Pastor Fears Lesbian Couple's Complaint Against Catholic School May Open 'Pandora's Box'

A Baptist pastor in Oregon says a controversy in his state involving a lesbian couple exposes the true goal of the homosexual rights movement.

The couple has filed a complaint with the Eugene Human Rights Commission and the Oregon Child Care Division, alleging that O'Hara Catholic School refused admission to their four-year-old daughter because of their alternative lifestyle.

Kelly Boggs, pastor of Valley Baptist Church in McMinnville and a frequent columnist for Baptist Press, views the complaint as another attempt by homosexuals to force mainstream American society to accept their deviant behavior.

"It seems rather odd to me, if you are avowed, open homosexuals, that you would want your child in a setting whose teachings would eventually absolutely undermine or challenge your very lifestyle," he says.

Boggs believes the lesbian couple will probably file a lawsuit against O'Hara Catholic School, and that the case may open a "Pandora's box" of litigation against conservative institutions to force them to accept the homosexual lifestyle. The pastor urges other Christian schools and churches to be ready for similar legal challenges.

"Those of us who are conservative, who hold that the Bible is true and want to live our lives according to it, are going to have to stand together and perhaps share resources. And just don't be afraid -- I think that's exactly what the tactic is designed to induce, some intimidation so that we'll give in. I think we just have to stand up and be ready to fight a good fight," Boggs says.

Citing confidentiality concerns, the Archdiocese of Portland would not discuss the complaint brought against O'Hara Catholic School.

Finally, we will in all likelihood want to expunge a number of passages from your Scriptures and rewrite others, eliminating preferential treatment of marriage and using words that will allow for homosexual interpretations of passages describing biblical lovers such as Ruth and Boaz or Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. Warning: If all these things do not come to pass quickly, we will subject Orthodox Jews and Christians to the most sustained hatred and vilification in recent memory. We have captured the liberal establishment and the press. We have already beaten you on a number of battlefields. ... You have neither the faith nor the strength to fight us, so you might as well surrender now." Homosexual Manifestos

Inoohr_org_index.htm This essay was printed in the February 15, 1987 issue of the homosexual newspaper Gay Community News by Michael Swift, and was reprinted in the February 15-21 1987 Congressional Record. EXCERPT

We shall sodomize your sons, emblems of your feeble masculinity, of you shallow dreams and vulgar lies. We shall seduce them in your schools, in your dormitories, in your gymnasiums, in your locker rooms, in your sports arenas, in your seminaries, in your youth groups, in your movie theater bathrooms, in your army bunkhouses, in your truck stops, in your all-male clubs, in your houses of Congress, wherever men are with men together. Your sons shall become our minions and do our bidding. They will be recast in our image. They will come to crave and adore us. Women, you cry for freedom. You say you are no longer satisfied with men; they make you unhappy. We, connoisseurs of the masculine face, the masculine physique, shall take your men from you then. We will amuse them; we will instruct them; we will embrace them when they weep.

If you dare to cry faggot, fairy, queer, at us, we will stab you in your cowardly hearts and defile your dead, puny bodies.

There will be no compromises. We are not middle-class weaklings. Highly intelligent, we are the natural aristocrats of the human race, and steely-minded aristocrats never settle for less. Those who oppose us will be exiled. We shall raise vast, private armies, as Mishima did, to defeat you.

We shall conquer the world because warriors inspired by and banded together by homosexual love and honor are as invincible as were the ancient Greek soldiers. The family unit spawning ground of lies, betrayals, mediocrity, hypocrisy, and violence will be abolished. The family unit, which only dampens imagination and curbs free will, must be eliminated. Perfect boys will be conceived and grown in the genetic laboratory. They will be bonded together in a communal setting, under the control and instruction of homosexual savants.

We shall be victorious because we are fueled with the ferocious bitterness of the oppressed who have been forced to play seemingly bit parts in your dumb, heterosexual shows throughout the ages. We too are capable of firing guns and manning the barricades of the ultimate revolution. Tremble, hetero swine, when we appear before you without our masks!

I have said it here before and I will say it again......this is happening all over. We left a Methodist school that refused to stand for the Biblical interpretations. The issue was not whether they would be admitted,but how their lifestyle would be addressed. People are caving in to this agenda.

[At _War_With_Liberals]

Another pre-conceived test case to advance the radical homosexual agenda.

The fact that 2 les would want their daughter taught that it is not moral is laughable.

They want to limit the free speech of the org by stopping them from teaching Christian morality.

The fact that they are USING this child as the guinea pig means little to leftists.

If Sodomites and Lesbians cannot legally adopt children then HOW CAN THEY HAVE A 4 YR. OLD DAUGHTER?

Note to self...never vote for a candidate who wishes to promote homosexual adoption of children....

[Mean Daddy]

So let's see, they want to send their child to an institution where the child will be taught that homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of God. Is that right?

[bluelowrider57]

pandora's box of liberals saying (truthful words in brackets): How could you be so insensitive to these lesbians? they're just trying to live [sinfully and hellbound] their lives! We need a revival

[Old Sarge]

Heh heh heh... He said, "Open Pandora's Box!"

Shut up, Beavis...

[Orangedog]

The fact that they are USING this child as the guinea pig means little to leftists.

Using kids means little to the left OR right. Don't get me wrong, what these perverts is doing is wrong on a lot of levels, but both wings hop onto the "for the children" bandwagon that uses kids as pawns. Churches seem to be one of the few institutions remaining that don't.

[Orangedog]

If Sodomites and Lesbians cannot legally adopt children then HOW CAN THEY HAVE A 4 YR. OLD DAUGHTER?

One of two ways:

1) Sperm bank

or

2) The one that gave birth evicted the father from her kids life. Very easy to do since it's not just legal, it's public policy.

[At _War_With_Liberals]

How do repubs use kids as pawns?

[Sweet_Sunflower29]

The pastor urges other Christian schools and churches to be ready for similar legal challenges.

My children began attending a Christian school 4 years ago. Within the school policy handbook, there is a statment to be signed each year by the parents which reads-

'Should the school determine at its sole discretion that a parents actions do not support the ministry, the school has the right to request that the child leave the school.'

When I first saw that caveat, it struck me as odd; I guess I assumed that such ideas were a given. Times sure change, don't they?

[Salman]

If Sodomites and Lesbians cannot legally adopt children then HOW CAN THEY HAVE A 4 YR. OLD DAUGHTER?

Because one of them had a daughter the natural way before "coming out", or perhaps it was artificial insemination.

Despite the obvious fact that sodomy cannot beget children, the fact remains that many homosexuals have children. The infamous bishop has two by his ex-wife.

I don't know the law in Oregon, but in many parts of the USA, homosexuals can adopt.

[IronJack]

Here homosexual "rights" collide with First Amendment religious freedoms. The government that erases all traces of God from the public discourse will now have to decide whether to force an abominable sectarian agenda onto religious turf.

Place your bets ...

[Orangedog]

Your kidding, right?!

[adaven]

Nah, I bet the lesbos just want to see all the other little girls in their school uniforms.

[princess leah]

Well, the lesbians might not be changed, but what if the school said "sure we'd love to have your girl and then proceed to show that 4 year old many loving, caring godly families that are man and wife fit the plan that God set out for us...perhaps they need to override the gay agenda and try to imagine God's agenda for that 4 year old. The problem doesn't go away and I certainly don't advocate acceptance here, but that little 4 year old certainly will never understand a NORMAL relationship unless she is OUTSIDE of their sphere of friends!

The pastor gets it--now all he has to do is convince his fellow Baptists.

In principle, I don't have any problem with that. But the school may have feared other liability issues. Better perhaps to be sued for discrimination than over specific items of the curriculum one at a time.
