“For the second time in a matter of months, we see a senior Republican leader in the Senate disparaging an entire group of Americans,” said Human Rights Campaign spokesman David Smith.
“While we welcome his spokeswoman’s clarification that he has no problem with gay people, it’s analogous to saying, ‘I have no problem with Jewish people or black people, I just don’t think they should be equal under the law.’”
Since the early 1990s, gay activists have been conducting a massive campaign using their allies in the media and in the educational establishment to convince the world that negative attitudes toward homosexuals are the equivalent of racism. They claim to be fighting “hate” which leads to violence, but the real goal is to create a situation in which everyone who does not accept that homosexuality is in every way the equal of heterosexuality is labeled as a bigot whose attitudes are the equivalent of racism.
Those who don’t accept the gay agenda are labeled homophobic or heterosexist and guilty of “hate.” So-called diversity education is aimed at making people believe that negative attitudes about race are the same as negative attitudes about same-sex attraction.
The goal is to create a situation under which all those who believe that same-sex sexual acts are always morally wrong and can never be considered as the equivalent of the union between husband and wife in marriage, and all those who are convinced based on massive evidence that same-sex attraction is a preventable and treatable disorder, will be treated in the same way as racists.
In our society, racists are second-class citizens who can be pilloried in the media, run out of office, fired, sued, or convicted of hate crimes. Gay activists want this treatment extended to every person of faith who is not willing to surrender to their agenda. The perfect example of this is the attack on Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA).
In order to strengthen the link in the public’s mind between racism and heterosexism, gay activists continue to claim — contrary to all evidence — that homosexuality is a hereditary, unchangeable characteristic.
The campaign for various gay rights, for hate crime legislation and all the other activities of gay rights activists are not about righting injustice, but about achieving equality — which in their minds means never having to be told they are doing something wrong. The ferociousness with which gay rights activists attack their opponents causes many to retreat in fear. Gay anger is not, however, a healthy reaction to injustice, but an unhealthy defense against the truth. Deep inside themselves they know that something is wrong. Persons with same-sex attraction desperately want to believe that if everyone would accept their homosexuality; their self-doubt and difficulties would disappear.
We must keep speaking the truth with love: Same-sex sexual acts are always wrong; same-sex attraction is a preventable and treatable developmental disorder.
How have the gay rights activists achieved so much in such a short time?
By lying.
• Gay rights activist lied when they said that 10% of the population was “gay.” They now admit that less than 2.8% of males and 1.4% of females are “gay.” And it is probably significantly less than that.
• Gay rights activists lie about what the Bible says about sex between persons of the same sex.
• Gay rights activists quote John Boswell, who fabricated a story about how the Catholic Church supposedly sanctioned gay marriages in the middle Ages.
• Gay rights activists lie when they claim to have found a genetic cause for same-sex attraction.
• Gay rights activists lie when they say change was impossible.
• Gay rights activists lie when they say homosexuals are as psychologically healthy as heterosexuals.
• Gay rights activists lie about the number of gay teens that commit suicide. The study they quote is a fraud.
• Gay rights activists lie when they say children with homosexual parents are no different than children raised by married male/female couples.
• Gay rights activists lie when they say persons with same-sex attraction are no more likely to engage in sexual abuse than heterosexuals.
• Gay rights activists lie when they claim that condom education has reduced the rate of new HIV infections among men who have sex with men. This lie has had devastating effects because a failed condom education program was sold to Africa as the scientifically proven way to stop the epidemic. The gay rights activists prevented the implementation of tested public health measures in Africa and millions have become infected.
The media never researched the claims made by gay rights activists. If they had, they would have discovered that the claims were not backed up by scientific research. On the other hand, the media always challenge well documented statements which contradict the gay rights activists’ claims. Because the media passes on the gay rights activists’ claims unchallenged, the public believes the lies and believes that science supports the lies.
At least some of the activists must know that the claims are untrue, but many men and women suffering from same-sex attraction are as deceived as the general public.
What is needed is a new strategy, one that focuses on the lies and on the media complicity. Those defending faith and science must point out that it is unprofessional for reporters and interviewers not to research claims made by special interest groups. By not doing so, the media has become a co-conspirator in a public relations strategy designed to deceive the public.
It is impossible to have a public debate on such an important issue when one side is allowed to lie with impunity, while well documented statements by the other are greeted with derision.
The public has the right to know the truth. Ordinary citizens have a right to know that same-sex attraction is a preventable and treatable developmental disorder which creates problems for those who suffer from it. Until that happens, gay rights activists will continue to win public policy battles.
The public is also confused about the right to free speech. Individuals have the right to their opinions, but opinions themseves have no rights. People do not have a right to feel good about themselves when they are lying and this is essentially the right claimed by the gay rights activists.
Gay rights activists have to be discredited. Since almost everything they say is contrary to the facts, nothing they say should ever be taken at face value.
