Are they discriminated against or are
they seeking preferential treatment?

In case you missed it, I’ve just described the cry of the homosexual and lesbian communities, commonly referred to as “gays” (a misnomer, for there’s nothing gay about sexual perversions). They cry out in the ears of politicians, school boards, college presidents, mayors and other civil officials:

“We were born this way! We can’t help it! We want recognition and acceptance. We want to teach your children and legislate your laws. We want to help select your school’s curriculum. We insist on giving your children the option of choosing between homosexuality and heterosexuality; therefore, we want to present them with information about the homosexual lifestyle. We are normal. We want to sit on School Boards and help make decisions that will affect your children for generations to come.”

I say, this is the cry of the homosexual community. And America has given in to them. The homosexual movement is similar to the demands of a political dictator in that the more you give him, the more he insists on having. So I pose the question again: If voyeurs, exhibitionists, pedophiles, and those who enjoy sex with animals were to make the same cry as homosexuals, would you give in to them? And if you did not give in to them, would you then be guilty of denying them their civil rights? No, you would not. Yet, supporters of homosexuals yield to their ultimatums on the assumption, “We don’t want to deny them their civil rights.” Let’s have a clear understanding of the homosexual’s civil rights.

School Boards may decide not to hire homosexuals to teach their students. They prefer that sexual debasers not be placed in a position that might influence their students toward immorality or aberrant sexual activity, just as the same School Boards may prefer that voyeurs and exhibitionists not be placed in a position that might sway their students toward abnormal forms of sexuality. The principle works both ways. In either case, no one’s civil rights are breached, and no one is constitutionally discriminated against. School Boards and employers must be granted the freedom to choose, else their civil rights are violated.

In the same vein, homosexuals can be denied the same rights, not because of prejudice or hatred, but because of behavior. Voyeurs and exhibitionists fall into the same class. If we by legislation make homosexuality morally and socially acceptable, by the same process of law voyeurism and exhibitionism can be made socially and morally acceptable.

“Homosexuals have oral sex with almost all of their sexual contacts, and ingest semen from about half of these. Surveys indicate that about ninety percent of gays have engaged in rectal sex, and about two-thirds do it regularly. Tearing or ripping of the anal wall is very common during anal-penile sex, but some go much farther and insert fingers or hand or arm (called ‘fisting’). There are other gay sex practices equally repulsive, but this gives some idea of why they are called ‘queer.’ ”

Dr. Melvin Anchell writes:

“Never before have children and youngsters been so continuously exposed to perverted sexual activity as they are today. Worsening these seductions is a culture that regards perversion as normal and in which the rights of sexual perverts are upheld at the expense of those who are not perverted.”

I disagree. Were we born with evil desires or were they developed somewhere along the line of life? That some people are sexually deformed at birth, no one will deny, just as others are mentally and physically deformed. It seems only right at this point, then, to make a distinction between birth deformities and desires. For if God instills evil desires in a person at birth, or even prior to his being born, how can He be a righteous God?

Yes, of course, we all have evil desires. I do not believe they were instilled by a righteous God but instead developed and cultivated at some point in early life—whether by environmental factors or by visual and actual contact with the many facets of sin.

The apostle Paul tells us to “put to death evil desires” (Col. 3:5). In another place, he speaks of “weak-willed women who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires” (2 Timothy 3:6). The corruption of the world is caused by evil desires (2 Peter 1:4). Peter implies that scoffers develop “their own evil desires” (2 Peter 3:3). Grumblers and faultfinders develop “their own evil desires” (Jude 16).

The bottom line is that evil desires are developed and amplified after birth. They are not birth defects! For if evil desires are implanted by God prior to birth—and only He is able to implant them—child molesters and rapists were born with the desire to molest children and rape. This translates into the truth that God, then, would at least be partly responsible for the molestation of children and rape—plus all other crimes.

Let’s place the blame for evil desires on Satan, not on our Holy God. The prophet Zechariah says it is the Lord “who forms the spirit of man within him” (12:1). If man is instilled with evil desires, he has an evil spirit—even before he is born. And since God forms the spirit within him, the conclusion follows that God forms an evil spirit within man. I cannot accept this premise. Homosexuality, lying, stealing, and hate are learned behaviors. And what is learned can be unlearned

Let it be understood that it is because of principle, not hatred, that many of us are doing battle with the homosexual community. We deplore the perversion, not the perverter; the act, not the actor; the practice, not the practitioner.

“A team of researchers at the University of Western Ontario in Canada has found no evidence of the so-called ‘gay gene.’ ”

There’s more to the research, but this will suffice to demonstrate that “gay genes” is a bogus claim—promoted by the homosexual community and their disciples. You see, if we blame genes for one sexual perversion, we can blame genes for all sexual perversions. In truth, we can blame genes for all sex crimes—regardless of severity. The “gay gene” claim simply won’t float. It drowns in its own inconsistency.

The word “detestable” is the most negative adjective used in heaven’s testimony, the scriptures. It means to dislike intensely. This is how God feels about homosexuality.

As most of you probably know, the homosexual community attempts to place the blame for the AIDS epidemic upon the shoulders of the heterosexual community. Such is not the case, however. Listen up.

According to medical sources, the origin of AIDS has been traced to a French-Canadian Airline Steward by the name of Gaetan Dugas, who led an active life of sodomy. In “And The Band Played On,” it is revealed that he spent many nights at bathhouses and had at least 250 sexual encounters a year. He was active in homosexuality at least 10 years and had at least 2,500 sexual partners (page 83).

When research was completed, it was established that Dugas could be linked to 40 patients with AIDS in 10 cities. He was marked on the chart as “Patient Zero” of the GRID plague. What does GRID stand for? You might be interested in knowing that AIDS was originally called Gay Related Immuno-deficiency Disease, or GRID. Homosexual lobbyists and the liberal press managed to get it changed to AIDS, which in turn lifted some of the blame off the shoulders of homosexuals.

The report says that at least 40 of the 248 homosexual men diagnosed with GRID in the USA, as of April 12, 1982, “either had had sex with Dugas or had sex with someone who had” (page 147). “A CDA statistician...figured that the chance [of Dugas being the first carrier] did not approach zero—it was zero” (page 147). I recommend that you purchase the book, whose author is journalist Randy Shilts.

Dugas has long since died, but AIDS is raging and has now penetrated deep into the heterosexual community. Central and southern Africa are losing a big percentage of their population due to this plague. Two-thirds of the world’s known AIDS cases are found in central and southern Africa. Medical scientists are now alleging the AIDS virus can be traced to the chimpanzee. Regardless of its genesis, the truth remains that homosexuals and homosexual behavior introduced and dispersed the plague to the human population. I’m inclined to agree with a fellow author who recently researched AIDS. He said before the epidemic loses its punch of its own accord, only a few million people will be left in America. “And the band played on.”
