Gay group demands political party boot Christian pol or be banned from Pride parade

Image
One of the perverse things about today’s progressives is not simply that they are so often wrong, but that they often mean precisely the opposite of what they are saying but do not realize it. The promoters of “diversity” and “tolerance,” for example, make the witch-burners look positively relaxed as they ruthlessly hunt heretics and hound them from their jobs. Diversity is acceptable only within the narrowest of lanes — you can, for example, support the LGBTQIA2S agenda, but nobody will get too fussed if you just say you support the LGBTQ agenda, because it is presumed that you mean the same thing. Any indication that you do not support whatever the newest thing is, however, will not be tolerated. The latest would-be victim of the heresy-hunters is British Columbian politician Laurie Throness, the MLA for the constituency of Chilliwack-Kent. Throness and several other MLAs, as it turns out, had run ads in a Christian publication that, to the horror of Chilliwack Progress editor...

Trudeau’s Liberal govt sends millions of taxpayer dollars to promote ‘gay tourism’

Image
Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government is giving $1 million each to Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver homosexual Pride Parades in a bid to cash in on the lucrative “LGBTQ2” sodomy tourism industry and burnish Canada’s reputation as a sodomy-friendly destination. Tourism minister Mélanie Joly and finance minister Bill Morneau announced the fund in Toronto Tuesday when unveiling a Liberal tourism strategy that puts “investments in LGBTQ2 tourism” as a top priority. LGBTQ “travellers, on average, vacation four to six times a year, versus one to two for other travellers, spend 33 per cent more, and are known to return to places where they had good experiences,” says a ministry news release. “Canada already has an established reputation as one of the most LGBTQ2-friendly countries in the world, and its largest cities are routinely recognized worldwide as popular LGBTQ2 destinations.” The money comes out of a $58.5-million Canadian Experiences Fund (CEF) intended to help communities b...

Justin Trudeau: homosexuality is no longer about ‘tolerance,’ but ‘acceptance’

Image
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said at a press conference prior to Montreal’s Pride parade earlier this month that it's not enough to just be tolerant of homosexuality, Canadians must now “accept” homosexuality. "Can we stop talking about tolerance?" said the LGBT activist Canadian prime minister, wearing a pink shirt. "We need to talk about acceptance." The prime minister did not respond to questions asking him to clarify his statement and what it might mean to the millions of Canadians whose religions teach that homosexuality is contrary to God’s plan for sexuality. Instead, Eleanore Catenaro, the press secretary for the Prime Minister's Office responded with a short e-mailed comment: "The prime minister and our government are committed to advancing equality, and will always stand up for the rights of the LGBTQ2 community and all Canadians." At Campaign Life Coalition, though, senior political analyst Jack Fonseca said the prime minister's no...

Aren't Christians being selective with Old Testament law when they appeal to it with respect to homosexuality, while ignoring Old Testament commands about clothing, food, etc.?

Image
Question: Aren't Christians being selective with Old Testament law when they appeal to it with respect to homosexuality, while ignoring Old Testament commands about clothing, food, etc.? In some sense, yes, because we are singling out the  moral law , which is exactly what the New Testament trains us to do. The book of Acts distinctly separates the ceremonial and liturgical laws from the moral law. The Lord told Peter not to distinguish between clean and unclean animals any longer (Acts 10:9-16). At the same time, the Jerusalem Council clearly confirmed the continuation of the moral law ( Acts 15 ). Paul tells us the gospel is for the Gentiles as well as for the Jews, which obliterates that distinction in the holiness code.  Nevertheless, Paul regularly returns to the moral law of the Old Testament to show and defend the character of righteous living in general and rule commandments against same-sex acts in particular.   If we still depended on rule Levit...

Exposing the Truth behind Homosexuality and the Homosexual Agenda

Image
"[homophobia] This is a word that is not a scientific term. This is a rhetorical tool of psychological manipulation… Because everyone knows if you dare to say homosexuality is wrong…you are a homophobe, which means you have a mental illness. That’s what’s built into this terminology." "What does the gay movement mean when it says tolerance?...It means absolutely unconditionally accepting it as perfectly normal, healthy, natural and something that should be integrated into every part of society ." "The term ‘ sexual orientation ’…is basically a code word for homosexuality." "If your definition of homosexuality is being able to do whatever you want to and that you should be able to go and engage in sex with another person and because of that the disease you have is going to spread to that person and they’re going to take it home and give it to their wife, how much tolerance should we have for that?...zero tolerance." "Most of the people…t...

Was he against homosexual marriage, before he was for it? Is he really against homosexual marriage now?

Image
Was he against it, before he was for it? Is he really against it now? The ordeal experienced last week by popular author Eugene Peterson was agonizing to observe, largely self-inflicted, and virtually inevitable. You should pay close attention to it, for you might very well be next. The ordeal began with Peterson, one of the most influential authors among evangelical pastors , responding to two straightforward questions about homosexuality and same-sex marriage. Jonathan Merritt of Religion News Service referenced homosexuality and same-sex marriage and then asked Peterson if his view on the morality of same-sex relationships had changed. Peterson was pastor of Christ Our King Presbyterian Church in Bel Air, Maryland for 29 years, before retiring in 1991. In his answer, however, Peterson said, “I haven’t had a lot of experience with it.” An earlier congregation where he served as associate pastor, included “several women who were lesbians,” but didn’t “make a big deal about it.” ...

Homosexual QANTAS boss -humiliates pie-thrower

Image
The Perth man who put a lemon meringue pie in the face of Qantas chief CEO homosexual Alan Joyce in protest against Joyce's company promotion of  immoral homosexual marriage has been fined $3,600.  But have any homosexuals zealots who have attacked ACL conferences, buildings been charged?  This fine was instigated by homosexual Joyce to cover his embarrassment. Tony Overheu, 67, was at a business breakfast at a city hotel in May and placed the pie in Mr Joyce's face while he was on stage addressing a crowd of about 500 people.  Many who oppose Joyce's intentionally and blantantly promotion of homosexuality (through QANTAS staff and workers and other companies) - felt Joyce needed to know not everybody agrees with his own promoted sin of homosexuality and pushing it onto the Australian public through other companies. Overheu pleaded guilty in the Perth Magistrates Court to a charges of assault and trespass. A pie is now assault and trespass. Bu...

Should gay people be accepted as members in the community of faith or ordained to church leadership?

Image
The Revisionist Answer The liberating ethic of love demands that a local church accept gays and allow them to participate fully in membership, including leadership. The Bible does not concern itself with the modern idea of mutually committed relationships of people who have been gay from birth. The Bible does not condemn such. It is obvious, then, that churches should ordain gay people for ministry. The Biblical Answer Ample evidence exists that the ancients knew and sometimes practiced gay relationships and mutuality. Paul’s discussion in Romans 1 , 1 Corinthians 6:9 –11, and 1 Timothy 1:8–10 must include this understanding of homosexual relationships. In addition, Paul’s vice list—including “ homosexuals ” (arsenokoitai)—occurs in a broader context of those who “shall not inherit the kingdom of God” ( 1 Cor. 6:9–11) and who should, like the person involved in sexual immorality , come under the discipline of the church or be excommunicated if there is no repentance (5:1...

Liberal Pastor says homosexual sin is an arbitrary religious belief

Image
Rev. Paul Raushenbush says:  By accepting the case of the Colorado baker who refused to bake a cake for a homosexual couple, the Supreme Court is opening up the possibility that an arbitrary religious belief might be used to sanction discrimination and refusal of service to a citizen. Religious freedom is a foundational principle of our country, something we should all hold sacred. However, when one person’s beliefs turn into actions that trample on the dignity of another, freedom of religion morphs into deified discrimination.  Unfortunately, Raushenbush doesn't believe the Bible that homosexuality is not a sin but a dignified lifestyle choice. His words, mean if Jesus were to condemn a sinner in effect Jesus is - 'trampling the dignity of another.' Even for a liberal, the argument is weak. Are homosexual pride marches dignified or just an excuse for overt sexual nudity?  Rev. Paul Raushenbush goes further clearly implying he is not a pastor of the Chri...

Trudeau brings his children to Gay Pride march while wearing Muslim socks

Image
Canada ’s Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau marched with his wife and two children in Toronto’s Pride Parade on Sunday, accompanied by Ontario ’s openly lesbian Premier Kathleen Wynne .  Prior to the parade Trudeau, who calls himself Catholic, wished Muslims a “Pride Mubarak ," referring to a Muslim religious holiday coinciding with the day of the parade in which Muslims celebrate the end of the holy month of fasting.  “This [Pride Parade] is all about including people, which is why today on Eid al-Fitr I’m happy to wish a ‘Pride Mubarak’ [Muslim for ‘Blessed Pride’] to everyone as well who is celebrating of the Muslim faith,” said Trudeau.  “It’s all about how we celebrate the multiple layers of identities that make Canada extraordinary and strong. Today we celebrate with the entire LGBTQ2 community,” he added.  For the event the Liberal leader wore rainbow colored socks that had the Muslim words “ Eid Mubarak ” [blessed celebration of the ...

YouTube bans ‘Gay Pride’ video because it ‘sexualizes minors’

Image
Two days ago, we posted a story about a  shocking video  showing a little girl waving a rainbow flag in front of a nearly nude male dancer during a “gay pride” celebration.   The video was too offensive, so the “dancer” was blurred out . But it was important in order to draw attention to the super- sexualization of children through exposure to “ Gay Pride ” events, which often display full or partial nudity and provocative simulated sex or dance.   Bravo, YouTube ! In a move that was as stunning as the story, YouTube quickly removed the video and issued a warning, saying “YouTube isn’t the place for nudity or sexually provocative content. Sexual content involving minors is particularly sensitive. YouTube prohibits uploading, commenting, or engaging in any type of activity that sexualizes minors.” The warning went further, saying “Your video, ‘ Girl watches man’s vulgar dance at Gay Pride Parade ’ was flagged for review ... we’ve determined that it ...
