(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) The  Obama administration has announced last week that it will award federal benefits to several homosexuals who were “married” - although the states in which they lived did not recognize the marriages at the time. Lambda Legal , which was arguing in federal court for Social Security spousal benefits for two homosexuals who had “married” illegally before the court ruling in June and since had both been widowed, announced last Thursday. Lambda Legal`s Susan Sommer said the change “could right a wrong for hundreds of same-sex spouses” married in the 11 states where same-sex marriage was illegal before June. “You couldn’t call this a capitulation,” said Peter LaBarbera , head of the   Americans for Truth About Homosexuality . “This is the Obama

Study finds homosexuals less healthy, happy than heterosexuals

SYDNEY, Australia, July 20, 2015 ( – A major study funded by the Australian government has found that homosexuals are less personally fulfilled, have more health problems, and are not as happy in their relationships as "straight" people. In fact, the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia ( HILDA ) surveys reveal a marked difference in people's experiences based on their sexual identity . Participants are followed over time, and in-depth interviews are conducted annually with all adult members of each household.  For the first time in the study's 12-year history, respondents' sexual identity was researched as it relates to life satisfaction . The results were striking.  Gay, lesbian, and bisexual people fare far worse than heterosexual people on literally all well-being and social support measures studied, and such homosexuals consistently reported significantly lower "life satisfaction."

Why are Christians homophobic?

English: No Homophobia logo (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Generally speaking, Christians are not homophobic. They're not afraid of homosexuals (though some might be).  It is just that true Christians consider homosexuality a  sin . Think about it this way--Christians would consider theft a sin but are not "cleptophobic." Just because we believe something is wrong, doesn't mean we are phobic anymore than someone saying Christianity is wrong makes them christophobic . You see, Christians are not into "correct-speech" and "correct-thought" advocated by the dystopian intelligensia.  Just because lots of people think homosexuality is right, doesn't make it right.  Moral truth isn't determined by the majority opinion or what year it is.  Saying "Most believe it is okay, therefore, it is okay," or "But this is the 21st century!  Homosexuality is just another lifestyle" doesn't mean it is okay. Nevertheless, to more

Religious Freedom and the homosexual agenda

Image
Barely five days after  The New York Times  ran a major news article on the firing of Atlanta ’s fire chief for his views on homosexuality, a major  Times  opinion writer declared that religious liberty is a fine thing, so long as it is restricted to “pews, homes, and hearts” — far from public consequence. The firing of Kelvin Cochran as chief of Atlanta’s Fire Rescue Department came after the city’s mayor, Kasim Reed , determined that the chief could not effectively manage the department after he had written a book in which he cited Scripture in defining homosexuality as a sin. The most crucial portion of the  Times  story includes the mayor’s rationale: “At a news conference, Mr. Reed said that Mr. Cochran’s ‘personal religious beliefs are not the issue.’ But Atlanta’s nondiscrimination policy, the mayor added, is ‘nonnegotiable.’ ‘Despite my respect for Chief Cochran’s service, I believe his actions and decision-making undermine his ability to effectively manage a large,

BEYOND SAME-SEX MARRIAGE A NEW STRATEGIC VISION FOR ALL OUR FAMILIES & RELATIONSHIPS July 26, 2006 We, the undersigned – lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) and allied activists, scholars, educators, writers, artists, lawyers, journalists, and community organizers – seek to offer friends and colleagues everywhere a new vision for securing governmental and private institutional recognition of diverse kinds of partnerships, households, kinship relationships and families. In so doing, we hope to move beyond the narrow confines of marriage politics as they exist in the United States today. We seek access to a flexible set of economic benefits and options regardless of sexual orientation, race, gender/gender identity, class, or citizenship status. We reflect and honor the diverse ways in which people find and practice love, form relationships, create communities and networks of caring and support, establish households, bring families into being, and build innovative stru

Is Same Sex parenting child abuse?

Gay Couple with child (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Single-parenting and divorce have always been understood as a breakdown of the married mom and dad ideal, but the demand to view same-sex parenting as “normal” imposes a silence on children about the wound caused by the loss of one parent or the other. Emotional abuse can be as bad as physical abuse. Any young person who’s heard the words, “I wish you were never born,” understands that adults can inflict tremendous damage on their dependents without leaving the slightest bruise. One of the worst parts of abuse is society’s refusal to see the injustice. Emotional abuse is particularly difficult because it is invisible and therefore ripe for denial. It is worse still to feel “abandoned” by a community that views the cruelty inside a child’s home and does nothing. When told by everyone in the vicinity that what’s happening is normal and no cause to be aggrieved (even worse, a reason to be grateful), the natural instinct of the child i
