Homosexual Agenda Ping - Coming to a Theater Near You Alert.

Some say it won't/can't happen here. Well, what about all the other increments that couldn't happen here, and are now what passes for reality?

Let me know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

I suppose we could all just play pretend and think that everything will turn out all right even if we ignore the stated goals of the homosexual activists. But isn't that how things got to the present state in the first place?

Someone I was very close to as a child used to propose the same argument. I could see that person was right even then. Time has given greater credence to that argument.

A very good point. We can see their platform through-out the years here. Years 2000, 1993, 1987, and 1972 are quite informative.

Perhaps in the narrow sense, but not in the grand scheme of things. The reason "things got to the present state" was probably: (a) the success of the women's liberation movement that made a resurgence of societal homoeroticism inevitable; (b) the steady decline of the Christian influence due to its increasing disjunction with empirical reality.

The "gay liberation" movement is just a function of the first phenomenon (particularly of the feminist dismantlement of the intergenderal social compact) and its swift acceptance by Western civilization is a function of the second phenomenon (and part of much broader trend toward rejecting the vestiges of Eastern doctrinaire cultural imposition and reverting to the the Classical rationalist, syncretic norms).
