Fearing Supreme Court, gay NYC councilman moves to repeal conversion therapy ban

Image
City Council speaker Corey Johnson of New York City introduced a bill on Thursday to repeal a citywide ban on so-called gay conversion therapy, in place since 2017, out of fear of losing a Supreme Court challenge. The repeal came about after the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), a nonprofit law firm that has defended people of faith in several landmark cases, filed a lawsuit that challenged the constitutionality of the ban. According to the New York Daily News, LGBT advocates fear that the ADF could win the case at the Supreme Court, which has become more conservative under President Donald Trump. The paper said campaigners fear that an eventual decision by the court could have a negative impact on such laws elsewhere in the country. According to the ADF, it filed a federal lawsuit in January on behalf of Dr. Dovid Schwartz, a licensed psychotherapist and member of the Chabad Lubavitch Jewish community. The ADF challenged the city ordinance that prohibits any person to provide

Gay writer pens blistering commentary on the ‘shame’ and ‘horror’ of ‘pride celebrations’

In a searing commentary on what “Pride celebrations” have come to be, a gay author recently asserted there’s “nothing to be proud of.” As New York City prepares to host “World Pride,” political commentator and cultural critic Chadwick Moore advised readers of The Spectator USA to think of the event as  “the Olympics for meth, alcoholism, public fornication, corporate pandering, and hairy asses shoved in the faces of children.  Today we’re left with sexless 3D printout Pete Buttigieg, drag-queen story time in elementary schools, chemically castrated ‘transgender children,’ and an entire generation of privileged little brats addicted to fantasy oppression porn, boycotting chicken sandwiches, and hauling elderly bakers into the Supreme Court,” wrote Moore. " Time to put it away, guys. That’s nothing to be proud of,” he added. Moore possesses the proper bona fides to issue insight and criticism: He is a gay man and former editor-at-large for OUT Magazine. In recent years, he

The confusion and casualties of the Gay Civil War in the Catholic Church

In the 1990s, I attended a gay wedding ceremony at a Catholic Church in San Francisco – performed by a Catholic priest . Friends and acquaintances had similar marriage "blessings" in San Francisco. As of a few years ago, when I spoke with another priest involved in these ceremonies, this practice continued. When I left the Castro in 1999, I thought my experiences with facilitating and lecherous priests were endemic to a relatively small section of the world ranging from the Castro to USF . Ten years later, when I started writing about the topic, I heard stories from Catholics (primarily mothers with "gay" sons) who lived in every part of the U.S. They told a similar tragic tale – how a concerned parent sent a confused kid to an officially sanctioned LGBT ministry in his diocese, and the boy later emerged as a gay rights advocate. They also usually picked up a boyfriend at these ministries. When I began my outreach in San Francisco to the LGBT community,

Liberal columnist: New Yorkers should boycott Chick-fil-A because it’s ‘creepy’ and Christian

Image
In a piece that quickly went viral on social media for its blatant disdain of anything remotely Christian , a New Yorker columnist called on Manhattan residents to resist Chick-fil-A ’s “creepy infiltration” of the city. Dan Piepenbring’s Friday article is a reaction to the popular Christian restaurant chain opening a fourth location in the area last month, with plans to open up to a dozen more. He describes New Yorkers as overwhelmingly embracing Chick-fil-A, with its latest location seeing customers line up “almost to the end of the block” and another location estimating that it sells one sandwich every six seconds. This, Piepenbring writes, comes despite the fact that the chain “does not quite belong here.” Chief among its allegedly out-of-place qualities is Chick-fil-A’s “pervasive Christian traditionalism.” Its locations don’t open on Sundays, its headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia displays religious imagery such as Bible verses and a Jesus statue, and it lists “to glorif

On Saturday, the state legislature in Washington passed a bill banning gay conversion therapy for minors. In other words, if a young person, wants to get out of the sinful LGBT lifestlye they can't. If they want help -to leave LGBT ideology which many now are discovering it is filled with sinful ideology, unhealthy, unbalanced, sunbject to diseas like anal cancer....looking for help...they are satuck!  The bill will be passed to Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee for his signature. If the governor signs the bill as expected, the highly controversial therapy will be outlawed statewide . The bill, known as Senate Bill 5722 , bans licensed therapists from performing "conversion therapy" on individuals under 18 years of age.  LGBT BULLIES NOW WANT TO MANIPULATE ONE ASPECT OF COUNSELLING - FORGET THE REST - JUST ONE...WHY?  It undermines their fixed ideology the LGBT is good - yet in reality it is not good, not healthy, not sound, not biological and faces health risks
