A blog is a “regular website,” too. The question is, how does it qualify as a news source? It is an opinionated, agenda-driven site no different than DU or Rush Limbaugh.

Yeah, just like DU.

Hmm, is that where you usually hang out?

Never been there but it is frequently referenced on FR, so I get the gist of it.

My specific interest in this subject originates with taking a 500 level statistics course for my MBA at the University of Oregon during 1973 and 1974 after serving in the Navy. Because of that course, I could join in the lament over this woefully unsupported decision expressed by a Psychology professor, who published text books including the subject of homosexuality. I could also join his lament, because of training in the classic scientific method as part of my undergraduate Chemistry major. Therefore I can trust this link, because it confirms the information he shared with me.

If you think the bias at DU is equivalent to the POV of the Family Research Council, you have something really wrong with you.

I guess you don’t think there is such as thing as objective reality or truth. Or maybe you’re a libertarian.

The key to defeating the homosexual agenda is to have former homosexuals healed through finding religion speak out against their former lifestyles. Something they are usually happy to do.

Homosexual Agenda Ping

Freepmail wagglebee to subscribe or unsubscribe from the homosexual agenda ping list.

Be sure to click the FreeRepublic homosexual agenda keyword search link for a list of all related articles. We don't ping you to all related articles so be sure to click the previous link to see the latest articles.

Add keywords homosexual agenda to flag FR articles to this ping list.

This is an excellent compendium of reasons - covers the entire spectrum from disease, to violence proneness, to child molestation, to drug use, to mental illness, to the "born that way" lie, to the Constitution - why homosexuality is not a civil rights issues whatsoever.

Anyone who has little time to read all the pinged out articles, please read and save or bookmark this one. It has all the ammunition you need to discuss with others. Homosexuals in the military is a big issue right now since the Evil Dems are trying to shove it through quickly. Yesterday on a thread about homosexuals in the military (a faux survey claimed most mil members don't mind serving with homosexuals supposedly) really brought out the trolls and pro-homosexual so-called conservatives.

Homosexuals in the military serves two purposes for the left. One, advances immorality and destruction of the natural family, thus requiring bigger and bigger government. Second, causes great harm to the military, which they loathe.

Conservatives must fight the "gay" agenda, or they are not conservative. It does and will affect everyone. Very adversely. Anyone who says "I don't care, gays don't bother me" or "what gay agenda?" is lying and is a supporter of the nazi-esque homosexual agenda. Either that or a liberaltarian who smokes too much dope to think straight and lives in a fantasy world.

Of course the MSM refuses to ever touch the fact that there are any former homosexuals. Even ones who healed without religion need to be heard. They all need to be heard.

A few years ago a large number of former homosexuals - I think number one or two thousand at least (I wish I could remember) wanted to buy a full page ad in the NYT listing their names, and info on organizations that help homosexuals change. Of course the NYT refused their ad.

Could you get the mods to fix the typos in the author’s name? I’m sure his last name isn’t really Peter S3prigg!

My original post had to do with the forum it was posted to. Nothing else. Everybody relax.

These people are not bloggers. And it’s not a link to a blog that was posted. I’ll ask again, do you even know who they are?

What difference does it make? It is not a news source.

Should add pedophilia to the same list and out the rest of the homosexual agenda—seeking control of other peoples’ kids is a huge part and male homos seeking sex with boys is not one of their rights.

The question is, how does it qualify as a news source? It is an opinionated, agenda-driven site no different than DU or Rush Limbaugh.

It is actually a scholarly research organization, with greatly respected family scholars in residence, such as Peter Sprigg and Patrick Fagan. The results of FRC's studies are valid material on which to report, just as the MSM trumpets its usually flimsy, 100-person "studies" in support of their leftist agenda. The scientific method demands that other serious scholars who read about studies then not only examine the criteria for a study, but also seek to replicate the findings with double-blind experiments.

This particular essay is a digest of a large amount of material. Based on the findings of many other studies, the author has drawn relevant conclusions to further the discussion.

... who happen to be associated an organization that promotes a particular political and religious/moral point of view, and this report just happens to support that point of view.

Sorry, but that's just the truth. It's not enough simply to claim "scientific method" when an interest group conducts and releases a study that supports its agenda. The possibility of bias and misapplication of data (whether inadvertent or on purpose) cannot be assumed away, just because we like what the report has to say.
