GAY TRUTH

No one likes being the bearer of bad news—certainly I don't! But I have to tell you what our opponents are up to in the four states voting on marriage next Tuesday. You see, they are spooked by recent polls showing us with momentum on our side, and so they have unleashed  an avalanche of lies  and harassment in a desperate attempt to score their first state victory and avoid four more crushing defeats. Here's just a sample of the myths and falsehoods our opponents are filling the airwaves (and your mailboxes) with every day: In  Washington State , our opponents are airing ads claiming that if we do not redefine marriage, individuals in a same-sex domestic partnership will be denied hospital visitation rights (Washington law says they cannot be denied). Our opponents are sending out mailers to senior citizens claiming they will lose their health care and pay higher taxes on their Social Security benefits if gay marriage is not legalized (the Washington State S...

John Piper (theologian) (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) In modern cultures, every Christian is faced with the problem of homosexuality. Churches are pulled into the tension, too, because “there is  no demilitarized zone  in the homosexual debate.” Shrugging isn’t an option. The implications are all around us, in schools, in politics, in denominational tensions, and — maybe most importantly — in determining how the Church lives out her faithful witness to a culture in desperate need of Christ. With the marriage amendment on the Minnesota ballot, and with a growing list of personal questions, I contacted Dr. Robert Gagnon, a professor of New Testament at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary and a man who has for many years bravely addressed homosexuality from a biblical and theological perspective. In 2002 he published the 500-page book  The Bible and Homosexual Practice: Texts and Hermeneutics . A decade later his work remains the most thoroughly exegetical and herme...

Sixteen months ago, when turncoat politicians pushed same-sex marriage through behind closed doors in the dark of night, NOM promised that we would not stop until marriage was restored in New York. And the first order of business was to hold accountable the seven turncoat senators who imposed same-sex marriage on the state. With your help, we have already come a long way! Four of the seven have already been defeated, and the remaining three are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in a desperate attempt to save their careers. James Alesi .  Roy McDonald .  Carl Kruger .  Shirley Huntley . Mark Grisanti . Stephen Saland. Joseph Addabbo . James Alesi—despite earlier boasts—saw the handwriting on the wall and decided to retire rather than face voters. In May, NOM helped elect pro-marriage David Storobin to replace disgraced Senator Carl Kruger in a special election. Last month, for the first time in more than fifty years, a sitting Republican senator...

Washington, D.C. October 29, 2012 ( LifeSiteNews ) – The homosexual Log Cabin Republicans group have endorsed GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney , after an October 17 meeting in Virginia. The meeting between Romney and the homosexual group, which reportedly lasted only fifteen minutes, was closed to the press and not announced in advance. According to reports, the meeting focused on the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), which, if passed, could force faith-based institutions and schools to hire open homosexuals.  There was  some speculation  in the media that Romney secured the group’s endorsement by promising to support the bill; however, neither Romney’s campaign nor the Log Cabin group have confirmed any commitment regarding the legislation. “He gave us a firm personal view of opposing workplace discrimination without endorsing ENDA specifically,” said Log Cabin Republican Jim Kolbe , who attended the meeting. Log Cabin Republican’s executi...

Minneapolis, MN , October 29, 2012 ( LifeSiteNews ) – They used to call them “swingers.”  Not anymore.  These days, like most “alternative lifestyle” groups, they’ve adopted a new, more clinical-sounding description – polyamorist – and incorporated it into the names of a small but growing number of advocacy and social networking organizations.  As the battle over the true definition of marriage heats up nationwide, they want a place on the front line. Polyamorists now want a seat at the table of "equality" and "tolerance." “ Polyamorist ” means “lover of many,” and it’s exactly what it sounds like.  Polyamorists maintain more than one sexual relationship at a time, with the full consent and knowledge of all partners.  Some are married to one partner but maintain a rotating stable of lovers.  Others join together in more lasting unions between multiple partners – for example, a threesome or foursome (which they call ‘triads’ and ‘quads,’) wherein...

Students are getting suspended for standing up for traditional marriage. Bullied. People are getting fired and put on leave from their jobs. Business owners are getting sued. Professional licenses are being revoked. Christian service agencies are being forcibly shut down. This is not a live-and-let-live proposition. No, this is an all-out assault on our sacred religious and constitutional values . . . and we can't afford to lose!

The objection goes something like this: “In the midst of all of your attention to details of various Bible verses, you’ve lost the big picture. The cardinal virtue that Jesus taught His followers was  love . If you value love, what’s the problem with two consenting adults making a commitment to each other out of love? Love is love. To insist that homosexuality is sinful and to deny them the right to get married is simply not loving, and therefore not Christian.” So you see how the collective reasoning of the culture paints the Christian into a corner here. Any response which does not fully affirm homosexuality—no matter what the Bible explicitly says about the matter—is  hatred , pure and simple. And Jesus calls us to love. And you claim to follow Jesus. So you’re an un-American , un-Christian, hypocritical bigot. Love as Unconditional Acceptance But the argument simply doesn’t hold water. And this is the reason: the wisdom of secular society has failed to defin...
