(AgapePress) - A Boston health clinic has admitted to distributing pornographic books to middle school students and others at a Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) conference hosted by a Massachusetts high school. Initially GLSEN Boston categorically denied its recent 15th Annual Conference event at Brookline High School featured sexually explicit materials.
However, the Fenway Community Center health clinic has admitted to passing out copies of "The Little Black Book -- Queer in the 21st century," a graphic how-to manual on homosexual sex. The superintendent of Brookline Schools has also acknowledged that the sexually explicit materials were made available at the conference when they should not have been, and he has apologized for that fact.
Prior to the health clinic and the school system confirming the truth, GLSEN Boston's office had maintained that the allegations of pornographic books at its conference were "categorically untrue," and were nothing more than lies "from the far right." As late as yesterday, the chapter's website had a notice posted on its "news & announcements" page, stating that the group "wants to assure everyone that there were no sexually explicit materials at the conference."
According to the web notice, the pro-homosexual organization prohibits "sexually explicit materials of any kind" at its conferences, and to permit them at one of its events "would be in violation of clearly stated policy." GLSEN Boston executive director Sean Haley was even quoted on the website as saying that the group assigns monitors to every workshop and event to assure that all policies are strictly enforced.
"No such materials, from AAC or anyone else, were ever present at the GLSEN conference in Brookline," Haley claimed, adding, "These allegations are simply lies." Wednesday night (May 18), however, GLSEN admitted to American Family Radio News that the inappropriate materials were indeed present at the April 30 event -- but would never be made available at one of its conferences again.

An Ex-Homosexual Viewpoint: The Impact of Indoctrinating Kids
Stephen Bennett is a former homosexual who now heads a Christian ministry that reaches out to individuals and families affected by homosexuality, offering hope, help and healing through Christ. As a national spokesman for this kind of outreach and as an evangelist to the homosexual community, he has been investigating the GLSEN Boston controversy.
In light of the latest developments, the founder of Stephen Bennett Ministries says he is "very thankful to Christ, because the truth has come out. The Bible does say whatever is done in the darkness is going to be made manifest in the light. I just thank God that this organization has had the guts to come forward and publicly admit that they made a very grave error."
The ex-homosexual spokesman says his whole purpose in getting involved in these events was not to demean anyone or anything, but to focus on the welfare of young people. "My whole drive on this was that this was affecting children. This pornographic, extremely graphic material was given to young children, which is completely unacceptable," he says.
Although Bennett was, along with other pro-family advocates, outraged over what happened at Brookline High School, he feels it is important to move forward. "I think that we need now to extend forgiveness on this issue," he says, "but I think we also need to reexamine the social impact of what happens when homosexuality is taught to children as normal and natural."
A Medical Opinion: The Risks of Homosexual Sex
Bennett is by no means singular in his contention that the material distributed at the GLSEN Boston conference is harmful to youth. Dr. John R. Diggs, MD, a Massachusetts physician and expert on sexually transmitted disease, issued a statement May 15 regarding the recent distribution of "The Little Black Book" at Brookline High School, contending that much of the so-called health information offered in the sexually graphic brochure "is patently wrong."
For instance, Diggs points out that the pro-homosexual booklet suggests that condoms have been shown to stop HIV when, at best, there is only an 85 percent reduction in transmission among stable couples engaged in intercourse. Meanwhile, he notes, most data on condom use and STD prevention is based on heterosexual intercourse, not sodomy, which is clearly riskier. The medical expert says the rates of anal cancer caused by HPV infection are very high and can be fatal, and condoms have not been shown to significantly reduce this risk.
But besides encouraging homosexual activity and promoting the condom-based "safe sex" myth, the Massachusetts doctor says "The Little Black Book" addresses abstaining from risky activity in a tongue-in-cheek manner, implicitly promoting "fun" over safety. "It is alarming, disheartening, and medically unethical," he asserts, "that this information be distributed to anyone."
Furthermore, Diggs states, the fact that the AIDS Action Committee's Little Black Book is "distributed at taxpayer expense to vulnerable and confused youth should awaken every citizen and legislator to immediately defund this organization, and the attorney general to pursue prosecution for endangering minors on a grand scale." He feels the pro-homosexual material in the booklet, which appears to have the endorsement of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, is unfit for consumption by anyone -- least of all children.
Excellent documentation. Thanks.
>>>so when is the DA going to slap the handcuffs on this guy<<<<
Isn't that when he gets to chapter 3 in the handbook?
Excellent thought...."death-style"....I like it.
David, thanks for the text.
Early morning barf, anyone?
GLSEN recruiting children for homosexual sex.
The really sick party is this is WHY GLSEN was founded. Their mission and job is to encourage and persuade as many CHILDREN to be "fresh meat" for the homosexuals.
This is why they have the "'gay' straight alliance" clubs, they are a DATING SERVICE for adults to recruit children.
http://www.forthechildreninc.com has audio tapes of exactly what these homosexuals want children to do.
EVERY YEAR there is a scandal and every year they DO THE SAME thing, distribute adult sexual material to children.
Thanks for all the information. I plan to print out this thread due to all the info.
Thanks again!
If you are going to paste in stuff that is pages and pages and pages long, use excerpts and a link. Otherwise, it's a thread hijacking, even if you think it's on topic. Or, start your own thread, if you think it's that important and timely and news worthy. That's how it works around here, and always has. It's called "courtesy."
See how EdReform did it at 31. That is the standard protocal around here. If you prefer to load up somebody else's thread with 20 times the information than was contained in the original thread, it's a thread hijacking.
That's fine, but for years and years here on this forum, dumping pages and pages and pages of your pet articles into a thread has constituted a thread hijacking. That's what links and excerpts are for. It's not David Lane's thread to take over, like force-feeding a turkey to a canary. It's just courtesy.
Can't these people be prosecuted? It seems to me that they can at least be charged with corrupting the morals of a minor and practicing medicine without a license. Indeed, if these materials were found on a suspect's computer they would rightly be considered kiddy porn. In a better world these smut purveyors would be charged with theft of a child's innocence.
If the parents of these kids don't file a class action lawsuit, they are the BIGGEST fools on earth!
Posting relevant information is a far cry from hijacking. What you refer to as "pet articles" are on point. If I were to break in and begin a discussion about what laundry detergent best removes axle grease from a poly-cotton blend, well, that would be hijacking. Again, if you want clarification, ask admin. They do more than just zot, after all.
It's not David Lane's thread to take over...
That almost sounds as if you are implying that all responses should be directed to you alone. That is not how a discussion-based forum works best.
Where are the parents??! Arrests should be made for the distribution of pornography to minors.
20 pages of AIDS conspiracy theory text is not on the subject of Massachusetts gay indoctrination of children. Post excerpts, post links, fine. But don't throw a whale on top of the tuna casserole at somebody else's party because you like the flavor.
