Sad but true. What we really need to do is tell today's youth that you don't have to remain in the homosexual lifestyle. Here are a few links on the subject:

It's interesting that the Homecoming royalty was elected by the student body. Apparently this all doesn't matter to those kids. They voted.
"Like, you know what? I'm gay and if you have a problem with that, I really could care less," Cooperman said.
Couldn’t. You mean “couldn’t care less.”
When you say that you "could care less", you are implying that you currently care to a certain degree, which allows room for you to care less.
So now it's "cool" to be gay. I've been seeing this for a few years now, actually.
What an informed and progressive statement! I was unaware that being an arbiter of what's "cool" was part of a school psychologist's job description. In some schools smoking cigarettes (or other substances) is "cool", I wonder how MS Zacharski "feels" about that.
Not surprising. Reminds me of the time the retarded kid was elected class president at my h.s.
so does that mean he's the QUEEN and she's the King???
I bet they argued over who got to be the king and who got to be the queen.
Cigarettes were all the rage when I went to high school. "Cool" kids smoked. It ruined the health and lives of a lot of people. But, as these phases do, it passed and the nation is now working together to limit the influence of cigarettes in society. So be it also with homosexuality ... and may it be so before too many more lose their health or life.
Homosexual Agenda Ping.
This is a very sad (and likely very biased) article. Important points to consider: The huge number of "Gay Straight Alliance" type clubs - the article uses the word "explosive" in this connection. And how successful the indoctrination has been! It is now "cool" to be gay. Is the truth being told to these young high school students - that the gay life isn't so gay? That homosexuals suffer from early death and myriad diseases, loneliness, despair, drug and alcohol abuse and more at a much higher rate than their peers?
Or the ultimate truth - that no one has to be "gay"? It's elementary - we are not our desires. How many of us have all kinds of conflicting and contradictory desires flitting through our minds? (Hint - 100% of us.) Being human means being able to pick and choose which desires to follow, and which to reject.
And the more we focus on a desire and try to satisfy it, the larger and more demanding it becomes. If we ignore or reject a desire as morally wrong or bad for us, it gradually withers on the vine, so to speak. Our minds and its desires should be servant, not master. Animals don't have the faculty of introspection, but humans do.
One of the lies of the "gay" agenda promoters is that if someone has had one "gay" thought, desire, or experience, their identity is now "gay" forever and ever. This is nothing but a Big Lie. In that case, many of us are murderers, adulterers, child beaters, and more - just because such thoughts appeared in our minds.
Freepmail me and DirtyHarryY2K if you want on/off this pinglist.
(And it is not accidental that if someone absorbs his/her mind in sexually suggestive or explicit entertainment similar desires are much more likely to appear in the mind, which is recording everything put into it. Garbage in, garbage out.)
Final Note: No doubt the high school kids who don't think "gay is good" are silenced and afraid to speak out. Who wants to face a tribunal?
I'm confused--were they actually Ryan Cooperman and Jen Walner, or were they merely like them? Richard Simmons and Ellen Degeneres are like Ryan Cooperman and Jen Walner. I mean, I was like, Duh!
Ah, the propaganda has reached the kids. The filth is turned normal and the normal turned to filth.
Got all those links bookmarked for further reference, thanks for posting them.
If anyone has any doubts about whether homosexuals can change, please read the links Scripter posted!
gay
adj.
Showing or characterized by cheerfulness and lighthearted excitement; merry.
A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
Proverbs 15:13 (KJV)
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
John 16:33 (KJV)
No, what everyone really needs to do is to leave kids alone. Stop corrupting them, and stop dragging through the ins and outs of all forms of therapy. Keep the therapy a private matter just like the sin. LEAVE THE KIDS ALONE!
My first HS boyfriend turned gay after dating me. But he didn't come out of the closet until after HS.
Now he's a drag queen in Vegas. At least he's amusing!
I guess my theory is, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. By just being one opinion in the world of amorality, you make the whole thing harder. We should be fighting to keep this nonsense out of schools altogether. No gay anything. For that matter, no sex anything if they can't be moral about it. Leave it to families. If the schools were not such corrupting influences in the first place then you wouldn't be seeing homosexual kings and queens and everyone bragging about it. Your therapy push is way late. Keep them from falling prey to this evil in the first place. That's what you should focus on. Therapies need to be there, but not the way you suggest, imo. Pushing this in the schools just validates the premise that the subject belongs in schools. It causes more harm than good.
