Steve and Teri Augustine met, fell in love and got married in a conservative evangelical Christian community. They grew up believing homosexuality was a sin, and that the “gay agenda” was an attack on their values.
Then, six years ago, their son Peter — their youngest child who loved theater and his church youth group — returned home to Ellicott City, Md., from his freshman year of college and came out to his family as gay. Teri asked her son not to tell anyone else, and drove herself to a mall parking lot to cry. Steve questioned his son’s faith, reciting Bible passages from Corinthians. The Augustines decided to put their son through a year of conversion therapy, determined to “set him straight.”

Statistically, once support for an issue reaches a majority like this one [gay marriage], movement toward 100 percent becomes much more difficult, Flores said, meaning that until a major shift occurs there will continue to be a core group of conservatives who oppose same-sex marriage.
So the goal is now everyone must accept and celebrate gay marriage and think it is the same as a marriage between a man and a woman. If not well you will be treated as like a member of the KKK.
Is the writer gay?
Propaganda works
....more fake news from the WAPO..
I don’t believe acceptance of gay life style has increased as much as the fear of opposing it has.
Sexual contact between person’s of the same sex are by definition UN natural. Nothing can ever change that.
In the end, our idea of morality is as flawed as ourselves. Morality comes from God, not us. Confusing values with morality is what leads to false gods and our tendencies to believe in them instead.
People do what they are told.
That is why advertising and government schools are so effective.
Two minutes later she again mentions her fiancee....and a couple minutes later, she mentions her fiancee again.
Was she trying to get a charged response out of me....since I had been duly informed that she was a lesbian?? You bet.
She failed...I could give a damn.
bu...but...she was being so TRANSGRESSIVE!
“I don’t believe acceptance of gay life style has increased as much as the fear of opposing it has.”
Yep. People have been conditioned courtesy of the MSM who still yield significant power and influence.
One check of her work history shows she’s a full blown Communist.

You see what is going on in other countries and you realize the LGBTs have been empowered to ruin anyone who stands against them. Steven Crowder is the most recent. I am not sure the polls reflect reality or just how successful they have silenced opposition.
As for me, I believe in the holiness of Scripture and Scripture hasn’t changed on the subject. All will have to answer to God eventually. Mare Pete will be in for a big surprise.
So is the upshot of the story that the parents changed their mind and everyone is now happy? If your circumstances change your belief then how firm was your belief?
The gays all came out of the closet en masse and OVERWHELMED everyone.....Cloward/Piven type of thing, and now almost ALL families know a gay or have a gay in their family......and we wouldn’t want to be MEAN and not be PROUD of them, would we?
It’s pretty simple....people don’t want to lose their jobs over being and have gone silent. Free speech no longer exists.
Reminds me of Joe Biden and his flip flop on the Hyde amendment.
‘I don’t believe acceptance of gay life style has increased as much as the fear of opposing it has.’
quite so...
;Sexual contact between person’s of the same sex are by definition UN natural.’
as I tried to explain to a firebrand in a YouTube convo, it is disordered, since if practiced exclusively, it would result in self-extinction; self-extermination is by definition disordered behavior, I said...her response, ‘it doesn’t happen often enough to hurt anyone so go $%&# yourself...’
