I think it demonstrates a lack of separation of church and state, as well as an act of cultural imperialism, for US embassies to fly the homosexualist flag. People have a right to hold traditional moral views on sex and sexuality. The government should not be endorsing views inimical to many religious believers, but at most should be neutral.

So you're saying the government should, "be neutral" and allow moslems to throw queers off of buildings.

The way to reverse this trend is to end the political indoctrination in schools. School choice is one piece of the puzzle, as well as returning control of the schools to their local communities.

“...an act of cultural imperialism, for US embassies to fly the homosexuality flag. People have the right to hold traditional moral views on sex and sexuality...”

Agreed. But the US is going beyond merely flying the rainbow flag on our embassies. The Obama administration has been pressuring third world countries to endorse LGBT rights, and if not, to risk sanctions and withholding of aid.
Obama has tried to force the UN to sign on to the Yogyakarta Principles (google it) as well, attempting to link Yogyakarta to the UN’s declaration on the Rights of Children. It’s outrageous. So far, the UN has not accepted Yogyakarta.
There is major pushback from third world countries, particularly in Africa, and including Obama’s Kenya. Homosexuality and Hollywood values are rejected as “cultural colonialism” or imperialism, as you have aptly put it, and regarded as a direct threat to children.

Separation of church and state is a false narrative created by the atheist left & secular humanists to oppose things like prayer in schools and a nativity scene in front of your local town hall. I think what you’re referring to is the right to religious freedom guaranteed by the Constituion (no, Islam is not a religion). Religious freedom died a long time ago once tax payer funding of BS “non-profits” like Planned Parenthood forced those religiously opposed to abortion & contraception to pay for it. There are countless other examples.

Where we are in the fight against gay marriage was only the logical end point once people embraced things like removal of school prayer, elimination of “Merry Christmas” from our culture, “sexual freedom”, contraception and, subsequently, abortion.
