All Americans should shudder when homosexual activists routinely use the tactics of threats, intimidation, blackmail and deception to strangle a free and open exchange on homosexual behavior.
We believe the ideas of gay activists are dangerous to society at large and to the family in particular. Nevertheless, their advocates seem to be everywhere at once. The gay lifestyle is aggressively promoted throughout culture, especially in television sitcoms, Hollywood movies and on university campuses.
That agenda includes teaching prohomosexual concepts in the public schools, redefining the family to represent "any circle of people who love each other," approval of homosexual adoption, legitimizing same-sex marriage, and securing special rights for those who identify themselves as gay. Those ideas must be opposed, even though to do so is to expose oneself to the charge of being "homophobic."
| How would you respond if, without notice to you, your child was required to attend a school assembly where homosexual and lesbian sex acts were graphically described -- and your child was not permitted to leave? |
| The battle over gay marriages has moved to California, where homosexual activists are vigorously seeking to implement their agenda. Once again, their ultimate goal is "gay marriage." If it becomes legal in California, gay activists will have achieved most of their objectives in one fell swoop. And as our most populous state goes, so goes the nation. |
| Studies also show a high degree of destructive behavior among homosexuals, including alcohol, drug abuse and emotional and physical violence. |
| There are in fact only two traits which all homosexuals share in common: erotic attraction to members of the same sex, and same-gender sexual behavior. Neither of these traits are innate or immutable. Both are subject to rational moral censure and, therefore, do not constitute a sufficient basis for legal protection. |
