I applaud you in starting the Moral Absolutes ping. I certainly agree that the gay lobby has been successful in glamorizing their lifestyle and depicting it as normal. I view homosexuality as a mental aberration, but one not likely to ever gain mass acceptance. My main concern is that heterosexual sins are winked at by most conservatives. The epidemic of divorce and illegitimacy is far more disastrous to society than homosexuality, which is a fringe phenomenon, yet you seldom see conservatives ranting and raving about divorce, fornication, and infidelity. Jesus said that those who lead these little ones into sin would be better off if the had a millstone tied around their necks. Who leads more little ones into sin: the tens of millions of divorced parents, the tens of millions of unmarried parents, or the few thousand gays who, by their very nature, cannot reproduce? Our country is inundated with fatherless children, many of them destined to lives of crime and /or poverty. It wasn't gays who brought them into being, then abandoned them. Meanwhile, I know of lesbian couples who support adopted children abandoned by others. Now who is more guilty of leading little innocent ones into sin and suffering?

Again, I as a Christian do not give a bleep what Muslims or any other primitive cult believes about "crimes against nature." No so-called "religion" has a track record of caring about the innocent, or forgiving the sinner, the way Christianity does.

When I discuss moral absolutes as taught in all the religions of the world, I leave out Islam, just fyi.

I do agree that no one should “wink” at other sins, particularly sexual sins. But by normalizing homosexual and legalizing it - including legal protection, all other sexual sins are made “cleaner” by comparison. It is the vanguard to normalize all illiicit sex, including pedophilia and bestiality. Homosexuals are driven to change the world to suit them, and they are busy doing just that. It is not a fringe phenomenon, as you would see if you read even a fraction of the articles pinged out to the Homosexual Agenda pinglist. It is indeed not only gaining mass acceptance, but laws are being enacted, or judicial decisions, forcing people to hire, rent to, placate, listen to, learn about homosexuality in every form, from “Gay Pride” parades, homosexuals adopting and fostering children, clubs in schools and so on.

Books promoting homosexuality are read to children in public schools starting in the lowest grades - “Heather Has Two Mommies” - but I’ve never heard of books called “Mommy Works at the Strip Club” or “Boyfriend number 10 Watches Porn while Mommy Goes to the Welfare Office”. Of course those behaviors are destructive and evil. But so far those behaviors are not forced on us as normal and natural by law, yet.

Homosexuality is.
