Sen. Ted Cruz Headlining Hate Conference Hosted By Extremist Anti-Gay Group This Weekend: VIDEO
Towleroad ^ | November 15, 2014 | John Wright

Does Sen. Ted Cruz believe AIDS is God's punishment for being gay?

Does Cruz believe that government should regulate homosexuality and that public schools are using anti-bullying laws to indoctrinate children into homosexuality?

Does Cruz believe that we need more hate and less tolerance in the world?

If not, perhaps Cruz should explain why he's headlining a legislative conference in Dallas this weekend hosted by a group whose founder has said each and every one of those things.

Cruz, along with another potential 2016 GOP presidential candidate, Gov. Bobby Jindal, is scheduled to keynote the Wallbuilders ProFamily Legislators Conference, which "provides an opportunity for conservative pro-family State legislators from across the United States to come together for an insightful briefing session with leading experts in a variety of fields that touch many of the most crucial areas of public service."

Wallbuilders is led by founder David Barton, who in addition to anti-LGBT extremism is best known for a total lack for credibility. From the Southern Poverty Law Center:

David Barton’s ascendant star as a self-taught “historian” and influential leader of the evangelical far right crashed in a storm of ridicule when the world’s largest Christian publisher recalled Barton’s 2012 book, The Jefferson Lies, for too many serious whoppers — the kind of gross factual mistakes that are a death knell for any real historian. ...

Barton still retains some influence, but only in the most extreme and uneducated segments of the Christian Right. Virtually all serious conservatives have repudiated him, and his chances of making a comeback seem remote, to be kind, although he sounds just as glib and sure as himself as ever.

Apparently, "the most extreme and uneducated segments of the Christian Right" include two potential GOP presidential candidates.

Cruz made headlines this week when he called net neutrality "Obamacare for the Internet" and railed against government regulations to enforce it.

Maybe someone in the mainstream media should ask Cruz whether he believes, like Barton, that government should regulate homosexuality.

After all, Grindr is probably nothing but Obamacare for Cruz's iPhone.

They want to see society accept homosexuality as a norm and they have no tolerance for those who oppose that choice of lifestyle. Their quest will never happen, no matter how many nutball over reaching judges they do find to overturn the will of the people. Most people are not leaving God’s word for appeasement of an act they do not believe in. This will come back in several cases, the will of the people spoke. I don’t see this issue being over.

“What has happened to every society with widespread acceptance of homosexuality? It’s an end-stage symptom of decline and that society will soon be history. That’s what history itself shows us.”

It seems its quite accurate to describe this symptom as an end-stage. After all Society only accept this self-destructive behavior when family, and duty become less important to them than self-pleasure.

A fundamental shift in values that has clearly already taken place in our Couture over the last 50 years, leading already to a rather dramatic sub-replacement demographic decline in both quantity and quality of children.

To put it simply the same shift in values towards the primacy of individual self-pleasure over the duties of raising a family have resulted in smaller sub-replacement level families and naturally mass immigration of untranslatable foreign cultures to make up the difference.

I suppose given the fact that our own culture is now dying its hard to really blame the instincts of theses foreigners that resist assimilation into it. But it would do us good to highlight at least for them who still have a chance the reason why we are dying.

The western culture that created the western world has mutated in a critical way that will lead to its decline and eventual conquest. The fragments that survive will throw off this mutation and rebuild from there. The sooner and more effectively we inform our kin of this faital flaw in values the more of them we can save and the larger our fragment will be that survives and endures.

Correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t Oprah say that AIDS was a gift from God?

Some people are justified in their hate. Raped babies and children at the hands of mosly gay pedophiles sounds like a good enough reason to me without even taking all the other BS they’ve done the past several years into account.

They even have to ask but since they brought up faith, when you don’t believe in God, do what you want and you maybe surprised of something bad going wrong for your health. We have a kissing disease, for goodness sakes.

for one to believe they are homosexual, is to believe a lie from the pit of hell.

I could NOT say if any of the mentioned names believe that or not. If they did I would not state they are wrong.

I do not know that it is not God`s punishment< who is to say?

Let the character assassination of Cruz begin. He is just a messenger and they fear him more than the message. They know there is truth in his message. It is they who doubt and cannot defend their ungodly lifestyle and confused sexuality. They will try at all cost to stop the messenger from delivering the truth - but the truth will prevail.

I believe we should elect political leaders who know they are accountable to G_D and serve under his authority. A nation, like a man, cannot serve two masters. Let us choose wisely. Let us be one nation under G_D again. Let our sins be forgiven.

Cruz is the man.

My stepfather (deceased) went to med school in the 1940’s; his textbooks (he kept them) plainly stated that homosexuals have a shorter life span than heterosexuals.

It is never fair to hate an entire group for the crime of its members. being just requires that you hold individuals accountable only for their own actions and in the case of organizations that that which they advocate. NAMBL for example deserves condemnation for their policy of child abuse and rape.

Practicing Homosexuals deserve only sympathy for their diases and condemnation for their sin and unrepentant attitude.

A message he is in this regard and it is indeed true that the truth will prevail inevitability. You cannot build and sustain any civilization that defines its goals in terms of what is pleasurable rather than healthy and growing families.

The very premise of homosexuality and their efforts to redefine marriage is build upon a fundamentally flawed system of values rooted in self-pleasure rather than sustainable and growing families. For 50 years the western world has been dying from this cultural plague and it will continue to die until the plague has burn anyone foolish enough to follow out of existence. When that plague dies so too will the resulting culture that foolishly embraces the self-destructive life-style of homosexuals.
It is not a matter of if but simply when.

Regulator—you say it nicer than I would. I recall Romans 1:24-32 a lot of folks who call themselves Christian say the Apostle Paul was a lot like so many Americans say David Barton is I believe it is a consequence of behavior that seems right to a man the ends thereof is death. How many caught in that web of homosexual deceit have chosen to “chase the bug” and now have tested HIV positive? How many ere LIED to by their “lovers”? and now test positive for HIV/AIDS? How many in that lifestyle or in the related chosen lifestyle share needles and now test positive for HIV? and and how many of the rest of us are forced or beguiled into paying for the Medications they must now take as consequence for their choices?

“...Does Sen. Ted Cruz believe AIDS is God’s punishment for being gay?”

It doesn’t matter. AIDS is a bad thing to those that receive it and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.

G_D has told us homosexuality is an abomination (in HIS eyes) and homosexuals will not enter the kingdom of heaven (HIS punishment). HE did NOT say HE would give them AIDS. Of course there was the incident at Sodom and Gomorrah but HE didn’t inflict AIDS upon them.

I believe everyone is punished or rewarded based on their decisions and actions subject to the laws of G_D, mathematical probabilities, and unintended consequences in this world.

I believe G_D lets us fail when we disobey these laws. In other words, we bring punishment upon ourselves. Therefore, AIDS is a punishment we bring upon ourselves.

Can’t blame this one on Bush! They can try to blame G_D, but HE didn’t force anyone accept the gay lifestyle and certainly their biological parents weren’t gay so it is not hereditary. Guess the decision was theirs. Of course, maybe the devil made them do it. Yeh, that’s it...

I think I said it was nature’s punishment... And one could equate that with God.

Not to elaborate, but under the New Covenant Christ is the bridegroom and we, the Church, are his bride. He is coming for his bride. Maybe very soon.

Gay and lesbian lifestyles are an effort by the devil to discourage and destroy the traditional Christian family structure, its purpose, and and its values here on Earth.

Gay and lesbian lifestyles and same sex partners cannot biologically procreate which is the main purpose of the male and female role in a Christian family designed by G_D.

I do not believe G_D does condones sex or marriage between same sex partners.

The bible makes it rather clear in the story of Sodom and Gomorrah among others that God Condemns Sodomy. As for marriage God has but one definition and that is between a man and woman.

I’m not aware of anyone even conceiving of what the Federal injustice system is now proclaiming as it is so nonsensical and pointless.

Marriage is about securing legitimate families in procreation thou permanent bonds. Only sexually complementary unions are capable of doing that, and short of doing that there is no rational reason why the legal union would even be desirable.

This is why I am of course with you their only possible propose is to destroy what is left in the public imagination of the true institution of Marriage by fully redefining its propose as being about somehow expressing and expressing a ‘feeling’.

Unfortunately that union is no more stable than the feelings it is about, and thus entirely unsuitable for long term procreation’s stability desired by a Family, as was once provided by the historic institution of marriage.

Of course with the compete destruction of the State’s institution of Marriage we have left a void in the area of permanent family union in which to reintroduce true marriage. Obviously by means of some legally immued entity like the Church, and rigorously enforced by members of the same.

We could even use Contract law to force the state to help enforce this union as effectively permanent as a true marriage is. In short doing what the sodomite community rejected doing out of compete disinterest in the propose of the union itself.

We however could do this to reintroduce this institution among ourself and our families. Transferring to it all the familures insistence for the same proposes our ancestors did. This is the opportunity left by the compete destruction of State’s official institution of ‘Marrage’.
