GAY TRUTH

A prominent Christian activist is sounding the alarm about what he sees as Walmart ’s “increasing capitulation” to the homosexual agenda , and calling on concerned citizens to contact the corporation to complain. Peter LaBarbera , president of Americans For Truth About Homosexuality (AFTAH), alleged in a press release that Walmart is “going gay” in response to increasing public pressure from homosexual activists, donating thousands of dollars to pro-gay political groups and extending benefits to its employees’ same-sex “domestic partners.” LaBarbera particularly objected to a grant of between $25,000 and $50,000 that the company gave to the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund – a group that funds openly homosexual candidates for political office – and accused Walmart of turning its back on traditional values to pander to a vocal minority of homosexual activists. “Giving corporate dollars to ‘gay/trans’ groups like GLVF helps Walmart increase its score on the rigged ‘ Corporate ...

Seal of Gaston County, North Carolina (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) In the wake of a federal court decision legalizing same-sex “marriage” in North Carolina , at least six judges in the state have resigned rather than be forced to officiate such unions. All stepped down, since October 10, because they believe marriage is a union between one man and one woman. They are: John Kallam Jr. ( Rockingham County ), Gilbert Breedlove ( Swain County ), Bill Stevenson ( Gaston County ), Tommy Holland (Graham County), Gayle Myrick (Union County) and Jeff Powell (Jackson County). The decision wasn’t easy for Stevenson, whose family depends on his $50,000 per year salary as their primary income. "I prayed about it; I asked for wisdom," Stevenson told the Christian Examiner. "I think our hearts have been led away by the cares of the world, our desires, and ultimately, our intense arrogance – our hubris – against the Lord.” "We've rejected the prime authority of ...

Brendan Eich speaking on "browser wars: déjà vu all over again?" (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Accolades are flowing today for Apple boss Timothy Cook, who publicly announced that he is gay in a brief  essay  in Bloomberg BusinessWeek . On Twitter, Bill Clinton , Mark Zuckerberg and Richard Branson lead a Mexican wave of admiration. If President Obama and the  New York Times  editorial board haven’t yet said their piece they soon will. The delight in gay rights ranks is understandable. Cook is not only one of the first major business leaders globally to make their sexual orientation so public; the company he leads is the biggest, wealthiest and culturally coolest corporation on the planet. The effect of his move on young people is expected to be huge. But what about the effect on other corporate leaders and public figures? Will they feel pressured, will they be forced to declare their stance on gay rights, and find their career in tatters if it turns out to...

(Note: The following piece contains spoilers for  How to Get Away With Murder .) Warning: Keep your kids away from ABC on Thursday nights at 10. Shonda Rhimes has created yet another raunchfest of a show, this one a “legal procedural” show called  How to Get Away With Murder. I put “legal procedural” quotes because anyone who’s watched a single episode of Rhimes’ long-running nighttime soap opera  Grey’s Anatomy  knows the medical setting is mostly a backdrop for exploring the convoluted sex lives of a group of total neurotics who happen to be surgeons. The same appears to be the case with Murder , which focuses extensively on the numerous sexual entanglements between the show’s sprawling ensemble cast – with a special and unusually explicit focus on homosexual relations. First, the basics: Just as  Grey’s Anatomy  started with a group of five attractive young first-year residents thrown into the deep end at a major teaching hospital,  Murder...

Ministers in the state of Idaho are facing fines and potential jail time for refusing to perform same-sex “marriages,” even though homosexuality violates their religion. In 2013, the Idaho city of Coeur D'Alene passed a law that forces all businesses to consider homosexuals the same as racial minorities when it comes to housing, employment, and "public accommodation," regardless of religious beliefs. Religious institutions are exempt from the ordinance – but according to the city, the ministers who run The Hitching Post, a wedding chapel, do not qualify for an exemption because their business operates for profit. The battle came to a head earlier this year, after Idaho's marriage law was overturned by a federal court. At the time, a deputy attorney for the city said that The Hitching Post would have to follow the ordinance because it charges what the  Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF)   calls  "a small fee" to conduct the ceremony and provide marriage...

Toronto District School Board (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) The Toronto District School Board (TDSB) is hosting three student conferences within the span of eight days for the purpose of LGBTQ activism.  The  conferences , which have been organized in collaboration with Jer’s Vision , will take place on October 28, October 30, and November 5. The first two conferences are for secondary school students, who will attend workshops relating to two-spirit and LGBTQ advocacy.  The third, which is for middle school students, will feature workshops on gay pride.  In addition, both students and teachers will be given training on advocating for all-gender washrooms.  This workshop will be given by David Stocker, a teacher who succeeded in implementing a multi-stall all-gender washroom  at a middle school in Toronto last year. Jer’s Vision plans to travel across the country organizing similar conferences over the course of the school year, before returning...

Hank affirms the Bible ’s clarity with regard to the sin of homosexuality and how attraction to the same sex, whether someone is born with this tendency or not, doesn’t justify the behavior. He also explains how we should model our Lord in showing compassion towards those involved in this behavior.

Are people born gay or straight? Much of the current media sources assume the question is a solved scientific problem with all the evidence pointing toward a biological (probably genetic) basis for a homosexual orientation . Contrary to this perception, the question has been poorly studied (or studied poorly), although there is some evidence on both sides of question. In addition, many of the initial studies, which were highly touted by the media as "proof" for a biological basis for homosexuality, have been contradicted by later, more thorough studies. This evidence falls into four basic categories: Brain structure Possible hormonal influences Concordance of homosexuality in twins Concordance of genetic markers in siblings Real genetic studies (GWAS) Why does it matter? Until a few years ago, sexual orientation used to be called sexual preference . Obviously, the two terms denote significant differences in the the manner by which sexuality develops. A preferen...
