Stand For Truth with an End-of-Year Gift to AFTAH!
December 27th, 2007
AFTAH’s recent appearance on FOX’s Hannity & Colmes exposed millions of Americans to the reality that San Francisco now “tolerates” open nudity and perversion on its streets, while House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other city leaders beholden to powerful homosexual activists do nothing. Click on http://www.americansfortruth.org/donate/ to make a year-end, tax-deductible gift to support AFTAH’s critical work.

“I give to Americans For Truth to preserve my children’s future. I cannot fight the fight full-time like AFTAH does, but I can help with my resources.

Dear ‘American For Truth,’
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and are enjoying this blessed season. Please consider an end-of-year, tax-deductible gift to Americans For Truth to help us start 2008 on solid footing. You can give safely online at http://www.americansfortruth.org/donate/.
AFTAH is one of the few groups that unapologetically and aggressively confronts the homosexual/transsexual lobby, which is one of the most dangerous and evil movements facing America. Why do I say that? Because in the name of something noble (“civil rights”), homosexual activists promote the state-enforced acceptance of immoral, destructive behavior — and even corrupt schoolchildren through pro-homosexuality lessons that manipulate innocent minds.
This agenda directly threatens our cherished religious and First Amendment freedoms — while undermining historic faith and Biblical morality by claiming that somehow, 5,000 years of Judeo-Christian teaching and tradition are wrong and homosexuality is actually a “gift from God”!
Just another lie created by a movement built upon lies. Why is it that so many people are intimidated by this deceitful lobby, or are afraid to speak out against the pro-homosexual propaganda that is everywhere in the media and popular culture?
At Americans For Truth, we are not afraid, and we are not retreating. I had a revelation two weeks ago while speaking at a gathering of pro-family leaders in Ohio. A veteran pro-life activist heard my speech and later told me that he was simply unaware of how multifaceted and deep is the network of organizations dedicated solely to promoting homosexuality and gender confusion in the USA. The following organizations collectively spend tens of millions of dollars every year, are highly specialized, and are focused like a laser beam on normalizing homosexuality in the culture — in our laws, the media, Hollywood, schools and even our churches:
Human Rights Campaign: Lobbying/Political Action
National Gay and Lesbian Task Force: Grassroots Organizing
Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network (GLSEN): Transforming K-12 Schools/Colleges
Parents, Family and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG): Cultural Acceptance/Lobbying/Schools
Lambda Legal: Changing the Law/Pro-homosexual lawsuits
ACLU Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Project: Lawsuits
Servicemembers Legal Defense Network: Military
Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD): Media/Hollywood
National Center for Lesbian Rights: Lesbian Parenthood/Child Custody
National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association: Changing Media from within
GenderPac: Redefining Gender Norms/’Transgender’ Lobbying
Soulforce: Redefining Biblical Beliefs as “Homophobia’/Propagandizing Christian Colleges
Gay & Lesbian Advocates and Defenders: Lobbying/Law/”Same-sex Marriage”
I thought to myself: if this savvy, pro-family hero was unaware of the size and strength of the “Lavender Army” (and the above list is far from comprehensive), then how ignorant is the typical American of what we’re up against?
Curiously, my new friend’s comment gave me renewed hope. Yes, the hour is late, and our enemies are rich and powerful by worldly standards. But they lack basic truth, and in fact they fear it — such as the sobering truth that homosexuality can never be “equal” to the natural family and marriage; in fact, homosexual behaviors lead to death and disease. Or the simple reality that men and women can overcome homosexuality with a loving God’s help.
This is where Americans For Truth comes in. The reason homosexual activists vilify us; the reason they monitor our every word, and why they barrage us with vile e-mails and cynically accuse us of “hate” — is that deep down they are afraid of the truth getting out. Each manifestation of truth — like our San Francisco video, which shocks even the most jaded Culture Warriors to whom we have shown it — dispels a thousand “gay” lies and tired, liberal clichés! And truth has a way of inevitably surfacing over time, no matter how biased the media are.
Please help us today with a year-end, tax-deductible gift to help fulfill Americans For Truth’s mission of answering the modern homosexual movement’s lies, and the media’s mendacity, with facts and truth: http://www.americansfortruth.org/donate/. From the bottom of my heart, I thank each of you who has helped to sustain AFTAH with your generosity and prayers.
God bless you, and Happy New Year. I look forward to a new year of standing with you for what’s right in 2008!
Peter LaBarbera

P.S. You can give safely online at http://www.americansfortruth.org/donate/. We receive gifts totaling in the tens of thousands of dollars, but that does not compare to the tens of millions that our opponents raise to promote unhealthy lifestyles, even to children. Please give faithfully and regularly so that we can continue to defend God’s truth on a daily basis.
Richard from Inverness, Illinois, a father of three young children, recently gave $1,000 to Americans for Truth. He explains why:
“I give to Americans For Truth to preserve my children’s future. I cannot fight the fight full-time like AFTAH does, but I can help with my resources. There are many militant groups that are aggressively trying to steal my children’s innocence under the guise of ‘tolerance and acceptance.’ We need AFTAH’s voice. Please join me in doing what you can to help Americans For Truth stay in the battle against secular pressure groups crusading for unhealthy and immoral lifestyles for our children.”

A “Gay Man” Trapped in a Woman’s Body and Other Nonsense
December 22nd, 2007
“Transgender” confusion and perversion — such as the anti-Christian, drag-queen mock “nuns” who make up the “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence” — follow in the footsteps of the homosexual variety. In Massachusetts, a very confused female student who considers herself a “gay male” is suing for the “right” to use the men’s locker room. The local newspaper uses the pronoun “his,” bowing to the female student’s (current) “gender identity.”
By J. Matt Barber, Concerned Women for America
Talk radio host Michael Savage doesn’t mince words. He often says that “liberalism is a mental disorder.” He’s right. Liberal ideology and political correctness, infused with public policy, begets social insanity.
Case in point: A recent report on a popular homosexual “news” site declares, “A transgendered student says he is the victim of discrimination at a small Massachusetts community college because he is biologically female.”
Say what? “He” is “female”? Welcome to PC-ville. Come for the oxymoron, stay for the cognitive dissonance.
In other news, “French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte says he is the victim of discrimination because he is biologically Bob from Detroit.”
Apparently, this clearly confused 20-year-old woman who “presents as a male and wears male clothing” is upset that Northern Essex Community College in Haverhill, Massachusetts, will not allow her to undress, shower or otherwise cavort with the fellows in the men’s locker room. She’s reportedly filed an “affirmative action complaint” against the school.
Even Haverhill’s local newspaper, the Eagle-Tribune, plays along, saying that she was “denied the use of the men’s locker room … because of his female anatomy.”
“His female anatomy”!?
Okay, wait a minute. … Is this one of those, “it depends on what the meaning of the word ‘his’ is” moments?
But it gets worse. The paper goes on to explain that this young woman – er, man … whatever – actually identifies as a “gay male.” It explains that her, “public unveiling as a transgender gay male happened as an adult two years ago. His designation means he has a female body, but identifies as a male and is sexually attracted to men.”
Geeze-oh-Pete! My head hurts. Can this be for real? How can any newspaper that wants to be taken seriously report this with a straight face? A “gay” man trapped in a woman’s body? And all this time I thought they were just straight gals in Dockers and flannel. When I was a kid we called them “tomboys.” They were great fun to play softball with, but they still had to shower with the rest of the girls. What unenlightened bigots we were back then. ….
Is Nancy Pelosi Right? Can God ‘Bless’ America with Homosexual Activism?
December 20th, 2007
Can God bless homosexual activism? Nancy Pelosi thinks so. Speaking before the world’s most powerful homosexual pressure group, she said: “God has certainly blessed America with the work of the Human Rights Campaign.” Help Americans For Truth oppose such lies with a tax-deductible, year-end gift.
Recently, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) appeared before a massive fundraiser put on by the largest homosexual pressure group in the world, the Human Rights Campaign, to accept their 2007 National Equality award. In her speech — which you can watch by clicking HERE — Pelosi praised HRC “for being a powerful and positive counterbalance to the voices of hate.” Thus she confuses, as does the group that honors her, defense of marriage and the natural family — and opposition to homosexuality — with “hate.”
Here is how Speaker Pelosi ended her speech:
“Thank you, HRC. May God bless you. God has certainly blessed America with the work of the Human Rights Campaign.”

A Note from Americans For Truth to Our Supporters:
By Peter LaBarbera
They have the power, the money and the influence.
We have the Truth.
They have Hollywood and the media.
We have the Truth.
They have the schools, the universities, the professional organizations, the corporate “diversity” programs.
We have the Truth. And the simple truth is that homosexual behavior is always wrong, but it can be overcome — like any sin — in a person’s life through the power of the Christ of Christmas, who came not to “condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.” (John 3:17)

Sandy Rios and Bob Knight Discuss Philadelphia Treachery against Boy Scouts
December 19th, 2007Click HERE to listen to WYLL-Chicago talk show host and Culture Campaign President Sandy Rios’ interview with Bob Knight of the Culture and Media Institute. The two discuss the City of Philadelphia’s decision — spurred on by homosexual City Solicitor Romulo Diaz Jr. — to evict the Philadelphia Scouts “Cradle of Liberty Council” unless the Scouts came up with $200,000 rent money for an historic city building that THEY donated to the city. Homosexual activists have pressured the city’s leaders to force the Scouts to submit to the city’s pro-homosexual “sexual orientation” nondiscrimination law, or lose their symbolic $1 per year lease to the city.
The pro-family Lifesite news reports:
The famous Beaux Arts style building was built and paid for by the Scouts, and turned over to the city with the understanding that the Scouts would be allowed to remain in it rent-free “in perpetuity.”
City solicitor Romulo L. Diaz Jr. gave Philadelphia’s “Cradle of Liberty Council” of the Scouts until Monday this week to renounce their policy. The Cradle of Liberty Council is the largest Scouts council in Pennsylvania, and is the third largest in the entire Boy Scouts of America. The “City of Brotherly Love” has told the Scouts they have until June 1 to vacate their historic building.
A U.S. Supreme Court decision in 2000 said the Boy Scouts were a private organisation who had the right to bar anyone they chose from their ranks. But the city of Philadelphia has a policy that no organisation that “discriminates” may receive public subsidies and City Council is backing Diaz’s interpretation of the law.
Diaz, an open and practising homosexual, told a local radio interviewer he would begin looking for a new tenant for the building immediately.
The pressure started in 2003 when then, mayor of Philadelphia, John F. Street, started coming under pressure from homosexual activists, powerful in local politics, to force the Scouts to accept homosexuality, claiming that their refusal violated the city’s 1982 “fair practices” law.
Mark Chilutti, a member of the Cradle of Liberty Council executive board said, “We’re ignoring the deadline. It was the least bad option we have.”

Mike Heath on ‘Evanjellyfish’
December 17th, 2007By Mike Heath, Christian Civic League of Maine
That is what Coach Dave Daubenmire calls them. He is referring to Christian leaders who choose Herod over John. I imagine them in the crowd gathered around John the Baptist out in the wilderness. They are the ones that started quaking when John stopped focusing on urging individuals to repent and be baptized. They became fearful when John turned his preaching on the political elites. The Bible doesn’t record every conversation John had, of course. It does hit the highlights, however. I think John probably made a lot of powerful people uncomfortable during his short time of ministry. We only know about King Herod.
John confronted Herod. He didn’t hold anything back. Herod was a Roman tyrant who literally had the legal right to kill whoever he pleased. John’s society recognized no individual rights that superseded Herod’s tyrannical power, unlike our great country. The [Christian Civic League of Maine] is exactly like John the Baptist in the moment he publicly condemned Herod for sleeping with his brother’s wife. There are some in the crowd who are less pleased with us than they are afraid of Herod….
…I used to care what people like this pastor think. I’m teaching myself to care more about what God thinks.
I used to think that Chicago historian Martin Marty is right. He claimed the worst sin is to be mean. While most Christians worked on fine tuning “nice” Satan made sodomy a virtue. Imagine it. The once great Church of England is splitting down the middle over nonsense. I moved on from Martin Marty to Thomas Oden. He is a scholar who wrote a book called “Requiem.” He urges men like me to become known as “young fogeys” for refusing to be intimidated by the sexual orientation mob.
I’m now convinced that nice is merely an excuse to avoid controversy and righteous indignation. Christians don’t need to get angry about what is being done to their families, children, grandchildren and neighborhoods. They just need to get Biblical. They need to take a stand for common sense. They need to invite everyone to be honest about sexual morality. Most people think sodomy is perverted, disgusting and miserable — and worse. Fine by me. We should encourage everyone who believes that to say it….
DiversityInc Mag Publisher Visconti Compares LaBarbera to Slavery Advocate
December 14th, 2007
DiversityInc magazine co-founder Luke Visconti (lvisconti@diversityinc.com) showed his own (modern) bigotry and disrespect for people of faith by comparing Americans For Truth president Peter LaBarbera to a 19th Century Christian slavery advocate because LaBarbera opposes homosexuality and pro-homosexual corporate policies. The strongly pro-“gay” DiversityInc disinvited the AFTAH founder to a “Religion in the Workplace” panel discussion after pro-homosexual panelists threatened to boycott the discussion if LaBarbera was allowed to participate.
By Peter LaBarbera
Dear Christian or morality advocate who opposes homosexuality:
Did you know that in the eyes of some liberal, pro-homosexual advocates, you are the moral equivalent of the KKK? Actually, this is nothing new: radical “gay” activists have been making this absurd and hateful analogy for years. This is why I tell religious people all the time: disabuse yourself of the idea that homosexual activists and their liberal fellow travelers “respect” your faith or your right to live it out in the public square. They don’t; they despise your Bible-centered morality, and are quite willing to demonize you for it.
Increasingly, the liberals’ contempt for Christians and religious traditionalists is “out of the closet,” even as they continue with their hollow pleas for ‘tolerance’ and ‘diversity.’
I sent the following note to DiversityInc Executive Editor Barbara Frankel, in response to a column by Luke Visconti, co-founder of DiversityInc, explaining why they were justified in disinviting me to their “Religion in the Workplace” panel discussion. Essentially Visconti’s argument is this: “There is no need to balance human rights,” especially since I [and by extension, other pro-family leaders opposed to homosexuality] am the moral equivalent of slavery advocates.
Frankel and DiversityInc did allow me a full-page column to express my disappointment with their decision to drop Americans For Truth from their panel (see below), to which Visconti was responding.
Visconti’s column cites a 19th Century pastor who used the Bible to justify slavery, and claimed that I am his modern-day equivalent. He also cites the Ku Klux, fascism and other evil or misguided causes which were defended by Christian leaders. (We apologize but the DiversityInc site is having problems so we are not able to provide excerpts of his column at this time.)
In response to my incredulous question to Ms. Frankel — “As an opponent of homosexuality, I am the moral equivalent of a slavery advocate?” — Visconti wrote me:
To answer your question: Yes.
There’s one point on which I agree with you: The discussion should have been in person. I appreciate you taking the offer of writing the column.
Here is my note to Frankel:
Barbara, so that’s it?… As an opponent of homosexuality, I am the moral equivalent of a slavery advocate? I shudder at the arrogance — and insulting bigotry — of your “white guy” founder, Luke Visconti [Visconti has a column in his magazine called, “Ask the White Guy”]. I suppose my African-American friends who agree with me on marriage and sexuality issues are also to be compared with slavery advocates?

The ‘Gay’ Press: Where ‘AIDS Prevention’ and Promiscuity Promotion Co-Exist
December 12th, 2007
Photo on website of the “The Crew Club,” a 24/7 homosexual bathhouse where men go for anonymous sodomitic encounters with other men. Homosexual media like the Washington Blade — which ran a full-page Crew Club ad next to a “World AIDS Day” ad — promote “AIDS awareness” and homosexual promiscuity at the same time. The Crew Club should be shut down as a public health hazard.
By Peter LaBarbera
On November 30, 2007, the homosexual newspaper Washington Blade ran the following side-by-side, full-page ads: 1) PAGE 2: ad highlights “World AIDS Day 2007,” paid for by the Whitman-Walker Clinic; and 2) PAGE 3: ad for “Crew Club,” a 24/7 bathhouse in Washington, D.C., where men go to “hook up” sexually with other men.
The Blade’s ad placement is a microcosm of everything that is wrong with homosexual activists’ hypocritical approach toward HIV/AIDS. They preach “safer sex” but refuse to take a “just say no” approach toward sex businesses like Crew Club that foster anonymous sodomies. Meanwhile, they clamor year after year for increased federal AIDS funding, even though HIV/AIDS research is already massively over-funded compared to other diseases that are NOT linked to immoral conduct.
Here are excerpts from the two Blade ads:
PAGE 2, Washington Blade: “World AIDS DAY 2007” … After 26 years of HIV/AIDS:
- 500,000 Americans dead of AIDS
- 1,000,000 Americans HIV-positive
- 15,000 dead in the DC area
- 30,000 in DC area HIV-positive
“Join Whitman-Walker Clinic for World AIDS Day. Cherish those lost. Remember those still living. Renew hope for a future free of HIV/AIDS….”
PAGE 3, Washington Blade: “A WORKOUT YOU’LL NEVER FORGET”
“…Private Rooms, Gym & Cardio, Steam Bath, Lockers, Sauna, Much More, 24-7” [shows man grasping another man], The Crew Club, 1321 14th St., NW, DC….
Editor’s Note: “private rooms” are for sexual encounters. An international homosexual “cruising for sex” website describes Crew Club as: “Bathhouse with limited facilities. Open 24 hours.” The comments from the cruising site make clear that men go to the Crew Club to find sex with other men. (I state this obvious point because homosexual activists like Rick Garcia of Equality Illinois sometimes pretend to the media not to know what goes on at these perversion centers.)
