Radical Homosexuals Publish Guide Encouraging Homosexuality in the Young
Dear Colleague,
Today we report on a very disturbing development. The Human Rights Campaign, a radical homosexual lobbying group, has published a paper that encourages homosexual behavior and what they call "coming out." This group and this document should be fought by all people of goodwill. Scientific evidence shows that the lifesyle they promote is one that is fraught with disease and sadly even death.
Spread the word.
Yours sincerely,
Austin Ruse President

Radical Homosexuals Publish Guide Encouraging Homosexuality in the Young
The Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the largest homosexual lobbying group in the country, has just published a "Resource Guide to Coming Out" which encourages and promotes those with Same Sex Attraction Disorder, especially the young, to announce their homosexuality in public. HRC describes "coming out" as "the opportunity to thrive and flourish as a full human being."
Among other things, the guide encourages homosexuals with children to come out to their kids because, according to the guide, "children always want to know the truth about their parents' sexual orientation."
The guide goes on to explain some of the intricacies of the homosexual world, for instance, that "transgender includes transsexual people and cross-dressers as well as anyone expressing gender characteristics that don't correspond with characteristics traditionally ascribed to the person's sex or presumed sex." It also attempts to delineate the reasons behind various forms of homosexual behavior: "transvestite" is a "psychiatric term describing men and women who cross-dress for sexual gratification. Many people, however, do not cross-dress for that reason, but do so to express their transgender nature - and prefer the terms cross-dresser, drag king or drag queen."
HRC, an extremely powerful lobbying presence in Washington DC and elsewhere, also encourages homosexuals to adopt children, to use sperm banks for artificial insemination, to become foster and surrogate parents. The guide appears to be part of a larger effort on the part of HRC to normalize homosexual behavior in the eyes of the young. For instance, HRC provides articles, with titles such as "Goodnight Mommies" and "Papa and Daddy," to homosexuals with children with tips on getting children to accept their parents' new homosexual relationships.
Pro-family observers have charged that HRC's public image, that of a human rights group calling for toleration and diversity, does not accurately represent the truly radical nature of the homosexual movement it represents. For example, HRC has a direct link on its website to the International Lesbian and Gay Association (ILGA). ILGA was the first homosexual rights group to gain nongovernmental status at the United Nations, but lost this status when it was learned that some members of the group actively promoted pedophilia and homosexual activity between men and teenage boys. The notorious group North American Man Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) actually belonged to ILGA.
The initiation into homosexual behavior that HRC is promoting for confused adolescents and adults is thought by experts to threaten these people's physical and mental health. According to scientific data, homosexuals are particularly vulnerable to developing a range of diseases including hepatitis, gonorrhea, Giardia lamblia ("gay bowel disease"), anal cancer, and AIDS. Likewise, studies have found that the homosexual lifestyle is associated with a 40% shorter lifespan, compulsive behavior, violence, and increased risk for alcohol abuse and suicide. Studies also indicate that the average homosexual relationship is not monogamous, with hundreds or thousands of sex partners in a lifetime, with few such relationships lasting longer than two years.
David Morrison, a former gay activist who is now a prominent writer and speaker on Same-Sex Attraction Disorder, told Culture & Cosmos that "Coming out in the self-described gay community serves almost as a ritual of admission and recognition, almost akin to baptism." He adds, "To the extent that 'Coming Out Day' is meant to build support for active homosexuality, it is pernicious and genuinely not in the deepest interest of men and women living with SSA. In the young, in particular, it helps to cement the notion that one is gay or lesbian."

I think on the new Forum software you have to go to her Profile page, then hit "Links" at the top left corner.
I agree that without the heartfelt prayer to God, nothing else works (or even really exists) but still, I can't think there is nothing else to be done. In fact, if people of faith had spent the last 30 years a little more aggressively promoting moral absolutes, perhaps we wouldn't all be taking numbers for the heated handcart! I am seriously interested in your thoughts about what people of faith can do at this point to stem the tsunami of evil that seems to rise higher and higher, threatening the very existence of civilization.
