THE 'GAY SPIN ZONE'
American Family Association ^ | August 21, 2002 | Stephen Bennett

Posted on 08/22/2002 8:01:02 AM PDT by NYer

Day in and day out, America is getting bombarded with 'pro-gay' propaganda. It's relentless. You can't open a newspaper or magazine, listen to the radio, or turn on the television without someone, somewhere pounding the 'glories of gayness' into your brain.

Stories that would never have aired or have been published twenty years ago are now common place. 'Homosexual Male Couple Proud Parents of Quadruplets.' 'Rosie and Gal Pal Kelly Expecting.' 'Male Gay Couple Crowned King and Queen of High School Prom.' What once was considered a deviant perversion, is now politically correct -- and woe to those who oppose this new 'rainbow' morality. Those who disagree with this new 'alternative' lifestyle are called 'hate-filled, intolerant, bigoted homophobes.'

The calculated, planned 'homosexualization' of America by militant 'gays' and lesbians was encouraged well over a decade ago by homosexual advocates Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen in their book After the Ball: How America Will Conquer Its Fear and Hatred of Gays in the 90's (1989, Doubleday/Bantam). Kirk and Madsen mapped out a plan to 'turn the tables' on America and switch the bigotry aimed at homosexuals -- to those who would oppose them. The book plays out almost like a prophetic book of the Bible.

The Harvard-trained social scientists in the late '80s issued a call for 'gay' activists to adopt "... carefully calculated public relations propaganda." Their plan came dressed up in marketing lingo: "Desensitize, Jam and Convert." A better word to describe their call to 'homosexualize' America: manipulation. Listen to what the book says -- you won't believe it.

'Desensitization,' write Kirk and Madsen, means subjecting the public to a "continuous flood of gay-related advertising, presented in the least offensive fashion possible. If 'straights' can't shut off the shower, they may at least eventually get used to being wet." Friend, they're not talking about advertising a product here, but advertising homosexuality.

"The main thing is to talk about gayness until the issue becomes thoroughly tiresome," they say. "If you can get [straights] to think homosexuality is just another thing -- meriting no more than a shrug of the shoulders -- then your battle for legal and social rights is virtually won."

'Jamming' is smearing anyone who disagrees with the homosexual agenda. "Jam homo-hatred [i.e., opposition to homosexuality] by linking it to Nazi horror," urge Kirk and Madsen; associate all who oppose homosexuality with images like "Klansmen demanding that gays be slaughtered," "hysterical backwoods preachers," "menacing punks," and a "tour of Nazi concentration camps where homosexuals were tortured and gassed."

Moreover, they add, "Gays can undermine the moral authority of homo-hating churches over less fervent adherents by portraying [them] as antiquated backwaters, badly out of step ... with the latest findings of psychology. Against the atavistic tug of 'Old Time Religion' one must set the mightier pull of science and public opinion .... Such an 'unholy' alliance has already worked well in America against the churches, on such topics as divorce and abortion .... [T]hat alliance can work for gays."

The authors urged homosexuals to cast themselves as 'victims.' By doing so, homosexuals are able to "invite straights to be their protectors."

'Conversion' means "... conversion of the average American's emotions, mind, and will, through a planned psychological attack, in the form of propaganda fed to the nation via the media." Obviously, beyond a shadow of a doubt, Kirk and Madsen's devious plan has succeeded.

CBS. NBC. ABC. CNN. Showtime. MTV. VH1. Even the children's network Nickelodeon. A new 'gay cable channel' is in the works. Over 28 'gay' or lesbian characters or shows are currently on during so called prime time 'family hour.' All are following Kirk and Madsen's grand scheme -- and America has bit the bait. We've been duped. Like lambs, we are all being led to the slaughter.


Stephen Bennett
I hardly watch television at all anymore. I can't stand to take another painful injection of 'tolerance and acceptance.' Unlike the majority of most other 'over medicated' Americans, I refuse to take the pro-gay media's medicine any longer.

One night about two years ago I stumbled across this nation's fastest growing phenomenon -- Bill O'Reilly and The O'Reilly Factor. I was instantly hooked. 8 pm EST, my wife knew where to find me.

Who was this guy? Where did he come from? He told it like it was. He was bold, cocky -- but more importantly, he was right on the money. 9/11. The American Red Cross scandal. The celebrities. Music and today's youth. This guy confronted issues that many wouldn't touch. He was great. 'The No Spin Zone.' Bill O'Reilly was my new hero!

It wasn't long though before my conservative bubble burst and I sadly realized the homosexual movement even got to my 'champion.'

Week after week, month after month, it was obvious the man and network I trusted for 'fair and balanced news' was playing on 'both sides of the fence' on the issue of homosexuality. How could this be? While Bill would report on clearly ridiculous stories involving homosexuality, he would actually accept and promote the lifestyle in others. I began to question this 'former school teacher-turned-Superman' who truly seemed to have a sincere desire for looking out for the 'best interests of children.' But why not on this issue?

It sadly all made sense last week on The O'Reilly Factor as Bill made himself quite clear on his position.

While addressing two lesbians on camera, he told them, [paraphrased] "... Shut up. Over 90% of Americans agree with me and don't want to know about your [alternative] families."

Yet in the next sentence though he smiled, laughed, and said, "... Really ladies, we really appreciate you coming on the show. The reason we have lesbians on is because we want lesbians to watch The Factor."

Sad to say, one by one, even the most conservative crowd in the media are caving into the homosexual's sinister plan.

(As an aside, O'Reilly and Greta Van Susteren of Fox News are scheduled panelists at the upcoming National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association National 2002 Convention, September 12-15 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Among the NLGJA's objectives are to "... advocate for the highest journalistic and ethical standards in the coverage of lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender issues [in the news], and ... strengthen the identity, respect and status of lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender journalists in the newsroom).

Today, homosexuality is chic. It's in. It's big business -- and I guess so are the ratings from the homosexual audience. Yet while the media continues its bombarding of America with homosexuality, unfortunately, America's children are the ultimate casualties.

Innocent little boys and girls are having their childhood ripped from them as they are daily being indoctrinated into homosexuality via their public schools. The homosexual's main goal is to wipe out 'homophobia' in one generation -- by getting the children now.

Homosexual and homo-sympathetic teachers through 'gay' front organizations such as GLSEN (The Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network), PFLAG (Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays), and a host of others are unfortunately accomplishing this.

In public schools across the nation, kindergarten children are being read Daddy's Roommate and Heather Has Two Mommies -- two beguiling books promoting homosexuality and 'gay' parenting. Our little ones are being fed the lie that homosexuality is normal and OK from kindergarten on up.

Bi-sexuality is growing in popularity at a frightening rate throughout middle and high schools across America. Homosexual books such as The Rainbow Boys, featuring a story about two males (an adult and minor) having anal sex while the adult's lover is out of town, are being assigned for student reading -- on your taxpayer dollars and mine.

America's students are being encouraged to be promiscuous and try the joys of homosexual sex, even though the deadly AIDS epidemic continues to infect millions. Latest statistics by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report almost 70% of male infection of AIDS in America is due to homosexual sex.

As a man who once WAS a homosexual until I was 28 years old, with well over 100 men sexually (men whom are dead today from AIDS), I am sounding the alarm and screaming from the mountain tops, "America, wake up!" It's only by God's grace I am still alive and never contracted HIV. Yet how can people be so blind and gullible to the secular media's 'gay spin' and manipulation on this immoral and potentially deadly lifestyle?

Today, I speak nationally and share the truth about homosexuality -- how no one is born that way, how it has everything to do with the childhood and complete change is completely possible. As a father now myself of a little boy and girl, my true heart's desire and passion is for the protection of America's children and I'll do whatever it takes to protect them. My message is not politically correct and many do not like me for boldly proclaiming the truth. I've learned early on whenever you confront sin, don't expect to win a popularity contest.

Kirk and Madsen successfully laid out their game plan for using the media to be the homosexual's main propagandist conduit -- and I am using their own plan as well. However, in 'their' waters, I am definitely a fish 'swimming up stream.'

Earlier this year, my wife and I fell victim to the pro-gay secular media's hammer as we were censored and deliberately misrepresented on national television on CBS/KingWorld's The Ananda Lewis Show. They didn't like our message that homosexuality was not something one was born with and that all homosexuals could completely change. They didn't like the fact that I said I was 'gay' and I completely changed. What even bothered them more was on national television I had the 'audacity' to use those vile and 'forbidden' words Jesus, God, and the Bible. Thus, the pro-gay hammer fell and they deleted the most important part of my story -- how I went from 'gay to straight.' Millions waited to hear how one could change -- and CBS/KingWorld left America hanging. [See Related Story]

That's the secular pro-homosexual media today for you. It's all too common -- and expected. Besides, it does not further nor help their diabolical agenda.

ABC's Nightline and Ted Koppel refuse to have me on. MSNBC's godfather of talk television Phil Donahue says, 'Thanks anyways.' CNN's Larry King, 'No thanks.' Connie Chung says, 'We're not interested.' CNN's Crossfire: 'Don't call us, we'll call you.'

I know all too well what this movement to 'homosexualize' America is all about. I'm a defector -- a traitor -- a 'gay' turned straight. My story and message is one that homosexual activists and the pro-gay secular media want silenced -- and they will do everything necessary to do so. I am the 'fatal' poison to the militant move's deadly and deceitful propaganda of 'love, tolerance and acceptance.' How sad though to think that we now live in day when the tables have been turned, when good is called evil, and evil is called good. May God forgive this nation for our vile wickedness.

Make no mistake about it. America is being seduced and deceived by the homosexual agenda. Our children are being indoctrinated and many are being infected with HIV.

There is a calculated agenda out there. They are after you, but more importantly, they are after your children. Television, radio, newspapers, magazines, and the Internet -- the media is the means. Kirk and Madsen have succeeded.

Beware of the media -- the 'Gay Spin Zone.' You are not being told the 'straight' story.

There are a lot of homos in high places in the print and broadcast media and the label 'homophobic' is the kiss of death.

Bingo!

That's it? That's your evidence that O'Reilly is part of the gay spin machine? And you say you watch regularly?

I saw that show and he said it tongue in cheek...I'm sure he doesn't mind if lesbos watch, but I don't think he's counting on it.

Look, O'Reilly isn't conservative and doesn't claim to be and if he were, he wouldn't carry water for anyone. I know that and that is why I respect him even though I disagree with him on several issues.

The MassNews and the PRC?!! You have GOT to be kidding me. A tabloid and a reactionary, agendized activist.

Ah, the ever faithful "consider the source" falacy. But what they report were not made-up events. They really happened. The sicko homo-promo crowd is after children. There can be no doubt about it. To deny it is to be either a useful idiot or a member of the cabal. Which are you?

These bullet points are a mirror image of individuals who I know who are gay.Right on the button.

Same here. My 65 year old uncle lives with his gay "companion" and has been for over 30 years. They both recently each got new "special friends" that live with them. I'm not phobic about it, but it does make me a little sad.

I've received several replies to that post (in other threads) that say the same thing.

One reason why threads such as these are unfortunate is that almost no one offers up reasoned public policy prescriptions. They serve more as an opportunity to vent. In my opinion, they serve little constructive purpose, but then that is just my opinion.

They may not reproduce, but they are sure trying to convert. Thank God for homeschooling. Just when I feel like drowning in despair over the apathy of people regarding acts such as these, I hear about how many parents are pulling their kids out of the public school system because enough is enough.

NIV Jude 1:3-25

 3.  Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints.
 4.  For certain men whose condemnation was written about  long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are godless men, who change the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.
 5.  Though you already know all this, I want to remind you that the Lord  delivered his people out of Egypt, but later destroyed those who did not believe.
 6.  And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their own home--these he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day.
 7.  In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.
 8.  In the very same way, these dreamers pollute their own bodies, reject authority and slander celestial beings.
 9.  But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not dare to bring a slanderous accusation against him, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"
 10.  Yet these men speak abusively against whatever they do not understand; and what things they do understand by instinct, like unreasoning animals--these are the very things that destroy them.
 11.  Woe to them! They have taken the way of Cain; they have rushed for profit into Balaam's error; they have been destroyed in Korah's rebellion.
 12.  These men are blemishes at your love feasts, eating with you without the slightest qualm--shepherds who feed only themselves. They are clouds without rain, blown along by the wind; autumn trees, without fruit and uprooted--twice dead.
 13.  They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their shame; wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness has been reserved forever.
 14.  Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men: "See, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones
 15.  to judge everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly acts they have done in the ungodly way, and of all the harsh words ungodly sinners have spoken against him."
 16.  These men are grumblers and faultfinders; they follow their own evil desires; they boast about themselves and flatter others for their own advantage.
 17.  But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold.
 18.  They said to you, "In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires."
 19.  These are the men who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
 20.  But you, dear friends, build yourselves up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit.
 21.  Keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.
 22.  Be merciful to those who doubt;
 23.  snatch others from the fire and save them; to others show mercy, mixed with fear--hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.
 24.  To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy--
 25.  to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.

 
Amen indeed!

"I’m familiar with your penchant for posting huge piles of propaganda in lieu of argument."

Ok then, skip the last four links if you don't have time to read them and deal with this:

Mainstream homosexual groups such as GLSEN are recommending books such as Young, Gay and Proud! to kids. That is a fact. As I pointed out, the recommended reading lists are posted on several of GLSEN's websites. That's GLSEN, the folks who claim to have 1000 GSA'a in schools across the country. That's GLSEN, the folks who say it's only about safety and tolerance. That's GLSEN, the folks who brought us "Fistgate" (listen on-line here).

GLSEN recommends books about anal sex to middle and high school aged kids. So does PFLAG. You stated "Obviously, NOBODY is 'being encouraged to be promiscuous and try the joys of homosexual sex'." Let me quote the book for you again:

"Doing it: Gay men...Many people don't know the anus is not only an organ to remove waste. It's very sexually exciteable...Your first few times having anal sex might be a little hard. You may have to practice a bit before it starts feeling really good. I sure did." (pg. 81)

GLSEN recommends the book for kids. The book encourages it's young readers to "practice a bit" when it come to anal sex. Sure sounds to me like GLSEN is encouraging kids "to be promiscuous and try the joys of homosexual sex". So what else is GLSEN teaching kids in the public schools and in their GSA's?

Now please explain to me how GLSEN and PFLAG's recommended reading lists contribute to their "mission".


(I'm logging off - we'll continue this tomorrow)
