Homosexuality, In Your Face

by National Catholic Register Editorial

In Your Face. That’s where homosexuality is headed

August 19, 2003 / It’s uncomfortable, but it’s true: If we don’t face homosexual marriage now, homosexual marriage will be in our faces for years to come.

For the next two weeks, the Register will bring you commentary and opinion pieces explaining why homosexual marriage is wrong. The strong impulse for many will be not to read them. When the Register surveyed its readers two years ago, many identified homosexuality as something they want to see discussed far less in the paper.

They have a point.

Few of us want to think about homosexual marriage and homosexual practices. But the only way to live in a world where you won’t be constantly presented with homosexual marriage is to defeat homosexual marriage now.

So before our commentators go into detail telling you why homosexual marriage is wrong, we need to take some time to answer a very different question: Why should we bother with homosexual marriage at all? Why should we care if homosexuals marry or not?

We need to spell out what the consequences of homosexual marriage will be.

Once the state okays homosexual marriage, it will no longer be an oddity relegated to the private lives of a few. It will be out in the open, in public, on display. Homosexual couples will be treated as married couples not just in insurance policies and court documents, but in public school classrooms, public libraries and in entertainments.

Children will be treated to classroom materials about homosexual couples. The shock-value of “Heather Has Two Mommies” will pale in comparison to the materials that will become mainstream overnight. Homosexual teachers will marry, speak about their “spouses” and bring them to school events.

Your visits to the public library will include Valentine’s Day displays unabashedly targeted to homosexual couples. Homosexual couples will become a norm, not an exception, on television programs.

There will be economic consequences, too. Homosexual couples are notoriously volatile. They don’t stay together long, adding to the risk insurers must take. They also have many health problems, not just because of venereal diseases, but because homosexual sex does serious damage to body tissue. Family health insurance policies that include homosexual couples will become much more expensive, from proctology bills alone.

What else will happen?

Homosexual couples will adopt children. Why wouldn’t they? The pain experienced by children of homosexual couples is well documented. And homosexual couples have a much higher instance of domestic abuse and broken homes.

Homosexual couples could even adopt the children of people you know. Imagine two spouses killed without leaving instructions on the care of their children. There is no reason the state would prefer a married heterosexual couple over a married homosexual one.

As Canada and Ireland have seen, it will become a hate crime to even mention the things we mentioned here.

Once we allow homosexual marriage, we won’t have today’s world with just a few more options for homosexual couples. We’ll have a whole new world, one in which homosexual couples take a privileged place in the very center of our society.

It’s worth quoting Pope John Paul’s prophetic words once again: “Families will be the first victims of the evils that they have done no more than note with indifference” (Familiaris Consortio, No. 44).

And homosexual couples have a much higher instance of domestic abuse and broken homes.

I'm not saying I don't agree with most of this article. I do. But where is the proof of this statement? I have heard this other places, but I would like concrete proof to back this statement up before I believe it. What is the proof that it is a bigger percentage than other homes ie Married heterosexual parents, divorced parents, remarried parents, single moms or dads?

Thanks for posting the article though.

Oh, I know! Read this article from the Clements Family Page too:

THE HOMOSEXUAL LIFESTYLE

It's No White Picket Fence

"THEY EXCHANGED THE TRUTH OF GOD FOR A LIE and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator ..... Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion." Romans 1:25-27

Was the Apostle Paul an "intolerant, hate-mongering, homophobe" when he wrote that letter? Absolutely not! On the contrary, he was merely warning of the consequences of the sin. Homosexuality, in most cases, is a progressive addiction, which in many cases leads to death.

The homosexual lifestyle is an extremely dangerous one. According to numerous studies, many of which have been commissioned by homosexual publications; 20% of homosexuals report of participating in sadomasochism where their partner is hurt, scratched, bruised and/or bloodied. 41% of male homosexuals and 8% of lesbians report "fisting"; where the arm is inserted up the rectum of one's partner. Over 90% of male homosexuals participate in the insertion of the penis into the rectum of their sexual partner's.

This practice carries great risk for both participants. The rectum was not created to withstand this abuse. Fecal matter can inter through the urethra, and sperm breaks through the single layer of the columnar epithelium of the rectum, causing massive immunological disruptions in the blood system, making the person at much greater risk for infection. It's no wonder that homosexuals are 245% more apt to report 2 or more sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) at a time, than heterosexuals.

The consequences of this behavior is magnified when one looks at the number of partners the average homosexual has in his/her lifetime. Most homosexual sex is performed with strangers. 70% admitting to having sex only once with over half of their partners. The average Homosexual has had 300 to 500 partners during a lifetime. 28% have performed sodomy on over 1000 partners. Only 2% have had monogamous relationships, and those are defined as lasting anywhere between 9 and 60 months.

Of these monogamous relationships;

5% drank urine,

7% incorporated fisting,

33% ingested feces,

53% swallowed semen.

Contrary to media propaganda, these practices are not always taking place "behind closed doors", in the privacy of one's own bedroom. According to The Gay Report, a homosexual magazine; the most frequented places to practice homosexual behavior are:

public restrooms;

bus stations,

service stations,

public libraries,

rest stops;

"health clubs" where groups gather to watch others engage in

sodomy or go to private booths for themselves;

"gay bars" and night clubs;

street corners where they "cruise" for others,

"glory holes" (circular holes cut out of partitions between stalls

in public restrooms allowing anonymous oral sodomy with the

person in the next stall);

pornographic bookstores,

peep shows,

movie houses,

public parks where groups gather in the bushes;

beaches and public baths.

In Fact "Bob Damron's Address Book" lists all of the parks and recreation areas in the country that are frequented for anonymous homosexual activity, so new homosexuals to your town can always know where others congregate.

Vicki Liviakas wrote an article for the New York Times 12/11/93, in which she stated that there was a resurgence of activity in the gay bath houses in San Francisco. They lack self discipline. The young gay male population was more reluctant to practice what they call "safe sex". A second wave of AIDS is feared by officials in San Francisco. She wrote, "numb with loss, fatalistic about their own survival, unwilling to face a measure of sexual deprivation (or deprive themselves of sex), and eager for the attention showered on the sick and the dying, are again practicing unprotected anal intercourse. Experts say this behavior is increasing the infection rates." She interviewed a 32 year old airline mechanic recently infected with HIV, he said, "I though if I was HIV positive I'd be so much gayer, people are looking for the red badge of courage and you get that when you convert from being HIV negative to being HIV positive." They love the attention they get when they get sick.

We must not allow the dominate media culture to pass homosexuality off as "just another lifestyle choice", equal to that of the heterosexual. It is not!. It is dangerous behavior which destroys the one practicing it, as well as the society that condones it.

However, in our fight against the homosexual agenda, it is important to always offer the two-handed approach; the hand of restraint that says your lifestyle is a dangerous one for yourself and society, and the hand of love and hope. Homosexuals need to know of God's love and the transforming power of Jesus Christ.

"But such were some of you. But you were washed, sanctified, justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Power of the Spirit of God." 1 Cor 6:11

The Overhauling Of Straight America

The main vehicle to "Overhaul straight America" is through local, state and federal statues granting homosexuals special minority rights. The ramifications would be far reaching - infringing upon our civil rights:

Ann Hacklander and Maureen Rowe had advertised for a third roommate at the University of Wisconsin @ Madison. They turned down an applicant because she was a lesbian and because of their "Homosexual Rights Ordinance", the girls were fined $1,000 each, forced to undergo 2 months of an anti-discrimination course taught by lesbians, and monitored for the next year to insure against future discrimination.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Businesses will be required to have homosexual sensitivity training to prevent homophobia in the workplace.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Active affirmative action will be required. A few recent examples:

The Boston Police Department has recently joined the ranks of New York City, San Francisco, and Los Angeles that actively recruit homosexuals for their police force so they would "reflect the population they serve."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Teaching the viability of homosexuality in schools through curriculum such as the Rainbow Curriculum, such as Project 10 and Project 21 are doing:

The mother of a lesbian spoke to a group of sociology students at Bismark High, North Dakota on 11/17/93. She spoke on the "intolerance of homosexuality" and handed out several pages of sexual definitions and a questionnaire which asked, "How can you become a whole person if you limit yourself to compulsive, exclusive heterosexuality and fail to develop your natural, healthy, homosexual potentials?"

Homosexual schoolbooks are being implemented in various school systems around the country by PROJECT 21, a United Way funded gay/lesbian group dedicated to infiltrating every school system by the 21st Century (hence Project 21): Gloria goes to Gay Pride (Parade), Heather Has Two Mommies, Daddy's Roommate, Annie On My Mind and All-American Boys.

A 90-minute pornographic assembly entitled, "HOT, SEXY, AND SAFER?" in which a lesbian comedian performs sexually explicit monologues and sexually suggestive skits with the high school audience. She uses foul four letter words throughout the performance and advocates; oral sex, masturbation, mutual masturbation, condom use during promiscuous premarital sex and homosexual sex.

The LESBIAN AVENGERS handed out Valentine Cards to elementary school children in West Springfield Mass @ Kowling Elementary School this year that said, "Ask About Lesbian Love. Girls who love girls, and women who love women are OK. Happy Valentines Day". It included an 800 # for the National Gay & Lesbian Hot Line that was an advertisement for "America's wildest, hottest phone sex service, hot uncensored gay phone sex". They were able to get in to the school for 15 minutes with a reporter, were kicked off of the grounds and charged with trespassing only.

Gay Pride month in public schools.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Forcing Boy Scouts to have homosexual scoutmasters. Recent example:

Big Brothers of Minneapolis interviewed and applicant and discovered that his resume' revealed that he had homosexual affiliations. When asked if he was a homosexual the applicant said, "yes". That didn't daunt the interviewer, he merely stated that he had to reveal the information to the mother, as the final decision was up to her. Being a homosexual BIG BROTHER was ok with the organization, it was up to the mother. That didn't sit well with the homosexual. Under their local gay rights law, the homosexual sued Big Brothers, alleging that he had been discriminated against. The Big Brothers argued that they made no comments, negative or positive, about him. Its representative simply revealed all the facts, just as he would with other protected classes in the human rights law - race, color, age, religion,s ex, marital status, and the life. The decision was up to the mother. Despite the fair-sounding rationale of BB, they were fined thousands of dollars, forced to admit homosexuals without disclosure to the mothers, and active solicitation (affirmative action) of homosexuals by Big Brothers through homosexual media outlets (magazines, etc.)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Requiring churches to have homosexual volunteers and staff. Churches are coming under tremendous attack of late. The following are few examples:

More than a dozen homosexuals dressed in black sat quietly in the pews at Village Seven Presbyterian Church on 11/7/93 until the pastor asked the congregation to open their Bibles. They all stood up, removed their coats began screaming at the pastor and pelted the 1000 member congregation with condoms.

St. Patrick's Cathedral, NYC, Homosexual activists stormed the building and began throwing condoms on the unsuspecting parishioners. They destroyed church property, blocked the doors and urinated on the pews.

Angry homosexuals attempted to break in to a church service @ the Hamilton Square Baptist Church in San Francisco in September. They destroyed property outside the church, pounded relentlessly on the doors, cursed at the children inside and screamed at the parents what they wanted to do to the children, spit in the faces of those attempting to get inside the church, and before it was all over, tore down the Christian Flag waving over the church and replaced it with the familiar "Rainbow" Homosexual flag. The police refused to make arrests, or even come to the scene of the crime. The congregation was left to fend for themselves and fear for their lives. If you're law enforcement...it's politically incorrect to arrest homosexuals in San Francisco.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Eliminate sodomy laws in 23 states and all state and local ordinances.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adoption, foster care and custody of children. Recent example:

An openly gay man in Van Nuys, California was awarded custody of a 5-year old girl to whom he was not related (he was a former babysitter), over the protests of the girl's mother. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Martha Goldin ruled that the "gay" Kevin Thomas would provide a better home for the child - whom he had known all of her life - than her mother.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Same sex marriages, lowering the age of consent, special homosexual multicultural curriculum

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The press accuses us of claiming that legitimizing homosexuality will mean society must accept openly obscene behavior and pedophilia".. They say that pedophilia and obscene behavior are "unacceptable" in the homosexual and heterosexual communities, and would never become "acceptable". The evidence proves otherwise:

Prior to a 1970 American Psychiatric Association convention in San Francisco, homosexuality was listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Psychiatric Disorders as a `mental illness'. The APA conventions had been disrupted by angry homosexuals for years prior to 1970, however that year's location afforded them the ability to make the necessary changes to the `status' of their lifestyle. Through harassment, intimidation, and violence, they succeeded in "gagging" any opposition from the APA members. By 1972 they had accomplished their goal and were no longer labeled as a "mental illness". From that point on, the top "sex researchers" of America began the RE-educating of America with the "sexual orientation" arguments. Today, children are being taught in government controlled schools that homosexuality is "just an alternative lifestyle".

Twenty years from 1972 and the same arguments are beginning to roll in concerning pedophilia. The same sex researchers (Dr. John Money/Johns Hopkins University, Dr. John DeCecco/Editor, Journal on Homosexuality - Dr. Mary Calderon/SIECUS) are saying that pedophilia is not necessarily damaging, so long as force is not used. PAIDIKA, Journal of Pedophilia, 4/91 stated, "If I were to see the case of a boy aged 10 or 11 who's intensely, erotically attracted toward a man in his 20s or 30s, if the relationship is totally mutual, and the bonding is genuinely totally mutual, then I would not call it pathological in any way." 10 of the 24 members of PAIDIKA's editorial board are also on the board of JOURNAL OF HOMOSEXUALITY. Bill Andriette, Editor of the NAMBLA Bulletin (North American Man-Boy Love Association) said, "If you look at the variation of sexuality of one individual and one culture, between different cultures, you see that the range of forms of sexual expression is just too varied to simply divvy up the map by saying "gay & straight".

We Shall Sodomize Your Sons

We shall sodomize your sons,

emblems of your feeble masculinity,

of your shallow dreams and vulgar lives.

We shall seduce him in your schools,

in your dormitories, in your gymnasiums,

in your locker rooms, sports arenas,

seminiaries, truck stops, male clubs,

and in your Houses of Congress.

Wherever men are with men together,

your sons shall become our minions

and do our bidding.

They will be re-cast in OUR image.

They will come to crave and adore us.

All laws banning homosexuality will be revoked.

If you dare cry "flower", "fairy", or "qwerty" at us,

we will stab you in your cowardly hearts.

All churches who condemn us will be closed.

Our only gods are handsome young men.

We shall be victorious because we are

fueled with the ferocious

bitterness of the oppressed.

We too, are capable of firing guns

and manning the barricades

of ultimate revolution.

Michael Swift, Gay Community News, 2/15/87

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Under the guise of civil rights, homosexual lobbyists are pressuring Congress to grant "sexual orientation" minority status. Then, behaving as a homosexual, lesbian, bisexual or transgender (adopting dress, behavior, or surgical alteration transformations) will be considered a special minority as are Hispanics, Blacks, Women, etc. Such action forces special protection based on one's sexual lifestyle.

Disney World is now supporting the homosexual lifestyle. They helped underwrite the production cost of a fundraiser for the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force. They helped raise $180,000 for the homosexual organization. They also amended their personnel policy to grant special rights to homosexual employees and their lovers, as well as permitting them to participate in an annual "Gay Pride Day" attended by homosexuals from across America, on the same day elementary schools from around the state bus the children to Disney (the first official weekend of the summer), as well as other unsuspecting patrons visit the park. The homosexual organizations have been asked numerous times to reschedule the annual event, but they refuse.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THERE ARE THREE MYTHS SURROUNDING HOMOSEXUALITY:

10% of population is homosexual. This is based on a 1948 Kinsey Report. Prisoners and sex offenders were used in his survey. They use the 10% figure to advance their agenda. The Alan Guttmacher Institute and the Morton-Hunt Study (commissioned for Playboy) both revealed it is actually 1% to 2%

"We used that figure when most gay people were entirely hidden to try to create an impression of our numerousness." Tom Stoddard of the (homosexual) LAMBDA Legal Defense Fund told Newsweek in Feb.93.

They're born that way. Increasingly, studies from universities such as John Hopkins School of Medicine, Albert Einstein School of Medicine and Masters and Johnson point to environmental factors as major causes. Specifically a child's perception of family dynamics, a traumatized condition; rape, abuse, and other traumatic events may cause a gender identity conflict at a very young age, thus resulting in a belief that they were "born that way".

Homosexuals do not enjoy rights like other citizens and therefore need minority status and special civil rights. As Americans, homosexuals are entitled to equal rights, not special rights. Their behavior-based lifestyle does not qualify for privileged minority status under U.S. law.

All individuals; good, bad, homosexual or heterosexual are protected under the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. As a class, the courts have repeatedly denied homosexuals their claim to "insular and discreet" minority status, quotas and affirmative action. Homosexuality is a behavior, not a race. Homosexuality is defined by the act of sodomy. This behavior is not constitutionally protected as per the Supreme Court ruling in Bowers vs. Hardwick.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IN THEIR BATTLE TO LEGITIMIZE HOMOSEXUALITY THEY MUST:

"Portray gays as victims, not as aggressive challengers. In any campaign to win over the public, gays must be cast as victims in need of protection so that straights will be inclined by reflex action to assume the role of protector. Our campaign should not demand direct support for homosexual practices, but take anti-discrimination as its theme."

After the Ball: How America Will Conquer Its Fear & Hatred of Gays In The 90s Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And tremendous mass media sympathy has helped homosexuals portray their debate in just this "gay as victim" mentality.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Historically the Supreme Court grants minority status to a class based upon satisfying three elements.

History of discrimination, evidenced by the lack of ability to obtain economic mean income, adequate education and deprived of cultural opportunities:

College -- 60% (gays), 18% (national average), less than 5% (black Americans)

Graduate

Managerial/ -- 49% (gays), 16% (national average), less than 5% (blacks)

Professional

Positions

Overseas -- 66% (gays), 14% (national average), less than 5% (blacks)

Vacations

Household -- $55,430 (gays), $32,286 (national average), $12,166 (blacks)

Income

The class must exhibit obvious, immutable, unchangable or distinguishing characteristics that define them as an insular and discrete group. There has never been confirmed evidence of the existence of a "homosexual gene". According to a study by the University of Minnesota Hospital and Clinics on 34,706 students in 1992, 25.9% of children are unsure of their sexual orientation at age 12, but this figure declines to 5% by age 17. The study also found that sexual orientation is a fluid condition: of the small percentage who have a homosexual orientation, 75% do not continue throughout their lifetime in homosexual relationships.

The class must show they are politically powerless. In the 1992 election, homosexual activists donated $3.4 million to President Clinton's campaign and supplied many other campaigns with volunteers and contributions, making them one of the most financially powerful political forces today.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We are not attempting to deny anyone's civil rights. Every American enjoys civil rights, however, "special" rights should not be afforded any individual based solely on his or her sexual preferences. The reason homosexuals (as well as the press) oppose our various state amendment petitions is because they want to use local "gay rights ordinances" to legitimize their lifestyle and punish anyone who opposes it based on religious convictions and concern for the health of the nation.

How can you become a whole person if you limit yourself to compulsive, exclusive heterosexuality and fail to develop your natural, healthy, homosexual potentials?"

What?!!!!! If my kid came home with something like this, I would be furious! Natural?! Healthy?! Homosexual potentials?! That's it. I have strengthened my resolve to send my kids (when I have them) to private schools!!!

stated, "If I were to see the case of a boy aged 10 or 11 who's intensely, erotically attracted toward a man in his 20s or 30s, if the relationship is totally mutual, and the bonding is genuinely totally mutual, then I would not call it pathological in any way."

That's just sick.

Talk about persacution! Sheesh! That's the equivelant of 2 girls turning down a guy who wanted to room up with them! I mean, the reason they are "discriminating" is because they don't want to feel uncomfortable changing in front of a lesbian. Which calls to mind the bathroom seen.

How do you deal with a gay guy standing in the stall next to ya. I mean - yeah he's a human. But wouldn't it be the same as a girl standing next to me. you have to wonder what he's thinkin'. I'd feel uncomfortable. But then again, who cares how I feel right? I mean, what really counts is how the homosexual feels...

Urrr... I'll stop.
