ArchivedA question for straight peopleWith regard to hateful propaganda and bigotry one need not go far. I read the Board Administrators comments on this topic. Obviously I've removed most of the parts I didn't want you to pay attention to because, frankly it's easy just to go up top and read the whole thing.
In any case, words like perversion or yet again comparing what he terms the homosexual agenda to pedophilia is a bit harsh don't you think?
Suppose gay people went around and called Christianity a 'perversion'. What if a majority of gay people called Jesus and his disciples pedophiles. What if gay people said that Jesus' mother Mary wasn't impregnated by god but rather was unfaithful in her marriage.
Well, I can tell you what. We could be yelled at on high as bigots and evil spirited people. BTW, and before you say it, some gay people do say such things about Christans but the MAJORITY do not. And I no more support gay people who say evil and mean spirited things about Christans than I like Christans who say evil mean spirited things about me.

Considering the Homosexual Agenda (Part 1)
As Christians, we strongly stand by our God who says that homosexuality is perversion (Rom. 1:26-2. However, we do not want to be misunderstood in our purpose. God does not hate the homosexual, for He sent His Son to die for the gay and lesbian too (John 3:16-17). Neither is our purpose to promote violence toward these persons (two wrongs do not equal a right, cf. Rom. 12:17), nor do we consider the homosexual to be a lesser being. Christians view homosexuals as the Bible says; persons who are in need of God’s forgiveness, and those who God is willing to forgive when they cease their practice of sodomy(i.e. repentance, cf. Luke 13:3). While considering this series of articles, please keep in mind that this author has no ill feelings toward the individuals who are involved in homosexuality; instead, the problem pertains to the sin itself, and with the portrayal of homosexuality as an alternative lifestyle as opposed to God’s divine institution of marriage between male and female (Gen. 2:21-25, Matt 19:1-9).
The greatest achievement for the gay and lesbian community is the shifting of the debate from "that of behavior to that of identity." They have succeeded in changing their image from generally being considered sinful and loathsome, to now advocated by liberal politicians and Hollywood as a clean alternative to heterosexual marriage. What happened? Gays and lesbians "coming out of the closet" did not occur by way of chance, but with a planned agenda. Marshall K. Kirk and Erastes Pill wrote an article in the 1997 November issue of Guide Magazine entitled: "The Overhauling of Straight America" in which is listed the gay itinerary. Number one on Kirk and Pill’s list is to, "Talk about gays and gayness as loudly and as often as possible." It was not an arbitrary statement to say that America has been bombarded with the homosexual agenda.. The intent of this strategy is to dull the normal person’s resistance to homosexuality. Once we hear about something long enough, we reach a point when we no longer are alarmed by it. Think of the potential danger that is still lying ahead. What if pedophiles (child molesters) decide to use the same course of action with their debauchery; will we turn away from this too after a period of time? Will pedophiles be deemed victims and heros one day like gays and lesbians in America? Dear reader, this process is already underway.
One can easily observe the dishonesty in their approach. Gays and lesbians have to manipulate the American society’s thinking about homosexuality in order to make their own perverted lifestyle acceptable. What deception! It must be understood that homosexuals do not really care if we accept them or not; they just want their way. Gays and lesbians are not interested in the welfare of American communities, they are selfish and only interested in themselves. Number seventeen proves the previous statement, "We [Kirk and Pill] have sketched out here a blueprint for transforming the social values of straight America. At the core of our program is a media campaign to change the way the average citizens view homosexuality."
Do Christians feel that homosexuals are monsters or beasts? No, but their lifestyle is the monstrosity. They have taken what was natural (i.e. in harmony with nature’s laws and purposes, Gen. 2:24-25), and perverted it to satisfy their sinful lust (Rom. 1:24-2. This author has no joy in expressing this to the public. It would be delightful if we did not have to deal with it, but homosexuality exists in our society; thus, the truth needs to be told about the sin of homosexuality, especially for the homosexual’s sake (cf. Ezek 3:17-21).
The deceptive process of taking pure relationships such grandparents and neighboring children, and portraying to us that homosexuality is just as beneficial to us socially as these, should be an insult to us. We think more of the relationships of our grandparents and our neighbor’s children than to allow some one (some persons) to deceive us into thinking that homosexuals should be on their level of friendship and trust. We treasure our relationships with our family and friends, but not with homosexuality. "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter" (Isa. 5:20)!
