GAY TRUTH

On July 8, my publisher informed me that my book  Desires in Conflict ,  along with a number of other books on overcoming homosexuality by different authors, had been pulled off the Amazon.com catalog. A gay activist had worked for months to convince Amazon to take this action and, bolstered by 80,000 signatures on a petition, his wish had been granted. (See  here .) Before venting, I’ll admit to some admiration for any guy who gets 80,000 people to support a cause, then persuades a corporate giant like Amazon to seal the deal. Regardless, the purge is on, and only the most naïve will expect it to stop with us. Folks like me who profess that homosexuality need not be a life sentence will be among the first to feel the ax of cultural banishment, that Yellow Star imposed before the horror really kicks off. Look for more of our books to be burned and for more of us to be muzzled. But don’t kid yourself into thinking the mob will stop there. Heck, we’re just the appetizer.
