The Christian organization Focus on the Family is releasing a movie in theaters May 6 called “Irreplaceable” about the value of traditional families, the importance of fathers being engaged in their children’s lives and the healing power of forgiveness.
But apparently to some advocates for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender, or LGBT, community, that’s a cardinal sin.
LGBT advocates have launched an effort to disparage the movie online, petition against it and work to make sure “Irreplaceable” isn’t seen in your local theater.
Focus President Jim Daly reports in a blog post that some of the more than 700 theaters nationwide scheduled to show the film in a one-night-only event are starting to back out, intimidated by homosexual activists.
“Some of those who disagree with us are calling ‘Irreplaceable’ ‘anti-gay propaganda,’” Daly writes, “and demanding that theaters refuse to show the film.”
Efforts to shut down the movie are being coordinated through Facebook, Twitter and a Change.org petition begun by Shalom Rosenberg, a homosexual middle school teacher from Belmont, Calif.
“Although Focus on the Family has caused so much harm to so many, this is America and they are allowed to be hateful bigots,” Rosenberg states on his petition. “What is not acceptable is the fact that they are trying to pass this film off as a fair-minded or even ‘feel good’ documentary about love, family and marriage. This is not a documentary. This is anti-gay propaganda. Furthermore, it is unacceptable for mainstream theatres to allow this to play at their cineplexes nationwide, as if this were a legitimate film. Fair-minded Americans should not tolerate this kind of deception.”

In the end, this will hurt the gay community. With each passing day, the gays will look more and more intolerant. As people examine these intolerant people, they will see that homosexuality involves a very unhealthy lifestyle at all levels. How can anyone promote sodomy?
In watching the trailer, I hear the narrator talk about marriage as a man and a woman. This statement causes homosexuals to meltdown into hissy fits, because it omits the possibility of homosexual marriage.
So based on that, homosexuals have decreed that this is a movie which should be banned.banned
Focus on the Family was brain child of Dr. Dobson, who was cashiered out after bringing Daly on board and hoping to step back a bit to enjoy the fruits of his (the Lord's) labors.
Now, Daly can figure how the founder and former leader handled political pressures to change his message to be "Inclusive."
Recruiting. Next question?
Sodomy does not require love, respect, nor responsibility.
The movie’s critics can go pound sand, or ass if they prefer.
