Biology is not bigotry

LGBT activists like to portray their small community as victims of bigotry, hatred, and harassment. They use that portrayal, with the help of their allies in the media, in a relentless push to force all of society to accept their skewed, false narrative about the intrinsic nature of men and women, and human sexuality. Consider these two cases currently in the news: Isabella Chow is a student at UC Berkeley in California and is an elected member of the campus Student Senate. She is also a Christian. LGBT activists presented a student resolution to express support for transgenderism. This is not something that Chow could do and maintain her beliefs that God made us male and female. So she decided to abstain on the resolution after issuing a statement that all people, including those who identify as transgendered, are entitled to God's love and should be free from discrimination. For this, she's been brutally attacked in the public square, yelled at on the way to class, conf...

New Research Debunks The Claim That Your Beliefs Can Kill Gay People

Image
ACCEPT OUR HOMOSEXUALITY - OR WE DIE 12 YEARS TOO SOON - NOW SEEN TO BE FAKE RESEARCH It was a spectacular assertion. A 2014 study published in the journal Social Science & Medicine by a Columbia University researcher asserted that “sexual minorities living in communities with high levels of anti-gay prejudice ” have a “shorter life expectancy of approximately 12 years.” Yes , you heard that right. Being gay in an unwelcoming community takes 12 years off your life! This study was heralded broadly by the press with no critical analysis provided for the reader. Not one mainstream journalist stopped to consider, much less challenge, the sweeping grandeur of this claim. It was used as a blunt object to condemn anyone not keen on the mainstreaming of homosexuality. Quite blunt it was. Reducing another’s life by 12 years by failing to agree with his or her sexual desires is no small charge. But is it legit? Compare This to Other Major Health Conditions First, just consider this...

Traditional beliefs ignored in marriage equality debate

Image
Opposing change on the basis of deeply held beliefs isn’t bigotry. In recent years there has been a remarkable shift in sentiment across the Western world about same-sex marriage. It may well be that in the next Federal Parliament, if not in this, there will be a majority of MPs who support change. The change in thinking is particularly apparent in the Labor Party. Less than four years ago, party policy was to oppose same-sex marriage. A little more than 10 years ago it voted with the Coalition to include in the Marriage Act a definition of marriage as between a man and a woman. Now, by 2019, MPs who hold that view will no longer be able to have a conscience vote on the matter. The implicit message, regrettably, is that people of devout faith who hold traditional views about marriage are no longer welcome in the party – a position that will be electorally dangerous for Labor in the long term. These are the "true believers" that Labor is leaving behind in embracing this ch...

Australia: Homosexual advocates against accuse Christians of hate and bigotry

Image
"The Australian public just voted for a new Parliament in which a majority of members support marriage equality," she said. But is this true? No. Again the homosexual lobby keeps presenting false facts. The Prime Minister appeared at the Sydney Gay Pride March along with his wife and believes the vote for immoral homosexual marriage will fly through. Because of these statements, many conservatives have abandoned the Liberal Party in the last election voting for independents and others, simply because of this leaders position on homosexual marriage. Marriage equality advocate Rodney Croome said 70 per cent level of support when a plebiscite was first mooted last August had fallen as people became aware of the cost and the specifics of the Coalition proposal. Yet many Australians support the vote so they can express their opposition to the gay agenda. Children will be the victims of this new immorality. LGBT issues also will not stop with marriage. Churches and places o...

Homosexual science flawed

Image
While personal gain—fame, fortune (research grants), and careerism—are the probable explanation for much fraud, another and not unrelated one is political correctness. Grants and promotion are surely more certain when one’s results conform to social expectations. Fortunately, there are enough conservative academics and schools to provide more than one way of looking at reality. Both sides in the debate over same sex “marriage” in the U.S. can therefore cite scientific evidence for their opposite positions on its impact on the children. A federal court considering a constitutional challenge of Michigan’s new law reserving marriage to heterosexual relationships was presented with 57 studies showing same sex couples produced identical outcomes as heterosexual ones. It also was presented two or three studies showing the opposite, including one by Simon Fraser University economist Doug Allen. The Michigan judge not only threw out Michigan’s marriage law, he also deemed Allen’s resea...

Pro-LGBT Catholic pastors met in Rome for pre-Synodal conference

Image
Around a hundred people gathered at the Pilgrim Centre “Santa Teresa Couderc” in Rome , for the international conference entitled Ways of Love: Snapshots of Catholic Encounters With LGBT People and Their Families, sponsored by the “Global Network of Rainbow Catholics”, a worldwide network of organisations that, in the name of “social justice”, demands inclusion and dignity for LGBT people and their families within the Catholic Church and society in general. The meeting was attended by Catholic pastoral leaders from around the world, who came together to share, through their stories, their pastoral approach and work in favour of LGBT people within their ecclesiastical communities. In addition to drawing up new action plans, a clear and stated objective of the initiative was to apply some pressure to the impending crucial Ordinary Synod of Bishops on the topic of the Family, which opened in Rome on Monday 5th October. Presenting the event, two of the conference spokespersons, Andre...

Poll suggests most people wrongly believe Pope Francis backs gay ‘marriage’ - confusion generated intentionally by media

Image
Español: Intercambio de anillos entre los novios (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) A considerable majority of U.S. Catholics are in conflict with Church teaching on abortion and marriage , a new study says, and a startling number of those also believe Pope Francis backs homosexual “marriage.” Despite Church teachings, Catholics in America also closely parallel the general populace in their support for abortion and homosexual “marriage,” falling short in the Biblical call to be “in the world but not of the world.” The findings suggest what   many   Catholics have said   is a   climate   of   confusion   in the midst of the   Francis pontificate . Concerns over that confusion prompted a coalition of pro-family groups to respond with an international petition effort   asking the pope to reaffirm Church teaching, drawing more than a half-million signatures. The   survey , conducted by Public Religions Research Institute, found that...

A policeman looks on as members of the Canadian Military march to the National War Memorial, during Remembrance Day ceremonies in Ottawa. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) OTTAWA, August 17, 2015 - A 26-year-old Mennonite missionary was violently stabbed in the back on Friday by a pro- LGBTQ woman who became aggressive after he shared with her his Christian beliefs regarding homosexuality. “The confrontation was about the idea of homosexuality…if that’s OK, if that’s acceptable, and whether God loves somebody who is in that state. And we assured her that he does,” said Eric Brubacher, a member of the Mennonite community who was present during the attack, to CTV. The unnamed victim was rushed to the hospital where he was treated for non-life threatening injuries and then released. The attacker fled the scene of the crime. The stabbing occurred in the Byward Market area three days prior to the opening of Ottawa ’s “ Pride Week ” where homosexuality is celebrated and promoted ope...

Gay confusion and Gender madness

Image
The last few months have been emotionally tiring for Christians in America. Though many debate whether the United States was ever a “ Christian nation ,” there can be no denying that a Christian worldview and biblical principles were fundamental in the formation of this country. Indeed, the founding fathers understood this even as they crafted the charter documents of our government. Thomas Jefferson wrote that the “inalienable rights” of “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,” which mark the ideals of every American, are endowed to us by our Creator. John Adams wrote, “We have no government, armed with power, capable of contending with human passions, unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge and licentiousness would break the strongest cords of our Constitution, as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” And for many years, America seemed to...

Supreme Court gay marriage with strong opposing views

State bans on same-sex marriage are no longer legal in America, the US Supreme Court ruled 5-4 today. So the question becomes: How will gay rights and religious rights be balanced ? Below is what the justices said in today's majority opinion and four dissents, as well as a summary of related survey data. Essentially, the majority believe the First Amendment gives religious groups and people "proper protection" to "continue to advocate" their beliefs on traditional marriage. But the dissenters are more skeptical, and concerned that "people of faith can take no comfort" in the ruling. "Many who deem same-sex marriage to be wrong reach that conclusion based on decent and honorable religious or philosophical premises," acknowledges Justice Anthony Kennedy, writing for the majority in Obergefell v. Hodges , "and neither they nor their beliefs are disparaged here." He explains that while that "sincere, personal opposition" can...
