Radical Gay Activist: 'We Lose'

Who won Tuesday's presidential debate?


This week, in her own words, for an ABC News story that was to be written in support of a more tolerant view towards college campus bisexual liberality, radical gay activist Roberta Sklar conceded the entire debate of the radical homosexual activist agenda. In doing so she conceded the most important truth of the matter to the people who have argued the biblio-centric view of marriage and family. She also caved in her own chances of furthering her radical beliefs. Beliefs that only thirty years ago were considered abnormalities in human behavior.

In other words - gay activist Roberta Sklar - lost the gay debate.

How'd she do it?

Here's what she said this week:

"These young women see sexuality as a fluid thing," said National Gay and Lesbian Task Force spokeswoman Roberta Sklar. "It's not just between your legs. These relationships are physical, emotional and intellectual, and the boundaries are not hard set," she said.

Sklar said a growing number of young women have a "more flexible view" of their sexual partners, and their early choices of gender may not be a "fixed path."

"I know a woman who had relationships of depth with members of both sexes," said Sklar. "She didn't put a tag on what her sexuality identity was. Recently, I saw her at her wedding to a young, lovely man. In no way does she deny her history or say she has found her true sexuality. It was all her true sexuality."

Checkmate!

Sklar loses, here's why:

For the past thirty years radical homosexual activists have sought out a way to justify their desires and behaviors beyond pure human choice. And by all measure they have been quite effective - at least in moving public opinion - though they've made little headway on fact. They have sought from science a biological explanation of their sexual behavior. They have sought to find medical, genetic, even DNA related origins. These searches have been in vain as there is still no biological, genetic, or cellular explanation for their sexually related behaviors.

This did not stop them from making the broader assumption in pop culture and media that an explanation would be found. Thusly a thirty year PR effort to redefine and hi-jack the civil rights movement to include people who engage in homosexual actions has succeeded in making people "think gays are 'born that way'" regardless of what science says.

The indignity that the African-American community has expressed on this point is completely legitimate. Why should a person who engages in homosexual activity be given preferential treatment (i.e. status for treatment they otherwise would not receive) based purely on who they choose to sexually engage? There is nothing a black man can (nor should) do about the color of his skin. Unjust treatment for such a condition is abhorrent and unbiblical. But there is not one person that has ever been born who did not enter into a consensual sex act without choosing to do so. And if one is able to choose between who they do or do not copulate with - then there is NO similarity between the civil rights movement and the progressive preferential rights movement of today's homosexual activists.

Liberals recognized that weakness in their arguments some time back and thus began attempting to also eliminate the idea of "the right to choose" when it came to sexuality. They have spent millions attempting to smear legitimate psychologists who have determined that homosexuals can "change their orientation" (fancy words for "choose who to sleep with"). Activists have ridiculed prominent former homosexuals who no longer engage in homosexual behavior but rather have healthy and loving families and marriages.

Radical homosexual activists have also attempted to slander my voice for speaking so openly (and herehere, here, and here) about the comparisons of homosexual behavior to other sexual deviancy such as adultery, the use of pornography, incest, and pedophilia. All are sexual actions, all are chosen to be engaged in by the adult parties involved. Continued...

Subject: Gay Marriage
In the article, Kevin stated, "...if homosexuals are not biologically compelled to act on their urges, but rather make them based on choice - then the discussion is over. The "born that way" argument is dead, and does not apply...the debate about marriage is equally already settled. Marriage is a sexual union that God has established, and that society has recognized as having certain benefits. Homosexual unions by their design don't measure up - because they are missing the key ingredients."

I agree that people have freedom of choice in life, and exercise that freedom, especially when it comes to who to sleep with. However, people have preferences also. Some people like salt, others hate it. The people who hate it are not likely to choose it, just as the people who like it are more likely to choose it. Sexuality is like that: if someone likes to sleep with members of the same sex, but dislikes to sleep with members of the opposite sex, guess which sex that person will more likely choose to sleep with?

This does not mean then that the debate about marriage is over. Regardless of whether God has established marriage or not, the truth of the matter is that marriage has not always meant what it means today. Yes, marriage is an arrangement between opposite-sex parties. Historically, however, marriage was more about property, wealth, and alliances between families as opposed to romantic love, which it is today. Thus, the institution of marriage has changed to suit the civilization.

That being said, it is not an effective argument to say that simply because our sexuality is a choice means that homosexuals cannot get married. Actually, the issue is over human freedom and liberty.

Perhaps same-sex marriage is not the "same" as opposite-sex marriage. Perhaps it doesn't "measure up". Does that mean, however, that human freedom being what it is, we as a society do not have the freedom to choose?

Well done, M&M!
"Happened on this site by accident. I have never seen such pathetic drivel."

I happened on this site by accident some time ago too. I, too, have never seen such drivel.

I have tried to educate them, but many take as facts those are simply not true. (Choice, for just one example.)

They are impervious to data. Occasionally, they see the need for it, and they run off to biased xian organizations, and even dis the CDC!

They are also impervious to reason, some even quoting a 1900-year-old fairy tale as truth!

It is quite shocking. Where I live, these people don't exist. I thought they had died off. At least now I understand just what the "Xian Right" is all about.

Ugh. I need a shower.
