April Fool’s Day Jokes for America’s Culture War? We Wish!

San Francisco drag queen “Sisters'” “Hunky Jesus” contest mocks Resurrection — on Easter Sunday

By Peter LaBarbera

Truth is often stranger than fiction these days in Politically Correct America, thanks to the Anti-Christian, Libertine Left:

Every Easter Sunday in San Francisco, the twisted drag queen group "Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence" hosts a blasphemous "Hunky Jesus" contest mocking the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

In three days, in what has become a sick, blasphemous Easter Sunday ritual in San Francisco, America’s “gay” Mecca, a group of homosexual drag queens — posing as mock nuns and calling themselves the “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence” — will sponsor the “Hunky Jesus” contest in a city park. Scantily-clad homosexual men and cross-dressing, queer “Sisters” with gaudy, painted faces will mock the Resurrection of Christ on an outdoor stage, as crude “homoerotic” jokes fly and the crowd roars with laughter. Last year’s winner: “Brokeback Jesus.” … I wish this were an April Fool’s Day joke…but it’s not. [To watch a “Hunky Jesus” contest on YouTube, go here:

An Episcopal Bishop, V. Gene Robinson — “V” stands for Vicky; his parents wanted a girl — travels the country using his once-respected church office to promote the sin of homosexuality. He does this in the name of “Christianity,” of course. Yes, Vicky Gene – who left his wife and family to pursue a “gay” lifestyle with another man — knows better than God. He believes “monogamous gay relationships” are a good thing and argues that poor Apostle Paul just didn’t understand all that we sophisticated, modern-day Westerners know about “sexual orientation.” The Episcopal Church has also approved its first avowedly lesbian bishop, “Rev.” Mary Glasspool — Chapter One of the New Testament Book of Romans be damned. … I wish this were an April Fool’s Day joke…but it’s not.

The state of Maine is on the verge of implementing “rights” for “transgender” students to use opposite-sex restrooms in schools — following the passage of a homosexual/transgender law. Grade school boys who think they’re “girls” would be able to use the girls’ restrooms…. I wish this were an April Fool’s Day joke (and so do Maine’s parents)…but it’s not.

Chai Feldblum

President Obama made a recess appointment of lesbian activist and Georgetown law professor Chai Feldblum to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The EEOC is the federal agency charged with enforcing employment anti-“discrimination” laws. Prof. Feldblum has determined that homosexual sex is “moral” and signed on to an extremist document called “Beyond Marriage” — which advocates government recognition of “committed, loving households in which there is more than one conjugal partner.” Feldblum now says it was a mistake to sign the manifesto — which also states that “Queer couples who decide to jointly create and raise a child with another queer person or couple, in two households” – should be recognized as “families” and treated like traditional marriages. Can you spell S-e-x-u-a-l A-n-a-r-c-h-y?

Moreover, Feldblum has written that in employment, newfangled “gay rights” almost always should trump Americans’ religious freedoms — whenever the advancement of “gay equality” collides with the moral freedom of those who disagree with homosexuality (think: Boy Scouts). Thus, in the “zero-sum game” (Feldblum’s words) between homosexuals’ demands that their lifestyle be accommodated — and the liberty of religious people NOT to do so — the Christians lose. … I wish this were an April Fool’s Day joke…but it’s not.

Army Lt. Gen. Benjamin Mixon: rebuked for opposing Obama's plan to homosexualize the U.S. military.

A decorated general, Lt. Gen. Benjamin Mixon, commander, U.S. Army Pacific, was strongly rebuked by Defense Sec. Robert Gates and Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, for publicly opposing President Obama’s plan to homosexualize the U.S. military. Gates is making it harder to report (and thus expel) open homosexuals in the Armed Forces — a clear violation of existing U.S. law banning homosexual servicemen. (Obama is above the law.) Meanwhile, Marine General James Conway, leery of Obama’s plan, has proposed homosexual-only housing for “gay” Marines — to protect the privacy of normal Marines. … I wish this were an April Fool’s Day joke (and so do many in our military) … but it’s not.

The proposed federal “Employment Nondiscrimination Act” (ENDA) [S. 1584/ H.R. 3017] would create nationwide job “rights” based on homosexuality, bisexuality and transsexuality – enforced by Feldblum’s EEOC. The bill would expand “civil rights” to include protection based on “gender-related identity, appearance, or mannerisms or other gender-related characteristics of an individual, with or without regard to the individual’s designated sex at birth.” (No joke – don’t you just love Washington?) That means when Johnny’s 2nd-grade teacher, Mr. Paul Parker, decides he wants to “transition” to become “Ms. Paulette Parker,” the school must accommodate his/her deviant “gender” choice. Parents who don’t approve of cross-dressing teachers as classroom role models for their impressionable children would be told that under ENDA, the school cannot “discriminate.” Hence parents would be forced to either pull their child from the school or subject him or her to a teacher who daily models deviant, destructive conduct…. I wish this were an April Fool’s Day joke…but it’s not.

Cultural degradation, the war against Christianity, and the corruption of children are no laughing matters. It’s now or never for conservatives, Christians and moral-minded citizens to fight back to preserve our nation and its Judeo-Christian heritage. Otherwise, due to the relentless push to radically transform our society by the pro-homosexual, secular Left and its liberal media cheerleaders, the idea of America actually being a nation “under God” will become … well … a very bad joke.
