AFA Issues: Homosexual Agenda Articles
Several of the "goals" of the homosexual community taken from their own literature:
1. Homosexuals "demand passage of a Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender civil rights bill" and the "repeal of all sodomy laws and other laws that criminalize private sexual expression between consenting adults."42
It is important to identify the far-reaching implications of the repeal of such laws against certain sexual behaviors or the implementation of laws protecting such sexual behavior as a "civil right." What would happen, for example, to a church that fired a minister because of homosexual activity? What would take precedence, the rights of the church to maintain that homosexuality, even between consenting adults, is morally wrong and that their ministers should be held to such a standard, or the "civil rights" of the minister to engage in such activity? It is not enough for the homosexual community to claim that all they want is for the activity not to be criminalized. To treat homosexuality as a civil right is to enable the courts to allow the activity wherever civil rights are protected.
2. Homosexuals "demand legislation to prevent discrimination against Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals and Transgendered people in the areas of family diversity, custody, adoption and foster care and that the definition of family includes the full diversity of all family structures."43 Furthermore, they favor giving NO preferences to normal mother-father parents in the adoption/foster care process.
3. Homosexuals "demand full and equal inclusion of Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, and Transgendered people in the educational system, and inclusion of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender studies in multicultural curricula, to include mandatory pro-homosexual/ anti-"homophobia" training for staff and students, etc.
4. Homosexuals seem to favor leniency regarding pedophilia. According to one of San rancisco’s newspapers for homosexuals, NAMBLA’s [North American Man/Boy Love Association] position on sex is not unreasonable, jst unpopular. The love between men and boys is at the foundation of homosexuality."
5. Homosexuals seek "institute training for all personnel on the acceptance of homosexual or bisexual personnel in the military."
6. Homosexuals seek to undercut the social authority of churches. "We can undermine the moral authority of homophobic churches by portraying them as antiquated backwaters, badly out of step with the times and with the latest findings of psychology. …Such an unholy alliance [science and public opinion] has worked before [against institutional religion] on such topics as divorce and abortion. With enough open talk about the prevalence and acceptability of homosexuality, that alliance can work again here."47
7. Homosexuals seek to make their homosexuality more accepted by society. "The first order of business is desensitization of the American public concerning gays and gay rights. …You can forget about trying to persuade the masses that homosexuality is a good thing. But if you can get them to think that it is just another thing with a shrug of their shoulders, then your battle for legal and social rights is virtually won."48
These examples illustrate that acceptance of the homosexual agenda would restructure America in fundamental areas including public policy regarding sexual behavior, family issues such as family structure, custody laws, adoption, foster care, educational issues, government policy, and military.<
This guy is a propagandists. He uses terms like Culture of Death, juggernaught, Culture of Life and his fellow travellers use gaystapo and the like to paint all homosexuals with the same brush as the extremists.
The individual people are the ones who suffer when you lump everbody behind the actions of activists and then use it to deny the rights of each person. Danger, Will Robinson.
Someone has to stand up to the gay activist intimidators and their non-stop attack on children.
LOOK AT US, DAMMIT! WE'RE GUMBY!
I wonder how his wife feels about how he spends his time.
I've been a conservative since 1964 and on this site since August 98, so guess again why I came here.
Oh please. Why don't you tell me all about the local homosexual non-stop attack on children? Point out the programs/people/groups that are targeting kids. Be specific.
