Traditional Values Coalition Opinion Editorial For publication on or after Facing The Truth About Homosexual Behavior By Rev. Louis P. Sheldon

Chairman, Traditional Values Coalition
Washington, DC – In 1987, a homosexual magazine called Guide published an article that laid out a detailed marketing plan for selling the normalization of homosexuality through the mass media. The article, "The Overhauling of Straight America,"* was eventually expanded into a full-length book called After the Ball: How America will conquer its fear & loathing of Gays in the 90’s.
Authors Marshall Kirk and Erastes Pill, writing in the Guide article, note the following: "In the early stages of any campaign to reach straight America, the masses should not be shocked and repelled by premature exposure to homosexual behavior itself. Instead, the imagery of sex should be downplayed and gay rights should be reduced to an abstract social question as much as possible. First let the camel get his nose inside the tent—only later his unsightly derriere!" The objective has been to portray homosexuality as a fixed, unchangeable sexual identity—one that is determined at birth. This is untrue, but the propaganda campaign has largely succeeded.
The plan was—and still is—to present the controversy surrounding homosexuality as a civil rights issue—not about dangerous and unnatural homosexual behaviors. In addition, this marketing campaign includes an effort to portray homosexuals as victims of an intolerant society who need special legal protections. Kirk and Pill note: "In any campaign to win over the public, gays must be cast as victims in need of protection so that straights will be inclined by reflex to assume the role of protector." Kirk and Pill also recommend smearing their enemies, comparing them to the KKK and Nazis. They write: "To be blunt, they must be vilified….we intend to make the antigays look so nasty that average Americans will want to dissociate themselves from such types."
This marketing plan—designed to hide the facts about homosexual behavior, to portray homosexuals as victims, and to vilify their enemies—has been wildly successful. A compliant mainstream media has helped homosexuals accomplish many of these goals. One major newspaper syndicate, for example, has given homosexual activist Deb Price a weekly column to promote Kirk and Pill’s propaganda campaign.
Fortunately, there are still voices of sanity who are speaking out against the effort to portray homosexual behavior as normal and determined by birth. One such individual is Dr. A. Dean Byrd, vice president of the National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH). Dr. Byrd authored "The Innate-Immutable Argument Finds No Basis In Science." In it, he quotes a number of homosexual researchers and activists who admit that they can find no genetic basis for homosexual behavior.
One of those is Dean Hamer who tried to find a genetic cause for homosexuality by examining the DNA code at the end of the X chromosome. According to Hamer: "There is not a single master gene that makes people gay . . . . I don’t think we will be able to predict who will be gay."
The words of homosexual activist Camille Paglia are equally telling: "Homosexuality is not ‘normal.’ On the contrary, it is a challenge to the norm . . . Nature exists whether academics like it or not. And in nature, procreation is the single relentless rule. That is the norm. Our sexual bodies were designed for reproduction . . . No one is born gay. The idea is ridiculous . . . homosexuality is an adaptation, not an inborn trait."
Dr. Byrd’s article is must reading for anyone who wants to understand the true nature and origin of homosexual behaviors. It deserves to be widely distributed to educators, legislators, and to editors and reporters. It is available at: www.narth.com/docs/innate.html.

And what tool do homosexuals reach for when trying to force their unwanted association on others? Government. They appeal to the ridiculous notion that people are entitled to access the property of others agianst their will, through affirmative action and anti-discrimination laws. But discrimination is a right. No one has the right to access the property of an unwilling property owner. No one has the right to join a club which doesn't want them. No one has a right to employment from an unwilling employer. But government destroys the legitimate rights of the business owners, and employers, and clubs, and associations, in the name of the false "civil rights" which actually stand in violation of legitimate rights.
And what other tools do homosexual activists use? Why they use the public schools of course. They sneak in, assert their agenda, and they do so by gaining control of the school infrastructure. But the problem here, is the very EXISTENCE of public schools. They are socialistic by nature, and they compel unwilling individuals to pay for the advancement of ideas they don't approve of (which is fundamentally immoral).
But rather than argue for the restoration of the legitimate right of free association, and the elimination of public schools, people calling themselves "conservatives" mistakenly reach for the same tool that their opposition is using. They reach for government.
And so homosexual activists and confused "conservatives" are locked in a death struggle for control of the "big government stick". They both want to use the stick to beat their enemies into submission. And both are unmindful of the fact that it is the existence of the stick (government subjugation of legitimate rights) which is the problem.
And what happens each time people appeal to government to control their neighbors, and force them to conform? Why government grows larger and more intrusive of course, and things we used to recognize as rights fall by the wayside.
And so it goes.
Liberty is the only answer, but neither side will reach for it, and they will eventually destroy what's left of the republic in their struggle.
This is perhaps the most utterly stupid thing I have ever read.
You and your sodomite buddies insist on shoving your disgugisting culture of in death in peoples' faces and using government abuse of power to make them accept what everyone know is wrong. You trash suborn public education to brainwash children. You nazis extort my tax dollars to treat your disgusting diseases, so stuff your false victinology and go back to n.a.m.b.l.a. where you belong.
Exactly, except I think that EVERYONE's sexual proclivities should stay in the closet. I don't want someone's sexual preferance to be the first think I know about that person. It is not a qualifier on any grounds, it does not signify race, it does not signify religion, it does not signify anything other than basically, the truth be told, where you get your sexual satisfaction. WHO NEEDS TO KNOW THIS? And if people who are kinky, or who like to achieve sexual gratification with someone of their own sexual persuasion persist in forcing their bedroom preferance on the rest of us, well, they can simply suffer the consequence. That's life.
Actually read the thread, then get back to me.
Dolt.
You can't legislate "choices." :~)
sw
What is the point of posting drivel like this?
In addition to combating public schools, can't we attack the enforcing of one's personal "morality" on others whenever and wherever we see it ... including the promotion of homosexuality in the schools?
Others are crying in the way of individualism, "Liberty!" But is not an abused and excessive liberty somehow close to the key to this whole issue? From Adam on, the fall of man, into whatever sin, is always under cloak of "liberty!"
In a survey published in The Australian Jan 16, many people admit to having fornicated or masturbated in public; you can go to live-sex shows; a reporter for The Age observed nudists masturbating in the sand dunes. You have mentioned open displays of fellatio. So how long before homosexual acts are performed in public?
While applauding every new deviant form of degradation, the media carefully avoid saying what the practice of homosexuality actually is. That is no accident, as the essay above itself observed. In all FR posts today, not one person has defined the homosexual act.
If someone from a more innocent planet were to pick up on this thread, he, she or it would not know what we are talking about. If it were stated, would journalists and politicians still say they support it? If it were defined, would not children be naturally revolted?
So, what is the practice of homosexuality? It is sodomy. What is sodomy? It is anal sex. What is anal sex?
It is when a man puts his erect penis into the anus, or poo-hole, of another man, or in the case of child molestation into the anus of a child, and makes like a dog in the street until emission of semen occurs.
Sacred human seed is thus mingled with faeces, with all the symbolism which that entails.
Btw, is Genesis 18-19 at all informative to those of you who have never yet read it? Your response would be interesting to know.
Uhhhh.... yeah, that must be it.
This is the sh-t waving the stick.(No off-color double-entendre intended)!The obsession lies with the homosexuals' insistence that;
1.You and I agree that their "life-style" is no different morally than heterosexuality.
2.That anyone who believes that homosexuality is wrong is guilty of a crime!
3.Regardless of what you think about the matter,your children should be taught from an early age that this is an acceptable alternative to normal,heterosexual relations.
At least you chose to use two words,pathology and obsession,that are indispensible in any frank discussion of this issue.
Hic dicta,I agree with your assertion that the issue of what people do in the privacy of their homes is not the proper business of government at any level.
Yes. And I know you were just kidding, but I do think that if you, an adult, want to see pornography it's up to you. You should have access to such things if you want it. I've seen plenty. People should be able to do what they want as long as it doesn't harm others. I think that's what you call the pursuit of happiness.
Although it was of no particular value, that almost qualified as a semi-lucid moment for you.
Keep at it, and you'll make a whole sentence one day.
Dude, you need to find a new preoccupation.
This one clearly has you thinking about it far too much.
Finally, we agree on something.
The current problem is WHO is giving the law, and to WHOM is the law given.
