Just a reminder... Homosexuality: The bottom line: There is very little room for discussion on the core issues on this topic: The practice of homosexuality is sin. Sexual activity of any kind with a member of the same sex is always sin. Homosexual fantasy driven lust is sin, just as heterosexual fantasy driven lust is sin. But: A tendency toward homosexuality and homosexual temptation is not sinful. Being attracted to members of the same sex.), though not a sin, is less than God's will for that person. Practiced homosexuality has different, and sometimes more serious personal and social consequences than other forms of sexual sin. Homosexuality is arguably a more serious deviation from God's created order than other sexual sins, However, ultimately all sin is equally serious in God's eyes, and God loves a practicing homosexual no less than he does a practicing fornicator or adulterer. Homosexuals are human beings made in God's image for whom Christ died. Homosexuals are not less deserving of our love and courtesy than other 'sinners" but, rather, are similar to the sexually compromised and outcast people Jesus made a point of seeking out and being kind to. Range of views: Views on what it means to adequately provide for the legitimate "civil rights" (other than marriage) for homosexuals differ widely among O/Es. Most O/Es deny a biological basis for homosexuality, but some O/Es argue that even if some biological influence is granted, the cause of homosexual orientation has no bearing on the morality of homosexual behavior. Unacceptable: Forceful and sustained argument over the acceptability of homosexual marriage or adoptions; that the Bible does not prohibit homosexual activity, or that it does support homosexual marriage; that homosexuals cannot change and that it is discriminatory to argue that they can. Name calling or jokes about homosexuals, any discourtesy whatsoever to self-identified homosexuals, or advocacy of the OT death penalty for homosexuality.

Muslims, Catholics, Buddhists, Evangelicals and Hindus Unite Against Hamtramck Gay-rights Ordinance Dear Readers, It always strikes me as odd to see homosexual activists aligning themselves with American Muslims, who oppose homosexual practice as sinful in accordance with the religion, like faithful Christians and Bible-believing Jews. These photos from a rally in Hamtramck, Michigan reflect the appropriate political/sociological equation against homosexual activism: religious people (and moral people who are irreligious) cannot abide “rights” based on same-sex misbehavior (sin). In fact, as we’re seeing in California (where Christian doctors will now be forced to perform artificial inseminations for lesbians) and across the nation, the very outworking of government-enforced homosexuality-based “rights” is to oppress religious freedom. Americans will have to decide whether creating aberrant-sex- and gender-confusion-based “rights” — including “same-sex marriage” and its cowardly cousin, “civil unions” — is worth trampling on the historic religious and First Amendment freedoms that have defined the American republic since its beginning. –Peter LaBarbera, www.aftah.org http://americansfortruth.com/news/muslims-catholics-buddhists-evangelicals-and-hindus-unite-against-hamtramck-gay-rights-ordinance.html .

Parents Pressure New Brunswick High Schools To Cancel Homosexual Author's Lecture By Thaddeus M. Baklinski CHARLOTTE COUNTY, NB, October 15, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Parents of students in local high schools in a southwestern New Brunswick district have succeeded in persuading school board officials to change their minds about inviting homosexualist author Alex Sanchez to speak to their children. Sanchez was scheduled to speak to high school students in St. Stephen, St. Andrews and St. George on Oct. 21, but opposition from the communities resulted in the homosexual activist being disinvited. Keith Pierce, School District 10 Superintendent, said he changed his mind about allowing the author to speak in area schools after meeting with school principals, according to a CBC report. "A few of them were getting pressure from a few parents, and they just weren't comfortable going in that direction," Pierce said, adding that the principals felt their schools were just "not ready" for the kind of presentation that Sanchez would give. Sanchez is known for his pro-homosexuality teen novel Rainbow Boys, and was being brought to the area by the Charlotte County Rainbow Support Group, a homosexual indoctrination organization. http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2008/oct/08101507.html .

I served on the local School Board for a few years, if any member had suggested using this freak to speak to the kids; they would have been tarred, feathered, and run out of town. The high school kids have enough to deal with without letting this homosexual predator loose in their midst, and especially giving him creedence by the invite. Thanks RC

Thanks RC I thought Christians were to oppose homosexuality in a loving but firm manner? I think a mere, "I disagree with his lifestyle and would not want him speaking to my kids" would suffice. No need to call him a "freak" and a "predator" on top of that.

The sex offender registry creates more fear and panic than the release of any other criminal. Yet, having worked as a the supervising porbation officer of sex offenders for five years, co-facilitating sex offender treatment, the thinking that permeates much of the homosexual community (not all) is no different than the thinking that got most sex offenders onto the registration. Lifestyles that are based on sex tend to be predatory in that nearly all relationships entered are for personal sexual gratification by using another person. Sometimes these relationships evolve into friendships, but more often than not these relationship are about self, satisfying personal urges via the use of another.

Boycott Successful: McDonald's Abandons Homosexual Activism When the boycott started, I sent McDonald's an email stating that I did not support their decision to support the gay agenda, and I got no email back. Once the boycott ended, I sent an email to McDonald's thanking them for staying neutral by not supporting the gay agenda and I got an email back in less than a day. The email reply stated that Richard Ellis was offered a job for McDonald's in Canada which is why he left the NGLCC board. The tone of the email was that McDonald's did not intentionally withdraw from supporting the gay agenda for any reason, Mr. Ellis simply moved to a different location which would prevent him from participating in the NGLCC board. I'm inclined to think McDonald's just told the AFA what they wanted to hear because Mr. Ellis was leaving anyway. I'm going to continue to avoid McDonald's regardless of if the boycott is on or not... it's not like I'll be missing any good food or anything ;)

Apple Donates $100K to Support Gay Marriage - Apple is getting political. The Cupertino-based company announced Friday that it will donate $100,000 to the "No on 8" campaign, which is working to defeat a California ballot initiative that would ban gay marriage in the state. "Apple was among the first California companies to offer equal rights and benefits to our employees' same-sex partners, and we strongly believe that a person's fundamental rights — including the right to marry — should not be affected by their sexual orientation," Apple wrote on its Web site. "Apple views this as a civil rights issue, rather than just a political issue, and is therefore speaking out publicly against Proposition 8." In May, the California Supreme Court struck down a state ban on gay marriage. Proposition 8 would reverse that decision. Proposition 8 "eliminates the right of same-sex couples to marry," according to the statute. It "changes [the] California Constitution to eliminate right of same-sex couples to marry, [and] provides that only a marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California." Google last month also urged California residents to vote against Prop 8.

I guess with my home state's heated efforts to either legitimize/strike down recognized gay marriage, I would like to offer my personal opinions (provided nobody else have taken note and done it for me ): I recalled in reading some celebrity comments about the institution of marriage, there's always some that will (snobbishly?) opine that it's just a legal contract, or a piece of paper. Yet, when something like Prop 8 comes into play, some of those same Hollywood elite (i.e. Natalie Portman... sorry Princess Amidala ) are advocating the legal right for gays & lesbians couples to openly marry--NEVER MIND the fact isn't this the same legal right that THEY like to ridicule as outdated, oppressive, etc...? I don't know about everyone here, but I was almost reminded of this ironic piece of wisdom from none other than Gore Vidal, when he said in some past, TIME magazine interview that if traditional heterosexual marriage is such a disaster for the straight world, why then should the gay community adopt this likewise? And this mind you, is coming from someone who's lauded as one of the 20th century's, greatest lions of the left--who just so happens to have shared a gay relationship with his late partner, Howard Auger! *I'm thinking Vidal is following a relationship version of the, "If-it-ain't-broke, why-fix-it?" philosophy! Personally, I'm facetiously speculating the possibility that it won't be long until there's a "revolutionary" new dysfunctional family sitcom--featuring two bickering gay parents, in the tradition of Married With Children!* *and I'm thinking the same Fox News Channel owner, Rupert Murdoch, will be tucking this as another laurel to his media empire resume!

If indeed these statistics are accurate, why won't ordinary school policies against harassment apply? Some believe the survey, which is apparently based on subjective impressions, is a tool for homosexual activists to normalize their lifestyle and suppress the expression of those who disagree. quote:

Actually, in Western Europe in general marriage as an institution has been in long term decline, especially in Northern Europe. Indeed, that is rather the excuse most same-sex marriage advocates give; it's 'no worse' than bad heterosexual marriages. But this is a little like saying that alcoholism is no better than addiction to crack; that may be true, but that isn't a good argument to legalize crack.

But this is a little like saying that alcoholism is no better than addiction to crack; that may be true, but that isn't a good argument to legalize crack. What does this have to do with the impact of same sex marriage on heterosexual marriage?
