Notice: Undefined index: index in /www/saboteurweb.com/content/words.php on line 32 preaching part 2* My response to Linda Harvey's writing titled "What homosexual marriage will mean to America's children". My counterpoints are prefixed with an asterisk, the preceding indented paragraph before each one is an unedited quote from Linda Harvey's original text. The text can be found at http://worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=33660 In many circles, this is the prevailing sentiment regarding the possible legalization of same-sex relationships as "marriages" in the U.S. If the Supreme Court in the state of Massachusetts rules in favor of the homosexual couples who have sued for marriage rights, then other states will most likely be forced to recognize these couplings as marriages under the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the U.S. Constitution. * This is likely. Times change. That which has been the standard for dozens of years does not rule out the possibility that it has been false for dozens of years. (Current anti-gay legislation around the world, the Bible, etc.) There's just one problem with this angle: It doesn't take into account the impact on children. If same-sex relationships become the law of the land, then homosexual marriage will be presented to America's schoolchildren as the equivalent of heterosexual marriage. * If you are saying that homosexual marriage is not the equivalent of heterosexual marriage, then I agree with you. Probably not for the same reason, though. Homosexual and heterosexual marriage are, in fact, the same. Neither is an equivalent of anything, they are the exact same thing. Two people in love, dedicating their lives for each other. America's schoolchildren should know that. Knowledge is a considerable factor in reducing prejudice, and in the long run reducing prejudice will create a better world for everybody, no matter what their sexuality. Here's how and why it will happen. Right now, the vast majority of U.S. public school districts have put themselves in a very vulnerable position, one that conservatives have been warning about for years but few school boards listened. What they've done is add under their non-discrimination policies the category of "sexual orientation." It only remains for enough time to elapse – and for same-sex marriage to be legalized – for "gay" education activists to force schools to implement sweeping changes in curricular content. * "Sweeping" is not a word I would use. But do you understand that not every person in the world is heterosexual, christian, american, white and hopes to be married and have a SUV and a dog at some point in their life? That's what society is teaching our children today, and schools are in many ways a big part of that. That must be changed. Diversity is but richness, and we should see that. Just like children today are being taught that it's ok to be black or tall or short, children today should be taught that it's ok to be gay or lesbian or bisexual (to name a few examples). Schools were created to open the minds of our children to help them become even smarter adults that their parents were. I said _open their minds_, not build walls to restrict their thinking. Among those changes will be "diverse" textbooks that include same-sex couples as role models, even for little children. To refuse such content will be considered "discrimination," and the American Civil Liberties Union and Lambda Legal Defense Fund will take that district to court, as they have recently in order to force homosexual clubs onto schools. If not those two well-heeled groups, then the National Education Association will sue, as it has promised, on behalf of any teachers involved. Increasingly liberal courts, modeling themselves after the Supremes, are pretty likely to rule in favor of such plaintiffs. * Knowledge is power. We should not try to protect our children from knowledge. It is not possible to influence a child's sexual preference. If "diverse" textbooks existed, more kids would no longer be afraid to acknowledge that they are gay. Sexuality does not cause mental problems, but repression of sexuality does. It took me years to comprehend that it's perfectly alright to be gay. I came to that conclusion on my own. I instinctively knew that people like you were wrong when they said that homosexuality was bad, but hate propaganda by people like you was enough to make me afraid of my own sexuality. I suffered. Your children may or may not be gay, and they may or may not choose to tell you about it. You should give your children more credit. They are smarter than you think. Your religious upbringing will not "spare" them from becoming gay. It will only intimidate them if they are indeed gay, and they may hate you for it. That also goes for the "right" of teachers who are homosexual to wear wedding rings, talk about their homosexual spouses with students and introduce spouses at school functions. Your little Katie will learn in kindergarten that "Mrs." Jones is married to another "Mrs." Jones – and that she can grow up and choose to do the same if she wishes. It is, after all, her "right." * Yes, it is. What's your point? If you think anyone is going to "turn gay" just because it's "acceptable" you're wrong. Grade-school and middle-school anti-bias units will now crank into high gear the focus on homosexuals and cross-dressers. Because marriage is now legalized, children will be persuaded in misleading material that anyone who objects to homosexual behavior is not simply biased, that person is breaking the law. The take-away for students from these shallow lessons will be that it is illegal to criticize homosexuality, and every person young or old should be protected from the mean conservatives. Standing up for equality in America will translate into the freedom to practice homosexuality for every student who "discovers" such inclinations. * There will always be people who object to homosexuality, as there are, believe it or not, people who object to heterosexuality. Personally I object to the word sexuality itself, as it implies that there are two sexes and there are limits and boundaries between them. There are none. Many fail to see that. * Standing up for equality in America will translate into the freedom to practice homosexuality for every student who discovers such inclinations. I repeated your sentence because it makes my point, not yours. I removed the quotes from the word 'discovers', however. I assume you used the quotes to imply that it is possible to brainwash heterosexual kids into becoming homosexual. It is not possible. Sex education will be required to take into account this new form of "family" and abstinence – until – marriage education will take a twisted new turn. Suddenly, it will be co-opted by Planned Parenthood and other liberal activists with their own unique spin. Every student will be taught that, of course, abstinence until heterosexual or homosexual marriage is fine if that's one's choice. But since pregnancy isn't a danger for homosexuals, sex can be a wonderful option for younger and younger people – as long as it's carried out "responsibly," of course – like brushing one's teeth. To not teach this would be, again "discrimination" based on sexual orientation. Condoms are always available for those who can't wait. Let's show you third-graders how this condom fits on this banana, just so you are prepared. * I'm reading this paragraph over and over in utter disbelief. It feels like you are not a real person, just a machine that spews out random prejudices and misinformations about homosexuality. I'm tempted not to reply to this paragraph, but I don't want to make it seem like I cannot counter it. Let me work out your implications here, though. It seems like you're trying to say that you don't approve of condoms. Have you ever heard of a place called "Africa"? No, it's not a state on the east coast. Just making sure you know what I'm talking about since it seems you have grown up in a huge, hollow bible that had no windows into the outside world. In Africa, the entire continent is sinking. A massive portion of the adult population in many countries suffer from AIDS epidemics. (Yes, through _hetero_sexual unprotected intercourse). But I suppose you don't care because they're not American? Whatever happened to the christian view of "loving thy neighbour"? In your perspective, does "neighbour" only apply to member states? * Pregnancy is not a danger for homosexuals, you are correct in that statement. (That's a first.) But condoms should always be used because they are the only way to protect both gay and straight people from catching STDs in intercourse. The vast majority of people have for long been having intercourse before marriage. That will continue to happen regardless of the influence of laws and religious zealots like you. That's why it's important to teach our children about condoms. Would you rather shelter your precious children from this knowledge, only to have them call you up one day many, many years from now and have them tell you that they have just been diagnosed as having HIV? Expect a whole new crop of young adult novels featuring same-sex romance leading to marriage to appear instantly and be adopted just as magically by middle-school and high-school language departments throughout the U.S. Your 13-year-old Kyle will be required to read and give a book report on a novel where Bruce and Jason meet, date and get married. What won't be covered is how Bruce and Jason split up a year later after cheating on each other dozens of times. * You are showing utter ignorance of what homosexuality is and isn't. Homosexuality has no - and I repeat and emphasize - _no_ bearing at all on the personality of anyone, unless the person for whatever reason wishes for it to be so. You, like many other homophobic individuals, only associate "intercourse" with the word "homosexual". Try "relationship" instead. Homosexual couples are just as faithul (and unfaithful!) to their companions as heterosexual couples. Are you forgetting that about a half of your "sacred" christian marriages end in divorce, too? * As for the example about 13-year-old Kyle reading a book about a gay romance - was that supposed to be shocking? Maybe your 13-year-old Kyle could teach you a thing or two about what homosexuality is after reading the book. And it gets better (or worse). This stop-gap standard will last for just a few years, until the inevitable next piece of the puzzle is in place. Hank and Jim will petition the courts to allow Mary, the biological mother of "their" adopted child, to become part of their marriage. After all, what business does the court have in their bedrooms, determining who they have a right to love? Along about this same time, Cindy and her partner, Luke (who is really Lucy, except that she dresses like a man) will demand that the law recognize Luke as a "husband" in spite of her biology. And so will emerge the accompanying new curricular materials reflecting the legalization of group marriage and transgender unions, making sure every U.S. school child knows that these are future options for him, her or them. * This is shock tactics to arouse the conservatives to rally for your cause. You are just making up nonsense without any basis in reality at all. Again you make it sound like being gay is a choice, an option. It's really not. And what is wrong with transgender unions anyway? Are you so hung up on your christian views of the "sacred" marriage that you refuse to respect any differing views? Hang on to your dreams of an universally heterosexual christian world. May I remind you of a historical person by the name of Hitler, though? Somehow your "manifesto" here bears resemblance to the dream that Adolf had, of the supreme arian race. I hope you will be shocked to realize that. In such a legal and educational environment, what happens to religions that don't believe homosexuality is moral? Will those religions and their ancient teachings eventually come before some future Supreme Court and be told that they are guilty of discrimination? That their beliefs are no longer constitutional because of privacy rights? * What are you talking about? Allow me to use another historical reference to decipher the message you are transmitting with less obvious verbiage. The Ku Klux Klan was a religion that didn't believe being black is moral. (Well, not exactly, but the analogy is not broken in any case). Are you saying that the KKK should be a registered, legal and public organization? The Ku Klux Klan is no different than the Catholic church in this sense. (Quote that!) The church isn't supporting the idea that homosexuals should be murdered (or at least we don't know of such plans), but members of their congrigation do murder homosexuals in the name of their God. The church will not allow homosexuals to be priests or other high ranking individuals within the organization. Now, I'm not saying we should hunt down the catholic church. But I'm saying that limits of law must be and will be imposed on churches - their practices and preaching. The church should not be allowed to publicly broadcast hate propaganda against any human (have you heard of the Westboro Baptist Church? That's what the KKK is today). * Think about this quote from Bertrand Russell, and think hard. "The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence that it is not utterly absurd." If this sounds like lunacy, it's because it is. What we do in the bedroom has always been public, in the form of what we call a family. It becomes what we teach and pass on as wisdom to our children. And if we aren't sure what "wisdom" entails, by golly, the homosexual activists are here to tell us. * Indeed we are. And there's not a damn thing you can do to stop us. Such is life. |
