Where Does Homosexuality Come From?

Image
I was 35 years old, called myself a lesbian, and worked as an activist and English professor in New York when I first encountered these words from Romans 1: God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting. (Romans 1:24–28) Huh, I muttered. It seems like a dangerous hate speech or some other devastation designed to ruin my life. God’s word brought me to a line in the sand and a hole in my heart.

Christian couple challenge fostering ban over biblical views

Image
A Christian couple in Australia has launched legal action after they were banned from becoming foster carers due to their biblical views on LGBT issues. Byron and Keira Hordyk said they would love a child who identifies as LGBT as their own but would help them to overcome their sin. Despite an initially favorable report, their application was later refused on the grounds that their views would not ensure ‘a safe living environment’. Discrimination The Hordyks filed a discrimination case, saying that Wanslea Family Services would only appoint foster carers who agree with its LGBT ideology. The couple said their views are part of their Christian faith, which the organization did not attempt to reasonably accommodate. The Equality Opportunity Commission refused to hear their case, and it has now been referred to the State Administrative Tribunal. Forced out In the UK in 2003, two Christian social workers were forced out of their jobs for refusing to place children with

Switzerland votes to criminalize ‘homophobia’

Image
The Swiss have voted by a large majority to make “homophobia” a criminal offense.  On Sunday, 63.1 percent of the voters who turned out for several popular initiative referendums agreed that “discrimination,” “hate speech” and other forms of public “insults” aimed at homosexuals because of their “sexual orientation” will be punishable by a fine and up to three years’ imprisonment. During the run-up to Sunday’s vote, the Catholic hierarchy in Switzerland was mostly conspicuous by its absence from the debate.  With the new legislation, the aggravating circumstance of a victim's homosexuality will be added to the original 1994 anti-discrimination and hate speech law in Switzerland's penal code that already criminalized discrimination on the basis of race or religion. How it will be applied in practice will be determined by jurisprudence. To date, sanctions for discrimination and hate speech under the original law are usually limited to fines, only rarely moving up the scale

Homosexual President

Image
A Christian website published a column saying that 2020 presidential contender Pete Buttigieg is “deserving of death.” What does that mean?    This biblical statement is based on Romans 1 where Paul lists a range of sins of which one is homosexuality as a serious sin -deserving judgment (as do all sin)  WHICH BIBLE VERSE IS BEING REFERRED TO HERE? Romans 1: 26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.   28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full

Gay Activism: The Death Rattle of a Nation

Image
In the name of progressivism, we now have a male presidential candidate who has a husband, whom he publicly introduces and even kisses without shame, while millions of Americans applaud and approve .  And perhaps worse yet is that the shock effect has been so reduced that the rest of us are numb and desensitized to this most shameful and abominable behavior. And that's all it is: behavior. Have you seen this old quote from Gore Vidal? : "Actually, there is no such thing as a homosexual person, any more than there is such a thing as a heterosexual person. The words are adjectives describing sexual acts, not people." (From Gore Vidal:  Sexually Speaking ). The fact is that the word "homosexual" wasn't invented until 1892, when a German book on sexual perversions was translated into English ( Psychopathia Sexualis  was the German book). God created male and female with the sexual union between the two being first for procreation; anything outside that

Buttigieg’s brother-in-law assails Dem for ‘dishonesty,’ acting ‘clearly against Scripture’

Pete Buttigieg (right) with his 'husband' Chasten The brother-in-law of Democrat presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg isn’t pulling any punches in response to the former South Bend, Indiana mayor’s recent comments questioning the religiosity of Americans who support President Donald Trump, calling Buttigieg’s remarks the “height of intellectual dishonesty.” Earlier this week, Buttigieg said at a presidential town hall event that he  “cannot find any compatibility between the way this president conducts himself and anything I find in Scripture.” The candidate has made his allegedly-superior religiosity a recurring theme in his campaign, despite his well-known deviations from Christian teaching, including his “marriage” to another man and his support for effectively-unlimited legal abortion.  Michigan pastor Rhyan Glezman, the brother of Buttigieg’s “husband” Chasten,  appeared  on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show Wednesday evening to respond. "Yeah, in the hei

Ex-trans pleads with Canadian politicians not to ban therapy that ‘saved my life’

'I fear if this bill is passed, it will prevent LGBTQ people who are struggling with mental health issues from getting much-needed help'  A Canadian man who underwent hormone injections and surgery to live as a woman for 18 years is pleading with the country’s politicians to not proceed in banning counseling that he says saved his life by helping him to live once again according to his biological sex as a male. “I fear if this bill is passed, it will prevent LGBTQ people who are struggling with mental health issues from getting much-needed help,” said Robert John Wenman about Bill S-202, which would ban therapy to help LGBT people overcome unwanted sexual conditions. The bill is now before the Senate.  Wenman outlined in a video how he lived as a woman from 1994 to 2012 after coming to believe that “sex reassignment surgery” would be the “fix-all solution” to what he described as “lifelong deep-rooted emotional problems and inferiority complexes.” He antici

First animated Disney movie with openly homosexual character to debut

Image
Onward, Disney’s first animated movie with an openly homosexual character, is set to hit theaters on Friday, March 6. Many are calling on parents to boycott the film. The movie is about two brothers, voiced by Tom Holland and Chris Pratt, who set out on a mission to magically resurrect their father for a day. One of the movie’s minor characters is Officer Specter, a purple cyclops police officer. In addition to being one-eyed and purple, Officer Specter, who is voiced by Lena Waithe, is also an open lesbian, reports Slate. In one scene where Officer Specter pulls over a motorist who claims to have been distracted by his girlfriend’s kids, Waithe’s character replies by saying: “My girlfriend's daughter got me pulling my hair out.” Though the moment apparently passes without comment, and without being “showcased” as “special,” pro-family advocates and Christians are calling for parents to boycott the film. Disney is also the parent company of Marvel Studios, which is in

Pete Buttigieg exploitation 9-year-old who wants to ‘come out’ as gay

Image
At a campaign rally Saturday, openly gay presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg invited onto the stage a 9-year-old boy in order to publicly offer him advice on “coming out” as gay. Zachary Ro had submitted a question to the candidate: “Thank you for being so brave.  Would you help me tell the world that I’m gay too?”  As Zachary mounted the stage, the crowd loudly chanted, “Love is love,” a favorite mantra employed by the promoters of same-sex “marriage” leading up to the Supreme Court’s Obergefell decision instituting genderless, non-conjugal marriage across all 50 U.S. states.    Once the boy made it to the platform, Buttigieg did all the talking.     In the end, the candidate tried to make political hay out of the moment: “When I was trying to figure out who I was, I was afraid that who I was might mean that I could never make a difference. And what wound up happening instead, (being gay) a huge part of the difference I get to make.” “Even if I can’t promise it wil
