Homosexuals Pursuing Stealth Agenda

U.S. and Canadian courts have created a surge of momentum for the homosexual agenda. But what's so startling is how far they've advanced their agenda in the past few years.

CBN.com – WASHINGTON -- Homosexuals have won so many battles in legislatures, courts and the media, they can almost taste total victory just ahead. Gay rights lobbyist Toni Broaddus said, "We stand at this turning point in history. It's truly a historical moment."

Ben Bull, legal counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund, a traditional values advocacy group, agrees.

Bull said, "The homosexual agenda is making major gains, just in the last 10 or 15 years."

Atlanta pastor D.L. Foster is an ex-homosexual. He said of homosexuals, "They have a plan. They are executing that plan with precision, and they are achieving astonishing results."

One of the places the homosexual agenda is making the most headway is right where you'd expect it. In the Golden State -- California.

From a popular gay beach in ritzy Laguna Beach to San Francisco's Castro Street, arguably the capital of Gay America, the gay banner -- the rainbow flag -- flies over city streets filled with same-sex couples holding hands. And even the billboards honor those who've come out of the closet.

Broaddus said if all the gay rights bills now before the California legislature pass, "...We will have the strongest set of civil rights protections in the country for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Californians."

In Sacramento, family rights advocate Randy Thomasson often fights these special rights for homosexuals because he believes they erode traditional family values. He cites the civil unions bill that just passed in California, giving gays marriage in everything but name.

"We're setting it up for children to become confused: should I marry a boy or a girl, a man or a woman?" Thomasson said.

CBN News asked Thomasson to reel off some of the latest advances for the homosexual agenda in California.

In adoption: "Gray Davis is allowing homosexual couples to jointly adopt children."

"Transsexual teachers (are allowed)...And kids have to be taught to appreciate sexual orientation before graduation."

If recent history is any guide, where California goes first, America usually follows within a few years.

--Some states have given domestic partners rights previously reserved for married couples.

--New York has just opened up the first high school exclusively for homosexual students.

--And, any day now, the Massachusetts Supreme Court may well declare gay marriage itself legal.

And if that happens, both sides say they're ramping up for the ultimate fight: arguing before the U.S. Supreme Court the issue of gay marriage.

The reason that's considered the climactic battle is because if the nation's highest court approves same sex marriage, it's basically blessing homosexuality as equal in every legal and moral way to heterosexuality.

"We know that there's going to be a backlash, we know that we're going to be under attack from the right, but we feel like full equality is within our grasp," Broaddus said.

How did this happen in a country where homosexuals were almost all in the closet as little as four decades ago?

In a book called "The Homosexual Agenda," two of Ben Bull's colleagues at the Alliance Defense Fund warn about a complex and well-thought-out strategy to make America "gay friendly" and hostile to those who resist.

These Christian authors quote extensively from "After the Ball," a 1989 gay manifesto that laid out this agenda.

But the authors of "After the Ball" discuss in the book a 1988 summit of gay leaders in Warrenton, Virginia, where the agenda was proposed.

These authors are a reportedly brilliant researcher into the brain, Marshall Kirk, and a Harvard-trained expert in public persuasion tactics, Hunter Madsen.

The two proposed using on straight America tactics remarkably similar to the brainwashing methods of Mao Tse-Tung's Communist Chinese, mixed with Madison Avenue's most persuasive selling techniques.

The books says: "...using the very processes that made America hate us to turn their hatred into warm regard -- whether they like it or not."

First, the authors proposed homosexuals and their liberal allies should desensitize heterosexuals by getting homosexuality talked about as much as possible in the straight world.

"The main thing is talk about gayness until the issue becomes thoroughly tiresome," they said. "You can forget about trying right up front to persuade folks that homosexuality is a good thing. But if you can get them to think it is just another thing -- meriting no more than a shrug of the shoulders -- then your battle for legal and social rights is virtually won."

"Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" is one of America's most popular new shows. The same cable network highlights a homosexual dating show -- "Boy Meets Boy" -- and even a reality show about homosexuals making their wedding plans.

The Oscar-winning "American Beauty" showed a homophobic, gun-toting Marine officer blowing away Kevin Spacey because he suspects his own son is being seduced by Spacey. All the film's lead characters were deeply dysfunctional, and the only well-adjusted couple was Spacey's gay neighbors Jim and Jim.

"In and Out" had wise and winning teacher Kevin Kline discover he's gay, and then mocked Middle Americans who have a problem with that.

And the good, kind, understanding homosexual next door has been seen in so many movies and TV series, he's become somewhat of a cliche.

But former liberal radio-talk show host Stephanie Miller disagrees there's a monolithic liberal media backing a gay agenda.

"What is this thing 'the liberal media'? Can you get on the Fox Network, can you get a radio show if you're liberal?...no," she said. "All Hollywood cares about is money, money, money...straight, gay, doesn't matter."

But these days some 30 regular homosexual characters are being beamed into your home by the major networks every week.

As Kirk and Madsen put it: "The average American watches over seven hours of TV daily. Those hours open up a gateway into the private world of straights, through which a Trojan Horse might be passed."

Hi folks,

Don't you just love this place? Are you becoming addicted to FR? I am a Freepaholic. I have to tune in every day. This is the best place on the planet to get unbiased news, and the best analysis, bar none. You know that. I know that.

Because of the free exchange of information, and high level analysis, this site is one of the top sites in the world. There are over 1 million threads here, for you to peruse. And your comments are seen by everyone, in every country.

Did you know this site was started by one determined, stubborn son-of-a-gun who is in a wheelchair? Do you know that to this day he is still in charge? Do you know that this place is funded entirely by donations? Nobody’s getting rich off this place. It’s 3 months at a time.

Some of the brightest people in the world come here daily, to learn, and read what YOU have written. People like Rush (bless him), Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, both Houses of Congress, their staffs, World leaders, and all freedom lovers come here.

In some countries, you could go to jail for posting here. For real. It's that powerful.

Communists in power HATE this site. They can't control the propaganda. Come to think of it, communists NOT in power hate it, too. So does the Democrat leadership.

Do you want this site to stay here? There is no membership fee. The fundraisers are to keep it going, 3 months at a time. Think about that. 3 months at a time.

China would love this place to fail. So would Chavez, Castro, the idiot running North Korea, Tom Daschle, and Hillary.

I know it sounds like such a little amount, but I am humbly asking you to consider donating just $3 a month. A dime a day. I know it sounds like nothing, but it is everything. It really is. Put it on a credit card, and that's that. The link is at the bottom of the main page, way, way down. You will join us freedom lovers who are committed to spreading the word, and letting people all over the world have a place they can get unbiased information. Your dime a day is 100 times more than the guy in China who is reading this can afford. And he will go to jail if he is caught reading this. Think about that.

I've been here since '97, and know how this site has changed the world. Become a permanent part of it. I am asking you, personally.

Please. Your pride will swell, and rightly so. It feels good.

That guy in China, wanting freedom, depends on YOU.

But what's so startling is how far they've advanced their agenda in the past few years.

The lives of homosexuals may be much shorter than heterosexuals, but they want to cram as much agenda in our faces as they can. They just don't have as much time to spend on earth and they can accellerate progress due to the partnerships they forge with satan which costs them something they consider valueless: their souls.

There's hell to pay in enternity, however that will make their AIDS epidemic seem like a grammar school picnic in the park.

However, it is our God-given duty to derail their sickening train bound for sodom in any way we can.

An examination of these contracts formed by some with satan, wherein they pledge their very souls for their unusual pleasures, we find homosexuals are not the only group that have a shocking agenda. Aided by the satanically inspired ACLU there are other groups of atheists (some who pretend to be Christian, thereby mocking God and Jesus)who are likewise evil. These groups include the pro-abortionists and a percentage of our political class who all, in concert, are doing the devil's business on earth.

For the sake of our children's, our grandchildren's and our own souls, we must be constantly vigilant, otherwise we become complicit.

Indeed, the homosexual community's well planned, well funded propaganda campaign has been going on for years, as documented in the following references:

The Overhauling of Straight America

The Homosexual Propaganda and Media Manipulation Game

An excerpt from Culture of Vice:

"The homosexual cause has moved naturally from a plea for tolerance to cultural conquest. As Robert Reilly notes a society can withstand any number of person who try to advance their own moral disorders as public policy. But it cannot survive once it adopts the justifications for whose moral disorders as its own. This is what is at stake in the culture war...
For any individual, moral failure is hard to live with because of the rebuke of conscience. Habitual moral failure, what used to be called vice, can be lived with only by obliterating conscience through rationalization. When we rationalize, we convince ourselves that heretofore forbidden desires are permissible. We advance the reality of the desires over the reality of the moral order to which the desires should be subordinated. In our minds we replace the reality of moral order with something more congenial to the activity we are excusing. In short, we assert that bad is good...
It is often difficult to detect rationalizations when one is living directly under their influence, and so historical examples are useful. One of the clearest was offered at the Nuremberg trials by Dr. Karl Brandt, who had been in charge of the Nazi regime's Aktion T-4 euthanasia program. He said in his defense: “...when I said `yes' to euthanasia I did so with the deepest conviction, just as it is my conviction today, that it was right. Death can mean deliverance. Death is life.”
Unlike Dr. Brandt, most people recover from their rationalizations when remorse and reality set back in. But when morally disordered acts become the defining centerpiece of one's life, vice can permanently pervert reason. Entrenched moral aberrations then impel people to rationalize vice not only to themselves but to others as well. Thus rationalizations become an engine for revolutionary change that will affect society as a whole.
The power of rationalization drives the culture war, gives it its particular revolutionary character, and makes its advocates indefatigable. It may draw its energy from desperation, but it is all the more powerful for that. Since failed rationalization means self-recrimination, it must be avoided at all cost. For this reason, the differences over which the culture war is being fought are not subject to reasoned discourse. Persons protecting themselves by rationalizing are interested not in finding the truth, but in maintaining the illusion that allows them to continue their behavior. For them to succeed in this, everyone must accede to their rationalization. This is why revolutionary change is required. The necessity for self-justification requires the complicity of the whole culture. Holdouts cannot be tolerated because they are potential rebukes. The self-hatred, anger, and guilt that a person possessed of a functioning conscience would normally feel from doing wrong are redirected by the rationalization and projected upon society as a whole (if the society is healthy), or upon those in society who do not accept the rationalization...
The homosexual movement's rationalization is far more widely advanced in its claims. According to Jeffrey Levi, former executive director for the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, “We (homosexuals)_ are no longer seeking just a right to privacy and a right to protection from wrong. We have a right - as heterosexuals have already - to see government and society affirm our lives.” Since only the act of sodomy differentiates an active homosexual from a heterosexual, homosexuals want “government and society” to affirm that sodomy is morally equivalent to the marital act. “Coming out of the closet” can only mean an assent on the level of moral principle to what would otherwise be considered morally disordered.
And so it must be. If you are going to center your public life on the private act of sodomy, you had better transform sodomy into a highly moral act. If sodomy is a moral disorder, it cannot be legitimately advanced on the legal or civil level. On the other hand, if it is a highly moral act, it should serve as the basis for marriage, family (adoption), and community. As a moral act, sodomy should be normative. If it is normative, it should be taught in our schools as a standard. In fact, homosexuality should be hieratic: active homosexuals should be ordained as priests. All of this is happening. It was predictable. The homosexual cause moved naturally from a plea for tolerance to cultural conquest. How successful that conquest has been can be seen in the poverty of the rhetoric of its opponents. In supporting the Defense of Marriage Act, the best one congressman could do was to say, “America is not yet ready for homosexual marriage,” as if we simply need a decent interval to adjust ourselves to its inevitable arrival.
The homosexual rationalization is so successful that even the campaign against AIDS is part of it, with its message that “everyone is at risk.” If everyone is at risk, the disease cannot be related to specific behavior. Yet homosexual acts are the single greatest risk factor in catching AIDS. This unpleasant fact invites unwelcome attention to the nature of homosexual acts, so it must be ignored."
