GAY TRUTH

  Objection Stated What is “natural” in Romans 1 is not what is “natural” in the sense of “natural law,” but what is “natural to me.” The reference is not to homosexuals but to heterosexuals who go beyond their natural bounds and engage in homosexuality . Thus John Boswell writes, On the other hand, it should be recognised that the point of the passage is not to stigmatise sexual behaviour of any sort but to condemn the Gentiles for their general infidelity.… The reference to homosexuality is simply a mundane analogy to this theological sin; it is patently not the crux of this argument.… What is even more important, the persons Paul condemns are manifestly not homosexual: what he derogates are homosexual acts committed by apparently heterosexual persons.  The whole point of Romans 1, in fact, is to stigmatise persons who have rejected their calling, gotten off the true path they were once on. It would completely undermine the thrust of the argument if the persons in question w...

  For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. (Romans 1:26–27) Few sections of Scripture are more profound, more foundational to Christian thought, than the opening verses of Paul’s epistle to the Romans. The first chapter has provided Christian writers with insights into the human condition that have resulted in some of the most important published works on the Christian worldview.  Western culture’s view of law and ethics has been deeply influenced by these thirty-two verses. So it is hardly surprising that those who seek to undermine that Christian worldview and foundation invest great effort in reinterpreting these words, at least until they can be safely and ...

An Oregon mother is once again free to adopt children in need now that a settlement has been finalised in her fight for the right not to affirm LGBT ideology. As covered last year by LifeSiteNews, Jessica Bates is a “devout Christian and widowed mother of five” who sought to adopt but objected to the Oregon Department of Human Services’s requirement that adoptive parents “affirm” children’s “gender identity” and was disqualified for refusing to use opposite-sex pronouns, take children to “pride” parades or give them puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones. Bates sued in 2023 on First Amendment grounds, and last year a three-judge panel of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled she was likely to succeed and therefore could resume the adoption process while the case worked its way through the system. The panel found at the time that the state’s requirements “quite clearly restrict and compel speech based on both content and viewpoint,” violating the principle that government “may not i...

Several female inmates spoke out about a male pedophile in a Minnesota women's prison who allegedly has exposed himself and composed rape poetry. A male pedophile who got himself incarcerated with women by identifying as “transgender” is using his access to expose himself to them and subject them to his rape poetry, according to the testimony of inmates who say prison officials fail to do anything about it. Reduxx reported that Daniel Patrick Benz has a 20-year criminal record that includes robbery, assault, and child sexual abuse (a 6-year-old girl he molested on multiple occasions) but was released in September 2024 and re-arrested this past June after a vehicle stop revealed he had multiple firearms and ammunition (illegal due to his criminal record) and had apparently broken into several storage units with the tools also in his possession. In 2023, during his previous sentence, he declared himself transgender, changed his legal name to Danielle Marie Whitebird, and petitioned ...
