GAY TRUTH

I get all kinds of interesting calls on the phone. I never really know who it might be. Sometimes a politician or a school trustee. Sometimes a bishop. Sometimes a crank.  I’m glad I didn’t pick up phone calls on Saturday. Instead, I let them go to voicemail. But when I checked one message later that evening, I couldn’t believe what someone — who identified himself as a “moral human being” — went out of his way to tell me.  “Hello Pete, I just read your article written on January 18. And I have to say you are an absolutely disgusting human being,” the caller said.  My mind immediately went racing. What article had I written on that date that so offended this fellow? I continued listening to the message. “I mean seriously, don’t you understand that some people are naturally transgendered, that accepting them does not in any way threaten anybody else’s way of life. And how can you say that the LGBT movement is trying to destroy…” The caller went on to tell me that his fa

March 5, 2015 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) -- Prospective Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson is backtracking after he faced strong criticism for saying homosexuality is “absolutely” a choice, and claiming this is proved by the fact that many inmates come out of prison as homosexuals . But his apology is earning him a new set of critics because, though he affirmed his belief in traditional marriage , he also trumpeted his support for homosexual civil unions and defended the right of states to create same-sex “marriage.” "I do not pretend to know how every individual came to their sexual orientation ,” Carson wrote Wednesday in the apology on his Facebook page . "I regret that my words to express that concept were hurtful and divisive. For that I apologize unreservedly to all that were offended." “Up until this point there have been no definitive studies that people are born into a specific sexuality,” Carson wrote. “We do know, however, that we are always born

Česky: (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Matthew Vines is a young homosexual who, on March 8, 2012, spoke at College Hill United Methodist Church in Kansas in defense of biblical support for homosexuality.  He taught from scripture in a church.  His Youtube video of the event has, as of June 2012, received over 500,000 views.  On his website at http://matthewvines.tumblr.com is a complete transcript of that speech (9,876 words or about 21, 8.5" x 11" pages).  I emailed Mr. Vines asking for permission to reprint it and interject comments into it for an article here on CARM .  As far as I know, I received no reply.  Therefore, I've written articles in response to his arguments where I have quoted him and addressed his basic assertions. Please understand I have no ill will towards Mr. Vines.  I am sure he's a nice guy.  I am not homophobic--nor a bigot.  I just disagree with hom

English: Gender symbols, sexual orientation: heterosexuality, homosexuality, bisexuality. Česky: (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) People talk about  homosexuality  in terms of sexual orientation -- you know, the "way they are oriented regarding sex."  That got me thinking.  What do you do with those who have a different "truth orientation"? -- you know, the "way they are oriented regarding truth."  I think that the homosexual proponents should be consistent and advocate civil rights to those who have a different truth orientation; that is, they should support the legal protection of liars. Is this ridiculous?  If so, why?  Both sexual orientation and truth orientation are "natural" to the person, aren't they?  Both sexual orientation and truth orientation are behaviors , right?  Shouldn't both groups of people be free to love whom they want and lie to whom they want?  Shouldn't both be free to express their natural born tendenc

English: Protesters for gay marriage at the 2009 Marcha Gay in Mexico City (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) A hate crime is defined as . . . "A hate crime is usually defined by state law as one that involves threats, harassment, or physical harm and is motivated by prejudice against someone's race, color, religion, national origin, ethnicity, sexual orientation or physical or mental disability." 1 I'm amazed at how successful the homosexual community has been to get "hate crime" added in legalese to include their sexual behavior within it.  This way, they can get special rights and protection for their lifestyle.  Remember, homosexuality is a behavior and a lifestyle; race, color, religion, national origin, and ethnicity are not.  So, by having what they call "sexual orientation" included in the definition of hate crime, this means that the exact same crime against a homosexual is met with a stiffer penalty than against anyone else.  How is

After doing the panel discussion on al-Jazeera last night, and coming across countless more articles about same-sex parenting today, I'm a little tired of being diplomatic. Maybe there are moments when a bit of bluntness is appropriate. In a best case scenario, there is a widow who comes out of the closet after her husband dies, and then gets help from a lesbian lover while raising her children. She makes sure not to trample on their father's memory, and doesn't force them to call her new lover "Mom." In that one rare, specific, unintentional case, yes, same-sex parenting is okay. Every other scenario involving a same-sex couple with exclusive custody of small children is adult misconduct at best or a crime against humanity at worst. If it happened because of divorce, then the gay parent and a former heterosexual lover failed to resolve their differences and didn't stay together for the children. The gay parent, who's now a single parent because the op

Are people ever born with conditions that are not normal and sometimes harmful? Is there any difference between sexual desires (“orientation”) and sexual behavior? Should people act on every desire they have? Homosexuals are born as males or females, so why should they follow their desires but not the design of their bodies?  Some homosexuals insist that they have had homosexual desires as long as they can remember. Somehow this is supposed to prove that these desires are the result of nature not nurture. But this argument ultimately fails to justify homosexual behavior or any behavior for that matter.  First, notice that “born-that-way” is an argument from nature or design: “Since I was designed with these desires, I ought to act on them.” The people who say this normally presume that the Designer is God . 63   But if you insist that God designed your desires, then you cannot deny He designed your body as well.  This raises the question to homosexuals who make this argument:  Why ar
