Following are some reports which were sent to me by a friend
who subscribes to a newsletter called "Traditional Values".
While the events that are discussed in these reports are now
dated, nevertheless, they still help us to understand exactly
how we arrived at our current sad condition. Please notice
that in addition to recruiting the help of their own legal
agencies and support groups, not to mention the backslidden
churches, their power and influence even extends to include
such international organizations as Amnesty International and
the United Nations:

Massachusetts Homosexuals Win Public Sex Fight

The homosexual movement has gained considerable political
strength under former Governor William Weld (a socially
liberal Republican) and the current Governor Paul Cellucci
(also a socially liberal Republican). The radical Gay and
Lesbian Advocates and Defenders (GLAD), a homosexual law firm
in Massachusetts, has just won a legal battle against the
Massachusetts State Police over public indecency laws. GLAD
had sued the police on behalf of a homosexual man who was
banned from public rest areas because of his involvement in
public sex acts. The man had been convicted a year ago for
having sex with a man in the woods near a Wareham rest stop.

The homosexual victory against the police requires that new
rules be drawn up to restrict what sex acts the police can
prosecute at rest areas. The rules say that "socializing and
expressions of affection" are not considered sexual conduct.
And public sex is not illegal unless there is a "substantial
risk" that the conduct will be observed by a passerby. One
police source called the new rules "ludricious" and predicted
that state police will continue to arrest homosexuals who
engage in public sex acts in parks and public restrooms. This
source also told reporters, "These rules are lawyer
psychobabble. They won't change anyone's behavior. If someone
is doing that in a public place, a rest area, where passersby
have access, it isn't right. And this is not going to change
any [trooper's] approach to enforcing the law." This victory
for public sex is likely to encourage other homosexual law
firms to challenge other state's policies against public sex
acts.

Homosexuals Plan Operation Rescue-like Protests

On March 13, three homosexual leaders will host an open
forum in California on "Dismantling Homophobia: the Growing
Use of Nonviolent Resistance to Oppose Religious-backed
Sexual Prejudice." The forum will be held at First Presby-
terian Church in Palo Alto (1140 Cowper St.) at 7 p.m. The
three leaders are: Will Doherty of the Stop Dr. Laura cam-
paign; Rev. Don Fado, leader of United Methodist ministers
who conducted a lesbian wedding ceremony in violation of
Methodist rules; and Greg Marlan, a leader in SoulForce, a
homosexual civil disobedience group founded by Mel White.

This forum will encourage homosexual activists to conduct
Operation Rescue-like events to protest groups opposed to
homosexuality.

Amnesty International Seeks Overturn Of Austrian Sex Law

The human rights group, Amnesty International (AI), is
protesting an Austrian law that places restrictions on how
young a boy can be who engages in sex with another man.
Article 209 in Austrian code says that a man 19 years of age
who engages in sex with a boy who has attained "the age of
14 but not yet the age of 18 shall be punished with
imprisonment from six months to five years."

Amnesty International is protesting the arrest of a man
known only as Franz L, who was arrested for having sex with
several teenage boys. AI says it takes no position on an
appropriate age of consent, but believes sexual consent laws
should be the same for both same-sex and opposite sex
partners. Under Austrian law, the age of consent for
heterosexuals and lesbians is 14, while the age of consent
for homosexual males is 18.

In other words, AI is pushing for a lowering of the age of
sexual consent for homosexual males so they can have earlier
access to boys for sexual exploitation.

U.N. Seeks To Fight "Sexual Orientation" Discrimination

The United Nations is at it again. A committee working on a
draft document for the upcoming World Conference Against
Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia, and Related
Intolerance, is working on banning "sexual orientation and
gender discrimination." The conference will be held in
Durban, South Africa from August 31 through September 7,
2001. Homosexual activist groups in Canada have hailed this
U.N. draft document.. According to EGALE, a powerful
homosexual lobby in Canada, "If adopted, this will be the
first time that sexual orientation discrimination has been
condemned in a United Nations Conference Declaration."

Homosexuals have already won major victories in Canada
against Christians who believe homosexuality is a sin and
perversion. Christian mayors have been prosecuted for
failing to proclaim "gay pride" celebrations; Christian
schools have lost court battles for firing homosexual
teachers; and a Christian printer was fined for refusing to
print homosexual propaganda.

Under no circumstance should the United State sign any U.N.
document or treaty that criminalizes opposition to
homosexuality.

Concerning the legal victories and headway which the gay and
lesbian community has been making in Canada, (as mentioned
in the previous news article), following is another news
report which was distributed by the Associate Press in July
of 2000, which serves to offer proof of this fact:

Province Mulls Same-Sex Marriage

VICTORIA, British Columbia (AP) - British Columbia's
attorney general filed a petition with the Canadian
province's supreme court to determine whether the ban on
same-sex marriages is constitutional. Attorney General
Andrew Petter said Thursday that his office has received a
legal opinion concluding the federal common law that
defines marriage as a union between a man and a woman
would likely be revised by the courts in light of recent
equality rights decisions under the Charter of Rights,
Canada's bill of rights. Currently in Canada, same-sex
couples are entitled to all the benefits of heterosexual
couples except for the right to apply for a marriage
license.

In addition to all of the advances we have already exposed,
gays and lesbians are making progress in other areas as well.
For example, not only have they taken over entire apartment
complexes, but certain cities have now become safe havens for
their ungodly lifestyle; such as San Francisco, Denver, The
Village of New York City, and others as well. To make matters
worse, they openly sit on city councils, church boards and
school boards; and they occupy respectable positions in the
American Congress. Many businesses are also operated by gays
and lesbians. This issue has totally divided the Christian
church within America. It has also divided the government, it
has divided the military, and it has divided the American
family. America is truly a very divided nation; and what did
Jesus say about such a situation? Consider the following:

". . . Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to
desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth."
Luke 11:17, KJV

Exactly why is America's house divided? Because some people
are willing to stand up for the truth of the Scriptures,
while others are not; some people fear God, while others do
not; and this causes inescapable division; even within the
same families. As the Bible plainly teaches us:

"Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not
to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at
variance against his father, and the daughter against her
mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He that
loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and
he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of
me. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me,
is not worthy of me."
Matthew 10:34-38, KJV

"And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he
that endureth to the end shall be saved."
Matthew 10:22, KJV

"Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall
suffer persecution."
2 Timothy 3:12, KJV
