Look out, Steve Case
AOL Chairman Steve Case probably thought he was leading a charmed life, devoid of controversy and political attacks.
Searching the Lexis-Nexis database, his own AOL website, and other sources, I have been unable to find this young billionaire saying or doing anything that could make him a target of the professional activist clique who seek to tear down anyone who gets out of line.
But no one can hide from these people. Not even Steve Case. He's about to become a witch to be hunted by the ever-present, ever-vigilant homosexual activist army that is so intolerant of any views or actions -- no matter how private they might be -- of high-profile people.
Recently, Gay.com (yes, Virginia, there is a Gay.com) broke what was for that news and information portal a big story. It seems Steve Case and his wife, Jean, gave over $8 million to a church.
Think of it -- a church! But it gets worse. This was a church that actually took seriously clear biblical injunctions against homosexual behavior. In other words, this was not one of those politically correct apostate churches with an anything-goes attitude. It's one of those nasty churches that still believes sin is sin.
Michaelangelo Signorile, a columnist of sorts for Gay.com, suggests Case owes his community some explanation for this outrage.
It wasn't enough for him that Jean Case issued a statement saying she "opposed discrimination" and "intolerance." Senor Signorile demands more. And he and his cohorts at Gay.com are willing to out some very personal details of the Cases' private life to bring them to their knees. (I won't dignify those hearsay accusations by repeating them here.)
There is even an underlying threat of a boycott against AOL if Steve Case doesn't change his evil ways.
And guess who's going to win this fight, folks? Not Steve Case. Not his wife. No sir. The winners in any war are always those who choose to fight -- not those who appease, not those who are conscientious objectors, not those who try desperately to compartmentalize their public lives and private lives.
Steve Case -- the jig is up. You've been caught. You've been exposed as a closet Christian. Now what are you going to do about it? Run and hide? Deny your faith? Stay in the closet? Stop giving to your church? Pretend this is not happening? Buy your way out of it? Sell your soul? Or will you do the right thing?
Steve Case's faith is about to be tested. Will he make excuses for what he has done? Will he make accommodations with those persecuting him? Or will he just try to get along with everybody -- even those who would burn him at the stake for his beliefs?
This is the game the enemy plays with us -- any of us who dare not to accept the worldly conventional wisdom that says men sleeping with men is just great, that women sleeping with women is an acceptable lifestyle, that sin is just an archaic concept from a dusty old book that has no relevance in our modern world.
There are too many fence-straddlers in America today. It's one of our worst problems. It's killing us. In the name of tolerance and diversity, we are destroying our culture -- the very culture that incubated unprecedented freedom over the last 200-plus years.
How bad is it? The Boy Scouts, as I have pointed out in recent columns, are the new subversives in this Brave New World of ours. Virtue is sin, and sin is virtue. It's an Orwellian nightmare on the horizon.
We're losing our freedom. We're giving it away. We're not even fighting for it. We're surrendering a little bit more every day.
No matter how rich you might be, no matter how powerful, soon you will not be able to find refuge from the decaying culture, from the barbarians at the gates.
Retreat is no longer an option. But neither is appeasement. Neither is holding the line. Neither is "conserving" the past. The only option is fighting back, telling the truth without embarrassment or shame, making the very tough climb back up that hill toward that shining city up there -- the one envisioned by our founding fathers.
Are you ready, America, for that challenge?
I hope Steve Case is ready to make the climb with us.
I remember early in AOL's history when they were small I wrote to Steve Case telling him about private rooms being used to trade Child Porn with obvious names like HornEDadsforGrlz4to8.
They responded by making such rooms protected - so outsiders could not see what was going on but the trading continued.
I wound up going to the violent crimes division of the FBI in Atlanta but back then they had very little computer knowledge... the situation went on for years and I've disliked Steve Case ever since.
