The 'gay agenda' doesn't mention you

Fact of life #27b: Old people occasionally know what they are talking about.

Old people often know what they're talking about. That wasn't my point. There's definitely something in the brain, however, particularly in old men, that snaps when they reach a certain age and makes them think that the whole world is going to hell in a handbasket.

Wow. I had never even heard of Mark Morford until today. Reading his column is a little like going to see the lobster boy at a county fair sideshow.

Not in their brains so much as the evidence in front of their faces which they can no longer ignore. Such as the article referenced in my last post.

From the Spanish Inquisition

I really wish people would quit maligning the Spanish Inquisition like this! : )

In agreement until here. Neglecting to offer lifesaving aid to someone suffering from a curable disease is just cruel. They may be trapped in the practice of perversion now but every 'gay' can live a normal mentally healthy life if they choose to. Tens of thousands have been healed already.

Well said. Affirming someone in a degenerate lifestyle is not compassionate in the least. It's like saying to an alcoholic, "you can't help it, so drink up!"

Actually, in the abstract, gay sex IS a lot "like sticking your finger up someone's nose," only MUCH much nastier. Actually it's more like rolling around in a pile of someones feces!

[little jeremiah]

Who's put this into kids' heads?

GLSEN, that's who.

That, and the entertainment "industry".

[little jeremiah]

Bump to your truthful observation.

[T. Buzzard Trueblood]

Sex is icky. In the abstract, sex is like sticking your finger up someone's nose. It's roughly equivalent to chewing up some Cheetos, spitting into a cup, swapping cups with someone and eating each other's chewed-up orange gunk. The only difference is, there's no biological imperative to stick your finger up someone's nose or eat someone else's chewed-up Cheetos.

There's no "biological imperative" for gay sex, either. And gay male sex is much grosser, and unsanitary, than sticking your finger up someone's nose.

[Skooz]

That list is full of blatant lies.

For example: There is NO evidence whatsoever that Peter the Great was homo. None. Zip. Nada.

That can also be said for the overwhelming majority of those on the list.

More BS from the moonbats.

If you think the world is worse now than it has been in previous ages, you need to read more history.

The Straw man sang "If I only had a brain."

Good reason not to give any credibility to straw men, which is all the author seems to come up with here.

As The Galileo Review Commission reported in 1992, "the geocentric (the sun goes round the earth) representation of the world was commonly admitted in the culture of the time as fully agreeing with the teaching of the Bible … certain expressions, taken literally, seemed to affirm geocentrism."

Be *that* as it may, nowhere in Scriptures is there any definitive declaration of geocentrism, which was Aristotlean in origin. Geocentrism may have been commonly accepted, but there is/was no basis in Scripture for it, it came from Aristotle, period...

I've read enough history. You should probably peruse Bill Bennett's Report on Leading Cultural Indicators. As for history, it's so amusing to hear people say that things are always the same (apparently regardless of the legalization of baby-slaughter, pornography and the increase in gambling institutions) history is chock full of examples of empires that rose and fell and nobody seemed to recognize when it was falling or why. Wake up.

You're preaching to the choir, man. Our civilization has been on the decline since the 1930s at least--concurrent with the rise of communism and the subsequent infiltration of that pernicious ideology into every single Western institution. However, history moves in cycles, not in a straight line. According to my view the pendulum toward decline started to lose momentum in the 1980s and continues to do so. We have many more battles to fight before it begins to swing the other way in earnest.

But it will happen. Catholics are people of hope, ultimately. Therefore, I refuse to be cast down and pessimistic because of various negative forces that seem to rule society at the present moment. As some of our evangelical friends have said, "I've read the book, I know how it turns out." All we can do is continue to fight the good fight until He returns.

While I agree with you, the heart will not change until the person gives up their sin. So even the act of teaching them that homosexual behavior is sinful is recruiting sodomites to a straight lifestyle

[NRA1995]

The only reason you could have to be afraid of a gay man kissing, touching, or talking to you is if you're afraid you might like it.

Read: the dreaded "H" word, "homophobia". Sorry, but that word wears a little thin due to overuse.
