GAY TRUTH

TORONTO, February 7, 2014  – As a number of Canadian cities  protest Russia's ban on homosexual propaganda  by flying rainbow flags outside their city hall, Toronto ’s Mayor Rob Ford put his foot down today demanding that a rainbow flag raised above Toronto City Hall be taken down. “[The Olympics is] not about someone’s sexual preference,” Ford told reporters at City Hall today, according to the  National Post . “No, I do not agree with putting up the rainbow flag. We should put up the Canadian flag.” Toronto Mayor Rob Ford Reporters watched Ford as he walked outside to inspect a Canadian flag just hung in his office window. “This is the Olympics,” he continued. “This is about being patriotic to your country. This is not about your sexual preference.” When one reporter told Ford that the rainbow flag was meant as a sign of solidarity with Russian LGBT people, Ford replied: “Let Russia do what they want. We’re Canadians here.” Russia’s recent laws p...

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, January 30, 2014 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A number of Vancouver taxpayers are furious that they are being forced to foot the bill for a homosexual activist who is a city councillor to travel to Sochi not for the Olympics, but to lobby the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to include sexual orientation in its charter. “We’re not there for the Olympics,” Councillor and Deputy Mayor Tim Stevenson  told  the  Globe and Mail  on Tuesday, a day after his departure. “In fact, the Olympic Games open on the 7th and we come back on the 9th. I want the IOC to have a constitutional change in their charter so that sexual orientation is included in their charter.” Vancouver Deputy Mayor Tim Stevenson is in Sochi lobbying the IOC to include "sexual orientation" in its charter. Stevenson, an ordained minister in the pro-homosexual United Church of Canada (UCC) who is married to UCC gay minister Gary Paterson, will meet with representatives of...

MOSCOW,  – The Russian government has outflanked opponents from the homosexualist lobby furious over the prohibition on promoting the “gay lifestyle” by proposing to expand the law to include promotion to children of any sexual activity outside natural marriage. The existing law makes it a crime to promote “non-traditional” homosexual relations to children and young people under 18. Changes to the law, submitted in the Duma on Friday, propose to remove the term “non-traditional” sexual activity, and change the wording to a prohibition on propagandizing of any sexual relations among under-aged children and of the idea of a “priority of sexual relations” on children’s minds, Itar-Tass reported Sunday. The bill cites the increase in sexual activity among teens as well as the need to protect children from information “damaging to the values of family life, the spiritual and intellectual development of minors.” In the lead-up to ...

KRASNAYA POLYANA , Russia , January 20, 2014 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) - Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Friday that homosexual people are welcome to attend the Sochi Olympics and can "feel safe and free" in Russia during the winter games, but warned them to “leave children in peace.” Homosexuality itself is not a crime in Russia, so gay people can “feel calm, at ease, but leave children in peace, please,” Putin said at a meeting with Olympic volunteers in the mountain village of Krasnaya Polyana, the base outside Sochi for Olympic snow sports, according to  RIA Novosti . "We don't outlaw anything and don't nab anyone. Our law prescribes no responsibility for these kinds of relationships unlike laws in some other countries do,” he said. But he did emphasize that the law bans homosexual propaganda targeting minors. Putin signed that bill into law last June, forbidding the promotion of homosexuality and other forms of “nontraditional sexual ...

TORONTO, September 3, 2013 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) - The idea of a boycott of the 2014 Olympic games in Russia in protest over laws that ban propaganda promoting the homosexual lifestyle. In a new poll of Canadians by  Forum Research , the majority (58%) disagree that Canada should boycott the 2014 Sochi Olympics, while less that one third agree with such an action (32%). One tenth (10%) had no opinion on the issue.  However, a slightly smaller majority (56%) also think Canadian athletes at Sochi should be allowed to show their support for homosexuality by wearing rainbow pins or carrying rainbow flags, an activity forbidden by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).  The  IOC's charter  specifically prohibits demonstrations or political propaganda in any Olympic sites, venues or other areas. (Bylaw to Rule 50.)  "Any violation of the provisions of the present clause may result in disqualification or withdrawal of the accreditation of the...

(Photo Credit: Lefteris Pitarakis / AP) ( crisismagazine.com ) – A  psychiatrist of the early 20th century coined “homosexual panic” to describe an overreaction by heterosexuals who have been hit on by a gay guy. Now it’s the gays turn to panic, in this case by any public criticism, imaginary or otherwise, or legal restriction on their proselytizing. Gay writer Jonathan Capehart   published a short piece in the  Washington Post  this week in which he oh-so-bravely spoke truth to Gospel power. He attended his aunt’s funeral in North Carolina at which the preacher’s “guest eulogy gave way to a harsh sermon about who can and cannot get into the kingdom of heaven.” From what Capehart quotes, the preacher did not actually talk about who can get into heaven but rather who can “transform” their lives by washing themselves in the “b...
