigs and university professors. And across the bare hall
from the Hollywood stars and starlets. Late night "talk show" hosts would be shelling out fines like a berserk
Pez dispenser.
A
1991 study may have found the root cause of transgenderism. If you're on the left, you believe that the
traditional idea that humans come in two sexes (male and female) is not only outdated but evil. Instead, leftism
insists that human sex identification is an infinitely malleable matter of personal choice, untethered to genetics.
Conservatives respond that it's not a matter of choice. Instead, people who claim to be transgendered almost invariably
have complex mental issues, often stemming from their upbringing. A recently recovered 1991 study supports conservatives.
Norway
Criminalizes Hate Speech Against Transgender People ... In Private Homes or Conversations. We have previously
discussed the alarming rollback on free speech rights in the West, particularly in Europe. The move to criminalize
speech has led to an insatiable appetite for new limitations and broader prosecutions. Norway is an example of this
headlong plunge into speech controls and crimes in the West. This week the legislature adopted (without even a vote) a
new criminal law that punishes people for saying anything deemed hate speech toward transgender people in their own home or
private conversations. Minister of Justice and Public Security Monica Maeland declared victory because speech
regulation must be "adapted to the practical situations that arise." The "practical situation" includes speaking to
your own spouse or family.
Target
Removes Book Critical Of Trans Agenda After Customer Complains Online; Book Shoots To Top 100 On Amazon. Target
said Thursday night that they have removed a book critical of the transgender agenda after a customer complained about the
book being "transphobic," an accusation strongly denounced by author Abigail Shrier. The censorship, as is usually the
case, ironically led to a spike in the purchasing of "Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our
Daughters" on other platforms. "Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention," Target's online help desk
responded to the complaint. "We have removed this book from our assortment." The user who made the complaint has
now set their account to private.
Newly
Discovered Letter Shows Endocrine Society Urged Experimenting On Trans Children. In his recent townhall,
presidential candidate Joe Biden endorsed experimental, irreversible medical interventions for gender-confused
eight-year-olds. His reflexive and indeed casual approval of medical child abuse illustrates how successful the
transgender industry, including politicized elements of the medical profession, has been in obscuring the issues and
normalizing the abnormal. A recently uncovered letter shows how the Endocrine Society (ES) in particular has deftly
misrepresented scientific reality to advance the agenda of that lucrative and increasingly powerful industry.
Endocrinologists are experts in the function of hormones and therefore play a critical role in the industry's
"gender-affirming" medical model. Because sex is determined by chromosomes, imprinted during development, and
unchangeable by hormones after the fact, actual sex change is impossible.
The Editor says...
One sure way to normalize the abnormal is to refer to a sex change procedure as "gender-affirming." Exactly the opposite is true.
Friends
mourn man hacked to death with machete during Bronx Grindr date. A man hacked to death by a machete-wielding
Grindr date was a loyal, trusting friend — and excited about meeting his new love interest, devastated loved ones
said Monday [10/19/2020]. It took three weeks for authorities to determine it was Carlos "Carlitos" Algenis Jimenez,
26, who was killed in a Bronx apartment last month after hooking up with a man he met on the popular dating app.
Sources said the victim and the suspect, Juan Alonso, 50, got into a fight about what kind of sex to have.
Buttigieg
claims Amy Coney Barrett confirmation puts his marriage in danger. Former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete
Buttigieg, who now serves on Joe Biden's transition team, suggested Sunday [10/18/2020] that President Trump's supreme court
nominee, Amy Coney Barrett, poses a threat to his marriage. "There are all kinds of interesting questions about the
future of the American judiciary, but right now, as we speak, the preexisting condition coverage of millions of Americans
might depend on what is about to happen in the Senate with regard to this justice," Buttigieg told "Fox News Sunday" host
Chris Wallace.
The Editor says...
Step 1: Normalize perversion. Step 2: Normalize homosexual marriage.
Step 3: Portray yourself as a victim if anyone challenges Step 1 or Step 2.
Orwell Rears His Head.
On Monday of last week, to use the phrase "sexual preference" was completely acceptable. As recently as last month,
multiple gay rights publications used the phrase. Leon Panetta had used the phrase in the past couple of years.
Joe Biden has used the phrase this year. Merriam-Webster considered "sexual preference" to be just another version of
"sexual orientation." But then Tuesday happened. On Tuesday, the village idiot from Hawaii masquerading as a
senator, Mazie Hirono, attacked Amy Coney Barrett for using "sexual preference" instead of "sexual orientation." By
Tuesday evening, the employees of Merriam-Webster had changed the phrase in their online dictionary to note it was
offensive. No, I am not making that up. The dictionary company literally changed it after Barrett's exchange with
Hirono. Steve Krakauer, a former CNN producer who now produces Megyn Kelly's podcast, documented the change on his
social media feed. Gay rights publications such as The Advocate went on the attack as well. In just 18 days,
"sexual preference" went from acceptable to a hate crime.

Biden: 8-Year-Olds Should Be Allowed to Decide They're Transgender. Former Vice President Joe Biden said during
a town hall hosted by ABC News on Thursday night [10/15/2020] that eight-year-olds should be allowed to decide that they are
transgender.
Debunking
the Fourth Circuit's Insane Transgender Ruling in Grimm v. Gloucester. On August 26, 2020 the U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit issued its decision in the case of Gavin Grimm v. Gloucester County School
Board. The decision declared that rights of the plaintiff Gavin Grimm, a female student who considers herself male,
were violated because the school board denied Grimm the right to access the boys' restroom and refused to amend school
records to call her "male" after a court had ordered the state of Virginia to issue a new birth certificate indicating Grimm
as a male. In justifying its opinion, the Court made many findings of fact (whether self-determined or sourced from
friends of the court or the lower court) that not only defy common sense, but also are patently false or materially
inaccurate.
Guilty. Trial to
Follow. Here's the Left's real problem with "sexual preference," it implies your sexuality is a choice
(something the Left is all in favor of when talking women's "reproductive rights") and if you have a "choice" that implies
you cannot be a victim. And we all know how the Left loves, and needs, its victims. Ergo: "sexual orientation" —
not a "choice." My question: where does this leave all of those "gender fluid" people who seem to make "sexual preference"
orientation choices on a daily basis?
Oreo
Dips Itself Into Social Change, Makes a Special Cookie Celebrating the Parents of Lesbians and Gays. Not long
ago, business was a very dry arena. If a company made a calculator, that's all you would ever know. These days,
it seems corporations have calculated the benefit of messaging. Therefore, they're investing in the social and
political realm. Case in point: Oreo has teamed with PFLAG — Parents and Friends of Lesbians And
Gays — to release a special edition of its delicious, milk-ready mainstays. And not only that —
the confection colossus has produced a short film about a mom and her lesbian daughter. As for the new multi-colored
treats, don't look for 'em in-store — they can only be won online.

Biden Foundation
Promoted Transgenderism For 18-Month-Old Babies. The 2018 initiative, called the "As You Are" campaign,
centered on a map tracking LGBTQ "acceptance stories" across the country. It was spearheaded by Biden's eponymous
foundation, which has been described as "further[ing] the work the Bidens did over eight years in the Obama administration
and cement[ing] the former vice president's more than four decade legacy in public life." Of the nearly 500 individuals
highlighted, many were children under the age of 18, with one account even chronicling a "gender nonconforming"
18-month-old. One mother submitted her story to the Biden Foundation about her six-year-old transgender child and saw
it promoted by the group, despite declaring her daughter "gender nonconforming" since 18-months-old.
Kroger
sued for allegedly firing workers who refused to wear rainbow symbol. Kroger, one of the country's largest
supermarket chains, is being sued in federal court after two former employees claimed they were wrongfully terminated for
refusing to wear an apron with a rainbow symbol. The ex-employees, who identify as Christian, cited religious
objections in their refusal to wear what they believed was an "endorsement of the LGBTQ community," according to the
lawsuit. The complaint was filed Monday by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on behalf of Brenda Lawson, 72,
and Trudy Rickerd, 57, who both worked at a Kroger store in Conway, Arkansas, for several years before being fired last
spring The two women were allegedly disciplined and eventually terminated after they refused to wear new aprons issued last
April that featured an embroidered rainbow heart on the top left portion of the bib.
Poll:
Californians oppose gender mutilation and sterilization bill. Sixty-four percent of California voters do not
want Gov. Gavin Newsom to sign a bill to pay for transgender drugs and surgeries known to sterilize minors and adults,
according to a new poll. The survey, conducted by Spry Strategies in conjunction with the Women's Liberation Front,
shows that conservative Christians and radical feminists, who have joined forces to oppose AB 2218, are more in step with
California voters than state legislators. The controversial bill passed the Assembly 54-10 and the Senate 28-9 late
last month, and now sits on Newsom's desk awaiting his decision.
California
Legislature Passes Bill Reducing Penalties for Oral, Anal Sex with Willing Children. California lawmakers
passed a bill Monday that would reduce penalties for adults who have oral or anal sex with a willing minor child if the sex
offender is within ten years of the age of the victim. The bill now heads to the desk of Gov. Gavin Newsom (D).
California
legislature passes bill easing sex offender registry requirements for sodomy with minors. California
legislators passed a law Monday easing sex offender registry rules for those who commit sodomy or other sex acts with minors
in order to end "discrimination against LGBTQ young people on the sex offender registry." The bill, which now heads to
Gov. Gavin Newsom's desk, would "exempt from mandatory registration under the act a person convicted of certain offenses
involving minors if the person is not more than 10 years older than the minor and if that offense is the only one requiring
the person to register," according to the bill.
After
Correction, Study That Claimed Mutilating Trans People Helps Them Now Finds The Opposite. What do we know about
the effects of hormone and surgical treatments for gender-dysphoric patients? Many people might assume they are highly
effective because they are widely presented as the obvious proper medical and compassionate course for such patients.
The prevailing narrative is that parents and patient advocates who disapprove of surgeries or hormone treatments are both
evil and dangerous. The best research, however, indicates just the opposite. The latest major study on the topic,
published in the American Journal of Psychiatry, answers the question this way: "Despite professional recommendations
to consider gender-affirming medical interventions for transgender individuals who experience gender incongruence, the effect
of such interventions on long-term health is largely unknown."
Twenty (Uncomfortable)
Questions. How is it "science" to say that if a man thinks he is a woman, then he is a woman?
Doesn't that deny biological reality? Apparently, we're supposed to "believe in science," but not biology. Would
you encourage an anorexic to keep losing weight and tell them they look great? No, you would tell him to get
help. Yet we are encouraging people to mutilate themselves.
Broke California
wants to fund youth sterilizations and sex changes. The California Senate will consider legislation soon to use
taxpayer funds to pay for hormone blockers and sex change operations for minors. The bill, after passing the Senate
Health Committee by a 7-1 vote last week, now moves to the Senate Appropriation Committee and then to the floor of the Senate
before the end of the month. As noted by numerous health experts, the use of cross-sex hormones and surgeries for
adolescents would permanently destroy their reproductive systems, a fact which AB2218 backers seem inclined to ignore.
Why is today's
Left so anti-science? Like almost all other animals, humans exist in two distinct sexes: male and female.
At the genetic level, the distinction is crystal clear. Males have an X and a Y chromosome, while females have two
X's. (There are instances of an extra X or Y but they are exceedingly rare.) Generally speaking, these different
genotypes express in different phenotypes, such as different morphology, microbiology, procreation, hormones and
temperament. Nearly all real scientists agree with this. But the left now tells us that there are 64
"genders." They define "gender" as something different from "sex" in order to get around that inconvenient chromosome
obstacle, while deceitfully using the two terms interchangeably when helpful to advance their agenda. Such as enabling
men with trendy sexual proclivities to destroy legitimate women's sport competition. The left's position here is not a
scientific one, though they couch it as that. It's a political one. They don't argue with scientists who disagree
with their political position on this issue, because they have no real science argument. Instead they cancel those
scientists.
A
psychiatric journal made a big mistake about transgender surgery. A year ago, a massive study of transgender
surgeries in Sweden claimed that people with body dysphoria who had the surgery were psychologically more healthy than those
who did not have surgery. The same journal that published that finding just retracted it. Over the years, in
large part because I lived in the San Francisco Bay Area, I met several people who had taken hormones and had surgery to turn
themselves into a rough and stereotypical version of someone who was the opposite of their biological sex.
Consistently, they were the most unhappy people I had ever met. That was a small and unscientific sample, but it was
pretty clear to me that fulfilling their desire to present to the world as the opposite of their biological sex did nothing
to make the people I met happy.
The Bus Never Stops.
First they told us that homosexuality was normal and that there was no need for anyone to be afraid of the ramifications of
treating them as normal, even though only about 2 percent of the population are homosexual — giving new meaning to
the word "normal." About 1 percent of babies are born with a heart defect, but we don't call that normal. Doubters
said that treating as normal people as different as homosexuals would have consequences. First thing — or maybe
second thing — they would want to get "married" and have their "marriages" treated as normal. [...] What's
next? What's wrong, really, with having children watch pornography? It's everywhere, and there's essentially no
effort to eliminate it. How do we know that? Because there is no serious effort by Republicans to stop it.
And if children can watch it, why shouldn't they do it? What's the effective difference? And what's wrong,
really, with sex with children, so long as there's an adult in the room? "Don't be absurd," you say. But you said
that years ago when homosexuality was normalized. And again when homosexual marriage was normalized. Now when
polyamorous relationships are normalized, are you saying that we have reached the terminus: that the bus stops
here? Please. The bus never stops. Unless someone stops it.
The
Trans Cult. A few years ago, three things happened in the course of a single week in my life. First, a
friend told me about a letter her daughter, then 11, had received from her closest summer-camp friend. The girl had
some big news: She was now a boy. Then, another mother told me she and her daughter were sitting at a synagogue
lunch when they were joined by a man who "presented" as a woman. And I received a lengthy email from my daughter's swim
coach at the local YWCA — a man whose missives had never included anything besides practice times and requests for
volunteer timers — explaining that someone on the team had come out as transgender; the coach attached an entire
Washington Post article explaining how we should treat the child and the proper pronouns we should use to refer to "them."
Convicted
child molester gets taxpayer-funded sex-change surgery while in prison. An Idaho inmate currently incarcerated
for sexually assaulting a child has received taxpayer-funded "sex-reassignment" surgery after suing the state for it.
Yep, really. Adree Edmo, a 32-year-old man who identifies as a woman, has been imprisoned since 2012 for "sexually
assaulting a sleeping 15-year-old boy." He filed suit against the state of Idaho in 2017, claiming that the state was
violating his Eighth Amendment right against cruel and unusual punishment by denying him free (taxpayer-funded) transgender
surgery. Really. It went all the way to the Supreme Court.
The
Supreme Court Imperils Parents' Right to Pass Their Values on to Children. The Supreme Court's recent decision
in Bostock v. Clayton, which ruled that the Title VII prohibition on sex discrimination in employment extends to
discrimination based on sexual orientation and transgender status, is likely to have more widespread implications than many
people realize. [...] The current culture already makes it difficult for parents to teach their children that, for instance,
maleness and femaleness are grounded on objective biological reality rather than subjective self-perceptions, or that the
purpose of human sexuality is not ultimately pleasure or self-expression, but to unite a man and woman in marriage and enable
them to form a family. And whatever one's beliefs about these issues, parents, not the state, should be the ones to
decide what their children are taught about these controversial and sensitive matters.
The
Implosion of the Left's Language Circus. Since 2010, three slogans dominated the left, all based on the
English-speaking world's turn to coercive liberalism: "It Gets Better," "Me Too," and "Black Lives Matter." Each is in
itself an Orwellian delusion. Together, the three undermine each other. "It gets better" is Orwellian. Most
youths who begin a homosexual or transgender lifestyle will see their living conditions worsen. As they get older and
adult demands weigh on them, they suffer from more health problems and an unsupportive LGBT community. LGBT networks
reward them for joining by pulling them into needlessly stressful debates and unstable relationships. The slogan was
aimed at young people, whose age afforded them the support of patient schools, families, and communities, which will no
longer see them as babes to care for when they become adults and realize how cold and harsh the LGBT scene really is.
The campaign commissioned aging LGBTs to speak via internet to impressionable teens and pre-teens, in essence imposing gross
assumptions on them and lying to them about how happy gay and trans adults felt.
Baptist pastor
'shocked' after being fired for transgender reveal. A pastor in Canada was fired for "theological reasons," her
church said, after coming out as transgender in an online sermon. [Pop-up ad] The Rev. Junia "June" Joplin,
who is originally from North Carolina, surprised some in June with the announcement at Lorne Park Baptist Church in
Mississauga, Ontario, during a service held online due to the coronavirus lockdown. [Superfluous cross-plug link to an
unrelated article.] "I want you to hear me when I tell you that I'm not just supposed to be a pastor. I'm
supposed to be a woman," Joplin said. "My friends, my family, my name is Junia. You can call me June. I'm a
transgender woman and my pronouns are she and her." [Video clip] More than half of the 111-member congregation
voted to terminate the contract after Joplin came out, a journey she began in 2018 by telling her spouse and sons.

Nine politicians can stop
teen sterilizations in California, but will they? The fate of a bill to fund transgender treatments that
permanently destroy the reproductive systems of minors is now in the hands of nine California State Senators.
AB 2218, authored by Assemblyman Miguel Santiago (D) Los Angeles with principal co-author Senator Scott Wiener (D) San
Francisco, will be heard before the nine members Senate Health Committee when they return to the capitol at the end of the
month. The bill has already made its way through the Democrat-dominated state Assembly with little debate and approved
largely along party lines. It establishes an "LGBT Transgender Wellness Fund," to provide grants to nonprofits,
hospitals, health care clinics (like Planned Parenthood), and other medical providers to pay for puberty blockers, cross-sex
hormones, and mastectomies for minors, as well as cross-sex hormones and "sex-change" operations for adults.
More
than 100 lawmakers urge the Pentagon to 'immediately' reverse Trump's transgender military ban. More than 100
lawmakers are urging the U.S. Department of Defense to immediately end the military ban on transgender troops put in place by
the Trump administration in 2019. On Wednesday [7/8/2020], Rep. Suzan DelBene, a Democrat from Washington, joined
by 116 members of Congress, signed a letter addressed to Secretary of Defense Mark Esper and Attorney General William Barr
calling to the end of the policy, which they called "an attack on transgender service members who are risking their lives to
serve our country." The move comes just weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act
of 1964 protects LGBTQ people from workplace discrimination.

Christopher Columbus statue. The petition to replace Columbus with a tribute to the Black trans activist has so far
drawn more than 86,000 signatures. The call comes at a time when statues of Columbus are being removed and opposed
across the state.

LGBTQ+
community says 'Pride is 365 days a year' ahead of 'virtual march'. It's the 50th anniversary of the first
pride march held in 1970, but because of the pandemic it will be nothing like last year's sea of more than 1 million parade
participants, marching down Fifth Avenue for close to 12 hours. This year's Pride will be a virtual march. "Pride
is 365," Marti Gould Cummings, a board member of the Ali Forney Center, told PIX11 News. "We just happen to celebrate
it on the anniversary of Stonewall, June 28 but for a virtual march there will people and performances to amplify the Black

Unsanctioned
Pride parade draws thousands in Chicago. Thousands of LGBT activists are gathering at an unsanctioned Pride
parade in Chicago. The city's parade was canceled because of fears of the spread of the coronavirus, but activists
gathered on Sunday anyway at the "Reclaim Pride March," which partnered the causes of Pride and the Black Lives Matter
movement. Alexis Abarca, an activist who attended the march, told ABC 7 that the two movements are both advocating
for an end to police brutality and racial injustice.

Supreme
Court's LGBTQ Decision Is Formula for Chaos. The U.S. Supreme Court has decided that homosexual and transgender
individuals are covered by the anti-discrimination provision, Title VII, of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Justice Neil
Gorsuch wrote in his opinion: "An employer who fires an individual for being homosexual or transgender fires that
person for traits or actions it would not have questioned in members of a different sex. Sex plays a necessary and
undisguisable role in the decision, exactly what Title VII forbids." When I read the reasoning of Gorsuch, I feel less
surprised by the chaos in our cities, and our great difficulties and challenges in enforcing the law. How indeed can we
expect sanity in enforcing our laws when such confusion exists in our nation's highest court about what our law is, and even
what our country is about?
Will
Anyone in Government Resist SCOTUS's Absurd Redefinition of 'Sex'? On June 15, the Supreme Court issued its
Bostock opinion redefining "sex" in discrimination law. Beyond the word's common biological meaning —
linked to an innate and unchangeable characteristic — the Court says "sex" can now be used to protect
homosexual behaviors and transgender delusions. By acknowledging "sexual orientation" and "gender
identity" as valid concepts (while leaving them essentially undefined), the Court has embraced sexual-radical dogma.
The absurd Bostock opinion will unleash unimaginable chaos unless there is significant push-back. The
disruptions that have followed rampant "gay rights" demands are well known, and will surely multiply. And the ruling
has given new life to transgender demands for their special "rights." While Bostock specifically addressed
employment law, commentators predict that its new definition of "sex" will be applied in any case dealing with discrimination
on the basis of "sex." There are over 100 federal laws that use that terminology.
Gorsuch
the Pharisee and Textualist Tomfoolery. The Supreme Court's recent opinion that the 1964 Civil Rights Act's
prohibition against "sex" discrimination offers protections for LGBT identity groups has raised eyebrows and ire. But
it's not surprising: The decision's author, Justice Neil Gorsuch, long ago made clear that he operates from false
premises. One of these is what's called "textualism," which is not at all the same as originalism. Conservatives
also err, in my view, in claiming that Gorsuch has "redefined 'sex.'" In reality, his ruling is instead based on a certain
rationalization. Harvard law professor Noah Feldman, while essentially applauding Gorsuch's lawyer-craft, explained it
well. "As applied to Title VII, the classic 1964 anti-discrimination law, the textualist idea is very simple," he wrote
June 15. "The law prohibits discrimination 'on the basis of sex.' To discriminate against somebody because of sexual
orientation necessarily entails discriminating on the basis of sex. After all, if you're discriminating against a man because
he is attracted to men, you would not be discriminating against him if he were a woman who is attracted to men." "The same is
true for transgender status," he continued.

Heritage will publish on YouTube, includes footage of Heyer's remarks from the original panel, with the allegedly hateful

Thousands
Dismiss Social Distancing in Brooklyn for Pro-Black Transgender Rally. On the same day that thousands of
protesters gathered around the Brooklyn Museum in New York to show their support for blacks who want to live as the opposite
sex, Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Sunday warned that customers flocking to restaurants and bars in the state could lead to
another coronavirus lockdown. "Governor Andrew Cuomo warned New Yorkers against triggering a second wave of the
coronavirus, singling out bars and restaurants in Manhattan and the Hamptons as the worst offenders among 25,000 complaints
filed to the state," Bloomberg reported. "We are not going to go back to that dark place," Cuomo said. Aerial
views posted on social media show people packed like sardines at the Brooklyn protest.
The
Supreme Court confuses mental illness with sex. On Monday [6/15/2020], the Supreme Court concluded that
homosexuality and transgenderism are covered under the Civil Rights Act of 1964. This post doesn't have enough space to
explain why, legally, that is an incorrect decision. Put simply, the Civil Rights Act does not cover sexual orientation
and was never intended to. If Congress wants to change that, it can; it is not the Supreme Court's role, though, to
make that change. This post focuses only on the fact that the Supreme Court, in Bostock v. Clayton County,
wrongly accepted the premise that transgenderism is part of the homosexuality spectrum. It is not. It is a form
of mental illness. The Supreme Court has just said that body dysmorphic disorder is protected under the Civil Rights
Act of 1964.
Supreme
Court rules LGBT workers are protected from job discrimination. The Supreme Court ruled Monday that existing
civil rights legislation protects gay, lesbian and transgender people from discrimination in employment. The court's
6-3 decision, written by Trump appointee Justice Neil Gorsuch and joined by Chief Justice John Roberts, said a provision in
the Civil Rights Act of 1964 known as Title VII that bars job discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex or
national origin also covers gay and lesbian workers. "An employer who fires an individual for being homosexual or
transgender fires that person for traits or actions it would not have questioned in members of a different sex. Sex
plays a necessary and undisguisable role in the decision, exactly what Title VII forbids," Gorsuch wrote in the opinion.
Black
Trans Lives Matter protest packs NYC same day Cuomo threatens businesses over street parties, social distancing
violations. Throwing any thoughts of social distancing out the window, thousands of protesters packed the
courtyard of the Brooklyn Museum in New York City on Sunday [6/14/2020] to support the Black Trans Lives Matter
movement. But New York businesses better not expect the same warm embrace from Democrats and their media enablers if
they dare open their doors for a haircut or a cup of coffee. When it comes to the perpetually aggrieved left taking to
the streets to protest, which has taken on a life all its own, it appears that every subset of marginalized people are to have
their moment in the sun — perhaps, a Black Lesbian Lives Matter protest will be coming to a street near you soon.

Trump
finalizes rule defining gender as a person's biological sex. The Trump administration on Friday [6/12/2020] finalized a
regulation that defines gender as a person's biological sex, reversing an Obama-era rule aimed at protecting transgender people against
sex discrimination in health care. The Health and Human Services Department regulation says essentially that "gender identity"
is not protected under federal law prohibiting sex discrimination in health care. The policy shift was long sought by religious
and social conservatives. The Obama administration's regulation defined gender as a person's internal sense of being male,
female, neither or a combination.
J.K.
Rowling defends her opposition to transgender ideology. J.K. Rowling — the multimillionaire author
known for writing the perpetually popular "Harry Potter" series of novels — penned an essay this week defending
her opposition to transgender ideology, claiming that the "deeply misogynistic and regressive" movement is harming young men
and women and making women less safe. Rowling generated significant backlash last year when she tweeted that "sex is
real," a noted rebuke of transgender ideology from a popular public figure. Transgenderism posits that men and women
can "identify" as the opposite sex if they feel strongly enough about it, a position that few in any celebrities have
challenged as aggressively and publicly as Rowling.

LGBTQ Caucus Brings Back Ban The Bible Bill With Republican Help. Last week, the Texas House LGBTQ caucus,
including founding members Reps. Mary Gonzalez, Jessica Gonzalez, Julie Johnson, and Erin Zwiener, introduced their
plan to pass a comprehensive "Ban the Bible" bill next session. While the Texas House LGBTQ Caucus has not published
language for the bill, we can all expect it is going to be a long and far-reaching government power grab and they have
revealed already that the bill would grant members of the LGBTQ community special privileges in the areas of employment,
housing, and public accommodations. As you may recall, the five-member LGBTQ Caucus pushed several pieces of
legislation during the last Texas Legislative session that sought to criminalize and penalize Christians who did not comply
with these special privileges. For example, a bill that granted special privileges in housing accommodations would have
forced women's homeless and abuse shelters to allow men to sleep and shower alongside women.

Transgender Health Secretary Snaps over Reporter Calling Her 'Sir': 'It's Really Insulting'. Pennsylvania Health Secretary

KDKA Radio talk show host Marty Griffin reportedly referred to Levine, who was born Richard Levine, as "sir" multiple times during the call.

support them transitioning away from their birth gender. She made the comment while having former NBA star Dwayne Wade and actress
Gabrielle Union on her show to talk about their son Zion, who is a child transitioning to being a girl. His parents now refer to
him as "Zaya," and Wade has become an ambassador of sorts for this kind of child abuse. Degeneres made the despicable comment
while talking with Union about how great her parenting is for harboring their son's gender-bending delusions.
Biden:
Gender confirmation surgery is 'medically necessary'. Joe Biden said sex-change surgery is medically necessary
for transgender people while pushing for changes that would require insurers to cover such procedures. The former vice
president and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee made the assertion during a Wednesday virtual event with the Human Rights
Campaign. He received a question on how he would ensure gay and transgender people have access to affordable healthcare.
The Editor says...
The barbaric act known as "gender confirmation surgery" is actually an attempt at gender denial and alteration, not
confirmation. At the conclusion of such a procedure, chromosomes have not changed.
Hungary
prepares to end legal recognition of trans people. Hungary's rightwing government looks likely to push through
legislation that will end the legal recognition of trans people by defining gender as "biological sex based on primary sex
characteristics and chromosomes" and thus making it impossible for people to legally change their gender. Trans people
and rights activists say the law, which has been introduced into parliament as attention is focused on the coronavirus
pandemic, will increase discrimination and intolerance towards trans people. Many will try to leave the country, while
those who do not have that chance will face daily humiliations.

Reflections
on a Century of Junk Science. In early 1987, the widely believed Oprah Winfrey began her show as follows:
["]Hello everybody. AIDS has both sexes running scared. Research studies now project that one in
five — listen to me, hard to believe — one in five heterosexuals could be dead from AIDS at the end of
the next three years. That's by 1990. One in five. It is no longer just a gay disease. Believe
me.["] Oprah's audience had no reason to disbelieve. In 1987, the scare was everywhere. Virtually all
media sources were repeating the same rough message. "Now No One Is Safe from Aids," proclaimed the cover of Life.
"The disease of them is suddenly the disease of us," added U.S. News & World Report. The popular magazine covers
affirmed just who that us was — white, middle class, heterosexual mid-Americans. Even the more sober
and credible media fed the flames. "AIDS has infiltrated the heterosexual population," the Washington Post
cautioned its readers in November 1987, "and a meteoric rise in reported cases of HIV infection is expected because of false
assumptions that AIDS is a homosexual disease."

argued during a congressional hearing this week that the rights of transgender individuals in federally funded homeless shelters
do not override the rights of abused women. The secretary of Housing and Urban Development was speaking during a
congressional hearing Wednesday [3/4/2020], where Democratic Illinois Rep. Mike Quigley challenged HUD's stance that
federally funded homeless shelters have the right to install bathrooms and sleep areas based on biological sex.
Woman
[who was] 'Rushed' Into Gender Reassignment as a Teen [is] Suing NHS. A woman given gender reassignment therapy
as a teen is suing the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust for having "rushed" her into the treatment. "I wanted to go onto
the medical pathway as soon as possible, I was very eager and I was very reluctant about speaking to anyone who would
possibly get in the way of that," Keira Bell explained to Sky News. But after being "rushed" into gender reassignment
after "roughly three" short sessions with "no real investigation" into any other underlying mental health problems, she came
to realise she was not a boy "born in the wrong body" after all, and that her gender identity crisis had only been a "coping
mechanism" for deeper issues. "I just realised that it hadn't worked after a few years," she recalled.
Democrats
Use Migrants to Smuggle the Transgender Ideology into U.S. Law. Democrat legislators want President Donald
Trump's Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to comply with pro-transgender rules set by President Barack Obama in 2015.
The legislators are pushing the pro-transgender policies despite Trump's policy of reestablishing the legal recognition of
fundamental biological differences between men and women Obama sought to abolish. For example, Obama's pro-transgender
policy sought to place migrant men who say they are "transgender women" in detention facilities with women. Obama's
rules would also have provided foreign migrants with expensive hormones that help them change their sexual appearance, even
when migrants could not afford those medications in their home countries.
The
Wages of Promiscuous Sex Is Death. A new report by British researchers shows a strong association between the
number of one's lifetime sexual partners and one's risk of developing cancer and other serious diseases. According to a
new report published in BMJ Sexual & Reproductive Health, women with 10 or more lifetime sexual partners were 91% more likely
to develop cancer compared to those with zero to one partner, while men with that number of partners were 64% more likely to
contract cancer. The researchers based their work on the English Longitudinal Study of Aging, a detailed study of 5,722
men and women. Along with higher cancer rates, they found that women with the high number (10 or more) of sexual
partners were far more likely to suffer from a long-term debilitating illnesses.
Ocasio-Cortez
Guests on RuPaul Show: 'I Pledge Allegiance to the Drag'. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) will serve
as a guest judge on the reality TV show RuPaul's Drag Race, according to a trailer published Thursday [2/13/2020]. The
drag queen contest series, which comes back to VH1 this month, carries a semi-political theme this year and features several
political puns. Ru Paul will preside over the "Ru-nited States of America," the video ad says. In the video,
RuPaul also announces that "the time has come for the first drag queen president."
Biologists
propose radical concept that there are only two genders/sexes. I know a couple of people who are going to be in
trouble with the Woke Science Community. Colin M. Wright, an evolutionary biologist at Penn State, and Emma N. Hilton,
a developmental biologist at the University of Manchester, have collaborated on an article published in the Wall Street Journal this
week. They put forth the revolutionary and highly controversial theory that human beings are born as one of two distinct sexes,
male and female. And no amount of philosophical meandering is going to change the incontrovertible medical fact that sex is
binary and does not exist on some sort of "spectrum."
UK
Judge: Police acted like the gestapo when they went to man's workplace over a tweet. A former police
officer named Harry Miller posted some tweets about trans rights last year which prompted a visit from the police after one
anonymous person complained. Today, Miller won a partial court victory in the case with the judge suggesting police had
gone too far by showing up at Miller's office and, in effect, threatening him into silence: [...] Now that they have lost
this case, it's the police who need to check their thinking.
Teen
With Aspergers Placed on House Arrest, Fined for Asking Trans Police Officer's Gender. A teenager with
Aspergers was fined nearly $800 and be placed under a strict 3-month curfew for asking an apparently transgender police
support officer, "is it a boy or is it a girl?" Declan Armstrong (19) is said to have offended the officer, Connor Freel,
who was reportedly left "upset and embarrassed" by the question.
The Editor says...
If a transvestite goes anywhere in public, he or she should be embarrassed.
It is the transvestite who should be fined, not the sane bystanders.
Trump's
Presidency Reveals 7 Undeniable Facts About The Swamp. [#6] Identity politics and the legislation of social
justice policies have stifled the rights of free speech and freedom of association throughout the democratic nations of the
western world. And they materialized as the result of language manipulation. Remember when gender used to
represent male or female? Yet, in that example, the word "identity" was added after "gender" thus opening a verifiable
Pandora's Box of Orwellian Newspeak. Today in formerly free societies, men and women are forced to navigate Genderqueer
and Non-Binary Identities, consisting of an entirely new lexicon including neo-designations such as Agender,
Cisgender, Ceterosexual, Ceteroromantic, Demigender, Enby, and Epicene; just to
name a few. Political Correctness is a means of thought control in the bubble, designed to protect imaginary
victims from the societal sins of xenophobia, sexism, homophobism, and racism.
Project
Veritas: Warren staffer irked by focus on 'identity politics,' says 'this is why we lose'. It's not easy being a straight
male working on Sen. Elizabeth Warren's presidential campaign in Iowa, judging from the latest Project Veritas undercover sting. In
a hidden-camera video released Monday, a man identified as Iowa field organizer Angel Alicea for the Massachusetts senator complained about
the office's emphasis on "identity politics" and trans-inclusive pronouns, adding that he was told by another staffer, "You're the only
straight [person] here."
Upper
East Side man strangled, mutilated by younger man he met on dating app: cops. The babyfaced killer from
Oklahoma who murdered an Upper East Side man 40 years his senior — after meeting him on a dating app —
used a knife or a sharp ceramic object to mutilate his victim's head, a Manhattan prosecutor alleged at his arraignment early
Saturday [2/1/2020]. The suspect, 24-year-old Alex Scott, had met 64-year-old Kenneth Savinski on Wednesday, the same
day he allegedly killed him in a "vicious, ferocious, crime scene attack," Assistant District Attorney Shira Arnow said.
Florida considering a
ban on sex-change surgeries for children; Democrats opposed. TheBlaze has learned that a key committee in the
Florida legislature has agreed to take up a bill proposed by a conservative lawmaker that, if passed, would outlaw injecting
children with puberty blockers and performing sex-change surgeries on them in the state. Members of the Health Quality
Subcommittee will debate Republican Rep. Anthony Sabatini's "Vulnerable Child Protection Act" on Monday.
Sabatini's legislation would make it a crime for doctors to perform surgeries on children that "sterilize" children, alter
their genitals, or inject them with controversial "puberty blockers." Under the new law, medical professionals who
perform said procedures could face felony charges, fines, and imprisonment.
NY
state park to be renamed after transgender advocate. A New York state park in Brooklyn will be named after
LGBTQ activist Marsha P. Johnson. Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced the renaming of East River State Park during the
Human Rights Campaign's greater New York gala on Saturday [2/1/2020]. The Democratic governor said the park renaming
shows New York "is the progressive capital of the nation."
Democrats
Don't Care About American Lives. Democrats' vision for the perfect America includes transforming her into a
wild, wild west of sex, a society in which every perversion is legalized and citizens are forced to celebrate. A memo
exposed Obama's DoJ plan to legalize 12 perversions including pedophilia and bestiality. Colleges are laying the
groundwork by scolding us about our bigoted intolerance of pedophiles. Democrats are sexualizing children beginning in
pre-k with a mandatory LGBTQ curriculum. I Am Jazz, a book about a boy whose parents began his so-called sex change at
age three, is required reading. Once you realize that Democrats only care about furthering their agenda and American
lives do-not- matter, you understand their behavior. U.S. students are sick with strange diseases due to untested
illegal alien children being sent to public schools. Transsexuals who regret having sex change surgery are blocked
from media.
Long
Island's largest LGBT nonprofit scrutinized by state. Long Island's largest LGBT nonprofit is being scrutinized
by the state over the way it handles the millions of taxpayer dollars it receives each year, The [New York] Post has
learned. A series of questionable bookkeeping moves by the LGBT Network of Long Island — which oversees LI's
Pride Parade and is headed by prominent gay activist David Kilmnick and hubby Robert Vitelli — prompted reviews by
the state Department of Health and Office of the State Comptroller, according to the agencies and documents obtained by The
Post. The Network — which doles out everything from condoms to substance-abuse services — is now
reining in its hiring and spending, according to employees.
Utah
bans "conversion therapy" for minor children who may have no idea what 'LGBTQ' even is. Utah has become the
first truly conservative state to implement regulations banning "conversion therapy" for "LGBTQ" children after it received
backing from the influential Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons). As reported by the UK's Daily Mail,
Utah's ban of the "discredited practice" makes it the 19th state to do so and, because of its deep conservative leanings,
paves the way for other right-leaning states to do so as well, according to advocates. "It's really given people a lot
of hope," sand Shannon Minter, the legal director for the National Center for Lesbian Rights. Her group is hoping that
other purple or red states will now follow suit. Already lawmakers in Virginia, Texas and Kentucky are considering
banning the practice.
'Stories
of Pain and Misery' Moved Lawmaker to Take Action on Childhood Gender Transition. State Rep. Fred Deutsch
didn't set out to be a trailblazer. He just wanted to protect kids. But if his South Dakota bill stops children
from being mutilated, then all of the nasty emails will have been worth it. At least in one state, hurting teens will
have a chance at a normal life — not the suffering so many activists are pushing them toward. When legislators
bundled up for work Jan. 22 in Pierre, some of them were on their way to make history. For the first time
in America, a state was holding a hearing on whether minors under 16 should be allowed to surgically or chemically alter
their sex.
Gay
Drag Queen Admits That Story Hour Events Expose Kids to Lifestyle of 'Nudity, Sex and Drugs'. A homosexual drag
queen is speaking out against "Drag Queen Story Hour" events, claiming it is inappropriate to expose children to the
lascivious lifestyle associated with these flamboyant cross-dressers. "What in the hell has a drag queen ever done to
make you have so much respect for them, and admire them so much?" said drag queen Kitty Demure, who operates out of San
Bernardino, CA. "Other than put on make-up and jump on the floor and writhe around and do sexual things on
stage?" "I have absolutely no idea why you would want that to influence your child. Would you want a stripper or
a porn-star to influence your child? It makes no sense at all," Demure added.
The
Billionaires Behind the LGBT Movement. Not long ago, the gay rights movement was a small group of people
struggling to follow their dispositions within a larger heterosexual culture. Gays and lesbians were underdogs, vastly
outnumbered and loosely organized, sometimes subject to discrimination and abuse. Their story was tragic, their
suffering dramatized by AIDS and Rock Hudson, Brokeback Mountain and Matthew Shepard. Today's movement, however,
looks nothing like that band of persecuted outcasts. The LGBT rights agenda — note the addition of
"T" — has become a powerful, aggressive force in American society. Its advocates stand at the top of media,
academia, the professions, and, most important, Big Business and Big Philanthropy. Consider the following case.
Jon Stryker is the grandson of Homer Stryker, an orthopedic surgeon who founded the Stryker Corporation. Based in
Kalamazoo, Michigan, the Stryker Corporation sold $13.6 billion in surgical supplies and software in 2018. Jon,
heir to the fortune, is gay. In 2000 he created the Arcus Foundation, a nonprofit serving the LGBT community, because
of his own experience coming out as homosexual.
Made
to Order Colorado Birth Certificates. Colorado has enacted legislation, effective Jan. 1, allowing adults born
in Colorado to secure a new birth certificate reflecting a self-designated gender other than as recorded on an original birth
certificate. That legislation is unwise, unethical, dangerous, and, surely to be contended by some, unlawful. [...]
Impersonation is an act of pretending to be another person for the purposes of entertainment or fraud. Criminal
impersonation includes pretending to be another individual in order to deceive others or gain some advantage, benefit, or
thing of value. Since impersonation can also include assuming a fake identity with intent to defraud another, persons
of one sex impersonating the opposite sex may be in violation of law when seeking an advantage such as access to opposite-sex
bathrooms or when surreptitiously advancing intimate relationships with unsuspecting persons who would find such a
relationship abhorrent.
Shoving
'Transgender Regret' Back in the Closet. It is a startling reaction, but LGBTQ advocates are continuing their
campaign to ostracize "transgender" people who want to return to their birth sex. Charlie Evans fits the profile of a
"former transgender" who felt shunned by LGBTQ members and was labeled a "traitor." [...] Pulling back the curtain on Evans'
regrets, and others like her, couldn't come at a worse time for the LGBTQ community. They literally can't afford to
have hundreds of "retransitioning" transsexuals come between them and their dream of getting more taxpayers to foot the bill
for sex-change procedures. Apparently "former transsexuals" fail to fit their romanticized narrative on how to achieve
"gender inclusivity". Leftist advocates can't be bothered with examining the tragic details of devastated health and
ruined lives of transsexuals, but rather must stick with their ideology foisted on the public.
Not
Pushing Back Fuels LGBT Tyranny. It blows my mind that people worldwide are having their lives destroyed and
are even thrown in jail for asserting that marriage is between one man and one woman or for stating the scientific fact that
a man cannot change into a woman. British tax expert Maya Forstarter was fired for tweeting, "Men cannot change into
women." A campaign has been launched to destroy the life of famed author J.K. Rowling for simply agreeing with
Forstarter. In Iowa, 30-year-old Adolfo Martinez was sentenced to over 16 years in prison for tearing down a LGBT flag
from a church and burning it. Fake news media would celebrate Martinez as a hero had he burned a U.S. Flag. In
their disdain for Christianity, LGBT minions at Netflix have a comedy depicting Jesus as a homosexual. 2.3 million
signed a petition protesting the comedy. I guarantee Netflix would never dare portray Mohammad as a homosexual.
When
You Read About the Transgender Nonsense, Please Remember This. One need not be a proponent of strict
fundamentalist sex/gender division to see the wisdom and moral appropriateness of celebrating sex/gender distinction.
Healthy societies embrace that binary; unhealthy ones will exacerbate it, or diminish it. We cannot outsmart the
Creator of that binary, after all. Our vain efforts to liberate ourselves from the natural laws He instituted have
never and will never result in greater human happiness, freedom, or flourishing. That needs to be, it has to be the
motivating factor for those of us who are opposed to the moral quagmire modern sexual revolutionaries are creating.
Honoring all beings made in the image of God will always begin by honoring God. Failure to do the latter will never
result in the former.
Methodist
church announces plan to split into pro- and anti-gay branches. Leaders of the United Methodist church —
America's second-largest Protestant denomination — have announced plans to split the church in two after years of
division over same-sex marriage. The plan, if approved at the church's worldwide conference in Minneapolis in May, would
divide the denomination into two branches: a traditionalist branch that opposes gay marriage and the ordination of lesbian, gay,
bisexual and transgender clergy, and a more tolerant branch that will allow same-sex marriage and LGBTQ+ clergy.
Report:
"Transgenders" More Likely to Kill Than be Killed; Overrepresented Among Pedophiles. It's fairly well known that "transgenders" have
a very high suicide rate, especially after undergoing so-called sex reassignment surgery. But barely known, and contrary to modern myth, is
that they're also more likely to commit murder than to be murdered, according to a recent report. In fact, the report finds that Made-up
Sexual Status (MUSS, or "trans") individuals are actually less likely to be homicide victims than normal people are.
Ex-Trans
Man Reverses 'Non-Binary' Sex Designation in Blow to LGBT Movement. This month, the first person to obtain a
legal "non-binary" sex designation has successfully petitioned the court originally responsible for his "non-binary" status
to order that the sex on his birth certificate be restored to "male." In documents exclusively provided to PJ Media, James
Shupe's petition described his "non-binary" designation as a "psychologically harmful legal fiction." He told PJ Media he
hopes this decision will prevent a woman currently seeking "non-binary" recognition from following the same lies. "The
charade of not being male, the legal fiction, it's over," James Shupe told PJ Media on Tuesday [12/31/2019].
The
Gay Mafia Comes to Idaho. These are the people to whom peaceful coexistence isn't enough — who need
you to agree with everything they do, and to do it smiling, even to support them while they do it. If there's a
dress code at work, they show up wearing drag to annoy you — and threaten to sue if anyone complains. They
march in parades wearing bondage gear in front of children. If you praise a man for being manly, you'll end up in H.R.
If your three-year-old son wears a dress one day, they push you to cut off his gonads. They push for Elsa to be a lesbian
and for Bert and Ernie to be gay lovers. They came up with a new pronoun yesterday, and if you don't use it perfectly today,
they'll sue you. They consider Drag Queen Story Hour the height of civilization and berate anyone who won't have sex with a
transgender (a thing known, to even the radical feminists, as rape culture). We heard that these people wanted
equality, but what they really want is to rule us. No other group in American history has ever had such privilege, or
carte blanche in general.
Good
Public-school Teachers Under Siege. [Scroll down] One of the children prefers the plural pronoun "they,"
while the other, who claims not to be a boy or a girl, prefers "zee." Seriously. After that, the two children discuss
the alleged need to "educate" their own teachers, especially substitutes, on the supposed importance of using the newly
invented pronouns that students choose for themselves. If that all sounds crazy, that's because it is. Teachers
are already finding themselves in hot water for refusing to play along with the madness. Indeed, teachers such as Peter
Vlaming at West Point High School in Virginia have already been fired from their jobs for refusing to refer to girls using
male pronouns, and vice-versa. In California, teachers say they are required to submit to the gender madness or be
fired, too.
Transgender
worker suing Nike for $1.1 million cites pronoun abuses. A transgender former Nike contractor is seeking $1.1 million
in damages from the sporting goods giant for allegedly allowing gender identity-based harassment. According to a civil
lawsuit filed this week, Nike and Mainz Brady Group, a staffing firm that hired workers for Nike, discriminated against computer
engineer Jazz Lyles, who identifies as transmasculine and prefers the pronouns they/them/their.
Iowa
man who burned LGBTQ flag sentenced to 16 years. An Iowa man who was found guilty of lighting a local church's
LGBTQ flag on fire was sentenced to more than 16 years in prison Wednesday. Adolfo Martinez, 30, was found guilty last
month of a hate crime, third-degree harassment and reckless use of fire after admitting to police in June that he stole a
pride banner hanging outside the Ames United Church of Christ and set it on fire using lighter fluid about two blocks away
outside the Dangerous Curves Gentleman's Club, The Des Moines Register reported. Story County Attorney Jessica Reynolds
said in June that the hate crime charge was added because Mr. Martinez targeted the church's property because of "what
it represents as far as sexual orientation."
Transgenders
Attack Gays and Lesbians for Refusal to Accept Them as Athletes and Same Sex Lovers. In October 2018,
biological male Rachel McKinnon took the gold at the UCI Masters Track Cycling World Championships in Los Angeles.
Afterwards, he took to Twitter to condemn as "transphobic bigots" anyone who pointed out that his "victory" consisted of a
man competing in an all-women's event. He called mandatory testosterone suppression for transgender athletes a human
rights violation. Last February, nine-time Wimbledon singles champion and lesbian Martina Navratilova caused an uproar
when she wrote that it is "insane" and "cheating" that biological men are allowed to compete in women's sports. For
stating the obvious, Navratilova was immediately expelled from the LGBTQ advocacy group Athlete Ally for alleged
"transphobia." The BBC withdrew its invitation to Fair Play for Women to discuss Navratilova's comments after public
pressure from the aforementioned McKinnon himself.
Transgender
homicide rate 'remarkably low' despite cries of 'national epidemic'. Calls to combat a purported epidemic of
killings targeting transgender people, especially women of color, are rising, even though U.S. data indicates that people who
identify as members of the opposite sex are less likely to end up as homicide victims than their non-transgender
counterparts. Kentucky State University associate professor Wilfred Reilly found that the 2017 homicide death rate for
transgender people was about 1.48 per 100,000, less than a third of the overall murder rate of about 5 per 100,000
and a fraction of the rate for men in general (6.68) or black people (18.8).
Andy Ngo
Suspended From Twitter for Stating Facts. Journalist Andy Ngo gets a lot of abuse. We saw what Antifa
thugs did to him for trying to cover their activities in Portland. The liberal Silicon Valley establishment doesn't
treat him any better. When he risked traumatizing Chelsea Clinton by exposing her to factual reality, Twitter suspended
him. Ngo's thought crime was tweeting this: "The US is one of the safest countries for trans people. The
murder rate of trans victims is actually lower than that for cis population. Also, who is behind the murders?
Mostly black men."
The
Motives Behind the False Narrative on Islam and the West. [Scroll down] Or consider how leftists/liberals/progressives,
who forever whine against any vestige of Western traditionalism, habitually make common cause with Islam — despite the latter's
truly oppressive qualities. Thus feminists denounce the Western "patriarchy" — but say nothing against the Muslim treatment
of women as chattel; homosexuals denounce Christian bakeries — but say nothing against the Muslim execution of homosexuals;
multiculturalists denounce Christians who refuse to suppress their faith to accommodate the religious sensibilities of Muslim minorities —
but say nothing against the entrenched and open Muslim persecution of Christians.
Goldman
Sachs Tells Employees: Use Transgender Pronouns to Become an 'Ally'. "Proactively share your pronouns to
foster an environment of respect and awareness (ex: "Hi, I'm Karen! My pronouns are she/hers. Welcome to

document on November 22, instructing employees to stop using pronouns which recognize the average biological, physiological,
and psychological distinctions between men and women[.]
South
Carolina State Rep Wants to Prevent Gender Reassignment for Children. A South Carolina state legislator has
prefiled a bill that would prevent people younger than 18-years-old from undergoing so-called gender transitions. The
Youth Gender Reassignment Prevention Act prefiled by Republican Rep. Stewart Jones states that "A person under the age
of eighteen years is prohibited from undergoing gender reassignment medical treatment in the State of South Carolina."
The text of the bill further explains that "Gender reassignment medical treatment" means any health care to facilitate the
transitioning of a patient's assigned gender identity to the gender identity experienced and defined by the patient."
Transgender
People Claim Gays Are 'Transphobic' For Declining Sex With Them. Gender transition can leave transgender people
in a bit of a bind about their sexual desirability. While a transgender female may look, act, and feel masculine and
exhibit male tendencies, she is just as female as any other female. If she is interested in either gay men or straight
women, she could find herself perpetually attracted to individuals who are not going to be interested in her simply because
of her vagina. The same holds true for transgender men who have retained their penises. If they are into lesbian
women or straight men, those two demographics will most likely be turned off by their body parts. This has got to be a
painful, difficult, and kind of tragic place to be. The solution? Blame transphobia.
The
"Right" to Remain Silent about Your HIV Status. Call me old-fashioned, but I think that people who have
unprotected sex with others without informing them that they're HIV-positive are downright rude. [...] Sorry, fruitcakes —
this is a situation where your legendarily fragile feelings must take a back seat to public safety. You can shoot at someone
with a loaded gun and entirely miss your target, and it will still be charged as attempted murder. Having unprotected sex with
someone and not telling them you're HIV-positive should be treated the same way.
South
Carolina lawmakers propose bill that could ban transgender teenagers from getting surgery, hormone therapy or
antidepressants. Lawmakers in South Carolina want to make it illegal for doctors to operate on or prescribe
hormones and possibly even antidepressants to transgender children and teenagers, according to a bill proposed last
week. If signed into law, the bill would make any medical efforts toward gender reassignment impossible for anyone
under 18. The legislation even aims to outlaw drugs to treat 'symptoms of clinically significant distress resulting
from gender dysphoria,' including depression or anxiety that arise from being assigned a gender at birth that doesn't match a
young person's identity.

Meet
the 'detransitioners': the women who became men - and now want to go back. 'How could I remove my healthy
breasts when I'd seen my mother lose one of hers to cancer?" asks Charlie Evans. Until recently, the science writer
from Margate identified as transgender, convinced, along with increasing numbers of young women, that she had been born in
the wrong body. After undergoing a 'social transition', for which she changed her name from Charlotte, as well as her
pronouns, her passport and driving licence, in order to live as her chosen sex, she refused to go through with the gender
reassignment operation that would give her the sexual characteristics she thought she wanted.
Chick-fil-A
to End Donations to Christian Charities after LGBT Backlash. Chick-fil-A said Monday [11/18/2019] that it has
stopped donations to several Christian organizations after receiving backlash from LGBT rights activists over the last
several weeks. The U.S. fast food chain said that as it expands, it will no longer donate to the Salvation Army, the
Paul Anderson Youth Home, and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, which opposes same-sex marriage. The company's
charity, the Chick-fil-A Foundation, has donated millions of dollars to the two organizations.
The Editor says...
Big Mistake. If you give them an inch, they will demand a mile. If you tolerate transvestites in the streets, pretty soon the
transvestites will be entertaining little kids at the public library. If you allow a man to "identify" as a woman, pretty soon
you will find him in the women's restroom. If you legitimize same-sex marriage, pretty soon you'll be forced to supply the
wedding cake for such an abomination. And if you object to any of this, you'll be called a bigot.
Conservatives
Are Now Getting Expelled From the Scientific Community Over LGBT Issues. LGBT activists have weaponized two
scientific societies to cut off a major Mormon university from their international community of scientists. The
American Geophysical Union (AGU) in Washington, D.C., and the Geological Society of America (GSA) in Colorado pulled job ads
from Brigham Young University (BYU) after facing complaints over BYU's Honor Code, which prohibits homosexual conduct among
students and staff. This is unlikely to stop with the AGU and GSA and is likely to lead to blacklisting far more
schools than just BYU. LGBT activists complained that the geological societies had listed a job posting from BYU on their
job boards. While the societies originally stood up to pressure, they eventually caved as the activists went public.
Report:
Hollywood Adds More LGBT Characters to TV, Cable, Streaming — Now 488 Total. GLAAD, an organization
that seeks to accelerate "acceptance of the LGBT community" in American culture, released its 2019 report, Where We Are on
TV, and applauded the TV and cable entertainment industries for adding more LGBT characters to their programs. "Of the
879 regular characters scheduled to appear on broadcast scripted primetime television this season, 90 (10.2 percent) are
LGBTQ," states the report. There are also some 30 recurring LGBTQ characters, making a total of 120. That's up
from last year's 113 regular and recurring LGBTQ roles.

If you haven't done so already, you should take all of the television sets out of your house and leave them at the curb for the next garbage truck.
When I got rid of my last TV in 1980, it was the programming was boring, shallow, insipid, and a waste of time. Now, almost 40 years later,
the programming is offensive, demeaning, pernicious, blasphemous, and destructive. The commercials are nearly as bad, and the so-called
"local news" is nothing but an infomercial for big government.
The
Salvation Army took on LGBTQ activists and won. A familiar sight during the holiday season is the iconic red
kettle used by The Salvation Army for donations. Volunteers stand next to the kettle and ring a bell as passersby walk
into grocery stores or retail stores. Who would protest when a British singer announced her agreement to partner with
the international charity? The perpetually outraged Twitter mob, of course. [...] The LGBTQ mob came for her.
What is the problem, you might ask? Goulding's fans bashed her by claiming The Salvation Army has an anti-LGBTQ agenda,
which is an old trope coming from the left. Like many people who live for social media approval, Goulding didn't take
the criticism well. She caved, initially, and made a demand that The Salvation Army 'very quickly make a solid,
committed pledge or donation to LGBTQ community' in order for her to carry through with her partnership with the
charity. Sounds like extortion, doesn't it?
Teachers and
Trans Students Are Clashing Over Whose Rights Come First. Aidyn Sucec remembers how much better he felt toward
the end of eighth grade when, after years of struggling with his identity, he told his family he was transgender. It
was the spring of 2017, and Aidyn's anxiety and depression began to lift as people embraced the teenager as "him." [...]
Before Aidyn, who was designated female at birth, started at Brownsburg High School in Brownsburg, Indiana that fall, his
mother, Laura Sucec, worked with school officials to make sure his new name and gender would be logged into Brownsburg's
database. She wanted to be sure teachers knew him as Aidyn and didn't use his former name — his "dead
name" — when addressing him.
The Editor says...
Someone who is female is not just "designated female at birth." Addressing a female with masculine pronouns does not change that
person into a male. Genes identify one as male or female, not clothes or school records. Confusion and misconception are
not remedied by more confusion.
American
Psychological Association Demands Using Plural Pronouns For Nonbinary Individuals. In what appears to be one of
the most remarkable examples of irony in left-wing "progress," the LGBT left is celebrating the American Psychological
Association's style guide adopting "they/them" as the official pronoun designation for nonbinary people. LGBTQ Nation
tweeted, "With this move, the APA is recognizing the existence of nonbinary people and inviting others to understand them
better." This change follows the highly publicized revelation of British singer Sam Smith changing his personal pronouns to
"they" and "them" and stating, "I hope you can see me like I see myself now." This style guide change represents a moment of
truth for the LGBT left in erasing individuality to celebrate absolute personal customization of identity.
The Editor says...
This "customization" is far from customary.
Double
Standard: Liberals Demand Conservative Justices Recuse Themselves From LGBT Cases. Last week, the liberal
group Take Back the Court sent a letter to Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Brett Kavanaugh, demanding they recuse
themselves from three cases involving LGBT issues. Alito and Kavanaugh had met with Brian Brown, president of the
National Organization for Marriage (NOM), which has filed an amicus brief in three cases involving alleged employment
discrimination against gay and transgender people. Yet liberal justices have also met with academics who had filed
amicus briefs in active Supreme Court cases.
T-Mobile
Forces its Employees to Use 'Transgender Language'. he cell phone brand T-Mobile is implementing workplace
policies that force its employees, as well as customers, to use language addressing so-called "transgender" individuals,
according to Breitbart. In a press statement issued on November 6th, the company declared that it would be
"launching new optional name badges for all retail employees that can include employees' personal pronouns." The statement
also said that "employees are encouraged to add pronouns to email addresses and kick off meetings by sharing pronouns."
GLAAD:
We Want '20% Of Series Regular Characters' To Be 'LGBTQ By 2025'. On Thursday [11/7/2019], GLAAD published its
annual "Where We Are on TV" report, which examines the number of LGBTQ characters on television. In the opening
paragraphs of the report, GLAAD President Sarah Kate Ellis states that television plays a crucial role in our culture when it
comes to "changing hearts and minds." She adds that according to a study, "less than one-quarter of Americans have a
close friend or family member who is transgender," which means many Americans "learn about trans people from what they see in
television, movies, and news."
Elizabeth
Warren: Black Trans Women Are the Backbone of Our Democracy. In case any of you are unfamiliar with this
group, Black Womxn is "an organizing collective of leaders, activists, artists, writers, and political strategists from
across the country in the fight for Black Liberation. The last presidential election laid bare what many Black women,
gender non-conforming, and non-binary, and queer folk know deeply; that this nation embraces white supremacy and its evils,
even at the expense of itself." Anyway, this organization has just given its endorsement to Sen. Elizabeth
Warren. Which is very nice for Elizabeth and certainly she has to express her gratitude for their vote of
confidence. But she took it a little too far.
Mastercard
offers transgender persons 'True Name' feature: 'Unconditional acceptance'. Mastercard says it's one step

Transgender and nonbinary Mastercard customers will no longer have to explain discrepancies between their legal name and
their "true" name. The move was applauded this week by GLAAD.
7-year-old
at center of transgender custody battle opts to attend school as a boy. James Younger, the 7-year-old at the
center of the transgender custody battle, has decided to attend school as a boy. Younger's father, Jeffrey Younger, was
blocked by a Texas judge after refusing to cooperate with the child's mother, Anne Georgulas, as she allowed the child to
transition from male to female. Georgulas claimed James Younger identified as a woman and wanted to be called Luna,
something Jeffery Younger refused to do.
The Sentence a
Doctor Cannot Say on YouTube. There is a sentence so devastating to liberal dogma that a doctor is not allowed
to speak it in a YouTube video. Michelle Cretella, executive director of the American College of Pediatricians, is the
thought criminal who had to be censored. The forbidden sentence: "See, if you want to cut off a leg or an arm,
you're mentally ill, but if you want to cut off healthy breasts or a penis, you're transgender." Dr Cretella has plenty
more to say that the liberal establishment won't like regarding just how evil it is to sacrifice children to the transgender
agenda: [Video clip]
Ex-Florida
school official who is HIV-positive gets 35 years in sex crimes case. A former Florida middle school assistant
principal who molested at least one teenager — without revealing he was HIV-positive — has been
sentenced to 35 years in federal prison. Kyle Dale Ritsema, 36, was charged with producing, distributing and possessing
child pornography for enticing a 14-year-old boy into unprotected sex five times, and is believed to have targeted other
teens "and on several occasions sexually abused them," federal prosecutors in Florida said.

Bans Daily Signal Video On Gender Transitions Over 'Hate Speech'. The Daily Signal, the Heritage Foundation's
investigative reporting, news, and commentary outlet, says that one of their videos, a YouTube testimonial from a

Daily Signal's Kate Trinko, the group's 2017 video starring Dr. Michelle Cretella, "pediatrician with many years'
experience and the executive director of the American Academy of Pediatricians," was pulled off YouTube because, in the
video, Cretella suggested that, "if you want to cut off a leg or an arm you're mentally ill, but if you want to cut off
healthy breasts or a penis, you're transgender."
Pediatric
Endocrine Society Falsely Claims Puberty Blockers Are 'Reversible'. The Pediatric Endocrine Society has
released a new statement that claims puberty blockers are a part of "gender-affirming care" for children with gender
dysphoria and are a "reversible treatment that decreases the distress of having the 'wrong' puberty." [...] The Society's
claim of reversibility may be a defensive statement in response to the increasingly vocal uprising against administering
puberty blockers to children who suffer from a sense their gender is not compatible with their biological sex.
T(y)ranny
Triumphant, Part I: Transmenstrual Cyclists. Ask yourself why trannies have become so important to the
left. It has nothing to do with votes — there aren't enough trannies in the U.S. to impact any election —
and tranny issues score terribly in swing states (even acromegalic stopped clock Bill Maher understands that there's zero electoral
advantage in pandering to trannies). It's not about money; trannies are more than twice as likely as normies to live in
poverty. It's not about energizing the Democrat base; blacks and Latinos have other, more pressing concerns. So if
it's not about votes, and it's not about money, and it's not about pleasing the faithful, what [...] is it about?
Transgender
Clinics Prescribe 'Testosterone like Candy,' Says Gay Author. Women and girls are being sucked into the sex
change industry by reckless clinics that give out "testosterone like candy," says Andrew Sullivan, the sometimes-conservative
gay activist. Sullivan's break from the transgender movement comes after he met with a group of women who have walked
away from their teenage claims of being transgender.
Female
Offenders: Perpetrators, Predators, and Pedophiles. A survey done by California Coalition against Sexual
Assault revealed that one in three lesbians admitted to being sexually assaulted by another female. The U.S. Centers
for Disease Control then completed its own national survey, and the results were surprising. Men were just as
likely to be victims of sexual assault over the course of one year and, in 79% of cases, reported a woman as the
perpetrator. The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) showed that in 58% of cases, when a woman sexually assaulted a man,
she used violence (and 41% of the time when it's a female-on-female sexual assault). The BJS also looked at rape in
U.S. prisons, and its findings were even more startling. According to BJS data, a woman is much more likely to be
sexually assaulted by another female inmate than by male staff and also more likely than men are in male prisons, shattering
the stereotype of prison rape being a male-on-male scenario. Even more disturbing is that in nearly every case of a
minor (regardless of sex) being sexually assaulted in a juvenile detention facility, the perpetrator was female.
State
Sen. Scott Dibble says he's the victim of a revenge porn scheme. Minnesota state Sen. Scott Dibble
said Friday that he is the victim of revenge porn after a former intimate partner sent explicit images to Dibble's
colleagues, a crime that comes just days after a junior congresswoman from California stepped down in a similar
situation. In his surprise statement, Dibble revealed that for the past five months he has been harassed by "a former
friend." "I was involved in a brief intimate and consensual relationship with this person," wrote Dibble,
DFL-Minneapolis.

LGBT
Activists Won't Admit Anything's Wrong With A Man Flashing Children During Drag Queen Story Hour. There is
little room for polite interpretation when the headline reads "Drag Queen Flashes Crotch to Children During 'Story Hour'
Event," as RedState reported on Oct. 29. Rather than hyperbole or an overreaction, the headline describes the event very
literally. On Oct. 18, 2019, an organization called Child Protection League Action posted a disturbing photo taken at a
Minnesota public library featuring a drag queen sitting in a chair with his legs spread open, revealing his crotch to the children
sitting in front of him. The photo was taken mid-movement, with the presenter clearly in the middle of a performance, and
looks accidental. It is unclear if nudity is involved, but the image perfectly demonstrates the concern of conservatives
and parents everywhere. Adult entertainment is not suitable for children.
Georgia
Representative's Bill Makes Treating Kids for Gender Transition a Felony. Georgia State Representative Ginny
Ehrhart is taking aim at the medical profession and its role in giving children life-altering, gender-changing treatment by
making it a felony to engage in the controversial practice. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC) reported on
the legislation, which the Cobb County lawmaker said "aims to protect children from having irreversible procedures done when
they are young."
The
Pronoun Police Are Out to Destroy Children. [Scroll down] It is highly doubtful that young people will
ever learn that hundreds of transgender people want to re-assume their sex, but the mutilation cannot be undone. Will
they ever be informed that "[a] U.S. researcher recently did a study that confirmed at least two 13-year-old girls and five
14-year-old girls have been given double mastectomies as a result of identifying as transgender"? Moreover, a review of
the research available on this topic found that "[o]nly a minority of children who experience cross-gender identification
will continue to do so into adolescence or adulthood.'" Will young people ever learn that "long term studies of people
who underwent sex reassignment [sic] surgery had death rates three times higher from all causes?"
Texas
Republicans Push Back Against Child 'Transgender' Medical Treatments. Texas lawmakers plan to make forcing
children into "transgender" medical treatments a major issue in the next legislative session in the wake of the custody
battle engulfing seven-year-old James Younger, whose mother reportedly affirms he is a transgender child named "Luna."
The Texas custody case has sparked action on the part of state Republican lawmakers who say they will consider legislation
that would ban puberty blockers for children with gender dysphoria or label a decision to "transition" a minor child as
child abuse.
Rachel
McKinnon Is a Cheat and a Bully. Rachel McKinnon — the so-called defending "world champion" of
women's track cycling — is a man. I'll repeat that so my meaning cannot be misconstrued. He is
a man. Maybe my kind-hearted reader is offended by this blunt phrasing. Why am I calling McKinnon a
man — when, perhaps for complicated reasons, he would rather be called a woman? Why don't I compromise and
call him a "trans woman," as others do? Or be polite and address him by "she/her" pronouns, like everyone else in the
media? Well, I'll tell you why, since you asked. This is precisely the well-meant, tragically naïve logic
that has enabled a structure of lies and tyranny to be erected around us, a structure that most cannot opt out of without
incurring an enormous social cost. It is a structure in which cheating and viciousness are rewarded while civility and
truth-telling are punished.
The Naked Democrat. When Katie
Hill ran for Congress in 2018, her open bisexuality was part of her campaign message. Indeed, so often did
Ms. Hill proclaim herself to be bisexual that some of her rivals suggested she was exploiting this to gain endorsements
(and money) from the LGBT organizations that exercise a powerful influence in Democratic Party politics. During the
2018 midterm campaign, when feminists and gay-rights activists were among the loudest voices of the anti-Trump mob, the
Democrats nominated lesbian or bisexual women in several key races. [...] At no point in the enthusiastic media coverage of
Ms. Hill's campaign against Republican Steve Knight in California's 25th District, however, did any reporter ask,
"Exactly what does 'bisexual' mean?" [...] The arrangement between Ms. Hill and her husband, Kenny Heslep, was
apparently what is nowadays called "polyamory," but used to be called "swinging" or "wife-swapping."
Drag
Queen at Library Drag Queen Story Time Appears to Flash Children. It would seem there's moral decay afoot in

Target
Donates $100,000 to Create More James Younger Tragedies with 'Trans' Education for Kids. It has become en vogue
for monolithic corporations to promote the LGBT agenda in recent years, and Target is among the worst culprits of this
trend. The retailer is putting $100,000 toward a front for LGBT education that aims to cultivate an entire generation
of children like James Younger. According to LifeSiteNews, Target has announced that they are giving $100,000 to GLSEN.
GLSEN is an organization that advertises itself as "the leading national education organization focused on ensuring safe and

Why
It's Probably Not A Coincidence That The Mother Transing Her 7-Year-Old Isn't Biologically Related. The story
of seven-year-old James, whom his mother has pressured to become "Luna," has been all over my newsfeed. The messy
custody battle deserves every second of our click-bait-prone attention: Jeffrey Younger, James's father, wants to keep
his son's body intact, while Anne Georgulas, James's mother, wants to allow for "treatment" that would physically and
chemically castrate him. The havoc that divorce wreaks in a child's life is mainstage in this tragic case. Most
of us children of divorce quickly learn to act one way with mom and another way with dad. We can switch to a different
set of rules, diet, family members, bedtime, screen time limits, and political convictions in that 20-minute ride from mom's
house to dad's.
Transgendering
Children is the New 'Munchhausen by Proxy' Child Abuse. Munchhausen by Proxy is a familiar and ugly behavior in
which parents, often mothers, seek attention by attributing illnesses to their children. They successfully convince
children, bystanders, sometimes even medical professionals, that their children are sick. And they do this, often, by
poisoning their children or otherwise interfering with their health. The James Younger case seems to be showing some of
the familiar symptoms of Munchhausen by Proxy.
Texas
Court Gives 7-Year-Old Boy A Reprieve From Transgender Treatments. In a closely watched Dallas, Texas, child
custody case, Judge Kim Cooks put aside the disappointing jury's verdict of Monday against the father and ruled Thursday that
Jeffrey Younger now has equal joint conservatorship with the mother, Dr. Anne Georgulas, of their twin boys. The
mother no longer has unfettered authority to manipulate her 7-year old boy into gender transition. Instead both mother
and father will share equally in medical, psychological, and other decision-making for the boys. Additionally, the
judge changed the custody terms to give Younger an equal amount of visitation time with his sons, something that had been
severely limited.
Judge
in Texas rules parents must make joint decision in gender transition case. A judge ruled on Thursday [10/24/2019] that a
7-year-old child in Texas would remain under a joint managing conservatorship of both parents — the father has been in a
desperate battle to keep the boy from undergoing a gender transition championed by the biological male's mother. The Texan
reported that Judge Kim Cooks gave the two parents, Jeff Younger, the father, and the mother, Dr. Anne Georgulas, joint
decision-making over all medical, dental and psychiatric care for their kids.
Father

joint conservatorship over their son — a decision which includes making medical decisions for him.

Surfaces of "Trans" Child From Texas Custody Battle Saying His Mother Tells Him He's a Girl. The case of James
Younger, a seven-year-old boy from Texas who was recently the central figure in a custody battle between a father trying to
protect his son from an abusive mother, has now taken a much larger spotlight on the national stage. The case revolves
around James's supposed decision to be a transgender girl. The father, Jeff Younger, maintains that James prefers to be
a boy and only seems to act as if he wants to be feminine around his mother, Anne Georgulas, and that these thoughts of
transgenderism are a direct result of his mother's influence.
The Editor says...
One can quickly and easily surmise that the mother hates men, would rather have a daughter than a son, and has put this
poor kid in the middle of a mess that was not his idea.
'Child
abuse': Texas officials investigating case of 7-year-old boy transitioning to girl in defiance of father's wishes. Republican
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said that two government departments are investigating after a jury returned a verdict against Jeffrey Younger,
who was petitioning for full custody of his son, in part to avoid his ex-wife's plan to infuse him with puberty-blocking hormones.
Abbott waded into the controversy surrounding Monday's [10/21/2019] verdict, which gave Anne Georgulas sole custody of James and his twin
brother, Jude. Georgulas, who has been telling her son he was a girl since he was 3, supports giving hormones that would block his
adolescence. She also wants the court to mandate that the boy's father call James "Luna."
The day of the witch.
The case of a 7 year old Texas boy who will begin transitioning into a girl despite his father's objections has generated
wide public interest. "A Texas jury has ruled against a father who tried to intervene and stop his seven-year-old son
from transitioning to a girl after claiming his ex-wife manipulated the child into wearing dresses and said that 'monsters
only eat boys'. Jeff Younger and his ex-wife Anne Georgulas have been involved in a lengthy and bitter feud in Dallas
as they argued in a family court over whether their son James has gender dysphoria."
Texas
[is] "investigating" mom turning 7 year old boy into a girl. When Ed Morrissey wrote about the story of
seven-year-old James Younger in Texas, the outrage among readers was immediate and palpable. That's completely
understandable, given the circumstances. A jury recently decided against his father, Jeffrey Younger, in his attempt to
gain custody of his twin sons to prevent their mother from "transitioning" James into a girl. This would be done
through a process of administering dangerous puberty-blocking drugs, female hormones and eventual chemical castration.
The story made national headlines and people were up in arms. The judge in the case has postponed the final ruling and
perhaps there is still hope for James.
Jury
Condemns 7-Year-Old Boy to Live with Woman Determined to Make Him a Girl. Yesterday [10/22/2019], a Dallas jury
decided that father Jeff Younger was not only to lose his joint custody over his 7-year-old twin boys, but that one of those
children, under the mother's care, will have his hormones suppressed and his body surgically altered to appear female.
I reached out to Kayla White, a #SaveJames supporter who flew from Illinois to Dallas last week to document the trial.
In her own words, she explains what it was like to be in that courtroom and witness the heartbreak delivered by the jury that
is absolved from the effects of its decision. She, like most of the nation, is horrified that a Texas jury gave sole
custody to Anne, a woman propositioning a court to chemically castrate a young child.
Texas
Jury Forces 7-Year-Old to Undergo Gender Transition. In Texas, a jury ruled against a father who was trying to
prevent one of his sons from undergoing a "gender transition" process, according to the Daily Wire. Eleven of
the twelve jurors ruled against Jeffrey Younger as he was trying to gain sole custody of his twin sons from his ex-wife Anne
Georgulas, who is trying to force one of the boys, James, to take puberty blockers. As a result of the ruling, the
father will be forced to agree to the boy's new "gender identity," including his female name Luna. Speaking on a
podcast after the ruling, Younger said that this constitutes "not just emotional abuse but... the most fundamental form of
sexual abuse, tampering with the sexual identity of a vulnerable boy."

homicide. 1.1 out of every 100k trans people are victims of homicide. About 20-25 trans people killed each
year. 51 Americans are struck by lightning every year." These statstics fly in the face of the popular
LGBTQWTF claims that trans people are at higher risk of violence than anyone else. It's simply not true.

Why
Sex And Gender Are Not Two Different Things. Last week, the Supreme Court took up hearings on three cases in
oral arguments that all came down to the definition of the word "sex." Does it refer to male and female, as it always
has in all cultures without the slightest question or debate? Or does it now include the ever-expanding rainbow of all
these new gender identities and sexual orientations that people can apparently be, those we are told are totally normal and
natural to human experience, but only now are recognizing and making up words for? Such silly questions have now made
it all the way the highest levels of our justice system. This is indeed concerning.
Does
the Democratic Party have a God problem? Democratic presidential debates provide an excellent opportunity for
the aspiring leaders of the party to address and embrace religious freedom for all Americans. Religious freedom should
be considered a positive fundamental American principle by both major political parties. At least one of the Democratic
presidential hopefuls — Beto O'Rourke — has stated that churches who don't support same-sex marriage should
lose their tax exempt status. Will any of the other candidates distance themselves from this unconstitutional weaponization
of the IRS? It was not so long ago at the 2016 Democrat National Convention when the attempt to add the words "God-given"
to a resolution was met with a chorus of boos from the delegates.
Political
correctness versus common sense. Not long ago, everyone understood the unchanging commonsense reality that
human beings are either male or female. Today in New York City, the rules have been changed — and failure to
keep up can have dire consequences. New York City's special 31 genders are surrounded by special legal protections.
Businesses can now be fined as much as $250,000 for refusing to address someone by his preferred pronoun. As we have seen
in the news, even in cities that have not yet have caught up with New York City in terms of imposing legal penalties, failing a
test of political correctness about genders can result in public shaming or the loss of a job. [...] The important thing to
understand is that the masters of political correctness are not done yet. They have given us a glimpse of the future they
have planned for us. If they continue to have their way, more and more will be required of us, and the penalties will
eventually go beyond mere fines and public humiliation.

Miss the Hazards of Shoving it Down Our Throats. [Scroll down] The cases before the Court involved two
employees who allegedly were fired for being gay (the facts are in dispute) and a funeral parlor employee formerly known as
Anthony Stephens who was terminated after returning from a two-week vacation as a woman named Aimee. The employees sued
under Title VII, claiming that its ban on sex discrimination must be read also to ban discrimination based on sexual
orientation or gender identity — even though these aren't mentioned in the text of the law, even though, as
plaintiffs concede, this obviously wasn't intended by Congress in 1964, and even though Congress has since then repeatedly
declined to amend the statute in this fashion. In other words, the plaintiffs seek to turn Title VII into a
national gay and transgender rights ordinance by judicial fiat.

Activists Outside Supreme Court: 'Trans Women Are Women'. While the Supreme Court heard arguments on Tuesday
[10/8/2019] about whether sex discrimination, as codified in the 1964 Civil Rights Act, also applies to sexually fluid
people — intersex, transgender — activists protested outside the court proclaiming that sex is not
based on biology. LGBT activists yelled, "trans women are women" and had several speakers lecture on gender
diversity. On the other side, the conservative group Concerned Women of America pressed that changing the meaning of
"sex" in the Civil Rights Act "would greatly undermine the women's movement." They held signs that read, "Sex is
not Gender."

U.K.
Court Decision Affirms Transgenderism Is A Religion Of Complete Self-Worship. Britain has a new state
religion. In theory, Christianity, in the form of the Church of England, is the established faith of old Blighty.
In practice, a new creed has taken its place, and it is eager to punish nonbelievers. Consider the case of David
Mackereth, an English doctor whose Christian faith has been officially declared impermissible. Mackereth was fired for
refusing to "'refer to a man six foot tall with a beard' as 'she.'" A judge upheld his firing, declaring that "belief in
Genesis 1:27, lack of belief in transgenderism, and conscientious objection to transgenderism in our judgment are
incompatible with human dignity and conflict with the fundamental rights of others, specifically here, transgender individuals."
This ruling is part of a new religious establishment, complete with penal laws.

Gorsuch, Tuesday must have been an interesting day in the restrooms at the U.S. Supreme Court. "There are transgender

was in the court to represent a biological male who decided in 2013 that he "identified" as a female — and who
then fought a family-owned Michigan-based funeral home all the way to the Supreme Court because it fired him as a funeral
director when he indicated that he intended to start dressing as a female at work.

I
Spent a Year as a Trans Man. Doctors Failed Me at Every Turn. I can't wrap my head around all that I've
done to myself in the last two years, much less the "help" that some health care professionals have done to me. Two
years ago, I was a healthy, beautiful girl heading toward high school graduation. Before long, I turned into an
overweight, pre-diabetic nightmare of a transgender man. I won't place the full blame on health care providers, because
I should have known better. But they sure helped me do a lot of harm to myself — and they made a hefty
buck doing it.
Warren:
Taxpayers must fund sex reassignment surgery. "Everyone should be able to access high-quality, affordable,
gender-affirming health care, but the Trump administration is trying to roll back important protections for trans Americans,"
Warren tweeted Tuesday. "Help fight back by leaving a comment for HHS in protest." With former President Barack
Obama's Affordable Care Act — also known as his signature "Obamacare" plan that unconstitutionally forces
Americans to pay for a service they don't want, including abortions for others — being scaled back under President
Donald Trump's administration, Warren is determined to recover all the losses for the LGBT community while adding new
privileges (dubbed as "rights").

Excuse me for stating the obvious, but a sex change operation is not "gender-affirming." It is exactly the opposite.
Biblical
Genesis 'Incompatible With Human Dignity,' British Court Says. A British court recently ruled against
Dr. David Mackereth, a disability assessor who was fired from the United Kingdom's Department for Work and Pensions
(DWP) last year for refusing to use transgender pronouns. [...] Dr. Mackereth then hired the Christian Legal Centre
(CLC) to represent him in a lawsuit filed against the DWP for religious discrimination. An employment tribunal ruled
that the DWP was within its rights to terminate Mackereth. The ruling declared: "Belief in Genesis 1:27, lack of
belief in transgenderism and conscientious objection to transgenderism in our judgement are incompatible with human dignity
and conflict with the fundamental rights of others, specifically here, transgender individuals." The panel also categorized
the bible as "mere opinion." Belief in the Bible is "incompatible with human dignity?" Belief in Genesis is
"incompatible with human dignity?" Really? Where does the DWP and the employment tribunal think human dignity comes
from? From whence does it originate? In Whose image are we created?

haven't made her any better. "Ruby" is now de-transitioning to fully embrace her female body and instead work on her
mental issues.
'Hundreds'
of Transgenders Want to Return to [Their] Biological Sex, 'Shunned' as 'Traitors'. "Hundreds" of people who
believed they were transgender want to return to their birth sex, according to the founder of Britain's new Detransition
Advocacy Network. 28-year-old Charlie Evans, who lived as a male for almost ten years after transitioning in her teens,
told Sky News that she had been contacted by "hundreds" of trans people who, like her, came to regret their decision.
"I'm in communication with 19 and 20-year-olds who have had full gender reassignment surgery who wish they hadn't, and their
dysphoria hasn't been relieved, they don't feel better for it," she told the broadcaster.
UK
Court Rules Biblical Belief in Two Sexes 'Incompatible with Human Dignity'. A British employment tribunal has
ruled that a Christian doctor's biblical understanding of sexuality and lack of belief in transgenderism is "incompatible
with human dignity." After being fired from his job in 2018 for refusing to use pronouns that do not correspond to a
person's biological sex, disability assessor Dr David Mackereth filed a complaint against the Department of Work and
Pensions (DWP) for harassment and discrimination under the Equality Act.
Minnesota
Attorney General Keith Ellison just declared war on religious freedom and free speech. When the 8th Circuit
Court of Appeals ruled last month that Minnesota could not force wedding videographers Carl and Angel Larsen to create videos
that violate their religious beliefs, the Larsens thought their three-year court battle was over. But it appears it's
just beginning. Minnesota's attorney general, Keith Ellison, vowed to fight the court's decision and squash
discriminatory speech in all its forms. In an op-ed for the Minnesota Star Tribune this week, Ellison accused the
Larsens of hiding behind their religious beliefs in an attempt to get away with LGBT discrimination. "Business owners'
free speech and beliefs are already fully protected under the First Amendment. What they want is a license to
discriminate against LGBTQ folks," Ellison wrote. "People have the right to believe whatever they want to
believe. What they don't have is the right to deny you the same service they're offering to everyone else.
No Minnesotan should be afraid that might happen to them."
Disney
confirms gay couple in 'Star Wars Resistance,' Emmy-nominated children's series. Disney producers say it's
"safe to say" that its animated children's series "Star Wars Resistance" has an openly gay couple. Executive producers
Athena Portillo, Justin Ridge, and Brandon Auman told fans this week that they are thrilled with the decision to make
characters Orka and Flix "an item." "They're absolutely a gay couple and we're proud of that," Mr. Ridge said
during a Coffee With Kenobi podcast, the UK Guardian reported Monday [9/30/2019]. Disney's decision comes less than six
months after the PBS kids series "Arthur" made a similar move.
Future
Belongs to Those Who Oppose Drag Queen Story Hours. Common sense dictates that these events that corrupt youth
be canceled. Before our days, no one could ever have thought that we would have decayed to the point that drag queens
would be reading to our three-year-olds. However, we have reached that point of absurdity. The maximizers of
liberty have decreed that all must be permitted even though an overwhelming majority inside the community does not desire
these lewd performances. In a democratic society, where the people are supposed to rule, how does this angry majority
defend themselves against the Drag Queen Story Hours and similar things that happen in their communities? There appears
to be no answer.
Getting Real
About Gender Dysphoria. There is no known single cause of the disorder. In the largest study of adult
transexual identical twins, in only 20 percent of the cases did both twins trans-identify. That indicates a cause other
than DNA or prenatal hormones. Recent dramatic increases in the disorder indicate that new social factors are involved
in causing this disorder. [...] The good news is that the majority of cases of gender dysphoria need no medical treatment to
resolve the disorder. They are cured by the natural onset of puberty. The lowest recorded number I have seen
anywhere place the number of children who desist, or have the disorder resolved by puberty, is 50 percent. The most
common numbers of cases that resolve are 90 percent. As one therapist noted, the body usually gets the final vote.
12
deaths from vaping, 6,300 deaths from transgender puberty blocker drug? There's a heckuva lot of press coverage
hysteria over the dangers of vaping, with the deaths of 12 young people cited as reason to harass the companies that produce
vaping products, if not legislatively ban the practice altogether. [...] A Google search of vaping deaths shows 256,000,000
stories. The tobacco lobby, the left and the mainstream media, all of which want to ban the practice, are having a
field day. Just one problem. Based on the death stats for another topical issue, transgenderism, it's possible
there's a death count that could be higher. According to the Daily Wire: ["]More than 6,300 adults have
died from reactions to a drug that is used as a puberty blocker in gender-confused children, Food & Drug Administration data
shows.["] [...] Buried in the Daily Wire's report is an important detail about the use of these drugs: They
aren't actually approved for children, but they are often used on them anyway.
Satanic
drag queens are after your children. Satanist Drag Queens are after the children of a small suburb of Austin,
Texas and they will do anything to destroy people who stand in their way. Two Christian Cedar Park City Council
members, Tim Kelly and Dorian Chavez, decided to take a stand against a Drag Queen Story Hour (DQSH) hosted at the Leander
Public Library. As a result of their decision to peacefully pray in protest of a pedophilic and misogynistic story
hour, they have been harassed, threatened, doxxed, and a petition is circulating to have them removed from the city
council. The local Satanic church and witch coven are actively casting spells and hexes on good Christian men who made
a stand for the dignity and safety of women and children. They are holding Black Masses in the city park in order to
intimidate anyone who dares to speak out against them.
No,
Betsy DeVos's Trip to a Catholic Elementary School Is Not a Scandal. Betsy DeVos had the unfortunate privilege
of watching the process behind the law of merited impossibility begin to play out last week, as that which we were told would
"never happen" — the trans-rights movement would never call for schools of all stripes to endorse its
precepts — has happened. And the "bigots," if the media are to be believed, indeed deserve it. The
education secretary took part in a round-table discussion at Harrisburg Catholic Elementary School, which CNN called a
"school that subscribes to an anti-trans student policy."

John
Hopkins Psychiatrist: 'Gender Confusions Are Mostly Driven by Psychological and Psychosocial Problems'.
Dr. Paul R. McHugh, the Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University and former
psychiatrist-in-chief for Johns Hopkins Hospital, who has studied transgendered people for 40 years, believes that patients
suffering gender dysphoria need psychological care — not gender reassignment treatment. "I think their mental
problems, often depression, discouragement are the things that need treatment," Dr. McHugh, who has argued that it is a
scientific fact that "transgendered men do not become women, nor do transgendered women become men," told The College Fix
in an interview published Tuesday [9/17/2019].
Does
LGBTQ Cultural Supremacy Enable High-Risk Behavior? [Scroll down] The link is to an article by Martha
Waggoner about the robbery and murder on 6/5/19 of a 23-year-old man named Avery Scurlock during a late-night hookup with a
stranger. [...] Ms. Waggoner's article illustrates two tenets of LGBTQ cultural supremacy. One tenet is that
tragedy befalling LGBTQ people and their families is more important and pitiable than tragedy befalling non-LGBTQ people and
families. The ascendancy of this tenet has drained away compassion from the American character, especially compassion
for children. The other tenet promotes moral exceptionalism, in effect a distinctly lower moral standard for sexuality
minorities than for the majority. It says that aberrant behavior such as public cross-dressing, exaggerated public
expression of sexuality, glamorizing LGBTQ lifestylism to children, and even transgenerational sexual abuse are affirmative
freedoms for LGBTQ people but offensive or even criminal in non-LGBTQ people.
Transgender
Surgery Is the Lobotomy of the 21st Century. Psychology is a "science" that studies human behavior but is
itself morally bankrupt. That is, psychology is unable to scientifically define normality. It can't.
"Normal" depends on what the society (through "norms") or the patient views as morally correct. This limitation of
psychological study is apparent when addressing transgenderism, until recently labeled a mental illness ("gender dysphoria")
by psychology. Modern textbooks on transgender (and other paraphilic) disorders observe that they arise from "adverse
childhood experiences" (ACEs): [...] Drug addiction also is linked directly to ACEs. Is the "cure" for the disease of
addiction found in affirmation or in "correction"? In encouraging more heroin abuse or in helping people into recovery?
We must ask this question of transgenderism with the utmost compassion and introspection. If the behavior is "normal,"
there is no "condition" to address.
How
Oregon Built A Transgender Medical-Industrial Complex On Junk Science. As a group of suburban Portland
psychiatric nurses sat for training in late 2016, they had no idea they were witnessing a paradigm shift in public health
policy. They simply wanted to know what to do about a sudden upsurge in young psychiatric patients who believed
themselves to be in the wrong body. They had turned to a colleague from Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) for
help. The reply was astonishing: The children's claims should be taken at face value, and the children should be
referred to OHSU, or like institutions, for a "Dutch Protocol" of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones. Further, the
nurses should expect such referrals to comprise 3 percent of the children in their care.
Trans
privilege: Liberal media sugarcoats the story of a transgender employee harassing a conservative customer.
Guess what happens when an employee randomly harasses a customer and throws them out of the store without cause? The
employee gets fired, that's what. And everyone, or at least everyone sensible, agrees that they deserve it. Unless,
of course, that employee is transgender. Then, as intersectionality demands, special rules apply. The progressive
and LGBT media cover the incident in a way that implies the trans employee's actions were righteous, so long as the person they
targeted was a conservative. Or at least, that's how NBC News and the Hill bizarrely decided to spin the story.
SCOTUS
to Hear 3 LGBTQ Cases, Determine if Sex Should Include Sex Orientation in Title VII. When the Congress passed
the 1964 Civil Rights Act it was principally concerned about undoing racial discrimination against African Americans; to a
lesser extent, it was aimed at providing equal protection for women. Title VII bans discrimination on the basis of
race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. LGBT activists have long argued that the category of sex should include
sexual orientation. Oral arguments for three related cases will be heard next month by the U.S. Supreme Court.
One case, Altitude Express v. Zarda, involves a skydiving instructor who was fired when a customer found out
he was a homosexual. The USCCB is not involved in this case. R.G. & G.R. Harris Funeral
Homes v. EEOC and Aimee Stephens, involves a male funeral home director who was fired when he said he was going to
dress like a woman while working at a Christian funeral home. Bostock v. Clayton County turns on a decision
to fire a child welfare services coordinator when the employer learned he was a homosexual.
BBC
Tells Schoolchildren There Are 'Over 100' Genders. The British Broadcasting Company (BBC) tells primary
schoolchildren that there are over 100 genders as part of its "Teach" video series, which has some concerned parents and
observers up in arms. "You know, there are so many gender identities," declares the head teacher in response to child's
question. "We know that we have got male and female, but there are over 100, if not more, gender identities now."
The Editor says...
There may be a thousand "gender identities," but there have never been more than two actual genders.
Bill
would require gender 'X' option on all state documents. Advocates for a gender "X" designation on state documentation say
making people chose male or female is akin to making them lie, while opponents argue that a person's sex is a biological fact.
"If you look at your Massachusetts driver's license, it lists 'sex,' not 'gender,'" Andrew Beckwith of Massachusetts Family Institute
told the Herald. "The concept of 'gender identity' is based on internal feelings, but sex is binary (male or female) and grounded
in biology, and we believe that a state ID should reflect that objective fact." A bill that would require an "X" option on
all state documents that ask for gender identification, including driver's licenses, birth certificates and voter registration,
went before the Joint Committee on State Administration and Regulatory Oversight on Tuesday [9/10/2019].
Lessons
Learned from the Drew Brees-Focus on the Family Ordeal. New Orleans Saints Quarterback Drew Brees recently
recorded a promotional video for Bring Your Bible to School Day, a project of Focus on the Family. It was posted to
YouTube on August 28th. [Video clip] Predictably, the media pilloried him. Left-wing activists quickly
wrote blog articles accusing the future Hall of Famer of being complicit in the spreading of hatred.
Open
Letter to the Gender-Confused Dude in the Beard and Lipstick: My Kid Is Going to Stare. We don't
subscribe to the current false notion that gender identity is fluid or vast. There are two genders; male and
female. Your chromosomes determine your sex. Whatever mental gymnastics are going on inside the minds of people
who want to believe otherwise are none of my business. However, I will never lie to my child about biology or what
their religion teaches them.
LGBT
Activists: Drew Brees Promoting The Bible Is Homophobic. Is being an openly Christian person so deeply
stigmatized as to be viewed as deathblow to your career and social standing in America today? From the media response
to NFL star Drew Brees' message to his young fans on being proud of and sharing their faith, this may not be a far-fetched
question. Brees released a short video encouraging young people to share their faith by bringing their Bibles to school
on October 3, 2019. The event is an annual celebration designed to encourage personal freedom, religious freedom,
and religious pride, and is sponsored by Focus on the Family, a conservative Christian advocacy organization.
Gay
Media Praise Pope Francis' Pick of Pro-LGBT+ Bishop as Cardinal. PinkNews, a popular online news source for the
global LGBT+ community, praised one of Pope Francis' new appointments for cardinal, Archbishop Matteo Zuppi of Bologna,
Italy, stating that the Pope had "named a pro-LGBT+ bishop as cardinal" and that "LGBT+ advocates are celebrating" the
selection. On Sept. 1, Pope Francis announced that he was appointing 13 new clerics to the rank of cardinal, which
means they will be able to vote for the next Pope when the time arrives. Such appointments usually indicate the
direction the Pope wants the Church to follow.
From Sussex,
England, to New England, Gender Activists Are Losing. Though there is no reason to think that those who drafted
the Civil Rights Act of 1964 understood sex to be anything other than anatomical, Harris Funeral Homes vs. EEOC,
which relates to discrimination in employment under Title VII, is a far more complex and nuanced legal argument than Selina
Soule's case, which relates to discrimination in education under Title IX. Indeed, in addition to defining "sex," the
Supreme Court will need to consider what the law says about sex stereotypes. [...] Really, though. Who are we to feel sorry
for? The gender-confused man who wanted to come to work in a dress? Or the traditionally minded family business whose
owners didn't want to risk upsetting the grieving families they serve?
LGBT
Activists Seek to Destroy Christianity. Quarterback Drew Brees came under brutal attack last week for having
the audacity to appear in a video encouraging Christian students to bring Bibles to school. The pretext for the attack
was that he supported a project by Focus on the Family, a Christian organization that believes in the Bible, to include the
biblical concept of marriage and sexuality. Note that Brees did not say or do anything that could be even remotely
construed as being anti-LGBT. In fact, he has previously appeared in anti-bullying ads supporting that community. But
his guilt was twofold: it is the guilt of association liberals love to use to attack what they hate and the even
greater guilt of asking children to read the Bible, a book that many in this community despise. In his critics' view,
arguing against bullying LGBT members is good, but so is actually bullying Christians.
CNN
to Host LGBTQ Democratic Presidential Town Hall. CNN and the Human Rights Campaign Foundation have partnered to
host the next Democratic presidential town hall, focused on LGBTQ issues. CNN host Don Lemon made the announcement
after the seven hour-long Democratic presidential climate town hall on Wednesday [9/4/2019]. "CNN is partnering with
the Human Rights Campaign Foundation for our next series of presidential town halls on issues that are important to the
lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer community," Lemon told viewers.
Death of the 'Gay Gene'.
A new study involving hundreds of thousands of participants finds that homosexual behavior is about one-third
genetic — and that many genes are involved, each having only a tiny effect. [...] This is a breakthrough, but it
won't surprise anyone who's been paying attention to developments in genetics. The one-third estimate is consistent
with earlier, simpler studies on twins. And while making some sense out of humanity's zillions of DNA bits is an
impressive feat, countless previous studies have used these same methods to analyze other traits from schizophrenia to
educational attainment — always with the upshot that lots of genes, each with a small effect, were at work.
If you're still captivated by the idea of a single, all-powerful "gay gene," or for that matter an all-powerful gene for any
behavioral trait, please drop it.
If
Anyone Can Be A Woman, Then No One Is a Woman. The transgender movement is before the Supreme Court of the
United States, seeking a redefinition of the term "sex" under Title VII. The case is R.G. & G.R. Harris
Funeral Homes Inc. v. EEOC. The funeral home company was sued by the EEOC after they fired a funeral director,
Anthony Stephens / Aimee Stephens. The company's employees, upon commencement of employment, "agree to follow a
professional, sex-specific dress code," their lawyers explain. The dress code is considerate of the delicate needs of
grieving families. After about six years of employment as a male funeral director, Stephens informed the company that
he is now going to live as a female named Aimee and dress as a female at work. The company carefully considered the
impact this would have on their clientele and how Stephens sharing a bathroom with grieving widows would cause them further
discomfort. The company asked Stephens to continue dressing like a man and to use men's bathroom facilities while at
work, something he agreed to do when he accepted the terms of employment as a male. Stephens declined to do so
and filed a complaint with the EEOC, which then sued the funeral home company for discrimination under Title VII.
Joel
Schumacher: 'Double-Digit Thousands' of Sexual Partners Within LGBT Community is 'Not Unusual'. Movie director
Joel Schumaker made a disgusting revelation in an interview published last week when he admitted that he has had sexual
intercourse with thousands of men throughout his life. The 79-year-old Schumaker, who has been a fixture within
Hollywood for a great many decades, claims that his number is not at all uncommon among the LGBT movement, where extreme
sexual degeneracy and promiscuity is the norm. "It would be in the double-digit thousands, but that is not unusual,"
Schumaker said when he was asked about his number of sexual partners by Vulture magazine. "It's not [amazing] for a gay
male, because it's available."
Gays
And Orthodoxy, Again. [Scroll down] You all know where I stand on issues of Christianity and sexuality,
both homo- and hetero-. I fully affirm the teaching of Scripture and tradition, without any ifs, ands, or buts. In many
American churches — Orthodox and otherwise — the greater pastoral problem is that pastors, lay leaders,
and parents are too afraid to proclaim, explain, and defend that teaching at all!
Huge
transgender case will be heard by Supreme Court in October. The nub of the case is as follows: Aimee
Stephens worked for over five years as a funeral director at the R.G and G.R. Harris Funeral Homes. Stephens is a male
but in 2013 claimed he is a woman and started surgeries to make himself look like a woman the next year. When Stephens
informed the funeral home owner Thomas Rost about this, he fired Stephens. Rost tried to work out an amicable
separation, including a severance package, but Stephens refused.
'Straight
Pride' parade in Boston draws protests. A "Straight Pride" parade in downtown Boston has attracted
counterprotesters and a heavy police presence. A large number of counterprotesters taunted marchers and chanted:
"Alt right, get off our streets, no justice, no peace." Counterprotesters outnumbered the parade participants, CNN
affiliate WCVB reported.
Rejection
of Moral Absolutes Plagues the Modern Left. Recently, the GOP candidate in Louisiana's governor's race, Ralph
Abraham, made headlines — headlines! — because he ran a 30-second ad that included the phrase
"as a doctor, I can assure you, there are only two genders." They were so aghast at MSNBC that host Chris Jansing
declared that Abraham's comments were "incendiary." According to NewsBusters, Jansing's guest — because the
Left must have its "experts" explain to us why there are not only two genders — went even farther and said that to
declare that there are only two genders is now "despicable" and "un-American." In other words, a statement that, just a
few years ago, the vast majority of us would've considered so obvious that it was patronizing is now "incendiary" and "despicable."
Don't
tell me your pronouns — I can guess! There are now sixtyish new pronoun sets, just as we are told
there are sixtyish new genders. I do not know what genders "zie/zim/zir" or "ey/em/eir" denote. These words sound
vaguely Yiddish to me — though they lack the Yiddish language's quirky charm. The new pronouns are always
uttered with a certain peevish militancy that precludes them having charm of any kind.
Here's
What People Who Used To Be Transgender Are Telling The Supreme Court. [Scroll down] Toward the end of
[Walt] Heyer's story, the brief says, "For more than ten years Mr. Heyer has informally mentored and assisted scores of
persons identifying as transgender who regret changing their appearance to that of the opposite sex. He encourages
those who contact him who have gender dysphoria to seek psychological and psychiatric assessment for other disorders that are
also present, which is the case in a majority of those who desire to identify as persons of the opposite sex." These
claims fly in the face of what many on the left, including the transgender person on the other side of this particular
Supreme Court case, say. To make matters worse, the media have also attacked former transgender people and ridiculed
their stories as unreal. Almost every single person in the brief said they stopped being transgender with the help of
therapy. It didn't just help them heal, but also revealed that deeper emotional traumas were often the cause of their
gender dysphoria and the reason they chose transgenderism in the first place. All of the people claim that those who
proposed or helped them transition often (unknowingly) created more pain.
Satanic
Temple: 'More Than 50% of Our Membership is LGBTQ'. In an interview with the British magazine Attitude, Lucien
Greaves, the co-founder of The Satanic Temple in the United States, says that "more than 50% of our membership is LGBTQ," and
that is a "conservative estimate." Attitude is a best-selling gay magazine, founded in 1994. The Satanic
Temple was founded in 2013 and it promotes a secular humanist agenda. The Temple, based in Salem, Mass., denies that
there is an actual Satan and it claims that it does not worship the Devil.
The Editor says...
The Satanists deny the existence of Satan. But lying is one of the most obvious things you would expect a Satanist
to do. If there's no Satan, what would be the purpose of naming their meeting place "The Satanic Temple?"
'No
gay gene' says major study, but genetics does influence sexual behaviour. There is no such thing as a single
"gay gene" researchers have said, but genetics — along with environmental factors — can influence a
person's sexual preferences. The largest ever study of its kind examined data and DNA information of about 500,000
people and found there were thousands of genetic variants linked to same-sex sexual behaviour, most of the them having a
minor impact. The researchers said non-genetic factors, including upbringing, personality, and nurture, had far more
influence on a person's choice of sexual partner.
There
Is No 'Gay Gene,' Comprehensive Scientific Study Finds. Recent polls have shown that most Americans believe
that homosexuals are "born that way" rather than become gay as the result of environmental factors. In fact,
perpetuating the belief that sexual orientation is innate has been crucial to the gay rights movement. According to the
most recent Gallup Poll on the subject, 88 percent of people who believe homosexuals are "born that way" support the legality
of same-sex marriage, while only 39 percent of those who believe homosexuality is the result of environmental factors support
the legality of same-sex marriage. So, what happens when science proves that homosexuals aren't "born that way"?
Perhaps we'll find out.
The 'Gay Gene' Is
a Total Myth, Massive Study Concludes. No individual gene alone makes a person gay, lesbian or bisexual;
instead, thousands of genes likely influence sexual orientation, a massive new study of the genomes of nearly half a million
people suggests. Across human societies and in both sexes, between 2% and 10% of people report engaging in sex with a
member of the same sex, either exclusively or in addition to sex with a member of the opposite sex, the researchers
said. The biological factors that contribute to sexual orientation are largely unknown, but many scientists suspect
that genetics plays a role, given that same-sex sexual behavior appears to run in families and is seen more often in
identical twins than in fraternal twins.
Women's
Rape Shelter Gets Death Threats for Rejecting Transgender Women. The Vancouver Rape Relief and Women's Shelter

Lesbian
couple share their dilemma after one transitions to a man. A couple who met as two women have shared their
dilemma after one transitioned to become male, leaving the other struggling to cope after years of being in a same-sex
relationship. Andy Arnold and Kate Murray have been together for several years. In 2017, Andy revealed that he
identified as a man and would be transitioning. While Kate was supportive of his decision, it has since left her
struggling to cope since she is inherently homosexual and attracted to women.
Court
Rules Idaho Must Pay for Trans Sex Offender's Transition Surgery. A federal appeals court has ruled that the
state of Idaho must pay for a transgender inmates' sex reassignment surgery. Inmate Adree Edmo, a convicted sex
offender, was diagnosed with gender dysmorphia in 2012. His attorney, Deborah Ferguson, argued in January that the state
was placing him at risk of suicide if they refused to fund his surgery.
The Editor says...
Someone who can't decide if he's a man or a woman is so fundamentally confused and miserable that he's likely to be
a suicide risk no matter what.
Idaho
Governor Criticizes 'Activist Court' for Ordering Gender Surgery for Convicted Child Molester. The Ninth
Circuit Court of Appeals ruled last week that Idaho taxpayers must pay for a 31-year-old prison inmate to undergo "gender
confirmation surgery" — the opinion does not call it sex reassignment — allowing the inmate to remove
the bits that show the inmate was born a male. Mason Dean Edmo, now called Adree Edmo, pleaded guilty in 2012 to
sexually abusing a 15-year-old boy at a party. Idaho Gov. Brad Little, frustrated by the "activist court," said
his state plans to appeal once again, this time to the U.S. Supreme Court: [Video clip]
When
transgender travelers go through scanners, the next step is often invasive. [Scroll down] TSA rules
require that passengers be searched by officers of the same gender as they present. But, according to Olivia, the TSA
supervisor told her that she would have to be patted down by a male officer. After Olivia refused to be searched by a
man, the officers told her that because she was not consenting to a search, she could not board her flight and would be
escorted out of the terminal.
The Editor says...
Problems encountered by transvestites during airport searches (or anywhere else) are problems they have brought upon themselves. The
purpose of the TSA, as I understand it, is to prevent suspicious, dangerous, or unstable people from boarding airplanes. If the screener
and the prospective passenger can't even agree on the passenger's gender, or if the passenger is concealing his or her identity, that's a giant
red flag. Take the bus.
Medical
Expert: Doctors Are Actually Giving Trans Kids a Disease, It's Child Abuse. Children as young as 8 years
old are being given untested experimental drugs to verify their gender identity. Activists argue that these drugs are
essential for the health of kids who identify as transgender, and many in the medical establishment increasingly agree.
Nevertheless, a dissenting endocrinologist explained to PJ Media that these drugs actually give children a disease that could
cause heart and bone problems and stunt brain growth, and condemned the transgender "treatments" often carried out on
children as "child abuse." If a girl child identifies as a boy, she may be given so-called "puberty-blockers" to
prevent her from going through the natural human process of development. In some cases, she would then be given
testosterone in an attempt to make her become a man. The effects of these hormones are not fully known, but some
negative side effects have been widely reported.
Firestorm
over Drag Queen Event Pushes City to Change Library Policies. The Leander, Texas City Council voted 5-2 on

Two
year waiting times for NHS gender identity clinics, amid unprecented demand. Record demand for help from NHS
gender identity clinics has seen waiting times reach more than two years, an investigation has found. Services said an
"unprecedented rise in referrals" meant the time to see a specialist had doubled within a year at Britain's main centre.
The figures show more than 5,700 people waiting for a first appointment at Tavistock and Portman Foundation Trust, an all-time
high. Less than a year ago, its average waiting time was just over 12 months.

"Women, on the other hand, are increasingly realizing not only that they don't need heterosexuality, but that it also is
often the bedrock of their global oppression."

Confronts Drag Queen During Story Time, Parents Boo. In Ottawa there was a question and answer segment after
the Drag Queen's Story Time. Well, a preacher was having none of it. Drag Queen Story Time was advertised publicly
as a "magic storytime experience" for children aged 3 to 10. It was billed a private event, but it was open to
the public. Evangelical street preacher Dorre Love stormed in during the invitation for questions. "I have a
question," Love said. "What are you going to do when you stand before God and He judges every one of you here for your
sins?" Video surfaced that shows some surprised and angry parents as well as the Russian-Canadian drag performer "Adrianna

invited the public to vote on the names of women they want the city to recognize with a statue. Mother Cabrini got more
votes than any other woman (219), yet McCray's panel rejected the public's choice.

propaganda, i.e. propaganda that is designed to cause its target audience to become AGITATED, to enter a state of unease, to
become frightened, and above all to become open to absorbing more and more outrageous propaganda. The best example of
this in America is the weaponized propaganda that the American Bolsheviks have unleashed in support of sexual perversion as
part of their war on motherhood and the American family. [...] It started with the acceptance of homosexuality not only as
an unfortunate, but unavoidable and even acceptable fact of life, but as something that is to be celebrated as if it were the
highest achievement of humanity, but that was only the beginning.
This
Is What LGBTQ Organizations Are Doing to Society. Virtually every week, there seems to be another issue that
preoccupies the country. But while our attention is focused on President Donald Trump, Google, Charlottesville, Russia,
impeachment, Jeffrey Epstein, the next elections, racism, a trade war with China, the #MeToo movement or something else,
LGBTQ organizations are quietly going about their work dismantling ethical norms, making a mockery of education, ruining
innocent people's lives and destroying children's innocence.
N.J.
mayor calls LGBTQ movement 'an affront to Almighty God'. A New Jersey mayor declared this week that a new state
law requiring LGBTQ history to be taught in middle and high schools is "an affront to Almighty God." Barnegat Township
Mayor Alfonso Cirulli, a former assistant principal, said during Tuesday morning's meeting of the Township Committee that the
push for LGBTQ-inclusive education in public schools had "crossed over the line into absurdity," the Asbury Park Press
reported. Mr. Cirulli urged residents to pressure state lawmakers to reverse a measure going into effect next
year, which requires middle and high school curriculums to include lessons on the societal contributions of LGBTQ people and
people with disabilities. New Jersey is only the second state in the country after California to pass such a law.
Creepy
Video: Kids Learn To Twerk at Drag Queen Story Hour. A British drag queen was caught on camera showing
children how to twerk during a Drag Queen Story Hour event held at a UK library. In the video, drag artist Mama G is
heard asking the little ones if they know how to twerk, only to be met with complete silence. "Well, it's quite
important to the story, so I'll just give you a brief demonstration," Mama G said before hiking up his skirt and thrusting
his "bum" up and down.
"Drag"ing
Kids Into the LGBTQ Abyss. The Drag Queen Story Hour phenomenon is not new; it was launched in 2015 in San
Francisco (where else?). Men cavorting around in caked-on makeup and mascara, leather-&-lace bodices, fishnet stockings,
sequined bikinis — and worse — used to be relegated to the transvestite freak shows of San Francisco
and the debauched residents of New York, Chicago, New Orleans, and other major cities. If they ventured out of their
"adult entertainment" zones, and particularly if they attempted to associate with children, they were almost certain to face
arrest. Today, however, "progressive" politicos and the forces of political correctness that run many of our cities are
demanding that these burlesque shows be brought to toddlers in public libraries and public schools — and
that the taxpayers subsidize it.
Suspected
Dayton shooter Connor Betts' slain sister was a transgender man: report. The "sister" of the Dayton, Ohio,
shooter who was killed during the attack identified as a transgender guy — although his family had no idea,
according to a report and some of his own social media posts. Connor Betts' 22-year-old sibling was named by authorities
as Megan Betts in the days after the mass shooting, with cops releasing a statement saying relatives had lost "a daughter."
Will
Any Single Intervention Eliminate Mass Shootings? [Scroll down] The next part of this puzzle is the very
definition of "mental illness." The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Psychiatry has been modified many times.
The most recent revision has removed most of the "gender dysphoria" diagnoses, normalizing the alphabet soup of sexual
preferences. This is done in the face of the fact that LGBTQ-whatever "gender preferences" are associated with higher
mortality than binary male/female identities. Doctors are supposed to "first do no harm." Normalizing a health risk
creates harm. This means that the DSM changes are not medical, they are political.
Pete
Buttigieg: Wrong about Religion, Homosexuality, and Abortion. Practicing homosexuals are people who were
born heterosexual and are rebelling against the God-ordained plan for their lives. If a person obsesses over normal or
abnormal sexual thoughts, it is wrong and dangerous and indicates a corrupt mind and heart. God says, "For out of it
[the heart] are the issues of life." We often do what we think about. People change all the time, so counselors
should not tell people they cannot change their sexual desires. Of course they can. In February 1992, a cover
story for Newsweek featured the face of an infant and the question "Is This Child Gay?" In July 1993, The New York Times
ran a story titled "Report Suggests Homosexuality Is Linked to Genes." No, the child was not "gay," and homosexuality
is not linked to genes.
Photos
of "Drag Queen Story Hour" Event Prompt Criticism, Ire from Concerned Parents. Parents angered by "Drag Queen
Story Hour" are even more outraged as photos from an event that took place last October at Multnomah County Library in
Portland, Oregon have emerged revealing young children lying on top of the adult male drag queen. The Drag Queen Story
Hour is a national program wherein drag queens are invited to read stories to children in public libraries, schools, and
bookstores. These events are hosted in cities across the country, as well as in Germany, and have already been the
subject of significant controversy, but the emergence of the Portland photos has quickly exacerbated the controversy.
Mom
Seeks Supreme Ruling on Minor Son's Sex Change Against Her Will. A mother whose juvenile son was assisted in
sex-change procedures by authorities in Minnesota against her wishes is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to review her
case. The Thomas More Society on Wednesday asked the high court to review the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals' ruling
affirming the decision by county officials to shepherd the boy through a sex change. The petition to review Anmarie
Calgaro v. St. Louis County contends Calgaro's due process rights were trampled when the county and its referred
health providers ended her parental control over her minor son without her permission or a court order.
'Hiding
In Plain Sight Will Not Be An Option'. Our first Pride Parade was this year, and the community turned out
jubilantly for it. People who go to church with us, people who educate our kids' peers, people who serve on boards with
us, my clients, my wife's coworkers, and even some of my own family members who are retired (beholden to no one for a
paycheck) and who would have chortled at the idea of going to a Pride Parade only a few years ago. The night before the
parade, as "part of the celebration", a trans-friendly exploratory seminar was held at the public library, for pre-teens and
teens. So in Pride Month I realized that the howling lunatics who celebrate the mutilation of confused children (whose
howling I've always been too busy to get very excited about) are now after my own children's minds and hearts. And the
minds and hearts of all the children in my community. I've been very secure in the knowledge that nobody can fool me or
force me into believing lunacy, no matter what. But that is no longer what matters. As my children are heading
into adolescence, the brain-eating amoeba of progressive totalitarian ideology is down the street and heading for my front door.
National
conference teaches librarians how to sneak drag queens past parents. The American Library Association's recent
national conference provided librarians from across the country with strategies for advancing gender identity ideology in
schools and finding ways to bring "Drag Queen Story Times" into public libraries despite the objections of local
communities. The conference was held just as disturbing stories came to light across the country about Drag Queen Story
Times (DQST) held in public libraries. On the West Coast, young children were photographed having extreme physical
contact with a drag queen, while on the East Coast, a drag queen who read to young children was discovered to be involved
with numerous lurid and pornographic sexual businesses and activities.
Immorality
Embraced by So-Called Christian Love. Situation ethics — introduced in 1966 by Joseph F.
Fletcher — came into vogue as a way to excuse pre-marital fornication by Christians, and anything that could be
considered Christian judgmentalism was muted by the liberal churches. In the name of love, increasing numbers of
churches became tolerant of sin. In the contemporary church world, tolerance of sin is no longer considered kind enough
or loving enough. Now, as seen by Joel Osteen's recent appearance at an LGBTQ event, celebration of sin is the step
beyond tolerance. A "woman's right to choose" is openly embraced by many members of the National Council of
Churches. Likewise, homosexuality among the clergy is acceptable.
Key Mueller Witness
Indicted On Child Sex-Trafficking Charges. George Nader, a Lebanese-American businessman who was a key witness
in the special counsel's probe, was charged earlier in July with transporting a 14-year-old European boy to the U.S. for sex,
according to an indictment unsealed Friday [7/19/2019]. Nader was charged on three counts, including a charge for
possessing child pornography and one for traveling with a minor to engage in illegal sexual activity. He is accused of
transporting the teenage boy from Europe to his home in the U.S. in 2000.
Drag
Queen Reads 'What Color Is Your Underwear?' to Young Children. A "Drag Queen Story Hour" event at a Dallas,
Texas, library last Saturday [7/13/2019] featured two drag queens, one of whom read the story What Color Is Your Underwear?
to small children. [...] A video of the event can be viewed at the website of pro-family organization Mass Resistance, which
protested the story hour.
I
Asked A Left-Wing Doctor To Define The Word 'Man.' He Couldn't Do It. As I have argued in the past, left-wing
gender theory can be entirely dismantled and debunked with one simple question: What is a man? All of the talking
points, all of the sermonizing, all of the stuff about "transgenderism" and "gender fluidity" and "gender spectrums" —
all of it is blown to pieces by a question that my six-year-old could answer. No leftist who espouses gender theory can
provide a coherent answer to this question. Few will even attempt it.
Nasty
gay piece shows where Democrats are. The Disco Era marked the acceptance of gays in America. [...] AIDS also
did not help. I am convinced that had we quarantined the infected, we could have saved lives. Instead, we
treated it as a civil right instead of a venereal disease. 40 years (two generations) later, we have gay
marriage and a gay candidate for president, Mayor Pete Buttigieg.
Famed
Anti-Trump Surgeon Wrecked For Tweet About Men Getting Pregnant. Infamously anti-Trump surgeon Eugene Gu
claimed in a tweet posted Friday that it is "a scientific and medical fact that men can get pregnant and also have
abortions." "It's a scientific and medical fact that men can get pregnant and also have abortions," he wrote.
"Trans men and non-binary individuals are human beings who deserve to be acknowledged by society. They choose their own
identity — not me, not you, not any doctor, and certainly not any politician." [...] The tweet was met with
mockery and blowback.
Dallas Drag
Queen Show Promoted to Infants. The City of Dallas Public Library is currently advertising a controversial and
divisive drag queen show to be held at the Grauwyler Park Branch location and that the show is appropriate for age groups
from infants to 11 years old. The drag queen performers for this public library event during the day are employees of
an adult night club venue where children of this age are not permitted to enter. The drag queen event is scheduled to
take place at a public library Saturday [7/13/2019] at 1 pm where children will be able to "hear stories, sing, dance, and
interact with these fabulous ladies" according to the library event page. This Dallas event follows on the heels of a
similar and controversial drag queen event that was canceled by the city government of Leander, and in Houston where two
drag queens involved with these shows were discovered to be registered sex offenders.
U.S.
Women's Soccer Team Accused Of Snubbing Star Player For Christian Views. The absence of one of the best women's
soccer players in the nation from the national squad that just won the World Cup has prompted questions as to whether she
didn't make the team because of her openly professed Christian faith. [...] The Irish Times, which called Hinkle "the finest
left-back in the NWSL," wrote in June, "Hinkle likely would have been a fish out of water on the uber-woke women's national
team, some of whose biggest stars are openly lesbian, raising questions about whether she would have thrown off the squad's
chemistry."
Epstein,
Bean & Buck: The Democratic Donors' Sex-Creep Club. Terry Bean is the prominent gay rights activist who
co-founded the influential Human Rights Campaign organization. He is also a veteran member of the board of the HRC
Foundation, which disseminates Common Core-aligned "anti-bullying" material to children's schools nationwide. Like
Epstein, Bean had a penchant for rubbing elbows and riding on planes with the powerful. Upon doling out more than
$500,000 for President Barack Obama and the Democrats in 2012, he was rewarded with a much-publicized exclusive Air Force One
ride with Obama. His Flickr account boasted glitzy pics with Michelle Obama and Bill Clinton. Like Epstein, Bean
also had a thing for young minors.

Peace Treaty or Suicide
Pact. Louisville, KY mayor recently declared June 10-17 as Pride Week, celebrating 'diversity' and the LGBTQ
community. Many public libraries and public schools are being made available to promote the gay life-style complete
with the gay flag flying outside. Recently, hundreds of students were pulled out of a public school in Rocklin,
California by their parents because of a new LGBTQ curriculum beginning with 2nd graders. Parents were originally
allowed to opt out of such programs, but no longer. Parents pulled their kids out anyway. Other states
have implemented similar programs beginning as early as pre-school. They include books and activities meant to introduce
alternate life styles like switching genders and having same sex parents, making them seem normal and commonplace.
Joel
Osteen Flys to New York for LGBTQD Event. Houston Pastor Joel Osteen and his lovely wife Victoria, publicly
showed their support of the LGBTQD — Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Transgender, Queers and Debauchery practitioners, by
attending a Lady Gaga event at Harlem's Apollo theater which celebrated Gay Pride Month. It is not clear if the Osteens
were there with Lady Gaga, who would have invited them, or, if they simply got on a plane, paid for the tickets and flew
there. The entire event was centered around "Gay Pride."
The Editor says...
I was somewhat suspicious when I first read the article immediately above, because it's not the kind of story one should
spread around, unless the story's authenticity can be confirmed beyond a reasonable doubt. It's one thing to go where
the homosexuals and transvestites are, to show them they are in error. It is quite another thing to consort with the
homosexuals and abet their "Pride" event for commercial (SiriusXM) gain. The Bible says, "Blessed is the man
that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful."
[Psalm 1:1]
This means that a Christian has no business participating in and celebrating an event like the one described in the
article above, and in the next few articles below.
Obviously, the political left has no qualms
about lying, and they would probably love to see Joel Osteen go the way of Jimmy Swaggart, so any story of this kind is dubious.
What to do? The Bible also says, "One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any
sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established."
[Deuteronomy 19:15] Here are the additional witnesses:
Witness #2
Joel
Osteen Attends Lady Gaga LGBT Pride Event. Gaga began by asking the crowd, "Are you ready to f____ing party
tonight?" In the crowd were Joel and Victoria Osteen, who were indeed ready to party. The event was hosted
to celebrate gay pride at the Apollo theater and the pastor of the nation's largest 'church' was in attendance. [...] The
event was basically a theatrically performed representation of the Biblical city of Sodom, and the crowd couldn't be gayer
to be there.
Witness #3
Joel
Osteen Celebrates LGBTQ Pride at Lady Gaga Event. Megachurch speaker and author Joel Osteen and his wife
Victoria were among a number of celebrities, including drag queens, actors and music industry personalities, who attended the
"SiriusXM and Pandora Present Lady Gaga at the Apollo" concert on Monday night [6/24/2019] in New York City. The two posed
on the carpet for a photograph next to a SiriusXM/Pandora/Lady Gaga backdrop, which is posted online. "Are you ready to
[expletive] party tonight? Are we making history?" Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, asked the crowd as
she opened the show, according to the New York Daily News.
Witness #4
Joel
Osteen Celebrates LGBTQ Pride at Lady Gaga Event. This is not satire, this really happened. Joel Osteen,
one of the modern-day princes of the Word of Faith prosperity gospel movement, was seen at Lady Gaga's pride celebration at
Apollo Theater on Monday night [6/24/2019]. The New York Daily News reports [...]
Witness #5
Joel
Osteen Celebrates LGBTQ Pride at Lady Gaga Event. Lady Gaga is known for her risque performances and lack of
modest attire. Being that Osteen is a charlatan who has been given over to the lusts of this world and bilks millions
of people for every dime they have, it comes as no surprise that he and his wife, Victoria, would immerse themselves in the
culture of demonic influence, sex, and greed. [...] Interestingly, Osteen asserted a few years ago that he believes that the
Scriptures are clear that homosexuality is a sin. Yet, he has continuously softened his tone and downplayed the
significance toward homosexuality since then. In an effort to remain culturally relevant and inclusive, Osteen
generally avoids the topic altogether.
Witness #6
Lady
Gaga shows Pride in sexy Apollo Theater show. [Amy] Poehler wasn't the only heavy hitter in the crowd. From
Alaska Thunder[...], a drag performer who won Season 2 of "RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars" to the controversial televangelist
and anti-LGBTQ pastor Joel Osteen, the event drew an eclectic mix of fans, industry insiders and celebrities, from the movies
(Catherine Zeta-Jones, Michael Douglas), the music universe (Clive Davis, Adam Lambert), the fashion world (Alexander Wang),
television (John Oliver, Camila Mendes) and the America's gay Royal couple and Harlem residents Neil Patrick Harris and [his]
husband David Burtka. Osteen's presence was curious, because Gaga has championed LGBTQ causes.
Witness #7
Joel
and Victoria Osteen Attend Lady Gaga Concert, Pose for Sirius/Pandora Merger. The Osteens have their own
channel on SiriusXM, which according to its description, features "daily messages of hope and inspiration, live call-in shows
and with Joel and Victoria, and special live services." Being connected to the network is likely the reason why they were
invited to the event. Christian News contacted Joel Osteen Ministries to inquire about the appearance, but was told by
a representative that she didn't know anything about the matter as she had just learned of it and that any statement would
have to come from Joel himself. Some outlets expressed bewilderment as to why the Osteens attended since it was assumed
that he opposes homosexuality, which Gaga advocates.
Will Amazon ban the Bible
next? In a very disturbing move, Amazon has removed the books of Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, the psychologist
whom critics have dubbed "the father of conversion therapy." In other words, for claiming that sexual orientation is not
innate and immutable, and for claiming that change is possible, Dr. Nicolosi's books must be banned. This leads to
the logical question: Will Amazon ban the Bible next?
Designers
refuse to be at conference if Christian is there. The Dallas-Fort Worth chapter of the American Institute of
Graphic Arts makes a big deal about inclusion, with a pages-long statement concerning its "passionate conversations" about
ethnicity, gender, race, ability, disability and age. But its policy of inclusion apparently goes only so far.
That became clear after AIGA declared it would not participate in a design conference unless a Christian speaker was
excluded. Fox News reported the Dallas-Fort Worth chapter of AIGA refused to partner with the Circles Conference, a
three-day event for graphics and user experience designers, if David Roark was on the speakers roster. Roark is the
communications director for The Village Church, a Texas megachurch.
Oreos:
Not just a cookie anymore, now a political statement. Nabisco and the other parent companies of Oreos, Cadbury,
and Mondelez International, have made a political decision to link arms with the NCTE and indoctrinate America's
schoolchildren into the transgender movement. You will be made to think that sexuality is fluid and gender is not
limited to male and female even if it requires your children to be used as pawns. The party of science is willing to
deny the existence of biological certainties, like chromosomes, in order to appease the politically woke.
California
Assembly Approves Resolution That Calls for Church Acceptance of LGBTQ. The California State Assembly voted 9-2
to send to the state senate a resolution calling on "religious leaders to counsel on LGBTQ matters from a place of love,
compassion, and knowledge of the psychological and other harms of conversion therapy." While no one would argue with
the aim of being more loving and more compassionate in our counsel of our fellow man, the people's representatives do not
possess any authority in the arena of religious practice.
De
Blasio: Medicare for All Should Cover Gender Reassignment Surgery. New York City mayor Bill de Blasio
said Medicare for All should cover gender reassignment surgeries on Sunday [6/30/2019]. "Absolutely. We have to
respect everyone's medical needs," de Blasio said at New York City's pride parade, when asked if the procedure should be
covered in a Medicare for All system, according to comments reported by the Daily Caller. "If someone needs a surgery
to be full and to live their life fully — the idea is a health care system that actually serves everyone to the
fullest, not a health care system that rations and causes people to struggle to get just a little health care."
The Editor says...
If you really believe that a sex change operation is "just a little health care," you should take your browsing
somewhere else, because this web site is not for you.
Tensions between
trans women and gay men boil over at Stonewall anniversary. A black transgender woman wanted to be heard, but
the white men wanted to celebrate. The scene at New York City's Stonewall Inn on Saturday [6/29/2019], as reported by
multiple witnesses on social media, showed how long-simmering tensions between transgender women of color and white gay men
have boiled over during the celebration of World Pride and the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall uprising.
Chick-fil-A
in NYC vandalized during Pride parade. A Chick-fil-A in Manhattan was vandalized Sunday [6/30/2019], during the
World Pride Parade. As first reported by the Daily Caller, cross-shaped pink tape that read "F*** haters" marked the
front window of the midtown Manhattan location, which was closed during the parade for Sunday. The same epithet was
scrawled in black marker on the window. A colorfully decorated sign with the message, "LOVE is a terrible thing to
waste" was also seen propped up against the door.
Marchers
protest New York's 'commercialized' Pride parade. Chanting slogans of defiance, thousands of marchers took to
the streets of New York on Sunday to protest commercialization of the city's official Pride parade attended by millions of
people a few blocks away. The alternative Queer Liberation March in downtown Manhattan was designed to be a return to
"a people's political march" without corporate sponsorship and police barricades, organizers said.
Presbyterian
church features drag queen reading story to children about LGBTQ icon Harvey Milk. Last Sunday [6/23/2019], Dan
Davidson briefly stepped out of his role as caretaker of Cincinnati's Mount Auburn Presbyterian Church and became "Sparkle
Leigh" — dressed in drag with tons of makeup and glitter — to read a story to children during the
service about LGBTQ icon Harvey Milk, the assassinated San Francisco politician who was openly gay, the Cincinnati Enquirer
reported. Davidson wore a pink, flowing dress and a green curly wig, the outlet said, adding that the congregation
clapped during "exciting parts of the tale."
Calls

Perry, who shares her journey from lesbian to Christian poet, writer, and hip-hop artist in her book "Gay Girl Good God,"
recently retweeted a TED Talk speaker who normalizes pedophilia. Perry's thread started Tuesday when she posted a tweet
by Ian Miles Cheong, who wrote, "This is apparently mainstream now. Hosted by TED Talks." He then pulled out a quote
from a presenter. "Pedophilia is an unchangeable sexual orientation."

Corey
Johnson announces $19M in new LGBT programs as city celebrates World Pride weekend. City Council Speaker Corey
Johnson announced $19 million in funding for LGBT support programs in honor of Pride, including big boosts to help
transgender people. On World Pride weekend in the city, Johnson said the move to nearly double funding for the programs
marks a sea change in New York's approach to the gay community. "Acceptance is not enough," Johnson said. "Our
local government must fund programs that support the LBGTQ community, particularly transgender people."
Why
Trans Activists Will Destroy Homosexual Rights. Beneath the lavish media praise, the trans movement is hiding a
litany of self-annihilating logic and regressive attitudes that merit public conversation. Aside from changing language
to suit their subjective identity, the push to deny women sex-segregated protections, and the aggressive support for the
transitioning of children, the often overlooked reality to this activism is the movement's blatantly aggressive
homophobia. They claim to fight for "inclusivity," but in pushing trans ideology, these activists are, either wittingly
or unwittingly, actively erasing lesbians, gays, and any legislation intended to protect them. These supposed defenders
of gays and lesbians are endangering the people they claim to fight for by selling out the community they call their own.
Fake
women being offered Pap smears and breast screenings, but real women are not. Ordinarily, catering to people
who think or claim to be a gender other than the one nature assigned them is silly but harmless. But now Public
Health England (formerly the National Health Service) has implemented a practice that could prove deadly. It has begun
inviting men who identify as women to come in for annual Pap smears and breast screenings despite their lack of a cervix on
which to administer the first test. But PHE has also stopped inviting women who identify as men to come in for these
crucial screenings out of fear of offending them.
Americans
Still Greatly Overestimate U.S. Gay Population. U.S. adults estimate that nearly one in four Americans (23.6%)
are gay or lesbian. Gallup has previously found that Americans have greatly overestimated the U.S. gay population,
recording similar average estimates of 24.6% in 2011 and 23.2% in 2015. In each of the three polls in which Gallup has asked
this question, a majority of Americans estimated this population to be 20% or greater.
Yankees

Erupts After Dem Presidential Candidate Promotes Abortion Rights for Transgender Women. When it comes to
so-called "abortion rights", Democratic presidential candidate Julián Castro believes no one should be excluded from the

Psychologists
Can't Figure Out Why Hardly Anyone Wants To Date A Trans Person. A recent Journal of Social and Personal
Relationships study found that nearly 90 percent of survey respondents are not interested in dating transgender people.
In a Psychology Today article on the study, coauthor Karen Blair implies these findings demonstrate significant discrimination —
or at least an unwillingness to be inclusive — in dating. However, instead of pointing out the obvious truth that
biological cues are foundational for sexual and romantic attraction, the author goes to great lengths to convey sympathy for the exclusion
of transgenders in the dating field as if it's merely a social justice issue. This is yet another avenue progressives are using to
encourage others to deny biological reality and normalize abnormal behaviors.
Making
LGBT a Protected Class Will Kill Religious Liberty. The current campaign to amend federal and state civil
rights laws to extend protections to sexual orientation and gender identity isn't meant to eliminate discrimination —
it's meant to eliminate religious freedom. What else are we to believe when proponents of such amendments tell us as much?
Earlier this month, Michigan State Senator Jeremy Moss introduced legislation to amend the state's civil rights law to add sexual
orientation and sexual identity as protected classes. One of the main objections to changing the law before now has been the
harm it must do to conscience protections and the free exercise of religion. Like their federal cousin, the Equality Act,
these laws can't ensure equality because, as gay writer Brad Polumbo explains, they work by "elevating [LGBT] rights over those
of religious Americans." Senator Moss isn't even pretending this isn't the case.
Mastercard
to unleash massive identity theft wave across America by allowing "gender fluid" individuals to use any name they want on
their credit cards. A recent Mastercard company announcement explains that many members of the LGBTQIA+
community are experiencing "major pain" from having to use credit cards, debit cards, or prepaid cards that don't "reflect
their true identity." So, Mastercard plans to fix this by allowing LGBTQIA+s to use any made-up name they want —
swinging wide open the door for mass identity theft.
The Editor says...
Identity theft is one thing, but this opens the door to fraud, most of all. One cannot take advantage of credit
if the customer, the merchant, and the bank can't even agree on the customer's name. Anyone who is so confused and so mercurial
about his or her own name should have a credit rating of zero. Pay in cash or be gone.
Man
Gets Interrogated By Police For Liking A 'Transphobic' Limerick On Twitter — It's Recorded As A 'Hate Incident'.
In the UK lives a man named Harry Miller. As per Metro.co.uk, Harry has a particular viewpoint: "Trans women are not
women." On Twitter, there arose a post containing a limerick. The poem appeared to mock transgenderism. Harry
"liked" the tweet. Subsequently, he was interrogated by police for half an hour.

Wonder
if I'll get banned by Twitter for this one!. I figured that I'd better get a screenshot!
"Social
justice" homosexuals actively working to contaminate the blood donor supply with blood-borne diseases, claiming safety is
"discrimination". The me-centered mindset of LGBTQP cultists knows no bounds, as homosexual men in the United
Kingdom are now knowingly contaminating the blood donor supply with their tainted blood in order to selfishly achieve what
they perceive and demand as "equality" with non-LGBTQPs. Even though U.K. law prohibits sodomites from donating blood
if they've had sexual relations with other men in the past three months — the purpose of this being to protect
vulnerable patients from contracting sexually-transmitted diseases (STDs) — some self-worshiping gays are
reportedly lying on medical forms and donating their blood anyway — because "tolerance" and "love."
Colorado
STEM shooter says he targeted students over criticism about being transgender. The transgender student accused
of shooting up a Colorado school told police that he wanted other students to "suffer from trauma like he had to in his
life." One of the two alleged shooters, 16-year-old Alec McKinney, is transgender and identifies as male.
McKinney told officers that he wanted to take revenge on students at the STEM school in Colorado for how they treated him.
Who
Are the Rich, White Men Institutionalizing Transgender Ideology? As an environmental activist who was
deplatformed from a speaking venue by transactivists, in 2013 I developed curiosity about the power of this group to force
this development. A year later, when Time magazine announced a transgender tipping point on its cover, I had
already begun to examine the money behind the transgender project. I have watched as all-women's safe spaces,
universities, and sports opened their doors to any man who chose to identify as a woman. Whereas men who identify as
transwomen are at the forefront of this project, women who identify as transmen seem silent and invisible. I was
astonished that such a huge cultural change as the opening of sex-protected spaces was happening at such a meteoric pace and
without consideration for women and girls' safety, deliberation, or public debate.
Minnesota
United Methodist Church members take a stand against anti-LGBTQ policies. United Methodist Church parishioners
in Minnesota are taking a stand on an issue that's dividing the church. This week at the Minnesota Annual Conference of
the United Methodist Church, members voted to make the church more inclusive, voting to reject the church's long-standing
policies involving LGBTQ members and clergy. The move came after church delegates from around the world voted in
February to keep bans on same-sex marriage and LGBTQ clergy in place in the church.

Jailed During 'Drag Queen Story Hour,' SWAT Team Snipers Positioned Atop Library Roof. A Baptist pastor was arrested
and jailed on Saturday [6/15/2019] after refusing to move across the street from the Spokane, Washington Public Library while
exercising his free speech against a "Drag Queen Story Hour." The event had a significant militaristic police presence,
including camouflaged snipers positioned atop the roof to oversee the large crowd that stood both for and against the men dressed
like women reading stories to children. Afhsin Yaghtin of New Covenant Baptist Church was arrested for obstructing an
officer as he contended with police that the South Hill Library is public property and that he should be able to speak adjacent
to the facility instead of being required to stand across the street.

Pride
really is nothing to boast about. The rise of the LGBTQ movement has turned the tables in American
culture. Before the 1990s, homosexuality was generally considered abnormal. Certainly not something to be proud
of. It was seen as shameful. My, how the times have changed. Today the only ones shamed are those who dare
speak out in favor of traditional moral roles of men and women. Say anything even mildly critical of LGBTQs and it can
cost you your livelihood. [...] The LGBTQ movement, while powerful, is also the most sensitive social movement in the
country. Make any indication of disapproval and you get labeled a "bigot" or a "hater" and publicly shamed. It's
really scary for a lot of Americans who are forced to attend corporate "diversity training," which is code for force-feeding
the LGBTQ agenda on them. The truth is the LGBTQ activists have basically conquered the Western world. The only
thing they lack is shutting down the Christian church, which still believes that homosexuality is a sin because the Bible
teaches as much.
Lesbian
Pair Performed At-home "Sex Change" on Young Son — Then Killed Him. This could only happen in the
age of "transgender" ideology. In Brazil, a woman and her lesbian partner removed her nine-year-old son's penis,
claiming that he "wanted to be a girl." A year later they murdered him, with the mother stating that she hated her son
because he reminded her of her father. [...] Since the two women obviously are quite deranged, [the child's] treatment would
have been shoddy regardless. Yet it's hard to imagine this story unfolding as it did absent "transgender" ideology.
After all, where does a person get the idea that a "boy can become a girl" and that superficial mutilation effects this change
in being? Making ideas part of the public consciousness has consequences.
Lesbians
Murder 9-Year-Old Son After Cutting Off His Genitals To Make Him "Transgender". While not all those who engage
in homosexuality do this, what they are doing is a crime against nature, but it is clear that the Bible's explanation that
God has turned them over to a reprobate mind to dishonor themselves is true, and this story comes just in time to expose the
depths of depravity of the LGBTQ crowd.

MTA
celebrates LGBTQ culture with Pride-themed trains, MetroCards. The MTA is marking the 50th anniversary of
Stonewall uprising with a series of World Pride themed MetroCards and special Pride logos that will be put on trains across
the city, agency officials said Friday [6/14/2019].
Why opposing
the LGBTQ agenda is not bigotry. Back in April of this year, Michael W. Chapman penned a column for CNS about
Ana Samuel, Ph.D., the research scholar and pro-traditional marriage activist who warned 2020 Democratic presidential hopeful
Pete Buttigieg that his homosexual ideology is "dangerous to the nation." Samuel maintains that while civility is paramount
in the debate over this issue, she also asserts that her following (representing millions of mothers with traditional family
values) will resist "policies that assault our values, harm our families, and hurt our children." Ms. Samuel is a
notable figure, not only because she is dynamic and well-educated, but because she is Latina, and therefore is bucking the
system to which a majority of Americans of Latin descent hold allegiance. Samuel happens to be the daughter of Mexican
immigrants, and her husband is an Argentine immigrant. The couple have six children.
The Democrats are showing us where their priorities lie:
Maryland Government Building
Replaces POW/MIA Flag With LGBT Flag. The Montgomery County Council faced backlash after a flag honoring
America's missing soldiers was replaced with a rainbow gay pride flag to celebrate LGBT Pride Month. Led by the
county's first ever LGBT council member Evan Glass, the POW/MIA flag was removed from its flagstaff outside the Maryland
county's executive office building Monday morning, reported NBC Washington. The move drew immediate criticism.
"When I was in Vietnam, I was there six days before two guys were missing in action, and they still haven't found their
bodies," John "Bill" Williams, a Vietnam veteran, said to the television station.
Masterpiece
Cakeshop Owner Sued Again after Refusing to Bake 'Gender Transition' Cake. Jack Phillips — the
Colorado bakery owner who prevailed in a religious-liberty case before the Supreme Court last year — has once
again been sued, this time for refusing to bake a cake celebrating a customer's gender transition. Autumn Scardina, a
transgender Colorado woman, filed a civil suit against Phillips on Wednesday [6/5/2019] over his refusal to bake her a cake
that was to be blue on the outside and pink on the inside in celebration of her transition.
The Editor says...
Perhaps it would be more appropriate if the finished product was a blue cake on the outside, and a dung heap on the inside.
Instagram Promotes 'Trans Disabled Model'
Who Is Calling For The Killing Of All 'Transphobes'. Facebook-owned Instagram on Monday [6/10/2019] promoted
"trans disabled model" Aaron Philip, 18, across their platform and to their more than 304 million followers in honor of Pride
Month. [...] After Instagram promoted Philip all over their site, Twitter and on Facebook, Philip within hours began calling
for the "killing" of all "transphobes."
Brown and Out in Beverly
Hills. Leftists advance incrementally. Their template is as simple as it is predictable: Ask for a
little, and swear that the demands will end there. Most regular folks will give in because decent people generally seek
compromise. But to leftists, compromise is merely a temporary step, a strategy. "We don't want gay marriage, we
just want equal partner benefits! Civil unions will shut us up." "Don't Ask, Don't Tell is fine. It's not
like we want the military to pay for tranny surgeries!" "Gender discrimination laws will not lead to the
government forcing women to let men use their bathrooms."
Restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men.
Vatican
Rejects Gender Theory as Contrary to 'Right Reason'. The Vatican has condemned "gender theory" for attempting
to separate a person's gender from their biological sex, leading to an untenable "utopia of the neuter." In its 30-page
text, titled Male and Female He Created Them, the Vatican's Congregation for Catholic Education denounces an "educational
crisis" stemming from efforts to indoctrinate children with mistaken notions of gender fluidity and human sexuality.
Pence
On Flying Gay Pride Flag On U.S. Embassy Flagpoles: We Have One American Flag. Speaking with NBC News on
Monday [6/10/2019], Vice President Mike Pence did not back down when asked if he supported the State Department's decision
not to fly the rainbow Gay Pride flag on the flagpoles outside American embassies. Pence stated, "I'm aware that the
State Department indicated that on the flagpole of our American embassies that one flag should fly, and that's the American
flag. And I support that. ... when it comes to the American flagpole at American embassies at capitals across the
world, having the one American flag fly, I think, is the right decision."
Rep. Ilhan
Omar slams 'bigoted' Trump administration for barring pride flag from foreign embassies. Rep. Ilhan Omar,
D., Minn., has accused the Trump administration of being "bigoted" amid reports that U.S. embassies have had requests to fly
the rainbow Pride flag denied. June is Pride Month, promoting visibility for the LGBTQ community, and U.S. embassies in
Israel, Germany, Brazil, and Latvia made requests to the Trump administration to fly the flag on the official embassy
flagpole in honor of Pride. According to NBC News, those requests were denied by the State Department.
U.S.
embassies defying Trump admin by flying 'gay pride' flag: 'This is category one insurrection'. The U.S.
diplomatic corps, much of which hails from far-Left Ivy League institutions, has been the most defiant when it comes to
obeying POTUS Donald Trump's policies, as evident by the fact that several American embassies have hoisted the "gay pride"
rainbow flag in defiance of the president. After the Trump administration formally denied requests from multiple United
States embassies to hoist the LGBT flag in honor of "Pride Month," several of them, along with other diplomatic missions, are
doing it anyway. As reported by the Washington Post, several U.S. embassies are finding ways to either defy or
show opposition to, the White House's instructions.
Disturbing
Video Surfaces Of Childrens' Drag Show, With Touchy-Feely Adults. As reported last week, a venue called the
Friendly House played host to a child centric drag queen show in Portland (where else), featuring 10 year old
drag kid Sparkle Lynn More. It was also promoted on MensGo.com as a gay audience event. Street videographer
Brandon Farley attended the event and has posted video of the entire thing on his YouTube channel.
Time
for the LGBT Movement to Leave the Kids Alone. This summer, PBS Kids premiered an episode of the children's
show Arthur in which a teacher, Mr. Ratburn, "marries" another male character. Even before this premiere,
PBS was already infusing the LGBT agenda into its programming. In between its shows, a happy song about families
included an image of two dads with a baby and lyrics to that effect. Disney and other children's stations long ago
jumped onto the LGBT bandwagon with their line-up. As a Guardian headline noted in 2016, "From Nickelodeon to
Disney: Children's TV leads the way for LGBT characters," with same-sex unions featuring prominently in shows. It
is not just television, of course. Rumors now fly that even Elsa of Frozen may be a lesbian in the Disney
sequel. In fact, if you have a preschooler or early elementary-school child nowadays, you will find same-sex sexual
relationships, as well as transgender advocacy, advertised throughout your children's media and public programming.
2020
Democrats call to end ban on gay men donating blood. A growing number of Democratic presidential candidates in
the 2020 election are calling for an end to a long-held standard for blood donations, which critics say enforces latent
homophobia and leaves America's blood supply vulnerable to unscientific limits. That policy, which bans gay and
bisexual men who have had sex with other men within the past year from donating blood, has been criticised as unnecessary in
terms of modern scientific testing for blood-borne sexually transmitted diseases like HIV — modern tests can find
the virus in the bloodstream within two weeks.
LGBT
People Are Not Oppressed Or Persecuted In This Country. As everyone knows, June is African-American Music
Appreciation Month. It's also National Safety Month and National Smile Month. And we can't forget that it is ALS
Awareness Month, Alzheimer's and Brain Awareness Month, Cataract Awareness Month, Hernia Awareness Month, Myasthenia Gravis
Awareness Month, National Aphasia Awareness Month, National Congenital Cytomegalovirus Awareness Month, National Scleroderma
Awareness Month, and Scoliosis Awareness Month. But all of these holy observances must take a backseat to the most
hallowed of them all: LGBT Pride Month.
Frankenstein
Designer Kids: What You Don't Know About Gender-Transitioning Will Blow Your Mind. Puberty-blocking
drugs, mastectomies, vaginal surgery and fake penises — all with zero chance of reversal — these are
just some of the radical experimental methods being used on children. The madness must stop.
Florida
Rep. Mike Hill vs. the Gay Establishment. Another day, another round of hypocrisy and manufactured outrage
by Florida's political left-wing: In the latest fake upset, a Halloween-coalition of the state's LGBT lobby and GOP
establishment hacks have set their sights on one of the state's two black Republican legislators. His crime?
Laughing off a patently ridiculous proposal by a constituent that he propose legislation criminalizing sodomy.
Transgenderism
vs. Free Speech in BC. The British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal (BCHRT) recently decided a case
involving a flyer distributed by a street preacher, William Whatcott, challenging the candidacy for provincial office of a
man who identified publicly as a woman. Whatcott apparently handed out 1500 flyers on street corners, stuffed them in
mailboxes, taped them to doors and even put a copy on the internet, things that many political campaigners do today.
Whatcott's target was Morgane Oger, a trans-woman running for the leftist New Democratic Party (NDP) in the 2017 British
Columbia election. His flyer ("Transgenderism vs. Truth in Vancouver-False Creek") exposed Oger's claim to be "a
woman born into a male body" as fraudulent. "The truth" he said, "is there are only two genders, male and female and
they are God-given and unchangeable. Morgan's DNA will always be male, he will never have a uterus and no amount of
cosmetic surgery, fake hormones, or media propaganda is going to be able to change these facts." He concluded by
calling on people not to vote for the Oger or the NDP. Oger lost the election. Oger then filed a complaint with
the BCHRT, alleging the flyer violated section 7 of the Provincial Human Rights Code which, among other things, prohibited
publication of any statement that "indicates discrimination or an intention to discriminate."
Target
goes full speed LGBTQ with 'Love my dads' shirts for kiddies. Target, the object of long-running Christian
group boycott — because of its opening of bathrooms and dressing rooms to those of both sexes — has now
found a new way to bolster its prestige with the LGBTQ movement: The retailer is selling "Love my dads" and "Love my
moms" shirts. And donating $100,000 to the Gay, Lesbian Straight Education Network. Gotta get those LGBTQ
dollars, right? Let the boycotts begin anew, say members of the American Family Association.
Biden declares LGBTQ rights his No. 1 legislative
priority. Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden declared Saturday [6/1/2019] that the Equality Act would be his top
legislative priority, an effort to enshrine LGBTQ protections into the nation's labor and civil rights laws.
Socialist group celebrates 'literally no straight
people'. The Young Democratic Socialists of America chapter at Texas State University celebrated on Twitter
that there are "literally no straight people" on its e-board. The group issued the tweet on the third day of LGBT
"Pride Month."
Teachers
Crown Transgender Prom King at Massachusetts High School. A Massachusetts high school named a biological female
prom king Friday [5/31/2019]. "Nicholas Bulman, the Barnstable High School student who came out as transgender last
summer, was crowned prom king at the Class of 2019's celebration Friday night at the Resort and Conference Center at
Hyannis," according to The Cape Cod Times. Students did not have the opportunity to vote, according to the
report. Instead, teachers chose Bulman from a list of five prom king candidates, and chose the prom queen from a list
of five girls.
WHO
will no longer categorize transgender as mental disorder. The World Health Organization will no longer categorize
transgender people as having a mental disorder, according to reports. "Gender Identity Disorder" was removed from the
organization's classification of diseases as of last weekend and will now be referred to as "gender incongruence," included
in WHO's section about sexual health, Time reported.
The Death of the Democratic
Party. In a recent speech in Las Vegas, Pete Buttigieg, the Democratic presidential candidate from South Bend,
Indiana, spoke about the dangers posed by "so-called identity politics." [...] Must everything revolve around the trans
community? Seriously? Trans people make up about of 0.6% of the American population, yet they make up almost 100%
of the conversation. One assumes that a large number of Americans are fed up with constantly being told to "embrace"
transgender and gender nonconforming people, to "empathize" with their collective struggle. This does not mean that the
exasperated are transphobic. The vast majority wish no harm on people who are uncomfortable with their identities.
They just happen to have more personal, more pressing issues that need addressing, like trying to pay their bills, keep their
jobs, or send their children to a decent college.
This isn't advertising. It's propaganda.
Woke:
New Gillette Ad Features Dad Teaching Transgender Son How to Shave. Gillette's latest ad shows a dad teaching
his transgender son how to shave. "Whenever, wherever, however it happens — your first shave is special,"
Gillette said in the caption to the video posted to their official Facebook page.
The Editor says...
As usual, what you see on television is an inversion of the truth: I challenge you to find a girl who thinks she's a boy
who actually has a father around. I don't think you can such a case, except on television. In any case, there is no such
thing as a "transgender son." Your daughter may be a transvestite who chooses to dress and act like a man, but every cell in
her body still has female chromosomes.
The Nefariousness
of Trans Ideology. When it comes to the increased number of people identifying as transgender, greater social
acceptance of a previously stigmatized condition clearly plays a role in this process. Nevertheless, the rates at which
young people are identifying as transgender are soaring at an alarming rate. A 2018 study carried out by Lisa Littman,
a physician and professor of behavioral science at Brown University, found that the vast majority of the youth in her sample
who identified as trans all had one thing in common: They had been directly exposed to one or more peers who had
recently "come out" as trans. Furthermore, these children, according to their parents, had exhibited a noticeable
increase in internet and social media consumption. Transgenederism, it appears, was trending.
The
Trans Lobby Is Now Marketing to Your Kids. As the LGBT movement continues to grow in power and influence, it
has started to market drag and transgender ideology to the most gullible group out there: children. These efforts
normalize concepts that are unscientific and that promote medical treatments that many medical professionals oppose.
Take what happened recently on Mother's Day. Chips Ahoy!, king of the commercialized, processed cookie, tweeted an
endorsement of its product by Vanessa Vanjie Mateo, the name of a well-known drag queen.
The Editor says...
Drag queen is another way to say transvestite. A "trans woman" is also a transvestite.
The
Equality Act would turn America upside down. Democrats in the House are celebrating Friday's [5/17/2019]
passage of the Equality Act, a misnamed legal jackhammer that would add "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" to federal
civil rights law. It goes far beyond allowing men into women's sports and locker rooms, as bad as that is. It
provides the state with the power to persecute anyone who won't celebrate any aspect of the LGBTQ agenda. Far from
merely expanding civil rights categories, it turns any recognition of the differences between the sexes or any preference for
traditional sexual morality into actionable "hate," creating fertile grounds for lawsuits.
Pediatric
endocrinologist says 'transgender therapy' is dangerous to kids; backed by no real 'science'. In a claim that
is likely to earn him a visit by scores of deranged Left-wing social justice warriors, a noted pediatric endocrinologist said
Friday that 'transgender therapy' now being administered to kids is essentially based on zero real 'science' and largely
experimental. That is, it's largely political.
1987
LGBTQ Demands Become Law in the Equality Act. Remember when activists on the Supreme Court made same-sex
marriage in essence the law of the land? Elated, Obama said, "Love wins!" He celebrated the unconstitutional
destruction of the God ordained sacred institution of marriage by ordering that the White House be lit in rainbow
colors. Leftists decreed that the LGBTQ lifestyle is a "beautiful thing" which Americans had better embrace or
suffer severe punishment.
UK:
Parents Gender Transition Son, 7, and Foster Son, 3, to Female. A British judge has given his approval to the
foster parents of a transgender child who "transitioned" to their new gender at just three-years-old. The two parents,
named only as TP and CP, already had a seven-year-old biological child who had changed their gender from boy to girl just
months earlier.
Chips
Ahoy! mocks people upset over 'drag moms' ad: 'They're big mad'. Nabisco's Chips Ahoy! cookie brand on Sunday [5/12/2019]
mocked people who were upset over the company's Mother's Day ad that featured a recent contestant on "RuPaul's Drag Race." Jose
Cancel, a drag queen who uses the stage name Vanessa Vanjie Mateo, recorded a video for the cookie company urging people to buy cookies
for their moms and "drag moms" for Mother's Day.
The Editor says...
Well, there's another product to boycott. Used to be my favorite cookie, but I'm not buying them any more. Not now. Not ever. Never.
Twitter
going after the scientists in conflict with transgender activist orthodoxy now. Ray Blanchard, Ph.D. is no Alex
Jones with out-there conspiracy theories. He's a respected scientist whose research on transgenderism is science-based
and consistent with existing research on the reality of gender dysphoria, the psychological disorder that prompts some
patients to attempt to change their sex. He's also quite compassionate toward these individuals, as they are his
patients, but his research is premised on hard, fact-based research, such as that there is no changing a person's
chromosomes, even if a person has altered his body through surgery. [...] In short, he's a moderate, with views well within
the mainstream of science. And Twitter banned him — not for saying anything wild, not for insulting anyone,
but for publishing his research.
Why
Have Department of Defense Suicides Spiked? For decades, transvestites and transgenders experienced one of the highest
overall suicide rates for people with mental illnesses. According to Suicide.org, 90% of all suicides are the result of
untreated mental disorders. Over 60% (and possibly up to 90% as shown at Case Western) of transgender people have comorbid psychiatric
disorders, which often go wholly untreated. Transgender people report attempting suicide at a staggering rate — above 40%. Some
studies at Suicide.org have it as high as over fifty percent, regardless of whether the transgender opted for sexual reassignment surgery or
not. It was DOD policy to screen for homosexuality up until 1993. President Clinton removed the recruit screening process for
homosexuality as well as for personality disorders and mental illnesses when he signed Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
The
Destructive Equality Act of 2019. My dictionary defines psychosis as "a severe mental disorder in which thought
and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality." We now have a majority of members of Congress
who are prepared to pass into law that the sex individuals are born with — their chromosomal and physical
reality — will take a back seat to how those individuals choose to define their own sexual identity.
Henceforth, we'll be done with the idea that there is some objective reality independent of what of any particular individual
decides it is. I once complained that our society was denying morality — right and wrong. Now we're
beyond this. We're denying reality in its entirety.
Walk Away Event Encourages LGBT People
To Separate From The Democratic Party. I like a lot of Austen Fletcher's videos but this one is a bit different
than most. In this clip, Fletcher isn't at a campus talking to people, he's at an event in West Hollywood called "#Walk
Away" which is aimed at encouraging LGBT people to consider distancing themselves from the Democratic Party.
The Editor says...
No, that's okay, you can stay with the Democrats. This country doesn't need two Democratic Parties.
The Democrats are welcome to retain their core constituents: welfare queens, prostitutes, homosexuals, bikers, communists,
homeless bums, and assorted troublemakers.
The
credentialed media's creeping attempts to normalize 'transgenderism'. It was not so long ago that the
credentialed media referred to the person now going by the name Chelsea Elizabeth Manning as a 'transgender woman,' formerly
known as Bradley Manning. In an act of unbelievable stupidity, the government, under President Barack Obama, did not
challenge Mr Manning's filing legally to change his name to Chelsea, though at least the government didn't attempt the idiocy
of transferring him to a women's prison. President Obama commuted the remainder of Mr Manning's prison sentence just
before he left office. Even in those stories of the past, the credentialed media chose to use the feminine pronouns to
refer to Mr Manning, something with which I disagreed, and something which this site does not do. But in the
[Washington] Post's current article, Mr Manning's 'transgenderism' is never mentioned, nor that he was known as
Bradley Manning when he committed his crimes.
Cuba
cancels annual 'Conga Against Homophobia' parade. Cuban gay rights activists denounced the government's
decision to cancel this year's parade against homophobia, accusing it of snatching away their main platform at a key moment
as the Caribbean nation is set to debate legalizing same-sex marriage. The state-run National Center for Sex Education
(CENESEX), which has spearheaded advances in lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights in recent years, announced
on Monday it would not hold its 12th annual conga.
Denver
high school shooters are revealed to be a young GIRL who 'was male by appearance' and an 18-year-old boy. Devon
Erickson, 18, and a juvenile female — who authorities previously identified as a boy — were taken into custody following the
shooting at STEM School Highlands Ranch in Denver on Tuesday afternoon [5/7/2019]. Erickson was charged as an adult on
Wednesday with first-degree murder and attempted murder ahead of an initial court appearance in the afternoon. His
accused accomplice is being charged separately as a juvenile. [...] The underage student is reportedly in the process of
transitioning from female to male but Sheriff Tony Spurlock would not confirm if the young suspect was transgender.
Suspect
In Denver School Shooting Is Transgender, Possibly Motivated By Revenge. We are learning a bit more about the
motive of yesterday's school shooting at Highlands Ranch, a STEM school in Denver. It's being reported that one of the
suspects is transgender and that the shooting may have been motivated by revenge and anger toward specific students.
Maya
McKinney, second Colorado shooting suspect, identifies as [a] male named Alec. The second suspect in the
Colorado school shooting, Maya McKinney, was listed in court records as a 16-year-old female, but identifies as a male and
prefers to be called Alec. McKinney was shackled at the wrists and ankles Wednesday [5/8/2019] when he appeared in court
and responded to the judge's questions in a clear but quiet voice, saying, "Yes, your honor," and, "No, your honor." His
mother sat at his side. The teen's lawyers asked that the pronoun "he" be used for their client.
The Editor says...
If it's a girl, the correct pronoun is she, no matter what the lawyers say. If the lawyers say 2+2=3, that doesn't mean they're right.
The Brainwashing
of a Nation. Exploiting sexuality, triggering guilt and shame in children, to transform their identity was
usually the work of the lowest savage tribes and the vilest cults. It's now the American education system. The
techniques aren't new. They're as evil and old as time itself. Like every cult, the modern campus claims to serve
an educational purpose, helping students find meaning and purpose, but insisting that they must first be cured of the
subconscious evils such as white privilege and toxic masculinity that are holding them back through a process that
deconstructs their barriers, encourages confession, expressions of trauma, shame and guilt, to create new identities.
This isn't education. It's not even dogmatic lecturing. It's the same basic set of techniques used by any major
cult in the country.
No,
Christianity Doesn't Need To Endorse Homosexuality To Grow. Research done jointly at Harvard and Indiana
universities makes this clear, reporting that the number of adults attending liberalizing mainline churches has tanked
precipitously from 35 percent of the American population in 1972 to 12 percent in 2016. This decline of the mainline
churches began in the early 1960s when they started to question and officially change their positions on historic Christian
basics like the deity of Christ, the existence of miracles, the reality of sin, and the atoning death of Jesus and His
resurrection, as well as jettisoning biblical convictions about sex, gender, and abortion. People started running for
the doors of these churches with every new compromise, and this exodus continues en masse today. It could hardly be
worse if these pastors asked their parishioners to leave and never come back. The Harvard/Indiana University
research also shows that the churches that take the Bible as the reliable word of God are doing very well. Compromising
on biblical truths was, and is, a devastating church-growth strategy.
Protesters
Oppose Children's Story Hour at Bay View Community Center. Members of the American Society for the Defense of
Tradition, Family and Property (TFP) gathered to express their opposition to a Drag Queen Story Hour held at Bay View
Community Center (BVCC) this afternoon. The story hour was presented by the Drag Queen Story Hour MKE. The group's
Facebook post about the event announced, "Everyone is welcome to come dressed up as Star Wars characters. Please join
us for an all ages, family event that will include stories and songs that promote service-learning, diversity, education, and
creativity." Named because a drag queen reads stories to children, the events were designed to promote imagination,
diversity, education, and creativity.

Dumps Top Black, Female Conservative For Believing Men Can't Be Women. As odd as everyone surely feels about
those we've found ourselves agreeing with, we all seem to have found a lot of common ground on challenging a movement that's
mandating parents go along with the chemical sterilization, or surgical sex organ modification, of all children who discover
gender identity on Tumblr, or in a PFLAG group, or after a friend at school goes trans. Many people find it curious
that such drastic interventions are being proposed for a vaguely defined psychological condition with an ever-expanding list
of barely related symptoms.

Franklin
Graham Schools Mayor Pete on Homosexuality. Graham responded on Facebook to Buttigieg's claim that God doesn't
favor one political party or another. "Presidential candidate and South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg is right —
God doesn't have a political party. But God does have commandments, laws, and standards He gives us to live by.
God is God. He doesn't change. His Word is the same yesterday, today, and forever," Graham wrote. "Mayor
Buttigieg says he is a gay Christian and he wants to unite people behind him. I'm sure there will be many people who
will want to follow. But as a Christian I believe what the Bible says. God's Word defines homosexuality as sin,
something to be repentant of, not something to be flaunted, praised, or politicized. The Bible defines marriage as
between a man and a woman — not two men, not two women.
Ignorance,
Fear, and LGBTQ. LGBTQ activists' domination of our culture has come a long way from the days when they claimed
they only wanted tolerance. Today, they demand that we bend a knee in total submission and approval of their lifestyle
in education, entertainment media, and even Christian churches. LGBTQ activists are aggressively seeking to ban the
Bible, declaring it bigoted hate speech. LGBTQ activists seek to make it illegal to counsel those who wish to
transition from LGBTQ lifestyles. Leftists are thrilled about Corpus Christi, which is a blasphemous movie in
which Jesus and his disciples are portrayed as homosexuals. And yet, leftists are demanding that public schools forbid
students from drawing pictures of Mohammad because Sharia law says to do so is blasphemy.
The
So-Called Equality Act: Making Some Americans More Equal than Others. Every totalitarian system has used
the tactic of coercing people to affirm the regime's agenda, even when they disagree. Forcing people to mouth
politically correct dogmas that they know are false is designed to break their spirit and their resistance. Aleksandr
Solzhenitsyn said the worst aspect of Communist totalitarianism was not the economic poverty or the lack of political rights;
it was being forced to repeat the regime's lies: "The simple step of a courageous individual is not to take part in the
lie." Just a few years ago, few imagined that the greatest threat to liberty would come via the sexual revolution.
Its promise of liberation for some has turned into repression for everyone else. Homosexual and transgender people are
not a "vulnerable and marginalized population," as their propaganda puts it; they are now the favored few.
BYU valedictorian
comes out as proud 'gay son of God' in graduation speech. A Brigham Young University student quoted the Book of

Transgender
Athletes Dominate at Connecticut Girls' Track State Meet. According to FairPlayForWomen.com, a nonpartisan
grassroots campaign based in the UK dedicated to fighting for the sex-base rights of women and girls, there are a number of
skeletal and muscular differences between men and women. Women are, on average, 9 percent shorter than men, and have
shorter and weaker bones. Women also have shorter arms and legs relative to body size — one can easily see
where longer legs might benefit males in track sports. As for muscles, women "are around 30-35% muscle by weight, while
men are 40-50% muscle." Women's ligaments are also thinner and softer than men's. The impact these biological
differences have when it comes to competitive sports is undeniable — and there are victims whose concerns are not
being heard.
Maine legislators push to
remove 'he' and 'him' from state's laws and replaced with gender-neutral terms. A bill working its way up
through Maine's state legislature Friday [4/26/2019] is calling for words like "he" and "him" to be scrubbed out of the
wording of its laws — and instead be replaced with more gender-neutral terms. Rep. Matt Moonen, a
Democrat, says he wrote the bill after reading through laws and finding references to mostly male figures in positions of
authority. "The law still refers to the Governor as he, him (or) his, and I kept looking and was increasingly baffled,
as I found more places where that is the case," he said, according to News Center Maine.
Kamala
Harris calls for third gender option on federal IDs. Presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris says she
supports putting a third gender option on federal identification cards. The Democrat from California backed the idea
when asked about it during a town hall Tuesday in the first-in-the-nation presidential primary state of New Hampshire.
"It's a simple point. There needs to be another category. And I'm open to the idea of doing that. And I
think that it's a good idea," Harris told Fox News and New Hampshire's Concord Monitor during an interview later in the day.
Living in
Leftlandia. [Scroll down] They live in La-la Land, in Leftlandia, saturated in fantasies filled with pots of
gold at the ends of LGBT rainbows. They never touch down. [...] They believe they can pretend to be a gender other than
what they were born with and that if they can browbeat the rest of us into playing their game, that it will be true. They
even believe they can make up new genders no one's ever heard of before. They might as well imagine
themselves to be unicorns as far as reality is concerned, but they're not concerned with reality.
Boy
Scouts naming 200 leaders accused of sex abuse in New York, New Jersey. The names of close to 200 Boy Scout
leaders in New York and New Jersey accused of sexually abusing kids will be released Tuesday [4/23/2019]. The leaders
worked in both states and were named in the Boy Scouts of America's "perversion files," according to a pair of law firms
representing victims. At afternoon press conferences in Midtown and Newark, lawyers from the firms of Greg Gianforcaro
and Jeff Anderson & Associates plan to release "shocking testimony" and demand that the Boy Scouts of America release the
identities, background information and files on all BSA perpetrators in New Jersey who have been accused of sexual misconduct
with minors.
Report:
Nearly 8K Boy Scout Leaders Accused Of Sexual Assault Since 1944. The Boy Scouts of America is continuing to
grapple with sexual assault allegations within its organization. Nearly 8,000 people have been named in the so-called
"Perversion Files," which is a massive list of names kept by the organization since the 1940's documenting the number of
volunteers kicked out of the Scouts due to sexual assault claims. While the existence of the "Perversion Files" was
made public in 2012, neither the number of people accused of assault nor their names has never been disclosed to the
public — that is until now.
The Editor says...
Obviously, since the Boy Scouts was an organization exclusively for boys, until very recently, all of the perverts
were homosexuals. Not all homosexuals are pedophiles, but all homosexuals are perverts.
Charlize
Theron: My 3 Year-Old Boy Said She's a Girl, 'So, There You Go!' Actress Charlize Theron has been
raising her biologically-male son as a girl even since the child told her he wasn't a boy when he was three years old.
That's all it took for Theron to start raising her son Jackson, now seven, as a girl, the actress told The Daily Mail.
The Editor says...
Any parent who lets a three-year-old tell her what to do is an idiot. Where's her husband?
Or is he irrelevant?
Leftists
Now Using Extortion As A Tool In Their Continuing Hostile Takeover Of The United Methodist Church. It appears
that the leftists are now using financial extortion as a tool in their continuing hostile takeover of the United Methodist
Church. While all the media oxygen was (understandably) being used up by the Mueller Report release and the Muslim
massacre of almost 300 Christians at Easter services in Sri Lanka, this article by NBC went largely unnoticed.
CDC:
One in Seven Transgender Women Have HIV. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a "Dear
Colleague" letter Wednesday with warnings about the high prevalence and risk of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) among
transgender individuals.
Charlize
Theron's Bizarre Child Abuse: She Claims Her Adopted Son Came Out as Transsexual at 3. I am not joking or
exaggerating one bit when I say that this should be considered child abuse and this kid should be taken away from Charlize
Theron. What she is doing to this kid is monstrous and a sane society would immediately recognize that it makes her
unfit to be a mother.
Mayor Pete
and the Crackup of Christianity. "Mayor Pete" is proudly gay and living happily with his husband. He says
God made him the way he is, and he is living the life God intended for him. [...] [W]hat Buttigieg is saying is that either
God changes his moral law to conform to the changing behavior of mankind or that, for 2,000 years, Christian preaching and
practice toward homosexuals has been bigoted, injurious and morally indefensible. If Pete is right, since the time of
Christ, Christians have ostracized and persecuted gays simply for being and behaving as God intended. And if that is
true, what is the defense of Christianity?
Pete
Buttigieg Is Wrong about Homosexuality. Mayor Pete Buttigieg, the media, and academia are all fouled up about
what perversion is! Since the mayor is an admitted homosexual, with a "husband," no less, he obviously feels he must
justify his choice of walking in the dark world of perversion. And make no mistake: homosexuality is perversion.
If not, then all religions and denominations down through the ages have been wrong. A serious person will not try to
overturn civilization's morals, manners, and mores of thousands of years without much thoughtful consideration. Evidently,
Pete cannot be trusted to make decisions since he chose a degrading, dangerous, even deadly lifestyle.
Northern
Kentucky BBQ business getting heat for 'LGBTQ' shirts. A northern Kentucky barbecue food truck is getting a lot
of heat after advertising its T-shirts on social media. The of Belle's Smoking BBQ took a play on the acronym LGBTQ and
changed it to Liberty, Guns, Bible, Trump, and BBQ. Some are calling the message insensitive and hateful. Belle's
Smoking BBQ is based in Williamstown, but the owner Jamie Smith has been traveling all over the state bringing his food to
crowds for three years. Now his merchandise is overshadowing his smoked meats.

United
Methodists edge toward breakup over LGBT policies. There's at least one area of agreement among conservative,
centrist and liberal leaders in the United Methodist Church: America's largest mainline Protestant denomination is on a

Camille Paglia vs the trans-Taliban.
Camille Paglia has joined the ever-growing list of women in the metaphorical stocks being pelted with accusations of
transphobia. A number of blue-fringed students at her university are demanding she be fired for her statements criticizing
some women who bring charges of sexual assault, and because of her comments about transgender people. 'I am highly
skeptical about the current transgender wave, which I think has been produced by far more complicated psychological and
sociological factors than current gender discourse allows', she said in 2017.
Gay
Teacher Steals $100,000 From Church, Murders Boyfriend, Dies in Crash. Roy McClendon-Thompson was a social
studies teacher at McNair High School in DeKalb County, Georgia. Last month, he was arrested for embezzling more than
$100,000 from Tabernacle Baptist Church in Atlanta. However, after his arrest, he was allowed to resume teaching until
April 8, when he called in to say he wouldn't be coming to work that day. It turned out that McClendon-Thompson, 42,
had discovered that his boyfriend James Curtis Jones was cheating on him, so he drove to the boyfriend's apartment in
Dunwoody, where he shot Jones to death. McClendon-Thompson then got in his car and drove south until he rammed head-on
into a truck, and was killed.
Mayor
Pete and the Crackup of Christianity. "Mayor Pete" is proudly gay and living happily with his husband. He
says God made him the way he is, and he is living the life God intended for him. Raising the same-sex marriage issue
himself, the mayor defiantly taunted Mike Pence: [...] Yet, Mayor Pete's assertion — that God made him gay, and
God intended that he live his life this way, and that this life is moral and good — is another milestone on the
road to a new America. For what Buttigieg is saying is that either God changes his moral law to conform to the changing
behavior of mankind or that, for 2,000 years, Christian preaching and practice toward homosexuals has been bigoted, injurious
and morally indefensible.
Is
Transsexualism a Disassociative Personality Disorder? Through the 1970s a handful of prestigious American
medical institutions offered medical and surgical sex-change procedures to patients diagnosed with transsexualism. [...]
These transsexual treatment programs in general hospitals have all closed down. Transsexual medicine traveled the same
path as abortion services. It started out being provided in general hospitals in the 1970s, but as society sobered up
from the dreadful trip called "choice," both abortion and transsexual treatment were shut out of hospitals. This is
because both kinds of treatments amount to inflicting sickness and systemic failure upon healthy bodies, and both without
scientific knowledge of the long-term effects of such "healthcare."
Doctors
Are Now Giving 8-Year-Old Girls Testosterone, Claiming They're 'Transgender'. According to medical doctors and
a parent of a gender non-conforming child speaking on a panel for the Heritage Foundation, their quest to stop dangerous
transgender treatments on minors has exposed that "government-funded research now allows wrong sex hormones such as
testosterone to be given to girls as young as 8," reported The Christian Post on Tuesday [4/2/2019].
Houston
Public Library Has Another Sex Offender Read to Kids. The grotesque phenomenon of libraries inviting drag
queens to read to children has spread across the country. It should have surprised no one that a conspicuously sexually
deranged individual recruited by the Houston Public Library for this purpose — namely, Albert Garza (aka Tatiana
Mala Nina) — turned out to be a registered sex offender who had been convicted of aggravated sexual assault on an
8-year-old.
Science:
Teen Vogue Declares There Is No Such Thing As Biological Sex Because Reasons. Teen Vogue has a long history of
promoting transgenderism in harmful and objectively false ways. That includes celebrating the child abuse of a
9-year-old boy whose parents allow him to believe he's a girl named Lactatia. Ever the trailblazer, Teen Vogue put out
a video proclaiming that there is no such thing as biological sex because nothing matters anymore.
Democrats
Display Transgender Flags Outside of Capitol Hill Offices. The freshman class in the House have brought "firsts" to
Capitol Hill, including a change of rules to allow Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) to wear a hijab on the House floor and
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez introducing the controversial Green New Deal resolution that has put socialism in the
spotlight. When Jennifer Wexton (D-VA) was sworn in in January, she was the first to hang a transgender flag outside of
her office in the Longworth Office Building.
Drag
Queen Story Time organizers in Houston call it quits amid 'death threats and national scorn'. Organizers of a
Houston Public Library program where drag queens could read stories to children are calling it quits after a drag queen who
participated in the program turned out to be a registered child sex offender, sparking widespread outrage. Trent Lira
and Devin Will, the founders of Drag Queen Story Time, said they and their "kings and queens" who participated in the program
have been the target of harassment and death threats since they first launched at the Freed-Montrose Library in September 2017.
Trans
teen says school won't permit a run for prom king — even though teen 'identifies' as male:. A
Georgia high school refuses to let a transgender student who was born as a female run for prom king. Dex Frier, who was
born female, identifies as male, and told BuzzFeed News that the school is forcing him to run for queen, if he wants to run
at all, as Frier is not legally a male.
Parents
Refuse To Facilitate 'Sex Change' Of Autistic Son, So Authorities Threaten To Put Him In Foster Care. Parents
of a teenage son who has Asperger's and autism were threatened by authorities to have their child placed in foster care after
they refused to help facilitate a so-called "sex change" of the boy. Recalling the horrifying ordeal to The Daily Mail,
the couple, who wished to remain anonymous, claimed an NHS clinic in the U.K. said their then-14-year-old boy should be put
on hormone-blockers since he told them he thought he was a girl. The parents, believing their child's autism played a
role in the declaration of gender confusion, refused to cooperate with the "transition," particularly since the blockers can
cause irrevocable harm.
Liberal
Australian Greens want to wipe out religious programs, replace them with LGBT agenda. The Australian Greens
party has hardened its stance on the LGBT agenda in view of the 2019 federal elections to the Senate on May 18 and the House
of Representatives on November 2. The long list of "LGBTIQ+" policies the Greens want to implement includes a commitment
to end an existing program funding the presence of religious chaplains in public schools and to use the money in favor of "secular"
and "inclusive" support for "diverse" students. Other anti-religious initiatives are included on the list, in particular "the
removal of religious exemptions from anti-discrimination laws." Religious and private schools are especially targeted.
Drag
queen storytime reader once charged with child sex assault. Houston Public Library is apologizing after a man

in the program.
Pelosi:
'We Take Great Pride in Serving With a Record-Breaking Ten LGBTQ Members in the Congress'. House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi said at a press conference on Wednesday [3/13/2019] — introducing H.R. 5, which prohibits discrimination on

take great pride in serving with a record-breaking ten LGBTQ Members in the Congress," Pelosi said. "We are happy about that."
I
Was America's First 'Nonbinary' Person. It Was All a Sham. Four years ago, I wrote about my decision to
live as a woman in The New York Times, writing that I had wanted to live "authentically as the woman that I have always
been," and had "effectively traded my white male privilege to become one of America's most hated minorities." Three years
ago, I decided that I was neither male nor female, but nonbinary — and made headlines after an Oregon judge agreed
to let me identify as a third sex, not male or female. Now, I want to live again as the man that I am. I'm one of
the lucky ones. Despite participating in medical transgenderism for six years, my body is still intact. Most
people who desist from transgender identities after gender changes can't say the same.
LGBT
hero who became first legal nonbinary person renounces 'sham' transgender life, becomes man again. In 2016,
Jamie Shupe, a biological male, made international headlines after an Oregon judge granted him legal status as a "nonbinary"
person, legally shedding gender designations that he felt oppressed his true identity as a woman. He had become the
first American granted this legal status. Just three years later, Shupe has renounced his former life, which he now
characterizes as a "sham." [...] "Overnight, I went from being a liberal media darling to a conservative pariah," Shupe
said. "The truth is that my sex change to nonbinary was a medical and scientific fraud."
Transgender
Madness. Has anyone rationally analyzed the direction we are heading along the gender fluid turnpike? If
we don't set some guidelines soon, we'll be cruising headlong into a nasty multi-car pile up. It might already be too
late. To wit, Josh Rogin's October 2018 article in the Washington Post "Giselle Donnelly can Finally be Herself" came
and went with barely a whimper in the conservative world, even though it recounts the transition of AEI's national security
expert Thomas Donnelly to transwoman Giselle Donnelly. Formerly a married man who fathered two children, this
conservative scholar led a clandestine life as a woman-wannabee. After his divorce and five years of gender probing,
Donnelly found his peace sharing "national security, wine, gender fluidity, and BDSM" with his new wife, Elizabeth Taylor, a
former naval nuclear instructor turned trans beauty consultant. A few years ago this would have been fodder for a skit
on SNL. Today, it's serious stuff.
Court
Rules Father Cannot Halt Daughter's Transgender Hormones, or Even Call Her a Girl. Last Wednesday [2/27/2019],
the Supreme Court of British Columbia (B.C.) ruled that a 14-year-old girl may undergo transgender hormone "treatments" to
support her transgender identity as a boy — without her father's consent. The court went so far as to
threaten to penalize the father's speech. If he calls his daughter a girl, that would constitute "family violence,"
which would be punishable by law. The B.C. Supreme Court ruled that the girl (referred to as A.B.) "is exclusively
entitled to consent to medical treatment for gender dysphoria and to take any necessary legal proceedings in relation to such
medical treatment," and that "attempting to persuade A.B. to abandon treatment for gender dysphoria; addressing A.B. by his
birth name; referring to A.B. as a girl or with female pronouns whether to him directly or to third parties; shall be
considered to be family violence under s. 38 of the Family Law Act."
Transgender
Madness. While we all go about our daily lives, transgender advocacy organizations have pushed changes in
the military, sports, our schools, even the pageantry world. As a society, we haven't been accorded the opportunity
to have an honest, comprehensive national conversation about transgender issues and whether individuals should be free to
transition absent scientific proof. Debate has been carefully stifled by the proponents of all things transgender,
issues are not presented as questions but foregone conclusions, and any credible opposition is "transphobia" and "hate"
punishable by public humiliation — people lose their jobs, credibility, memberships in organizations; they're excommunicated
from social media, harassed, labelled, and doxxed if they dare question the trans-orthodoxy of the Democrat-Media Complex
and LGBTQ Mafia. Ironically, there is no deference to science on these issues unless radical academics can contort
the science to fit the cause.
Pigs on Two
Legs Turn on Each Other. [Martina] Navratilova had the temerity to suggest that one's sex is biologically
determined. In other words, transgenderism, even with the imprimatur of the social and biological sciences, cannot
trump our innate genetic codes. A frustrated Navratilova was editorializing mostly in the context of men
"transitioning" to women, while in many cases still enjoying innate muscular and size advantages over females in same-sex
sporting events. As a result, she is being demonized unfairly as an intersectional traitor ("transphobic") and thus
increasingly disinvited from a number of events by what is known as the LGBTQ community. In other words, her
intersectional femaleness and gayness are revoked by improper ideology.
From
Roy Rogers to Infanticide. America has moved on. Democrats, Hollywood, and fake news media say America no
longer wants white guys like Roy Rogers on TV, infecting our kids with Christian morals and family values. America has
moved on from the biblical teaching that there are only two genders. NYC recognizes 31 different genders.
Facebook gives customers 56 gender options. Leftists believe they are far more sophisticated and intelligent than Bible
believers and Americans living in flyover country. Leftists say determining a baby's gender by its genitalia at birth
is idiotic. They say we must allow the child to evolve into the gender it wants to be. This insane child abuse
has led to hundreds of kids as young as four years old identifying as transgender and changing their sex.
If
You're A Biological Man Competing In A Women's Sport, You're A Cheater. It's one thing to have someone shout
that they are female when they're really male. If they just kept it to that, then that's not something I particularly
care about. You do you, just don't force everyone else to pretend along with you and we're good. However, it's
another to not only force everyone else to agree with you but then applaud you as you put women down. That's exactly
what's going on in the sports community, as headline after headline comes out detailing victories by transgendered "women" in
women's sports as highlighted by my colleague Elizabeth Vaughn on Tuesday [2/26/2019]. These are only being celebrated
today as triumphs because the current trend says people not only should cheer it on, but they have to. Any talk to the
contrary evokes the wrath of the mob, and God have mercy on your soul if you become their target.
United
Methodists keep bans on LGBTQ clergy, gay weddings; denomination split feared. The United Methodist Church is
in danger of breaking up after a small majority of its 2019 conference attendees voted to keep LGBTQ bans in place. At
its general conference in St. Louis Monday, the 800 clergy members held a preliminary vote to accept the Traditional
Church plan by 56 percent, which would continue to keep LGBTQ bans against clergy and same-sex weddings. While the
final vote on the plan will happen late Tuesday, continuing with the Traditional plan is worried to cause a schism within the
church and lead to supporters of LGBTQ inclusion to split.
Based
On 'Discrimination' Law, Iowa Jury Awards Trans Woman $120,000, Access To Male Prison Facilities. A jury in
Iowa has concluded that the state discriminated against a former Iowa Department of Corrections nurse because the employer
wouldn't let her use the bathrooms with male employees. The jury also said the Iowa Department of Corrections denied
Jesse Vreogh health care coverage for "medically necessary surgery" — i.e. a double mastectomy to look more like a
man. The jury awarded Vreogh $120,000 for the "emotional distress" of both instances based on Iowa's sexual orientation
and gender identity law, which was introduced in 2007 and signed by Democrat Gov. Chet Culver.
Trump-Hating
Lesbian Tennis Champ Destroyed for Saying Men and Women Are Different. Navratilova defected from communist
Czechoslovakia in 1975 and became a U.S. citizen in 1981. That same year, when there was still a price to be paid for doing
so, she came out as a lesbian and has since engaged in a long career of LGBT activism. She lent her name and support to
ballot initiatives, spoke at LGBT marches, and in 2000 was the recipient of the National Equality Award from the Human Rights
Campaign, the nation's largest LGBT lobbying group. She is active on Twitter and firmly in the Orange Man Bad
camp. No one could ever accuse Martina of not being down for the cause. All this was not enough to protect
Navratilova from ostracization and accusations of bigotry last week when she questioned the wisdom of allowing men pretending
to be women to compete in women's sports.
Martina
Navratiola Removed From Board of LGBTQ Organization. Tennis legend Martina Navratilova was officially removed
Wednesday from the advisory board of a prominent LBGTQ organization after making comments about transgender athletes.
Navratilova released an op-ed in The Sunday Times on Feb. 17 discussing her opinion on why transgender athletes should not be able
to compete against female athletes. She wrote that having men compete as women is unfair because of the physical advantage.
The King of Pop — and Perversion.
How can an icon be a con? It was easier to ignore a landscape designed as a spider web for child sexual abuse than to
give up the soundtrack of our lives, the catchy songs that coursed through memories of weddings, bar mitzvahs and other good
times. "With Michael Jackson, you can see how grotesquely his fame, and our worship of fame, distorts and excuses and
enables evil — to the point mothers fail to protect their children and literally throw them in harm's way," says
Maureen Orth, who did groundbreaking stories in the '90s for Vanity Fair about both Jackson and Allen. Indeed, the most
harrowing part of the new documentary about the shredded lives of two of Jackson's victims is the complicity of their
mothers. Jackson spent as much time grooming the mothers as the sons, to the point where the women saw nothing wrong in
letting their children share a bed with a grown man.
You were never a woman, you were a transvestite and a fool.
Hormones,
surgery, regret: I was a transgender woman for 8 years: time I can't get back. I started my transgender
journey as a 4-year-old boy when my grandmother repeatedly, over several years, cross-dressed me in a full-length purple
dress she made especially for me and told me how pretty I was as a girl. This planted the seed of gender confusion and
led to my transitioning at age 42 to transgender female. I lived as "Laura" for eight years, but, as I now know,
transitioning doesn't fix the underlying ailments. Studies show that most people who want to live as the opposite sex
have other psychological issues, such as depression or anxiety. In my case, I was diagnosed at age 40 with gender
dysphoria and at age 50 with psychological issues due to childhood trauma. Eventually, my parents found out, and my
unsupervised visits to Grandma's house ended. I thought my secret was safe, but my teenage uncle heard about it and
felt I was fair game for taunting and sexual abuse. I wasn't even 10 years old. If not for the purple dress,
I believe I would not have been abused by my uncle.
The
Homosexual Mafia Strikes Again. New York City Councilman Ruben Diaz Sr. is in major trouble. In fact, he
may be expelled from the NYC Council. What exactly did Councilman Diaz do? Did he assault someone, commit larceny

crimes: "The City Council is controlled by the homosexual community."
80
percent of priests in the Vatican are gay: new book. A large majority of priests in the Vatican are gay,
although many are not sexually active, a new book claims. A total of about 80 percent of the most revered clerics in
the Roman Catholic Church are homosexual despite the church's opposition to gay rights, according to the extensively researched
book by French journalist Frédéric Martel. The gay priests adhere to an unspoken code called "the closet,"
where it is understood that, for instance, a cardinal or bishop who denounces homosexuality is more likely to be gay, according
to the book "In the Closet of the Vatican."
Transgender
Man Awarded $120,000 in Discrimination Case at Iowa Prison. In 2015, Jesse Vroegh, a registered nurse working
in an Iowa prison, asked his employers at the state Department of Corrections to allow him to use the men's restrooms and
locker rooms at work because he was transitioning from female to male. But the department denied his requests, citing
its concerns about the "rights of the male officers" and saying that transgender issues were "too controversial," according
to a lawsuit.
A Transgender Hero Breaks
Ranks. Even though it's still young, the transgender movement has occasioned many bizarre and horrific
stories. But even in that company, the saga of Jamie Shupe stands out. Born in 1963, Shupe has been married to
his wife, Sandy, for three decades; they have a daughter. He spent eighteen years (1982-2000) in the U.S. Army.
In 2013 he began identifying as a transgender woman, claiming that he had struggled for years with a deep sense of being
different and had been harassed in the military because he was perceived as gay. After declaring that he was a woman,
he "lived for a year in Pittsburgh, got hormone treatments and a name change," but never had a sex-change operation.
Finding Pittsburgh inhospitable for a trans woman, he relocated to Portland, Oregon, where he continued living as a woman for
another two years. In 2015, the New York Times profiled Shupe as part of a splashy, upbeat series celebrating
"transgender lives."
West
Va. GOP legislator: 'LGBTQ is a modern day version of the Ku Klux Klan'. Eric Porterfield, a Republican
in the West Virginia House of Delegates, compared members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community to
the Ku Klux Klan on Friday amid facing threats and calls to resign over other recent bigoted remarks. "The LGBTQ is a
modern day version of the Ku Klux Klan, without wearing hoods with their antics of hate," Mr. Porterfield said in an
interview Friday morning [2/8/2019], Charleston's Gazette-Mail reported. Mr. Porterfield also called the gay
community a "terrorist group" and claimed that he is being "persecuted" in retaliation for comments he made during a House
Government Organization Committee meeting two days earlier, the newspaper reported.
Bronx
lawmaker: City Council is 'controlled by the homosexual community'. A Bronx city council member said he
was treated as an outsider by the chamber because it's "controlled by the homosexual community," according to a new

out of 51 council members — over there, everybody is controlled by the homosexual community," Rubén
Díaz Sr. said in an interview with a spanish-language TV program geared toward cab drivers, NY1 reported. City
Council Speaker Corey Johnson, who is gay, called on Diaz to apologize after the NY1 report.

Homo
RICO: The Feds Need to Bust Big Gay. Gay men Ed Buck and Terry Bean donated huge sums to Democrats and played
leading roles in LGBT activism. Now they find themselves under scrutiny for misconduct with younger men. David
Daniels and Scott Walters befriended Ruth Bader Ginsburg and inspired her to defend gay rights eloquently. Recently
they have been accused of raping a young man in 2010. To add to the trend of famous gay Democrats in trouble, now Bryan
Singer came under harsh scrutiny in the Atlantic over allegations of abuse. Together these men paint a horrifying
picture. But they are far from the worst one finds in the gay community. Ed Buck's case deals with two black men,
both younger, who died in his California home during some sort of drug-induced sex play. Terry Bean's case points to
troubling congress with younger men, possibly including a minor.
Why
many Americans are praying for Trump. Mainstream media seek to convince us that a majority of Americans embrace
their anti-Christian anything-goes-sexually agenda. The truth is, millions of Americans are disturbed by our nation's
cultural and moral decline. A growing number of TV commercials selling everything from milk to phone services interject
homosexuality. I told my wife, "Next they will have men kissing." Thirty minutes later, a Diet Coke TV commercial
featured two men kissing in a cab. With every new TV drama and sitcom, the question is, in which episode will the show
promote homosexuality? LGBTQ are only 3% of the population. Why is there such an intense, relentless push to
shove homosexuality into our faces?
A growing record of insanity. It's hard to keep up
with the tsunami of cultural and economic insanity thundering through a thousand outlets every day, but here's a try. [...]
Democrats are deploying the LGBTQ legal agenda to criminalize conservative religious views, using transgenderism as the
spearpoint. After enacting their radical, full-term abortion bill, New York legislators passed a law three days later
enshrining the LGBTQ activist agenda and another bill criminalizing counseling for young people with unwanted same-sex
desires. Gov. Andrew Cuomo, New York Democrat, signed both with fanfare. The Empire State joins 14 other
Democrat-dominated states with similar laws whose view of sexuality is like the Eagles' song, "Hotel California." You can get
into homosexuality and transgender behavior anytime you like, but you can never leave — they will see to that.

Michael
Jackson, Child Molester. It has been apparent since the mid 1990s that Michael Jackson was a child
molester. A great entertainer, yes, but almost certainly a serial abuser of little boys. That his attorneys
managed to cast doubt on witnesses in a notorious 2005 criminal trial doesn't inspire much confidence. As was the case
with Bill Cosby, the pattern of grotesque allegations has become impossible to ignore.
'Leaving
Neverland' and Sundance's Glaring Michael Jackson Child Abuse Hypocrisy. The buzziest film at Sundance 2019 is
'Leaving Neverland,' a doc on the child-rape allegations against Michael Jackson. But a few years ago, the fest sang a
very different tune.
The Editor says...
Warning: The article above is replete with lurid details of the revolting allegations against the late Michael Jackson.
The article above (beyond the excerpt shown) is not "family friendly" by any means.
Pastor
Fired for Telling the Truth. Justin Hoke, pastor, is now the ex-pastor of Trinity Bible Presbyterian Church in
the aptly-named town of Weed, California, after the whole congregation threatened to quit the church, because of the pastor's
adherence to the teaching of the Bible. [...] The pastor was sacked for putting up a sign in front of the church. The
sign read: "Bruce Jenner is still a man." Indisputably true: just check any one of Jenner's millions of
chromosomes. Check 'em all: all male. "Homosexuality is still a sin." Again, true. "The culture
may change. The Bible does not." This is controversial? They fired their pastor for this? Well, they fired
him after some "LBGT activists," a euphemism for "anti-Christian bullies," vandalized the sign. The elders of the church
then told the pastor that either he had to go or the congregation would quit the church. And yet they call themselves a
"Bible church."
Gay is the
New Black: The Buttigieg Candidacy. We need to talk about Pete Buttigieg and why his candidacy for
president in the age of identity politics is negatively disruptive — though this certainly doesn't mean he
shouldn't run. He's the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, and the first openly gay candidate to run for president.
It's not a comfortable discussion. I'll be called a homophobe for having it. But it's necessary, so let's dive
right in. The politics of the Democratic Party is driven by an ideology that pits one group against another.
Blacks against whites. Gays against straights. Women against men. Political agendas and views are often put
in that frame. We saw the consequences of this during Barack Obama's reign as the first black president. If you
criticized him, you were called a racist. Almost all statements and judgments regarding his policies and performance
were filtered through the lens of identity politics.
First
Openly Gay 'Married' Man Announces 2020 Democratic Presidential Exploratory Cmte. Pete Buttigieg, the
37-year-old mayor of South Bend, Ind., who is openly gay and "married" to another man, announced on Jan. 23 that he has
launched a presidential exploratory committee to determine whether he will run for the 2020 Democratic presidential
nomination. Buttigieg, pronounced "boot-a-judge," is an Afghan war veteran (Naval intelligence officer), a
magna cum laude graduate of Harvard and a Rhodes Scholar. He was first elected mayor of South Bend
in 2011 and was reelected in 2015.
The
Truth about Transgenderism. A month ago I posted about Leanne Mills, a transgender woman who has been telling
her story to the media, in order to discourage young people from transitioning. Considering that the media narrative
has portrayed transgenderism in glowing terms, it is valuable for at least one person to expose the truth. Now, Mills
has written an open letter to young trans people and has kindly send it along to me. Some of it is gruesome; some of it
is grotesque. Some parts of the letter appeared on the BBC. Mills informs me that certain parts were censored.
Britain's
'First Transgender Family' Now Transitioning Their 5-Year-Old Son To Female. A family dubbed Britain's "first
transgender family" has announced that they are encouraging the gender transition of their five-year-old son, Jayden.
According to the family, Jayden, a biological male, likes dresses and hates "everything about being a boy." The little
boy's "step-dad," Greg Rogers, is a 27-year-old biological female who now identifies as a male. The child's mother is a
21-year-old woman named Jody. Both Jodi and Greg are furious that concerned citizens (referred to as "trolls" by many
U.K.-based outlets) have reported them to social services for apparent child abuse. The couple, however, maintain
Jayden — who is on track to medically "transition" in a few years — is properly cared for.
Pelosi's
Equality Act Could Lead to More Parents Losing Custody of Kids Who Want 'Gender Transition'. Americans have
long understood that children are best cared for by their parents. The state can only intervene in the family when
there is demonstrable evidence of abuse and neglect. This has long been established in our laws. But now,
transgender ideology is silencing doctors and challenging the way courts define parental abuse and neglect. Last year
in Ohio, a judge removed a biological girl from her parents' custody after they declined to help her "transition" to male
with testosterone supplements. The Cincinnati Children's gender clinic recommended these treatments for gender
dysphoria (the condition of being distressed with one's biological sex).
Free
Speech Is Dead in Canada: The Persecution of Christian Activist Bill Whatcott. In the past year, I
witnessed two frightening assaults on free speech by a kangaroo "justice" system. This wasn't in some banana republic,
North Korea, or China; it was in Canada. These were gut-wrenching experiences for me. These stories from Canada
are potent warnings to the U.S. If Congress and more states pass anti-discrimination "equality" laws giving special
protection to LGBTQ identities, "hate speech" prosecutions and compelled speech will surely follow. There can be no
doubt of that, given the LGBT-driven lawsuits we have already seen against florists, bakers, and wedding photographers.
The
Transgender Medical Complex. The current mania over transgender children is neither liberal nor progressive.
It is radical and extremist. Sadly, it has been embraced as the latest cause by progressive parents, who apparently are
being punished for their radical views by having to watch their children be sacrificed to the gods of political correctness.
In truth, and by all available evidence, many of the children who now have been brainwashed into thinking they are transgender,
are really homosexual. But, it's more fashionable to be transgender than to be homosexual — for reasons that
escape me — and thus, more and more children are being induced to transition, to allow medical professionals to mutilate
their bodies. The fact that the medical profession is completely on board with these horrors tells us how far our culture
has been destroyed, and how little it respects human life or biological reality. I have always thought that the current
national discussion about transgenderism was designed to produce more and more transgendered people.
So
many awkward moments! Don Lemon blurts out 'This is the gayest New Year's show on air'. With an unidentified
drink in hand, one CNN anchor enjoying the network's wild and crazy annual New Year's Eve festivities late Monday evening [12/31/2018]
made an astonishing remark. Speaking with his fellow anchors — including Andy Cohen, Anderson Cooper and Brooke
Baldwin — Don Lemon called the network's 2018 to 2019 festivities the "gayest New Years show on air." [...] He wasn't
technically wrong. He, Cohen and Cooper are all openly gay men.
Democrat
hangs trans pride flag outside Capitol office. A House Democrat said she's received an outpouring of support
since she hung a transgender pride flag outside her Capitol office. Virginia Rep. Jennifer Wexton, who was elected
in November, hung the pink, blue, and white flag in the Longworth House Office Building next to an American flag and the
Virginia state flag. Lawmakers traditionally display the American and state flags, but can choose whatever flags they
want. Wexton's chief of staff, Abby Carter, confirmed to NBC News that Wexton displayed the flag as a statement about
trans inclusion.
A
bad case of anosognosia down at GameStop. Of all the forms of induced anosognosia being pounded into the
American mind by ubiquitous and interminable LGBTQ phantom reality propaganda, the most flagrantly delusional is the demand
that grown men be allowed to forget they are men and be treated as if they were women. On New Year's Eve, as millions
of American families gathered to share their fondest hopes for 2019, they were treated to extra merriment watching a
hilarious clip on Breitbart and many other sites (though not Drudge, of course) of a loudmouthed man with a bad case of
anosognosia shopping at a GameStop store in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The clip shows a tall dude with well defined
muscles and a fairly deep voice, looming over a diminutive, apologetic store clerk, whom he is cursing and threatening
because the clerk had addressed him as "sir." As our family gathered around my daughter's kitchen table [...], we all
convulsed with laughter at the ludicrousness of this distinctly masculine human specimen demanding to be recognized as a woman.
You are mentally
ill, "ma'am". A clerk at a Game Stop store called a man "sir" and the man went off on a tirade demanding to be
called "ma'am." Sorry, Aerosmith. Dude doesn't look like a lady. I am no expert on the subject but that rage
looks like mental illness. He is dressed as a man but demanding to be recognized as a woman because he is insane.
No one is brave enough to call him out, and I do not blame them because why risk assault or loss of a job simply to set the
record straight on a minor matter?
Transgender
Woman [sic] Lashes Out at Clerk After Being Called 'Sir'. A biological male living as a transgender female
shopping at a GameStop in Albuquerque, New Mexico, lashed out at a male store clerk after he called the customer "sir,"
according to a video of the incident. The dispute began after the store clerk called the shopper "sir" while in the
middle of ringing up an item. The transgender customer, however, berated the clerk for using the wrong pronoun
while the male clerk apologized profusely.
Stand
by for a wave of male prison inmates claiming to be transgender females. Two federal judges now have ruled,
setting the precedent of transferring a male prison inmate to a female prison because he claims to feel that he is a woman
and poses as one, and, in the current instance, has undergone surgical mutilation of his reproductive organs. The
"transgender female" is referred to as a "woman" and "she" in the following report from the Associated Press: ["]A
transgender woman serving a 10-year sentence in Illinois for burglary has been moved from a men's to a women's prison in what
could be a first for the state, her lawyers announced today.["] The transfer was forced by a federal judge whom
the AP does not wish to identify. (Why?) That judge evidently accepts the politically correct line that, contrary
to settled science, sex is not determined by chromosomes.
Transgender
wrestler wins second straight Texas girls' high school title. For the second year in a row, a transgender
wrestler has won the Texas girls' Class 6A 110-pound division.
As for
Me and My House... New York City has legalized a "third gender" on birth certificates. Not that long
ago, over 40 states passed resolutions supporting God's definition of marriage — between one man and one
woman. According to the Public Religious Research Institute, a majority of Democrats, Republicans, blacks, whites,
Latinos, Catholics, and white mainline Protestant denominations support so-called "marriage" between people of the same
sex. The majority of evangelical Millennials support redefining marriage. Years ago, LGBTQ activists claimed that
openly homosexual leaders admitted into the Boy Scouts had no intention to change the organization from its founding on
Christian principles. As it turned out, first on the LGBTQ agenda was to remove "morally straight" from the Scout
Oath. We are living in a pretty sick time when "morally straight" is deemed hateful and offensive.
Does
the Kevin Hart Oscar debacle point to bullying from the LGBT left? If there was any doubt about whether the
LGBT political establishment wields cultural power in the United States, it was put to rest last week with the Kevin Hart
Oscars-hosting debacle. [...] Hart is a run of the mill, everyman-type comic whose politics are difficult to decipher, while
[Amy] Schumer et al. are outspoken progressives whose politics are in line with those of the Hollywood establishment.
As long as you toe the progressive party line, you get the benefit of the doubt.
Christian
Mega-Star Singers: Tell the Truth on Homosexuality. As a man who has found the cure for a terrible
disease, followers of Christ should enthusiastically tell the truth with courage, conviction, and love. Along with
ministering to the sick, poor, hungry, and broken; along with building churches, schools, hospitals, and orphanages,
Christians also must confidently and strongly stand up to the lies of atheism, humanism, socialism, communism, Islam,
the LGBT agenda, and the like. In a world more devoted to its "isms" than to the God who made us, shining the light
on such lies is precisely why some Christians are frequently found so "offensive."
Virginia
teacher fired for refusing to use new pronouns for transgender student. "You will be made to care," wrote Eric
Erickson in RedState back in 2013. He was referring to a court case in Colorado of a Christian baker who refused to make a
wedding cake for a gay couple and was fined for it. Today, we are being threatened, intimidated, and bullied into caring
about people who believe they are trapped in the wrong body — that their biological gender is incorrect and that they
are actually someone of the opposite gender — or some other gender created out of whole cloth. A Virginia French
teacher found out the consequences of trying to balance his religious beliefs with the new paradigm of "transitioning" to
another gender.
The Editor says...
The people who say they believe in science (above all else) are willing to say that biology is sometimes incorrect.
Father
Fighting to Save Six-year-old Son From "Gender Reassignment". A Texas father is in danger of losing parental
rights to his six-year-old son because of his refusal to agree with his ex-wife that the boy is transgender. Anne
Georgulas, the mother of six-year-old James, is a Dallas-area pediatrician, and claims in a petition seeking to terminate the
parental rights of her estranged husband Jeffrey Younger that their son is a "transgender child and, by choice, now goes by
the name Luna and is only known by her classmates as a girl." The petition seeks to terminate Younger's parental rights
because James reportedly behaves in line with his male gender when he is with Younger. Additionally, Georgulas is
asking the court to compel Younger to pay for counseling during which a therapist affirms that James is a girl, and to foot
the bill for hormone treatments as part of James' biological "transition" to the female gender.
Mother
Forcing Transgenderism on 6-Year-Old Son May Suffer From a Mental Disorder, Pediatrician Says. In a
particularly tragic divorce proceeding, a mother who forces a transgender identity on her 6-year-old son James is accusing
the boy's father of child abuse because he refers to the boy as male. The father responded by offering James a choice
of boy's clothes and girl's clothes, and the boy constantly chooses the male options while away from his mother.
Dr. Michelle Cretella, executive director at the American College of Pediatricians, told PJ Media that the mother may be
suffering from a mental disorder. "This case is consistent with a diagnosis of Munchausen by proxy," she said.
The Stench From Cupich Church.
The winds of scandal whipping around the Church's gay pederasty problem are not dissipating but picking up speed. This
is foiling the devious plans of Pope Francis, who deliberately scheduled his "abuse summit" six months out in the hopes that
few would care about it by then. News of that quickie gathering of bishops scheduled for next February commanded little
respect from the laity before this week, but even less now that its primary American organizer has been announced —
Blase Cupich, who owes his elevation in large part, according to Archbishop Carlo Viganò, to the very molester, Theodore
McCarrick, whose scandal the summit will supposedly address. It was McCarrick who whispered in the pope's ear about
appointing the relatively obscure Cupich to the immensely important archdiocese of Chicago. Overnight this appointment
turned the nebbishy Cupich into the most powerful cardinal in America.
Mom
Dresses Six-Year-Old Son As Girl, Threatens Dad With Losing His Son For Disagreeing. Six-year-old James is
caught in a gender identity nightmare. Under his mom's care in Dallas, Texas, James obediently lives as a trans girl
named "Luna." But given the choice when he's with dad, he's all boy — his sex at birth. In their divorce
proceedings, the mother has charged the father with child abuse for not affirming James as transgender, has sought restraining
orders against him, and is seeking to terminate his parental rights. She is also seeking to require him to pay for the
child's visits to a transgender-affirming therapist and transgender medical alterations, which may include hormonal
sterilization starting at age eight.
Cardinal
Müller Warns of 'Mafia-Like' Homosexual Network Wreaking Havoc in the Church. Cardinal Gerhard
Müller, the former prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) from 2012-2017, declared in a recent
interview that the church needs to address the homosexual underpinnings of the clerical abuse crisis, saying that the
"homosexual conduct of clergymen can in no case be tolerated." Speaking candidly with Dr. Maike Hickson of
LifeSiteNews, the German prelate said leaders in the Catholic Church still underestimate what he called a "homosexual
network" wreaking havoc in the church. Müller expressed disgust for disgraced Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, who
resigned in July after an investigation found credible evidence that he was a "serial predator" of adults and minors when
he was a priest in New York.
Chicago
pastor asks person in 'drag' to leave church and 'put on man clothes': report. A Chicago pastor is under fire
for telling a person he said was dressed in "drag" during a Sunday night worship service to leave the church and "go put on
man clothes." A video posted to Facebook shows pastor Antonio Rocquemore of Power House International Ministries
addressing an unidentified person in the audience.
Kansas
Governor-Elect Wants to Block Law Protecting Religious Adoption Agencies. The governor-elect of Kansas, Laura
Kelly, said in a news conference on Thursday, Nov. 8 that she will try to block enforcement of a new law that protects
religious adoption agencies from being forced to place children in homes that violate their beliefs. The Adoption
Protection Act, which took effect in July, allows adoption agencies with "sincerely held" religious beliefs to refuse to
place children in LGBTQ homes. According to the Associated Press, Kelly, who has called the law the "adoption
discrimination" measure, "said she will have her staff review how far the state can go to avoid enforcing the law."
"If there is way to direct the agency to not implement that, then I will do that," said Kelly, a liberal Democrat.
Democrats:
'Cruel and Unscientific' to Define Legal Sex by Biology. It is "cruel and unscientific" to define a person's
legal sex by their biology, says a complaint signed by 98 Democratic House legislators. The Democrats' statement was
sent to President Donald Trump's administration as the New York Times has reported that the administration will formally
clarify that the sex of people involved in sex-discrimination legal fights will be based on their male or female body.
Transgender
Mania. A rush of transgender propaganda has flooded the media, not just in America, but in Canada and across
the pond, (where every leftist trend in the U.S. is instantly copied), determined to ram transgenders down society's
throat. We are supposed to admire them, we are supposed to emulate them, we are supposed to think like them. [...] And,
as is always the case with leftists, they have censored, persecuted, or ostracized those who do not conform to the official
ideology. Professionals have even been excluded from presenting their findings. Scientific research has been
shaped, if not mutilated, to fit the ideology. Any scientific research that contradicts the ideology is ignored.
1,600
"Scientists" Defy Science To Support Transgender Activism. This story came out earlier this week but it was
shocking enough that it bears a look. The transgender activist community was all abuzz on Thursday [11/1/2018] over a
letter that had actually been featured in the New York Times a week earlier. Buzzfeed picked it up and ran with it,
adding to the celebratory mood. The document in question was an open letter published by a gaggle of 1,600 scientists
who are rejecting the anticipated HHS memo defining sex and gender in traditional, scientifically accepted terms for purposes
of Title IX questions.
Are You Being
Defined Out Of Existence? Recently, The New York Times claimed that transgender people could be "defined
out of existence" by the Trump administration, due to a government return to the classical definition of biologically-based
gender. Strangely enough, no leftist made any fuss, however, when the Obama administration defined biological gender
out of existence in federal Title IX law, an act which violated the identity of 99.9% of the population. Why is
something that is allegedly awful and inhumane to do to a tiny fraction of people suddenly acceptable when it is done to
almost everyone?
Whose fault is this?
Dallas
jailers ordered transgender woman to show her genitals, lawsuit says. A transgender woman has filed a federal
lawsuit against Dallas County alleging jailers ordered her to show her genitalia to them so they could determine her
sex. Valerie Jackson, 32, had been arrested in November 2016 after she left a gun in her purse when she went through
security at Dallas Love Field, but a grand jury declined to indict her on the weapons charge. Her lawsuit, filed Friday
[11/2/2018], alleges that she was harassed and humiliated at the jail and that her constitutional rights were violated.
Transgenderism
is a political figment, not biological truth. Transgenderism, under this current White House, may be on its
last legs due to President Donald Trump's reported decision to shutter the previous administration's policy of regarding boys
as girls and girls as boys and pretending as if God-assigned sexes are as changeable as clothing and shoes. It's about
time we get back to the truth on this issue. According to a New York Times report, the Department of Health and Human
Services and the Department of Justice are looking at ways to legally define, for Title IX civil rights law purposes,
gender as male or female — nothing else.
Man
"Identifying" As Woman Wins Women's World Cycling Championship. Having covered the topic of transgender
athletes extensively here, this is a story I've been expecting to cross our path for quite a while now. At the 2018 UCI
Masters Track Cycling World Championships in Los Angeles this weekend, the winner of the women's 35-39 age bracket was
Canadian competitor Rachel McKinnon. McKinnon is a male who identifies as a female.
The Editor says...
If a heavyweight boxer "identified" as a middleweight, and then beat his opponent to a pulp, would that be unfair? Yes,
because there are pragmatic ways (involving a calibrated scale) to determine (before the contest begins) who's a heavyweight
and who's not. Similarly, there are ways to determine if one has XX chromosomes or XY chromosomes; and indeed, there are
no others.
Trump
Administration Eyes Defining Transgender Out of Existence. The Trump administration is considering narrowly
defining gender as a biological, immutable condition determined by genitalia at birth, the most drastic move yet in a
governmentwide effort to roll back recognition and protections of transgender people under federal civil rights law. A
series of decisions by the Obama administration loosened the legal concept of gender in federal programs, including in
education and health care, recognizing gender largely as an individual's choice and not determined by the sex assigned at
birth. The policy prompted fights over bathrooms, dormitories, single-sex programs and other arenas where gender was
once seen as a simple concept. Conservatives, especially evangelical Christians, were incensed. Now the
Department of Health and Human Services is spearheading an effort to establish a legal definition of sex under Title IX,
the federal civil rights law that bans gender discrimination in education programs that receive government financial assistance,
according to a memo obtained by The New York Times.
Trump
admin considering narrowing legal definition of 'gender,' and there are only two. Meltdown begins. In
what some describe as a sensible return to common-sense policies, the Trump administration has reportedly proposed redefining
gender/sex as an immutable condition that cannot be altered by whim. In a memo obtained by The New York Times, the
Department of Health and Human Services argues that federal agencies should adopt a definition of gender that's based "on a
biological basis that is clear, grounded in science, objective and administrable." Though biological science makes it
clear that only two distinct genders exist, the administration of former President Barack Hussein Obama muddied the
definition of gender for political purposes.
Another Nod to Sin.
It appears that the Youth Sin-Nod 2018 has turned out to be another Nod to Sin. A pope wearing a rainbow cross?
It's no wonder that the LGBT community is doing somersaults. The cross is actually the logo of Latin American Youth
Ministry (which is infested with gay activity) but it is derived from the LGBT gay-pride rainbow; a variant of it.
Regardless of how Francis means this, it conveys the signal that he supports this lifestyle. Unless he can clarify
what he means by this (which of course he'll never do), people everywhere will see this as an endorsement of LGBT
rights. After all, he has a gay-bureaucracy running his Vatican and even told a gay man in May 2018 that "God made you
that way," not to mention that the Vatican in spring 2017 was home to a cocaine-fueled gay orgy that had to be busted by
Vatican police, so what are we to infer?
Pope
accuser strikes back, blames "scourge of homosexuality" for abuse. The Vatican ambassador who accused Pope
Francis of rehabilitating a disgraced ex-American cardinal is doubling down on his claims, asserting that the "scourge of
homosexuality" in the priesthood is responsible for sex abuse and that the Vatican is being hypocritical in refusing to
acknowledge it. Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano issued a third instalment Friday in the war of words over the cover-up of
ex-Cardinal Theodore McCarrick. Vigano was responding to a Vatican cardinal who had rebuked him and accused him of
mounting a "blasphemous" political hit job against Francis with his claims.
New
Swiss law expanding definition of 'phobias'. Switzerland may soon punish anyone who openly opposes the
homosexual and transgender lifestyles. Peter LaBarbera of Americans for Truth About Homosexuality (AFTAH) tells
OneNewsNow that by a wide margin the National Council of Switzerland has approved a measure that would criminalize so-called
homophobia and transphobia. Violators could face a fine or a maximum three years behind bars. "The leftist
homosexual and transgender activist movement continues to expand the definition of these so-called phobias, and so criticism
becomes hate, becomes a contribution to violence," LaBarbera laments. "Invariably, these hate speech codes end up
curtailing people's right to disagree." So if it becomes law, Switzerland will equate homosexuality and transgenderism
with racism to protect certain groups of people while silencing and jailing others, Christians included.
25 Reasons I'm Not a Democrat. [#9]
There are two genders and you can't change the one you are born with no matter how many surgeries, hormones, and weird pronouns that you apply
to yourself. Also, those genders should use different bathrooms and shouldn't be competing against each other in athletic endeavors.
It's
time to end women's sports. It's time to end women's sports — especially since they're not just
"women's" sports anymore. A case in point is "Rachel" McKinnon, Ph.D., a man masquerading as a woman (MMW), or a
"transgender," as the enlighteners say, who just won a women's masters cycling event. As The Gateway Pundit's Jim Hoft
(almost) put it, he "whooped them little girls." McKinnon isn't alone, as many MMW have won women's sporting events
during the last decade. To name just a few, a 55-year-old MMW won a women's long-drive competition (golf) in 2008.
Last year, a 39-year-old MMW won a women's weightlifting event. Then there were the Connecticut's State Open track and
field championships in June; the top two finishers in the 100-meter dash were both MMW (okay, being boys, they were BMG),
with one of them setting the girls' state record in both the 100- and 200-meter runs. Hey, you go...uh...girl.
Biological
Male Wins World Championship In Women's Cycling. A biological male who identifies as a transgender woman won a

Angeles. McKinnon, representing Canada, bested Carolien Van Herrikhuyzen of the Netherlands and American cyclist
Jennifer Wagner to take home the gold.
Facebook,
Twitter, Google, Etc. are Subversive to American Government. What if I told you that Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google and
other big tech companies are subversive to American government; and what they are advocating is completely illegal in this country?
Facebook sells itself as an American online social networking service company. Apparently, it is only for those who are willing to
socialize in pushing the same illegal propaganda. For example, they advance homosexuality and sodomy (Jude 1:7). For
those who have not taken the time to peruse the United States Constitution and its enumerated laws you may want to do so, that is
if you would like to remain a free people (2 Corinthians 3:17). In every state in our Union, homosexuality and sodomy is a
felony. Yet, these big tech companies are banning and censoring people who are making reference to our constitutional laws
(Romans 3:20) in exposing the crimes of those who are guilty as charged. With the use of the revisionists, they now
call it "hate speech."

Pedophilia
Isn't The Main Problem With Catholic Priests, Homosexuality Is. With few exceptions, sexual abuse by priests
has been visited overwhelmingly upon pubescent boys, and young men, most often teenagers. This is pederasty, not
pedophilia. And pederasty is endemic to gay culture. [...] Homosexuality has been normalized, officially approved,
ratified, and okayed. Since the American Psychiatric Association removed homosexuality from the roster of mental
disorders in 1973, activists have parlayed homosexuals into a protected species, more like black rhinos or orangutans than
moral beings.
Maine
Gov. LePage Vetoes Gay Conversion Counseling Ban. Republican Gov. Paul LePage of Maine vetoed a
proposed gay conversion therapy ban on July 6, preventing Maine from becoming the 14th state where such counseling is
prohibited. The legislation sought to ban individuals under the age of 18 from receiving gay conversion counseling.
As a summary of the amended bill explains, the bill "provides that advertising, offering or administering conversion therapy to
individuals under 18 years of age in the State is an unfair trade practice." An exception was included allowing
members of the clergy to engage in conversion therapy.
UN
Unleashes LGBT Czar to Promote Homosexuality, Transgenderism. The United Nations "Human Rights Council," which
counts some of the world's most ruthless dictatorships as members, sparked global outrage last week by voting to appoint a UN
czar to oversee the normalization of homosexuality and transgenderism around the world. In the crosshairs are religious
and moral views that reject homosexual behavior as sinful, as well as objective reality and biological facts that until
recent years were taken for granted. The deeply controversial scheme was pushed through by communist and socialist
rulers with fervent support from the Obama administration, which for years has been lawlessly using American tax dollars and
diplomatic resources to bribe and bully foreign governments into compliance with the radical agenda. But there was a
great deal of opposition, and criticism of the UN extremism is growing. Officially, the UN LGBT (Lesbian, Gay,
Bisexual, Transgender) "expert" will work to combat "violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender
identity." In reality, though, forces on both sides of the issue know full well that the UN czar will serve as another
weapon in the global war against religion, traditional values, morality, and truth.

Sexual
Abuse Survivor Priest Who Burned Rainbow Flag Punished by Chicago Archdiocese. A Catholic priest at Resurrection Parish
in Chicago has angered Cardinal Cupich after he planned an event to burn an LGBTQ "pride" flag he found stashed away in his
rectory. A victim of sexual abuse himself, Father Paul John Kalchik announced his intention to burn the sacrilegious flag
in protest on the parish website. "On Saturday, Sept. 29, the Feast of Ss. Michael, Gabriel and Raphael, we will
burn, in front of church, the rainbow flag that was unfortunately hanging in our sanctuary during the ceremonial first Mass as
Resurrection parish," he wrote. The flag wasn't just hung in the church but placed in front of the hand-carved crucifix
from Germany on the altar.
Cardinal removes
priest who burned LGBT flag at Avondale church. A Northwest Side priest has been removed about a week after he
burned a rainbow flag outside his church. Protesters had been demanding Cardnial Blase Cupich take action against the
Rev. Paul Kalchik after he ignored the cardinal's warning and burned a rainbow flag with a cross on it on Sept. 14.
Kalchik had been at Resurrection Church since 2007. Before he took over at Resurrection, the flag hung inside the church.

'Gender-fluid'
Credit Suisse boss who sometimes wears a wig and dress to work is named among top 100 WOMEN in business. A
transgender Loose Women star has lashed out at a male bank director who occasionally dresses as a woman for accepting a place
on a list of the Top 100 Women in Business. India Willoughby, who was the first woman in the world to front an all-female
talk show, has lashed out at Philip Bunce — who works at Credit Suisse. She said: 'As a transsexual woman
with a recognised medical condition, who fights for credibility every day, who fights myths every day, who's undergone lengthy
surgery, whose life was unbearable in the wrong body, I find this story an insult.
Transgender
shooter, who complained of feeling 'alienated' and 'wanting to pick a fight',. Snochia Moseley, 26, was at
breaking point when she killed three people and herself in a shooting at a Rite Aid warehouse on Thursday [9/20/2018], friends
say. Moseley opened fire at her workplace at 9.06 am, after arriving at the distribution facility in Enterprise Business
Park. She shot outside the building, before continuing her rampage inside. Friend Toni Coley, who has known the
woman since high school, told the Baltimore Sun Moseley often felt alienated, but she 'wasn't a monster, wasn't an angry
person'. 'I just believe this was emotional distress. If she did this, it was her last straw,' she said.
What
we know about Snochia Moseley, alleged shooter at Rite Aid warehouse. Authorities in Harford County were still trying
to determine late Thursday [9/20/2018] why Snochia Moseley opened fire at the Rite Aid warehouse where she had taken a temporary
job, killing three employees and fatally wounding herself. Authorities have not identified the victims. Troi Coley, a
friend of Moseley's since high school who had stayed in frequent contact with her in Facebook Messenger, said Moseley sometimes
felt as if the world was against her but was not an angry person in spite of her alienation.
Doctors
Performing Mastectomies On Teen "Transgender" Girls. This story never seems to end. There are,
apparently, doctors accepting cases of underage female children who "identify" as males and performing double mastectomies on
them to avoid the trauma of developing breasts.
Study:
More Than Half of Trans Male Teens Attempt Suicide. A new study from the American Academy of Pediatrics shows
an alarmingly high rate of suicide attempts among transgender teens, particularly trans boys. Nearly 14 percent of all
adolescents in the study, "Transgender Adolescent Suicide Behavior," based on data from "Profiles of Student Life: Attitudes
and Behaviors" survey from the Search Institute, reported they had attempted suicide. But 51 percent of transgender males
reported at least one attempt, the highest percentage of any gender identity group. The second highest was among nonbinary
teens, nearly 42 percent. Among transgender females, about 30 percent reported a suicide attempt. The rate
was 28 percent for questioning teens, nearly 18 percent for [normal] females, and 10 percent for [normal] males.
Christians
Who Oppose Conversion Therapy Need a Reality Check. To be loving does not mean to be gullible. Jesus
Christ mentions that we will come across dishonest people, especially among those who have prestige (or are seeking it).
We should love people, but that does not mean we should let them take advantage of us. Or fool us. Or trick us.
In that spirit, I want Rosaria Butterfield, Sam Allberry, and Jackie Hill Perry to answer a simple yes-or-no question.
No long filibustering paragraphs. No detours into extensive complaints about what other Christians are supposedly
doing. No lifeline block-quotes from Augustine. Just yes or no.
Yale
Survey Of Its Freshman Finds More Who Identify As LGBTQ Than Conservative. According to a Yale Daily News
survey of freshmen students, more students of the class of 2022 identify as members of the LGBTQ group than identify as
conservatives, Protestants or Catholics. According to the survey, a paltry 9% of the freshmen surveyed identified as
"somewhat conservative" with a miniscule 1% identifying as "very conservative." Meanwhile, almost 5% of the students surveyed
identified as gay, over 9% identified as bisexual or transsexual, and 8% identified as "asexual, ace spectrum or questioning
their sexual orientation." As The College Fix noted, the total of students identifying as LGBTQ or asexual outnumbered
the 16% of students identifying as Protestants and the 15% identifying as Catholics.
Media
and the Rise of Homosexuality. India has just legalized gay sex. This is roughly one-sixth of the world's
population. A few years ago, this would have been unthinkable. [...] Yet, within a generation, homosexuality became
accepted, and today it is celebrated, almost as desirable and heroic. This would have been unthinkable, even in the
1960s. I have also noticed older people, whom I have known for decades, change their attitudes. In the 1960s,
they would have been one of those Americans who saw homosexuality as disgusting. Now, they are "tolerant." The
brainwashing seems to have worked retroactively.
Transgender
woman accused of sexually assaulting inmates. A transgender woman serving time at an all-female UK prison
sexually assaulted four inmates at the facility, according to new reports. Convicted sex offender Karen White, 52, who
was born a man and identifies as a woman, confessed this week to two counts of sexual touching at New Hall Prison, in
Wakefield, The Sun reported. She denied the two other counts, according to the report.
Is
the Queer Reckoning upon Us? Over the last ten years, the LGBT movement created a brotherhood out of its
victims. I have gotten to know countless people who lost their jobs, families, public reputation, homes, or incomes
because they chose to defend God's design for sexuality rather than submit to the LGBT movement's demands. [...] Each victim
of the LGBT lobby has a unique story. In a current project, I have had extensive interviews with some. One, a
doctor, faced the ultimate choice when gays in his hospital filed charges against him for warning patients about the dangers
of anal sodomy. He lost all his medical appointments rather than betray the calling God gave him as a physician.

Explosive
Ivy League Study Repressed For Finding Transgender Kids May Be A Social Contagion. "Rapid-onset gender
dysphoria" among teens and young adults may be a social contagion linked with having friends who identify as LGBT, an
identity politics peer culture, and an increase in internet use, finds a study out this month from a Brown University
professor. The study was quickly yanked from Brown's news releases after a transgender activist feeding frenzy, and the
journal it was published in is reconsidering the publication. There is a parent and researcher-driven petition to stand
behind the publication of the first study to look in detail at rapid-onset gender dysphoria.
Ten Inconvenient Facts.
[#4] The LGBT population is tiny. This is an inconvenient fact in that liberals wish to remove any implication of
abnormality from non-heterosexual individuals. But the Centers for Disease Control count the LGBT group less than four
percent. If we subtract bisexuals from the cohort (liberals rarely highlight them), the rate falls under three
percent. When 24 out of 25 people act in one way, we can't help judging them normal and the other one abnormal.
LGBTQ
community embraces first bisexual Senate nominee. The LGBTQ community is heralding the election of the first
bisexual Senate nominee, Democratic Arizona Rep. Kyrsten Sinema, who will face off with Rep. Martha McSally in the
fall election. "Arizona voters shattered a lavender ceiling in selecting Kyrsten Sinema as the Democratic nominee for
U.S. Senate," said the LGBTQ Victory Fund. The Washington Blade, the newspaper voice of the LGBTQ community, said after
her election Tuesday that Sinema "achieved a significant victory on Tuesday in the Arizona primary when she became the first
openly bisexual person to win a major party nomination to run for a U.S. Senate seat."
Why
is the Lafayette library having Drag Queen Story Time? The reaction has been mixed after the Lafayette Public
Library announced plans for its first Drag Queen Story Time. Members of the Delta Lambda Phi social fraternity will
lead the event, scheduled for 2 p.m. Oct. 6 at the library's main branch. Library Director Teresa Elberson
said the fraternity approached the library about the program. After a lengthy discussion, library officials decided to move
forward. The event is expected to include fraternity members dressed in drag who will read to children and participate in
activities with them and their families.

Transgender
candidate for governor wins Vermont primary. A former energy company executive from Vermont has come a step
closer to becoming the nation's first transgender governor. Christine Hallquist swept to victory in Tuesday's crowded
gubernatorial primary, besting three other Democrats — including a 14-year-old boy — to become the
party's nominee. She is the first trans person to win a major party's nomination for governor. "Tonight we made
history, and I'm so honored to be ... part of this historical moment," Hallquist said to a room full of clapping fans at her
election-night party in Burlington. "I'm so proud to be the face of the Democrats tonight."
Gender
Confusion: A Tool of the Left. The Democratic Party has gone off the deep end in many more ways than just
pushing socialism. One sign is the fanatical embrace of identity politics, which has become the hallmark of the Party
of Obama (POO). Look at Vermont. There, the Democrats' primary race for governor was won by Christine Hallquist.
What is unusual is that Hallquist calls himself a "transgender woman." To put it more accurately and without any politically
correct gloss, Hallquist is a male pretending to be a woman. His pretending isn't all that convincing, as evidenced by this
YouTube clip from Time magazine.

Mamas,
Don't Let Your Theybies Grow Up To Be Cowqueers. In the tiny sheltered pampered enclaves of coastal American
cities, some parents are refusing to reveal their children's biological sex to anyone — including relatives and
the infants themselves — until the toddler is old enough to decide for himself or herself. Instead of
babies, they are calling their genderless spawn "theybies." Even stranger is the fact that they will act as if YOU'RE
the weird one if you have a problem with that.

Ax Attacker Uses Drugs, Demon Possession, to Defend Himself in Court. An Australian man who identifies as a
transgender woman defended himself in court on Thursday [7/19/2018], claiming that he was either possessed by a demon or his
mind was addled by drugs and therefore it was his body, not him, who attacked people at a 7-Eleven with an ax last year.
High
risk of 'losing control' of AIDS epidemic: experts. The AIDS epidemic risks resurging and spiralling out of
control unless billions of extra dollars are pumped into prevention and treatment, experts warned Sunday on the eve of a
major world conference. An alarming rate of new infections, coupled with an exploding population of young people in
hard-hit countries, meant the world could be steering for "a crisis of epic proportions," said Mark Dybul, an American AIDS
researcher and diplomat.
Fragmentation
and the Family. Since groups organize merely by yelling the loudest or creating the most guilt, they multiply.
It won't be long before we'll have, in addition to gay pride parades, adulterers' pride parades, and then the shoplifters and the
prostitutes will demand their due respect [...] Now even pedophiles are claiming what they think is their due. There's
nowhere to stop, no group too objectionable to support or too specialized to gain a hearing. [...] To further snarl things, many
people find themselves in multiple special interest groups. A person, we'll call her "Jane," can easily be black, gay, and
female all at once. What sociology professors call "intersectionality" happens, and poof! like rabbits, the number of
special interest groups increases exponentially.
LGBTQ
Totalitarianism in Boston: The Destruction of the St. Patrick's Day Parade. South Boston has
fallen. LGBTQ radicals have just seized complete control of the St. Patrick's Day Parade, with the director of a
front group, OUTVETS, put in charge of the event. The shocking evolution of the parade from a celebration of Irish
Catholic heritage to an overtly LGBTQ event should be a warning to those who advocate "inclusion" within their institutions.
The infusion of LGBTQ sexuality will inevitably upend tried and true traditions and moral standards. We see this happening
most clearly in our schools and churches.
7
Reasons Why the Transgender Revolution Will Fail. [#3] The transgender revolution is unhealthy. Trans
advocates tell us that failure to diagnose and treat gender dysphoria will result in depression, suicide, or other forms of
self-harm. And I'm sure that, in some cases, post-hormone and post-surgery, many individuals are more satisfied with
their quality of life. Others would point to the high percentage of suicides after surgery, along with the
substantial number of people who experience sex-change regret. But there's more to be concerned about. A recent
headline on a gay website announced, "Hormone therapy linked to dangerous health issues in trans women." Yes, "Researchers
set out to examine heart and circulatory health in transgender people, and found that transgender women face a greater chance
of strokes, heart attacks, and blood clots compared to their non-transgender counterparts."
Child
Molesters Are Now Demanding To Be Included In The LGBT Community. First it was gays and lesbians. Then it
added bisexuals. Then it added transgender. Then it added a host of other letters and numbers including but not
at all limited to Q (queer), 2 (two-spirit), I (intersex), A (asexual) and P (pansexual).
Now another group is asking for inclusion into the LGBT alphabet soup, and that is pedophiles.
The Editor says...
The problem with identifying and addressing people as parasexual, retrosexual, sesqui-sexual, polysexual, etc. is that
such people wretched freaks are defined by their sexual preferences and activities rather
than any accomplishments or credentials — or psychoses.
UK
Doctor Sacked For Blasphemy. In the UK, the National Health Service has thrown out a doctor: ["]A
doctor has been 'sacked' as a medical assessor for a government department after refusing to renounce his Christian belief
that gender is determined at birth, the Sunday Telegraph can reveal. [...] The 55-year-old father of four believes sex is
genetic and biological, so established at birth.["] Wait a minute. Holding the view that people are born
male or female is now a theological belief? Do you see how radical this is? Here's the theology angle:
this doctor was fired because he blasphemed against the militant new religion.
San
Francisco Has Received Over 20,000 Feces Complaints in Last 7 Days. It's no wonder. This is a city that
celebrates sodomy, ie. [Explanation of sodomy omitted for brevity, among other things]. Don't tell me sodomites engaging
in sodomy is a "victimless crime." These people celebrate the most perverted and unlawful acts ever imagined and yet,
they want everyone to not just accept them but be like them. Is this really what you want your city to be in the name
of tolerance, America? God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah over this and has brought His judgment over other cultures that
have glorified the same. It's time the city of San Francisco was either brought to justice by man or face the wrath of
God here and now.
UCLA
professor dies in 'mummification' ritual at Hollywood executive's home. A California university professor died
during a bondage session at the home of a Hollywood executive that went horribly wrong. Doran George, 48, was found
dead inside the home of Skip Chasey, an executive for Hollywood's William Morris Endeavor agency and known in the BDSM
community as "Master Skip," on Nov. 19, 2017. [...] "The decedent's partner observed that the decedent was not reacting
properly," the report states. "The partner checked the decedent closer and realized that the decedent was not breathing.
The partner called 911 and began cutting off the plastic and tape."
Opposing
the Transgender Movement. How do those of us still grounded in reality fight this insanity? Not with
misguided "compassion" or compromise, but with straight talk and tough love. Let's not waste our time analyzing or
answering absurd gender theories with logical rebuttals. Those ideas don't deserve that respect. [...] Do not affirm a
person's self-identification as transgender (or genderqueer, non-binary, gender non-conforming, neutrois, agender,
two-spirit, etc.). Affirmation normalizes this mental disorder. True respect comes from recognizing a
trans-identified person's authentic, not costumed, humanity. Emphasize that people who identify as transgender need
psychological counseling to escape their delusion. Show true compassion by encouraging trans-identifying persons to
accept their natural bodies.
Bill
adding third gender choice for licenses, IDs nears passage. A bill directing the Registry of Motor Vehicles to
let people choose "X" for a gender instead of male or female passed the Senate nearly unanimously and could bring the change
to state-issued IDs as soon as November. The option — already available in Oregon, California, Maine and
Washington, D.C. — addresses concerns by people who don't identify as solely male or female and consider
themselves non-binary, meaning neither one nor the other gender.
World
Health Organization says playing video games is a mental health disorder, but believing you're the opposite gender is somehow
excellent mental health. The World Health Organization recently released the 11th edition of the International
Classification of Diseases (ICD) manual. Under the new guidelines, playing video games can constitute a mental
disorder — but having a transgender identity does not. The juxtaposition of these two new classifications
has left many a person scratching their head. The classification of gamers as "mentally ill" has been particularly
controversial. While the WHO used to consider "gender incongruence" as a "mental illness," the newest version of the
ICD puts transgender issues under the "sexual health conditions" camp. Not long ago, the American Psychiatric
Association pulled off a similar move, eliminating the term "gender identity disorder" from their manual. But some have
questioned if the reclassification and re-branding of gender identity disorders has less to do with "science" and more to do
with the left-wing's political agenda.
Criticizing
homosexuality is now a CRIME under Canada's totalitarian "hate" laws. In yet another stunning example of
tone-deaf hypocrisy, the Leftists running "tolerant" "free expression" Canada have proven once again that they are the Nazis
in training, not Right-leaning, liberty-minded citizens. Authoritarianism is all the rage among the Canadian Left if
you happen to run afoul of the "correct way of thinking." Just like in Europe and increasingly in the U.S., there are
"acceptable" ways of expression and "unacceptable" ways. Practice the latter and you're going to find yourself in a
jail cell.
If
Beauty Pageants are Bad, Why are Drag Kids Worshipped? Every time I hear about beauty pageants being sexist, or
child beauty pageants being inappropriate, I can't help but ponder the hypocrisy of the far left — who now seem to
be worshipping drag kids. How is it suddenly acceptable for young boys, even some under the age of 10, to be swept up
by an adult sub-culture that has strong connections to sex and drug use?

herself as a transgender man who, after taking testosterone to "transition," conceived a child with a man who was "transitioning"
into a transgender woman but stopped taking hormones long enough that they could conceive a son.
Comments
of Missouri's New Governor on LGBT Citizens Raise Eyebrows. Missouri Gov. Mike Parson — who
replaced former Gov. Eric Greitens June 1 — declined to apologize, but he did attempt to clarify his position
on LGBT rights this week. While serving as lieutenant governor, Parson told the Midwest Baptist publication Word & Way
last year that while he didn't believe Missourians who were gay or transgender should face job discrimination. "Do I
think that you should go out there and fire them for that? I don't," Parson said. But, because he is a
Christian — and this is what Missouri Democrats pounced on — Parson also said, "I'm old school.
I know how I believe. I know what's going to happen to these people."
Two
transgender teen sprinters come first and second in the girl's state championship. A Connecticut high school
sophomore dominated in last week's track and field competition — but the transgender teen's big win has some people outraged
and wondering if it's fair she [sic] was allowed to compete. Terry Miller, who was born a male but identifies as a
female, came in first place twice during the June 4 CIAC State Open track and field competition. During the 100-meter
dash, Miller smoked her [sic] competition finishing the race in just 11.72 seconds. She [sic] also killed it in the
200-meter dash finishing in 24.17 seconds.

during Pride Month in June. And officials in town are proving it with a permanent change to a busy township intersection.
Maplewood plans to unveil Thursday [6/7/2018] permanent rainbow striped crosswalks — joining just a few other towns in
the world that have done the same thing.
New
York City proposed legislation would allow 'X' gender category on birth certificates. New York City lawmakers
are expected to introduce legislation this week that would allow people who do not identify as male or female to change the
gender on their birth certificates to a third option: "X." City Council Speaker Corey Johnson will be introducing
the legislation Thursday that will be followed by public hearings on the matter later in June, the Associated Press reported.
If the legislation were to pass, New York City would join California, Oregon, and Washington state in having this third gender
category on birth certificates; D.C. allows "X" on driver's licenses.
Southern
Baptist denomination severs ties with DC Baptists over homosexuality. The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) cut
relational and financial ties with the D.C. Baptist Convention (DCBC) for refusing to disfellowship a church with two lesbian
pastors. The Executive Committee of the SBC issued a warning to the DCBC in February in which the D.C. convention was
given 90 days to remove any church in its fellowship that "practice affirming, approving or endorsing homosexual behavior,"
according to Baptist Press. The executive committee gave the warning specifically with regard to Calvary Baptist
Church, which affirmed a lesbian couple as co-pastors in 2017, according to Juicy Ecumenism. The D.C. Baptist
Convention failed to comply with the SBC's warning as of May 21 and has therefore been disfellowshipped.
Hawaii
governor signs law banning gay conversion therapy. Hawaii Gov. David Ige (D) signed a bill into law on
Friday banning gay conversion therapy for minors. "Sexual orientation is not an illness to be cured," Ige said to LGBT
youth during the bill signing. "We accept you and love you just the way you are." The law, passed by legislators
last month, prevents anyone from attempting to change a minor's sexual orientation or gender identity through conversion
therapy practices. "The overwhelming scientific research has shown that conversion therapy is not effective and has
frequently had lasting harmful psychological impact on minors," the governor said.
Leftists
[are] Slowly Turning Off the Faucet of Free Speech. [D]id you ever think a day would come when leftists would demand that we do not
state the truth that there are only two sexes? College student Lake Ingle was kicked out of class for saying biologists officially say there
are only two sexes. Leftists have decreed that there are 71 different "genders," including no-gender and gender-fluid. Anyone caught
publicly stating otherwise will suffer public humiliation and dire social, economic, and even physical consequences. And yet leftists are
praised as paragons of tolerance.
Man charged

What
Has Sexual Orientation Non-Discrimination Wrought? "Gay" bathhouses are infamously linked to the spread of AIDS
and other diseases, but about 70 continue to operate in many cities in the U.S. Now some upscale hotels are (at least
temporarily) turning into bathhouses. Where are the CDC and local health departments when we need them? BDSM-affirming
research admits that BDSM participants have a high rate of mental disorders (25% have attempted suicide; about 40% suffer from
anxiety and depression), twice the incidence of Hepatitis C, and ten times the incidence of HIV/AIDS of the general
population. In other words, major corporations are knowingly allowing their hotels to become public health hazards —
both for the event participants and the innocent guests who follow. These hotels will never be clean again. [...] Ever since
homosexuality was declassified as a mental disorder by the American Psychiatric Association (in 1973) — for political,
not scientific reasons — open depravity has been growing like a malignant tumor.
Pope Francis
tells gay man 'God made you like this and loves you like this'. Pope Francis has told a gay man that God loves
him during a private meeting, it has been claimed. In a private dialogue, the Pontiff is understood to have told Juan Carlos
Cruz, a victim of sexual abuse at the hands of Catholic priests, that God loves gay people and it is fine to be homosexual.
Pope's
reported comment to a gay man may indicate a new level of acceptance of homosexuality. Pope Francis has
reportedly told a gay man that "God made you that way and loves you as you are," apparently pushing the pontiff's acceptance
of homosexuality to a new level. Francis made the comments to Juan Carlos Cruz, a Chilean victim of priestly sexual
abuse who recently spent days with the pope at the Vatican to discuss his ordeal as the pontiff moves to tackle decades of
coverups and ostracism of victims in the Chilean church, according to the Spanish newspaper El Pais. Cruz was quoted
as having discussed his homosexuality with Francis. "He told me: 'Juan Carlos, I don't care about you being gay.
God made you that way and loves you as you are and I don't mind. The pope loves you as you are, you have to be happy with
who you are.'"
Lyft
driver kicks out gay couple mid-ride after back-seat kiss. A gay couple in Indianapolis, Indiana, said they
were kicked out of a ride-share vehicle earlier this month for kissing in the backseat. College students Ben Martella
and Alec Jansen were sharing a Lyft to a location a few miles off of Butler University's campus, but a mile into the ride, after
the couple shared a kiss, the Lyft driver ordered them to get out of the car at a red light, they told The Indianapolis Star.
Sodomites
Lose Their Temper And Cause A Fury Because 87-Year-Old Christian Politician Calls Them Sodomites. There are a
lot of "news stories" that really are not news, and this should be one of them. Should, because the LGBT has made it
into news that an 87-year-old politician and Christian called the sodomites what they are — sodomites.
California
Demands That Christians 'Evolve'. There's a new legislative proposal banning all conversion therapy as a fraudulent business practice — by
not just mental health providers but anyone. Since the "independent fact-checkers" are quick to swarm around conservative "misinformation," FactCheck.org,
PolitiFact and Snopes have all cried "False" at the idea that this bill is a threat to the sale of the Bible. They declared that a threat against Bible
sales is nowhere in the text of California Assembly Bill 2943, offered by gay assembly member Evan Low. That is correct ... on its face.
It doesn't mention the Bible. However, the bill would amend the state Consumer Legal Remedies Act, adding the ability to sue for damages for
"advertising, offering to engage in, or engaging in sexual orientation change efforts with an individual." Any efforts to change someone's
sexual orientation "in a transaction intended to result or that results in the sale or lease of goods or services to any consumer are unlawful."
That's more than therapy. It's any kind of an argument.
'National
Review' Column Calls for Surrender on Transgenderism. The devolution of the Never Trump publication National
Review took another move to the left with the publication of a column calling for conservatives to surrender on the issue of
transgenderism. Columnist J.J. McCullough is not only calling for conservatives to cave to a ruinous lie, he is
smearing conservatives as nasty bigots. "[I]t feels we're still in the immature, demagogic phase. In some quarters,
it remains fashionable to act theatrically repulsed by transgender people emphasize their weirdness, and make populist
appeals to the preposterousness of women asking to be called 'him' or surgeons amputating penises and so forth," he writes.
Anal
Cancer: the new 'gay' and female epidemic. There are consequences to behaviors. One of the consequences
of anal sex is anal cancer. Last September, The Conversation (which describes itself as "academic rigor, journalistic
flair) reported on an "anal cancer epidemic" among gay and bisexual men. According to the American Cancer Society,
although anal cancer is fairly rare — much less common than cancer of the colon or rectum — the number of
new anal cancer cases has been rising for many years. It is estimated there will be 8,580 new anal cancer cases in 2018.
Transgender
Supremacy: Understanding the Ideology of a Totalitarian Menace. Nobody actually believes in "equality,"
and the transgender cult's rhetoric is an implausible farrago of nonsense. "Transwomen are women" is one of their
oft-repeated slogans, which no honest and intelligent person could possibly believe. Hormone injections and surgery can
turn a man into a simulacrum of a woman, but this artificial creation is not actually the same thing as a woman, and
everybody knows this. In arguing for "equality" based on such fraud, what the transgender cult is actually doing is
asserting their own superiority. These deranged fanatics claim the authority to decide who is or is not a woman
and, if you deny that they have such authority, they will accuse you of "hate." This non-negotiable demand of transgender
ideologues — that everyone else must defer to their authority — is totalitarian, an imposition of
power, as dishonest as Hitler's claim to the Sudetenland. If we wish to be free — to defend our
liberty, including our right to speak the truth — we must reject the transgender lie of "equality."

Disneyland
and Infantile Culture. Disneyland appears to be more and more co-opted by untraditional, non-family values.
Gay Day (I'm not sure if it's called that) has been picking up momentum over the past few years, taking over the park and
giving Tinker Bell a run for her money. Eventually, I can only assume as Disneyland becomes more of a Dave & Buster's adult
theme park instead of something for children, then Tinker Bell will be a fat male stripper wearing a dog collar scooping up
fivers scattered along the cobblestone road. The culture has been so steeped in the corrosive, acidic LBGTQ agenda for years
now that the electrical anode posts no longer conduct further shock, even as the left adorably tries to connect the wires.

Hundreds of female Labour members are to quit the party over a decision to allow transgender candidates to be included on all-women

Leftist
Propaganda Thwarts Unity. The Americans who listen to the Washington Post, the New York Times, and all the networks

true nature of the gay lifestyle or the actual number of people who suffer from same-sex attraction. Clearly, if one in four
Americans is gay and the gay lifestyle is just like the heterosexual lifestyle, supporting a version of "marriage" that includes
same-sex couples is not that strange.
Friend
Of Obama And Founder Of Largest Gay Rights Org Charged As Pedophile. Terry Bean, 66, co-founder of the Human
Rights Campaign and the Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund, has been arrested on sodomy and sex abuse charges that allegedly
involved a 15-year-old Oregon boy. Also charged is Bean's former boyfriend, 25-year-old Kiah Lawson. The two are
said to have set up the meeting with the child through the gay dating app, Grindr. The incident happened in a Eugene,
OR hotel in September of 2013. Bean pleaded not guilty and posted bail. He will appear in court in December.
His lawyers say these allegations are a larger part of an extortion ring against the gay rights activist.
Affirmation isn't
helping. A University of Texas study published in the Journal of Adolescent Health suggests the remedy is to
coddle the youngsters and affirm their chosen gender identity to reduce the impact of their lifestyle on their mental health
as well as the suicide rate. But Dr. Michelle Cretella of the American College of Pediatricians suggests that is
backward thinking. "When you have a toddler or a teenager and they throw a tantrum, what happens when we give in to
them? They get happy, right? And happy does not always mean healthy or optimal for the child," she submits.
The researchers only examined 129 young transgenders ages 15-21 before reaching their conclusions, and Dr. Cretella says
examination of much, much larger studies of transgender adults who have undergone mutilation surgeries shows those adults are
likewise happier in the short-term. "It's like a honeymoon period," she compares. "But when you get ten years out
from surgery, all the mental health problems that they had before escalate."
The Perversion of America.
This shift from Bible-based language to scientific terminology as the common basis for describing sexual behavior was
advanced in the 20th century by Sigmund Freud and his psychoanalytic disciples. Those who had formerly been deemed
sinners in need of prayer were reclassified as patients in need of therapy, and psychiatric "experts" replaced
clergy as the guiding authorities in such matters. What had formerly been a crime called sodomy (a term derived
from Genesis 19) subject to legal punishment, became instead the symptom of a disease called homosexuality, subject to
psychiatric "treatment." Instead of being sentenced to jail for an illegal act, or seeking advice from a pastor, priest,
or rabbi on how to escape sinful temptation, the person diagnosed with homosexual tendencies was sent to the therapist's
office or, in some cases, committed to a mental institution. Words mean things, and this change of terminology about
sexual behavior was significant of a major cultural shift in 20th-century America.

The
Norming of the Perverted. Once a person's sexual proclivities were private to that person and those in their
life that shared them or those friends one decided to tell. Now one is required to declare their sexual tastes upon
showing up at a hospital. Somewhere there are teams of state-employed perverts who, every day, come to work in their
state-furnished offices, hold meetings, create [things] like this, make them "mandatory," and then just spray them
out [...]. It is said to be, by these sub-human and un-fireable office holders, because being sensitive to people
of all kinds is "who we are as a people." But it is not that. It may once have been that but no more.
Now, with the arrival of sheets like the one [pictured], we can see the program as it really is: The Norming of
the Perverted.
The
Trials and Tribulations of the Transgenders. Transgenderism has been made into a cause celebre by the
cultural elite. Many, myself included, view this as part of the ongoing effort by the Left to separate America from God
and tradition. For that reason, it is worthwhile to delve a little deeper into the issue than what is normally provided
by what is claimed by transgender people themselves. [...] It should not come as a surprise that these radical procedures can
lead to many horrific complications and often require follow-up surgeries and many sessions on a psychiatrist's couch.
[Anecdotes omitted for brevity, among other things.] Interestingly, all four of these people aren't all that sorry about
having their surgeries. At most, they seem to regret picking the wrong surgeon. This speaks volumes of the depth
of their mental instability. Transgender genital surgery is dangerous. And for what? It is reported that
many of the recipients of genital operations admit to not being cured of their gender dysphoria. [...] Given that fact and
the problems in transitioning into another gender with surgery and/or hormone treatments, it is little wonder then that those
with gender dysphoria have a 41% rate for suicides or attempted suicides compared with just 4.6% of the general population.
Study: Lesbians, bisexual girls at 'higher
risk' of getting suspended, expelled from school. A new study out of Princeton University says that "same-sex
attracted teens" have a greater chance of being disciplined at school, with lesbians and bisexual females facing the biggest
odds. According to a Princeton press release, sociology PhD candidate Josh Mittleman's paper "Sexual Orientation and
School Discipline: New Evidence from a Population-Based Sample" (abstract only; subscription required for full paper)
claims LGB teens have a "29 percent higher [chance] of experiencing exclusionary discipline," but girls' chances are a
whopping 95% greater. Mittleman utilized information from the "Fragile Families and Childhood Wellbeing Study" which
studied kids born in the US between 1998 and 2000 — "roughly three-quarters of whom were born to unmarried
parents" (emphasis added).
Cory
Booker presses Mike Pompeo: 'Do you think gay sex is a perversion?'. CIA Director Mike Pompeo was pressed for his views
on homosexuality Thursday [4/12/2018] during his confirmation hearing to be secretary of state. Pompeo, a former Kansas congressman,
said he would treat State Department employees fairly regardless of their sexual orientation if he's confirmed, but did not directly
answer questions from Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., about whether he views homosexuality as a perversion.
When
this playground opened, no one told the parents about the sex predator on staff. When a new playground popped
up in the backyard of a storied LGBTQ community center in Wilton Manors, its directors hailed it as the first of its
kind. Backed by corporate sponsors JetBlue and Kaboom!, it was designed to be a "safe space" for same-sex couples and
their children to play free from judgment or harassment, a statement to South Florida that "our families matter," as one
board member told the Miami Herald in 2015. But The Pride Center at Equality Park had a secret known only to the director
and his confidants: The janitor was a convicted sex predator.
Sexual
orientation top risk for suicidal thoughts in college freshmen. Nearly one third of first-year college students
have thought about suicide, according to a study across eight countries, and non-heterosexual identity or feelings were the
biggest risks for this kind of thinking or behavior. Having a religion other than Christianity, being female, having
unmarried parents or at least one deceased parent and being age 20 or older were also important risk factors, though being a
sexual minority also carried the highest risk of transitioning from suicidal thoughts to plans to attempts, the researchers found.
Nobody
Is Truly Transgender Because Sex Change Is 'Physically Impossible,' Writes Philosopher. Talk of "sex change" is
a scientific misnomer, argues philosopher Ryan T. Anderson in a recent article, since it is impossible to change someone's
sex by bombarding them with hormones or performing cosmetic surgery on them. A person can pretend to be a member of the
opposite sex, Dr. Anderson notes, but it will never be more than play-acting since one's biological sex is a physical
reality outside the individual's control. "Modern science shows that our sexual organization begins with our DNA and
development in the womb, and that sex differences manifest themselves in many bodily systems and organs, all the way down to
the molecular level," Anderson writes.
Transgender
wrestler Mack Beggs wins Texas girls title again. For the second year in a row, a transgender wrestler has won
the Texas girls' Class 6A 110lbs division. Mack Beggs, an 18-year-old senior from Euless Trinity High School near Dallas,
entered the tournament in Cypress outside of Houston with an undefeated record. He beat Chelsea Sanchez — who
he beat for the title in 2017 — in the final match on Saturday [2/24/2018]. Video posted online showed a mix
of cheers and boos from the crowd following Beggs' win. Beggs is in the process of transitioning from female to male and
taking a low-dose of testosterone.
The Editor says...
This simply means there is no more wrestling for girls, at least not on a level playing field.
If someone gained this advantage (through the use of hormones) in the Olympics, they'd be thrown out.
Growing
body of research rejects transgender movement. Is Caitlyn Jenner a woman? A growing body of research from
scientists, philosophers and feminists says no. The latest contribution to the debate is "When Harry Became Sally," a
just-released book by Heritage Foundation senior research fellow Ryan T. Anderson, who critiques the transgender movement on
the grounds of metaphysics, medicine and public policy. Contrary to the transgender movement's central claim —
that "gender identity" determines whether someone is a man, a woman or something else — Mr. Anderson said the only
rationale for determining an organism's sex is "by that organism's organization with respect to sexual reproduction."
Study:
Transgender Ideology Powered by $400 Million from Business and Advocates. The transgender ideology is being
covertly funded by a network of wealthy transgender donors and a variety of investors in the drug, surgery and healthcare
industries, says Jenifer Bilek, a New York-based feminist. Bilek tracked the flow of pro-transgender funding via donors
and business groups, and she argues more than $400 million has been spent to promote the claim that men can switch their
"gender" to become legal women whenever they want to do so.
Who
Are the Rich, White Men Institutionalizing Transgender Ideology? As an environmental activist who was
de-platformed from a speaking venue by transactivists, in 2013 I developed curiosity about the power of this group to force
this development. A year later, when Time magazine announced a transgender tipping point on its cover, I had already
begun to examine the money behind the transgender project. I have watched as all-women's safe spaces, universities, and
sports opened their doors to any man who chose to identify as a woman. Whereas men who identify as transwomen are at
the forefront of this project, women who identify as transmen seem silent and invisible. I was astonished that such a
huge cultural change as the opening of sex-protected spaces was happening at such a meteoric pace and without consideration
for women and girls' safety, deliberation, or public debate.
Parents
Lose Custody of Daughter for Opposing Transgender Medical Treatments. Parents of a 17-year-old girl lost
custody of their daughter for opposing her wish for transgender medical treatments. Judge Sylvia Sieve Hendon of
Hamilton County, Ohio has allowed the girl to be taken into the custody of her grandparents — who support her
medical transition — allowing them to make decisions that will further along her physical transition to the
opposite sex. According to CNN, Hendon ordered that the family's names not be released. The parents reportedly
continued to call their daughter by her given name, rather than a male name, and refused to consent to hormone treatments
that were recommended by her medical team. The girl claimed she became suicidal as a result of her parents' refusal to
accept that she wanted to transition to a male.
T-Mobile and Leftism.
Tabula rasa, or the mind as a blank slate, is central to the progressive creation mythos. This fallacy asserts that everything
human beings think, say, and do derives from what they learn in the environment, as controlled by society. For example, an application
of tabula rasa trending now is that male babies become boys and female babies become girls mainly because society tells them they
have to, and requires they be given "gendered" clothes and toys. This thesis is so at odds with natural phenomena it must be
deemed insane. Tabula rasa is dear to the left because it minimizes individuality and personal responsibility, while emphasizing
the differences among groups rather than within groups. [...] Of course, "love who you want" is a dog whistle for the "LGBT" entitlement,
and especially for same-sex marriage.
Christian
Teacher Fired, Reported to Counter-Terror Unit After Telling Lesbian 'God Loves You'. A Christian teacher in
Bristol was fired and reported as a "radicalisation threat" after she answered questions from pupils about her beliefs, an
employment tribunal has heard. Svetlana Powell was dismissed from the T2 Apprenticeship Academy in Bristol in July
2016 after leaders at the government-funded college said students had been offended by comments the teacher made.
Transgender Ideology
Hurts Kids. Properly understanding sex, gender, gender identity, and gender dysphoria will continue to be
pressing concerns in 2018. A proper understanding is a prerequisite for properly forming people in the truth and properly
ministering to people in need. As new gender ideologies are promoted throughout America, their lies will impact not
only those who suffer from gender dysphoria, but all children who need to mature in their self-understanding as a boy or
girl, man or woman, a potential husband or wife, father or mother.
The
Sex-Change Revolution Is Based on Ideology, Not Science. America is in the midst of what has been called a
"transgender moment." In the space of a year, transgender issues went from something that most Americans had never heard of
to a cause claiming the mantle of civil rights. But can a boy truly be "trapped" in a girl's body? Can modern medicine
really "reassign" sex? Is sex something "assigned" in the first place? What's the loving response to a friend or child
experiencing a gender identity conflict? What should our law say on these issues? These shouldn't be difficult questions.
Letting
an 8-year-old be a drag queen isn't progressive, it's child abuse. Move over transgender kids, there is a new
trend in town. Drag kids — kids dressed in full garb of their biologically opposite gender — are
now joining the scene with transgender kids. The parents, guardians, and advocates of transgender or drag kids are not
only supportive, but seem to be encouraging the child's experience and publicity. There's nothing politically correct
about this new frontier; it's abuse, merely distorted and cloaked in progressivism.
Transgenderism
Is an Intellectual Disease. The United States, and the West generally, is full of well-meaning people —
therapists, teachers, school guidance counselors, and others — who want to believe that there is nothing wrong
with "gender dysphoria." This desire is akin to the attitude many now take toward homosexuality. In each case, one
is not supposed to believe something is wrong with certain people, because doing so might cause them pain. And yet, it has
never been shown that anyone is "born that way," and it may be that both male homosexuality and gender dysphoria signify failures
of development. Female homosexuals, it seems, are usually so by deliberation: In their weariness or disgust with men,
they choose to be with other women. Presumably they could, if they wished, go back to men, as it were. Male homosexuals,
based on their own accounts, appear to be so because of childhood traumas or abuse. It may take a wide variety of forms, but
the trauma or abuse always alienates the boy from his father or from other boys his age.
By
a single vote, New Hampshire permits teens not to want to be gay. A recent trend in many states is to outlaw "conversion therapy," where
people who are unhappy with homosexual inclinations go through therapy to dispense with those inclinations. Even though the process is voluntary,
liberal states cannot tolerate the idea of someone with same-sex attractions wanting help to get rid of them. [...] Now New Hampshire, by a single vote,
has failed to pass a bill that would have prevented teenagers with homosexual tendencies from getting therapy to get rid of those tendencies.
The
Whore of Babylon Dances the Night Away. I spent a restless night last night — thoughts of how far
down the sewage tank this nation has gone — thinking of how polluted this nation has become and how the
perverts — the Sodomites — the Lesbians — the child molesters — have infected
this nation and so many in it How wicked — vile — deceitful — degenerate —
depraved — Like Nineveh, like Rome — sin fills the air and open rebellion against God is everywhere.
[...] If you are attending one of the many churches that allows the perversion of the pulpit with the preaching of Sodomy as
being acceptable then YOU are siding with Satan. If you have a Lesbian or Sodomite or Child Molester occupying any
office in your church then you are condoning SIN.
Six
Insane California Laws That Will Be Implemented On Monday. [#5] You can make up your gender on official state IDs:
California will abolish its requirement that a person must go "clinically appropriate treatment for the purpose of gender transition"
if they want to change the sex on their birth certicate, which means that men can say they're women, and vice-versa, on state IDs like
driver's licenses. Beginning in 2019, driver's licenses will have three options for sex: male, female, and nonbinary.
LGBT
culture war sees transgenders make major advances in 2017. I'm often criticized by pro-LGBT radicals for
referring to their assault on morality and traditional values as a culture war, even though there are organizations within
the movement that refer to their agenda using the same words. Introducing: The Edinburgh Chapter of Action for
Trans Health (ATH), a group that openly advocates using "radical violence," the destruction of capitalism, open borders, and
disarming government and the military. [...] With 2017 being called "the year that transgender madness took over" in Europe,
ATH now enjoys unprecedented influence on matters of policy in the UK's government-run healthcare system —
National Health Services (NHS) — and it has played a central role in the government's attempt to deal with gender
recognition reform.
Gay,
lesbian and bisexual high schoolers report 'tragically high' suicide risk. High school students who identify as
gay, lesbian or bisexual are more likely to report planning or attempting suicide compared with their heterosexual peers, a
new study finds. In a nationwide survey in 2015, 40 percent of adolescents who identified as one of these sexual
minorities or said they were unsure of their orientation reported seriously considering suicide. Thirty-five percent
reported planning suicide, and 25 percent reported attempting suicide. That's compared with 15 percent,
12 percent and 6 percent, respectively, for heterosexual high schoolers, researchers report in the Dec. 19
JAMA. The risk of suicidal behavior among sexual minority youth is "tragically high," says Anna Mueller, a sociologist
at the University of Chicago, who was not involved in the study.
Christian
Teacher Suspended for 'Misgendering' Trans Pupil Sues School. A Christian teacher is suing his secondary school
after being suspended for referring to a biologically female pupil as a "girl". Joshua Sutcliffe, 27, from Oxford, argues
that he was not trained in the new, quickly evolving, gender politics and should not be forced to accept transgender ideology
as a Christian. He says he was investigated and suspended after he said, "well done, girls" to a group of female pupils,
including a pupil who "identified" as a boy.
I'm a Pediatrician. Here's What
I Did When a Little Boy Patient Said He Was a Girl. Our bodies declare our sex. Biological sex is not
assigned. Sex is determined at conception by our DNA and is stamped into every cell of our bodies. Human
sexuality is binary. You either have a normal Y chromosome, and develop into a male, or you don't, and you will develop
into a female. There are at least 6,500 genetic differences between men and women. Hormones and surgery cannot change
this. An identity is not biological, it is psychological. It has to do with thinking and feeling. Thoughts and
feelings are not biologically hardwired. Our thinking and feeling may be factually right or factually wrong. [...] No one
is born transgender. If gender identity were hardwired in the brain before birth, identical twins would have the same
gender identity 100 percent of the time. But they don't.
Episcopal
cleric prays for Queen Elizabeth's heir to be gay. Reverend Holdsworth is a prominent British pro-homosexuality
activist. The fundamental precept of the reverend's political movement is that homosexuality is inborn, cannot be
changed, and must not be repressed. This despite overwhelming evidence that homosexuality is a complex phenomenon with
complex causes. Holdsworth's prayers of homosexualization are not only for the future, but also for the present.
For the sake of his political aims, Holdsworth hopes that the little boy is already indelibly homosexual and will be
powerless over that condition throughout life. It seems that Reverend Holdsworth has been thinking about Prince
George's sexuality for some time. He first publicly hoped, in a blog post two years ago, that the prince grows up to be
homosexual. The boy was a toddler of two at the time. Any time an adult makes sexually oriented statements about
a child, it is abusive — and when about a baby, it is sick.
Anglican
Minister Urges Prayers for Prince George to Be Gay. A prominent Anglican cleric and gay rights campaigner known
for contentious gestures has urged believers to pray for Prince George — age 4, and third in line to the
throne — to find the love "of a fine young gentleman" when he grows up so as to advance the cause of same-sex
marriage in church.
The
Transgender Agenda: The War on Truth. Today, writing in the Daily Mail, Peter Hitchens takes aim at the
latest appalling piece of leftist dogma. That being the transgender agenda. He points out that a vanguard of
revolutionary fanatics are using the transgender agenda to take control of your thought. They are making themselves the
final and ultimate arbiters of truth... thus relieving reality and objective facts of the burden. And they are of
course using their superior wisdom to mutilate innocent children.
The
transgender zealots are destroying truth itself. Most of these politically correct fads are just designed to
wind us up and provoke us. For example, I now regret having wasted so much time trying to argue rationally about
same-sex marriage. All the sexual revolutionaries wanted was an excuse to call me a bigot. They could then ignore
everything I said, or tell lies about me, or both. It was a tiny issue. In 2014, for example, in England and
Wales, there were 247,372 heterosexual weddings, and 4,850 same-sex marriages. Already there are several hundred
same-sex divorces each year. Once the novelty has worn off, I suspect the numbers of same-sex unions will decrease,
just as heterosexual ones are doing. The point — that the old ways are dead and gone — will have
been made, and the campaigners will move on to something else. I once thought the same about the transgender
issue. But the idea that people are whatever sex they think they are is a terrifying weapon in the hands of modern
Thought Police. Whatever you say, you cannot possibly be right about this.
Survey
Shows How Many Democrats Believe Your Gender Can Be Different Than Biological Sex. Most of us didn't need a
poll to show us that liberals have lost their grip on reality. But Pew Research Center is providing one anyway.
In a survey that will probably leave you speechless about the radical bent of President Barack Obama's party, Pew asked
Americans what they really think about gender identity. If the results don't surprise you, check your pulse.
First, the good news. A majority of Americans (though far less than one might guess, 54 percent) still believe that a
person's gender is "determined at birth." Fewer, 44 percent, think someone "can be a man or woman even if that is different
than the sex they were assigned at birth." That's right. Only a 10 percent gap separates Americans on what, a decade
ago, would have been a consensus issue.
Questioning
gender fluidity is the new blasphemy. The capitulation of the establishment to the politics of transgenderism has been
astonishing. I'm struggling to remember any other time when a new and contested ideology has been so uncritically embraced by
the powers-that-be. We have a Tory government pushing a Gender Recognition Act that would allow anyone to change his or her
gender without so much as popping a hormone pill. An established Church which yesterday issued guidelines to its schools
encouraging them to let kids 'explore gender identity'. Police forces exchanging helmets for caps because 'gender-based
headgear' is disrespectful to trans people. And of course a university system — the nurturer of future
leaders — in which women's colleges are throwing themselves open to people who were born male, students are told
to use gender-neutral pronouns, and anyone who says 'Men cannot become women' can expect to be hounded off campus.
First
openly transgender state legislator elected in Virginia. Virginia House of Delegates candidate Danica Roem (D)
has defeated longtime Del. Robert Marshall (R), becoming Virginia's first openly transgender elected official, according
to The Washington Post. Roem's win in Virginia's 13th District also means she is poised to become the first openly
transgender person to be elected and seated in a state legislature, advocates say.
Palm
Springs City Council now entirely queer after election of transgender, bisexual women. The Palm Springs, Calif.,
City Council is entirely LGBT or queer after two new members were elected to the council Tuesday [11/7/2017]. Lisa
Middleton made history Tuesday as the first openly transgender candidate elected to a nonjudicial office in California.
Christy Holstege, who identifies as bisexual, won the second open seat on the city council. They beat out four other
candidates in Tuesday's election, the Desert Sun reported. Middleton won about 31% of the vote while Holstege won with
30% of the vote in her favor, the Desert Sun reports. Their election means that the council is now 100% LGBT or queer,
according to Equality California, which endorsed both candidates, and contributed to their campaigns.
Night
of change for Minneapolis City Council as first transgender candidate wins. The Minneapolis City Council was
poised for historic change Tuesday as voters elected the city's first transgender council member, on a night that saw a
handful of veteran council members from across the city struggling to hold on against strong challenges. "I'm feeling
elated. Ecstatic. Extraordinarily happy right now," Andrea Jenkins, who becomes the first transgender woman of
color elected to public office in a major U.S. city, said from her election night party at Curran's Restaurant. "I'm
really, really deeply proud of my community."
LGBT
characters on U.S. TV at record highs. The number of lesbian, gay and transgender characters on U.S. television
shows have reached record highs, and campaign group GLAAD said on Thursday [11/9/2017] that their stories were more important
than ever given moves in the United States to roll back LGBT acceptance.
5
Times Paul Singer Funded Globalist Nonsense Before the Anti-Trump Dossier. [#2] Homosexual marriage went from a
radical idea in all but the most leftist of circles to the nationwide law of the land in the space of 15 years. Few
Republicans can claim as much responsibility for this social change as pro-gay marriage billionaire Paul Singer. He,
for example, personally intervened to pressure the New York State legislature to approve the new definition of marriage.
His links to the leftist agenda, however, did not end with same-sex marriage. The so-called Human Rights Campaign, to
which Singer continues to cut checks, led boycotts of the entire state of North Carolina when the elected representatives of
that state saw fit to pass a law maintaining the separation of bathrooms on sex.
Swamp Central: U.S. State
Department. Romania is heavily influenced by the United States government, specifically the Departments of
State and Defense, and at least the State Department seems intent on advancing the leftist agenda on LGBT issues in foreign
nations as aggressively as if Donald Trump had never been elected. U.S. Ambassador to Romania Hans Klemm has been an
outspoken champion of homosexuality, even marching for "gay marriage" in the pouring rain this past summer. The jury is
still out on the mixed messages coming Defense Secretary James Mattis, who has so far delayed the push for transgenderism in
the military but allowed the rest of the "gay" agenda to proceed. But just last week an Air Force colonel has been
punished for refusing to affirm "gay marriage," and Secretary Mattis has been AWOL in his defense.
California
first state to legally recognize third gender option. California Gov. Jerry Brown (D) on Sunday [10/15/2017]
signed new legislation that will allow state residents to choose a gender option other than male or female on official documents.
The legislation, a top priority of civil rights groups, also makes it easier for transgender people to change their gender
identification on birth certificates or driver's licenses.
Harvey
Weinstein Is a Product of the Left's Rebellion Against God. During my time as a company member with a Shakespeare
festival, I learned the phrase "gay in training." At the beginning of each season, the gay men in the cast would eyeball
the interns, stage hands, and new cast members and decide which ones would become a "gay in training." Keep in mind that
many of the targets were underage. Inevitably, a previously masculine straight male would be manipulated and psychologically
tortured into becoming a queen that was passed around for the enjoyment of the gay cast members. How did the feminists of the
cast react? The same way that the rest of the progressive company members reacted — they laughed and cheered it on.
The Great Climate Hoax
Challenged by 31,000 Scientists. [Scroll down] When it comes to biology, the Democrats have also shown there that they are
anti-science, and only chase pseudo-science that fits their political agenda. In biology, the sex of an organism is biological, and does not
change if a person decides to dress in different clothes, or take actions to cause their gender to seem to be different on the surface. In
short, if a "transgender" person were to be dug up by scientists a couple hundred years from now, the scientists, using science, would not decide that
the lady-boy was a female. The DNA evidence of the remains would tell the scientists that the cross-dressing, genital-mutilating person was,
indeed, still a male.
Knowingly
exposing others to HIV will no longer be a felony in California. Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill Friday
that lowers from a felony to a misdemeanor the crime of knowingly exposing a sexual partner to HIV without disclosing the
infection. The measure also applies to those who give blood without telling the blood bank that they are
HIV-positive. Modern medicine allows those with HIV to live longer lives and nearly eliminates the possibility of
transmission, according to state Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) and Assemblyman Todd Gloria (D-San Diego), authors
of the bill.
Gender
Ideology Harms Children. The American College of Pediatricians urges healthcare professionals, educators and
legislators to reject all policies that condition children to accept as normal a life of chemical and surgical impersonation
of the opposite sex. Facts — not ideology — determine reality. Human sexuality is an
objective biological binary trait: "XY" and "XX" are genetic markers of male and female, respectively — not
genetic markers of a disorder. The norm for human design is to be conceived either male or female. Human
sexuality is binary by design with the obvious purpose being the reproduction and flourishing of our species. This
principle is self-evident. The exceedingly rare disorders of sex development (DSDs), including but not limited to
testicular feminization and congenital adrenal hyperplasia, are all medically identifiable deviations from the sexual binary
norm, and are rightly recognized as disorders of human design. Individuals with DSDs (also referred to as "intersex")
do not constitute a third sex.
Encouraging
Gender Fluidity Is Child Abuse. [Scroll down] One of the biggest scare tactics transgender supporters
throw at parents is that they must allow gender transformation to prevent suicide. This is a huge lie. In Sweden,
one of the most lgbt-affirming countries in the world, the suicide rate for adults who undergo sex reassignment is 20 times
greater than that of the general population. [...] People today also refuse to acknowledge that the same God who created a
man and a woman stated clearly that homosexuality, lesbianism, transgenderism and even cross-dressing is an abomination
(Leviticus 20:13; Deuteronomy 22:5; Romans 1:26-27).
Birth
Control and Homosexuality: Unintended Consequences. In the 1980s, I had a boss who had gotten a masters
degree in psychology from New York University. He was a brilliant man; could have been a doctor. He told me a
story that explains much of what we see in society today. It seems that while doing his graduate work in the early
1960s, he had to do research on lab rats, which were given the synthetic hormones used in the then new birth control
pills. The results, he told me, showed that the grandchildren of these lab rats would have high rates of homosexual
behaviors. From what he told me, the findings were suppressed. Apparently, the powers that be wanted "the pill"
to pass muster. What happened to the second generation of rats that followed was of no consequence to them. Then
my boss told me: The first generation of kids born to mothers using the pill have already arrived. But we should
expect in another generation a noticeable increase in homosexual behavior, as they would be the second generation. As
that was then still in the future, I was shocked. This was told me in the mid '80s. By his reckoning, we should
have seen a societal explosion of homosexuality starting around 2000, and subsequently. And, of course, we have seen
such an explosion. His prediction came true.
12-Year-Old
Boy Who Transitioned to Female Changes His Mind Two Years Later. An Australian schoolboy who decided to
transition into a female has changed his mind two years later. At just 12-years-old, Patrick Mitchell, begged with his
mother to begin taking oestrogen hormones after doctors diagnosed him with gender dysphoria — a condition where a
person experiences distress because there is a mismatch between their biological sex and gender identity.
Fox
News Bankrolls Major LGBTQ Convention. [Scroll down] This effort appears to be aimed partly at recruiting
more members of the LGBTQ sexual minority into the organization, as if they were seen as underrepresented in the news or
broadcasting industries. Gallup polling shows that Americans vastly overestimate the percentage of the population that
is lesbian or gay, with a mean estimate of 23%, as compared to the 3.8% of the adult population who identified themselves as
lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender in Gallup Daily tracking in the first four months of this year. Only 9% of the
public holds the accurate view that this minority is 5% or less of the population, meaning that 91% of the public
substantially overestimates their numbers. In addition to organizing an annual convention with at least 350 attendees,
the NLGJA, founded in 1990, serves as a full-fledged LGBTQ lobbying organization with headquarters in Washington, D.C.
How
The Transgender Crusade Made Me Rethink My Support For Gay Marriage. Over the course of the last few months,
whenever I write or tweet anything, on any topic, I usually receive a caustic social media response about my position on
transgenderism. These trolls post links to my tweets about the subject and screenshots, as if showing me my own recent
opinion is some sort of gotcha. These individuals even send tweets to my husband and employers, perhaps in hope that
they will use their power over me to get my opinion in check with The Approved Position.
California
Set To Be First State To Add "Gender X" Designation To Licenses. Up until now, state issued identification
cards around the country have limited gender designations to 'male' and 'female' because, well, biological science has
historically taught us that those were the only two options. But that hateful and narrowed-minded micro-aggression
perpetrated by our genetic code will no longer be tolerated in the state of California, whether it's a scientifically proven
fact or not. As the San Francisco Chronicle points out today [8/29/2017], California's legislature is currently
considering SB 179 that will add a new "nonbinary" gender designation to the state's identification cards.
Women
Push Back Against Crossdressing Men in Female Prisons. Surprise, surprise. Women, whose interests
liberals loudly claim to represent, don't like it that perverted men who dress in women's clothes have been forced upon them
in prisons in order to advance the liberal agenda.
The Civil
Rights Con. [H]ere is what is now defined as equivalent to the abolition of slavery, suffrage for women, and
the elimination of government sponsored racism: • Those who willfully choose to be identified and
defined by what they do in the privacy of their bedroom must be given governmental protection and recognition
• Despite what science may determine, the nation, in order to insure equal rights and outcomes, must ratify that
there are no differences between men and women. • What is considered to be a mental illness by scores
of medical professionals (transgenderism) must be recast as not only normal behavior but a government protected civil
right. • All white people, even those living in squalor in Appalachia or the inner cities, are
privileged citizens because of their skin color and must, because of their inbred racism, defer to the other races in order
to insure the elimination of their racist proclivities. That this litany of "civil rights" even exists or is seriously
being equated to the essential civil rights movements of the past beggars the imagination.
Moonbat Model Family.
Congratulations to the media on finding the perfect model family to encourage us to emulate.
Liberalism, Transgenderism, and Gay
Conversion Bans. Starting in California in 2012, eight states and several localities have passed laws barring so-called "gay
conversion therapy." Until now the gay activists championing these bans have compromised by limiting their applicability to the counselling
and treatment of minors. But a bill that was recently introduced in, and which will undoubtedly be passed by, New York City's radical City
Council extends this prohibition to adults as well. So therapists will be barred from engaging in any conversation with adult patients
conflicted about their sexuality, other than to essentially read them a government-approved script. And the New York law will likely be
the model for future bills elsewhere.
Transgender
day camp among first to include 4-year-olds. The camp in the San Francisco Bay Area city of El Cerrito caters to transgender and
"gender fluid" children, ages 4 to 12, making it one of the only camps of its kind in the world open to preschoolers, experts say.
The Cross Beats The Stolen
Rainbow. The sweet rainbow image has been violated, raped by the deluded and fraudulent, and it now serves too
often as a garish signpost for slavery to grave homosexual sin. It's clear God did not intend for the rainbow to
represent rebellion, iniquity and division. So how did this precious symbol become the banner, with few objections, for
human depravity, lust, defiance and heresy?
Narcissus
Revises Christianity, Makes It Liberal. Nowhere in the entire Bible is there any positive reference to same-sex
activity, yet there are numerous vilifications of same-sex activity. Jesus does tell us to engage in sex —
with the opposite sex. Jesus laid down a specific model for marriage in Matthew 19:4-12, referring back to Genesis and
the fact that male and female were created for permanent unity as one flesh. To those raising caveats, Jesus makes
clear that if people cannot respect that model, they must live as a "eunuch" (Matthew 19:12) and have no marriage or sexual
relations at all. In addition, Jesus describes two sexual sins (adultery and sexual impurity) as "defilement" even if
only spoken (Matthew 15:19). The other defilements are evil thoughts, murder, theft, slander, and blasphemy.
Given the myriad references outside the four gospels labeling homosexuality defilement, abomination, unnatural, etc. —
would you, if you felt same-sex desires, be willing to gamble your salvation on the pro-gay interpretation of Jesus?
London
council planners insist a new block of flats must have a gay bar as a condition of the development. London
council planners have told developers that a new block of flats must include a gay bar — and they will send inspectors to
check it's gay enough. Tower Hamlets bosses will only let the site of closed gay bar the Joiners Arms be built on if
the developers promise to include a pub that will 'remain a lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender-focused venue for a
minimum of 12 years'. London's culture at risk officer Ed Bayes will make sure the person running the bar is
'sufficiently LGBT'.
The Editor says...
Irony: The "culture at risk officer" will ensure that the culture is at risk.
Refuse
to Accept the Lies — Before It Is Too Late. A woman gave birth the other day, and the liberal media
squeed in delight, which is weird — usually the media only cares about babies in the context of waxing them
in the womb. [...] But this particular birth was celebrated because the mother was pretending to be a man, and her delusion
was so intense that she apparently partook of surgical mutilation and chemical intervention to (not really) conform her body
to her delusion. I guess we're supposed to marvel at her physical transformation, but that would be a lie too.
She looks like a woman with some surgery and a scraggly goatee. It's not beautiful. It's sad. But we're not
supposed to tell that obvious truth. We're supposed to join in the lie and praise the Emperor's New Secondary Sex
Characteristics.
Resisting the
Tranny State. It's absolutely none of my business how any adult decides to express him/her/itself sexually. But
the thing is, these days trannies are not content to just go be trannies; they insist that we become accomplices to their fantasy.
We have to pretend to see what they see. We have to use pronouns that we know are misapplied. We have to allow dudes [...]
to shower, change, and go to the bathroom alongside our daughters. We have to foot the bill for sex change surgeries. To
even suggest that sex change operations are elective and not a "medical necessity" is to challenge the tranny illusion.
Transgender Hysteria Reveals Mental Illness
At The Highest Echelons of Government, Business and Civil Society. That so many sultans of Silicon Valley would
echo in unison their dissatisfaction with President Trump's new policy on transgenders in the military is shocking at best,
nefarious at worst. What is now clearly evident is that the LBGT agenda which was foisted on the USA by Obama was
actually dictated by Deep State. Why, otherwise, would these tech titans put up such a fuss about removing all such
unqualified transgendered characters from the U.S. Armed Forces. Do these corporate CEOs and presidents really want our
tax dollars being spent on sex change operations for soldiers and other military recruits? How preposterous and totally
unacceptable is that? Really, what a complete waste of precious tax revenue! And for what: to indulge a
mentally ill service member's twisted desire to transgender themselves into the opposite sex?
What
Is normal? What Is Abnormal? Who Decides? [Scroll down] It is as wrong to mutilate the body
to ease the discomfort of Gender Identity Disorder as it is to amputate healthy legs. I raised the ire of others in the
online discussion by declaring that Gender Identity Disorder (GID) is indeed a disorder. That upset some of my
respondents, because as social liberals, they identify so-called transgendered people as off limits to criticism for their
preferences. I proposed the idea that the human species is composed of two complementary sexes, each with a different
(but overlapping) function from the other, equal in worth. Same-sex pairings, therefore, are sort of like wearing two
left shoes. But my correspondents would have none of that.
What
Would a Fair Transgender Policy in the Military Look Like? What can we say about the plan to revoke Obama-era
transgender policy? For one thing, it violates no one's "rights." Transgender people continue to possess all of the
rights of their fellow citizens, but there is no "right" to serve in the military. The military rejects many people
based on physical and psychological conditions. Second, we are not talking about changing a longstanding policy.
Opening service to transgenders was an executive decision made during the last year of the Obama administration; it was
scheduled to go into effect in June. The Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps had originally requested a two-year delay to
assess the costs and possible consequences of the new rules, but finally agreed to seek a six-month delay, a request approved
by Secretary James Mattis. Meanwhile, Congress failed to hold hearings on the subject. A change in the policy
would be nothing but a return to the status quo ante.
6
Ridiculous Arguments In Favor Of Transgender Soldiers. The Department of Defense lifted the ban on transgender
soldiers serving openly only a year ago. It's hard to believe we have accurate data on the results because we can't
even agree on how many transgender military we have. The DoD calculates up to 7,000; the RAND Corporation says somewhere
around 2,500; The Palm Center, a research institute in San Francisco, calculates 12,600; the OutServe-Servicemembers Legal
Defense Network says 16,000; and Kristen Beck, a former Navy Seal who served for 20 years as Christopher Beck before
coming out as a transgender woman, estimates there are 75,000 to 100,000 transgender personnel in uniform.
Let the Dems Be the Transgender Party.
Trump's uncomplicated defense of common sense is nothing if not conservative. He doesn't need "commissions" to tell him whether or not enlisting men
who pretend to be women and women who pretend to be men hurts military readiness. Anyone with five senses and a functioning intellect can see that it
does. It is only under the vast experiment against common sense that is liberalism could such obvious truths fall into disfavor. Of course, the
stupid party is joining the evil party in this experiment against common sense.
Major
Satanist Group Brags That Over Half Of Its Members Are Practicing Sodomites. It is no surprise that the LGBT
brags about demons or the devil, because homosexuality is a vile sin. However, according to a recent statement from a
major satanist group, they have confirmed that a large number of their members are in fact LGBT.
At
this Indy library story hour, drag queens read to kids. Forget pajamas and cartoons. For Halle Pino, Ida
Kay and Blair St. Clair, Saturday morning meant story time for a room of young kids — and dress-up story
time at that. The occasion? Drag Queen Storytime at the Indianapolis Central Library. The trio read tales
with superhero themes to the kids who sprawled out on the floor, in the seats and on parents' laps in Clowes Auditorium.
On the program were "Ten Rules of Being a Superhero," "Princess Super Kitty," "My Mom Has X-ray Vision" and crafts that
included mask-making and coloring. The trio took turns reading the books, sprinkling color commentary throughout
that appealed to the few dozen kids and adults.
Yes, LGBT
Activists Want to Punish Christian Conservatives. Call me paranoid if you like, but I'm simply quoting what Tim
Gill, the foremost LGBT political donor says in his own words. "We're going into the hardest states in the country," he
declares. "We're going to punish the wicked." That means Christian conservatives. In short, if you won't comply
with LGBT activism, be it as a minister or as a businessperson, you will be punished. That is Gill's goal, and to deny
it is to be in denial.
How
the Left Hijacked the American Psychiatric Association and Normalized Personality Disorders. The evidence is
clear — the American Left succeeded in lobbying the American Psychiatric Association (APA) to eliminate some of
the sexual identity disorders from their Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). [...] With
transvestitism finally voted out of the DSM, in June 2015 LGBT rights groups had one urgent agenda item for President Barack
Obama: End the ban on transgender people serving in the military. It wasn't that transgender people were
straining red rope barriers, lining up at recruiting stations to serve in the military in a rush of abject patriotism;
no, acceptance into the military allowed transgenders free government-paid sexual reassignment surgery. No longer was
transvestitism considered a mental disorder, it was now considered a medically correctable condition, like a cleft lip and
palate. Medically-correctable conditions like cleft lip and palate correct physical birth defects. Sexual
identity disorders are not physical birth defects but mental defects.
Everyday Snowflakes. [O]ur
demand that incompatible desires be met at the same time imposes strange obligations on others. I first thought about this during the
early years of the AIDS epidemic, when it was demanded of us that we should believe incompatible things simultaneously, for example that it
was simply a disease like any other and that it was a disease of unprecedented importance and unique significance; that it could strike anybody
but that certain group were martyrs to it; that it must be normalized and yet treated differently. For example, tests for it alone of
all the thousands of ills that flesh was heir to[,] had, by legal prescription, to be preceded by pre-test counseling. It was a bit
like living under a small version of a communist dictatorship, in which the law of noncontradiction had been abrogated in favor of dialectics, under
which all contradictions were compatible, but which contradictions had to be accepted was a matter of the official policy of the moment.
Judge
Forces Prison To Provide Hormone Therapy To A Transgender Dude Named Sparkles Wilson. A federal judge has
ordered officials at a taxpayer-funded county prison in Pennsylvania to provide — and foot the cost for —
hormone therapy treatment for transgender inmate Steven Fritz, a man who longs to become a woman and who prefers to go by the
name Sparkles Wilson. Judge Robert D. Mariani issued the order late Friday [7/14/2017], reports The Scranton
Times-Tribune. Mariani's ruling comes after Fritz had filed a $1 million-plus lawsuit alleging that he will suffer
physical harm and mental trauma if he does not continue receiving regular estrogen infusions.
Army
Training Tells Soldiers Not to Gossip About Transgender Troops. The United States Army's training for how to
handle transgender issues instructs troops not to gossip about male soldiers who identify as female. The hour-long
mandatory training is being issued in response to the Obama administration's directive to integrate transgender soldiers into
the military. Last week, Secretary of Defense James Mattis delayed the Obama policy by six months. The Army is
still moving forward with its transgender training, which is conducted in the morning in place of physical training, the
Federalist reported.
The Left's Breaking Point? First, it must be understood
up front that in the grand scheme of things "transgender" people constitute a statistically insignificant portion of the population. They're
so exceedingly rare as to make almost any public-policy or political argument about their treatment by society a sideshow in a true sense. We're
not talking about 10 percent of the population who suffers from "gender dysphoria," or even one percent. We're talking about a small fraction
of one percent. There may be more Amish people than transgender people.
How
Transgender Ideology Has Infiltrated the Field of Pediatrics and Produced Large-Scale Child Abuse. Transgender
politics have taken Americans by surprise, and caught some lawmakers off guard. Just a few short years ago, not many
could have imagined a high-profile showdown over transgender men and women's access to single-sex bathrooms in North Carolina.
But transgender ideology is not just infecting our laws. It is intruding into the lives of the most innocent among
us — children — and with the apparent growing support of the professional medical community.
Global
elites celebrate divorce of birth records from biology. What is it about "gender issues" that drives the
media/political elites mad? The government of Canada handed gender activists the crucial precedent they need. [...] So
serious are the issues of child abuse here that I must put them aside, possibly for another time. I want to confine myself
to the manner in which what has to be called fantasy has permeated the ruling class when it comes to the denial of biology.
Now, it must be kept in mind is that this is an identity card, not a birth certificate. That struggle is coming.
Taxpayers
Have Now Spent $3.5 Million to Find Out Why Lesbians Are Obese. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has now
spent over $3.5 million to determine why the majority of lesbians are obese. The project, now entering its fifth year,
received another grant worth $658,485 this summer. The total funding for the research is now $3,531,925. Funding has
more than doubled since the study was first revealed in 2013. Since, the study that is examining why three-quarters of
lesbians are obese, but gay men are not, has survived sequester cuts, and continues to produce results such as the discovery
that gay men have a "greater desire for toned muscles" than straight men. Another scientific paper associated with the
research concluded that lesbians have lower "athletic-self esteem" that may lead to higher rates of obesity.
Masterpiece Cakeshop Is Fighting for the First Amendment. For
one thing, no matter how many times people repeat it, the case isn't about discrimination or challenging gay marriage. But when the news first
broke, USA Today, for example, tweeted, "The Supreme Court has agreed to reopen the national debate over same-sex marriage." The headline (and
story) on the website was worse; it read, "Supreme Court will hear religious liberty challenge to gay weddings." Others similarly framed the case.
(And, don't worry, "religious liberty" is almost always solidly ensconced inside quotation marks to indicate that social conservatives are just using it
as a facade.) There is an impulse to frame every issue as a clash between the tolerant and the closed-minded. But the Masterpiece case doesn't
challenge, undermine or relitigate the issue of same-sex marriage in America. Gay marriage wasn't even legal in Colorado when this incident occurred.
It's
okay to decorate a police car with rainbow flags, but not Bible verses. It's permissible in the United States to decorate police cars with rainbow
flags to celebrate gay pride, but it's not permissible to decorate police cars with Bible verses honoring law enforcement officers. The Houston Police
Dept. is debuting a "Pride Car" for the city's gay pride parade, the Houston Chronicle reports. Police Chief Art Acevedo is downright giddy about the
new rainbow cruiser and the parade.
The
BBC Thinks Pedophilia Is Just Another "Sexual Orientation". The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) is
playing with fire by allowing an anonymous author to publish articles on its platform that aim to minimize the utter
depravity of pedophilia. Similar to what the far left publication Salon tried to do several years back (along with The
New York Times), the BBC seems to agree with this author that pedophilia isn't necessarily a disorder to be treated with
disdain, but rather a sexual orientation like homosexuality that simply requires "help." It wouldn't be the first time
that the BBC has entered the ring on the wrong side of the issue, having once employed a popular television personality by
the name of Jimmy Savile who was reported to have sexually abused at least 500 young boys and girls, as well as engaged in
necrophilia, or sex with dead bodies. The long-haired, odd looking goofball of a man always seemed off to many who knew
him, and yet the BBC apparently kept him on its payroll until his death in 2011.
Rights
of Conscience Besieged by Sexual Activists. Mississippi's House Bill 1523 establishes badly needed protections
for those Americans whose faith forbids them to participate in same-sex wedding ceremonies or to treat a person's gender as a
matter of preference rather than an immutable, God-given characteristic. The law precludes the state from taking
discriminatory actions against those who reject the latest fruits of the sexual revolution — who choose instead to
live in light of the knowledge that God created people "male" or "female," and to abide by the timeless moral law reserving
sexual intimacy for the permanent, exclusive bond of marriage between a man and a woman. The statute also creates a
legal defense for citizens who refuse to violate these core beliefs. The plaintiffs who challenged the statute argued
that they are "stigmatized" by the very existence of these religious tenets. I wonder if they've stopped to consider
the "stigma" experienced by devout individuals who have, due to a sickening erosion of First Amendment principles, actually
been prosecuted for refusing to forfeit their faith to someone else's ideas about human sexuality.
Lawmakers
in New York, D.C. Propose Third Sex on Driver's Licenses. Lawmakers in New York and Washington, D.C., this week
introduced two bills proposing a third sex field on local driver's licenses and ID cards. The moves comes just days
after Oregon made history as the first state to expand its own ID cards beyond just male and female — adding an
"X" option for people who identify their gender as non-binary, or who want to opt out of gender identification altogether.
New York Assistant Speaker of the House Felix Ortiz introduced his legislation on Monday [6/19/2017], saying it acknowledges those
who are "outside the stereotypical gender binary of male or female."
The Editor says...
The "gender binary" is not a stereotype, it's biology. Every person in the world has male chromosomes or female
chromosomes. Only the most poorly educated do not know that there is no third sex.
Trump to prosecute
schools that fail to embrace transgender lie. The state of Oregon recently made news by becoming the first
state to allow residents a third gender option on their driver's license or state identification. While this decision
to allow gender-science deniers the ability to identify as neither male or female is being hailed as evidence of Oregon's
aggressive leadership, they may find themselves playing catch-up by the time Trump is through.

LGBT
Community Now DEMANDING Permanent 'Rainbow Crosswalks' In Cities Across The Country. LGBTQ Nazis across many cities
in the country are calling for city officials to use taxpayer money to fund "rainbow crosswalks" to "honor the LGBTQ community."
Army's
transgender policy includes guidelines on male pregnancies. The Army has begun mandatory transgender
sensitivity training for soldiers. The training covers everything from "transfemale" soldiers to transgender shower
etiquette to dealing with a male soldier who becomes pregnant. [...] "That pregnancy scenario is beyond words," Chaplain
Alliance for Religious Liberty executive director Ron Crews told me. "This is an example of how this social policy can
be used simply to promote personal agendas at the expense of taxpayers with no regard for being what the military is all about."
US
top court rejects 'gay conversion' therapy ban challenge. The US Supreme Court on Monday [5/1/2017] left intact California's
ban on "gay conversion" therapy aimed at turning youths under age 18 away from homosexuality, rejecting a Christian minister's challenge
to the law asserting it violates religious rights. The justices, turning away a challenge to the 2012 law for the second time in
three years, let stand a lower court's ruling that it was constitutional and neither impinged upon free exercise of religion nor impacted
the activities of clergy members.
Dems
Push to Criminalize Treatment of Psychosexual Illnesses. The slippery slope couldn't get much steeper.
First, we were told to tolerate sickness. Soon, we will be forbidden by federal law to treat it: [...] [Senator Patty]
Murray yelps about a "hateful, damaging agenda" that will oppress those who suffer from psychosexual derangements "because of
who they are or who they love," as if allowing people to seek treatment for disease is somehow oppressing them —
even though the very serious disease involved here frequently leads to depression, suicide, self-mutilation, AIDS, et cetera.
[...] If tyranny, depravity, and sickness appeal to you, by all means vote Democrat.
Conversion only goes one direction?
Senate
Democrats Reintroduce Bill to Ban Conversion Therapy Nationwide. Democratic lawmakers reintroduced a bill on
Tuesday [4/25/2017] that would ban conversion therapy nationwide, a controversial practice that seeks to change a person's sexual
orientation or gender identity. The practice is currently banned in six states and in the District of Columbia. The
Therapeutic Fraud Prevention Act, filed by Senators Patty Murray of Washington and Corey Booker of New Jersey, constitutes a
renewed effort from Congressional Democrats to ban conversion therapy after a Republican majority let the bill die without a
hearing last year.
The Editor says...
If homosexuals are "born that way," as most of them insist, then how is conversion possible at all?
There Are No
Homosexuals Or Transgenders. If you are going to win an argument, you must get down to the operating
assumptions of what's being argued. We first heard that homosexuals were born that way, just like heterosexuals are
born with desires for those of the opposite sex. While numerous scientific studies have been done to find a genetic
link, nothing is conclusive. And even if there were a genetic link, it would not mean that the behavior was either
normal or moral. There are males and females. People who engage in same-sex sexuality do not become a new sexual
category. There is no third gender. The same is true of people who identify as transgender. It's all made
up. These new categories of gender and sexuality are social constructs.
Glamorization
of Transsexual Derangement Ruins Young Lives. Gender confusion is normally temporary; the damage inflicted by hormone blockers is
not. Many chemically deformed children go on to receive horrific sex-change surgery. Unsurprisingly, the attempted suicide rate among
transgenders is not far short of 50% — and no, this is not due to "discrimination," liberal dogma notwithstanding.
Could sodomy be to blame? Could promiscuity be to blame?
Syphilis
surges in Philadelphia. Could mobile apps be to blame? Syphilis, on the rise across the United States for
more than a decade, surged in Philadelphia last year, a worrisome signal that yet-to-be reported national numbers might
reflect a similar pattern. Infections rose 36 percent in 2016, the Philadelphia Department of Public Health reported
Wednesday, driven largely by men who have sex with men. National numbers lag a year behind, but other big cities are
experiencing similar spikes, said Caroline Johnson, acting deputy commissioner, who oversees disease control. "It's
going on all over," she said.
An
Atlanta Theater Faces Criticism for Gay Versions of Bible Stories. The work is an alternate version and comedic
sendup of stories from the Old Testament, presented through the eyes of a gay couple named Adam and Steve and a lesbian
couple named Jane and Mabel. It was written by Paul Rudnick and premiered Off Broadway in 1998. [...] The Out Front
Theater decided it would do its own rendition of it about a year ago. However, on March 27, emails, phone calls,
letters and Facebook messages blasting the decision started pouring in.
Obergefell's
Toxic Judicial Legacy. The cultural, legal, and political consequences of establishing a right to same-sex
marriage have dominated discussions regarding Justice Kennedy's Obergefell decision. Will religious institutions
that oppose same-sex marriage lose their tax-exempt status? What will happen to vendors whose consciences prohibit them
from participating in same-sex weddings? How and when will schools address same-sex marriage? Those consequences
are important and merit serious discussion. However, another aspect of the case — Justice Kennedy's
instructions regarding judges' authority to create new "rights" — will prove equally important in the long
run. In Obergefell, Justice Kennedy did far more than merely discover a constitutional right to same-sex
marriage. He wrote that judges have an ongoing "duty" to identify and protect new "fundamental rights." He
maintained that judges should institute new rights whenever their "reasoned judgment" suggests that it is appropriate
to do so.
Gilbert
Baker, inventor of gay rights rainbow flag, dies aged 65. Gilbert Baker, a San Francisco-based activist and
artist best known for creating the rainbow flag representing gay rights, has died at the age of 65. [...] No details were
immediately available on the cause of Baker's death or where he died.
Berkeley
killing renews debate over gender pronouns. Pablo Gomez Jr. was a University of California, Berkeley, senior
majoring in Latino studies and a prominent campus activist when authorities say he stabbed to death a popular elementary-school
teacher. Soon, the crime that police described as "very brutal and unusual" in a city that reported just two homicides
last year was sucked up into the debate over gender identity when it was reported that Gomez preferred to be called "they"
rather than "he."
Language
Police At Fancypants College Deem The Word 'Homosexual' Offensive Now. Emerson College, a fancypants school
dedicated solely to communication and performing arts, has officially deemed the word "homosexual" to be offensive.
"Use gay or lesbian when describing people who are attracted to members of the same sex," school officials instruct in the
guide. "Avoid the use of homosexual and homosexual relationship." The guide does not appear to provide any reason
for this rule in its 1,440-word "inclusive language" guide.
Transgenderism and
Cancer: Every cell in the human body has a sexual fingerprint in the sex chromosome (allosome) pairs. The born
male has a XY pair. The born female an XX. These chromosomes do serve a function beyond mere reproduction. [...] Protein
synthesis, so necessary for life, is controlled by these chromosomes. We would be foolish not to conjecture that Y chromosomes
were not designed to act properly in cell floating in a bath of female hormones; neither an XX pair in cell floating under a bath
of male hormones. Since these hormones might conceivably cause cells to go awry in protein production, as well as in cell
reproduction, we should not be surprised to see unusual problems of transgenders with cancers. Add in that transgenders, even
after surgery, will retain residue tissue unique to one gender, and noting that those specific tissues will be subjected to hormone
levels they were not designed to process, and the possible outcomes become frightening.
How
the Media Create the Culture. In the February 2017 issue of Family Circle, the advertisement right after
opening the cover of the magazine shows two interracial men resting together on a couch. One sports a tattoo on his arm
and they are in a home setting with the words "All homes are created equal." The advertisement comes from IKEA and, clearly,
the ad is about much more than the listed $399 price tag for the Hennes glass-door-cabinet. It involves the acceptance
of tattoos, a wholehearted acceptance of gay relationships, the distinct possibility of a same-sex marital status, the
importance of saving the environment through sustainability, making dreams come true in all arenas of life, and, ultimately,
love and affection.
Coca-Cola serves up
gay-friendly ad for all genders, generations. Soft drinks maker Coca-Cola Co has launched a gay-friendly ad
featuring a brother and sister vying for the attention of a handsome pool boy in the campaign that has won praise for
diversity and inclusion. "Sibling rivalry never looked more inclusive," Out Magazine said of the commercial that
debuted last week. Marketing Week also approved. While gay-themed movies and television shows are commonplace,
advertising has been slower to embrace same-sex couples, especially among marquee brands.
If Child Sex
Is More Common Among Gay Men, Are We Okay With That? At some point we are going to have to address two
horrifying subtexts from two recent public pseudo-scandals: one, is there a child sex problem in the gay male
community? Two, is our society essentially tolerant of it? That seems to be the nauseatingly reasonable
conclusion one could reach after the events of the past week involving provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos and actor-activist
George Takei.
Our Hawkish
'World War T' Elites. It never seems to occur to these elites that the Obama administration badly overreached
by effectively federalizing bathroom and locker room policy. Do they really think that it's so obvious that people
should agree to let sexually mature teenage males into the bathroom and locker room with their daughters? Do they
really think that this is the proper role for the federal government?
DNC
Transgender Spox Turns Into Stuttering Mess When Tucker Asks About Science. "Let's move from the politics to
the science," Carlson said to Zac Petkanas, Democratic National Committee senior advisor, launching into a series of
questions about the implications of allowing people to determine their sex. "There's no biological anchor to sex
anymore. It's all determined by the individual," he said. "So my obvious question for you is, how do I know if a
person's male or female? Is there some absolute standard people have to meet to be male or female, other than what they
say?" "One's gender identity is enough to show what gender they are," Petkanas replied.
I'm
Sorry, But Caitlyn Jenner Is a Man Wearing a Dress. I do not write these words lightly, and there is not an
ounce of mockery or, God forbid, hatred in my heart when I say that Caitlyn Jenner is a man wearing a dress. I am
simply speaking the plain and obvious truth, as politically incorrect as that truth might be right now. [...] So then, to
avoid all ambiguity: No, you do not get to choose your gender; no, gender is not determined by the level of your
personal enlightenment; no, your gender does not change simply because you announce that it has changed; and no, it is not
good science to allow people to change their sexual identity on their birth certificates. In fact, there is nothing
scientific about that at all.
Why doesn't anyone want to wrestle with a girl who
takes male hormones? A question for my female readers: if you took male hormones, would you have trouble
finding anyone to wrestle with you? It's not an idle question. In Texas a young girl wrestler who is taking male
hormones is prevented from wrestling with boys, and is forced to wrestle with other girls. But even the girls don't
want to wrestle with the "bearded lady", leaving no one at all to tussle with her hunky masculine feminine body.
Bathroom
Humor: For mainstream media, the transcending issue is transgender people. There were scores of pressing queries for the
White House press corps to put to presidential spokesman Sean Spicer at Wednesday's [2/22/107] daily briefing: President Trump's new
immigration restrictions, relations with Mexico, China and Russia, tax reform, ObamaCare, the fight against Islamic terror. So what
was the first question from the D.C.-based journalists in attendance? Bathrooms. As Bellwether noted last week, several
state legislatures were dismayed, during the closing year of the Obama administration, to receive a letter from the Departments of Justice
and Education instructing them to let students who claim to be transgender use whatever bathrooms, locker rooms and showers they want, based
solely on which gender they feel they are. States that refused to comply were threatened with a cutoff of federal funds.
When Is a
Fact Not a Fact? The alt-left has been hard at work trying to undermine our confidence in the facts. They
want us to ignore the facts, to refuse to let the facts or the results obtained by an experiment or by the market influence
our judgment. This is the first step toward mind control. Today, they have convinced a large number of people
that a human being with XY chromosomes and a male genital apparatus is — if he so believes — a
female. If you accept that, you are on the way to accepting that beliefs supersede reality.
Why
are effeminate men attracted to electric cars? I think, like some ladies, effeminate men want a car that's
small and petite. Electric cars are much smaller than normal gas-powered vehicles in the same price range. They
often have smaller steering wheels, so men with smaller hands can more easily grip them. Another factor is that
effeminate men are used to being cowed by more aggressive, masculine men, and their choice of car also reflects that.
They choose a little lightweight vehicle, which, if it wants to survive, has to wiggle out of the way of larger cars (driven
by masculine men) in traffic. Effeminate men, used to being dominated in person, prefer a car that allows them to also
be dominated in traffic.
Judge
Who Will Rule on Trump Travel Order Won ACLU 'LGBT Award'. Judge Michelle T. Friedland, who is on the three-judge panel
that will rule on President Donald Trump's executive order aimed at stopping terrorists from traveling to the United States, won the ACLU
of Southern California's LGBT Award in 2009, according to the Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont. "She received the
President's Pro Bono Service Award in 2013 from the State Bar of California and the LGBT Award from the American Civil Liberties Union of
Southern California in 2009," Leahy said in the U.S. Senate on April 10, 2014, stating his approval of Friedland's confirmation to the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit.
DNC
boots candidate from chairman's race for criticizing Ellison's Islamic faith. The Democratic National Committee
is kicking a candidate out of the chairmanship race after he told The Hill that Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) should not
be the party's next leader because he is a Muslim. In a Jan. 5 email to The Hill, Vincent Tolliver, a former House
candidate in Arkansas, said that Ellison, the first Muslim elected to Congress, should not be chairman because of Islamic
positions on homosexuality. "His being a Muslim is precisely why DNC voters should not vote for him," Tolliver wrote.
"Muslims discriminate against gays. Islamic law is clear on the subject, and being gay is a direct violation of it.
In some Muslim countries, being gay is a crime punishable by death."
California
Lawmakers Want 'Third Gender Option' for Drivers' Licenses. Legislation introduced in California would create a
third gender option on drivers' licenses and expedite the process for individuals to change their sex on their birth
certificate without undergoing a sex change. The "Gender Recognition Act," sponsored by state senators Toni Atkins of
San Diego and Scott Weiner of San Francisco, would add "nonbinary" to the list of male and female genders on state
identification documents.
LGBT
groups want halt to Utah school laws involving homosexuality talk in schools. A pair of gay rights advocacy

The
accused pedophile behind the 'bathroom bills'. Accused pedophile, "mega-Obama-bundler" and long-time prominent
fixture of the radical left, Terry Bean, is responsible for the bathroom bills sweeping America. If not for Bean's
"affluenza," it is quite likely that the 68-year-old would be in prison today for allegedly having sex with a 15-year-old boy
in an Oregon hotel room in 2013 with his then-lover Kiah Lawson, who was 25 at the time. As reported at Oregonlive,
Bean "had offered the boy at least $200,000 to settle the case." Terry Bean is the co-founder of several radical groups
posing as civil rights organizations. One of these organizations, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), created the template
for the bathroom bill ordinances sweeping the nation.
Lesbian
couple hired to co-pastor D.C. church. A historic church in the heart of the nation's capital has hired a
married lesbian couple as co-pastors. Calvary Baptist Church in northwest D.C. announced the hiring of Sally Sarratt
and Maria Swearingen on Jan. 8 during morning worship, where they were approved by the congregation. "We have found it so
easy to fall in love with Calvary and its longstanding commitment to be a voice of justice and compassion for those who perpetually
find the wholeness of their humanity disregarded and maligned," the pastors said in a press release issued by the church.

Queer Activist Arrested In Murder Of Woman At UC-Berkeley. A radical left-wing activist who attends the
University of California, Berkeley is the prime suspect in a fatal stabbing, and all one of his friends cares about is that
he's labeled by his preferred pronoun in news articles covering the crime. Pablo Gomez Jr., 24, is suspected of
stabbing one woman to death in Berkeley on Friday [1/6/2017] and injuring another in a separate incident. He was
arrested by police in Burbank on Saturday afternoon [1/7/2017].
IBM
unveils rainbow logo in solidarity with LGBT community. IBM has unveiled a new logo that incorporates the rainbow pride
flag as a show of solidarity with the LGBT community. The logo will be used in conjunction with diversity-focused IBM programs and
initiatives, BM's Chief Diversity Officer Lindsay-Rae McIntyre said in a news release Friday [1/6/2017]. She said the new symbol is
a demonstration of the company's continued advocacy for nondiscrimination workplace policies.
Researchers
splashed out £50,000 of taxpayers' on study into toilet signs that won't offend transgender users. A
£50,000 study into public toilets has recommended scrapping the use of 'ladies' and 'gents' as they might offend
transgender users. Researchers suggested the 'discriminatory' terms could be replaced with 'toilets with urinals' and
'toilets without urinals'. Meanwhile facilities for disabled people could be described as 'larger toilets with grab bars',
according to the Sun.
Transgender
man sues Catholic hospital in Paterson for refusing hysterectomy. A transgender man sued a Roman Catholic hospital in New Jersey on
Thursday [1/5/2017] after he says it cited religion in refusing to allow his surgeon to perform a hysterectomy procedure he said was medically
necessary as part of his gender transition.
The Editor says...
To prove that such an operation is "medically necessary," one would first have to prove that his/her sex-change was necessary. Indeed,
it is not necessary. It is a choice that he/she made. Any controversy resulting from that choice was completely avoidable.
Moreover, there are lots of other hospitals in New Jersey from which he/she can freely choose.
Obama's
homosexual bundler arrested for child rape. A "bundler" is someone who not just donates money to a politician
or political campaign, but solicits and "bundles" donations from other donors into a substantial sum. As such, bundlers
perform an important service for politicians. If a "bundler" for Trump is arrested for pedophilia, it would be all over
the MSM, aka the Fake Media.
Christianity
101: Why Transgenderism and Homosexuality Are Incompatible With the Faith. It is amazing how many people want
to selectively quote a Bible they disagree with and use a Lord they don't believe in to decry Christians standing for their
faith. But the reality is that no matter how many times people try to twist the Greek and Hebrew, the truth is that
transgenderism and homosexuality are not compatible with Christianity any more than any other sin is. And it is for a
very basic reason: God does not change.
Psychiatry
Professor: 'Transgenderism' Is Mass Hysteria Similar To 1980s-Era Junk Science. Consider the remarkable
phenomenon of transgenderism. A disorder of gender identity that afflicts a minuscule number of Americans has become a
polarizing cultural cause celebre. Its influence — in capturing public attention and demanding social
change — has been extraordinary, out of all proportion to the numbers of the gender-dissatisfied. While the
political left has fully embraced the transgender agenda as a "civil right" opposed by only the bigoted and hateful, many
people see the movement as a concerted attack on traditional social mores and customs, an "in your face" assault on
conventional standards, practices, and morality. Clearly, the transgender phenomenon is the tip of the spear of the
LGBT movement, greatly energized by the Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage that includes in the definition of
liberty the right of people to "define and express their identity."
There Are No
Homosexuals or Transgenders. We first heard that homosexuals were born that way, just like heterosexuals are
born with desires for those of the opposite sex. While numerous scientific studies have been done to find a genetic
link, nothing is conclusive. And even if there were a genetic link, it would not mean that the behavior was either
normal or moral. There are males and females. People who engage in same-sex sexuality do not become a new sexual
category. There is no third gender. The same is true of people who identify as transgender. It's all made
up. These new categories of gender and sexuality are social constructs. How would genetics explain
bisexuality? Where are the genetic markers for men who "identify" as women, and women who "identify" as men?
Again, there are no genetic markers.
All the Queen's Men. [Scroll
down] What do the leading men in Hillary Clinton's campaign have in common? Quite a lot: [...] Some of these men see women as sex
objects first and foremost, while others support policies that do so. At the same time, gays tend to value women only as breeders, not
human beings. Gays who seek children to adorn their lives choose to abandon women completely when it comes to the one, central biological
truth that requires a wonderful level of intimacy: conception. Instead they have found ways through medical and political science to
declare themselves independent of the sex that horrifies them so. Women are objects of scorn and ridicule, not love or relationships.
Gay
cops investigated for hosting 'breeding' sex parties for teens. The arrest of a police sergeant's live-in
boyfriend has reportedly launched a multi-agency probe into allegations that gay cops in upstate New York may have hosted or
participated in sex parties attended by teens not old enough to drink booze or give consent. The Times Union reports
that Schenectady police Sgt. Jonathan E. Moore, 35, was at an auto dealership last month in Colonie, NY, when his
boyfriend, Anthony Aubin, 27, was arrested after trying to use a counterfeit check to buy a 2016 Jaguar coupe for $92,000,
according to arrest records. Aubin's arrest has since triggered a broader investigation into allegations that gay
officers may have hosted "breeding parties." In reference to gay sex, the term "breeding" generally does not refer to
propagation of the species.
A
Flight Attendant Did Not Bring AIDS to the U.S. [Scroll down] It was against this culture war backdrop
that the AIDS epidemic's "Patient Zero" was first identified — a French-Canadian flight attendant named Gaetan
Dugas, who allegedly carried the HIV virus with him on a flight to the United States. He was to become known as the
first person to transmit the disease to others in the United States. But, as we learned in a startling study published
Wednesday in Nature, this young man was almost certainly not "Patient Zero." In fact, the Nature study said, there was
likely no "Patient Zero" in the AIDS epidemic in America at all.
Forced
Transgender Boy Quickly Returns To Normal After Removal From Mother's Care. A seven-year-old boy has been
removed from his mother's care by the high court, after he was found to be suffering "significant emotional harm" due to his
mother raising him as a girl. The judge in the case slammed social services who had simply accepted that the boy should
be treated as a girl. The High Court judge hearing the case, Mr Justice Hayden, told the court that he believed the
mother had been "absolutely convinced" that the boy "perceived himself as a girl" and was therefore determined to treat him
as a girl, according to reports.
Hey
Catholics, This Is What Team Hillary Really Thinks Of You. [Scroll down] Had this been conservatives
talking about some liberal cause celebre, the media and Planet Clinton would be feasting on it and calling for the heads of
all involved. Imagine for a moment if you replaced the actors with conservatives and Catholicism and the conversation
topic with Black Lives Matter, LGTB rights, or women. The rebukes would come fast and furious, and with wicked
vengeance. Another email shows Podesta discussing the groups he founded to incite rebellion and schism within the Church,
when confronted with the suggestion of a "Catholic Spring" against church doctrine and leadership in favor of "gender equality."
The
Facts about Transgenderism. When transgenders can prove to me that they have either gotten rid of the "Y"
chromosome (male-to-female) or implanted the "Y" chromosome (female-to-male), then they will truly be "transgendered."
Until then, they are transvestites, pure and simple. They may dress as they wish, look as they wish, and even be called
by others as they wish, but I will not allow them to force me to participate in this charade — to lie and say they
are transgendered when they are not.
Up to 20% Have Regret; Sex Changes Are Not Effective,
say Researchers. The review of more than 100 international medical studies of "post-operative" transsexuals
finds up to 20% regret transitioning and no conclusive evidence was found that shows gender reassignment surgery improves the
lives of transsexuals, with many people remaining severely distressed and even suicidal after the operation, wrote David
Batty in the UK Guardian.
Drop The T From LGBT.
Transgender people have high rates of psychological problems that contribute to their identity expression and
victimization. The rest of the LGBT crowd should consider how that reflects on them.
'Gay
gene'? No scientific evidence for it. Two distinguished scholars at Johns Hopkins University have released a
lengthy, three-part report concluding that there's not sufficient evidence to prove homosexuals and transgenders are born in
that condition — in other words, there is no "gay gene."

But totalitarianism means there must be no escape from the official ideology, no matter where you cast your eyes.
Everything
You Have Been Told about Gayness and Gender Is Wrong. We have been told over and over again that gays,
lesbians, and transgenders are "born that way." Science, in fact, makes no such claim. Never has. In fact,
social science, biological science, and every branch of medical science and psychology contradict this claim. The New
Atlantis, A Journal of Technology and Society, has produced a remarkable, far-reaching landmark study which offers a
summary and an up-to-date explanation of research on sexual orientation and gender identity from the biological,
psychological, and social sciences, covering nearly 200 peer-reviewed studies.
Church
of England Faces Possible Split over Homosexuality. The Church of England is looking at a possible split over
issues including homosexuality and the church moving further away from Bible. The split may not be immediate, but if
the church continues its liberal stance, changes are expected to be made, according to a recent report from The
Telegraph. The creation of a new "shadow synod" would vow to uphold tradition. Representatives from about a dozen
congregations plan to meet in a church hall in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, later this week to develop a possible alternative
church in England. The new alliance is said to be viewed as a "church within a church," but the founders have not
ruled out full separation.
DOJ
police-training video on transgender interactions highlights public bathroom complaint. The Justice Department
has released a training video meant to be used by law enforcement to demonstrate best practices for interactions with members
of the transgender community — including a scenario that involves a complaint about public bathroom use. The
training video emphasizes that, when interacting with transgender individuals, officers should keep their questions relevant
to the report or investigation at hand and remain courteous. When in doubt, the video says, an officer should ask about
the person's gender pronoun preference.
Psychiatrist
says Puberty Blockers Can Help Young Transgenders 'Fit In'. According to a Kaiser Health News report, using
puberty suppressing drugs not only prevents children from developing secondary sex characteristics, it also can make it far
easier for transgender teens to "fit in."
The Editor says...
If you pump enough psychotropic drugs into a little kid, you could probably convince him that he's a chicken, but that
doesn't mean he'd actually be a chicken. Similarly, a boy doesn't turn into a girl just because you train
him to be a girl.
Almost
Everything the Media Tell You About Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Is Wrong. A major new report,
published today [8/22/2016] in the journal The New Atlantis, challenges the leading narratives that the media has pushed
regarding sexual orientation and gender identity. Co-authored by two of the nation's leading scholars on mental health
and sexuality, the 143-page report discusses over 200 peer-reviewed studies in the biological, psychological, and social
sciences, painstakingly documenting what scientific research shows and does not show about sexuality and gender. The
major takeaway, as the editor of the journal explains, is that "some of the most frequently heard claims about sexuality and
gender are not supported by scientific evidence."
Meningitis
outbreaks among gay men have experts puzzled. "It is perplexing," said Dr. Rachel Civen, a medical
epidemiologist at L.A. County's Department of Public Health. Of the 13 cases of meningitis this year in L.A.
County — excluding Long Beach, which has its own health department — seven were gay men. There
were only 12 meningitis cases in the county in all of 2015, one of which was a gay or bisexual man. In Long Beach,
there have been six meningitis cases this year, half of which were gay men. Last year there were no meningitis cases in
the city, according to city officials. Civen, who has tracked the county's meningitis cases for a decade, said it was
"pretty striking" that half or more of the cases in both jurisdictions were gay men.
The Editor says...
This should come as no surprise: The wages of sin is death.
The
Perversion of Science and Medicine, Part II. [Scroll down] Anyone also vaguely familiar with the politically protected disease AIDS
can furnish another overt example of politicized science and medicine. With AIDS, the government, via its agencies, particularly the CDC and other
subsidiary public health departments throughout the nation, have tortured statistics until they have falsely confessed, and have promoted media hype and
sensationalism as to force the viewpoint that heterosexuals in the U.S. are as much at risk as homosexuals and illicit drug users for contracting the
dreaded HIV virus, and that "we are all at risk of AIDS." "Why?" you ask. Because government agencies want to be able to obtain more and more
funding from a frightened and more empathetic taxpayer and perpetuate and replicate their bureaucracies faster, not to mention also the desire to change
the cultural perspective of this tragic (but social) disease in American society. All this, mind you, despite the fact research and development
monies were (and are) being spent on AIDS more so than with any other disease including breast cancer which AIDS funding surpasses by a margin of
nearly 3:1, although breast cancer in the last decade has killed almost three times as many people.

Connecticut
State Government: Believing There Are Only Two Genders Is 'Genderism'. According the Connecticut Department of Children
and Families (DCF), which published an LGBT glossary of more than 250 terms, the belief that there are only two genders —
male and female — should be treated as "genderism." The guide, which was published as part of the DCF's Safe Harbors
Project and was last updated July 7, defines "genderism" as: "The system of belief that there are only two genders (men and
women) and that gender is inherently tied to one's sex assigned at birth. It holds cisgender people as superior to transgender
people, and punishes or excludes those who don't conform to society's expectations of gender."
Transgender
woman accused of videotaping 18-year-old in Target fitting room. A transgender woman accused of videotaping an
18-year-old in a Target fitting room admitted to detectives that she had made videos in the past of women undressing, according
to court documents obtained by EastIdahoNews.com. Shauna Smith, a transgender woman, is being charged as Sean Smith with

Transgender
woman arrested in voyeurism incident at Idaho Target. An Idaho man who told police he identifies as a woman was
arrested Tuesday [7/12/2016] after allegedly taking photos of a woman in a Target fitting room, officials said. Sean Patrick Smith,
43, was allegedly dressed in women's clothing when he entered the fitting room in the women's section of the store in Ammon
on Monday, East Idaho News reported. Smith, also known as Shauna Patricia Smith, then began taking pictures of a woman
in the changing stall next to him, police said. "The woman was begging for help as she chased the man out the door," a
witness told East Idaho News. "She kept saying she wanted those pictures deleted."
Transgender
Person Arrested For Taking Pictures Of Woman In Target Dressing Room. Idaho police arrested a man — who identifies as a
transgender woman — on one count of felony voyeurism Tuesday [7/12/2016] after he took pictures of a woman while she was changing clothes
in a Target dressing room, the Post Register reported. Sheriff's deputies arrested 43-year-old Sean Patrick Smith, who reportedly identifies
as Shauna Patricia Smith, the day after he was spotted reaching over the changing room wall with a cell phone taking pictures of a woman who was
trying on clothes. The victim confronted Smith, who then ran out of the store.

D.C.
Has Highest Transgender Identification Rate in Nation. Washington, D.C. has the highest rate of transgender-identifying residents in
the country, according to a recently released study by the The Williams Institute, which is associated with the University of California/Los Angeles
School of Law. Of the estimated 1.4 million transgender-identifying individuals in the United States, about 14,550 — or
2.77 percent of the total — reside in D.C., according to the think tank, which specializes in "sexual orientation and gender
identity law". The District of Columbia "had a notably high percentage of transgender-identified adults (2.8%) and is considered an
outlier due to its unique geographic (urban) and demographic profile," according to the study findings' endnotes.
Lesbian
Couple Adopts Young Boy And Forces Him To Be Homosexual. A lesbian couple adopted a little boy and they are now
forcing him to become homosexual, regardless of the fact that he does not like it. This is absolute child abuse and
should be responded to by the authorities of the state. Of course, that will not happen because the elites of this
nation are amongst the antichrist forces.

other dating sites. The suit alleged that the sites were in violation of California's anti-discrimination law.
Survey finds excess health problems
in lesbians, gays, bisexuals. For the first time since its launch in 1957, the National Health Interview Survey in 2013 and 2014 included a
question about sexual orientation. With nearly 69,000 participants, the survey revealed that lesbian, gay and bisexual adults "were more likely to
report impaired physical and mental health, heavy alcohol consumption, and heavy cigarette use, potentially due to the stressors that (they) experience
as a result of interpersonal and structural discrimination," researchers wrote online June 28 in JAMA Internal Medicine.
Legal
Experts: Transgender Pronoun Mandates Are Unconstitutional. Government mandates that force people to use
a transgender person's preferred name and pronoun are unconstitutional restrictions on the First Amendment right to free
speech, legal experts say. As the transgender debate moves further and further to the front of the public
consciousness, government agencies are increasingly implementing policies that require people to call transgender persons by
their preferred name and pronouns, regardless of their biological sex. In December, for example, New York City's
Commission on Human Rights passed a gender identity policy threatening fines up to $250,000 for intentionally using the wrong
name or pronoun to refer to a transgender person, even if they prefer gender-neutral pronouns like "ze."

Sodomy is not love.
How
Long Before God Gives America the Sodom and Gomorrah Fate It Is Begging For? In the biblical story of Sodom and
Gomorrah, Abraham was told by God that his town would be destroyed due to the decadence prevalent there. Abraham
bargained with God for the righteous and it finally came down God agreeing He would not destroy the city for the sake of
10 men if Abraham could find them. When he could not find any righteous men (Gen. 18) Lot took his family and
fled to the surrounding hills as God rained fire and brimstone down on the evil residents of the towns. I am at the point
of wondering how many righteous men it will take for God to spare this nation the same fate. 1 Corinthians 6:9 says
that homosexuals and sodomites will not enter Heaven. I don't know how many righteous men it will take for God to spare the
USA but we are a nation of more than 330 million so the number will be huge I would imagine.
Oregon judge allows
person to change gender from female to 'non-binary'. An Oregon judge ruled Friday [6/10/2016] that a transgender individual can legally
change their sex to "non-binary" rather than male or female in what is believed to be an unprecedented ruling. The Oregonian reported that
Multnomah County Circuit Court Judge Amy Holmes Hehn legally changed Jamie Shupe's, 52, sex from female to non-binary. [...] Shupe is an Army
veteran who retired in 2000 a sergeant first class. She began transitioning in 2013 while living in Pittsburg and knew that neither the
male or female gender label fit.
Federal judge rules
California transgender inmates must get some female items. A federal judge ruled Thursday [6/9/2016] that California prison officials must let
transgender inmates have more female-oriented commissary items including nightgowns, robes, sandals, scarves and necklaces as part of a settlement that will
make the stat the first to pay for an inmate's sex reassignment surgery. California agreed in August to provide some items to transgender inmates who
are housed in male prisons, aside from providing surgery to 56-year-old Shiloh Quine. U.S. Magistrate Judge Nandor Vadas decided that the policy didn't
go far enough. He said transgender inmates housed in men's prisons should have many of the same items provided to female inmates. Shiloh's
attorneys argued that the state was keeping some items from transgender prisoners "based solely upon gender norms" rather than security concerns.

Cowpoke
in hot pants stirs transgender uproar at Texas BBQ joint. When it comes to eating at a barbecue joint there's
an unspoken code of conduct. You don't order salad, you don't use a fork and if you're a cross-dressing cowboy with an
affinity for stiletto heels — you don't use the ladies room. And that brings me to a story from the pages of
the Fort Worth Star-Telegram about a small-town barbecue joint that inadvertently found itself right smack in the middle of
the big debate over transgender bathrooms.
Cross-Dressing
Cowboy Told to Stay Out of Ladies' Bathroom at Texas BBQ Joint. A Texas BBQ restaurant has made their
transgender bathroom policy abundantly clear — "No Men Allowed in Women's Bathroom." A cross-dressing cowboy truck
driver has been stirring-up trouble in the Texas BBQ joint. The trucker likes to come in dressed in a skirt or hot pants and a
blouse and six-inch stilettos. The sign in the small Texas town restaurant now politely warns, "No men allowed in the women's
bathroom please." The restaurant shares the building with a Texaco service station.
A New Transvaluation.
[Scroll down] Today, the great muddled thought processes of the indoctrinated are presented with a multiplicity of
genders before them like some sumptuous buffet: a veritable feast wherein an emancipated humanity might pick and choose their
erotic flavor of the day. Mood and inclination will now trump nature as we become sexual flies of a season, owing no
quarter to God or man as our sexual identities spin like a carnival wheel — alighting on a moment's temporal
fancy. The only problem with this elitist idyll is that any man possessing a modicum of good sense knows this is a
sham. Those 31 hypothesized New York City genders are merely homosexuality's obfuscationist window dressing, and it
makes little substantial difference whether an aging decathlete parades about in a push-up bra or a pathetic wretch submits
his flesh to the horrors of surgical mutilation.
CDC:
High Rate of HIV Among Transgender Women. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says HIV
infection rates are high among transgender women in the United States, and particularly high among black transgender women,
compared to other groups. On its website page "HIV Among Transgender People," the CDC cites a systematic review of
various studies which showed that 28% of all transgender women had HIV. (A transgender woman is a biological male who
identifies as a female.) Also, "56% of black/African American transgender women had positive HIV test results compared
to 17% of white or 16% of Hispanic/Latina transgender women," said the CDC. Black transgender women "are more likely to
have HIV than transgender women of other races/ethnicities," said the health agency.
Black Lives Matter's LGBTQ
Agenda. While the media cover Black Lives Matter's complaints of racism and police brutality, they largely
underreport the movement's campaign to normalize all permutations of sexual proclivity. The "Guiding Principles" on

Men Dressing Like Dogs, Creating 'Pup Play Kink'. A documentary about to air in Great Britain exposes more
boundary-pushing by the gay world — men who like to dress up like dogs and be "handled" by their owners in
so-called "pup play." The "Secret Life of Human Pups" is a "sympathetic look at the world of pup play", according to an
article in The Guardian. It is said to be a movement that grew out of the bondage and domination world and, with the
internet, "has exploded in the last 15 years."

incurring six-figure fines under rules implemented by the city's Commission on Human Rights.
CDC:
Southerners' 'Racism' And 'Homophobia' Cause Gay Men's High HIV Rates. An issue brief published on Tuesday by
the U.S. Centers for Disease Control claimed that that Southerners' "racism," and "homophobia" may be causing high HIV rates
in the South that are disproportionately high among African-Americans and homosexuals. According to the issue brief,
Southern states have 37 percent of the U.S. population and 44 percent of all HIV infected people living in America.
HIV rates among gay men and African-Americans account for the lion's share of those infected with HIV.

(WHO). Denmark, however, for its part has "run out of patience" with that idea, and has instead opted to forego the
WHO's classification, saying that its definition of transgender is "stigmatizing" and "discriminatory," per reports from
the Independent and Mic.

Call Me Brucelyn??
The CBS News affiliate in Los Angeles reported yesterday [5/12/2016] that Bruce Caitlyn Jenner
is having second thoughts about her transition and might possibly switch teams back to being a Bruce. A Jenner spokesperson
ridiculed the report, which was enough for Snopes to declare the report categorically false. I don't see why Jenner should be
forced to choose one or the other. Why not both? Why not alternate depending on the circumstances, such as when there's
a long line for the Women's restroom at sporting events? That would he an extremely handy time to be "Bruce" again, for
at least five minutes.

Sad Video Highlights the Contradictions and Tragedy of the Transgender Moment. Writing in the Gospel

rather than vice versa?" That's the course of action for the transitioning person. The course of action for their loved
ones is substantially different. In essence, the Caitlyn Jenners are saying to their spouses or paramours, "I'm now a
woman, and that makes you a lesbian."
Feds Spend $35.7
Million on LGBT Anti-Smoking Ads. The Food and Drug Administration is using young lesbians, drag queens, and
transgender individuals in a $36 million advertising campaign to encourage the LGBT community to quit smoking. The
government launched the "This Free Life" campaign Monday [5/2/2016], which encourages young people to "find their own truth"
and not smoke cigarettes. "This Free Life is a campaign that proudly celebrates the lives of the lesbian, gay,
bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community," the campaign's website states. "We wave our colors high and seek to
improve LGBT people's health by encouraging tobacco-free lifestyles."

Caught Taking Pictures of 13-Year-Old Girls at Target! The story involves a transgender woman, James Goebel,
who was recently caught taking pictures of young teen girls while using the restroom at a Target store in Dallas, Teas.
One of the victims, said she heard someone's iPhone camera sapping while she was in the restroom. She looked under the
stall and saw a camera phone placed underneath it. She quickly ran out to tell her father, who kept the door shut until
police arrived. When the police arrived, they arrested James Goebel, 28, and searched her phone. In the phone,
they found 700 pictures of young girls in the bathroom. The dates of the pictured ranged from the past five months.

Times 'Transgender' Men Abused Women And Children In Bathrooms. The leftist push to force both private and
public entities to open their bathrooms and locker-rooms to transgender people has recently exploded in the media. The
governor of North Carolina's decision to reject such an ordinance by signing HB 2 into law has taken over the spotlight.
The left has cast the law as bigoted, along with all those who agree it. Baseball legend Curt Schilling was even fired
from his job at ESPN for expressing opposition to the ordinance and proclaiming that "a man is a man no matter what. One
conservative argument against the leftist push goes as follows: some men will abuse the bathrooms and locker-rooms open
to gender identity rather than biology by falsely proclaiming womanhood in order to gain access to women and children for
motives of malice. Such facilities could become easy-access breading grounds for predators. Thus, it would be
common sense to keep the facilities separated based on biology rather than identity to protect women and children.
The
real reason why the North Carolina 'bathroom bill' debate is center stage. Thursday [4/21/2016], Donald Trump
disagreed with North Carolina's "bathroom bill," which makes it illegal for transgender individuals to use bathrooms they
feel correspond to their gender, rather than the one corresponding to their genetic gender. Senator Ted Cruz
immediately attacked Trump's position, asking whether America has gone "stark raving nuts" to let men who consider themselves
female to use bathrooms also being used by little girls. The use of bathrooms by transgender individuals has come
center stage in the U.S. presidential campaign for a reason: The bathroom debate is really a debate about the
fundamental way we Americans will define any truth — whether as something deeply felt by an individual, or
something scientifically demonstrable and verifiable.
Drop The T From LGBT.
The post-marriage culture war is asymmetrical in the group known as LGBT. Gay, lesbian, and bisexual activists have carried
the rainbow banner for transgenders for issues that truly matter, such as employment and housing. Now the time has come
for a genuine sanity check for them to stop enabling kookier parts of the trans agenda. The current bathroom policy
debate illuminates the growing gap between the concerns of the transgender community and of the LGB community. Perhaps
those who favor gay marriage do not want any part of enabling pedophiles in wigs having easier access to kids in bathrooms.
The
accused pedophile behind the 'bathroom bills'. Accused pedophile, "mega-Obama-bundler" and long-time prominent
fixture of the radical left, Terry Bean, is responsible for the bathroom bills sweeping America. If not for Bean's
"affluenza," it is quite likely that the 68-year-old would be in prison today for allegedly having sex with a 15-year-old boy
in an Oregon hotel room in 2013 with his then-lover Kiah Lawson, who was 25 at the time. As reported at Oregonlive,
Bean "had offered the boy at least $200,000 to settle the case. Terry Bean is the co-founder of several radical groups
posing as civil rights organizations. One of these organizations, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), created the template
for the bathroom bill ordinances sweeping the nation.
Boycott
Target underway after superstore declares men can use women's bathrooms. After Target announced that it would
welcome "transgender team members and guests to use the restroom or fitting room facility that corresponds with their gender
identity," the American Family Association is now asking customers to boycott the superstore in a new petition. "The
American Family Association is calling for a boycott of Target after the retail giant said it would allow men to use the
women's restrooms and dressing rooms in their stores," the petition states. "This means a man can simply say he "feels
like a woman today" and enter the women's restroom... even if young girls or women are already in there."
Over
350,000 sign petition against Target's bathroom policy. Target's new bathroom policy is causing some customers
to boycott the retail giant. This week, Target announced that transgender people were welcome to use bathrooms and
fitting rooms that corresponded with the gender they identified as. The news came in wake of North Carolina's
controversial bathroom law that said transgender people must use the public restroom of their gender of birth.
DC
Wants Residents To 'Report' Private Businesses Over Gender-Neutral Bathroom Law. As the debate intensifies
nationally over which bathrooms transgender people should use, the District of Columbia's city government is asking people to
report private businesses that have single-occupancy bathrooms that aren't "gender-neutral. "If you see a public
bathroom with one stall that is not gender-neutral, just tweet us the business name and location using #safebathroomsDC, or
fill out our five question form," states the website of the District of Columbia. "It takes just 20 seconds to play a
part in making DC a more enjoyable place for transgender and other communities! A 2006 D.C. law requires businesses and
other places with single-occupancy public restrooms to change signs that say "men" and "women" to just "restroom."

and surgical impersonation of the opposite sex is normal" is nothing more than "child abuse. Dr. Land, president
of Southern Evangelical Seminary and former five-term member of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, added
that the LGBT activists and lawmakers who push transgender and transsexual policies are abusing a "whole generation of our
nation's children" and it is up to "clear-thinking adults to stop them."
WaPo/Daily
Beast: Transgender People Committing Suicide Over NC's 'Anti-Trans' Law. Persons afflicted with transgenderism across
America are now far more likely to commit suicide, according to left-wing outpost The Daily Beast (TDB), following North Carolina's passing
of House Bill 2 (HB2). HB2 mandates that multiple occupancy bathrooms and changing facilities administered by schools and public
agencies restrict access based on biological sex as defined on a person's birth certificate. Blaming GOP lawmakers for the alleged
increase in calls made to Trans Lifeline — described as a crisis hotline for transgender people — TDB's Samantha
Allen describes HB2 as "life-threatening" to transgender persons.
The Editor says...
The headline on the article above appears to be grossly deceptive and misleading: Nobody has committed suicide as a result of the new
law. The article says they are "far more likely to commit suicide" and the LGBTQWERTY activists claim the law is "'life-threatening' to
transgender persons," but no names are given. If there were any such suicides, details surely would have been included in the article.
Between 30 and
45 percent of transgender people report having attempted suicide anyway, law or no law. It is the deviant lifestyle itself that
is life-threatening.
You
Will Be Compelled to Agree. The rules of bigotry according to the left represent a constantly shifting
kaleidoscope of nonsense. This week, we learned that if you don't want your small daughter peeing next to a giant man
who thinks he is a woman, you are a bigot; if you are a woman who is uncomfortable with a man who thinks he is a woman
whipping out his male genitalia to urinate in front of you, you are a bigot; if you are a religious person who doesn't want
to participate in an activity you consider sinful, you are a bigot.
Federal
Court: Schools May Not Provide Separate Bathrooms Based on Biology. On Tuesday [4/19/2016], the Fourth
Circuit Court ruled against a Virginia school district that sought to accommodate a transgender student while also protecting
the privacy rights of other students. The court concluded that Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 —
which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex — should be interpreted as prohibiting discrimination on the
basis of gender identity, as a Department of Education letter suggested in 2015. The ruling allows a lawsuit brought
by a transgender student to proceed.
Retailer Target says transgender
people can use bathroom of their choice. Target Corp said on Tuesday [4/19/2016] that transgender employees and
customers could use the bathroom that corresponds with their gender identity, becoming the first big retailer to weigh in on
an issue at the center of a heated national debate. The move came after North Carolina last month became the first U.S.
state to require transgender people to use restrooms and changing rooms in schools and other public facilities that match
their sex at birth rather than their gender identity. Lawmakers in some other states have also floated similar laws.
Hoyer
Okay with Biological Men Using Women's Restrooms. House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) said on Tuesday [4/19/2016] that
people "ought to be able to use the restroom of the gender they identify with. CNSNews.com asked Hoyer at his weekly meeting with
reporters at the U.S. Capitol: "There has been a great deal of controversy lately about North Carolina's bathroom law. Do you
believe that biological males should be allowed to use the ladies' room in federal facilities and parks around the country?" Hoyer
did not directly answer the yes or no question, but instead stated his "position" on the issue.
Turning
American Law Upside Down for the Transgendered. Our nation's centuries-old commitment to free speech and
religious liberty was already under threat. But it took men wanting to use women's bathrooms and vice versa for the
Left to truly show its hand, plainly and unequivocally declaring that American legal traditions should be set ablaze.
Yesterday [4/18/2016], the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights published a "Statement Condemning Recent State Laws and Pending
Proposals Targeting the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Community" — a statement motivated by new
Mississippi laws protecting religious freedom and by North Carolina's much-discussed "bathroom law. The Commission
claims that any law requiring men and women to use bathrooms that correspond to their biological sex "jeopardizes not only
the dignity, but also the actual physical safety, of transgender people whose appearances may not match societal expectations
of the sex specified on their identification documents."
Rep.
Mark Walker: Liberals Exploiting Bathroom Bill Controversy For Political Gain. A bathroom bill, a rock star,
and competing claims of privacy have catapulted North Carolina into the center of a national debate over transgender rights.
And Rep. Mark Walker, R-N.C., says he knows why. The freshman legislator argues that Democrats are manufacturing
outrage over the law for political gain in the Tar Heel state.
God
Determines Sex, Not Legislators. There is no doubt in my mind and I am totally convinced that our society has
gone completely mad. The lack of common sense these days just boggles my mind. When someone is born they are
either a male or a female, God decides what we are, now it seems the politicians are trying to tell us what a persons
physical sex actually is. We now have states around the country trying to pass legislation to allow restrooms to be
used by people who say they" identify" with a different biological sex then they were born to. Which means that your
10 year old daughter or granddaughter will be using the same restroom as a 40 year old man, just because
that man feels like a woman that day? Is there a person out there with half a brain that thinks that is right?
Sexual
predators take advantage of transgender laws. It may not have been intended, but it was predictable. This

Lawmakers
want Census Bureau to ask about sexual orientation. A bipartisan group of lawmakers is calling on the federal
government to start counting the number of homosexuals living in the United States. The group of nearly 80 lawmakers
wrote a letter to a House Appropriations subcommittee on Tuesday, asking the U.S. Census Bureau to survey people about their
sexual orientation and gender identity. Specifically, the legislators are asking the committee, which oversees the
Census Bureau, to support the additional data collection as part of the fiscal 2017 appropriations bill.
Want
to Improve Your State? Pass an Anti-LGBT Law! [Scroll down] The truth is the only people wishing to impose their beliefs on others
are leftists. While a Christian business may choose to deny services for an event, they have no interest in denying service to an
individual. Transgender people have been using public restrooms without issue since the 1960s and there is no reason anyone should
expect their personal sense of gender to override the natural inclinations of others to use the correct bathroom in public.
Transgender people are simply not going to be discriminated against and those who feel they will be fall under the 'no shoes, no
service' concept of appropriate social behavior and expectations. No one involved on the right has even proposed criminalizing
or limiting transgender freedoms or liberty and certainly no one cares if a gay person buys from their shop. People simply
do not want to be bullied into participating in events or concepts they deeply oppose and no one wants their daughter in the
same bathroom with a man who believes wearing a dress and a wig makes him a woman.
When
Did It Become Controversial To Keep Men Out Of The Women's Bathroom? Determining what percentage of the
population is actually transgender is very difficult. For example, would Bruce Jenner have counted before he started
dressing in women's clothes or not? But, the best estimate puts transgenders at about .3% of the population.
However, if you're talking about people who've had hormones and surgery and also dress in the opposite gender's clothes as
opposed to simply "feeling like a woman," it's most certainly lower. On the other hand, roughly 50.4% of Americans
really are women. That means there are 168 women for every transgender person in America. Even if we accept
that a transgender man dressed like a woman would be embarrassed to go into a men's bathroom, doesn't it make more sense
for him to be uncomfortable than all those women?
North
Carolina AG says he won't defend law overriding local anti-discrimination rules. North Carolina's attorney general said Tuesday [3/29/2016]
that he won't defend in court a newly enacted state law preventing local governments from passing anti-discrimination rules meant to protect gay, lesbian
and transgender people. Roy Cooper made the announcement one day after a day after gay rights advocates sued the state to seek to overturn the
law. The federal lawsuit lists Cooper among the defendants because of his official position. Cooper, a Democrat who is challenging Republican
Gov. Pat McCrory in the November election, described the law as "a national embarrassment" that conflicted with his own department's
anti-discrimination rules and "will set North Carolina's economy back" if it is not repealed.
NY
Gov. Cuomo Bans State Travel to North Carolina But Encourages Cuba Visits. New York's Democratic governor banned state
travel to North Carolina this week, citing its residents' supposed lack of equal protection under the law, weeks after he announced
efforts to facilitate travel from New York to Cuba, which is ruled by a repressive communist dictatorship that routinely imprisons
political dissenters. "In New York, we believe that all people — regardless of their gender identity or sexual
orientation — deserve the same rights and protections under the law," said Gov. Andrew Cuomo in announcing a ban on
"non-essential" state travel to North Carolina. The move came in response to a new North Carolina law that restricts gendered
restrooms to people of their respective biological sexes.
American
College of Pediatricians: 'Transgender' Conditioning Is 'Child Abuse'. George Orwell famously wrote, "In a time
of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." For those tethered to biological reality, the self-evident
truth that, prior to birth, people develop either "XY" or "XX" genetic markers and, as such, are objectively, and shall forever
remain, either male or female, is as plain as blue is blue or pink is pink. Indeed, notwithstanding the politically driven
"LGBT" agenda that pretends otherwise, those who suffer with "gender dysphoria" disorder will stay, as born, either male or female,
whether or not they play dress up, sterilize themselves and destroy healthy reproductive organs. Hence, it's of little
surprise that, tragically, of those who put themselves through this imaginary "transition," 41 percent will subsequently
attempt suicide.
The
Questions Liberals Never Have to Answer. [Question #3] Why do you support legally persecuting millions of
Christians who quite correctly believe that they cannot live in accordance with their faith if they participate in a gay
wedding? Who's a worse person, a Christian cake maker who happily serves gay customers, but believes it's wrong for
her to cater a gay wedding or a gay couple that deliberately searches out a Christian cake maker who can't participate in
their wedding so they can sue her? Why should little girls be forced to share a bathroom with grown men who claim
they "feel like" women? What about their safety? What about the fact that many of them don't feel comfortable
sharing a bathroom with someone with male genitalia? Are you helping people or hurting them by falsely telling them
they can change their sex and encouraging them to mutilate themselves through surgery instead of encouraging them to get
psychiatric treatment?

Uproar
breaks out in North Carolina over 'anti-LGBTQ' law. The legislature called a special session Wednesday [3/23/2016] to void a
Charlotte ordinance that would have enabled transgender people to legally use restrooms aligned with their gender identity instead of biological
sex, and would have provided broad protections against discrimination in public accommodations in the state's largest city. The
controversial House Bill 2 now prevents the state's cities and counties from passing their own anti-discrimination rules and instead
imposes a statewide standard that leaves out sexual orientation and gender identity. The law orders public schools, government agencies
and public college campuses to designate use of multiple-occupancy bathrooms and changing facilities, such as locker rooms, by biological
sex stated on a person's birth certificate.
Indonesian
Psychiatric Association: Gays Have 'Psychiatric Problems,' Trans Have 'Mental Disorders'. The Indonesian Psychiatric Association
(IPA) has officially announced that homosexuals and bisexuals are "people with psychiatric problems," and that transgender people have "mental

Guardian, and The Christian Post. The IPA said that "people with homosexuality and bisexuality can be categorized as people with
mental problems," as reported in The Guardian. The group added that gays suffer from "physical, mental, and social problems, growth
and development, and/or life-quality problems, thus giving them risks to experience mental disorders."

nose under the tent to undermine the Christian foundation of our nation." Speaking about the gay marriage decision at the National Religious

of gay marriage. The Bible, in both the Old and New Testament is pretty firm against their way of thinking." [Video clip]

Nike ends Manny Pacquiao
contract after boxer says gays are 'worse than animals'. The US sportswear giant Nike has canceled its contract
with Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao, after he described gays as being "worse than animals." A spokesperson for the firm called
his comments "abhorrent." [...] "It's just common sense. Do you see any animals of the same sex mating? Animals are better

Stats That Destroy Liberal Narratives. [#14] "No fewer than eight major studies from around the world have
found homosexuality is not a genetic condition. Peter Sprigg of the Family Research Council says that these numerous,
rigorous studies of identical twins have now made it impossible to argue that there is a 'gay gene.' If homosexuality
were inborn and predetermined, then when one identical twin is homosexual, the other should be, as well. Yet one study
from Yale and Columbia Universities found homosexuality common to only 6.7 percent of male identical twins and
5.3 percent of female identical twins. [...]"
The
Left's Retreat to Fantasy. [Scroll down] Take, for instance, the latest left-wing crusade —
transsexuality. [...] [T]hese people are by definition badly disturbed. They are obsessed with something they cannot have,
and insist that the rest of us share in their delusion that they can have it. [...] (It should be pointed out — though
it's often overlooked — that there are a lot more men convinced they are women than the other way around.) Viewed
from the Jungian point of view — or that of any other traditional psychological school — it's undeniable [that]
transsexuals are extremely disturbed individuals in need of treatment to help them reintegrate their psyches. The record
reinforces this conclusion, from the sad case of the Dutch transsexual who handed himself over to the tender mercies of the state's
euthanasists after being transformed into a "monster," to the recent complaints of "Chaz" Bono, who bemoans "his" loneliness due to
normal women viewing him as a "freak." It's no surprise to learn that transsexuals have a 40%+ postoperative suicide rate.

The
Gay Agenda and the Real World. There's just one problem with the gay agenda: it's based on a lie. Homosexuals
are not like heterosexuals, nor is the practice of homosexuality innocuous. The single largest problem for the gay agenda is
medical science. In 2014, the CDC found that men-who-have-sex-with-men (MSM), about 1 percent of the population, accounted
for 83 percent of syphilis cases in the U.S. Syphilis, a disease that was once on the verge of eradication, is spreading like
wildfire. According to the CDC, syphilis rates "are increasing at an alarming rate." The statistics for AIDS are similar.
In 2010, MSM were responsible for 63 percent of new AIDS cases in the US. The rate of anal cancer among MSM is seventeen times
higher than among heterosexuals. It is alarming that the gay community exhibits no restraint and cannot be self-policing.
Even school children know about condoms, yet venereal diseases rage unchecked through the population of gay men. A recent report
in the medical literature found that infection rates for both gonorrhea and chlamydia are increasing among MSM. The fact that
about two-thirds of syphilis and AIDS cases occur amongst one percent of the population tells us something that is immediate and
unambiguous: that homosexuality is not an innocuous choice. What gay men do behind closed doors is fundamentally different
from what heterosexuals usually do in their bedrooms. It's also more dangerous.
Human Rights Campaign Calls on
Christian Colleges to Repent of Their Christianity. On Friday [12/18/2015], the nation's largest gay-rights organization, the Human
Rights Campaign (HRC), released a chilling report that investigates a "disturbing trend" of religious colleges' taking legal measures to exercise
their religious liberty, using waivers available to them under Title IX.
Debunking
5 Phony Statistics Liberals Love To Toss Around. [Phony statistic #4:] Ten percent of the population is gay:
In actuality, the percentage of gay Americans is tiny. The survey taken by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention asked
a simple question of 34,557 adults nationwide: "Which of the following best represents how you think of yourself?" The five
possible answers were straight, lesbian/gay, bisexual, "something else" and "I don't know the answer." Transgenders, the "T" in
LGBT, were not included. The survey found that a mere 1.6 percent of the adult population self-identifies as "lesbian/gay,"
and an even smaller 0.7 percent told interviewers they were bisexual. The bisexuals were outnumbered by the 1.1 percent
who didn't know, wouldn't answer or said they were "something else."
The tyranny of a very small but
very powerful minority. Some people actually believe that the majority rule. Nope.
Not in America. Not anymore. The Census shows that at present, the United States is 77.7% white and
that figure includes white Hispanics. Without them, it's approximately 62%. All Hispanics number 17%
and blacks around 13%. Although many Americans polled believe that the gay community is around 20%,
the actual number is 1.6% and yet the LGBT community wields enormous influence over our culture and has
succeeded in tearing down traditional mores of the nation and the world. Why? The answer is
that this demographic is extremely wealthy and has influence over many spheres in government, entertainment,
the media and industry.
The Rainbow Jihad. A Kentucky
county clerk thrown in jail. A New York state family fined thousands of dollars. An Oregon baker fined hundreds of
thousands of dollars. A decorated Iowa newspaper editor loses his job. A Washington State florist facing the loss of
her home and life savings. Soldiers court-martialed. These are but a few of the casualties of the Rainbow Jihad in
America, and there will be more. Because the endgame is not "tolerance" or "diversity" but "you will be made to care."
Our Secular Papacy & Gay
Rights. In 1986 the Supreme Court heard the case of Bowers v. Hardwick. Lawyers representing Michael Hardwick,
a practicing homosexual, wanted the Court to declare that Georgia's "sodomy" statute was unconstitutional because, as the Court's majority
put it, the statute "violates the fundamental rights of homosexuals." The Court has long claimed that the "due process clause"
of the Fourteenth Amendment empowers it to nullify state laws which at least five justices feel violate "fundamental rights." The
claim is completely fraudulent, but that's another story. In Bowers v. Hardwick, a bare 5-4 majority opined that the practice
of "homosexual sodomy" was not a "fundamental right." So Georgia's law was upheld. The majority opinion, written by Byron White,
pointed out that "sodomy was a criminal offense at common law and was forbidden by the laws of the original 13 States when they ratified
the Bill of Rights." It went on to observe that "in 1868, when the Fourteenth Amendment was ratified, all but 5 of the 37 States
in the Union had criminal sodomy laws. In fact, until 1961, all 50 States outlawed sodomy."
Liberals
Praise Hillary Clinton's New Ad With Same Sex Couples Kissing. The Hillary Clinton campaign is out with an ad
highlighting her record as an advocate for LGBT rights. The spot includes images of gay couples kissing each other.
The liberal website Slate praises Clinton for including same-sex kissing in her campaign ad, saying, "Given the distressingly
puritanical rules that govern gay PDAs, it's both impressive and heartening that Clinton includes gay kisses in her official
campaign spots."
Media Bias That Makes You Sick. A so-called
"Media Activism Research Conference" is being held next year in Canada to expand even further the "progressive" causes available to
journalists. The event is described as a "Gathering for Grassroots and Transformative Media" at Lakehead University and "an
opportunity to develop collaborations and networks among anti-capitalist, feminist, anti-racist, trans, queer and Indigenous alternative
media activists and activist-researchers by sharing knowledge, skills and experiences on grassroots and transformative alternative media."
Brace yourselves for one of the seminars, which concerns "Queer anarchist autonomous zones and publics: Direct action vomiting against
homonormative consumerism." According to my research, and I may not have gotten to the bottom of this, it seems as if media activists
in Canada are exploring vomiting as a form of social protest against capitalism.
The Editor says...
I guess you'd have to be a public school student to understand how terroristic vomiting on random strangers would make the
general public sympathetic to a left-wing cause, or to understand how capitalism is a threat to homosexuals.
Health
campaigners hail New York governor's $200m AIDS fight pledge. Andrew Cuomo has pledged $200m to help make HIV
and Aids a thing of the past in New York, the governor announced on Monday, the eve of World Aids Day. [...] The extra
resources will go towards improved housing and healthcare for people living with HIV and Aids and is part of the state's
official aim to eradicate the disease by 2020.
The Editor says...
AIDS is one of the most easily-preventable contagious diseases in the
world. It doesn't take $200 million to stop AIDS. All it takes is
abstinence from sex with prostitutes, heroin addicts, and sodomites.
It's official: 'Homophobia' now a mental
disorder! If you think there might be something wrong with homosexuality, you most likely have a mental disorder, according to a recent
study by a team of Italian researchers. Discussing the study, lead researcher Emmanuele A. Jannini, M.D., stated: "After discussing
for centuries if homosexuality is to be considered a disease, for the first time we demonstrated that the real disease to be cured is homophobia,
associated with potentially severe psychopathologies." That's right. The research team specifically found that "psychoticism," "immature
defense mechanisms" and a "fearful attachment style" were associated with a greater "homophobic" attitude in individuals.
GOP
Massachusetts Governor Orders Nation's First Statewide LGBT Affirmative Action Program For Contractors.
Massachusetts Gov. Charles Baker (R) is the first state leader to issue an executive order that mandates the commonwealth
alter its Supplier Diversity Program (SDP) to include LGBT-owned businesses along with those owned by other minority groups.
The National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC) said Baker's order is a "precedent-setting opportunity for tens of thousands
of LGBT business owners" — one that will allow LGBT-owned businesses to be added to the state's SDP alongside women and
minority-owned businesses.
ISIS Is Islamic and Bruce Jenner is a
Man. When Bruce Jenner says he is a woman now, the American left not only applauds him and starts referring to him as
a she, but demands that everyone else do so at the risk of their livelihoods. Only a bigot would think a man with a penis is a
man when he says he is a woman. The left has an ongoing war with reality where, in their quest for utopia, they have decided
to shut out truths contrary to their reality.
This
Isn't A Culture War, It's A War On Culture. When liberal Houston — a city with a three-term
lesbian mayor — overwhelming rejected an anti-discrimination ordinance for the transgendered (among others), a
hysterical New York Times editorial accused voters of being transphobic hate mongers with blood on their hands. There
are, perhaps, some other possibilities. For example, maybe a majority of voting Houstonians believed they could handle
these social interactions without orders from the city council? Maybe, without any animus, they believe genetically
corresponding girls and boys should use girls and boys restrooms? Maybe they find laws micromanaging the affairs and
relationships of business owners intrusive? I find myself in the last group.
Sex
Reassignment Is Latest Company Benefit in Equality Push. U.S. companies are swiftly adding health insurance
benefits for employees who want to transition to another gender, a fairly inexpensive way to show they're serious about a
diverse workforce because so few people actually use them. More than 415 of about 780 firms surveyed for their
friendliness toward lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender workers now cover related procedures, including hormone therapy
and sex-reassignment surgeries, according to the Human Rights Campaign. That's more than double the number in 2012, and
up from just 49 in 2009.

Houston's
real Hero, Lance Berkman Discusses Being Attacked by Houston's Real Zero Mayor Annise Parker After Transgender Bathroom Fail.
"Social justice"-minded liberal activists took a beating on Tuesday night as the HERO ordinance (Houston Equal Rights Ordinance) went down
in flames at the hands of a majority of liberal voters in dark blue Houston. [...] Yet, no takedown of a fake HERO would be possible without
real heroes. One of those real heroes in Houston, who fought against the certifiable insanity that lesbian Mayor Annise Parker tried to
perpetrate on citizens she's charged with protecting, was former Rice University and former Houston Astro star Lance Berkman who was
considered by many — rightly or wrongly — to be the "face" of the anti-HERO effort.
NFL
Refuses to Move Super Bowl from Houston After 'Bathroom Ordinance' Rejected. The NFL will not move the 2017
Super Bowl from Houston after the losers in the so-called "bathroom" ordinance demanded on Wednesday that the league cancel

Bullies
lose, sanity wins in Houston: There will be no man parts in the ladies room. The bullies lost. After a

As
Transgender Students Make Gains, Schools Hesitate at Bathrooms. Asked to call a transgender boy by a male name
he has chosen for himself, teachers and administrators around the country have leaned toward a simple response: Sure. Allow a
high school student who was born male but identifies as female to join the volleyball team? Fine. But as transgender students
assert themselves more, schools have hesitated at the locker room and the bathroom. Many have developed policies that require
transgender students to use private changing and showering facilities, drawing opposition from these students, their parents and
advocates who say the rules are discriminatory.
Houston
LGBT nondiscrimination ordinance rejected by voters. An ordinance that would have established nondiscrimination
protections for gay and transgender people in Houston failed to win approval from voters on Tuesday [11/3/2015].

Women
Cry Foul as Glamour Magazine Names Bruce Jenner 'Woman of the Year'. The politically correct Glamour Magazine has
reportedly waived the one defining requirement of candidates for its "Woman of the Year" honor — a double X
chromosome — in conferring the title for 2015 on crossdresser Bruce Jenner, a move many women are finding insulting.
The magazine is expected to formally announce its choice of Jenner as woman of the year, along with actress Reese Witherspoon, on
November 3.
"Caitlyn"
Jenner Named "Woman of the Year" Despite the Fact He [is a man]. The liberal feminazi media has decided to shove Bruce "Call Me

him their "Woman of the Year" even though, you know, he's a [man].
Hospital
Expels Doctor for Telling Medical Truth About Gay Sex. We knew this would eventually happen. Some medical facts
are now considered verboten under penalty of career loss. Dr. Paul Church was fired for telling the truth —
really — medical truth.
Nine Signs of
the Impending American Collapse. Gender has come increasingly to be regarded not as a biological fact but as a
social construct, and ultimately as an expression of one's "inner feelings" (as if there were any other kind) and
affect-laden sense of sexual or personal identity. A man is a woman is a trans is a tiger is a wolf — in other
words, an idiosyncratic caricature of a normal human being. [...] Such aberrations follow from and go hand in hand with a
longstanding, aggressive and doctrinaire feminism that has infected every important social and professional institution,
leading to the legal and societal deprivileging and even the feminization of men, who must not only endure institutional
inequities but must continually apologize for their existence — another recipe for social and cultural catastrophe.
The Humanist Hoax of
'Gender'. The senseless LGBTQ, etc. gender categories being foisted upon a suckered America are directly
equivalent to the dehumanizing racial categories of mulatto and quadroon. They are cooked up in university
"gender studies" departments by godless, power-hungry political minds without scientific or genetic justification.
Welcome to the United
States of Alice. "Sex-change" surgery was pioneered at Johns Hopkins Medical School but then discontinued in
the 1970s since it failed to treat gender dysphoria. "[T]ransgendering is a psychological rather than a biological matter,"
Paul McHugh, former psychiatrist-in-chief at Johns Hopkins, wrote recently. "The treatment should strive to correct the
false, problematic nature of the assumption [that one is of the opposite sex and this is a matter of choice] and to resolve
the psychosocial conflicts provoking it." A 30-year study in Sweden showed that after surgery, transgendered patients
commit suicide at 20 times the rate of non-transgender people. Meanwhile in 75 percent of cases without
surgical or medical treatment, McHugh noted, transgender feelings spontaneously disappear.
The modern malleability of gender and
race. In the present postmodern world, we are told that there is no such thing as a biologically distinct gender.
Instead, gender is now socially constructed. It can be defined by the individual in almost any way he or she sees fit.
Gay Crime and the Media.
The legacy media has twisted itself through several dimensions in in its effort to hide the fact that murderer Vester

Raid
of Rentboy, an Escort Website, Angers Gay Activists. For some gay activists, it had shades of bathhouse raids
and gay-bar roundups from decades ago. On Tuesday [8/25/2015], federal authorities burst into the Union Square office
of the gay-escort website Rentboy.com and arrested the chief executive and several employees on prostitution charges.
Rentboy, which federal authorities called the biggest male-escort website, had been around for almost two decades, allowing
escorts to pay to advertise themselves. It was well known in the gay community, hosting pool parties, dances and awards
shows throughout the country.
Indy
Star Orchestrates Secret Campaign To Promote LGBT Special Protections. Breitbart News has exclusively obtained
an email sent by the President and Publisher of the Indianapolis Star. It invites "community leaders" to help plan and
coordinate an aggressive, highly orchestrated campaign to "persuade" the Indiana state legislature to adopt sweeping special
protections for Indiana's gay, lesbian and transgender communities. The email, sent personally by Karen Ferguson Fuson,
President and Publisher of the Star, was sent early this morning to an undisclosed list of business and media elites, together
with gay rights activists. It pulls no punches in its scope or its goals.
The
Science Is Settled: Sexual Orientation Is Not Purely Biological. The argument that sexual orientation is solely
a biological phenomenon is extraordinarily weak, and this poll proves it. Evolution does not favor high prevalence of
homosexual attraction. Homosexuality prevents reproduction, the chief goal of natural selection; while some scientists make
the case that homosexuality has been preserved evolutionarily in order to preserve altruism for purposes of "kin selection,"
a high prevalence of homosexual attraction would threaten population growth. Furthermore, since homosexual activity is
highly linked in the human population to higher rates of disease and lower life expectancy, the notion that evolution would
favor higher rates of homosexuality would be a difficult one to support.
This is satire, I hope.
I
am royalty born in a commoner's body, and society is discriminating against me. I was
born in the body of a regular person, but in my mind, I feel I am royalty. I can't help this
feeling; it's just the way I am. And it upsets me when people don't treat me according to my royal
identity. When men talk to me, they do not bend the knee; women do not bow or even curtsy. And
no one calls me "m'lord" or even apologizes for retreating from my royal presence without leave. I
didn't ask to be born this way; it's just the way I am. And I feel very discriminated against by society,
which treats me like a commoner. When I go into a bathroom, everyone should leave so I can use it, but
no one does. That makes me very uncomfortable. All I want to do is to go to the bathroom in
peace! I think every business should either make everyone leave when I enter the bathroom or have a
bathroom that can be used only by royalty.
California
college will now ask students to pick from 6 genders. Beginning this fall, students at UC Irvine will have
the option to self-identify about their sexual orientation on all university admissions forms, reports CBS Los Angeles.
The new form will ask students to pick one gender from six different choices.
The Editor says...
Why must an applicant select only one gender? That sounds inflexible and exclusionary!
The Failed Missionary.
[Scroll down] [President Obama] has created a position at the State Department for a roving gay activist,
called the nation's "first special envoy for the human rights of L.G.B.T. persons," to meddle abroad.
Obama has dispatched that envoy to Africa but he wouldn't dare send him to an Islamic conference, say, in
Riyadh. Should Hillary Clinton win the presidency, such positions will multiply. She was the
first Secretary of State to declare gay activism abroad to be a "priority of our foreign policy."
Texas
Supreme Court suspends Houston's 'bathroom bill,' sets up ballot fight. The Texas Supreme Court gave
Friday [7/24/2015] the Houston city council 30 days either to repeal a civil-rights ordinance allowing
opposite-sex bathroom use or place it before the voters on the November ballot. The 12-page decision
says that the council ran afoul of the city charter when it refused to act after the city secretary certified
a year ago the signatures submitted by a pastor-led coalition, which had moved to force a vote on the Houston
Equal Rights Ordinance (HERO).
The
Gay Mafia Wants to Stop You From Doing This. There is an organized movement within the
gay rights community that is sometimess referred to as the "gay mafia." They want to harass those
who disagree with their agenda and silence any dissent from their agenda. They have worked overtime
in the past twenty-four hours because an AP poll shows that the number of Americans who now support gay
marriage has declined since the Supreme Court's ruling and a majority believe Christian businesses should
not be compelled to provide goods and services to gay weddings. They cannot have that. They
also cannot have books and data that dispute their claims. One such book is by my friend Ryan Anderson.
Bruce
Jenner, Brett Favre, and the cultural totalitarians. In a truly surreal display, NFL
great Brett Favre is being denounced by the left's new cultural commissars for not clapping long and
hard enough at ESPN's ESPY awards, as Bruce/"Caitlyn" Jenner received a "Courage" award for his
efforts to become a woman. Oddly, Favre did applaud — not doing so would have been a
grave heresy to America's new church of progressive inquisitors. His sin was not applauding
enthusiastically enough. The New York Post placed a video of Favre's blasphemous
insufficient clapping, juxtaposed with Jenner's celebratory ascent to the stage. [...] No,
I'm not making this up. In the New America, not only must we accept transgenderism, but we must
literally applaud it — and literally applaud it long, loud, and hard. And remember,
Big Brother is watching you.
Every
Day, A New Way to Hate. Unusually slow on the uptick, the neo-puritan elect have yet
to coin a term for those who "hate" or "fear" the "transitioning" among us. "Trannyphobia" might
have worked, but the playful term "tranny," which was acceptable until about a week ago, has joined
the n-word and the f-word among the unutterable. Transgender activists will decide on a label
soon enough. The Islamists did. In one of the more curious twists in recent progressive
history, a media savvy cell in America chose to mimic gay activists who had been successfully using the
"phobia" trope to defame opponents of their political agenda. The Islamists saw the same potential
in the concept of "Islamophobia." With the media's help, they could and did tie their struggle to
those of other marginalized groups and, in the words of one former activist, "beat up their critics."
The
Queering of America. The U.S. Supreme Court's decision striking down state laws barring same-sex
"marriage" is the culmination of a decades-long corrosive process, one that has been methodically guided by a
strategic subversive plan. All moral people are rightly outraged by this official mockery of the natural
law, the moral law, and the divine law. But we should not be shocked or surprised, as the unmistakable
signs that this was coming have been ever more obvious with each and every concession to the "gay" lobby and
"gay" culture. This article originally appeared in the June 8, 1998 issue of The New American,
17 years ago.
Political correctness can easily put you out of a job.
Man
fired over anti-gay posting sues Ford, job firm. A contract engineer is suing his
employer, as well as Ford, for discrimination after losing an automotive design job because he

Ypsilanti filed a federal lawsuit against Rapid Global Business Solutions, an engineering and
employment service in Troy, and Ford, where he had been on assignment at a Dearborn plant for
more than three years.
The Big Gay Lie.
Before looking at what scientific studies tell us here's some anecdotal evidence that people may
already be familiar with: • When AIDS first struck gays fought tooth and nail
to keep the bathhouses — where gays go for anonymous sex with strangers —
open. Gays are so addicted to sex that even in the face of a fatal disease they didn't want to curb
their promiscuous lifestyle. • AIDS. While we're constantly told that it's not
a gay disease the reality is that in the U.S. almost no one but gays get AIDS from sex. Yet even
though condoms don't stop the spread of AIDS gays continue to risk their lives to have sex with
strangers. • While everyone condemns crimes by priests and ministers against
children, the fact is that 81% of the victims of priests have been young boys; the problem is a gay
one. • NAMBLA — which advocates sex with 3 year olds —
is an accepted part of the gay community. The organization marched in the SF Gay Pride parade for
years before pressure from straights got the organization booted out due to bad optics.
Christians Must Brace Themselves for the
Coming Persecution in Obama's LGBT America. Rod Dreher, writing in an article in Time
Magazine, has this to say about the recent US Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage: "LGBT
activists and their fellow travelers will be coming after social conservatives. The Supreme Court
has now, in constitutional doctrine, said that homosexuality is equivalent to race. The next goal
of activists will be a long-term campaign to remove tax-exempt status from dissenting religious
institutions. The more immediate goal will be the shunning and persecution of dissenters within
civil society."
The Gay Lifestyle Fallacy.
The United States is sinking into the moral decay of tribal warfare. No longer can Christians state their case
without a torrent of hatred coming from both atheists and those in the gay rights cabal. Any opinion that does not
toe the progressive line will not be tolerated. This comes from the party of tolerance. Your identity, your
lifestyle, even you very dignity will be trashed if you do not comply. This way of thinking will soon be a
coercive force in every citizens life. Much of it starts with those who speak out from within the gay community,
or those who have been raised inside the gay community and have felt its corrosive way of thinking first hand.
Gay
Man Files $70M Suit Against Bible Publishers Over 'Homosexual' Verses. A homosexual man filed a $70 million
lawsuit against Bible publishers alleging that their version of the Bible that refers to homosexuality as a sin violates his
constitutional rights and has caused him emotional distress. [...] In his hand-written suit, 39 year old Fowler makes many

Oregon
allowing 15-year-olds to get state-subsidized sex-change operations. The list of
things 15-year-olds are not legally allowed to do in Oregon is long: Drive, smoke, donate blood, get
a tattoo — even go to a tanning bed. But, under a first-in-the-nation policy quietly
enacted in January that many parents are only now finding out about, 15-year-olds are now allowed to
get a sex-change operation. Many residents are stunned to learn they can do it without parental
notification — and the state will even pay for it through its Medicaid program, the Oregon
Health Plan. "It is trespassing on the hearts, the minds, the bodies of our children," said Lori
Porter of Parents' Rights in Education. "They're our children. And for a decision, a
life-altering decision like that to be done unbeknownst to a parent or guardian, it's mindboggling."
Jimmy
Carter: 'I Believe Jesus Would Approve of Gay Marriage'. Former President Jimmy Carter
argued Tuesday Jesus Christ would "approve" of gay marriage if he were around in an interview with
HuffPost Live's Marc Lamont Hill. Carter offered up his support for the recent Supreme Court
ruling legalizing gay marriage nationwide, while using Jesus to prop up his reasoning.
Carter:
'I Believe Jesus Would Approve Of Gay Marriage'. Carter took on the issue from a
Biblical perspective and declared that it was his view Jesus would have approved of the gay
marriage. "I believe Jesus would. I don't have any verse in scripture," Carter said.
'I believe Jesus would approve gay marriage, but that's just my own personal belief. I think
Jesus would encourage any love affair if it was honest and sincere and was not damaging to anyone
else, and I don't see that gay marriage damages anyone else."
The Editor says...
Former Sunday School teacher Jimmy Carter seems to have forgotten the story
about the woman at the well,

other
things.
Same-sex
marriage is only the beginning. That the majority threw a bone to religious people,
their churches and institutions, saying they could continue to preach and teach that homosexual
marriage is wrong, will almost certainly be challenged by gay activists and secularists whose goal
is to drive religious people, and especially Christians, out of the public square. What might be
a preview of things to come occurred last week when the Fairfax County (Va.) School Board voted 10-2
to approve a "gender identity" curriculum for children starting in seventh grade. News reports
said the crowd that showed up for the vote overwhelmingly opposed the decision, but majorities
no longer matter.
Huge
crowd for Chicago [Gay] Pride Parade. Revelers streaming to Boystown for the city's
annual Pride Parade today [6/28/2015] have an extra reason to celebrate after the landmark Supreme
Court decision making gay marriage legal throughout the country.
Gay
Rights Leaders Push for Federal Civil Rights Protections. Exhilarated by the Supreme
Court's endorsement of same-sex marriage, gay rights leaders have turned their sights to what they
see as the next big battle: obtaining federal, state and local legal protections in employment,
housing, commerce and other arenas, just like those barring discrimination based on race, religion,
sex and national origin. The proposals pit advocates against many of the same religious
conservatives who opposed legalizing same-sex marriage, and who now see the protection of what they
call religious liberty as their most urgent task. These opponents argue that antidiscrimination laws
will inevitably be used to force religious people and institutions to violate their beliefs, whether
by providing services for same-sex weddings or by employing gay men and lesbians in church-related jobs.
LGBT
Leaders: Gay Marriage Is Not Enough. [Scroll down] Poverty, contraception, and abortion might
not seem like inherently LGBT issues but they are certainly intertwined with them. According to the Center
for American Progress, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender women are more likely to live in poverty than their
heterosexual and non-transgender counterparts. They are also at increased risk of sexual assault, as the
National Center for Lesbian Rights notes, which makes abortion access essential for lesbians and bisexual women.
Refusing
to Bow at the Altar of Homosexuality. I was a law student when I first learned of the
consequences of not being politically correct concerning homosexuality. A former Miss America's
contract as the citrus growers' brand-ambassador was allowed to lapse because she had successfully
campaigned for the repeal of a pro-homosexual ordinance in Miami-Dade County. She was quoted as
saying, "What these people really want, hidden behind obscure legal phrases, is the legal right to
propose to our children that theirs is an acceptable, alternate way of life." She was publicly
humiliated — "pied" on national television — and her name — Anita
Bryant — became synonymous with something called "homophobia" and "hate speech."
Our Nightmare
of Reason. Today an American conservative might well feel like a Kafkaesque protagonist, as the
country appears to be drifting increasingly into absurdist territory under the leadership of Barack Obama, the
Democratic Party, and leftist elites in the media and entertainment industries. The lionization of Bruce
Jenner's makeover into a pseudo-woman is but a symptom of this slide into mass irrationality. [...] The idea
that some men, despite the obvious biological evidence, are in fact women, and vice versa, has become generally
accepted by a large percentage of the country, and endorsed by none other than the president himself.
Rather than society sympathetically tolerating Jenner, or offering him mental health treatment, he and other
so-called transsexuals (like convicted Army private Bradley Manning) can now medically mutilate themselves at
public expense. They can compel girls to use public bathrooms and showers with biological boys who
claim to be female.
Feds:
Transgender Bathroom Choice a Matter of 'Health and Safety'. The Department of Labor
(DOL) issued instructions for how private businesses should address a transgender individual who
wants to use a different bathroom, arguing that allowing transwomen to use the ladies bathroom is a
matter of "health and safety." "The core belief underlying these policies is that all employees
should be permitted to use the facilities that correspond with their gender identity," according to
the guidance, issued by the DOL's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). "For
example, a person who identifies as a man should be permitted to use men's restrooms, and a person
who identifies as a woman should be permitted to use women's restrooms." "The employee should
determine the most appropriate and safest option for him- or herself," the document said.
Caitlyn
Jenner and the War on Facts. [Scroll down] Why should anyone care about someone
else's personal decisions? What difference does it make? These questions, however, are based on the
assumption that "live and let live" is a two-way street. Unfortunately, for most hard-core transgender
supporters, that's just not the case: In their world, we all must agree. Because of this, many
people are simply too scared to say what they really think.
Repentant
Transsexual Warns Jenner: The 'Hangover' Is Coming. Amidst the media euphoria
surrounding the former Bruce Jenner's gender reassignment surgery and cover photo on Vanity
Fair, a 74-year-old transsexual who deeply regrets his decision has come forward to caution
those who think that transgenderism solves people's psychosexual problems. In a CNN interview on
Tuesday [6/2/2015], Walt Heyer warned viewers that the relief accompanying gender reassignment
surgery doesn't last. After Jenner expressed exhilaration over the Vanity Fair cover,
Heyer responded that such elation is normal, but transient.
Bruce
"Caitlyn" Jenner Is Asking Too Much. To me, this conversation is beginning to feel
very 1984. I have been told that I must refer to a man as a woman. If I decline to do so, however
politely, I am demonized as an oppressor, a bigot and a hater. I have been told that I must use the
female pronouns: she, her, and hers, not the male pronouns, he, his, and him. If I decline
to do so, however politely, I am excluded from decent society. I am classed with murderers.
I am very wary of any movement that demands that people change their everyday language and that demonizes
those who decline to do so. If we redefine a woman as a person who poses in a corset and shows
substantial cleavage on the cover of Vanity Fair, what does that make a woman who has had a double
mastectomy and dresses modestly and hasn't access to Vanity Fair? My question is not rhetorical,
it is not a joke, and it is not trivial. Definitions get to the scaffolding of society and the essence
of things. If we don't answer this question now, it will become less and less of a joke as we proceed
down this slippery slope.

The Editor took the liberty (while he still has it) to alter the headline above.
Calling
Bruce Jenner a Woman Is an Insult to Women. Parents, be aware: soon the magazine rack
in the checkout line at the supermarket will feature this profoundly disturbing image of Bruce Jenner.
The picture is plastered right on the cover of the next Vanity Fair issue, and it shows Bruce dolled up
in makeup and hair extensions, posing in a corset, with parts of his face, forehead, and throat shaved off
for cosmetic reasons, and his chest enhanced by hormone pills, Photoshop, and silicone. The idea is
to make the 65-year-old grandfather look like a college girl, but the effect is that he looks like a distorted
version of neither. What he most closely resembles is a mentally disordered man who is being manipulated
by disingenuous liberals and self-obsessed gay activists. Far from having the appearance of a genuine
woman, he reminds me of someone who is being abandoned to his delusions by a culture of narcissistic imbeciles.
Left's Gifts to Language.
[Scroll down] Liberal legislators nationwide are casually adopting laws to include this new
and exciting language into the public realm because they are pressured. Pressure by small, vocal
and dedicated groups like LGBTQ result in huge societal impacts because once it's law, implementation of
it forces this 'inclusionary" language to be considered as common as pencils. Liberal legislators
know they gain additional votes for their next election, and gain a very loyal constituency whose impact
far Warren outweighs their numbers. Because laws don't really attach to any of them personally
(legislation is essentially anonymous as to its origins) they don't worry criticism will attach to them;
they will even verbally side with critics. Say one thing, vote another; it happens all the time
in politics.
The Dictatorship
of Godless Perverts [...] cannot permit anyone to question the regime's absolute authority. The
commissars of the regime will tell you "what it means to be a man, and what it means to be a woman," and you
are not permitted to talk back to them. There can be no discussion or debate. If you do not endorse
the Official Truth, you must be silenced. You must be punished if you refuse to repudiate
your opposition, because everything you "consider natural and normal" — your "basic, deep-rooted
ideas" — "will need to change."
Killing the Scouts.
[Scroll down] For example, it would be wonderful if the Boys Scouts took the opportunity to teach young boys
about the "born that way" myth. In spite of the popular meme perpetuated by the homosexual agenda, no one
is "born gay." [...] [I]t would also be nice if Boy Scout leadership told the truth on the tremendous health dangers
associated with sexual immorality. This is especially the case for those involved in a homosexual lifestyle.
There are abundant data that reveal the dangers of a homosexual lifestyle. [...] Men who have sex with men account for
75% of primary and secondary syphilis cases in the U.S. and are 17 times more likely to develop anal cancer than
are heterosexual men. Though homosexuals make up only about 2% of the population, homosexual men account for about
two-thirds of all new HIV infections. The Canadian healthcare system notes that the life expectancy of homosexual
men is 20 years less than the average.
You 'Must be Made' to Obey.
[Scroll down] Of course, if homosexual behavior, something denounced as both "vile affections"
and "an abomination" throughout both the Old and New Testaments, is no longer sexual sin, then there
can be no sexual sin whatsoever. To coerce, through the power of the police state, faithful
Christians to abandon the millennia-old biblical sexual ethic and embrace the sin of Sodom would
likewise require that Christians sign-off on fornication, adultery, incest and bestiality. Such
is the unnatural nature of government-mandated moral relativism. "But this isn't free speech, it's
hate speech!" come the mournful cries of the ill-informed and the ill-prepared, desperately afraid to
debate the issues on the merits.
Americans
Vastly Overestimate Size of LGBT Population. Same-sex marriage is one of the fastest-moving social issues in
U.S. history, having become legal in state after state as Americans cheer it in ever-growing numbers. But one thing is
slightly off-kilter: Americans seem to have absolutely no idea just how many of their fellow citizens are lesbians or
gay men. In fact, they think that 23 percent of Americans, or almost one in four, are are gays or lesbians, a
Gallup survey released Thursday [5/21/2015] revealed. That's way off: The polling organization most recently
found that less than 4 percent self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender.
Mad
Max and the Dream-Work of Homosexuality. A number of conservatives have been puzzled
by the left's simultaneous defense of gay men and Islamists. The cognitive dissonance might belie a
deeper coherence: both Islamists and gay men aspire to separate men from women, albeit in different
realms, to the noted benefit of men and to the obvious rejection of women as autonomous beings with dignity
and rights.
First
They Shut You Up, Then You Will Be Made to Care. A young man last week pointed out
that transgenderism is largely a mental health issue and started receiving threats on twitter and
general harassment. The Fire Chief in Atlanta referred to homosexuality as a sin and lost his job.
Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty quoted scripture and the left tried to drive him from the airwaves. The
Benham Brothers are evangelical Christians and had their TV deal cancelled for offending the gay mafia.
Christians will be made to shut up.
Johns
Hopkins Psychiatrist: Transgender is a 'Mental Disorder' — Sex Change is 'Biologically
Impossible'. Dr. Paul R. McHugh, the former psychiatrist-in-chief for Johns Hopkins
Hospital and its current Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry, said that transgenderism is
a "mental disorder" that merits treatment, that sex change is "biologically impossible," and that
people who promote sexual reassignment surgery are collaborating with and promoting a mental
disorder. Dr. McHugh, the author of six books and at least 125 peer-reviewed medical articles,
made his remarks in a recent commentary in the Wall Street Journal, where he explained that
transgender surgery is not the solution for people who suffer a "disorder of 'assumption'" —
the notion that their maleness or femaleness is different than what nature assigned to them
biologically. He also reported on a new study showing that the suicide rate among
transgendered people who had reassignment surgery is 20 times higher than the suicide
rate among non-transgender people.
The
Missing Word in the Immigration Debate. [Scroll down] Note the strident
insistence with which liberals demand that we say "reproductive rights" instead of "abortion",
"gender" instead of "sex", and "undocumented" instead of "illegal". Each of these word choices hides
some aspect of an issue that liberals want to keep hidden. [...] Similarly, by insisting that
homosexuality is a matter of "gender" preference, liberals try to divert attention away from the fact
that the primary objection most people have to homosexuality concerns certain grotesque sexual acts.
15
Statistics That Destroy Liberal Narratives. [#15] The survey taken by the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention asked a simple question of 34,557 adults nationwide: "Which of the
following best represents how you think of yourself?" The five possible answers were straight,
lesbian/gay, bisexual, "something else" and "I don't know the answer." Transgenders, the "T" in
LGBT, were not included. The survey found that a mere 1.6 percent of the adult population
self-identifies as "lesbian/gay," and an even smaller 0.7 percent told interviewers they were
bisexual. The bisexuals were outnumbered by the 1.1 percent who didn't know, wouldn't
answer or said they were "something else." This result was far from the 10 percent that
homosexual rights advocates have claimed since the 1970s.
Nothing but
the Truth. [Scroll down] If the lie is repeated enough, if outside information
or opposing viewpoints are not permitted or tolerated, if those receiving the disinformation are
hungry, dehumanized, uneducated, or tortured enough, anyone can become a believer in the inconceivable
(that two plus two could really equal five) or the implausible (that global warming is a greater existential
threat than radical Islamic terrorists). This is how we came to believe there are dozens of genders
even though thousands of years of science and human history confirm the existence of only two. This
is how we came to believe that homosexuality is not a choice but an alternative physical attribute that
cannot be controlled; that gay sex is equivalent to heterosexual sex, even though only the latter results
in reproduction; that abortion is a social good and constitutional right that should be encouraged; that
a family with two daddies is exactly the same as a family with a mommy and a daddy; that blended and
broken families are just as good as traditional families; and, that fathers are superfluous.
You
Don't Need a Rainbow Sticker to Let People Know You're Black. The gay rights movement
cannot abide a middle ground and a free exercise of religion for a simple reason — homosexuality
is not normal in nature, in historic relationships, or in the sacred texts of almost all religions. The
gay rights movement must therefore censor and subjugate dissent. Any who point out the lack of historic
or religious acceptance or the lack of its ready existence in nature or, for that matter, the lack of scientific
evidence showing homosexuality is a birth trait as opposed to a choice or external factors, must be shut up.
Homosexuals and the gay rights movement crave not tolerance, but the veneer of normalcy.
Gay-conversion
therapy ban to be introduced in House. Opponents of sexual orientation change efforts,
such as Reps. Ted W. Lieu and Jackie Speier, both California Democrats, say being homosexual is not
a disorder or illness, and efforts to change one's sexual orientation are wrong and harmful.
Supporters of such therapy counter that it has helped many people successfully reduce or eliminate
their unwanted same-sex attractions, and it's wrong to trample people's rights to seek the counseling
of their choice.
The Editor says...
For about 8,000 years, we all agreed that homosexuality was perverse. Everybody, that is,
except the residents of Sodom and Gomorrah, who were wiped out in fireball delivered by God himself.
(What does that tell you?) It wasn't until about 30 years ago that anyone dared to suggest
that homosexuality was a normal and natural way to express your love for the truck driver you just met
20 minutes ago.
Just Murder, Not
a 'Hate Crime'. [Scroll down] It is important to understand how the media
deliberately manipulate perceptions. The murder of Matthew Shepard was portrayed as a hate crime,
despite every evidence to the contrary, because gay activists figured out that depicting
homosexuals as victims — and depicting opponents of the gay agenda as motivated by
dangerously violent "hate" — was the key to political success. Both the news media and
the entertainment industry have seized on this theme, promoting the Gay Victimhood narrative so
relentlessly as to foment paranoia and generate a certain number of fake hate-crime hoaxes.
Meanwhile, public school administrators are twisting themselves into pretzels to be "inclusive" and
"tolerant" of homosexuality, implementing "anti-bullying" campaigns based on the belief that our
society is pervaded by an irrational homophobia that causes gay kids to commit suicide.
LGBT
Undermining of the Constitution, Culture, and Conservatives. Conservative commentator
and legal analyst Matt Barber elaborated that most LGBT individuals are part of a "sexual anarchy
... [a] cultural Marxist movement." They seek "to burn down the white picket fence," not
traditional bourgeois committed relationships. Kincaid analyzed the Marxist backgrounds of various
LGBT movement founders and declared that "Communism is not dead," for Karl Marx called for family
abolition, "not just an economic theory." Kincaid focused on American Communist Party member Harry
Hay, whose FBI surveillance file is available at ASI's website. Hay wore a "NAMBLA walks with me"
sign at a San Francisco gay parade and later pursued the occult as a "radical fairie." Journalist
James Simpson explained in his presentation that actually, the "left does not care about gay rights."
As Communist regimes indicate with their criminalization of homosexuality throughout history, the "issue
is always the revolution."
It's
Not Hateful To Point Out Bruce Jenner Isn't A Woman. Of all the trends currently working their way
through journalism, there is perhaps none so baffling as the media's indulgence in the transgender narrative.
Journalists appear to have acquiesced to this ideology en masse. No less a formidable source than the
"AP Stylebook" declared a few years ago that Associated Press employees are to use "the pronoun preferred by the
individuals" in cases where confusion may arise. [...] Journalists should not buy into this. Simply as a
matter of factual accuracy, it is nonsensical: if tomorrow I declared myself head of the executive branch
of the U.S. government, for instance, the AP would not suddenly be required to call me President Payne.
Obama's
Lawyer Basically Tells SCOTUS That Religious Schools Are Toast. During oral arguments
made in the same-sex marriage case heard by the Supreme Court on Tuesday [4/28/2015] (Obergefell
v. Hodges), Justices Roberts and Alito questioned Solicitor General Donald Verrilli about the
rights of religious schools if the Court decides to impose same-sex marriage on the states.
Justice Roberts asked if religious schools that provide housing to married students would be required
to offer such housing to same-sex couples. Verrilli demurred, saying there is currently no
federal law banning discrimination based on sexual orientation. "Those issues are going to
have to be worked out," he said.
Urgent
Action Needed for Indiana HIV Outbreak, CDC Says. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Friday
[4/24/2015] that "urgent action" was needed to control the outbreak in Indiana's Scott County and said it's possible other
cities or towns are vulnerable. A combination of easily available prescription painkillers, a poor economy and a lack
of education are fueling the Indiana outbreak.
The Editor says...
Apparently the government wants you to believe this AIDS outbreak has nothing to do with I.V. drugs, prostitutes, promiscuity or sodomy.
I'm surprised the CDC isn't putting the blame on global warming, which seems to be the left's default culprit lately.
This was unthinkable 50 years ago. Thanks, liberals!
CA
ballot initiative would keep boys out of girls' bathrooms. A group called Privacy for
All is trying to get enough signatures to create a ballot initiative in California that would
prevent boys from going into girls' bathrooms and locker rooms, even if the boys wiggle when they
walk and talk in high-pitched feminine voices.
Obama Warns Parents: Your Kids Are
Mine. President Barack Obama has issued a declaration on human sexuality and what
constitutes moral and mental health for the nation. He is warning Christian parents that the federal
government wants their kids. This is not how the story is being reported, however. For example,
a story in Politico carries the headline, "Barack Obama denounces 'conversion therapies' for gays," with
the words "conversion therapies" in quotes, as if to suggest there's some doubt that homosexuals can return
to being straight. This is all too typical of the mentality that grips the major media and is designed
to suggest that homosexuality is somehow natural and cannot be changed. But honest journalism, which
is virtually non-existent when covering homosexuality, would take a different approach to the topic.
Transgenderism:
A Return to Pagan Mythology. Declaring one's self to be other than what one is created
is an assault on material and human reality — an exercise in magical thinking that is
bound to run up against the reality of the created order, including the reality of humankind created
as male and female. Yet a recent article in the Daily Beast contains a complete glossary of
gender options. The glossary is currently comprised of 51 genders, among them an option to be
"gender fluid," that is, having the ability to flit from one gender to another according to what the
individual would like to be. The idea is that though biologically one may be born with male or
female parts, gender is a choice, not a fixed category. Instead, gender is determined by how
an individual feels about his or her self.
Street
preacher quoting from the Bible fined for calling homosexuality an 'abomination'. A
street preacher who quoted from the Bible has been fined for using "threatening" language. Mike
Overd, 50 and a former paratrooper, quoted from Leviticus on Taunton high street to state that homosexuality
is an "abomination". He was fined £200 and ordered to pay £1,200 in costs and
compensation by Judge Shamin Qureshi, sitting at Bristol Crown Court. The judge said Overd "knew
full well the power of words to hurt" and claimed he could have used other less offensive parts of
the Bible to quote from on the issue of homosexuality.
Gay
rights activists to Christians — surrender, or else. A few years ago I
hosted gay activist attorney Andrea Ritchie on my radio program and asked her whether she believed
the homosexual lobby could peacefully coexist with traditional Christian morality. After a very
pregnant pause, she responded pointedly: "Sure, if Christians will give up their resistance to our
cause." Today, in the midst of the inane opposition to the Indiana religious freedom bill, her
alarming words prove frighteningly prophetic.
Liberals
Ruin Everything: St. Patrick's Day Parade Edition. While the glories of capitalism may
have turned St. Patrick's Day into an opportunity to make some good money, it is still a religious
feast day. I am not at all asserting that a parade is some sort of sacred religious event, but
if the local cardinal is your grand marshal, there are still some ties to the Church.
Gay
groups still unhappy with NYC St. Patrick's parade. For the second consecutive year,
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and the City Council are boycotting the nation's largest and, at
250 years, oldest St. Patrick's Day Parade. The reason: After a backlash last year against a ban
on gay groups led to de Blasio being the first mayor in 20 years to stay away from the popular event, parade
organizers said they would allow only one gay group to march with a banner in this year's parade.
Ben
Carson eclipses his own presidential announcement with gay prison comments. In an
interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo that aired Wednesday, Carson dismissed comparisons between
restrictions on gay marriage and slavery. "People have no control over their race," Carson said,
adding that in his view people do have somecontrol over their sexual orientation. "Because a lot
of people who go into prison go into prison straight — and when they come out, they're
gay," the former head of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital said. "So, did
something happen while they were in there? Ask yourself that question."
Blinding
cases of syphilis found on West Coast, now potentially in L.A. On Thursday
[3/12/2015], the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health issued an advisory for primary and
eye-care providers to look out for symptoms associated with the disease, which is usually a
complication of primary or secondary syphilis infections. With more than a dozen
cases — most of them among gay men — reported between Seattle and San
Francisco and now potentially two in Southern California, the AIDS Healthcare Foundation is calling
for medical professionals to do more.
Utah
officer who objected to role in gay pride parade says he was unfairly labeled a bigot.
A former Salt Lake City police officer who was put on leave and later resigned after he objected to
riding in the motorcycle brigade at the front of last year's gay pride parade is speaking out
against what he believes was a violation of his religious liberties.
Policeman
Claiming he was forced out over LGBT controversy mulls lawsuit. After his bosses
allegedly branded him a bigot and the Salt Lake City Police Department allegedly hounded him out of
his job, Eric Moutsos has finally broken his silence to explain his motivations for not wanting to
perform motorcycle tricks at a gay pride parade last summer. He also explains his version of
what really happened.
Another
Christian Teacher Investigated for Facebook Comments Against 'Gay' Lifestyle. A New
Jersey school teacher has found herself in hot water for using her Facebook page to express her
moral outrage over the normalization of homosexuality. As reported by the New York Times, Viki
Knox, a special education teacher at Union High School in Union Township, used Facebook to complain
about a school display recognizing October as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender History month,
writing that "homosexuality is a perverted spirit that has existed from the beginning of creation."
HIV
strain that becomes AIDS in 3 years identified in Cuba. A strain of HIV that could
develop into AIDS before patients realize they are infected has been identified in Cuba. The
aggressive variant was seen in patients who developed AIDS within three years of contacting the
virus, according to a new study. It usually takes five to 10 years.
Kansas governor
erases protections for LGBT state employees with executive order. With a swipe of his
pen, Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback wiped out protections offered to state employees facing discrimination
on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. Brownback, a Republican, issued the
executive order Tuesday [2/10/2015], doing away with an order enacted by his predecessor, former
Gov. Kathleen Sibelius.
New York
Times Endorses Thought Crimes. Kelvin Cochran, the Fire Chief of Atlanta, published a
book (with permission from the Ethics Office for the City of Atlanta), in which he expressed his
Christian faith on sex, marriage, and life. For that, the New York Times says he included "virulent
anti-gay views." Actually, Cochran endorsed orthodox Christian views. He was fired more
than a year after the book came out. A retiring lesbian fire captain suddenly felt brave enough
to complain. The Mayor, needed urban, white liberals for his next election threw the Fire Chief
under the bus. [...] It does not matter that there is no evidence of discrimination. His
thoughts preclude him from his job.
Christians
rally to defend fire chief who wrote 'anti-gay' book. Kelvin Cochran is a decorated
firefighter. He is also a devout Christian. He's a deacon at a Baptist church and also teaches
Sunday school. By all accounts — he is a decent and honorable man. And now —
he is unemployed. Cochran, who served seven years as the chief of the Atlanta Fire Departmant [sic] lost his
job over a book he wrote about biblical morality titled, "Who Told You That You Were Naked?" A
small portion of the book contained what critics called homophobic language.
Atlanta
Fire Chief: I was fired because of my Christian faith. [Kelvin] Cochran had been
suspended in November because of a passage he wrote about homosexuality in a book titled, "Who Told
You That You Were Naked?" The book's theme is about biblical morality. "This is about judgment,"
Mayor Reed said during a Tuesday [1/6/2015] press conference. "This is not about religious freedom.
This is not about free speech. Judgment is the basis of the problem." Last November the mayor posted
a public condemnation of the fire chief on his official Facebook page. "I profoundly disagree with and am
deeply disturbed by the sentiments expressed in the paperback regarding the LGBT community," the mayor wrote.
"I will not tolerate discrimination of any kind within my administration."
LGBT
groups protest police abuses, block S.F. streets. Close to 200 people, many from San
Francisco's lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community, blocked streets in and around the
city's Castro district Wednesday morning [12/24/2014], rallying against what they described as
systemic police violence toward minorities.
Eric
Holder's Transgendered Mutilation of Title VII. [Eric] Holder's reference to "a
different sex" is badly confused and odd. A man who identifies as a woman — yes, even a
man who butchers and drugs himself to appear more like a woman — is still a man. Indeed,
when anyone points out this elementary biological reality, transgender activists insist that gender
is fundamentally different from sex. Holder states that the federal government's "approach to
this issue has ... evolved over time." That's his way of acknowledging that his position is directly
contrary to the position that DOJ had previously taken. As Christian Adams points out, Holder is instead
following the dubious lead of the reckless adventurists at the EEOC. And while Holder states that "courts
have reached varying conclusions" on the issue, his citations reveal that he's adopting the position taken
by a federal district judge over that taken by a federal court of appeals.
Left-Wing
Group Calls for Federal Crackdown on LGBT Discrimination. A report from the left-wing
Center for American Progress says gays, lesbians, and transsexuals will not fully realize the
promise of America unless and until the Federal government extends to them widespread protection
from all kinds of discrimination. The 76-page report calls for all levels of government to make
every kind of discrimination illegal and to expend taxpayer money to enforce the new laws. The
report also calls for private businesses to reeducate their employees about LGBT persons.
Transgender
Bathroom Bill Overturned. A city ordinance in Fayetteville, Ark, dubbed the transgender bathroom bill because
it allows biological males who claim they are females to use restroom facilities for women, was overturned on Tuesday, Dec. 9,
largely because of the intense lobbying efforts of Michelle Duggar, the matriarch of the reality-TV show 19 Kids & Counting,
carried by The Learning Channel.
Benham
Brothers on Anti-Duggar Campaign: 'Truth Is Considered Hate to Those Who Hate The Truth'. Jason and David Benham, two
Christian entrepreneurs who have been targeted by gay activists for their belief in traditional marriage, are speaking out about the
campaign by those same activists who are seeking the cancellation of the popular TLC television series "19 Kids and Counting,"
accusing the Duggar family of "fear mongering." "Since when is it considered 'fear mongering' to say that God designed a
man to be with a woman, or that kids deserve to have a mom and a dad, or that the ladies room should be for biological females?"
David Benham told CNSNews.com. "Saying the Duggars are inciting people to hate is simply propaganda."
Barack
Obama: A Companion of Fools. It seems that Barack Obama has a propensity to surround
himself with some questionable friends. [...] Take for example one foolish companion the president
walks with: the prominent gay rights activist Terrence P. Bean, 66, who has been indicted for
allegedly sexually abusing a 15-year-old boy. At a 2009 Human Rights Campaign dinner, Mr. Obama
called the alleged child molester a "great friend and supporter." As a matter of fact, Obama's
"great friend" Terrence has frequented the White House at least six times in the past couple of years.
An ardent and influential supporter of many prominent Democrats, in addition to visiting 1600 Pennsylvania
Avenue, Bean has also been a guest of the president on Air Force One flying around at $181K an hour.
End
the Media Blackout on Gay Rapists. Liberal politics, not people, matter to our evil
media. That's precisely why they rush to their cameras, microphones and keyboards when news
breaks about a pedophile Catholic priest having his way with altar boys. Not because they care
about the altar boys, but because they want to discredit the Catholic Church. If you doubt that
fact, ask yourself why you haven't heard much from the Mainstream Media about the recent arrest of
66 year-old Terrence Bean, charged with raping a 15-year old boy. The answer is because
Terrence isn't a Catholic priest. Instead, he's the co-founder and on the board of directors
of the homosexual organization ironically called the "Human Rights Campaign."
CNN
Covers Sex Abuse Case Against Obama 'Friend,' As Big Three Censor Story. CNN stood out
on Sunday and Monday for actually covering the sex abuse charges against Terry Bean, a "major
fundraiser for President Obama," as correspondent Erin McPike labeled him. The cable network
devoted three full segments and two news briefs to the criminal charges against Bean, who is also
the co-founder of the left-wing homosexual activist group Human Rights Campaign. As of Monday
morning [11/24/2014], the Big Three networks have yet to cover the story on their morning and
evening newscasts.
Network
Silence: Obama Ally, Gay Activist Arrested for Child Sex Abuse. Here's today's
installment of "Imagine if this had been a conservative..." As Newsbusters reported last week, the
founder of the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), which markets itself as the nation's largest LGBT rights
organization, was arrested Nov. 18 for allegedly sexually abusing a 15-year-old boy. Terrence Bean,
66, is a Democratic money man, prominent liberal activist and Obama ally. Bean's 25-year-old former
boyfriend was also charged in the crimes. [...] Since the story broke Wednesday [11/19/2014], local
media and conservative media have covered it. The Washington Post ran a brief AP story on the
arrest, but the networks have yet to report on it.
Major
Obama fundraiser arrested for sex with minor. He's a mega bundler for President Obama.
He's been on Air Force One. He's shared a Christmas visit with Michelle Obama at the White House.
And now he's being accused of sex with a minor. Terry Bean, 66, a gay activist and major
Democratic fund-raiser, was arrested Wednesday in Portland, Ore., for allegedly having sex with a
15-year-old boy. Bean's ex-boyfriend, Kiah Lawson, 25, was arrested Thursday in connection with
the same incident.
Top
Obama bundler accused of child rape. Conservatives complain that President Obama gets
a free pass from the media, which acts as a de-facto public-relations shop for the Democrat in the
White House. Never has that charge seemed truer than now as an ugly rape scandal unfolds on the
West Coast. On Wednesday [11/19/2014], Portland, Ore. police arrested Terrence Patrick Bean, who has
been charged with two felony counts of having sex with a minor last year. This man is not just any
old guy accused of having sex with a 15-year-old — he's a big-money Democratic donor and
liberal political activist with connections inside the Obama White House. Bean raised more than
a half-million dollars for Obama's 2012 re-election campaign.
It's Time to Save the American Family;
A Joyless Experiment Strained to the Limit. [Scroll down] Related to the demise
of the father is the astonishing, disfiguring and wholly curious rise of perversion in the arena of
personal identity. Individual identities which could not have been fathomed a generation ago are
beginning to flourish across the cultural wasteland. Societal standards appear, to our children,
as a seamless web of truths, metabolized by the young and taken into the mind as natural pillars of
the culture, simply accepted as "truth." So, for example, if polygamy is taught as a principle in a
nation, then the members naturally accept and adapt, regardless of any negative impact on individual
family members. Yet, learning false standards often causes lifelong havoc, as seen in the existence
of survivors of childhood sexual abuse, who often have no felt understanding of sexual mores, and
therefore struggle to adapt to stable relationships.
St. Pete gets
perfect LGBT score. Officials stood on the steps of city hall Wednesday morning [11/12/2014] to
herald the city's latest accolade, its recent perfect score on LGBT issues. The grade comes from
the Human Rights Campaign's nationwide Municipal Equality Index, which bases its scores on city
policies pertaining to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender issues. These include granting
benefits to same-sex partners of city employees and barring discrimination based on gender identity citywide.
Trouble
In Transtopia: Murmurs Of Sex Change Regret. Everyone has regrets. Some of us have big
regrets. Most everyone has some place to go to get help dealing with them. Except for, say, a guy
who had sex-change surgery and now would like to have his penis back. (The one God gave him.) Our
culture seems pretty much "to each his own" when it comes to elective bodily mutilation and the regret thereof.
And there's a lot of regret out there.
What
Do Gays Really Want From The Church? The question that is most puzzling to me is why
did the gay couple choose to do business with that particular wedding chapel? Were there not any
other places that they could have gone (such as the Justice of the Peace) to have their wedding
performed? Why did the gay couple in Colorado approach the Christian Bakery? Were there no
other bakeries in their city or town? It appears that the gay community is targeting Christians
and the Christian church. If that is indeed the case, what do they want from the church?
Fighting
Back against LGBT Fascism: What You Can Do. Since the story broke about the Human
Rights Campaign's slanderous persecution of the very people their group was designed to
protect — bisexuals and children of same-sex couples — I have received a great
deal of support from people. While it was nerve-wracking to have the truth about the 26 months of
harassment by GLAAD, the Human Rights Campaign, Scott Rosenzweig, Jeremy Hooper, and a host of other
totalitarians circulate at my job, it has been healthy. My colleagues and students had no idea
about the extent of this campaign of suppression, censorship, and harassment. Now they know the
truth behind those equals-sign bumper stickers.
The
Special Treatment Homosexuals Demand. Since the [Catholic] Church has always welcomed
[people with same-sex attraction], the issue is not one of accepting "homosexuals." The activists
want the Church to accept homosexuality. Perhaps this is stating the obvious for many, but
framing this properly illustrates its absurdity. The activists want a special dispensation from
Church sexual teaching — and, of course, this can be applied to all of traditionalist
Christianity — for their particular behavior. But consider where this leaves us: Is the
Church supposed to say adultery is a sin, fornication is a sin, self-gratification is a sin, viewing pornography
is a sin, but homosexuality is, what? A lifestyle choice, sort of like living on a houseboat?
Transgender
federal employee wins historic discrimination case. The U.S. Office of Special Counsel
on Thursday announced a landmark determination that the Department of the Army engaged in "frequent,
pervasive and humiliating," gender-identity discrimination against Tamara Lusardi, a veteran and
civilian Army software specialist who transitioned from male to female. Lusardi was working in
the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Research, Development and Engineering Center ("AMRDEC") in
Redstone, Ala., when she transitioned from male to female in 2010. During that time, the Army
improperly restricted her restroom usage, referred to her with male pronouns and by her birth name
and stopped giving her work, the OSC said in a report released Thursday [10/23/2014].
The Editor says...
As for the purported victim in this case, his / her troubles were brought upon himself / herself and were all
completely avoidable. By accommodating these complaints, the government will make matters worse in the
long run, and by publicizing them, the Washington Post will help to normalize situations like this one.
Transgender
Soldiers Meet In DC, Want Ban On Military Service Struck Down. Transgender military
personnel from a number of American allied countries met in Washington, D.C. this week to discuss
what they say are the benefits of allowing open transgenders in active military service. [...]
Advocates and many in the medical and scientific field believe that people are not born with a
specific gender but are assigned one at birth, but that assignment may not match up to the person's
"gender identity" such that a man may believe he is really a woman and vice versa.
Federal
civil rights official calls Houston pastor subpoenas 'abuse of government power'. A
member of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights in a letter Wednesday [10/22/2014] called Houston Mayor Annise
Parker's subpoena of church pastors "an abuse of government power" and urged the mayor to withdraw
the court documents. Commissioner Peter Kirsanow said that the subpoenas, even after being
amended to remove a request for church sermons, still appear to be "a blatant attempt to punish
these pastors for expressing their religiously based political views."
Houston's
First Amendment Problem. The recent questionably unconstitutional moves by the Houston
city council to subpoena the sermons of five area ministers, as well as internal correspondence
dealing with social issues, should have the American Civil Liberties Union and everyone else who
believes in free speech and religious freedom up in arms. We as Americans must guard every aspect
of our Constitution and recognize when it is being threatened. One of the great dangers in America
today is extreme intolerance in the name of tolerance. For example, in this Houston case, it is
presupposed that the pastors in question may have said something that was objectionable to the
homosexual community. In order to prove that we are tolerant of the homosexual lifestyle,
we as a society allow gays to be intolerant of anyone who disagrees with them in any way.
Twitter
blocks petition supporting Houston pastors. Twitter is in business to boost numbers.
Angering a huge swath of their users wouldn't be good for business.
Sermonizing Pols.
In a time of triumphant secularism, politicians treat the religious with increasing contempt. It was
only a matter of time before headlines about government demanding the sermons of pastors appeared in
the United States. Seeing themselves as superior to the religious, secularists feel entitled to
bully pastors who impede their political plans. [...] The openly lesbian Houston mayor Annise Parker
clearly adheres to secularist philosophy. Outraged that pastors would dare challenge her
transgender bathrooms ordinance through a referendum drive, she unleashed lawyers on them.
ACLU not happy
with Houston Mayor Annise Parker. Following a brutal battle over a city ordinance
which many believed was an egregious encroachment of local government into the territory of
religious freedom, Parker, Houston's first openly gay mayor, subpoenaed the full text of sermons
mentioning her name or anything having to do with homosexuality. Right leaning citizens weren't
the only ones to shirk from Parker's drastic and seemingly vindictive actions. The ACLU and other
liberal leaning organizations expressed grave concern with Parker's unprecedented overreach.
Idaho
pastors opposed to gay marriage sue city over law. Two pastors in Idaho, who fear they
could be penalized for refusing to perform newly legal gay marriages at their private wedding
chapel, have filed a lawsuit, saying an Idaho anti-discrimination law violates their right to free
speech and religious liberty.
'LGBT': The 'T' is for Tyranny.
Unlike Vegas, what happens in Houston will, most definitely, not stay in Houston — not if
Democrats continue to have their way. Houstonians elected themselves, as mayor, an extremist
lesbian Democrat (but I repeat myself). She quickly, and quite naturally, took to doing what
extremist lesbian Democrats do. Annise Parker is her name, and spreading political Ebola is her
game. That and trampling the U.S. Constitution. As you've likely heard, Parker's office has
illegally subpoenaed the sermons and privileged communications of a number of Christian pastors who
vocally opposed the city's ironically branded "Equal Rights Ordinance" (aka, the Houston Bathroom Bill).
Texas
Lesbian Democrat Reveals Her Party's Anti-Christian Agenda. This has legal ramifications far beyond
Houston, and is by no means limited to the issue of same-sex marriage. What you see, if you look at this in a
larger legal and cultural context, is that liberals have decided the "equal protection" clause of the Fourteenth
Amendment trumps everything else in the Constitution or in Anglo-American common-law tradition, and that there is no
protection whatsoever to those who oppose the "emerging awareness" doctrine proclaimed by the Supreme Court in the
2003 Lawrence v. Texas case.
'LGBT': The 'T' is for Tyranny.
Washington state, dateline 2012: Colleen is just like the girl next door. Well, sort of.
Colleen has a penis. So, I guess, unless the girl next door has a penis, Coleen really isn't much like
her at all. But that's beside the point. In Washington you must, under penalty of law, pretend, along
with Colleen and Democrats that, in the face of both reality and sanity, Colleen really is like the girl next door.
This includes letting Colleen, who is actually a 47-year-old dude named Clay Scott Francis, lay naked and "sprawled out
in a sauna exposing himself" to girls as young as 6 years old. This really happened in the ladies locker room
at Evergreen State College. It's only fair, you see, because, as Clay, er, "Colleen," complained, and as police
agreed, this sick bastard was "discriminated against" when he was asked to leave on behalf of a terrorized 17-year-old girl.
Christians
Can't Accept Houston's Intimidation Tactics Without Protest. Perhaps seeing the totalitarianism of extremist
wings of the gay rights movement has soured some people on efforts to change marriage law — or at least given
people pause about the tradeoffs involved with redefining marriage or enacting broad legislation around sexual or gender
identity. We've all seen the stories about lawsuits against small business owners. The boycotts against companies
for harboring employees who haven't jumped on the bandwagon and therefore believe marriage is essentially built around sexual
complementarity. The public outrage of enthused mobs believing themselves to be on the right side of history.
Sen.
Cruz criticizes Houston over sermon subpoenas. Houston city attorneys are no longer
seeking through subpoenas sermons from five pastors who publicly opposed an ordinance banning
discrimination against gay and transgender residents.
Houston Demands
Oversight Of Sermons. Officials with the city of Houston, Texas, who are defending a
controversial ordinance that would allow men to use women's restrooms now have demanded to see the
sermons preached by several area pastors. The recent move came in a subpoena from the city to
pastors for copies of their sermons and other communications in the city's legal defense of a
"non-discrimination" measure that allows "gender-confused" people to use public restrooms designated
for the opposite sex. A lawsuit challenging Houston's move alleges the city violated its own
charter in its adoption of the Equal Rights Ordinance, which in May designated homosexuals and
transgender persons as a protected class.
Even
in Houston, Texas, You Will Be Made to Care. Houston, TX is not thought of as a
bastion of liberalism, but it has gone quite rapidly off the deep end. Earlier this year,
Houston's City Council voted on non-discrimination legislation that provides equal protection to the
entire swath of the BLTGCZQDLMAO alphabet silliness. In short, if a guy decides he's a girl and
wants to go hang out in the girl's bathroom, it is a-okay in Houston, or it would be except the law
will not be enforced pending a court challenge.
Big
Brother in Texas: Houston Demands Pastors Turn Over Sermon Notes, Private Communications. After
decades of warnings on the right about liberal politicians threatening religious liberty, a Democratic mayor in
Texas is now subpoenaing pastors to turn over their sermons. Houston city officials are demanding that
city pastors opposed to Houston's "Bathroom Bill" — "a law that allows members of the opposite sex
into each other's restrooms" — turn over sermon notes and "communications with church members" to
ascertain which pastors have (or haven't) "opposed or criticized the city."
Catholic
Bishops in 'Seismic' Opening Toward Gays. Catholic bishops signaled a radical shift in
tone Monday about accepting gays into the church, saying they had gifts to offer and that their

Human
Rights Commission Says the Freedom to Practice Religion Is not a Human Right. The
Human Rights Commission of Lexington KY justifies the gay fascist bullying campaign against
Christian businesses who don't wish to participate in gay weddings and other events by saying
Christians should only be allowed to practice religion within their homes and churches.
Gay
Activist Group Changes Name to Include 'Bisexuals, Transgender and Queer'. The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force announced
today [10/8/2014] that it is changing its name and "upping its game to deliver full LGBTQ freedom, justice and equality." The new name,
the National LGBTQ Task Force, "adds bisexual, transgender and queer to lesbian and gay in the form of LGBTQ."
Commission
says Christian business owners should leave religion at home. The Human Rights Commission in Lexington, Kentucky has a
chilling message for Christian business owners who refuse service to LGBT organizations: leave your religion at home.
"It would be safe to do so, yes," Executive Director Raymond Sexton told me. "Or in this case you can find yourself two years
down the road and you're still involved in a legal battle because you did not do so." On Tuesday [10/7/2014], a Lexington Human
Rights Commission hearing examiner issued a recommended ruling that the owner of a T-shirt company violated a local ordinance against
sexual-orientation discrimination.
Judge
Wants To Force A Printer To Make Pro-Gay T-Shirts. An administrative law judge has ruled that a Kentucky
printer's refusal to print gay pride t-shirts "constitutes unlawful discrimination," and, by extension, that printers
cannot refuse to print materials promoting ideas they disagree with.
The
Semblance of Normalcy. It is not just that gay rights activists want "the rights
everybody else has." The strong undercurrent to that is that gay rights activists want all the
semblances of normalcy. To take the long time social stigma out of being gay requires that gay men
and women are able to lead their lives exactly as everyone else. In effect, it is to make being gay
just a different version of normal. Marriage is but one part of it. The march toward normalcy now
must get even more shrill with more people being forced to care because of American views on
homosexuality as reflected in a new Pew poll.
CDC:
Gay Men Represent 2 Percent Of US Population, 52 Percent Of People With HIV. Gay,
bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM) make up 2 percent of the U.S. population but are
the group most definitively affected by HIV, with 63 percent of those newly infected by HIV representing
this group. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's weekly "Morbidity and Mortality" report
shows that among persons newly infected with HIV in 2010, 63 percent were men who have sex with
other men.
Explosion
Of Sexually Transmitted Infections In London's Gay Community. Whilst gay and bisexual
men represent less than 4 percent of London's population they are responsible for 84 percent of
syphilis cases and 65 percent of gonorrhoea cases in the capital. A new study from Public Health
England (PHE), reported on by Pink News, suggested that around a quarter of all reported cases of sexually
transmitted infections (STI) are diagnosed in gay men.
The other half attended public schools, and don't know what sin is.
Half
of Americans Believe Gay Sex Is a Sin. This has been a big year for gay rights in America. In state
after state, either judges or voters have affirmed the constitutionality of same-sex marriage, and public support for gay
unions reached an all-time high. But there's still a tension between the acknowledgement of gay rights and the
acceptance of gayness itself. A new Pew poll on religion in public life found that exactly half of respondents
said they consider "homosexual behavior" sinful, a five-percentage-point increase since May 2013. This view is most
prominent among white evangelicals and black protestants; more than three-quarters of each group said they see gay sex
as a sin.
Is
Caring About Climate Change an Essential Part of LGBT Identity? Since the beginning of
the contemporary LGBT movement [...] activists have roughly divided into two camps. The first is
basically liberal and seeks to win incremental victories, gain equal rights, and more or less
assimilate into the mainstream of American society. [...] The second group is more radical.
It doesn't want to assimilate into the mainstream, it wants to transform it.
Federal
Appeals Court Upholds New Jersey's Ban On Gay Conversion Therapy For Minors. A federal appeals court ruled
Thursday [9/11/2014] to uphold New Jersey's law prohibiting medical professionals in the state from practicing gay conversion
therapy, or efforts to turn gay people straight, on people under the age of 18. The 3rd Circuit Circuit Court of Appeals
affirmed a November 2013 ruling that found the state's law, called A3371, which prohibits therapists from performing treatment
attempting to change sexual orientation or gender identity on minors, as constitutional.
South
Carolina teen sues DMV over license photo. The family of a South Carolina teenager who
was ordered to remove his makeup before taking a driver's license photo this year has filed a
federal lawsuit against the state Department of Motor Vehicles, according to court records. Chase
Culpepper, a 16-year-old who identifies as male but wears makeup and women's clothing on a regular
basis, was ordered to remove his makeup by DMV officials when he tried to obtain his driver's license in March.
Feds Still
Studying Why Lesbians Are Obese. The federal government is still seeking answers as to
why the majority of lesbians are obese and U.S. taxpayers are footing the bill, which now totals
$2.87 million. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) study is now in its fourth year, receiving
an additional $670,567 for fiscal year 2014. The project seeks to determine why "nearly three-quarters
of adult lesbians overweight or obese," and why gay males are not. In just two years the project's
budget has nearly doubled, growing from $1.5 million to nearly $3 million today, despite fears
that sequestration could jeopardize the project and other NIH funding.
Gay
illegal immigrants demand deportation protection. Gay immigrants are mounting a
campaign to demand that they be included in any unilateral moves President Obama makes this year to
halt deportations, arguing that they face unusual circumstances that otherwise might leave them on
the outside. The demands pose a tricky test for Mr. Obama, who has made major inroads with gay
rights groups during his time in the White House, but who will have to draw lines somewhere as he
seeks to craft a more lenient deportation policy without canceling deportations altogether.
D.C.'s
Congressional Cemetery to host LGBT veterans memorial in 'gay corner'. The nation's
first-ever memorial to gay military veterans will be placed in the "gay corner" of the historic
Congressional Cemetery on Capitol Hill, home to the gravesites of senators, congressmen, Supreme
Court justices and vice presidents. In announcing the new memorial, cemetery President Paul K.
Williams said the stone structure will be put close to "the 'gay corner,' thought to be the only
LGBT cemetery section in the world."
Gay
Leaders Upset by Low CDC Population Numbers: 'Political Influence Matters'. Gay
leaders are expressing alarm at the just-released numbers from the Center for Disease Control that
place the percentage of Americans identifying as homosexual at only 1.6% of the adult population.
That would mean the total number of gays in American is roughly 3.8 million, roughly 1.5 million
less than the total number of American Methodists.
Health
survey gives government its first large-scale data on gay, bisexual population. Less
than 3 percent of the U.S. population identify themselves as gay, lesbian or bisexual, the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention reported Tuesday [7/15/2014] in the first large-scale government
survey measuring Americans' sexual orientation. The National Health Interview Survey, which is
the government's premier tool for annually assessing Americans' health and behaviors, found that
1.6 percent of adults self-identify as gay or lesbian, and 0.7 percent consider themselves bisexual.
Lesbian,
gay, and bisexual Americans more likely to smoke and drink excessively. Lesbian, gay,
and bisexual people may be more likely to smoke and drink excessively, a major new study has found.
The new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also found that 1.6% of
Americans identified as gay or lesbian, and 0.7% identified as bisexual.
CDC:
Gay Population 2.3%; Thanks to Media, Americans Think Number is 13 Times Higher.
Everyone knows there are gays and lesbians in everybody's family. And no office would be complete
without a sassy gay character. And just about every other kid in high school is wresting with his
sexuality. I know. I watch TV. Except it isn't true, and the Centers for Disease Control just
proved it. A new comprehensive study by the CDC with over 33,000 participants has confirmed earlier
estimates; less than 3 percent of the U.S. population self-identifies as gay, lesbian or bisexual.
Earlier, much smaller-scale surveys have put that number at 4 percent.
Housing
Dispute Puts Quaker University at Front of Fight Over Transgender Issues. A growing number of openly transgender
students have forced schools around the country to address questions so basic that they were rarely asked just a few years ago,
much less answered: What defines a person's gender, and who gets to decide? A small Christian college here, George
Fox University, has become the latest front in this fight, refusing to recognize as male a student who was born anatomically female.
JAMA
opinion piece calls for ending lifetime ban on blood donation by gay men. Gay marriage
laws and court rulings against sexual-orientation discrimination are all signs that it's time for
the federal government to change its blood-donor policy for gay and bisexual men, authors said in a
commentary released Saturday [7/19/2014]. The lifetime ban for blood donation by men who have sex
with men (MSM) "may be perpetuating outdated homophobic perceptions," wrote Dr. Eli Y. Adashi of
Brown University and scholars I. Glenn Cohen and Jeremy Feigenbaum, both of Harvard Law School, in
the July 23/30 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Truth
Telling and the Abuse of Language. It was only a couple of years ago that the world sported
only two genders of human beings — male and female. Now Facebook allows folks to self-identify into
50 possibilities, only two of which are truly genders. I find this particularly perplexing. Do
we have gender designations for gays, lesbians, bisexuals, the transgendered who dress in drag but haven't
had surgery, the transgendered who have had surgery but it didn't go well? Do we differentiate between
the men who have become women and the women who have become men? The 97% of us who are not confused
about all of this are now called cisgendered instead of straight. Governor Brown in California has ruled
against the use of the terms husband and wife in public documents. What will go next, mother and father?
Massachusetts
city ends contract with Christian college over gay rights. Salem, Massachusetts, put
an end to a long-time contract with the Christian-based Gordon College after administrators refused
to cave to the gay-rights movement and remove a ban on "homosexual behavior" among students and
staff. The contract between the two entities was a "reciprocal arrangement where we provided
management of the facility in exchange for using it for educational programs connected to Gordon,
and as well as 'curation' experiences for history majors at Gordon," Rick Sweeney, the vice
president of marketing and communications at the college, told the Christian Post. The contract,
in place since 2008, was actually due to wrap in August, but Salem officials decided to use the
opt-out clause and exit the agreement early, The Blaze reported.
British
filmmakers ordered to provide gay, racial diversity on screen. British filmmakers must
now meet new targets for ethnic minority, gay and female characters on- and off-screen if they wish
to continue receiving funding from Britain's largest public film fund. The British Film Institute
has revealed its "Three Ticks" scheme, which will be implemented in September to ensure diversity in
films and behind the scenes, The Telegraph reported. Films must "tick" at least two of three
criteria: on-screen diversity; off-screen diversity and "creating opportunities and social
mobility," the paper reported.
Taking
the New Sexual Fascism Seriously. There is a mass movement aimed at stifling the
autonomy of natural relationships — friendships, familial love, romantic love, human
reverence for the divine — and subverting such relationships to the punitive power of an
intrusive state. It is as sweeping and menacing as past isms, including fascism, to which it
reveals a number of striking resemblances. It is difficult to comprehend, partly because it
operates so often with emotional subterfuge, and partly because it is unprecedented. It is less
nationalistic than past fascisms, though more invasive and consuming because it polices interpersonal
relationships and interior thoughts in a way that earlier police states did not. I have come to
realize, though, that it is violent, even though we tend not to think of the movement as violent
because many still stereotype gays as delicate, and the violence is usually carried out through the
seemingly legitimate auspices of the state.

King in San Francisco releases pro-gay 'Proud Whopper'. The Proud Whopper is no different in

Letting the IRS Get
Away with It. Someone at the IRS leaked the donor lists to a man called Matthew
Meisel, a gay activist in Boston. Meisel in turn passed it on to the gay group Human Rights
Campaign (whose president was a national co-chair of the Obama re-election campaign), and HRC in
turn published the list of donors, which was subsequently re-published by The Huffington Post.
There's no secret about why they'd do such a thing. As we know, if you disagree with progressive
orthodoxy, you have no right to host a cable-TV home-decor show or give a commencement address at
an American university or be a beauty-queen contestant. But that's not enough for these groups.
If you're not a public figure, if you're just a Californian who puts up a yard sign or a bumper
sticker on Proposition Eight, your car will be keyed and your house defaced.
Thousands
turn out for Trans March in S.F. Thousands of people descended on Dolores Park on
Friday afternoon [6/27/2014] for the nation's biggest transgender pride event, the 11th annual
Trans March, before moving the celebration to the site of the Compton's Cafeteria Riot at Turk and
Taylor streets in San Francisco. Once at the site of the one of the most important transgender
riots in U.S. history, city officials unveiled a street sign honoring the late Vicki Marlane, one
of San Francisco's legendary performers. The Board of Supervisors in April approved a resolution
to recognize the pioneer, who died of an AIDS-related illness in 2011.
Federal
Appeals Court Strikes Down Utah's Same-Sex Marriage Ban. For the first time, a
federal appeals court has struck down a state's ban on same-sex marriage. A three-judge panel of
the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver voted 2-1 that Utah's ban is unconstitutional. "We
hold that the Fourteenth Amendment protects the fundamental right to marry, establish a family,
raise children, and enjoy the full protection of a state's marital laws. A state may not deny the
issuance of a marriage license to two persons, or refuse to recognize their marriage, based solely
upon the sex of the persons in the marriage union," the court said.
How
The Trans-Agenda Seeks To Redefine Everyone. In November, the U.S. Senate voted in favor of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act
(ENDA). The law is based on the assumption that one's perceived "gender identity" does not always
"match" your sex "assigned" or "designated" at birth. So, the thinking goes, the law should allow a
more ambiguous array of gender identities: male, female, both, neither, or something else entirely.
It's not an overstatement to say that ENDA is a huge step, mostly under the radar, to codify a new
definition of humanity.
Sex Change Regrets.
While some might find the story laughable, I personally find it tragic: Don Ennis, an experienced TV news producer was fired
from his job, allegedly for performance-related issues, after reappearing as Dawn Stacey Ennis, marking his third gender change since
last year. [...] It would appear that Ennis is quite troubled and in need of serious help, but even to suggest such a thing is to be
branded transphobic and hateful.
Former
Johns Hopkins Psychiatrist: Transgender Surgery Isn't the Solution. A former psychiatrist in chief at
Johns Hopkins Hospital has written an explosive editorial at the Wall Street Journal saying, "Policy makers
and the media are doing no favors either to the public or the transgendered by treating their confusions as a right
in need of defending rather than as a mental disorder that deserves understanding, treatment and prevention."
Dr. Paul McHugh, the former chair of the Department of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins, challenges the notion that
sex-reassignment surgery is good for transgendered persons and provides statistics to back up his assertions.
The
'Transgender Tipping Point' to Censorship. Now that our cultural elites feel they
have sufficiently educated the public on the virtues of gays and lesbians, it's time to drill down
to the next level. Here comes transgenderism. Time magazine placed "Orange Is the New Black" star
Laverne Cox (born Charles Cox) on the cover as the face of "The Transgender Tipping Point:
America's Next Civil Rights Frontier." Cox wrote on Facebook that the Time cover was a wonderful
present on her birthday, and "I realize this is way bigger than me and about a tipping point in our
nation's history where it is no longer acceptable for trans lives to be stigmatized, ridiculed,
criminalized and disregarded."
Gay-rights
groups endorse Charlie Crist for governor. The largest gay-rights groups in Florida
and the nation endorsed Democrat Charlie Crist on Thursday, a turnaround for the former Republican
governor who once helped enshrine a same-sex marriage ban in the state's Constitution.
Here's a clue about the origins of homosexuality:
Satanic
Temple: Gay Marriage is 'a Sacrament'. The Satanic Temple, which gained international notoriety in May when it tried
to hold a Black Mass reenactment at Harvard University, said one of the issues it feels strongly
about is "gay rights" and explained that homosexual marriage is "a sacrament," just like heterosexual
marriage. The Satanic Temple (TST) spokesman, Lucien Greaves, who reportedly is a graduate of Harvard
University, explained why TST focuses on gay rights in a recent interview with the Detroit Metro Times and
expanded on those views in an email to CNSNews.com.
Book:
Is Homosexual Acceptance Making America's Institutions Weaker? In his new book,
Making Gay Okay: How Rationalizing Homosexual Behavior is Changing Everything, Robert R.
Reilly argues that the American public is being forced to think that homosexuality is morally
acceptable. Reilly contends that the gay movement transformed from an initial plea for tolerance
into a movement that forcefully demands universal acceptance by all societal institutions.
Reilly told Breitbart Executive Chairman Stephen K. Bannon in an interview on Breitbart News Sunday
[6/8/2014] [...] that, in government today, the gay agenda is so pervasive that no one can
"participate at the cabinet level without participating in a gay pride proclamation or participate
in a gay pride parade."
Gay, transgender
Americans to get markers in parks. The announcement Friday that the National Park Service will
begin installing markers at places of importance to the history of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender
Americans is a step toward including them in the national narrative — and components of education,
supporters said.
Houston
Mayor Forces All to Open Girls Rooms to Men. Houston's bathrooms, showers, and dressing facilities will now be
open to all, regardless of gender, gender identity, gender expression, or other predilection of gender behavior. By
an 11-6 vote of the Houston City Council, Mayor Annise Parker achieved this as the crowning jewel of her tenure as mayor.
Mayor Parker, Houston's first openly gay mayor, said passing this ordinance was not the most important thing she has done in office,
according to an article in the Fairfield Citizen, but it is the "most personally meaningful thing I will ever do as mayor."
Laverne
Cox Is Not a Woman: Facts are not subject to our feelings. The world is abuzz with
news that actor Laverne Cox has become the first transgender person to appear on the cover of
Time magazine. If I understand the current state of the ever-shifting ethic and rhetoric
of transgenderism, that is not quite true: Bradley Manning, whom we are expected now to call
Chelsea, beat Cox to the punch by some time. Manning's announcement of his intention to begin
living his life as a woman and to undergo so-called sex-reassignment surgery came after
Time's story, but, given that we are expected to defer to all subjective experience in the
matter of gender identity, it could not possibly be the case that Manning is a transgendered person
today but was not at the time of the Time cover simply because Time was unaware of
the fact, unless the issuance of a press release is now a critical step in the evolutionary
process.
Laverne
Cox heralds 'transgender tipping point' on cover of Time. Cox has received several
awards for her work as the first transgender black woman to have a leading role on a mainstream US
television show. Despite these groundbreaking achievements, Time's annual list of the 100 most
influential people failed to include Cox when it was unveiled in April.
Harvey Milk stamp's debut
celebrated in S.F., D.C. U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin looked out at the crowd of politicians, federal officials and gay activists
who had been invited to the White House on what would have been Harvey Milk's 84th birthday. The occasion was the U.S. Postal
Service's first day of issue Thursday [5/22/2014] for a stamp honoring the slain San Francisco supervisor and gay rights leader.
But as the venue would suggest, this was about a lot more than a stamp.
D.C.
adoption law draws lesbians from Va., other states to give birth here. Twin daughters were born last week to Desiree
Bryan and her wife, Stephanie, but the path they've chosen to motherhood is not yet complete. The lesbian couple live in
Midlothian, Va., near Richmond. The commonwealth does not recognize either their 2010 marriage in the District or Stephanie's
parentage of the girls, who grew from her fertilized eggs implanted in and carried by Desiree. So the Bryans delivered their
girls in the District. It was a two-hour drive from home, friends and family, but it's a place that offers the surest way for
Lily Mae and Mia Lynn to have two mothers in the eyes of the law.
'Duck
Dynasty' star Phil Robertson likens homosexuals to thieves, drunks in videotaped sermon. Phil Robertson included
remarks in a sermon in his church West Monroe, Louisiana that harken back to the "Duck Dynasty" star's past anti-gay remarks.
Robertson included homosexuals with other groups, including thieves, drunks and adulterers, as hell-bound sinners in a sermon he gave
on Easter that was recorded and put up on the church's website. "Neither the sexually immoral, nor the idolators, nor
adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexual offenders, nor thieves, nor greedy, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor swindlers
will inherit the kingdom of God," Robertson said, paraphrasing a verse from Corinthians in the Bible. Robertson's rep tells
FOX411 that "he was in a church quoting the Bible," but would offer no further comment.
Gay-Marriage
Decisions Read Like GLAAD Press Releases Now. A district judge in Pennsylvania ruled yesterday that the state
is obligated to recognize same-sex marriages. Given the sensitivity of the issue, the judge must have taken extra caution
to present a sober, impartial analysis of the relevant case law, right? Of course not. His decision reads like a
press release from a gay-rights organization, replete with emotional appeals, loaded terminology, and rhetorical flourishes.
While reading the first paragraph of the decision, keep in mind that the author is supposed to be a neutral arbiter of the law: [...]
Rainbow Flag Flies Over U.S.
Embassy In Madrid. The Obama administration seems to have forgotten the International Day of the Family last week that
was celebrated at the UN and around the world May 15. Yet the administration was very enthusiastic about the May 17th
celebration of the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia, issuing proclamations by the Secretary of Defense and a
statement by the President. Moreover, at least one ambassador flew the rainbow flag over his embassy.
LGBT
Tyranny Can Take Your First Amendment Rights Away. We are too apathetic. We allow a
small minority of people to take our freedoms away because we care more about being politically
correct than we do about protecting our Bill of Rights. We are allowing a bank to discriminate
against Christians. While I support the rights of LGBTs, I don't believe Americans can be
comfortable with losing their First Amendment rights because not everyone agrees with everything
LGBTs do. We need to start fighting back. [...] LGBTs now have the power to get people fired
and ruin their businesses and careers. Americans should be outraged.
Cultural
double standard: Michael Sam, Tim Tebow and free speech. Once, Social Security was
the "third rail" of politics. Touch it and face political death. Now it is homosexuality.
Criticize anything gay people do and you risk ostracism, fines, suspension or loss of your livelihood.
Gaslighting America Out of Existence.
[An] excellent example of gaslighting is the top-down normalization of homosexuality, which has
been almost universally regarded as a repugnant aberration throughout human history. Now we are
told it is normal, and that it is not perverts who are sick, but you for thinking there is
something wrong with perversion. If you don't enjoy watching football players engage in
passionate kisses with their homosexual boyfriends on television, you are a defective person.
Kerry
Commemorates 'International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia'. Secretary of
State John Kerry has put out a statement "Commemorating International Day Against Homophobia and
Transphobia," which is today [5/16/2014]. "Today of all days, we are reminded that the cause of justice can
and must triumph over hatred and prejudice. This is a day of action for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and
transgender (LGBT) communities and their allies all over the world. It is time to reaffirm our
commitment to the equality and dignity of all persons, regardless of their sexual orientation or
gender identity," said Kerry in a statement.
CDC:
Syphilis Resurgence Among Gay Men 'Major Public Health Concern'. The sometimes-deadly
disease syphilis is exploding in the United States, with most of the increase since 1995 among men
who have sex with men (MSM), according to a new report from the Atlanta-based Center for Disease
Control (CDC). As recently as 2000, researchers believed the total elimination of syphilis was
within reach. The recent dramatic increases in infections, coupled with the observation that
syphilis closely tracks with other diseases like AIDS, have the medical and scientific community
deeply concerned. 
Michael Sam the
Sham. If you Google "Michael Sam just wants to play football," some 67 million
results pop up. He also flatly stated that he "wanted to stop talking about his sexual orientation"
and "let (his) work on the field speak for itself" in a radio interview, among other places.
Yeah, right. Nothing says that quite like licking icing off the mouth of another dude on national
TV. And I'm sure the new Oprah TV series will have nothing to do with sexual orientation either.
In other words, we now know what Michael Sam is a sham.
Liberals'
Dark Ages. The touchstone of liberalism is tolerance of differing ideas. Yet this mob
exists to enforce conformity of thought and to delegitimize any dissent from its sanctioned worldview.
Intolerance is its calling card. Each week seems to bring another incident. Last week it was
David and Jason Benham, whose pending HGTV show was canceled after the mob unearthed old remarks the
brothers made about their Christian beliefs on homosexuality. People can't have a house-flipping
show unless they believe and say the "right" things in their life off the set?
Christian
Brotherhood an Impeachable Offense; Gay Incest Celebrated. Just in the last week, in the latest blitz of
gay über alles, at the provocation of groups like GLAAD and Right Wing Watch, a newspaperman was sacked in
Iowa and an entire show on HGTV was canceled because of editors and two handsome blond brothers adhering to the
millennia-old strictures about chastity. If you are a pair of gorgeous brothers dedicating your life to
building homes for the poor, but you criticize homosexuality, you must be stripped of your life's work and
publicly humiliated. But if you are a pair of gorgeous brothers who decide to have unprotected anal
sex with each other in front of the camera, the gay community will shower you with praise.

Warriors Coach Fired for Christian Views on Homosexuality. Was Golden State Warriors head coach
Mark Jackson fired for his Christian views on gay marriage? That's what Ann Killion is asking at sfgate.com,
noting that Jackson's lukewarm reaction to the coming-out of Jason Collins, last year was something of a mismatch
for the Bay Area, which is the global capital of gay politics and culture.
Delaware
Deputy Attorney General charged with Grindr rape of underage boy. A Delaware Deputy Attorney General
has been arrested for sexually assaulting an underage boy he met on Grindr. Daniel Simmons, 34, of Wilmington,
met the 16-year-old boy on the popular gay and bisexual dating app earlier this year, authorities said. He has
been charged with four counts of fourth-degree rape for his encounters with the teen, according to the Delaware News Journal.
State
lawmaker stands by his condemnation of gay sex. A state lawmaker from Sioux Falls is
being mocked, criticized and praised for an Internet posting in which he accused doctors of covering
up the negative health risks associated with anal sex. "Certainly there are board-certified
doctors in our state who will attest to what seems self-evident to so many: gay sex is not good for
the body or mind," Republican Rep. Steve Hickey wrote in an April 28 post on his Facebook page.
Hickey, who also is a pastor at Church of the Gate in Sioux Falls, said he would question the
judgment of any doctor who disagrees with his assessment, and he asked whether the medical community
isn't speaking out because they "feel silenced and intimidated."
Gay
'conversion therapy bans stall across the nation. A movement to ban the controversial
practice of "conversion therapy" that counsels gay children and teens on how to become straight is
meeting with unexpected problems after the easy passage of bills in California and New Jersey.
State lawmakers in New York are planning a public hearing on a bill to ban conversion therapy in
the state this month, but similar measures have floundered in as many as nine other state
legislatures. Supporters insist they still have political momentum to pass more bans on sexual
orientation change efforts for minors, with one top campaigner saying the delays at the state level
are only a temporary setback.
In my opinion, this guy lives in more than one prison.
Judge
Orders Resumption of Hormone Treatment for Ohio Transgendered Inmate. A federal judge
in Ohio has ordered the reinstatement of a transgendered inmate's hormone therapy so that he can
maintain his status as a female. Inmate Whitney Lee, 36, housed at the Mansfield Correctional
Institution, had been receiving hormone therapy since 1999, but the state of Ohio stopped the therapy in 2012.
Possible
Petition Drive To Get Transgender Rights Bill On Ballot. The bill approved by lawmakers
this year would add gender identity to race, sex, religion and sexual orientation to receive protection
under the state's anti-discrimination laws in employment, credit, housing and public accommodations.
Republicans who opposed the bill in this year's legislative debate dubbed it the "bathroom bill."
They argued that men would use the protections of the legislation to go into women's bathrooms and
attack women and girls.

Meningitis
Outbreak in L.A.'s Gay Community, Three Dead. In what the Los Angeles Times is referring
to as a meningitis outbreak in L.A.'s gay community, since January 1 there have been eight occurrences of
invasive meningococcal disease in L.A. County. Four of those cases have been of gay men, and three of
those four have died, officials reported Thursday [4/3/2014]. North Hollywood and West Hollywood were
identified in the Times report as the areas where the sickened men socialized.
India's Supreme Court creates official third sex for eunuchs and
transgenders. India's Supreme Court has created an official third sex for its transgender eunuchs
and announced they will have a quota of government jobs and college places to help them overcome discrimination.
The decision was met with jubilation by transgender charities who said it was a milestone in their fight against
marginalisation in Indian society.
The Editor says...
People who undergo a sex change have no room to complain about discrimination, because they have brought
their freakishly unnatural conditions upon themselves. There was a time in this country, not too long ago,
when surgery of this kind was unthinkable, and anyone who shopped for a doctor to perform such an operation was
likely to be locked up in the psych ward.
Maryland's bathroom bill
benefits few transgenders, puts all girls at risk from pedophiles. Maryland moms and dads will now have to
be more vigilant when their children use public bathrooms. It will soon be legal for a man who simply says he
identifies as a woman to use the ladies' room. This serious risk for sexual assaults of women and little girls
is all in the name of political correctness. And this is just the latest in a string of successes by the transgender
lobby. On Friday, the Maryland House passed legislation that prohibits discrimination based on "gender identity"
in employment, housing, credit and public accommodations — which, most disturbingly, includes restrooms.
Official
Policy: Male Federal Workers Can Use Women's Restrooms, Locker Rooms. When an expectant mother visits
her doctor for an ultrasound, the doctor invariably asks: Do you want to know the sex of your child? The
Obama administration, however, does not believe an unborn child has a sex — even when a doctor sees
indisputable physical evidence. Obama's Office of Personnel Management has published what it calls "Guidance
Regarding the Employment of Transgender Individuals in the Workplace." This document speaks of "sex" as
something a person has "assigned" to them only after they make it through the birth canal.
Neither
man nor woman: Norrie wins gender appeal. In a historic decision with far-reaching implications for
institutions and individuals across the country, the court on Wednesday formally upheld the right of transgender
person Norrie to be registered as neither a man nor a woman with the NSW Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages.
The decision is recognition by the highest court in the land that "sex" is not binary — it is not only
"male" or "female" — and that this should be recognised by the law and in basic legal documents.
Media
Matters inexplicably attacks Fox News for using the term 'homosexual'. Media Matters, the website of
choice for Fox News haters everywhere, attacked the cable news network on Monday [3/24/2014] for using the term
"homosexual" in its programming — advancing the peculiar argument that the scientific term has a "pejorative
connotation." The online "media watchdog" contends that calling gay people "homosexual" is "a practice that's
quickly falling out of favor with major news outlets due the term's often pejorative connotation and frequent use by
opponents of LGBT equality." Fox News, they chide, "has yet to update its language when referring to gay and
lesbian people."

I wonder how they feel about words like sodomite, perversion, and deviant. Masking the

Joe
Biden: 'Close to Barbaric' That Businesses Can Fire Gay Employees. [Scroll down] He said it was time
for Congress to pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act — known as ENDA — which would bar

employment decisions, including hiring, firing, compensation or promotion.
5 Big Wins for
Militant Gay Pressure Groups. This has become the raison d'etre of many in the gay rights movement:
destroying the businesses of those who refuse to abide by their standards of conduct, all in the name of tolerance. And they've
been tremendously successful at it. Here are the top five recent instances of successful gay intimidation of business: [...]
A convoluted insanity defense:
Transgender
Woman Claims Former Male Self a Murderer. Authorities in Washington State believe that a series of murders of prostitutes
in 1990 were committed by Washington resident Douglas Perry. Now Perry has been captured and charged with the murders, but
Douglas has become "Donna," a transgender woman who claims that she is not responsible for the murders because Douglas no longer exists.
Enough with the Gay Mania. It's one thing to be
tolerant of what once were known as "alternative lifestyles." It's another thing to be asked to celebrate them, as the exuberant mythologizers of
Michael Sam and Johnny Weir ask us to do. And it is way beyond the pale to hold forth on any sort of sex life — perhaps apart from
self-restraint — as if it's a form of heroism. Yet the culture of the professional Left, enthusiastically aided by the establishment
media, is going bonkers in pushing active homosexuality (or any one of several exotic variants thereof) as an absolute virtue.
Obama calls
homosexuality one of our 'fundamental freedoms' in statement slamming Ugandan bill. President Barack Obama has elevated the
right to have sex with a member of the same sex to the level of universal "fundamental freedoms" in a new presidential statement criticizing
Uganda. But critics say his promotion of homosexuality in a continent that overwhelmingly opposes that behavior amounts to a form of
liberal "cultural imperialism."
The Gay Attack on American Values. In
America, gays — male and female homosexuals — represent about 3% of the population. That leaves 97% in a majority and that majority
is now under a full assault on their traditional values concerning marriage — intended only for the opposite sexes — and in some cases
on their religious faith that deems homosexuality a sin. In recent years we have seen gays achieve a legal status for same-sex marriage,
thus undermining centuries of tradition that understands marriage to be for the purpose of procreation and as the keystone of society.
Why Gays Have So Much Influence on
Our Culture. We do not talk with our neighbors or relatives about their sexual activity, be they homosexual or heterosexual.
It is not polite and we have been programmed to ignore our anxiety about their welfare. What is abominable is that our youth are being
seduced by this campaign and remain totally ignorant of any downside to their choices confusing love and lust.
CDC
releases updated STD data; syphilis, gonorrhea cases are up, chlamydia numbers are stable. Wyoming had the lowest rate, at 7.7 per 100,000 people.
The District of Columbia was the highest at 388.7 per 100,000. Ohio's rate was 142.9 per 100,000. The number of cases reported in Ohio in 2012 was 16,493,
down slightly from 2011. More than 15,000 primary and secondary syphilis cases were reported in 2012, a rate of 5 per 100,000 people. The rate increase was
solely among men, especially gay and bisexual men who represent an estimated 75 percent of cases.
Gonorrhea, Syphilis Regain Traction in U.S., CDC
Reports. While all three diseases [gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia] are curable with antibiotics, many people don't get tested as recommended, said Gail
Bolan, the director of the CDC's STD prevention division. That's especially the case for syphilis, where the rise is entirely attributable to men, particularly
those who are gay or bisexual.
Rose Parade or "Gay Pride"
Parade? You no longer need to live in California to get a taste of our progressive values. This week, it's coming to a TV set
near you. After more than 100 years of family-oriented entertainment on New Year's Day, the Tournament of Roses Parade has veered off
course. Organizers are allowing progressives to parade their political agendas around and morph a historic parade into an event more closely
resembling a gay pride parade than the Rose Parade we have come to know.
Rose Parade Gay
'Marriage' Float Degrades Family Event, Say Conservative Activists. Two homosexual men will be married on a float in the 2014 Rose
Parade on Wednesday, Jan. 1, in what critics are saying transforms the family-friendly event into a vehicle for promoting the gay rights
activists' political agenda. Aubrey Loots and Danny Leclair were chosen by the AIDS Healthcare Foundation by lottery to be married atop
a float made to resemble a wedding cake.
Fischer: Why is Magic Johnson healthy as a horse! While
the average heterosexual has somewhere between seven to 14 sexual partners in a lifetime, it is not uncommon for homosexuals to have hundreds,
even thousands, of sexual partners. Anonymous sex in public places like bathhouses, public parks and public restrooms is an all-too
frequent occurrence in the gay community, and homosexuals will frequently attempt to have multiple sexual encounters in a single night,
often with total strangers. The only way this is possible is through taking stimulants that heighten sexual pleasure and make multiple
sexual experiences possible.
The Straight Dope on Homosexuality.
How promiscuous are homosexuals? Some people argue that except for about 15% who are wildly promiscuous, homosexuals are no different from
heteros. The anti-sodomites like to quote a 1997 study from the Journal of Sex Research that polled 2,583 older homosexuals and
found that the most common number of lifetime partners fell somewhere between 101 and 500, and that 10% to 16% reported having more than 1,000.
A 2009 Australian "Gay Census" that was not restricted to age found that a quarter of homosexuals reported over 100 partners and 10% had
so many they had "no idea." The older the men were, the more likely they were to be in the over 100 or "no idea" categories.
Gay advocacy group: Obamacare
ad makes us look like 'sex-crazed lechers'. The latest sexually charged ad campaign pushing Obamacare has now offended some members
of its target audience, namely gay men. A video advertisement released shortly before Christmas by Out2Enroll, which features four young
buff men wearing tight underwear and not much else, drew an angry blast from the gay conservative organization Log Cabin Republicans.
Reality Bites Gays. Image control has been crucial
to gay activists. In 1980 Hollywood produced, Cruising, a big budget film that showed the seamier side of gay life. [...] Since then,
any filmmaker who does not conform his gay characters to a positive and largely asexual template is likely to be criticized. The arrival of
the AIDS pandemic helped reinforce this pressure by offering up a new version of a time honored movie stereotype — the terminally ill secular
saint. Today it is allowable to use a gay drama queen as a comedic foil, but only if he is also shown to have a heart of gold.
Otherwise gay characters have to be positive. In recent years such gay characters have been everywhere on TV and in movies.
Do You Believe in Magic! Could there have been any doubt as to how the media would react when, on
November 9, [1991,] Magic Johnson of the Los Angeles Lakers announced he was HIV-positive? [...] With Magic Johnson, the media and the AIDS activists scored a long-awaited
coup. CNN jumped on the Johnson story to proclaim that now "anyone can get AIDS." How curious to be told that, if a man who apparently had thousands of sex
partners can get AIDS, we are all at risk.
Two gay males to get married on
2014 Rose Parade float. The 2014 Rose Parade will feature two gay males Aubrey Loots and Danny Leclair getting married on one of the

progressive liberal indoctrination at a family event like the Rose Parade anymore.

Get a clue. It's not "a family event" any more.
Moral Intelligence and Public School
Bullying. On December 4, 2013 Randi Weingarten, president of the 1.5-million member American Federation of Teachers (AFT), spoke
on C-Span about bullying, particularly of gay students. Ms. Weingarten said, with surprise in her voice, that she doesn't understand why gay
students are still bullied in public schools, because in 2013, "It's cool to be gay." She also said she is gay, and now speaks about it
openly. [...] As Ms. Weingarten talked about the love that not only dares speak its name but never shuts its yap, I imagined how it would sound if a
heterosexual male schoolteacher said, "The way I do sex is cool."
Compare and Contrast. What this comes down to is that there is a group who mocks God,
Jesus and the Bible. They say it's fiction. They say they couldn't care less about what Christians say about sin. Sin is an arbitrary
construct decided upon by a certain group of men. The gays are lying. They care very much what Christians think and say. They are not
fighting for civil rights. They are fighting to control thought. They have a need to legislate how you feel. They need to eradicate
any whisper that what they do is unnatural and a sin, while claiming they don't believe in such things.
Messiah
Obama Turns 2014 Winter Olympics into Sexuality Games. Anyone who thought the Olympics was about sports competition among nations apparently
was wrong, at least according to President Barack Obama. Just like he has tried to reinvent America off her throne of greatness, Obama uses the 2014
Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia to remake the games into a forum on gay rights.
Out2Enroll

according to their website.
The Age of Intolerance. [Scroll down] First, Bob
Hope, touring the world in the year or so after the passage of the 1975 Consenting Adult Sex Bill: "I've just flown in from California, where
they've made homosexuality legal. I thought I'd get out before they make it compulsory." For Hope, this was an oddly profound gag,
discerning even at the dawn of the Age of Tolerance that there was something inherently coercive about the enterprise. Soon it would be
insufficient merely to be "tolerant" — warily accepting, blithely indifferent, mildly amused, tepidly supportive, according to taste.
The forces of "tolerance" would become intolerant of anything less than full-blown celebratory approval.
The Left's militant, proactive intolerance.
I must admit I've never watched "Duck Dynasty," but this brouhaha over A&E's suspension of the show's star, Phil Robertson, for his remarks on homosexual
behavior in an interview with GQ has little to do with "gay" issues and everything to do with thought and speech control — and the left's intolerance.
GLAAD: Lethal Enforcers of the Left's Tolerance
Mob. "Duck Dynasty's" Phil Robertson is not alone. He's the latest in a long, long lineup of politically incorrect targets of the
left's sensitivity mob. Founded in 1985, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) gangstas won't stop until both the cultural and
legal enforcement of their agenda are the norm.
Polygamy: It's Coming. In Lawrence v. Texas, the
U.S. Supreme Court, reversing its own then-recent holding in Bowers v. Hardwick, ruled that laws against homosexual sodomy are unconstitutional —
even though the Constitution says nothing about sex, let alone sodomy — on the ground that the right of privacy (also never mentioned in the
Constitution) protects all consensual, private sexual contact between adults. Lawrence immediately was seen as a milestone in the campaign for
gay marriage. Some conservatives noted that the Court's rationale would protect polygamy, too, but they were denounced as killjoys. Lawyers
noticed, however. Soon after Lawrence, several lawsuits were commenced in federal courts asserting a constitutional right to polygamy.
Lesbian boss 'fired me for being straight'.
A married, heterosexual gym teacher at a tony Upper West Side private school was fired because his lesbian supervisor disapproved of his "traditional family
status," the canned teacher claims in a new Manhattan lawsuit. Gregory Kenney, 50, taught gym at the Trinity School on W. 91st St.
for 16 years before he was let go in June 2012.
Penalizing Those Who Hold Biblical
Views of Marriage. In a series of instances we have seen the gatekeepers of civil society attack those who hold Biblical views about marriage and
sexuality — Chick-fil-A, Barilla Pasta, Craig James who was fired from ESPN, and now Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty. It is even worse, of
course, when it is the government that penalizes those who hold Biblical views. That should be anathema in America. While A&E exercised its rights,
in a growing number of incidents, government has not respected the free-contract and free-speech rights of Americans.
A&E declares war on 'Duck Dynasty's' Christian
values. Duck Dynasty has been sacrificed on the altar of political correctness. By now you probably know that A&E indefinitely suspended
Phil Robertson, the patriarch of the Duck Dynasty family, for following the teachings of the Holy Bible.
Homosexuals Get Duck Dy-Nasty. "Tolerance," as it
has been marketed, was always a con. [...] For one thing, tolerance always implies a negative, real or perceived; you wouldn't have to tolerate a beautiful car
or a delectable meal — you relish those things. But you might have to tolerate a cold or bad weather. Thus, tolerance is only noble in two
situations: One is when dealing with something objectively negative that cannot be eliminated, such as irremediable pain. The other is when
confronted with something you don't happen to like and could avoid, but that is objectively good or neutral; an example would be tolerating a food you detest
in order to avoid offending your hosts.
Christianity on trial in Duck Dynasty
controversy. Will cooler heads prevail in the gay community, realizing that Christians ought to be allowed to have their two millennia-old
beliefs respected in the public square? That would be the optimal outcome, but I don't really predict it will happen, as things now stand.
The Editor says...
The abhorrence of homosexuality is much older than "two millennia." Homosexuality has been abnormal since the creation of the earth.
(Genesis 5:2)
What Christmas Means for Traditional Family
Advocates. The LGBT lobby has been ruthless about intruding into all our relationships both personal and professional to indoctrinate people in
its sexual ideology. It doesn't matter that this ideology of biological determinism and sexual abandon destroys gays themselves, as well as the people
around them who feel the fallout from their depression, sexually transmitted diseases, eating disorders, anxiety, exploitation, sexual assault, domestic
violence, and suicide — all the trademarks of a gay world that has been decaying from within while its self-appointed lobbyist overseers bicker
with the outside world about same-sex marriage. The more resources the LGBT lobby has shifted from reforming gay culture to erecting a façade of
suburban marital normalcy that precious few gays can ever really obtain, the gloomier and unhappier gay people have become as individuals. Yet to
bear witness on this topic is relentlessly painful.
Four Decades
Eroding the Foundation of Liberty. In 1986, in Bowers v. Hardwick, the Supreme Court turned back a challenge to the
Georgia law that prohibited same-sex sodomy. In a concurring opinion, Chief Justice Warren Burger made a telling point. "I join
the court's opinion, but I write separately to underscore my view that, in constitutional terms, there is no such thing as a fundamental
right to commit homosexual sodomy," said Burger. "As the court notes, the proscriptions against sodomy have very 'ancient roots,'"
he said. "Decisions of individuals relating to homosexual conduct have been subject to state intervention throughout the history of
Western civilization. Condemnation of those practices is firmly rooted in Judeo-Christian moral and ethical standards." "To
hold that the act of homosexual sodomy is somehow protected as a fundamental right would be to cast aside millennia of moral teaching,"
said Burger. Seventeen years later, in the case of Lawrence v. Texas, the Supreme Court did just that. It reversed
Bowers and declared that same-sex sodomy was indeed a right.
Hate Crime Tip-hoaxing. Two recent
incidents have caused many people, including blogger Elizabeth Scalia, to suggest that people stop tipping with cash, in order to prevent
being falsely accused of a hate crime. [...] So, if you want to avoid being falsely accused of stiffing on a tip and committing a hate crime,
always put the tip on your credit card. And save your receipts and credit card bills.
Senate
approves gay rights bill. The Senate passed a historic piece of gay rights legislation Thursday [11/7/2013] that would ban workplace
discrimination against gay and transgender employees, another milestone victory for a gay rights movement that has been gaining favor in the courts
and electoral politics. The 64 to 32 vote to approve the Employment Non-Discrimination Act marked the first time federal lawmakers
had approved legislation to advance gay rights since repealing the military's ban on gay men and lesbians in uniform in late 2010.
ENDA Uses
Gays To Saddle Business With New Layer of Bureaucracy. With everything from health care to immigration a non-starter in Washington, it's
no surprise that Democrats are now scraping bottom with a badly designed law intended to end supposed widespread job discrimination against gays,
lesbians, bisexuals, transgenders and others known as "questioning." [...] But ENDA isn't about changing attitudes, or ensuring flourishing businesses.
Everything about it is a chaos agent that's likely to trample first freedoms and trash business efficiency through new bureaucratic and tort nightmares.
For one, ENDA isn't focused on protecting the sexual identities of employees, as the Civil Rights Act is, but on extending to particular behaviors associated
with unconventional sexuality new protected privileges, notes the Heritage Foundation and other observers.
The Editor says...
We are watching the creation of another protected class of people who will make it even more difficult for small businesses to stay afloat.
The same was true with affirmative action and with the ADA. And now, every time a man in a dress applies for a job, the small business
owner will have to hire the guy, or face a discrimination lawsuit. New employees of this sort will then be immune from termination for
the same reason. Steadily, gradually and incrementally, the political left is making capitalism infeasible through the use of government
red tape.
Ban on Gay Bias Gains Ground
in Senate. Senator Joe Manchin III, Democrat of West Virginia, said Wednesday [10/30/2013] that he would vote for a nondiscrimination bill
that protects gay men, lesbians and transgender people, putting the measure within one vote of gaining the support it needs to overcome a filibuster.
Sexual Predator Honored With U.S. Postage Stamp.
Harvey Milk's only claim to fame is that he was the first openly homosexual candidate to be elected to public office (San Francisco city commissioner).
His chief cause was to do away with the Judeo-Christian sexual ethic. In 1978 Milk was murdered over a non-related political dispute by fellow Democrat
Dan White. And a "progressive" martyr was born. Merriam Webster defines "pederast" as "one who practices anal intercourse especially with a boy."
It defines "statutory rape" as "the crime of having sex with someone who is younger than an age that is specified by law." Harvey Milk was both a pederast

gay community to name Pelosi a 'Hometown Hero'. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, a Baltimore native, will next month receive a "lifetime
achievement award for her longtime dedication to LGBT rights and her work to fight HIV/AIDS in Congress," gay leaders in Baltimore said Friday [10/25/2013].
The Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Community Center of Baltimore is giving Pelosi the award at its inaugural "Hometown Hero Awards & Champagne Brunch" on
Nov. 17 in Baltimore, an event it expects some 500 people to attend.
Gay
rights supporters wage a quiet campaign to push Republicans to the middle. [A] powerful group of Republican donors, who see the GOP's staunch opposition to gay
rights as a major problem, is trying to push the party toward a more welcoming middle ground — where candidates who oppose marriage rights can do so without seeming
hateful.
Reuters asks
staff if they are 'intersex,' 'transsexual,' 'genderqueer,' male-to-female. The 60,000-strong Thomson Reuters media empire, in an effort to
determine its diversity success, is asking its staff of reporters, researchers, marketers and others to pick their sex from nine choices, including
"genderqueer," a category for identities other than man or woman. According to the company's annual employee survey, choosing a sexual identity
doesn't have to be based on a worker's actual sex, but instead "a person's innate, deeply felt psychological identification."
The International Gay War on Black People.
Crystal Dixon was an African-American administrator in Toledo who authored a rebuttal against someone who'd accused the University of Toledo of economic
discrimination against homosexual couples. Dixon said, "I take great umbrage at the notion that those choosing the homosexual lifestyle are 'civil
rights victims.' Here's why. I cannot wake up tomorrow and not be a Black woman." She went on to clarify the illegitimacy of the economic
comparison.
Christie to sign ban on gay conversion therapy.
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has signed a bill barring licensed therapists from trying to turn gay teenagers straight.
The Editor says...
If you're "born that way," how is it possible to convert from one "orientation" to another?
Why aren't we being warned? We've been
hearing about the dangers of tobacco for decades, while, during the same period, tobacco companies have been strictly limited in the
forms of marketing they may use to peddle their product. [...] What if I were to tell you about another activity which is also
exceptionally dangerous? This activity leads to:
• A twenty-five to thirty-year decrease in life expectancy.
• Chronic, potentially fatal, liver disease — infectious hepatitis, which increases the risk of liver cancer.
• Inevitably fatal immune disease including associated cancers.
• Frequently fatal rectal cancer.
• Multiple bowel and other infectious diseases.
• A much higher than usual incidence of suicide.
The AAP attempts to normalize perversion.
Pediatricians have a new
mission: Fight 'homophobia'. In its first sexual-orientation policy update in nearly a decade, the nation's largest pediatricians
group said its members should do more to fight "heterosexism" and "homophobia," as well as step up their care of teens with same-sex
attractions. "Sexual-minority youth should not be considered abnormal," the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) said in its new
materials on lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) youths, released Monday [6/24/2013].
Truth about Homosexuality. Gay marriage, high
school gay clubs, gays in the Boy Scouts, gays adopting — all of these issues have one simple aim in the end: to legitimize, in as
many people's eyes as possible, men having sex with men or women having sex with women. The Times, with Alma Bowen's
May 1 column, contributed to many of the myths about homosexuality. Mrs. Bowen's use of phrases like "instinctive desires"
and "gender identity" give the impression that homosexuality is an "in-born" trait. In other words, she is implying that there is
some "gay gene" that exists in homosexuals. There is no science which supports this belief.
Tolerance is not enough. Your approval is now required.
DOJ
on 'Gays': 'Silence Will be Interpreted as Disapproval'. [Scroll down] The document is chilling. It's riddled
with directives that grossly violate — prima facie — employees' First Amendment liberties. Following are
excerpts from the "DOJ Pride" decree. When it comes to "LGBT" employees, managers are instructed: "DON'T judge or remain
silent. Silence will be interpreted as disapproval."
'I Was Born This Way'. [Scroll down] What the
researchers found was that lesbians in their sample of women over 35 were more likely than the heterosexual women to have a "previous mental
health diagnosis" and to be well-educated, and significantly more likely to be obese (40.2% compared to 30.4%). Most importantly, lesbians
were almost twice as likely as matched heterosexual women to be have been victims of "intrafamilial" child sexual abuse (CSA), and more than twice as
likely to be victims of extrafamilial CSA.
25 Reasons To Dislike
Liberals. [#2] Because the closest thing to Sodom and Gomorrah in the modern world is San Francisco and Berkeley.
The Editor says...
Even Sodom and Gomorrah didn't have annual parades to flaunt their rampant homosexuality, therefore
San Francisco and Berkeley are even worse!
Movement to Normalize Pedophilia Finds Its Poster Girl. In January, Rush Limbaugh
warned that there was "an effort under way to normalize pedophilia," and was ridiculed by liberals (including CNN's Soledad O'Brien) for
saying so. But now liberals have joined a crusade that, if successful, would effectively legalize sex with 14-year-olds in Florida.
The case involves Kaitlyn Ashley Hunt, an 18-year-old in Sebastian, Florida, who was arrested in February after admitting that she had a
lesbian affair with a 14-year high-school freshman. It is a felony in Florida to have sex with 14-year-olds.
Is There Such a Thing
as a 'Gay Disease'? The slow-motion meningitis outbreak among gay men in New York City took a possibly frightening turn
this weekend when a rapidly fatal case of the disease was seen in a previously healthy young gay lawyer in Los Angeles.
The census does not enumerate homosexuals. Most assertions about
their numbers are speculative.
The Statistics of Gay Men.
[Scroll down] Two of the most recent such surveys were by Gary Gates of UCLA's Williams Institute, and Gallup. Gates
took several old phone surveys and did his mumbo-jumbo and came up with an astoundingly precise figure of 2,491,034 gay
men. I shall never forget it, for it's so absurd. There's no logical or mathematical way that phone surveys
over a decade can produce such a figure.
AG sues florist who refused
flowers to gay wedding. State Attorney General Bob Ferguson on Tuesday filed a consumer protection lawsuit against Arlene's Flowers &
Gifts, a Richland florist that refused to supply flowers to the same-sex marriage of a longtime customer. Ferguson said he sent a March 28
letter to owner Barronelle Stutzman asking her to reconsider and supply flowers to customer Robert Ingersoll. Through an attorney, Stutzman
declined to change her position.

In America, you have "freedom of association" — unless you own a business and choose not to cater to protected minorities.
Low Life Gay Radicals Send Profanity
Laced Screeds to Two Girls. William Bigelow of Breitbart.com is reporting that there have been two targeted attacks of young girls in
the past two months by homosexual activists who were upset by the girls' stance in favor of traditional marriage. The first victim,
11 year-old Grace Evans, received some "rather colorful comments" from activists upset with her bold testimony before the Minnesota
House Committee on Civil Law in February.
This isn't just equal opportunity, this is affirmative action for homosexuals.
California tax bill seeks to punish Scouts for gay ban. California lawmakers are considering
taking some tax exemptions away from youth groups that do not accept gay, transgender or atheist members — a move intended to pressure the
Boy Scouts of America to lift its ban on gay Scouts and troop leaders.
Thou Shalt Not be Catholic.
It was prescience, not paranoia, that prompted some social commentators to predict that gay activism would become the principle threat to religious
freedoms in America. A recent incident at George Washington University provides the latest confirmation. In 2010, the University of
Illinois fired a Catholic professor who taught courses on Catholicism in the school's religion department after a student accused him of hate speech
because the professor affirmed what the Catholic Church taught about homosexual practice.
Phoenix
mayor, council open the women's bathroom door for men. On Feb. 26, the Phoenix City Council passed the so-called "Bathroom
Bill," which will allow not only "transgendered" men, but also any man who thinks he is a woman to use many of the same public restrooms
that women and young girls use. The bill, which passed 5-3, is a sterling example of how a mayor and city council can quickly
forego their duty to protect women and children in order to win the praise and support of special-interest groups in the community.
How the LGBT Lobby
Dominates. I never knew the extent of a lobby's power until fate called me to speak on behalf of children's rights.
Now, six months after having come forward with a logical, secular argument against same-sex parenting based on experience, broad research,
and international law, I have been met with vicious attacks and something far worse than viciousness: a massive nationwide cold
shoulder. Both left and right are allied in a complete blackout of dissent from LGBT orthodoxy.
An Open Letter to "Gay" Teens.

LGBT
Rights Group Sues School for Banning Transgender 6-Year-Old Boy from Girls' Bathroom. A six-year-old boy who has been
told that he cannot use the girls' restroom at his elementary school is being discriminated against, because he is transgender, an
LGBT advocacy group claims in a civil rights complaint, according to a report in a Colorado Springs newspaper, The Gazette.
Coy Mathis' mother said her son has lived as a girl, including dressing in girls' clothing, using the girls' bathroom at school and
having teachers refer to her as a girl.
Warning: This article includes graphic
descriptions of what homosexuals do. Their behavior isn't funny, it isn't cute, and it isn't normal.
A
Record of Sexual Abuse of Boy Scouts by Homosexuals. For many years homosexualists (those who support the homosexual agenda)
have tried to get The Boy Scouts to allow homosexual boys and homosexual men leaders into the Scouts. Vicious pressure has been used.
They brought lawsuits against the Scouts, and took one to the United States Supreme Court, which, fortunately, they lost. They have
gotten cities, civic organizations, and even churches, to deny use of their property to the Scouts. They have been successful in getting
organizations and private corporations to deny contributions to the Scouts. They are indeed an evil powerful group.
CNN's Piers Morgan:
Amend the Bible to Embrace Homosexuality. CNN host Piers Morgan, who is already facing angry deportation calls from thousands
of Americans over his attacks on the Second Amendment, is calling for a gay marriage amendment to the Bible, Townhall.com reports.
During a discussion on CNN's "Piers Morgan Tonight" on Christmas Eve with megachurch pastor Rick Warren, Morgan argued that there needs
to be an "amendment to the Bible" for same-sex marriage.
The Editor says...
This sounds like an oblique admission that homosexuality is incompatible with Biblical teaching. But Mr. Morgan has chosen to
defend homosexuality and enter in to a quixotic contest with the Bible.
Piers Morgan: How About
We Amend the Bible. CNN host Piers Morgan, who is already facing angry deportation calls from 75,000 Americans over his attacks
on the Second Amendment (and no, England doesn't want him back), is calling for a gay marriage amendment to the Bible.

Court Blocks Calif. Ban On Gay Therapy.
A federal appeals court on Friday put the brakes on a first-of-its-kind California law that bans therapy aimed at turning gay minors straight.
Yes, homosexuality is a choice. According to
Peter Schmidt in the Chronicle of Higher Education, yet another individual working in higher education has been demolished for saying the wrong thing
about homosexuality. The basis on which to define people as "anti-gay" has, however, taken a turn to the absurd (and eerie).
Massive
study finds only 3.4% of American adults identify as LGBT. A massive new survey published this morning reveals that
only 3.4% of American adults publicly identify themselves as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender, with the highest percentage coming
among the younger, less-educated non-whites. The new Gallup Poll of more than 121,000 adults, the largest of its kind on
record, wass [sic] conducted during the past four months.
Proposed Ban on Public Nudity Offends Some in San
Francisco. A city supervisor here proposed a law Tuesday [10/2/2012] that would ban nudity in most public places across the city.
For years, the city has held an "equilibrium" with nudity at public events and occasionally in neighborhoods, said the supervisor, Scott Wiener, but
the nudity recently "has just gotten extreme." At issue is a public plaza that regularly attracts nudists in the historically gay Castro
neighborhood, prompting a debate about the limits of civil liberties in this famously tolerant city.
California
becomes first state in nation to ban 'gay cure' therapy for children. California has become the first state in the
nation to ban therapy that tries to turn gay teens straight. Gov. Jerry Brown announced Sunday [9/30/2012] that he has signed
Senate Bill 1172, which prohibits children under age 18 from undergoing "sexual orientation change efforts." The
law, which goes into effect Jan. 1, prohibits state-licensed therapists from engaging in these practices with minors.
The Editor says...
If there is such a therapy, and it works, that proves that homosexuality is a choice, not a genetic condition, as so many
homosexuals claim. If this therapy doesn't work, why is it so vigorously opposed?
Suppressing Reparative Therapy Is
Suppressing Freedom. Reparative therapy is not unjust, but California's law proscribing it is. It's oppressive, not progressive;
it's restrictive of freedom. It's censorship. In the government banning reparative therapy, basic freedom is at stake. In the name
of liberty, this oppressive and restrictive California law must be fought before it spreads.
Improper theft of a movement. Gay activists
have long sought to make Americans believe gays, lesbians, et al, have suffered the same myriad miseries throughout their lives as
blacks have since this land's colonization. It's true enough that homosexuals and lesbians have been abused and stigmatized; however,
the argument that they mirror the fight for equal rights blacks have experienced is weaker than water flowing down the Rio Grande.
The 'Gay'-Activist Science Deniers. Woe
to any scientist with an interest in objectively researching and reporting on "LGBT"-related issues. If your findings
fail the left's socio-political "butterflies-and-rainbows" litmus test, the "progressive" establishment will try to destroy
you — guaranteed.
California law barring
parents from 'curing' gay children moves through legislature. A first-of-its-kind state law that would restrict parents from trying to
"cure" their minor children's same-sex attractions seems headed to the governor's desk. If both state houses can agree on the final language,
the legislation, which would ban all sexual orientation change effort (SOCE) treatment for minors, will be sent to Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown for his
signature sometime in September. But, so far, there has been no indication from his office on whether he will sign the bill into law.
The Dumbest Word in the English Language.
I submit to you that there is no dumber word in the English language than "homophobe" (and its derivatives). The word was coined by
psychologist and gay activist George Weinberg in his 1972 book Society and the Healthy Homosexual. The book was published one
year prior to when the American Psychiatric Association, with a vote of 5,834 to 3,810, removed homosexuality from its list of mental
disorders in its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual. The word became an important tool for homosexual activists and their
allies. Weinberg gave them a "medical" phobia with which to attack their opponents.
School Wants to Oust Church Over
Anti-Gay Sermons. The head of Miami-Dade County Public Schools wants to evict a Southern Baptist church that rents space in one of their
buildings because of the congregation's opposition to homosexuality. Supt. Alberto Carvalho released a statement to a local television station
alleging that Impact Miami's opposition to homosexuality "appears to be contrary to school board policy as well as the basic principles of humanity."
AIDS risk higher for gay,
bisexual black men. Black men who are gay or bisexual are "at the center" of the U.S. HIV/AIDS epidemic and should be
a primary focus of testing, service and treatment efforts, a federal official and advocates said Wednesday [7/18/2012]. Black
men who have sex with men account for one in four new HIV infections, even though they represent only one in 500 Americans, the
Black AIDS Institute said in its new report, "Back of the Line: The State of AIDS Among Black Gay Men in America 2012."

Well, the Episcopalians
Did It Again. Episcopalian leaders continue to guide their denomination into the abyss — and no doubt,
the Presbyterians (PCUSA) will soon follow. As reported in the Huffington Post, the Episcopal denomination's General Convention
voted this week to make it illegal to "discriminate against anyone." Specifically, that means it is now illegal to "...bar from
the priesthood people who were born into one gender and live as another or who do not identify themselves as male or female."
Google
Launches Campaign to Force Global Tolerance of Homosexuality. One of the most powerful and ubiquitous online entities in the
world is using its influence to try to force tolerance of homosexuality on the entire world. Google, which in June banned guns and
ammunition from its online shopping site as unsafe for families, announced the launch of its "Legalize Love" campaign July 7 to
pressure countries that either do not recognize "gay rights" or outlaw homosexual behavior altogether to change their laws. In its
rollout of the project, the Fortune 500 company attempted to frame its crusade as an attempt to promote safer conditions for
homosexuals in countries where Google has offices.
New NBC Show Claims Gay Parents Are
'The New Normal'. From the twisted imagination that spawned the pro-gay high school show "Glee" comes another new sitcom that is poised
to take the gay agenda even further. Aptly-named "The New Normal," the show depicts a gay couple's quest to have a child via a surrogate mother
and the awful conservative grandmother who dares oppose them.
Pathetic Dan Savage. June is Gay Pride Month,
which immediately begs two questions: 1. Says who? 2. How is it that we have become a nation of such compliant sheep
that we accept this rubbish? The Viacom corporation, on the other hand, thinks it's the perfect opportunity for its MTV and gay Logo
channels to announce they're creating a second "It Gets Better," anti-bullying special starring their favorite gay bully, Dan Savage.
S.F. gay rights advocate arrested over
child porn. San Francisco police have arrested veteran gay rights advocate Larry Brinkin in connection with felony possession of child
pornography. Brinkin, 66, who worked for the San Francisco Human Rights Commission before his retirement in 2010, was taken into custody Friday
night [6/22/2012].
Gay Rights Icon Arrested on Child Porn Charges.
Larry Brinkin, the gay activist who led the fight to get San Francisco to recognize domestic partnerships, was arrested for child pornography
today [6/26/2012]. Items seized from his home included computers, videos, tapes, and discs. He had been a long-time employee of the
Human Rights Commission, and a central figure in the gay rights movement.
Rethinking Gay Marriage. Anyone
who is active in the political world knows that the most obnoxious, profane, hateful partisans, the ones most likely to engage in
harassment, are the left-wing gay activists. So I was not at all surprised to see the latest misbehavior from that source:
gay activists invited to the White House for a "gay pride" event by President Obama photographed each other making obscene gestures
toward Ronald Reagan's portrait.
Americans
Have No Idea How Few Gay People There Are. In recent years, as homosexuality has become less stigmatized, pro-gay
rights groups have come around to acknowledging that a smaller percent of people identify themselves as gay than some of the
early gay rights rhetoric claimed, based on Alfred Kinsey's 1948 report, "Sexuality in the Human Male."
Homosexuality is Not Normal.
Gay marriage is an oxymoron. Nothing about it fits or works or makes sense in any way. When we stop defining issues
Biblically and through common sense and began interpreting everything emotionally, the truth becomes irrelevant and insanity
reigns. However, rather than focusing on gay marriage specifically, consider the irrationality of homosexuality.
Homosexuals do not match physically. There is no point in elaborating with a description of male and female anatomy.
Besides, my writings are always G rated. Homosexuals, and especially men, are more susceptible to health problems,
infections and a shorter life span than heterosexuals. There is conclusive proof available in studies for those who will
search the internet and in libraries. People of the same sex do not fit one another physically. Have you ever noticed
among homosexual men, one tends to be more masculine and the other feminine and among lesbian couples, one tends toward masculinity
and the other is more feminine? This unintentional tendency to define two genders validates heterosexuality.
California
Senate Approves Bill Banning Therapy Aimed at Stopping Minors from Becoming Homosexual. The California state Senate
voted Wednesday [5/30/2012] to prohibit parents from seeking professional counseling for their children with the goal of preventing
them from becoming homosexuals. SB 1172 would prohibit psychotherapists from performing sexual orientation change
efforts "in the absence of informed consent of the patient."
The Editor says...
Homosexuals often claim that they were "born that way", so why would they even acknowledge that there are those who are contemplating
becoming homosexuals? Apparently the cocern here is that if a person can decide to become a homosexual, then obviously one
can decide not to be a homosexual. Just as in the Biblical story of Sodom and Gomorrah, you have to wonder: Why is
homosexuality so important to these people (the politicians and the activists), as if it is some sacred tradition or God-given right
that must be preserved? Exactly the opposite is true.
Sebelius
touts health law's work for LGBT community. Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius touted
the impact of the 2010 healthcare law on lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans in a statement celebrating LGBT
Pride Month. "All Americans, no less LGBT individuals, deserve the right to accessible, affordable, quality healthcare,"
Sebelius said Friday.
The Editor says...
Health care is not a right, and the people who engage in perverse, disease-spreading behavior deserve
medical care less than anyone because they bring their health problems upon themselves.
On Love, Homosexuality, and Sin. Biblical teaching on human
sexuality is clear: As a group of orthodox Anglican pastors put it some years ago, Heterosexual marriage is upheld in Scripture and Christian tradition to be the
only appropriate context for acts of physical sexual intimacy." This is the instruction of the Bible from its opening through its closing pages. Scripture
offers us no latitude on this subject. Its teaching is clear and definitive. [...] Informing much of this discussion is the insistence of activists that homosexual
conduct be recognized as normal and moral. Not just by society, but by the believing church.
UMC
Affirms That Homosexuality Is "Incompatible With Christian Teaching". Following some some intense debate and
emotional appeals from homosexual factions within its numbers, the United Methodist Church (UMC) affirmed May 2 that
homosexual activity is "incompatible with Christian teaching." The decision, which came at the UMC's General Conference
in Tampa, Florida, is certain to prompt backlash from the homosexual activist community, which for years has been pushing the
denomination to abamdon its scriptural position on sexuality and officially allow the oridnation of "gay" clergy and the
"marriages" of same-sex partners.
The Truth About Homosexuality:
When discussing same-sex attraction's cause, the first thing usually mentioned is the much touted "homosexual gene" theory. In fact, the
idea has been repeated so often that many today accept it as fact. But the reality is this: Neither the groundbreaking Genome Project
nor any other research endeavor has found any such gene. Moreover, it makes no sense from an evolutionary (or selective breeding, if you
prefer) standpoint. After all, such a gene would greatly reduce the chances of its bearer procreating, would be unlikely to be passed on,
and thus would be a dead-end mutation unable to survive many generations. And, I must say, it's a testimonial to the emotion-oriented
decision-making of secular modernists — who are generally staunch evolutionists — that they would glom on to a theory
so contrary to Evolution 101.
For Obama, Gay Is Green. Mr. Obama is pandering to gays with
his marriage switcheroo for two reasons: 1) money; 2) onground support. Gays aren't a large cohort in the U.S., despite
misconceptions and propaganda. For years, it was in wide circulation that gays constituted 10% of the U.S. population. A May 2011
Gallup poll claims that Americans, on the whole, perceive that gays are about 1 in 4 Americans. Not so. Gays are
more like 3.5% of the nation's citizenry. Yet gays have a disproportionate influence in politics.
Hollywood: Driving the Homosexual Agenda for 40 Years.
Hollywood celebrities exuberantly celebrated President Obama's recent declaration of support for gay marriage. But
Hollywood did not have to come out of the closet and support homosexuality — it has long used its influence to purposely
swing public opinion in favor of homosexuality. For several decades, Hollywood has shown its overt support for
homosexuality. Brokeback Mountain was nominated for Best Picture for its unabashedly sympathetic portrayal of a doomed
gay relationship. Newt Gingrich's half-sister officiated at a gay wedding on "Friends" in the 1990s. More
recently, late night talk show host Conan O'Brian officiated at an actual gay wedding.
Creepy-crawlies for the evolved Obama. The moral imprimatur
that homosexuals seek is the endorsement from the larger culture, of the straight, sober society that lives beyond gay-pride parades with their
outlandish prancing and eight-foot papier-mache penises meant to taunt those whose approval they secretly want most. Such approval is
beyond the power of presidents, whether Barack Obama or Bill Clinton, to confer. The landslide of disdain for same-sex marriage in North
Carolina, the 30th state in a row to give such rebuke, demonstrates just how far the gays still have to go to overturn centuries of rejection
and scorn of homosexual behavior.
Democrats Run Fundraiser Celebrating
Barney Frank's Coming Out Anniversary. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is holding a very special campaign
event for Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) on May 30. It's an important 25th anniversary that deserves celebration, according to the
DCCC. What happened 25 years ago? He came out of the closet as gay. "Barney is an inspiration to all of us as
one of the first openly gay Congressmen to serve in the House," writes Rep. Jared Polis (D-CO), another openly gay Congressman.
"This event will be particularly moving for me as it will be one of our last events with him before he retires this year."
Did anyone ask Sonia Sotomayor or Elena Kagan?
California judges asked
to say if they are gay. It used to be considered bad form to out gay public figures — but now California
judges are being asked to reveal their sexual identities in the name of diversity. The Judicial Applicant and Appointment
Demographics Inclusion Act, which took effect Jan. 1, requires the state to ask its 1,600 judges whether they are homosexual.
The goal is to "promote and increase the representation of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in the state's judicial
branch," according to Equality California, which pushed for the bill.
UN
Calls for 'Gay Spring' in Africa. The United Nations may soon impose economic sanctions and halt
aid to Africa if countries on the continent continue to oppose the legalization of gay marriage.
Hillary
Clinton: 'Religious Beliefs' Are 'Standing in the Way of Protecting Human Rights of LGBT People'.
Religious beliefs and cultural values do not justify the failure to uphold the human rights of homosexuals,
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told the United Nations in Geneva on Tuesday [12/6/2011]. "Now, raising
this issue, I know, is sensitive for many people and that the obstacles standing in the way of protecting the
human rights of LGBT people rest on deeply held personal, political, cultural, and religious beliefs," Clinton said.
A Global Gay-Rights
Crusade. There is some that is commendable and much that is pernicious in Secretary Clinton's speech
Tuesday [12/6/2011] announcing that the United States will be making "LGBT rights" — that is, the rights
of lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgendered persons — "a priority of our foreign policy" and a factor
in determining the uses of "foreign assistance."
New
Bill Would Extend Federal Employment Benefits to Homosexual Partners. In a deep bow to the homosexual
lobby, a small army of Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives has introduced legislation that would extend
employee benefits to the same-sex partners of federal workers. Under H.R. 3485, homosexual partners of
federal employees would be eligible for such benefits as retirement, life insurance, health insurance, workers
compensation, and death benefits. "The federal government must set an example as an equal opportunity employer,"
the bill's sponsor, lesbian Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) was quoted by The Hill as saying.
Homosexuals
Aggressively Push Agenda in Federal Government. While [John] Berry may be one of the most high-profile
homosexuals serving in the Obama administration, he is by no means the only one. According to the Washington
Post, no less than 200 "LGBT presidential appointees serve under President Obama, among them the first two who are
openly transgender." Additionally, thanks to Obama's aggressive efforts on their behalf, "gay men and lesbians
can serve openly in the armed forces. Intrusive questions about sex lives have been purged from security-clearance
vettings."
The Homosexual Movement
and the Decline of Morality in America. [Scroll down to page 437] The term "homosexual agenda"
is used to describe the goals and purposes of the activist homosexual movement. ... The primary goal is the complete
acceptance by society of sodomy as a wholesome exemplary way of life. A further purpose is to recruit others into
participating in their destructive lifestyle. Since their sexual acts are not designed for reproduction of the
species, as is normal sexual behavior of people and animals, this is the only way that they can get new bodies into
their group for participation in their perversions. Their attack has been well planned and well executed.
In the 1970s they began having amazing success in their lobbying efforts to get state sodomy laws repealed.
Where they could not get them repealed they attacked them in court. But they did not have much success in
their court attacks, at least until recent years.

[Scroll down] Indeed, the "gay pride" parade, perhaps more than any other, best encapsulates the values
embraced by today's secular-progressive left. Think about it. It's got it all:
• Obscenely expensive, taxpayer-funded actions-without-consequences gaiety.
• Celebration of a caution-to-the-wind, enjoy-now-pay-later lifestyle.
• Men who act like women and women who look like men.
• Flamboyant narcissism, moral relativism and plenty of gyrating nude bodies.
• Colorful public sex displays to forever confuse, desensitize and sexualize the kiddos.
• Lots of anti-Americanism.
• And a total absence of God.
CDC:
Homosexual men account for 61% of new HIV infections but only 2% of population. The U.S. Centers
for Disease Control has estimated that homosexual men account for 61% of the new HIV infections in the United
States while they only amount to about 2% of the country's population. Earlier this month, the CDC
released estimates for HIV infections from 2006-2009 showing that new infections remained stable at around
50,000 for each of the four years.
Senate
confirms first openly gay man to federal bench. J. Paul Oetken on Monday [7/18/2011] became
the first openly gay man confirmed to the federal bench. The Senate approved his nomination
80 to 13. Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), who recommended Oetken to President Obama for the
nomination to the District Court for the Southern District of New York, offered a ringing endorsement from
the Senate floor prior to the roll-call vote.
California's Book Ban. The
California state legislature has passed a book-banning law. Nobody is calling the book ban a book ban
because the books the book ban bans offend homosexuals. If the legislature had extended legislative
protection to the hurt feelings of, say, Mormons or evangelical Christians, then everyone would have agreed
that it's a book ban. But it doesn't, so don't call the book ban a book ban. You just might get
banned, too.
Gay
Men: The Democrats' Reserve Army of Histrionics. Gay leaders don't care about people whose
stories don't match their talking points. If you're good-looking, registered to vote, and willing to
campaign for Barack Obama, you matter! But if you just got beat up down range and decide the Army
isn't for you, don't ask gay liberals for help. If you're thirty and coming to grips with your
religion and decide you do not want to remain in the gay lifestyle, be damned. If you got AIDS in a
bathhouse in a moment of desperation, get lost — your story makes for bad ratings.
Is
Obama Stacking The West Point Board With Activists? President Obama on Tuesday [7/5/2011]
appointed an openly gay former Army officer to the U.S. Military Academy's Board of Visitors. Former
Capt. Brenda S. "Sue" Fulton, a founding board member of OutServe, an association of actively serving gay
military personnel, is also co-founder and executive director of Knights Out, an organization of gay West Point
graduates. She graduated in 1980 with the first West Point class to include women.
Education Secretary
Advises School Districts on Homosexual Clubs for Students. Education Secretary Arne Duncan issued
a "Dear Colleagues" letter on June 14 advising federally funded schools about establishing clubs on
campuses, specifically Gay-Straight Alliance clubs for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students.
The letter was issued from the department's Office of Civil Rights for elementary and secondary schools and was
sent to all school districts in the United States, according to Jo Ann Webb, spokesperson for the Department
of Education (DOE).
Obama Praises Homosexual
'Spouses' in Gay Gathering at White House. At the urging of homosexuals gathered at the White
House on Wednesday [6/29/2011], President Barack Obama praised gay "spouses" in his speech marking lesbian,
gay, bisexual and transgender "Pride Month."
ATF Hosts Its First
Gay Pride' Observance. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), under
fire for allowing U.S.-purchased guns to flow to Mexican criminals, celebrated its first gay pride event
on Wednesday [6/22/2011]. The celebration at ATF's Washington headquarters was intended to recognize
the "accomplishments and contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans to ATF and the
nation, and to promote awareness of the LGBT culture," ATF said in a news release. "ATF works to
ensure sexual orientation discrimination and prejudice are not tolerated in our workplace," said Acting
Director Kenneth Melson.
Gay donors fuel President Obama's 2012 campaign.
President Barack Obama's reelection campaign is banking on gay donors to make up the cash it's losing from other
groups of wealthy supporters who have been alienated and disappointed by elements of Obama's first term.
Pleased by an all-out White House push to repeal "don't ask, don't tell," gay donors have surprised campaign
officials with the extent of their support.
HHS Official Tells
Youth Summit: We're Recruiting LGBTs to Adopt Kids. David Hansell, who runs the federal
government's Administration for Children and Families, told a group of high school students at the U.S.
Department of Education's "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT)" youth summit on Tuesday [6/7/2011]
that the Obama administration is recruiting "LGBT parents" to adopt children.
Gov't 'Has Finally
Come Out of the Closet'. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius spoke at the
first "Federal LGBT Youth Summit" on Monday [6/6/2011] after being introduced by a homosexual on her staff,
who said the secretary "gets us" and is "tireless" in her support of lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender
youth. "Your federal government has finally come out of the closet in support of LGBT youth," said Pam
Hyde, HHS administrator for Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services.
California
Bill Could Protect Cross-Dressing in the Work Force. A California bill working its way through
the state legislature providing more protection for transgender individuals in the workplace could allow for
cross-dressing employees to wear whatever they want to work, despite workplace dress codes.
The Editor says...
Apparently the government's position is that employers do not have the freedom to associate — or
refrain from associating — with whomever they choose.
Presbyterians
set to drop celibacy rule for gay clergy. The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) is poised to
abolish a celibacy requirement for its gay and lesbian clergy, after decades of debate that have divided
the denomination and split Protestants worldwide.
The
Make-Believe World of Homosexualists. In the current make-believe world of the activist homosexuals,
and homosexualists such as Apple, the fact that sexual orientation can be changed must be kept hidden to the
extent possible. The truth is contrary to their current false propaganda that homosexuality is an
inherited condition that cannot be changed.
NBA's gay gag order:
Basketball superstar Kobe Bryant was socked with a $100,000 fine by the NBA last week for calling a referee
what the NBA thinks is a derogatory, ugly and vile name. To be exact, Mr. Bryant committed this
egregious verbal foul because he used a word demeaning to homosexuals, the most protected class of people in
America.
Comedian,
Vancouver restaurant ordered to pay for insults against lesbian. A Toronto comedian and Vancouver
restaurant owner were ordered to pay $22,500 by a B.C. Human Rights Tribunal on Thursday [4/21/2011] after the
standup comic hurled a torrent of sexual insults at a woman and her same-sex partner during a comedy show
three years ago.
Modern Use of the Term,
"Latent Homosexuality". A part of the propaganda of the homosexualists was trying to make the
public believe that homosexuality was widespread, using the often repeated, but false statement that 10% of the
people were homosexual; when many valid studies indicated less that 2%. They tried to make the public
falsely believe that many famous and well respected people were homosexual. Specific examples, are
Jesus Christ, his Apostles, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and innumerable others. They have also
used the term, "latent homosexuality," to try to increase the number further.
A Branded Man.
In recent years, there has been an effort to equate the current homosexual rights movement with the black
civil rights movement of the 50s and 60s. But the analogy fails for two principal reasons: 1) The
homosexual movement can't find a reverend named Martin Luther Queen, and 2) unlike blacks, homosexuals
generally have to invent their own victimization stories so they will have some "social ill" to eradicate.
Of course, such stories are never a manifestation of the illnesses of "society." They are simply
evidence of widespread mental illness in the LGBT "civil rights" movement.
Another
Hoax College 'Hate Crime' Charge in North Carolina. Jumping at the chance to prove their
politically correct bona fides, Chapel Hill is up in arms over what is quite obviously a faked attack
on a gay student.
Marching
in lockstep with homosexual agenda. "We used to conform behavior to the military. Now
we're conforming the military to behavior." Rep. Allen B. West, Florida Republican, belled the
cat neatly during a hearing last Friday on the military's breakneck pace in implementing the new lesbian,
gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) law. Mr. West, whose 20-plus years in the U.S. Army included
combat commands, noted that he and others at Fort Bragg had to endure "sensitivity training" in the 1990s.
It didn't enhance the "warrior ethos," he recalled.
The Pentagon prepares to welcome recruits to the New Gay Army.
Obama's new
'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' policy: Soldiers offended by the sight of two male Marines kissing in
public better not mention that fact to their superiors. Under President Obama, the new "Don't Ask,
Don't Tell" rules turn the Clinton-era policy on its head. Now those who embrace traditional moral
values are the ones being told to stay in the closet.
Apple's
censorship: Rotten to the core. There was a time in the history of the homosexual movement
when their demand was for "tolerance." That time has passed. Now, homosexual activists have
completely reversed themselves, and routinely demand an aggressive intolerance — for any
viewpoints that disagree with theirs, that is. And what's shocking is that in many cases, large
organizations are bowing to such demands.
Judge
who struck down Prop 8 confirms he's gay. The federal judge who struck down California's gay
marriage ban has confirmed longtime rumors that he's gay, but said his sexuality was irrelevant in deciding
the landmark case.
Military
indoctrinated on gays kissing, behavior. Four branches of the military have begun sending
training material to 2.2 million active and reserve troops as a prelude to opening the ranks to gays,
with instructions on, for example, what to do if an officer sees two male Marines kissing in a shopping
mall. Key themes are that sexual orientation will no longer be a bar to service, that all service
members must respect each other, and that the partners of gay troops will not receive the benefits of
heterosexual spouses.
Clash
for America's soul. Despite no promised certification that lifting the military's ban on
homosexuality will harm readiness, recruiting or retention, President Obama's Pentagon already has produced
materials hatched in a theater of the absurd. As Washington Times correspondent Rowan Scarborough reports,
Marine commanders will have to ponder, for example, what to do if two male Marines are seen kissing in a shopping
mall. Now there's a scenario for building respect for the military among the nation's youngsters.
US demanding gay rights support at UN body.
The Obama administration will introduce its first statement calling for the United Nations' top human rights
body to combat discrimination against gays and lesbians around the world, completing a U.S. reversal from
years of ambiguity on the subject during the presidency of George W. Bush.
There's No Such Thing as a Pro-Gay-Agenda Conservative.
By definition, conservatives are against the gay agenda because the gay agenda ultimately seeks to overturn
the moral order that makes freedom possible. Fidelity to the natural law — including in the
laws of our land — is at the very core of what conservatives seek to conserve.
Can Christianity and the Homosexual AGENDA Co-exist?
For those who subscribe to the Bible's infallible nature — meaning, it is flawless, contains no errors, and have no
need of revisions — cannot co-sign those things that are called according to the Bible "indecent acts", "shameful lusts",
"unnatural and abnormal relations", "an abomination", and a "wicked thing". Allow me to ask you to decide, if such a
targeted group can peacefully co-exist with an ideology that calls them all of the above? Can they? The
answer: no, they cannot.
The Art of War and DADT.
Hollywood is allowed to discriminate based on anything. "Sorry, but you're too black." "You're good, but
you're too fat." "I like you, but you aren't pretty enough." Hollywood can pick whomever they want, for
whatever reason and with no repercussions. Discrimination for the sake of art. But the military, the people
who protect the nation, can't choose whom they want now that gays got their win with the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
Court: San Diego wronged firefighters.
A court says San Diego firefighters cannot be forced to participate in homosexual "pride" parades — and
that the city's forcing four of them to do so three years ago subjected them to "sexual harassment." Four
San Diego firefighters filed suit against the city in 2009 and won in the case surrounding their forced participation
in a 2007 "gay pride" parade.
Paladino
says kids shouldn't be 'brainwashed' into thinking homosexuality is OK. GOP gubernatorial
candidate Carl Paladino yesterday went well beyond his opposition to same-sex marriage, telling a Brooklyn
Hasidic congregation that children should not be "brainwashed into thinking that homosexuality is an equally
valid and successful option. It isn't." He told about 50 worshippers at the K'hal Adas
Kashau synagogue in Williamsburg that kids "would be much better off and much more successful getting
married and raising a family."
Carl Paladino Spoke the Truth.
For modern American liberals, there is no greater sin than to publicly express the view that there may be something
wrong with homosexual activity and that children should not be taught to consider homosexual behavior morally
equal to chastity and marriage. No prominent politician who questions the wholesomeness of same-sex sex
can escape a vicious beating by the liberal elite — because these beatings serve a strategic purpose.
They are designed to intimidate good people out of seeking political office and sticking up for the truth.
They are designed to uproot the laws and norms of our society from the immutable natural law that is the true
foundation of our freedom. They are designed to destroy truth and promote a lie.
The 'Gay' Deathstyle. Millions of
self-styled "gay" men have — as a direct result of homosexual conduct — died from AIDS,
syphilis, hepatitis and all other forms of homosexually transmitted disease. Romans 1:26-27, which Obama
once comically called an "obscure passage in Romans," addresses the homosexual deathstyle: "Because of
this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural
ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust
for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty
for their perversion."
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 "have chosen hope over fear [and] unity of purpose over conflict
and discord" 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
dressed up as women, complete with makeup, jewelry, and high heels. Despite their
best efforts, it's not a pretty sight.
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
lobby has been working to discredit him.
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
"Queer". Kicking off the city's Gay Pride Week with a famous TV "Queer" tossing out the first ball
at "family-friendly" Fenway Park has some accusing the team of unfairly pushing a social agenda on children.
"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil;
that put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"

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 activists against the Salvation Army has been churning in the
Minneapolis-St. Paul area at the same time that Minneapolis-based Target
Corporation's decision to ban Salvation Army bell ringers is making headlines.
It's Not Gay Video
Attracting New Attention. Christians want to get the message out about the
destructive homosexual lifestyle.
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
for a constitutional marriage amendment has led to "anger" and "disappointment" among its members.
The Log Cabin Just Burned
Down. If there was any doubt about whether the Log Cabin Republicans belong in the GOP's "big
tent," it was resolved this week. They don't.
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.

Commentary: Born That Way? A woman who overcame homosexuality traces
the beginnings of the lie to sex researcher Alfred Kinsey.
I Do Exist! — New Video Focuses on
Ex-Homosexuals' Stories. While organizations like the American Psychological Association are
throwing their considerable weight behind the homosexual movement, a handful of notable members of the mental
health field are countering with the truth about sexual orientation.
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
Defends Public Sodomy in Virginia. The case involves a man who solicited sex in a
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
think marriage rights should be given to homosexuals.
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.

11 Ways
You Can Fight the Homosexual Agenda: Stay involved. Resist
the "gay" activist agenda and bring hope and

11th
Circuit Affirms Florida Law Forbidding Homosexual Adoptions: The
11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals says it "[does not] sit as a super legislature to
award by judicial decree what was not achievable by political consensus."
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
country has come.
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
from telecommunications giant AT&T will help pay the bills of students who identify themselves as
homosexuals. Grades and extra-curricular activities don't count as much as sexual orientation for this
type of financial help.
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 ̵ |
