The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country.

The-Kinsey-Syndrome

The Kinsey Syndrome is must-viewing for anyone who cares about our rapidly declining culture. The film is central to the curriculum for "Sexual Behavior and the Law" -- a class I teach at Liberty University School of Law. As the documentary so masterfully illustrates, there is a pre-Kinsey and a post-Kinsey America. Unfortunately, we live in the latter. All our major elitist institutions: the courts; the media; academia; the entertainment industry and others -- have relied upon Kinsey's wholly discredited research to move America away from adherence to the Judeo-Christian sexual ethic, and toward a secular-humanist, morally relative worldview. The Kinsey Syndrome has helped to expose Alfred Kinsey and his life's work as pure fraud." Matt Barber, Associate Dean and Adjunct Law Professor, Liberty University School of Law
"The Bible tells us to expose the fruitless works of darkness. The documentary, The Kinsey Syndrome does just that in painstaking detail. Each chapter of this video documentary addresses a different aspect of the work of the pseudo-scientist Alfred Kinsey whose fraudulent data laid the cancerous foundation for sex education, perversion, pedophilia, pornography, and the corruption of our culture."

Dr. Ted Baehr, MOVIEGUIDE review
The work of Kinsey is currently being promoted by the homosexual community the fact is he believed that children were sexual beings and experimented by sexually abusing them. He went as far as raping babies and yet Hollywood glamorised his work in a film with Liam Neeson. The American government now officially call children sexual beings there are calls to rename pedeophiles "minor attracted" and to give them treatment programmes instead of jail. A recent doctor who was an advisor to the British Government was sacked when he released a report linking pedeophilia with homosexuality. An advisor to the Scottish government who was the head of the LGBT was jailed for raping a baby this caused the government great embarrassment..This is just the beginning it will soon be a hate crime to even suggest there is a link and it will be you facing jail while pedeophiles walk free to stalk children. Yet we sit silent as our children are being fed a sexual agenda by state schools and the media. Research the anti-defamation league they are the authors of all hate crime legislation they openly admit their hatred of Christianity and their wish to destroy the family unit. It is time to look at the facts stand up and speak the truth. Adults can do what they want in their private life it is none of our business but when they start trying to pollute innocent children's thinking then we must act. I am not saying only homosexuals are pedeophiles that would be a nonsense as there are examples of heterosexual pedeophiles. Only highlighting the facts that a link exists. True Christians should love their enemies and bless those who curse them and have compassion on the lost.

Obama: Sex Ed for Kindergartners ‘Is the Right Thing to Do’

The Chicago Public Schools this year are mandating that the district’s kindergarten classes include sex education, fulfilling a proposal President Barack Obama supported in 2003 when he served in the Illinois state senate and later defended when he ran for president in the 2008 election cycle.

At a Planned Parenthood convention at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Washington, D.C., on July 17, 2007, a teenage girl who said she worked as a sex-education “peer educator” in the D.C. public schools asked then-U.S. Sen. Obama what he would do to encourage the teaching of “medically accurate, age-appropriate, and responsible sex education.”

Sex education for kindergarteners has only one agenda

The Chicago Public Schools are this year mandating that kindergartners receive sex education lessons. Opponents say it's a way of exposing them to the homosexual lifestyle.

The CEO of the Chicago Public Schools is emphasizing that this curriculum will be age appropriate. But Laurie Higgins of the Illinois Family Institute says that is misleading.

“What all the talk about is that from the perspective of those on the left, there is virtually nothing that is considered inappropriate,” she points out. “But they believe that it’s appropriate to talk to kindergarteners about diverse family structures. And what that means is talking about families that are led by homosexuals.”

She says that sex education lessons for young students just beginning school are out of place.

“Five-year-olds are not sexual beings, except in the world of progressives,” she says. “They’re not thinking about sex, they’re not having sexual feelings. And so this is completely unnecessary, and parents are capable of handling this.”

She says parents of Chicago-area public school students should opt their children out of any lessons involving homosexuality or gender confusion.

This is just a straight up product of Kinsey, i bet it will come out soon that this "judge" is a pedo also

It Seems the Former Teacher Who Received Just 30 Days in Prison for Raping Suicidal Teen Won’t Get Off That Easy

A Montana judge under fire for his comments about a 14-year-old victim in a schoolhouse **** case has ordered a new sentencing hearing for the former teacher who received just 30 days in prison for the crime.
 
In setting the hearing for Friday afternoon, District Judge G. Todd Baugh said Tuesday that state law appears to require a two-year mandatory minimum prison term for Stacey Rambold, 54, of Billings.
 
Rambold last week was sentenced to 15 years with all but 31 days suspended and a one-day credit given for time-served. He began serving his monthlong term last week at the state prison in Deer Lodge.
 
“In the Court’s opinion, imposing a sentence which suspends more than the mandatory minimum would be an illegal sentence,” Baugh wrote.

But in a strange twist, Yellowstone County Attorney Scott Twito said Baugh may lack authority to impose a longer sentence at this point. That’s because state law says an illegal sentence must be handled through the appeal process.
 
The judge has faced widespread condemnation from women’s rights activists, elected officials and others for the light sentence and for saying Rambold’s 14-year-old victim, Cherise Moralez, was “older than her chronological age” and asserting that she had some control over her months-long relationship with Rambold.
 
The judge later apologized for his comments, although activists who have called for him to resign said an apology is not enough.
 
Moralez killed herself before Rambold’s case came to trial. That left prosecutors without their main witness and led them to strike a deal with Rambold that allowed him to avoid prison until he violated the terms of his court-ordered release.

Court records show the sentence Baugh handed down was in line with what Rambold had requested.
 
Prosecutors, who had sought 20 years prison with 10 years suspended, already were considering an appeal, citing the two-year minimum requirement.
 
Twito said he planned to be in Baugh’s courtroom Friday but was unsure how the hearing might play out given that state law says illegal sentences must be addressed through an appeal.
 
“I’ve done this a long time and I’m in an area I have not been in before,” said Twito, now in his 16th year as a prosecutor.
 
If his reading of the law stands up, that could give the defendant the advantage in Friday’s hearing.
 
Twito said members of his office, along with Rambold’s defense attorney, Jay Lansing, met informally with Baugh last week to discuss the case.
 
Baugh said in Tuesday’s order that the defendant’s presentencing memorandum claimed the minimum mandatory for sexual intercourse without consent was 30 days, and the state did not object until after the sentence was handed down.
 
Lansing could not be immediately reached for comment Tuesday.
 
Twito said his office will continue to pursue a possible appeal if the sentence remains unchanged. A final decision would be made in conjunction with the appellate division of the Montana attorney general’s office.
 
Hundreds of protesters rallied outside the Yellowstone County Court House last week to call for Baugh’s resignation. News of Friday’s hearing in the case did little to sway those critics.

“The judge cannot take back the words he said when he blamed the victim. As far as we’re concerned, Judge Baugh has lost the trust of this community,” said Eran Thompson with Not in Our Town, a Billings group that promotes diversity and works against hate crimes.
 
The 71-year-old judge was first elected to the bench in 1984 and has been re-elected every six years since without an opponent. He’s up for re-election in 2014.
 
Baugh said in response to the criticism that Rambold’s sentence was based on the defendant’s violation of an earlier deal he made with prosecutors, rather than the original crime. He also claimed that his remarks about Moralez were “irrelevant” and did not factor into his sentence.

Yeah, the sodomy agenda didn't exactly happen overnight(meaning it didn't exactly come about during the Clinton/Obama years, like the "religious right" wants to make you to believe) - it started a LONG time ago with the "sexual revolution"(among other things).

IOW, how can anyone expose gay marriage, but en yet the lost world has no problems with fornication and cohabitations(heterosexuals outside of marriage, that is)? Yeah, get the beam out of your own eye first!

‘We Like Them Young:’ Video of University Students’ Chant About Sex With Minors Incites Outrage

 A online video capturing Canadian university students happily chanting about male classmates engaging in sexual activity with minors has incited outrage from viewers worldwide.

The chant, which has reportedly been used for the past five years at Saint Mary’s University (SMU) in Halifax, Nova Scotia, recently surfaced on YouTube and other outlets, where it has produced both shock and anger.

“SMU boys, we like them young,” the chant begins as the students then proceed to turn the word “young” into an acronym. “Y is for your sister. O is for oh-so-tight. U is for underage. N is for no consent. G is for grab that [expletive].”

Officials at the school state that the incident occurred on Labor Day at an event called “Turf Burn,” which serves as a welcome for freshman during frosh week.

“We were horrified. We couldn’t believe that this was happening on our campus,” Steve Proctor, communications manager for SMU, told Global News Canada. “It was wholly unacceptable.”

He stated that he immediately set up a meeting with the student group that organized the event to express concern. Proctor, who said that he was initially angered by the footage, told reporters that he believes the students didn’t realize what they were saying.

“I don’t believe that there was anyone in the group that understood what they were doing,” he stated. “[T]here were people who were crying when they realized exactly what they had done. … There was no malice involved. They just got caught up in a thing.”
Connect with Christian News

However, student Jeannie Denyes disagrees that her classmates were unaware of the meaning of the chant. She said that she considered leaving the university after learning of the incident.

“I cried for three hours last night after I saw this. I am a **** survivor. I have been affected by sexual violence against underaged minors,” she told CBC News. “As a Saint Mary’s student, I don’t feel this is entertainment. I don’t feel this is something they didn’t know better than to say.”

Proctor said that officials asked students how the matter could be rectified, and they suggested that all 80 student leaders be mandated to enroll in sensitivity training classes and also attend an upcoming sexual assault conference at St. Francis Xavier University. At this time, no other disciplinary action will be taken, but university President Colin Dodds said in a statement this week that he is taking “measures to ensure it does not happen in the future.”

“I accept that I and the university administration have a role to oversee and guide student leaders,” he said. “We failed in that responsibility.”

Viewers throughout the nation have likewise expressed outrage.

“I’m surprised that this chant has been used for years and it’s taken ’til now for the university and students to realize it’s inappropriate,” commented one viewer with the screen name Dolphindoll. ”I would tend to think the only reason that it has been deemed wrong now is because a video was made and released, causing it to be seen publicly. Otherwise, the practice of using it would have likely gone on for many more years.”

“I don’t know what’s more awful: the guys cheering it or the girls beside them laughing,” added another named Chrissie. “Definitely not cool. Get some integrity. You are in university; act like it.”

From a Catholic University they're doing so? No surprise here, I guess. I wonder if Life Site News is going to make a big fuss over this! Roll Eyes

Atheist Richard Dawkins Stirs Outrage: ‘Light Pedophilia’ Didn’t Cause Me ‘Lasting Damage’

A prominent atheist has stirred international outage following his comments regarding children who are victims of ‘light pedophilia.’
 
Richard Dawkins, known for his book The God Delusion, was recently featured in an interview in The Times, during which he spoke of his own sexual abuse as a child, which he said had no long-lasting affect upon his life.
 
“One day – I must have been about 11 – there was a master in the gallery with me. He pulled me onto his knee and put his hand inside my shorts. He did no more than have a little feel, but it was extremely disagreeable … as well as embarrassing,” he told the publication. “As soon as I could wriggle off his lap, I ran to tell my friends, many of whom had had the same experience with him. I don’t think he did any of us any lasting damage, but some years later he killed himself.”
 
However, when Dawkins shared his thoughts about degrees of pedophilia, the changing times and not treating all types of inappropriate touching alike, readers expressed shock and disappointment.

“I am very conscious that you can’t condemn people of an earlier era by the standards of ours,”"Just as we don’t look back at the 18th and 19th centuries and condemn people for racism in the same way as we would condemn a modern person for racism, I look back a few decades to my childhood and see things like caning, like mild pedophilia, and can’t find it in me to condemn it by the same standards as I or anyone would today.”
 
“[T]he most notorious cases of pedophilia involve **** and even murder, and because we attach the label ‘pedophilia’ to the same things when they’re just mild touching up, we must beware of lumping all pedophiles into the same bracket,” Dawkins opined.
 
On Tuesday, Dawkins took to Twitter in an attempt to clarify his remarks

“‘Mild touching up’ is bad,” he wrote. “Raping [an] 8-year-old wife to death is worse. Worse? That’s putting it mildly. Quantitative judgment vs. black/white.”
 
“Is anyone seriously denying that raping an 8-year-old to death is worse than putting a hand inside a child’s clothes?” he wrote again later. “Are you that absolute?”
 
On Thursday, Dawkins also penned an article explaining his words.
 
“To excuse pedophiliac assaults in general, or to make light of the horrific experiences of others, was a thousand miles from my intention,” he wrote. “I cannot know for certain that my companions’ experiences with the same teacher were are brief as mine, and theirs may have been recurrent where mine was not.”

“If I am wrong about any particular individual; if any of my companions really was traumatized by the abuse long after it happened; if, perhaps it happened many times and amounted to more than the single disagreeable but brief fondling that I endured, I apologize,” Dawkins said.
 
However, a number of child protection groups remain outraged at Dawkins’ comments. Peter Watt of the National Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Children said that the atheist’s remarks slighted others who have suffered from the memories of their abuse.
 
“Mr. Dawkins seems to think that because a crime was committed a long time ago we should judge it in a different way,” he told Religion News Service. “But we know that the victims of sexual abuse suffer the same effects whether it was 50 years ago or yesterday.”

It seems like what these God-hating reprobates have in common is pedophilia. Former Freemasons that converted to Christians have said how when they were masons, they had these sexual thoughts over young boys.

Chinese Police Rescue 92 Kidnapped Children

China's state media say police have rescued 92 children and two women who were kidnapped to be sold by a human trafficking gang.


http://www.voanews.com/content/chinese-police-rescue-92-kidnapped-children/1758907.html

China's state media say police have rescued 92 children and two women who were kidnapped to be sold by a human trafficking gang.
 
Xinhua said Friday authorities have arrested 301 suspects in connection with the case.
 
Officials say police from eleven provinces were involved in the operation to break up the massive trafficking network that stole and bought children in Yunnan and Sichuan provinces to be sold in other regions.
 
Child abduction is a major problem in China. A strict one-child policy and a traditional preference for boys have contributed to a rise in the trafficking of children and women in recent years.
 
The U.S. State Department downgraded China this year to rank among the world's worst human traffickers. The 2013 Trafficking in Persons Report found that although Beijing has created better awareness of the danger of human trafficking, authorities are still not making significant efforts to tackle the problem.
 
Estimates put the number of children lost every year in China to trafficking at 200,000. Only 0.1 percent of trafficked children are found and returned to their families.
 
Four years ago, the Chinese Ministry of Public Security launched a nationwide anti-trafficking campaign and started creating a nationwide DNA database to help with investigations.

Parents warned about **** in schools
 
Teachers may introduce profiles from 'LGBT History' month campaign



President Obama already has declared June to be homosexual “Pride” month, but “gay” activists now are designating October “LGBT History Month.”
 
The move has prompted a pro-family organization in California to issue a warning to parents across the United States about the possibility their children would be confronted with explicit pornography in their public schools this month.
 





Teachers, they explain, could introduce material that promotes homosexuality.
 
The homosexual-rights group Equality Forum, which is promoting LGBT History Month, is profiling various homosexuals and lesbians for each day of the month, including some whose work can accurately be described as triple-X rated.
 
Many schools plan to incorporate LGBT History Month into lessons.
 
“It is deeply disturbing that the organizers of LGBT History Month think our kids should be celebrating homoerotic authors and **** producers,” stated Brad Dacus, president of Pacific Justice Institute. “This should be a serious wake-up call for anyone who still thinks gay history in schools is a good idea.”
 
PJI has warned parents to take immediate action to prevent their children from being blindsided this month by “explicit and highly objectionable material.”
 
“A patchwork” of schools, districts and individual teachers nationwide are expected to promote LGBT History Month to students, PJI said.
 
On Oct. 18, Equality Forum will feature “Tom of Finland,” who has a foundation promoting his explicit sex images, “erotic art galleries” and “artist and museum links” that include explicit **** images.
 
Also featured, on the 10th, will be “Patrick Califia,” born a woman and now described as a “bisexual transman.”
 
The writer of a sex column, Califia also is known for erotic fiction.
 
Then there’s the role model of the late Axel Axgil, a Danish advocate for homosexuals who was convicted on pornography charges for selling pictures of **** men.
 
And there’s Simon Nkoli, who promoted homosexuality in South Africa and at one point was jailed on claims he killed a man by throwing a rock during a protest. The charges eventually were dropped.
 
“Many parents will no doubt be alarmed when they see some of the characters being highlighted this year,” PJI’s statement said.
 
The group is urging parents to ask their children’s teachers whether there will be any reference to LGBT History Month.
 
“If so, parents should confront the teacher, principal and school board members with the reality of the individuals being presented as role models this year,” PJI said.
 
“Besides the X-rated inclusions, this year’s list continues a trend from previous years of including a drag queen, current television personalities, foreign political figures, and activists. The list also appears to be more targeted this year at ethnic and religious groups that have traditionally opposed homosexual behavior, highlighting several black and Asian LGBT figures, as well as a former Mormon,” the group said.
 
“This is exactly why we fought California’s gay history mandate a couple of years ago,” noted PJI Staff Attorney Matthew McReynolds. “We knew this was not about real history; it was about pushing a political agenda and sexualizing kids at increasingly young ages. It is completely irresponsible for the organizers of this event to promote individuals whose work is utterly inappropriate for minors.”
 
The institute said school districts from California to Florida have adopted LGBT History Month. Two years ago in New Jersey, it created controversy for Republican Gov. Chris Christie when he suggested a teacher should be fired for posting objections to it on her personal Facebook page.
 
California’s latest sex indoctrination law requires schools to allow students to choose which gender they prefer.
 
Karen England of Capitol Resource Institute said her group is working on a newly launched initiative to overturn the law that will need the signatures of some 500,000 voters.
 
The goal is to veto the “extremist” language adopted by majority Democrats in the state legislature and signed by Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown that opens public school locker rooms to students of either sex.
 
Apparently, students will only need to tell school officials which gender they feel like. England affirmed that the law has no provision for certifying that someone is gender-disoriented or gender-confused before being given the rights provided in the new law.
 
See what’s going on at PrivacyforallStudents.com.
 
England said parents in other states also should be concerned.
 
“We’re not like Las Vegas. What happens in California spreads to other states,” she said.
 
The law, AB 1266, adopted during this year’s legislative session, provides that students be given access to gender-segregated facilities according to their “gender identity.” It’s the latest in a long list of sex indoctrination laws adopted in California, including one that requires a day of recognition for Harvey Milk, the homosexual politician who also was an advocate of infamous cult leader Jim Jones.
 
English told WND the law is a direct assault on parental rights, because it allows schools to treat their children as members of either gender, lets them send them to locker rooms or restrooms that may be in conflict with their physical gender and keep all such information away from parents.
 
“This is as far as [lawmakers have] ever gone. This is the most extreme. Parents and teachers are absolutely outraged,” she said.
 
“Not one lawmaker campaigned on allowing boys in the girls locker room and restrooms,” she said. “Nor is there one who, I think, will, or will be able to stand and explain why they think this is a good idea.”

FYI, I've been studying about what mysticism is recently - when this word is used in Churchianity/pagan religion circles, they usually talk about their pagan ritual practices(ie-using yoga methods, walking labyrinths, etc in order to "get close to God").

However, the Webster's 1828 Dictionary has this to say...

MYS'TICISM, n. Obscurity of doctrine.

1. The doctrine of the Mystics, who profess a pure, sublime and perfect devotion, wholly disinterested, and maintain that they hold immediate intercourse with the divine Spirit.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obscurity also means darkness - pt being that when you look at the agendas being pushed on our youth in these public schools, they are doing just that, deceiving them in darkness. For example, when I was growing up in the 80's, and then college in the 90's, a lot of these liberal indoctrinations like self-pride, feminism and environmentalism infiltrated curriculums. And when young kids are being taught it over and over and over again, they are going to buy into it.

2Cor_4:4  In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.


Pt being that it seems like whatever is not of sound doctrine, is NOT of our Lord Jesus Christ.

1Tim 4:12  Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
1Ti 4:13  Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.

If You Learned Your Kid Was in a School Play Containing Bestiality and Incest, How Would You React?

Let’s say your house is humming along in first weeks of a brand-new high school year, and one day you find out your kid’s in an acting class that’s putting on a play with some questionable content.
 
Like man-in-love-with-a-goat questionable. Like bestiality questionable.
 
Incest, too. And perhaps unsurprisingly, other sexually explicit content and a fair dose of swear words.
 
All acted out and starring teenagers.
 
That’s the news many parents received when it came to light that drama teacher Andrew Cupo of Cactus Shadows High School in Scottsdale, Ariz., introduced students in an advanced acting class to an absurdist play called “The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia?” by Edward Albee.

In the Tony Award-winning play — which students performed in class rather than in public — a middle-aged man with a wife and teenage son admits he’s in love with a goat named Sylvia with whom he’s had sex, the Arizona Republic reports, adding that the play also explores themes of tolerance, morality, and revenge.
 
So the Cave Creek Unified School District governing board entertained two hours of public comment about the matter, and the Republic reports that while three parents and one student spoke against the play Tuesday night, about three dozen students and parents spoke in favor of it, some adding that those opposed added fuel to the fire by not speaking to Cupo or the school principal first.
 
“My daughter was not negatively impacted by the play but she was negatively impacted by being asked in the office if she acted out this play and things she never would have thought of,” said one parent, Sharon Smith.

Jacob Emnett is in Cupo’s class and said he was called to the office and “confronted” by parents calling the play into question: “…We were asked what we thought of Mr. Cupo teaching bestiality. Ironic that they spoke to us of bestiality without the consent of our parents — the same act they condemn Mr. Cupo for. Where a few words or an e-mail would suffice, those who stand against him sought to tear him down.”
 
Elissa Ericson, head of the fine arts department at Cactus Shadows, tells the Republic that Cupo warned students several times about the explicit content in “The Goat” and offered several opportunities to opt out and study an alternate script. In addition, Ericson notes, parents sign a syllabus at the start of the semester which includes a statement that “students may be exposed to stories or characters that express views and beliefs that differ from their own or those of their parents.”
 
That wasn’t good enough for parent Guy McAtee, who told the governing board members he assumed they vetted curriculum content.
 
“Having signed an acknowledgement of the course curriculum is in no way authorization for material of this nature to be approved,” McAtee said, who then made a blistering point.
 
“I’m sure that since it’s appropriate material, that the language I’m about to use will be approved by the school board,” he said before launching into a passage that included several vulgar sexual expressions.
 
“That’s offensive to me,” he noted to the board, adding that such content is inappropriate for high school classes.
 
To that end nine parents filed a report with the Scottsdale Police Department in regard to the issue, reports KNXV-TV in Phoenix, and as district policy dictates, Cupo was placed on paid administrative leave.
 
Which doesn’t sit well with many of his students, who planned a peaceful protest Friday at Cactus Shadows during which they’ll don his signature bow tie as well as their own homemade T-shirts emblazoned with the Twitter hashtag #freecupo.

Left's new crusade: Adult-kid sex
 
Exclusive: Matt Barber exposes 'progressive' effort to roll-back laws against pedophilia


So much for the left’s “consenting adults” rhetoric on sex. Forever the consummate conservationists, our self-described “progressive” friends at the ACLU, MSNBC and elsewhere have been ramping-up efforts to downsize from “consenting adults” to merely “consenting” – a far less cumbersome qualifier in the noble struggle for unrestrained sexual license.
 
Tolerating “intergenerational romance” for “minor-attracted” adults is all the rage these days.
 
Ever hear of Kaitlyn Hunt? Over the past year or so this poor, misunderstood lesbian woman’s “anti-gay persecution” has become a cause célčbre among “gay rights” activists and other left-wing purveyors of perversion.
 
Despite mass rallies and online petitions signed by hundreds-of-thousands of the uber-”tolerant,” the clearly “homophobic” Florida criminal justice system has, nonetheless, convicted Ms. Hunt of multiple felonies for sexually assaulting – repeatedly – a 14-year-old girl.
 
Puritans.
 
Oh, sure, her minor victim allegedly “consented” to what the “Free Kate” crowd has portrayed as a harmless tryst – but, of course, by law children below the age of consent cannot consent to sex with adults. Period.
 
Still, the “progressive” establishment evidently felt that, for whatever reason, this was their hill to die on – this was the case that might help them realize the historical “gay rights” goal of rolling-back most, if not all, age of consent laws – statutes designed to protect children from adult sexual predators like, well, Kate.
 
Veteran journalist Robert Stacy McCain has covered the Hunt case extensively. In a recent piece for the American Spectator headlined “Kaitlyn Hunt is guilty and, yes, there is a movement to ‘normalize pedophilia,’” McCain writes: “Kaitlyn Hunt is a criminal. We can state that as a Neutral Objective Fact, now that the 19-year-old former cheerleader has pleaded ‘no contest’ to multiple felonies related to her sexual affair with a minor. What remains is the question of what her plea in a Florida courtroom Thursday means for what Rush Limbaugh has called the movement to ‘normalize pedophilia.”‘
 
Here’s the answer: There is no question. There is categorically a movement to normalize pedophilia. I’ve witnessed it firsthand and, despite “progressive” protestations to the contrary, the “**** rights” movement is inexorably linked to the so-called “gay rights” movement.
 
Two years ago I – along with the venerable child advocate Dr. Judith Reisman – attended a Maryland conference hosted by the **** group B4U-ACT. Around 50 individuals were in attendance, including a number of admitted pedophiles (or “minor-attracted persons,” as they euphemistically prefer).
 
Also present were a few self-described “gay activists” and several supportive mental-health professionals. World renowned “sexologist” Dr. Fred Berlin of Johns Hopkins University gave the keynote address, opening with: “I want to completely support the goal of B4U-ACT.”
 
Here are some highlights from the conference:
 •Pedophiles are “unfairly stigmatized and demonized” by society.
 •“We are not required to interfere with or inhibit our child’s sexuality.”
 •“Children are not inherently unable to consent” to sex with an adult.
 •An adult’s desire to have sex with children is “normative.”
 •“These things are not black and white; there are various shades of gray.”
 •A consensus belief by both speakers and pedophiles in attendance was that, because it vilifies MAPs, pedophilia should be removed as a mental disorder from the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or DSM, in the same manner homosexuality was removed in 1973.
 •Dr. Fred Berlin acknowledged that it was political activism, similar to the incremental strategy witnessed at the conference, rather than a scientific calculus that successfully led to the declassification of homosexuality as a mental disorder: The reason “homosexuality was taken out of DSM is that people didn’t want the government in the bedroom,” he said.
 •The DSM ignores that pedophiles “have feelings of love and romance for children” in the same way adults love one another.
 •The DSM should “focus on the needs” of the ****, and should have “a minimal focus on social control,” rather than obsessing about the “need to protect children.”
 •Self-described “gay activist” and speaker Jacob Breslow said that children can properly be “the object of our attraction.” He further objectified children, suggesting that pedophiles needn’t gain consent from a child to have sex with “it” any more than we need consent from a shoe to wear it. He then used graphic, slang language to favorably describe the act of climaxing (ejaculating) “on or with” a child. No one in attendance objected to this explicit depiction of child sexual assault. There was even laughter.
 
You may think that such abject evil simply represents the fringe of today’s sexual “progressivism.” It doesn’t. It represents the honest.
 
Consider, for instance, that during Obama’s first term, the official website for the Department of Health and Human Services linked to “parenting tips” that referenced children as “sexual beings” and suggested that they should experiment with homosexuality and ****.
 
You may also recall that Mr. Obama appointed Kevin Jennings, founder of the “Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network,” or GLSEN, to the post of “safe schools czar.” The position is now defunct, ostensibly due to national outrage over Jennings’ appointment.
 
In keeping with the thinly veiled goals of B4U-ACT, GLSEN seems to be “running interference” for pedophiles, having tacitly advocated adult-child sex through its “recommended reading list” for kids.
 
This of no surprise when you consider that one of Jennings’ ideological heroes was Harry Hay, the “founding father” of homosexual activism. “One of the people that’s always inspired me is Harry Hay,” he has said glowingly.
 
Was Harry Hay fringe? No, not among “gay” activists. He’s an icon. Again, he was just honest. In 1983, while addressing the **** North American Man/Boy Love Association, or NAM/BLA, Hay said the following:
 

“It seems to me that in the gay community the people who should be running interference for NAM/BLA are the parents and friends of gays. Because if the parents and friends of gays are truly friends of gays, they would know from their gay kids that the relationship with an older man is precisely what 13-, 14-, and 15-year-old kids need more than anything else in the world. And they would be welcoming this, and welcoming the opportunity for young gay kids to have the kind of experience that they would need.”
 
If he were alive today, Harry Hay would likely have led the movement to “free Kate.”
 
And by “free Kate,” he would have meant – and they actually mean – “free us.”
 
And by “free us,” of course, what they really mean is “free children.”

I saw recently how the MPAA(Motion Picture Association of America) has toned down their rules over which films get a PG-13 compared to an R rating. There are a lot of movies in recent years getting a PG-13 rating that would have gotten an R rating in the 80's and 90's.

Pt being that as modern-times have gone on, what was either not tolerated or just merely tolerated back then is now accepted. And we're seeing a lot of this infiltrated to our youth in institutions now.

Child Molestation and the Homosexual Movement

By Steve Baldwin
September 29, 2013

Lately, the gay movement seems to be making large gains in its war on America's Judeo-Christian culture. Gay characters have become the norm on sitcoms; it has become fashionable to attack the Boy Scouts; homosexual propaganda inundates many of our public schools; nearly all the mainstream religious denominations have "revised" their understanding of Biblical teaching concerning homosexuality; and the gay "rights" legislative agenda is succeeding beyond the advocates' wildest imaginations.

And yet the destructive impact homosexuality has upon Western Civilization is rarely discussed by columnists, reporters, religious leaders, politicians or by anyone else for that matter. Even some conservative publications choose to ignore the issue and instead have published articles arguing for greater tolerance of the gay lifestyle.

Indeed, on the homosexual issue, conservatives seem divided between a "live and let live" attitude and one that concludes that the homosexual agenda will have to be curtailed if the Judeo-Christian culture is to survive. However, overwhelming evidence supports the belief that homosexuality is a sexual deviancy often accompanied by disorders that have dire consequences for our culture. A vast amount of data demonstrating the deviant nature of the gay lifestyle is ignored by the media as well as the leadership of the psychological, psychiatric, and medical professions.

It is difficult to convey the dark side of the homosexual culture without appearing harsh. However, it is time to acknowledge that homosexual behavior threatens the foundation of Western civilization ─ the nuclear family. An unmistakable manifestation of the attack on the family unit is the homosexual community's efforts to target children both for their own sexual pleasure and to enlarge the homosexual movement. The homosexual community and its allies in the media scoff at this argument. They insist it is merely a tactic to demonize the homosexual movement. After all, they argue, heterosexual molestation is a far more serious problem.

Unfortunately, the truth is stranger than fiction. Research confirms that homosexuals molest children at a rate vastly higher than heterosexuals, and the mainstream homosexual culture commonly promotes sex with children.[1] Homosexual leaders repeatedly argue for the freedom to engage in consensual sex with children, and blind surveys reveal a shockingly high number of homosexuals admit to sexual contact with minors.[2] Indeed, the homosexual community is driving the worldwide campaign to lower the legal age of consent.

This trend comes at the expense of our children's safety. The incident in Los Angeles involving group homes operated by the Gay and Lesbian Adolescent Social Services (GLASS) exemplifies this danger. GLASS receives taxpayer monies to take in troubled youth referred to them by the social service departments of various southern counties in California.[3]

GLASS's own website should have been warning enough. GLASS believes that some children are born gay (a view not backed by any science) and announced that they target "youth who are confused about their sexual identities."[4] The website links to a myriad of gay sites targeting the youth, including one promoting a book that promotes sex with children.[5] GLASS's founder and former executive director, Teresa DeCrescenzo, edited a book that helps youth discover their homosexuality.[6]

It came as no surprise that the California Department of Social Services found "on numerous occasions beginning at least as early as 1994, adults affiliated with GLASS, including staff members, members of the GLASS board of directors and volunteers, sexually abused or molested children who were placed with GLASS."[7] The Department of Social Services found that DeCrescenzo, aware of the allegations of molestation, determined staff conduct not to be inappropriate.[8] Apparently, DeCrescenzo believes molestation is part of the "coming out" process that she glorifies in her writings.

One would think that a molestation factory disguised as a group home would be a good reason for the State of California to shut down the whole GLASS group home operation. Remarkably, the state of California, allowing GLASS to continue operation, removed a few individuals and placed GLASS on probation.[9] Even though additional molestation incidents occurred at GLASS facilities in 1999, they remain in operation until this day.

A Los Angeles Times investigation found that, in some cases, "it appears authorities never fully investigated those reports."[10] Indeed, not one person has been charged with child molestation or endangerment by state Attorney General Bill Lockyer, an avid promoter of the gay agenda.[11] After all, that would be hateful. If such a group home were operated by heterosexuals, the facilities would be shut down, any existing licenses revoked, and numerous criminal charges filed.

 Homosexuals are targeting not just youth group homes, but all groups that work with youth. When a California family sued the Scouts in 1993 for exposing their son to a Scout leader who molested him, the Scouts were ordered to turn over 25,000 pages of documents to the plaintiff. This unprecedented glimpse into the world of Scout ****s revealed that thousands of boys had been molested by Scout leaders and other volunteers between 1971 and 1991 resulting in the expulsion of over 1,800 Scout volunteers for **** activity.[12] The documents show that some Scout leaders molested over forty boys before getting caught and that many, once caught, simply moved to a different Scout troop and continued abusing boys.

Gay activists have spun the Scout molestation epidemic as a heterosexual problem. Examination of many of the higher profile cases, however, reveals that Scout molesters are attracted exclusively to boys and many lead mainstream gay lifestyles. John Hemstreet is a typical example. Hemstreet is a convicted child molester, former Boy Scout leader, and currently the President of the Toledo, Ohio chapter of Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG). PFLAG is one of the groups leading the nationwide attack on the Boy Scouts of America.[13]

Incredibly, the pro-**** group, North American Man Boy Love Association (NAMBLA), which calls itself a homosexual group, wrote a letter to the national Scout office urging "the Boy Scouts of America to cease its discrimination against openly gay or lesbian persons in the appointment of its scout masters and scouters and in its membership. This will permit scouts to be exposed to a variety of life styles and will permit more of those individuals who genuinely wish to serve boys to do so."[14]

Using twisted logic, pro-gay academics argue in various social science journals that the molestation of boys is not a gay lifestyle issue and that such men are not really homosexuals. It is simply amazing that gay propagandists and sexology "experts" are successfully bamboozling the public and the media into believing that a man's exclusive focus on young males should not be defined as homosexuality. But if an exclusive attraction of a male to other males of any age is not homosexuality, what is?

On one hand, homosexuals publicly claim that the molestation of boys is not part of the homosexual lifestyle. On the other, they are quietly establishing the legal parameters exempting the molestation of boys from prosecution on anti-discrimination grounds. For example, in Nevada a forty-two year-old man was arrested for molesting a sixteen year-old boy but was not charged by the district attorney. The reason given was that to do so would "discriminate against a class of people."[15] The deputy district attorney added that to charge the man "would be singling out homosexuals." [16] For years, conservatives have argued that so called anti-discrimination laws would eventually lead to granting legal protections for various homosexual deviancies. It appears that time is coming sooner than expected.

Research on the homosexual lifestyle confirms it is almost exclusively a youth oriented culture.[17] Very few gays exhibit a preference for older men. Some admit to a focus on teenage boys, some on prepubescent boys, and many cross over between categories. All are subsets of the homosexual deviancy. Moreover, most ****s consider themselves to be gay. In a 1988 study published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior, 86% of ****s described themselves as homosexual or bisexual.[18] Child prostitution expert Dr. Jennifer James reports that the number of boy prostitutes who identify themselves as homosexuals has risen from 10% to 60% in the last fifteen years.[19]

Most of the public is by now aware of NAMBLA, a group that openly promotes sex with minor boys and claims that boy-lovers respond to the needs of the boys they love. NAMBLA is currently the target of a class action lawsuit by parents of children molested and, in one case, murdered by individuals associated with NAMBLA.[20] Publicly, the mainstream gay organizations distance themselves from NAMBLA. Clearly, this is merely a public relations ploy as the gay leadership realizes its agenda would suffer greatly if the public knew the truth.

The reality is that NAMBLA not only describes itself as part of the gay rights coalition, but its literature states that one of its goals is "cooperating with the lesbian, gay, and other movements for sexual liberation."[21] NAMBLA even "provide[s ] financial and other assistance to GLB [Gay, lesbian, bi-sexual] youth organizations . . . ."[22] Indeed, some NAMBLA chapters meet at mainstream gay centers such as Philadelphia's Gay and Lesbian Community Center. NAMBLA's meetings and conferences always feature mainstream gay leaders and speakers. For example, Don Kilhefner, of the Los Angeles Gay Community Service Center, gave a speech to Los Angeles NAMBLA members on the subject of "The Significance of Man/Boy Love in the Gay Community."

The most comprehensive gay networking website, the Queer Resource Directory (www.qrd.org), links every gay group in the country including NAMBLA and other homosexual groups that focus on youth. NAMBLA marches in gay pride parades with the consent of the gay leadership. Many of the homosexual movement's most prominent leaders endorse NAMBLA and its goals. Gay authors and leaders such as Allen Ginsberg, Gayle Rubin, Larry Kramer (founder of ACT-UP), Pat Califia, Jane Rule, Michael Kearns, and Michel Foucault have all written in favor of either NAMBLA or man-boy relationships.[23] Harry Hay, whom many consider the founder of the American homosexual movement, invited NAMBLA members to march with him in the 1993 "March on Washington" gay rights parade. He also marched in the 1986 Los Angeles gay parade wearing a shirt emblazoned with the words "NAMBLA walks with me."[24]

Leading mainstream homosexual newspapers and magazines such as the Advocate, Edge, Metroline, The Guide, and The San Francisco Sentinel have not only published pro-NAMBLA articles and columns but also many have editorialized in favor of NAMBLA and sex with children. The editor of The Guide, Ed Hougen, stated in an interview with Lambda Report, "I believe they [NAMBLA] are generally interested in the right of young people to be sexual . . . . I am glad there is a group like NAMBLA that is willing to be courageous." The San Francisco Sentinel was more blunt: "NAMBLA's position on sex is not unreasonable, just unpopular. [W]hen a 14 year old gay boy approaches a man for sex, it's because he wants sex with a man."[25]

There is also the matter of NAMBLA's membership status in the International Lesbian and Gay Association (ILGA), recognized at one time by the United Nations as the official Non-Government Organization (NGO) representing the gay community worldwide. When NAMBLA's ILGA membership became public, a whirlwind of international controversy erupted. Some gay leaders viewed this attention as harmful to the gay movement's image and goals and urged the expulsion of NAMBLA for purely political purposes.

However, the media failed to report that ILGA itself had hosted workshops on pedophilia and passed resolutions in 1985, 1988, and 1990 to abolish age of consent laws claiming that "same sex age of consent laws often operate to oppress and not to protect" and supported "the right of every individual, regardless of age, to explore and develop her or his sexuality."[26]

Eventually, reacting to congressional legislation threatening the reduction of $119 million in financial support, the United Nations kicked out ILGA in 1995 for refusing to sever ties with a half dozen member groups that advocated or promoted pedophilia. Revealingly, even though ILGA did expel NAMBLA (many say it was for show), it could not muster enough support among its membership to expel other more powerful and discreet pro-**** organizations from Germany and other countries. It is extremely revealing that the majority of members of the world's leading homosexual coalition, the ILGA, decided they would rather be excluded from UN deliberations than vote out groups that advocate sex with children.[27]

Aside from support for NAMBLA by the mainstream gay community, there is a wealth of evidence that homosexuals are the prime force behind the escalating child molestation epidemic. Indeed, over the last fifteen years the homosexual community and its academic allies have published a large quantity of articles that claim sex with children is not harmful to children but, as stated in one homosexual journal, "constitute an aspect of gay and lesbian life."[28] Such articles have appeared in pro-homosexual academic journals such as The Journal of Homosexuality, The Journal of Sex Research, Archives of Sexual Behavior, and The International Journal of Medicine and Law. The editorial board of the leading **** academic journal, Paidika, is dominated by prominent homosexual scholars such as San Francisco State University professor John DeCecco, who happens to edit the Journal of Homosexuality.

Indeed, the Journal of Homosexuality is the premier academic journal of the mainstream homosexual world and yet it published a special double issue entitled, Male Intergenerational Intimacy, containing dozens of articles portraying sex between men and minor boys as loving relationships. One article states that parents should view the **** who loves their son "not as a rival or competitor, not as a theft of their property, but as a partner in the boy's upbringing, someone to be welcomed into their home."[29]

Similarly, mainstream gay publications make no effort to hide their pro-pedophilia views. For example, BLK, a leading black homosexual publication, defended pedophilia with an article entitled, "Must Men Who Love Boys Be Guilty of Sexual Misconduct?"[30] San Francisco's leading homosexual newspaper, The Sentinel, bluntly editorialized, "The love between man and boys is at the foundation of homosexuality."[31]

In 1995, the homosexual magazine Guide stated:

We can be proud that the gay movement has been home to the few voices who have had the courage to say out loud that children are naturally sexual, that they deserve the right to sexual expression with whoever they choose . . . [w]e must listen to our prophets. Instead of fearing being labeled ****s, we must proudly proclaim that sex is good, including children's sexuality . . . . We must do it for the children's sake .[32]

Without equivocating, the Guide is saying that gays must molest children for their own sake.

While the mainstream media has apparently refused to engage in any kind of investigative expose of the gay movement, it is not difficult to find support for child sex among key homosexual leaders in their publications and literature. For example, the founder of the infamous homosexual group, ACT-UP, Larry Kramer, wrote in his book, Report from the Holocaust: The Making of an AIDS Activist, "In those instances where children do have sex with their homosexual elders, be they teachers or anyone else, I submit that often, very often, the child desires the activity, and perhaps even solicits it."

In a letter to the editor of a gay newspaper, Andy Humm, a key leader of one of America's largest gay youth groups, Advocates for Youth, said, "No one should be denied basic civil rights because of his or her orientation, whether the person be homosexual, heterosexual, transsexual, transvestite, ****, sadist, masochist, asexual, whatever one can imagine . . . . They are in themselves natural variations."[33]

A 1995 content analysis by Dr. Judith Reisman of the Institute for Media Education, focusing on advertisements in the nation's most influential homosexual newspaper, The Advocate, reveals that 63% of the personal ads sought or offered prostitution.[34] Many of them openly solicit boys.[35] The Advocate also advertises a "Penetrable Boy Doll . . . available in 3 provocative positions."[36] Reisman found that the number of erotic boy images per issue of The Advocate averaged fourteen.[37] Some homosexual publications, such as the southern Californian newspaper Update, are brazen enough to advertise for donations for the legal costs of homosexuals arrested for child molestation.

Indeed, NAMBLA and other pro-**** literature can be found wherever homosexuals congregate (homosexual bookstores, bathhouses, festivals, gay bars, etc.). When Americans for Truth About Homosexuality leader Peter LaBarbera asked the manager of one of Boston's leading gay bookstores, Glad Day Bookshop, to quit selling **** literature he replied, "Our policy is to sell everything that's available to the [gay] community."[38]

The owner of a prominent Philadelphia gay book store, Giovanni's Room, pulled NAMBLA's literature off its shelves only due to boycott threats but commented, "I think it's a strange day for gay culture when we start banning something because it makes us uncomfortable . . . especially when that thing is a foundation of gay literature. If we pulled all the books that had adult-youth sexual themes, we wouldn't have many novels, memoirs, or biographies left."[39]

The most popular gay fiction books on the market today are rich with idyllic accounts of intergenerational relationships according to writer Philip Guichard in a Village Voice article. Doubleday published a book in 1998, The Gay Canon: Great Books Every Gay Man Should Read, which recommends numerous works that portray sex with boys in a positive manner. The Border bookstore chain sells a book, A History of Gay Literature: The Male Tradition, which includes a chapter devoted to the history of pro-**** literature as an indisputable part of homosexual literary history.

The Gay Men's Press publishes a bestsellers list on which appear such books as Dares to Speak: History and Contemporary Perspectives on Boy-Love, Some Boys, and For a Lost Soldier. All these books can only be described as pro-****. The authoritative Encyclopedia of Homosexuality claims to acknowledge, "the fact that until very recently man/boy love relationships were accepted as a part, and indeed were a major part, of male homosexuality."[40] The leading dictionary of the homosexual culture, The Queens' Vernacular, lists 254 of its 12,000 words as having to do with sex with boys.

One of the nation's largest publishers of homosexual literature and books, Alyson Publications, also publishes pro-**** books such as Gay Sex: A Manual for Men Who Love Men. This book contains detailed instructions for homosexuals on how to avoid discovery and arrest when having sex with boys: "Avoid situations where a number of men are having sex with the same boy, or group of boys, over a period of time."[41] Unknown to most people, Alyson Publications is also probably America's largest provider of pro-gay literature and reading material to public schools. Unfortunately, this market is growing at a tremendous pace. The infamous Heather has Two Mommies, currently being used in many public school systems to educate children about homosexuality, is an Alyson Publications book.

Even the alleged birthplace of the modern day homosexual movement, the Stonewall Bar in New York City, was notorious as a place where older homosexuals arranged to meet young boys for sex.

"Mainstream" homosexual conferences commonly feature speeches about intergenerational sex as it is now called. For example, at one of the nation's largest homosexual gatherings, the annual National Gay Lesbian Task Force convention, featured a workshop at its 2001 confab entitled, Your Eyes Say Yes But the Law Says No, which included a speech by an S&M activist about laws affecting intergenerational sex. The convention also featured another workshop entitled Drag 101: How to Turn Kids in Make-up into Kings and Queens.

Pick up any gay newspaper or gay travel publication and one finds ads for sex tours to Burma, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and other countries infamous for boy prostitution. Published exposés on such tours by former homosexuals reveal that thousands of American gay men are patronizing boy prostitutes around the world. The most popular travel guide for homosexuals, Spartacus Gay Guides, is replete with information about where to find boys for sex and, as a friendly warning, lists penalties in various countries for sodomy with boys if caught.

The government of Sri Lanka announced that more than 10,000 boy prostitutes work its beaches as a result of the high demand created by affluent Western homosexuals. But the dirty little secret of the American homosexual community is the thousands of boy prostitutes who service them within our borders. A book exposing the boy prostitution world, For Money or Love, Boy Prostitution in America, reveals that boys are selling themselves not only in the cities of New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Chicago, Baltimore, and New Orleans, but also in smaller towns across the country. In street jargon, the boys are known as "chickens" and their customers are known as "chickenhawks."[42]

Homosexual Internet sites are no different. A quick search using the words "gay" and "boys" easily locates thousands of homosexual sites that promote sex with young boys and/or contain child ****ography. Indeed, it is the mainstream homosexual groups who filed suit to block Virginia Legislation, passed in 2001, restricting Internet use that proves harmful to children (such as chat rooms commonly used by ****s to find victims).[43] Similarly, a ****'s conviction in Iowa for showing ****ographic videos to five minor boys sparked widespread protests from homosexual activists when the conviction was upheld on appeal by the Iowa Supreme Court.[44]

The Holy Grail of the **** movement is the lowering or elimination of all age of consent laws. The main warriors in this political and legal battle are "mainstream" homosexual groups. Robert Knight and Frank York of the Family Research Council have thoroughly documented this in a report. "As far back as 1972, the National Coalition of Gay Organizations adopted a 'gay rights platform' that included a demand to 'repeal all laws governing the age of sexual consent.'"[45]

It is homosexual activists within the United Nations who are lobbying to give sexual rights to underage children. In England, the campaign is being led by Outrage. and Stonewall, both homosexual organizations. The Dutch homosexual group, Association for the Integration of Homosexuality, has succeeded in lowering the age of legal sex to twelve in Holland. Assisting them was another homosexual group, the COC, which stated:

The liberation of pedophilia must be viewed as a gay issue . . . [and that] ages of consent should therefore be abolished . . . by acknowledging the affinity between homosexuality and pedophilia, the COC has quite possible made it easier for homosexual adults to become more sensitive to the erotic desires of younger members of their sex, thereby broadening gay identity.[46]

In Canada, the effort is led by homosexual activist and NAMBLA defender Gerald Hannon. In America, aside from NAMBLA, the effort is supported by most of the major homosexual organizations such as the National Gay Task Force. Indeed, the annual homosexual "March on Washington" invariably releases a "statement of demands" which includes abolishing age of consent laws. Homosexuals in Hawaii have already successfully lowered the age of consent there to fourteen. To be frank, it is difficult to find an advocate of lowering the age of consent laws in the United States or elsewhere who is not a homosexual activist.

What then does the academic literature say about the relationship between homosexuality and child molestation? Quite a bit, actually. Scientific studies confirm a strong pedophilic predisposition among homosexuals.

Family Research Institute founder and psychologist Paul Cameron, reviewing more than nineteen different academic reports and peer reviewed studies in a 1985 Psychological Reports article, found that homosexuals account for between 25% and 40% of all child molestation. Sex researchers Freund, Heasman, Racansky, and Glancy, for example, in an 1984 Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy article, put the number at 36%. Erickson, Walbek, Sely, in a 1988 Archives of Sexual Behavior article, places it at 86% when the children being molested are male.[47]

However, it should be noted that homosexuals account for only 2% of the population which statistically means that a child molester is ten to twenty times more likely to be homosexual than heterosexual. In other words, heterosexual molestations proportionally are a fraction compared to homosexual molestations. More recent studies confirm this statistic. In 2000, the Archives of Sexual Behavior published an article by seven sex researchers concluding that "around 25-40% of men attracted to children prefer boys. Thus the rate of homosexual attraction is 6-20 times higher among ****s."[48]

Sexual violence expert and professor of psychiatry Eugene Abel, in a 1987 study published by the Journal of Interpersonal Violence, concluded that homosexuals sexually molest young boys with an incidence that is five times greater than the molestation of girls.[49]

In a 1992 study published in the Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy, sex researchers K. Freud and R. I. Watson found that homosexual males are three times more likely than straight men to engage in pedophilia and that the average **** victimizes between 20 and 150 boys before being arrested.[50]

Other data has come to the forefront confirming that sex with young boys is a way of life for many homosexuals. In 1993, the United States Army, Office of Judge Advocate, issued a study that analyzed 102 court martial convictions having to do with soldiers involved in homosexual acts over a four-year period. The study found that in 47% of the cases, homosexual men victimized a youth.[51]

A content analysis of molestation stories by the Family Research Institute involving five major newspapers found around 40% involved homosexuals, but this number is low due to the fact that many reporters will not report if a child molester is homosexual even if he knows that to be the case.

A study by sex researchers Alan Bell and Martin Weinberg found that 25% of white gay men have had sex with boys sixteen years and younger.[52] The Family Research Institute conducted a similar study and found that "11 times more gays than exclusively heterosexual men reported sex with a man while they were under the age of 13."[53] A study by homosexual activists and researchers Jay and Young revealed that 73% of homosexuals surveyed had sex with boys sixteen to nineteen years of age or younger.[54]

In a study on male **** published by the American Journal of Psychiatry, it was found that 6% of **** victims reported to a Philadelphia **** crisis center were boys under sixteen years old.[55] And women are not raping them.

This type of behavior, however, is considered normal in psychiatric circles due to the influence of homosexual psychiatrists within the American Psychiatry Association. It is the homosexual caucus within that body that pushed to rewrite the diagnostic criteria for pedophilia. The new definition defines sex with children as a psychological disorder only if it causes "clinically significant distress" for the molester. Under that definition, most molesters are perfectly normal people.

The American Psychological Association appears to have similar sympathies when it published a sloppy and error-filled article in its Psychological Bulletin in July 1998, arguing that there is no research documenting that sexual child abuse is harmful to children and that "a willing encounter with positive reactions would be labeled simply adult-child sex" instead of using terms such as child abuse and victim. There was no outcry from the homosexual community. Indeed, they either remained silent or publicly defended the article. One of the nation's most prominent homosexual journalists, Andrew Sullivan, attacked critics of the study in the New York Times. In the National Journal, gay journalist Jonathan Rauch strongly defended the study and argued that child molestation should be called "adult-adolescent sex."[56]

The epidemic in male child molestation occurring simultaneously with the rise of an aggressive homosexual subculture is not coincidental. Due to the AIDS virus, molestation is often a death sentence. Further, the Journal of the American Medical Association reported that 50% of male AIDS victims reported having sex with an adult male by the age of 16, and 20% had sex with an adult male by the age of 10.[57]

The Center of Disease Control (CDC) recently reported that as of the year 2000, there are now 31,293 AIDS cases in the 13-24-age category.[58] The HIV/AIDs Surveillance Reports maintained by the CDC demonstrate that for the last few years around half of the age group 13-24 HIV victims were infected with the disease as a result of sex with adult men.[59] However, one must bear in mind that due to the incubation period of the HIV/AIDS disease, many of these boys and young men were infected as long as ten years previous to the reporting of their cases. This translates into roughly 15,000 boys that have been infected by adult men since the CDC started to compile this information. This is an epidemic no one seems to want to talk about.

Indeed, the response instead has been an escalating effort by the homosexual community to compromise every major youth group possible and to inundate our public schools with pro-homosexual curricula, counseling, and social activities. The YMCA, Girl Scouts, and the Big Brothers, despite also being plagued by molestation incidents, have all capitulated to homosexual pressure campaigns. Indeed, Girl Scout leaders writing in the 1997 book, On My Honor: Lesbians Reflect on their Scouting Experience, reveal that the Girl Scouts are inundated with lesbians─a third of its professional staff is lesbian─and they have even initiated a lesbian mentoring program. The Boy Scouts now stand alone among America's major youth groups in resisting the homosexual agenda - and that explains why they are under such ferocious legal, legislative, and cultural attack.

Moreover, the liberal media omits any mention of a person's homosexuality in covering molestation stories. This is reinforced by pressure from homosexual groups. The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLADD) disseminated a "media guide" to reporters nationwide in which they urge:

A criminal's . . . sexual orientation is not always obvious (or relevant) based simply on the circumstances of a crime . . . . [A]s a rule avoid labeling an activity or emotion as "homosexual" unless you would call the same activity "heterosexual" or "straight" if engaged in by someone of another sexual orientation.

The homosexual community knows that the capture of all major youth groups is absolutely necessary to the expansion of its movement. They know what most social scientists and sex researchers know but refuse to talk about : homosexually-molested children are likely to become homosexual. After all, one of the most common characteristics of homosexual molesters is the fact that they were molested themselves during boyhood. An article published by the American Medical Association reported that, "Abused adolescents, particularly those victimized by males, were up to 7 times more likely to self-identity as gay or bisexual than peers who had not been abused."[60]

It is high time that America's elected officials, health authorities, education leaders, and law enforcement officials act to not only tell the harsh truth─the homosexual community has targeted America's youth─but act now to counter this horrible trend. Failure to do so will have disastrous consequences for both our culture and for the health of our children.

Toddlers Shown Cartoon Pics of Adults Watching P0rn

Children as young as 4 are being shown cartoon pictures of adults watching pornography during sex education classes, a BBC News feature has revealed.

Sex education consultant Lynnette Smith runs sessions for primary schools, in which children give a thumbs up or down to different cartoon scenarios, such as grabbing a woman’s breasts or pulling at a boy’s underwear.

The students are also asked when is acceptable to “have a little rummage in your underwear”, and the answer given is “somewhere private like the bathroom.”

But one teaching union has warned that such sessions may not be suitable for all primary schools because “Innocence is precious.”

Smith runs the same presentation for children between the ages of 4 and 11.

A BBC reporter sat in on one of Smith's sessions for 7- to 9-year-olds at a primary school in North Lincolnshire.

Children were heard giving “cries of disgust” and laughing during the half-hour presentation, which also involved the students naming body parts from a picture of a naked girl.

Parents at the school were said to be horrified when first informed that the presentation would take place.

One mother said: “I thought, ‘No they’re only 7.’ ”

During the session, other scenarios given the “thumbs down” included looking under toilet doors when someone is inside and showing your bottom to a camera.

Russell Hobby, the general secretary of the National Association of Head Teachers cautioned that: “You don’t want to start too young.”

He said conversations about online dangers in primary schools should be “general warnings that they may see things they don’t like online and advice on what to do about it when they do.”

But Lynette Smith has defended her program, saying: “My bottom line is to ask, ‘From what age are they vulnerable?’ ”

Sex and relationships education is not compulsory in primary schools, despite pressure from various campaign groups.

David Cameron said in September this year that children can be warned about the dangers of online pornography without an overhaul of sex education.

Pedophilia Now Classified as Sexual Orientation

The American Psychological Association (APA) has changed the classification of pedophilia from a disorder to a sexual orientation or preference in its latest edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V).


Neon Tommy is reporting that the APA is drawing “a very distinct line between pedophilia and pedophilic disorder.”

For instance, pedophilia is defined in the new edition as referring “to a sexual orientation or profession of sexual preference devoid of consummation, whereas pedophilic disorder is defined as a compulsion and is used in reference to individuals who act on their sexuality,” the report states.

This is not a total surprise as the classification of pedophilia in the DSM has been steadily evolving over the years. The previous edition categorized pedophilia as a disorder only if the fantasies or urges involve children under the age of 13, if they last at least six months, if the individual has acted upon them, or if they cause distress such as legal problems.

Paul Christiano, a registered sex offender and spokesperson for B4U-ACT, a pedophila advocacy group that offers support for “minor-attracted persons”, wants to see the system changed because of its one-size-fits-all approach that treats a man who committed 20 consecutive rapes and a 19-year-old boy who had sex with his 17-year-old girlfriend the same way.

There is some basis for wanting a change, writes Hannah Maluyao for Neon Tommy, but the grounds for this change are “murky” with B4U-ACT.

For example, when questioned about the most responsible way in which a **** should manage his sexual desires, Christiano said they encourage their members to keep their preferences as a purely mental exercise that is never acted upon.

“B4U-ACT does not condone illegal activity,” Christiano insisted.

“Yet how can we be assured that such behavior remains entirely in the mind and not carried out in the bedroom?” Maluyao asks. “Answer: we can’t.”

Christiano has also advocated for the “sexual autonomy” of children, saying in his senior thesis as a graduate student, that they “should not be left in the dark about their own sexuality.” More education in sexuality would help them to better understand boundaries.

“However, there is an underlying suggestion that with sexual knowledge comes sexual consent,” Mulayao writes. “If children were permitted to be more sexually autonomous, would they then be able to fully consent to a sexual relationship or more importantly, a sexual relationship with an adult?”

Caitlin Myers, a doctorate student in Sociology at the University of Southern California told Mulayao that while open discussion of sexuality would be good, children still cannot give consent.

“In theory,” Myers says, “pedophilia as a practiced sexual orientation walks a thin line. There is no possibility of pedophilia becoming an accepted sexual orientation in current culture.”

Dr. Gregory Popcak of the Pastoral Solutions Institute, and organization dedicated to helping Catholics find faith-filled solutions to marriage, family, and personal problems, does not believe people should be too concerned about these changes to the DSM. The changes made were more editorial than clinical.

“From what I can tell, the DSM V criteria for Pedophilic Disorder shouldn’t bother anyone,” he writes for Patheos.  “I’m, personally, not sure what to make of those who refer to the idea of a pedophilic orientation.  If it is just to distinguish between ideation and actions, I think that’s fine.  In fact, that would be exactly how the Catholic Church thinks of it.  One can have a predisposition to a sin or even a strong temptation to a sin without committing a sin. There is a big difference between thinking about robbing a bank and actually robbing it. Neither is good, but only the latter is actually sinful.”

However, he goes on to warn that “if calling it an orientation is somehow used  or co-opted by some social advocacy group to justify pedophilia as ‘just another normal expression of sexual desires’  then that would be seriously problematic.  That said, I don’t really think that’s what’s happening–at this time, anyway.”

Sexual Predator Honored With U.S. Postage Stamp

by Matt Barber on October 29, 2013     

Benjamin Franklin famously quipped, “In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.”
 
Franklin evidently failed to envisage today’s postmodern left. For the conservative, there exists at least one other certainty, and it is this: The degree to which “progressives” attack you corresponds precisely to the degree with which you challenge any among their assorted, distorted and sordid sacred cows.
 
What would you call a 33-year-old man who both had and axiomatically acted upon a deviant sexual appetite for underage, drug-addicted, runaway boys? (No, not Jerry Sandusky.)
 
What would you call a man of whom, as regards sexual preference, his own friend and biographer confessed, “Harvey always had a penchant for young waifs with substance abuse problems”?
 
In a recent interview, I called this man “demonstrably, categorically an evil man based on his [statutory] **** of teenage boys.”
 
But you can call him Harvey Milk.
 
Harvey Milk’s only claim to fame is that he was the first openly homosexual candidate to be elected to public office (San Francisco city commissioner). His chief cause was to do away with the Judeo-Christian sexual ethic. In 1978 Milk was murdered over a non-related political dispute by fellow Democrat Dan White.
 
And a “progressive” martyr was born.
 
Merriam Webster defines “pederast” as “one who practices anal intercourse especially with a boy.” It defines “statutory ****” as “the crime of having sex with someone who is younger than an age that is specified by law.”
 
Harvey Milk was both a pederast and, by extension, a statutory rapist. After I publicly addressed this objective reality in the above-mentioned interview, the liberal blogosphere reacted in, shall we say, an informatively defensive manner.
 
A Huffington Post headline screamed: “Harvey Milk Was An ‘Evil Man’ Who Raped Teenage Boys, Unworthy of Postage Stamp: Matt Barber.”
 
The always-amusing Right Wing Watch blog breathlessly posted my comments with the header: “Barber: ‘Harvey Milk Was Demonstrably, Categorically an Evil Man.’”
 
And so on.
 
Here’s what’s especially telling about their reaction. Not one of the dozen-or-more publications that reported on my comments even challenged their veracity. Not one attempted to refute or deny that Harvey Milk was, in fact, a pederast and a sexual predator.
 
That’s because they can’t.
 
One of Milk’s victims was a 16-year-old runaway from Maryland named Jack Galen McKinley. As previously mentioned, Milk had a soft spot in his, um, heart for teenage runaways. Motivated by an apparent quid pro quo of prurience, Milk plucked McKinley from the street.
 
Randy Shilts was a San Francisco Chronicle reporter and close friend to Harvey Milk. Though Shilts died of AIDS in 1994, he remains, even today, one of the most beloved journalists in the “LGBT” community.
 
Shilts was also Harvey Milk’s biographer. In his glowing book “The Mayor of Castro Street,” he wrote of Milk’s “relationship” with the McKinley boy: ” … Sixteen-year-old McKinley was looking for some kind of father figure. … At 33, Milk was launching a new life, though he could hardly have imagined the unlikely direction toward which his new lover would pull him.”
 
In a sane world, of course, the only direction his “new lover” should have pulled him was toward San Quentin. But, alas, today’s America – a burgeoning relativist land of make-believe – is anything but sane.
 
Randy Thomasson, child advocate and founder of SaveCalifornia.com, is one of the nation’s foremost experts on Harvey Milk. Of the Shilts biography, Thomasson notes, “Explaining Milk’s many flings and affairs with teenagers and young men, Randy Shilts writes how Milk told one ‘lover’ why it was OK for him to also have multiple relationships simultaneously: ‘As homosexuals, we can’t depend on the heterosexual model. … We grow up with the heterosexual model, but we don’t have to follow it. We should be developing our own lifestyle. There’s no reason why you can’t love more than one person at a time.’”
 
Whereas McKinley, a disturbed runaway boy, desperately sought a “father figure” to provide empathy, compassion, wisdom and direction, he instead found Harvey Milk: a promiscuous sexual predator who found, in McKinley, an opportunity to satisfy a perverse lust for underage flesh.
 
Years later McKinley committed suicide.
 
Another teen who crossed paths with Harvey Milk was Christian convert and former homosexual Gerard Dols. In a 2008 radio interview with Concerned Women for America, Dols shared of how – as a physically disabled teen – the “very nice” Harvey Milk had encouraged him in 1977 to run away from his Minnesota home and come to San Francisco.
 
According to Dols, Milk told him, “Don’t tell your parents,” and later sent him a letter with instructions. Thankfully, the letter was intercepted by Dols’ parents who then filed a complaint with the Minnesota attorney general’s office.
 
The incident was evidently swept under the rug.
 
So what does a man like Harvey Milk get for his apparent crimes? While most sexual predators get time in prison and a dishonorable mention on the registry of sex offenders, Harvey Milk got his own California state holiday (“Harvey Milk Day”) and, more recently, his own commemorative postage stamp, awarded by the Obama administration’s USPS.
 
God bless America?
 
As troubling as the postage stamp may be, to me – the father of a soon-to-be-teenage boy – the specter of having a “Harvey Milk Day” forced upon millions of California children, parents and educators is even more troubling. Especially in light of Milk’s own sordid history with minors.
 
Even so, and quite obviously, not everyone agrees. Some have said that my reality-based assessment of Harvey Milk is “uncivil.” Our historical revisionist friends on the left tend to get a bit snooty when you publicly deconstruct one of their meticulously fabricated mythical martyrs.
 
I find that odd.
 
To me, even the mere notion of elevating, to hero status, a man who statutorily raped teenage boys, is what’s uncivil.

American Psychiatric Association Reclassifies Pedophilia, Backtracks

The American Psychiatric Association’s (APA) decision to once again reclassify pedophilia has led to further concerns that the professional organization is attempting to legitimize the disorder, paving the way for its defense and the recommendation of removal of age-of-consent laws.
 
In a press release Friday, Liberty Counsel, a nonprofit organization that promotes the causes of religious liberty, the sanctity of human life, and the family observed that in its newly published Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5), APA “changed the classification of pedophilia from a ‘disorder’ to a ‘sexual orientation,’ but, following the public outcry, APA released a statement that it was a mistake.”

APA, Liberty Counsel noted, now states “sexual orientation” is an error and should read instead, “sexual interest.”

On Thursday, APA released a statement regarding what it referred to as a “text error” in DSM-5:

In the case of pedophilic disorder, the diagnostic criteria essentially remained the same as in DSM-IV-TR. Only the disorder name was changed from “pedophilia” to “pedophilic disorder” to maintain consistency with the chapter’s other disorder listings.

“Sexual orientation” is not a term used in the diagnostic criteria for pedophilic disorder and its use in the DSM-5 text discussion is an error and should read “sexual interest.” In fact, APA considers pedophilic disorder a “paraphilia,” not a “sexual orientation.” This error will be corrected in the electronic version of DSM-5 and the next printing of the manual.

APA stands firmly behind efforts to criminally prosecute those who sexually abuse and exploit children and adolescents. We also support continued efforts to develop treatments for those with pedophilic disorder with the goal of preventing future acts of abuse.

Liberty Counsel cited APA’s statement upon the release of the original DSM-5 and the fact that the new publication “marked the end of more than a decade’s journey in revising the criteria for the diagnosis and classification of mental disorders.” APA said that the revision was done with collaboration from “professionals from the mental health and medical communities, patients and their families, and members of the public.”

“Clearly, if reclassifying pedophilia was merely an ‘error,’ it would have been caught in the ‘decade’s journey,’” said Mat Staver, Founder and chairman of Liberty Counsel. “Whether it is classified a ‘sexual orientation’ or a ‘sexual interest,’ any effort to legitimize pedophilia will provide pederasts with all the arguments they need to remove age of consent laws, and children will suffer.”

In its statement, Liberty Counsel noted the changes APA made to the diagnostic category of pedophilia over the years:
•In DSM-III, APA said that one who acted upon one’s sexual attraction to children was a ****.
 •In DSM-IV, APA changed its criteria, stating that pedophilia was only a disorder if it “caused clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational or other important areas of functioning.” 
•The Rind study was published, finding that man-boy “consensual” relationships were not necessarily harmful.
 •Subsequent to the public outcry related to the Rind study, APA said moral values trumped the scientific study.
 •In the original printing of DSM-5, “pedophilia” was changed to a “sexual orientation,” but another public outcry led APA to admit an “error” that will be corrected in “the next printing of the manual.”
 
“The DSM-5 has been under consideration for ten years. It is hard to accept that its publication was a mistake or an error. It is more likely that the public outcry prompted the APA’s recent press statement,” said Liberty Counsel.

Staver said, “The APA has lost credibility with this recent blunder over the classification for pedophilia. The APA has become co-opted by a political agenda.”

“The implications of reclassifying natural law, whether it be for same-sex marriage or adult-children relationships, are far-reaching,” he concluded.

Interestingly, APA has also been severely criticized by Allen Frances, M.D., the psychiatrist who supervised the publication of DSM-IV. Though Frances may have himself contributed to the classification “controversies,” his primary criticism of DSM-5 has been that it creates even more mental health disorder categories, and, consequently, an environment in which an increased number of human behaviors are open to the potential of being declared deviant.

“It is a sure sign of excess that 25% of us reportedly qualify for a mental disorder and that 20% are on psychiatric medication,” Frances wrote in June. “Unless checked, DSM-5 will open the floodgates and may turn current diagnostic inflation into future hyperinflation.”

Frances’ concern with some diagnostic categories such as those in the arena of sexual deviance is that, put simply, they are “pseudo-diagnoses” and not true “mental disorders.”

“There is no infallible definition guiding what should, and what should not, be included in the official manual of mental disorders,” Frances wrote in 2010 in Psychiatric Times. APA’s provision of increasing numbers of these “pseudo-diagnoses” in the area of sexual deviance, he stated, “has already contributed significantly to a grave misuse of psychiatry by the legal system in the handling of sexually violent predators – a misuse much opposed by the APA in a task force report and amicus brief to the Supreme Court.”

Frances argued that such diagnostic constructs “also medicalize undesirable sexual behavior and thereby provide a psychiatric excuse helpful to those who are attempting to evade personal responsibility.”

Can't help thinking that maybe this whole Psychiatry industry mirrors practices in the RCC - it's really no different for someone to sit privately in a room 1-1 with these psychiatrists from someone going into one of those "confessional" booths to confess their sins to some priest. Only difference being the psychiatrist can see their patients. And it's not like secrets from either side will stay secret.

Guess it's no surprise that the Psychiatry industry has reclassified pedofilia, given that the RCC has quietly embraced it.

Psychiatry is way more in line with theosophy and the new-age than with the RCC

Agreed. I think it's more of a case where the RCC has adopted some of the ideology of psychiatry.

ObamaCare’s marriage penalty: Cohabitating couples will pay less for healthcare than married couples
http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/obamacares-marriage-penalty-cohabitating-couples-will-pay-less-for-healthca
11/11/13

WASHINGTON, D.C., November 11, 2013 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Would you pay $10,000 a year to stay married to your spouse? Some American couples are being faced with exactly that decision as they consider their health insurance options under ObamaCare.

One of the most controversial provisions of ObamaCare is that it requires all Americans to purchase health insurance, whether they want it or not, or face hefty fines. To facilitate enrollment, the government has set up health care “exchanges” in all 50 states and Washington, D.C., where people can compare and purchase insurance plans. The government has promised subsidies to help those who cannot afford the higher premiums, but the way the subsidies are calculated mean they could pay up to $10,000 more per year.

The marriage penalty is a result of the way the government calculates poverty. While the poverty line for a single person’s income is $11,490 per year or less, a married couple is considered above the poverty line if their combined income exceeds $15,510. People are eligible for subsidies under ObamaCare if they make up to four times more than the federal poverty limit – $45,960 for a single person, or $62,040 for a married couple. But unmarried couples living together will have their incomes assessed separately – meaning that as long as each of them makes less than the individual cutoff, they can remain eligible for subsidies while bringing in a joint income of up to $91,920.

In 2010, the Heritage Foundation warned of this hidden marriage penalty in a report criticizing the ObamaCare bill for its “profound anti-marriage bias.” They also pointed out that focusing on the yearly penalty misses the bigger picture: the penalty is assessed over and over again throughout the couple’s life, meaning the real cost of marriage is much, much higher.

According to the group’s calculations, a married couple who remained married throughout their lives might pay more than $200,000 in penalties under ObamaCare.

“Most people feel that marriage is a healthful institution that society should encourage and strengthen,” wrote Robert Rector, the report’s author. “Inexplicably, [ObamaCare] takes the opposite approach. At nearly all age and income levels, the bill profoundly discriminates against married couples, providing far less support to a husband and wife than to a cohabiting couple with the same income.”

Rector said that ObamaCare’s passage means that “married couples across America will be taxed to provide discriminatory benefits to couples who cohabit, divorce, or never marry.”

Leanna Baumer, a senior legislative assistant for the Family Research Council, told LifeSiteNews.com that ObamaCare’s marriage penalty is a giant step in the wrong direction, one that could negate years of hard-won tax reforms aimed at encouraging marital stability.

“Not only do these penalties discourage couples from marrying, they ignore the bipartisan work that has occurred in the past decade to decrease marriage penalties in the tax code,” Baumer told LifeSiteNews.

“Providing further disincentives for marriage means that we make family instability more likely for some couples,” Baumer told LifeSiteNews.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich told CNN it’s possible the GOP overlooked the marriage penalty during the debate over ObamaCare, buried as it was in over 11,000 pages of regulations.  "It's both an anti-marriage and pro-divorce provision,” Gingrich said.  “I don't think anybody even knew it was in there."

**Well speak for yourself, Newt! After all, it was YOU(and the Heritage Foundation) who initially pushed this Individual Mandate idea in Obamacare over 20 years ago! Roll Eyes

The threat is more than theoretical. Nona Willis Aronowitz and Aaron Cassara of New York City are one such couple. Married for four years, they told NYC’s local CBS affiliate that while they are still very much in love, they are considering divorcing, at least on paper, because staying married will cost them thousands of extra dollars per year.

“After ObamaCare has rolled out, we realized that we would save thousands of dollars if we got divorced,” Aronowitz told CBS. She explained that the two of them combined make just over $62,000 a year, which is the cutoff for health care subsidies for a married household with no children. But if they divorce, even if they still live together, their incomes will be assessed separately, making them both eligible for federal aid
.

Baumer told LifeSiteNews that discouraging, or breaking up, happy marriages harms more than just couples.

“That result ultimately harms children, who have the best educational, financial, and social outcomes when they grow up in homes headed by their married mom and dad

Psalms 2:1  Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
Psa 2:2  The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
Psa 2:3  Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
Psa 2:4  He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
Psa 2:5  Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

Why Divorce Attorneys Will Love Obamacare
10/2/13

Someone in the White House thinks marriage is a bad idea.

Earlier this year, TFT showed that a high-earning couple, each with incomes of $400,000, would save about $27,000 annually if they divorced and filed their taxes separately.  Now we learn that the Affordable Care Act, a.k.a. Obamacare, is dangling a similar fate in front of middle income earners.

A typical 40-year old couple with two kids could save $7,230 a year by divorcing if one partner earns, say, $70,000 and the other $23,000. Sixty year-olds earning $62,041 each a year would save $11,028 annually if they broke up.

This analysis below, written by Tom Blumer, a blogger at PJ Media, points out the unintended consequence of what Obamacare will do to marriages and families. He used this calculator from the Kaiser Family Foundation to run the numbers.

THE BABY BOOMERS
In January 2010, two months before Obamacare’s passage, Robert Rector at the Heritage Foundation gave the impact a name: the “wedding tax.” To illustrate, let’s start with the 60-year-old married couple with no children.



If they have identical earnings totaling $65,000, which will usually net down to $50,000 or less in adjusted gross income after all income and payroll taxes, their Obamacare exchange Silver Plan premium next year with the same earnings will be $16,382, or about one-third of what used to be their take-home pay.What can this couple do? Well, they could decide to earn a few thousand dollars less, which will negate the five-figure premium hit. Encouraging ordinarily willing workers to put in less effort isn’t good in any economy, but especially not this one. But if either spouse’s earnings are unpredictable or hard to precisely track, they could still “mess up” and get socked with a premium they can’t afford.The “easiest” solution would be to avoid the “wedding tax” entirely by getting divorced while still living together. Here’s what would happen if they make that choice:



Instead of facing an exorbitant premium increase once their combined earnings hits $62,041 if they were to stay married, each cohabiting adult can earn up to $45,960 before Obamacare’s “tax credit”-free premiums kick in. Their annual after-tax savings at age 60 if they shack up and keep their individual earnings between $31,021 and $45,960 will range from $7,650 to over $11,000. The annual savings will slightly increase every year until Medicare kicks in at age 65. That kind of money can buy a lot of gifts for the grandkids.But the grandkids will also face the prospect of seeing their moms and dads divorce because of Obamacare.

THE GEN X’ers
Let’s look at the situation of a 40-year-old couple with two children. The spouses’ annual earnings are $70,000 and $23,000, respectively:



The couple’s annual unsubsidized premium while married is $11,547 (“tax credits” disappear at $92,401 for married couples with two children). But if they divorce and shack up while giving custody of both children to the lower-earning spouse, their combined annual premiums, at $4,317, will be more than $7,200 lower. That’s over $600 a month. As was the case in the previous example, the savings from divorce will gradually increase every year. Those parents will be torn between doing what Western civilization has considered morally right for millennia and their children’s financial well-being.(There may be contrary examples, but Blumer was unable to find a single instance where staying married led to a lower net health care premium compared to divorcing and living together.) Clearly, many couples who are considering marriage, especially after several years of seeing formerly married couples regress to cohabiting, will look at Obamacare’s “wedding tax” and say, “Never mind.” The effect on society will be incalculable, and certainly not for the good. - See more at: http://www.thefiscaltimes.com/Articles/2013/10/02/Why-Divorce-Attorneys-Will-Love-Obamacare#sthash.AjZ3WK2X.dpuf

Luke 11:52  Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.

FYI, the NIV replaces the KJB fornication word with "sexual immorality". Pt being that how are all of these non-KJB pastors and Churchianity leaders going to respond to their pews over this issue in Obamacare when confronted with THIS passage?

KJB
1Corinthians 6:13  Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
1Co 6:14  And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.
1Co 6:15  Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
1Co 6:16  What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
1Co 6:17  But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
1Co 6:18  Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.


NIV
1 Corinthians 6:13 You say, “Food for the stomach and the stomach for food, and God will destroy them both.” The body, however, is not meant for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
1 Cor 6:14 By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also.
1 Cor 6:15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never!
1 Cor 6:16 Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, “The two will become one flesh.”
1 Cor 6:17 But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit.
1 Cor 6:18 Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body.

ObamaCare Penalty May Contribute To Decline Of Marriage
11/6/13
http://news.investors.com/ibd-editorials-perspective/110613-678212-hidden-in-obamacare-is-penalty-against-marriage.htm

Marriage is on the decline, and some of that may be attributed to past and upcoming financial penalties from the federal government.

First marriages are occurring later in life — when they occur at all. In the past half-century cohabitation — living together prior to marriage or as a substitute for marriage — has increased 1,500%, according to a recent New York Times article.

Surveys show that about half of all women of childbearing age have lived with a romantic partner prior to marriage — a proportion that approaches nearly three-quarters of women in their 20s. The Pew Research Center found that nearly two-thirds of cohabitating partners view living together as a step toward marriage.

In the future, however, couples may skip the wedding bells altogether.

Social conservatives may lament this as a case of waning morality.Yet the reasons are partially economic: There are financial penalties in the tax code that kick in when couples get married.

There are additional penalties about to take effect under ObamaCare that further discourage couples from "tying the knot."

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) establishes health insurance exchanges where qualifying individuals can purchase subsidized, individual health insurance, starting in October 2013. However, the exchange subsidies are more generous to cohabitating partners than to married couples.

The ObamaCare marriage penalty creates perverse incentives that further discourage cohabitating couples from marriage — especially moderate-income couples.

The reason is health care subsidies to purchase coverage in the health insurance exchange are based on the federal poverty level, and the FPL does not rise proportionally with the number of individuals in the family.

For example, the poverty level is $11,490 for an individual, but increases to $15,510 for a married couple — only $4,020 more.

Because this poverty designation does not increase equally for each member of the family, two unmarried individuals living together qualify for larger federal subsidies than they would if they were married.

Consider two young college students living together, each earning 200% of the FPL (about $22,980 annually).

If that same couple were to marry, their combined household income of $45,960 would rise as a percent of the poverty level from 200% (individually) to 296% for a family of two.

As a result, their premiums in the health insurance exchange would be capped at a higher percentage of their income, providing a smaller total subsidy.

Instead of capping their premiums at no more than 6.3% of income as two individuals earning 200% of FPL, their premiums would be capped at 9.4% of income for a married family of two earning 296% of poverty. For example:

• Individually they would each qualify for a subsidy of about $1,087, or $2,174 per household.

• If that same couple were to marry, their combined subsidy would fall to $753.

• Thus, their marriage penalty is $1,421 annually.


Moreover, were this couple to have a child together, the Washington-based Tax Policy Center estimates this couple would suffer an additional penalty of $2,672 per year in higher taxes as a result of their decision to get married (although their ObamaCare exchange penalty would fall by $456).

It is a reasonable bet that $3,637 (the combined marriage penalty) is a large enough annual penalty to make many young couples living together hesitate about marriage.

The ObamaCare exchange marriage penalty is especially pronounced for moderate-income couples with combined incomes that fall between $30,000 and $55,000 annually.

National statistics already show that low- to moderate-income couples who cohabitate are about twice as likely to forgo marriage as couples with a bachelor's degree. A similar proportion of all these couples ultimately break up and dissolve their union.

However, cohabitating leads to marriage far more often among more highly educated couples. That may be because the tax penalties take a bigger bite out of lower-income couples' budgets, discouraging a trip down the aisle.

Research confirms that children benefit from the stability that marriage provides a family.

Yet, couples who cohabitate are more likely to raise children without the security of marriage. Government surveys find that about one in five women who begin cohabitating for the first time become pregnant within the first year. (For some demographics, this rises to 40%.)

The structure of the health care exchange subsidies will have perverse incentives on family formation. As a result of these and pre-existing marriage tax penalties, many moderate-income couples will decide marriage is a luxury they cannot afford.

New Push To Force Sex-Ed On Christian Schools

An activist group in Scotland that promotes secularism is arguing that all schools – including church-sponsored classes – must subject children to a secularist’s view of sex education. “We believe that Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood Education should be mandatory across all state schools, with set curricular content modeled on the successful Dutch model,” said Caroline Lynch, head of the Scottish Secular Society, in a statement about the developing dispute over what will be included in sex education for Scottish schools. The Scottish government recently released a draft of its plans for sex education, which includes allowances for parents and students to opt out because of their faith. But the Scottish Secular Society blasted the allowance.
