A Review of The Global Sexual Revolution. By Gabriele Kuby.

Image
In 300 well-documented pages, Gabriele Kuby makes it crystal clear that the sexual revolution has been every bit as wide-ranging and destructive as other fateful events such as the Russian revolution and the French revolution . The trouble is, the sexual revolution shows no signs of abating, but in fact is getting worse, damaging everything it touches. The German sociologist released this book in 2012, but it has only recently been translated into English, and we all can be grateful that it has. It is a detailed look at the sexual revolution and its bitter fruit. She begins by examining some of the founding fathers of the sexual revolution, those who especially attacked the family unit, sexual morality, and the Christian churches . These include Karl Marx , Margaret Sanger , Wilhelm Reich , Alfred Kinsey , and John Money . These and others paved the way for the social upheaval and the sexual freefall we are still experiencing today.  Bad ideas have bad consequences, and t...

Genderism – a new ideology destroying the family

Image
Karl Marx (1818-1883) (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Editor’s Note: The following address by German author and social commentator Gabriele Kuby was delivered earlier this month in Moscow at the International Forum on Large Families and the Future of Humanity. We are witnessing an astonishing historical shift. More than a hundred years ago, Marxism declared the relationship of man and woman in monogamous marriage as “the first class antagonism” in history. This “class-conflict” had to be overcome by destroying marriage and the family. So in 1917, Alexandra Kollontai , the first woman commissar of the Bolshevik Central Committee, set out to put this into practise through the exercise of revolutionary power: A law for the dissolution of marriage Legalization of abortion Sexual freedom for youth Legalization of homosexuality Integration of women into the production process, and Bringing up children in collective state institutions. But even Lenin soon realized that this ...

Stop the ‘gay rights’ charade: Russia is only protecting its children

Image
Let’s face it, Russians are different: Tsarism, Stalinism, Putinism all set Russia apart and have given the West a superiority complex. But, like the rest of us, Russians like to boast about the high points of their culture and history – Tolstoy, the Bolshoi, Sputnik and all that – which they did to awesome effect in the  opening ceremony  of the Winter Olympics at the weekend. Not even the most expensive – and possibly most impressive -- Olympic extravaganza to date, however, could obliterate the carping about gay rights that has accompanied the Sochi games.  Everyone from UN boss  Ban Ki Moon  to a little old  grandmother  in Berlin has been wagging the finger or waving placards at Russia’s terrible homophobic laws. “More than 200 leading international authors including Salman Rushdie, Margaret Atwood and Jonathan Franzen criticised the anti-gay law as well as blasphemy legislation as a 'chokehold' on creativity, in an open letter ...

US Olympian slams ‘ridiculous’ gay luge ad

Image
SOCHI, February 11, 2014 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A member of the American luge team in Sochi is furious over an ad produced by a Canadian homosexual advocacy group, saying the attempt to portray doubles luging as sexually suggestive in order to promote "gay rights" is “ridiculous” and “sad.” The 33-second video, produced by the Canadian Institute of Diversity and Inclusion (CIDI), features two figures sitting on a luge sled and swaying back and forth suggestively to music with the lyrics "Don't you want me baby.” A screen grab from the sexualized 'gay luge' advertisement. The ad ends with the tagline: “The Games have always been a little gay. Let’s fight to keep them that way.” “It’s a gross misrepresentation of everything. All of it seems like a lie to me,” three-time Olympian luger Christian Niccum told Reuters. “To compare sports to sexuality is ridiculous." The ‘gay luge’ ad can be viewed on Youtube  here .

Fighting back against the global LGBT agenda: the resistance arises

Image
October 29, 2013 ( Public Discourse ) - On September 14, 2013, I had the privilege of attending the “ Summer University ” of the Manif pour Tous . The latter is the French grassroots movement that sprang up last year as a counterrevolution against President Hollande’s same-sex marriage law. While I had been involved in the Manif since January, it was at the September conference that I saw the larger picture of what is happening in Europe. This year I also traveled to Brussels, Strasbourg, and London for the first time, on a mission to forge a transnational alliance for children’s rights. Those who have defended marriage until now may feel beleaguered. They may be irritated with the press’s misconstruing of Pope Francis ’s multiple comments about compassion toward homosexuals. Nevertheless, Europe ought not to be cause for pessimism. On the contrary, Europe has an active underground building Defense of the Family 2.0. England and France —Carthaginian or Pyrrhic Victories for the LGBT ...

Secretary of State Kerry: promoting gay rights abroad ‘at the very heart’ of U.S. policy

Image
WASHINGTON, D.C. , June 10, 2013 ( LifeSiteNews ) – Secretary of State John Kerry wishes homosexuals around the world a “Happy Pride Month .”  That was the message conveyed in a recorded message released Friday to employees of the U.S. State Department , in which he outlined the bureaucracy’s  robust approach  to  promoting   homosexual advocacy  throughout the world. “I wanted to take a moment to join people around the world in celebrating Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride month,” Kerry said in the message. “This month is about the assertion of equality and dignity. It is about the affirmation of fundamental freedoms and human rights. It is about people taking pride in who they are, no matter their sexual orientation or gender identity. Protecting universal human rights is at the very heart of our diplomacy, and we remain committed to advancing human rights for all, including LGBT individuals. We are committed to advancing these rights ...

Estonian same-sex partnership stalled after family campaigners presented 38,000 signatures

Image
The founder of Estonia’s pro-family movement said in an interview with a Polish Catholic television program that the country’s draft law on same-sex marriage will not go forward after his group presented the government with nearly 40,000 signatures defending traditional marriage. Law professor Varro Vooglaid told Polonia Christiana that presentation of the petition from the Estonian Foundation for Defense of Tradition and Family will not allow the homosexualist ideologues to frame the issue in terms of “human rights”. Last month , the group presented a petition of 38,000 signatures to Estonia’s parliament to oppose all plans that may be put forward to re-define marriage to include same-sex partnerings. This, Vooglaid said, has shown the homosexualist lobby that there is going to be serious and organised opposition to their plans. The petition form was delivered to 580,000 households, in a country with a total population of 1.2 million.  Vooglaid called the petition, the...
