From Twitter – Homosexuality: Just Wrong Behavior that Can Be Overcome
April 25th, 2020
Charlene Cothran of The Evidence Ministry.
Folks, I am active on Twitter as one of the few advocates willing to take on the powerful LGBTQueer (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer) movement, directly and unapologetically. Here below is a tweet I just posted that captures the essence of what this issue is really about–i.e., minus the media hype and “progressive” myths.
The photo is of Charlene Cothran, a former “gay” activist and LGBT publisher who accepted Jesus Christ and left lesbianism many years ago. Charlene is shown speaking at the very first Americans For Truth banquet in 2007, where she shared the amazing story of how the Lord worked in her life. Please go to her website, The Evidence Ministry, and support Charlene’s important work.
Please click HERE on my Twitter feed to read the hateful responses to this tweet and others like it. Twitter’s activist population is heavily tilted to the left, and many of them simply despise Christians, especially those willing to defend God’s truth about sexual morality.
I could fill a very large book with all the “#GayHate” tweets that have come my way since joining Twitter in 2009. (A lot of them smear me as a closeted homosexual–a lie they can’t seem to stop repeating.) But I’m glad I’m there along with a few others representing time-tested morality, sexual sanity, and hopefully, in my own flawed way, Jesus, whose love and forgiveness all of us sinners desperately need, whether we admit it or not. God bless. — Peter LaBarbera. AFTAH; Twitter: @PeterLaBarbera
P.S. If you would like to find the peace of God that Charlene did when she turned her life over to Christ, visit this page to hear the “Good News” of the free gift of salvation, told by the late Billy Graham.
In truth, homosexuality is just another sin that men & women fall into. Not an identity. Not worthy of celebration. Just wrong behavior that can be overcome when a sinner humbly accepts God's forgiveness through #Jesus' act of supreme love on the cross:https://t.co/SeSD6lFs0H pic.twitter.com/eKCBxPcwRP

Queer Quote – Yale Prof Michael Warner: Alfred Kinsey’s ‘Unreliable, Exaggerated’ Data Helped Normalize Aberrant Sex
April 23rd, 2020
By Peter LaBarbera, April 23, 2020
Michael Warner is a Yale University professor and progressive “queer” theorist/activist who has been at war with the concept of “normal” for many years. In his book, “The Trouble with Normal: Sex, Politics, and the Ethics of Queer Life” (The Free Press: 1999), he writes about the influence of recklessly corrupt yet groundbreaking “sexologist” Alfred Kinsey. The latter’s 1948 book, “Sexual Behavior in the Human Male,” has in recent decades been exposed by Judith Reisman and others as the junkiest of “junk science” (it even contains heinous “data” from a child molester documenting his crimes against children—see photo of Table 34 at bottom):
Warner writes:
“More than anyone else, Alfred Kinsey was able to exploit the confusion at the heart of normal. One of his most dramatic points was that nonnormative sexual activities are, in fact, the statistical norm. Using his (admittedly unreliable) figures for things like extramarital sex and same-sex encounters, he calculated that 95 percent of the male population had committed some illicit sexual activities punishable by law…. Kinsey almost certainly exaggerated these figures, if only inadvertently through his irregular sampling. Yet the cataclysmic cultural impact of his study depended less on any of his numbers than on his central point about the contradictory idea of the normal. The idea of normal sexuality, he argued, is too distorted by moralism to be an accurate picture of normal behavior, and if people really were willing to accept behavior norms as normal, then their sexual morality would have to be radically different.”
________________________
Postscript 1) Warner’s elevation at Yale, which was founded by Christian believers in 1701 for the promulgation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, is a testimony itself to the triumph of abnormality in American institutions, mostly due to the Left’s relentless pro-perversion activism. Put another way, he embodies the erosion of Judeo-Christian (biblical) norms that invariably comes when a nation strays from its more godly heritage.
Postscript 2) Although Warner is a “sex-positive” radical who is ideologically on the LGBTQueer left, he is regrettably accurate when it comes to the triumph of moral relativism. Most Americans now possess ideas of what is “normal” (and also “moral”) that not only conflict with historic and biblical norms, but also with widely-accepted sexual standards from just a few decades ago. Of course, this applies to the revolutionary “normalization” of homosexuality—look at Gallup’s annual poll on Americans’ attitudes toward homosexual behavior: from 57 percent of Americans who said homosexual “relations [sex] between consenting adults” should NOT be legal in 1986, to 73 percent in who said it SHOULD be legal in 2019, just 33 years later.
Another example is porn-inspired sex acts: anti-porn advocates, both feminists and social conservatives, have observed that the mainstreaming and proliferation of pornography has changed expectations of sexual behavior for younger men and women. This has led to the “normalizing” of unnatural acts that are common in porn, like anal sodomy (anal sex), among straights–which I presume Warner applauds. Such deviant practices are in turn celebrated in pop culture and taught as an acceptable sexual option to children through liberalized sex-ed in schools, and the downward moral spiral continues.
Video: ‘Dark Agenda’ Author David Horowitz Discusses Left’s War on Christian America
April 22nd, 2020This excellent speech a year ago by former leftist David Horowitz is worth 50 minutes of your time. If you’re like me, you will learn a lot of things you probably should have known–such as the short, innocuous prayer that was part of the Supreme Court’s 1962 ruling (Engel v. Vitale) stripping prayer from our public schools. Enjoy. — Peter LaBarbera, AFTAH.org; Twitter: @PeterLaBarbera
“Almighty God, we acknowledge our dependence upon Thee, and we beg Thy blessings upon us, our parents, our teachers and our country. Amen.

LaBarbera, Mefferd Discuss FDA’s Sudden Change in Gay Blood Donation Policy
April 21st, 2020Folks, I was interviewed Monday as a guest on on Christian talk show host Janet Mefferd’s program, “Janet Mefferd Today.” We discussed the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) surprise move to reduce the deferral time for blood donations from “men who have sex with men” from one year to three months–justified as necessary due to blood shortages during the coronavirus pandemic.
Here is a separate SoundCloud link to the program, or just use the link below:
Here is Janet’s description of the program:
Why has the FDA fast-tracked the ability of homosexual men to donate blood during the coronoavirus pandemic, and what are the real health risks? Plus: Franklin Graham fires back after taking constant flak from Leftists who criticize the Samaritan’s Purse field hospital in New York. Their reason? Graham has a biblical view of homosexuality. I’ll talk about it all with Peter LaBarbera, president of Americans for Truth about Homosexuality. That and more on Monday’s JANE MEFFERD TODAY.
The Republican homosexual activist group Log Cabin Republicans quickly boasted that it had worked with allies within the Trump administration for the change, but in one of his daily COVID-19 pressers, Trump said he did not even know about the new policy.
Veteran observers will remember that it was President Obama’s FDA that ushered in a radical change for homosexual male blood donations in 2015, reducing the FDA policy from a de facto lifetime ban to a one-year deferral.
Now that one-year deferral becomes just three months and, predictably, neither the Log Cabin Republicans nor any other LGBTQueer lobby group is satisfied. All are demanding no deferral time on “MSM” blood donations at all, in the name of “equality” and “ending discrimination.”
The FDA change requires a post-coronavirus review. The FDA’s special policy is made necessary by the high-risk sexual behaviors engaged in by “men who have sex with men”–behaviors that have historically made homosexual men vastly disproportionately affected by STDs, especially HIV, compared to the rest of the population. AFTAH will examine this rushed policy liberalization in depth in coming posts.–Peter LaBarbera, AFTAH.org
Radical Washington State ‘SeXXX Ed’ Bill–Pushed by Two Lesbian Democrats–Signed into Law by Gov. Inslee
April 20th, 2020Repeal effort underway as concerned parents mobilize
Say No to Planned Parenthood “SeXXX Ed”: Pro-family Washington State citizens descend on the capitol building in Olympia to voice their strong objection to Senate Bill 5395, the “comprehensive SeXXX ed bill,” on March 2, 2020. In late March, the bill was signed into law by Gov. Jay Inslee (D). An effort is underway to repeal it by referendum; see this “Informed Parents of Washington” Facebook page. Photo: Mary Locke.
_____________________________________
Dear AFTAH Readers:
The “progressive,” pro-LGBTQ, “comprehensive sex education” agenda is harmful to the very children it purports to help and protect. On March 27, Washington State Gov. Jay Inslee (D) signed into law Senate Bill 5395, which critics have labeled the “Comprehensive “SeXXX Ed” Bill, and which has generated some of the largest protests ever seen in the capital, Olympia (see photo above).
Two openly homosexual, pro-Planned Parenthood Democratic lawmakers, Sen. Claire Wilson and Speaker Laurie Jinkins, were key sponsors of the bill, which was passed in partisan, Democrat-led votes over the objections of tens of thousands of concerned Washington citizens. Here is an excellent piece on Senate Bill 5395 by Seattle conservative talk show host Todd Herman, who occasionally subs for Rush Limbaugh.
A growing coalition of citizens has formed to fight SB 5395, led mostly by outraged moms and dads, and grandparents who cannot believe what “comprehensive,” “age-appropriate” sex-ed means to the the “progressives” who dominate sexual ed and diversity programs in Washington (and across the country). See the “Informed Parents of Washington” Facebook page HERE.
Pro-family advocate Mary Locke, a MassResistance activist who has done yeoman’s work alerting others to the leftist educational extremism in her state, wrote this letter to her local newspaper, the Federal Way Mirror; as of press time it had yet to be printed.
Parents across the nation are waking up to the threat of radical sex-ed agendas and pro-LGBTQueer indoctrination in schools. Hopefully it is not too late to turn this around and restore common sense and respect for time-tested morality. Take Action: Go HERE to learn more about the referendum to repeal SB 5395. — Peter LaBarbera, AFTAH; Twitter: @PeterLaBarbera

Children Are on the Front Lines of a Raging Culture War
By Mary Locke
Thanks a lot, Washington state DEMOCRATS! You handed the pornographic sexxx ed bill 5395 to Governor Jay Inslee. This was a party line vote.
No Republican voted to mandate Seattle-style sexxx ed.
Homosexuals Claire Wilson, Democrat State Senator/30th district and House Speaker and Democrat Laurie Jinkins have now MANDATED their warped sense of sexuality on the public-school children of Washington State.
Wilson, Jinkins and all the Democrat leaders of this state need to take off their rainbow-colored goggles and look at the potential damage they have just set in motion.
Wilson and Speaker Jinkins and all Democrats get copious amounts of campaign contributions from Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider. Planned Parenthood is also the biggest beneficiary of “their bill,” 5395 sexxx ed.
Planned Parenthood is mentioned over 50 times in the Sexxx ed curriculum’s “FLASH and KNOW.”
Follow the money.
Planned Parenthood donates to Democrats. Democrats pass a radical sexxx ed law. Planned Parenthood then gets a steady stream of customers.
The approved curriculum promotes fornication and homosexuality, therefore children are told they need birth control and abortions. And Planned Parenthood is right there for the kids.
So, children grades K-12, will have to navigate the sexxx ed grooming that has been approved. Linda Harvey summarized this cultural struggle: “Children are on the front lines of a raging culture war.” Traditional Christians are losing the battle.

Audio: LaBarbera Slams Pete Buttigieg’s Defiant ‘Gay Christianity’ as ‘Big Lie’
February 12th, 2020In “Crosstalk” interview, AFTAH president questions why conservatives are so reluctant to criticize candidate’s homosexuality and deceptive theology
Dear Readers,
I had the opportunity to appear as a guest on VCY America’s “Crosstalk” program Monday, and had a wide-ranging discussion on the LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisesxual, Transgender, Queer) with host Jim Schneider. You can listen to it HERE or click the link below. We had a wide-ranging discussion but I honed in on the candidacy of former South Bend, Indiana mayor Pete Buttigieg and his “gay Christian” propaganda.
We will have a lot more to say about “Mayor Pete,” as the media so affectionately call him, but the gist of what I said on Crosstalk is that Buttigieg is a phony of the highest order, yet a dangerous propagandist for the homosexual movement. Above is a photo of him kissing his “husband,” Chasten. Though the media and the Left (and even many “conservatives”) champion Buttigieg according to the Left’s corrupted “civil rights” narrative, his bid for presidential power represents an immense assault on morality–teaching all the wrong lessons to a public already deeply confused by LGBTQ propaganda.

Prager to ‘Amoral’ Christianity Today: This Is Why I Support Donald Trump
January 1st, 2020This December 24 article by conservative talk show hosts Dennis Prager was reprinted by Charisma Magazine and other other sites. Like so many of us, Prager was outraged by the Dec. 19 Christianity Today editorial calling for the impeachment of President Trump, in the name of Christian morality.
Prager is not a Christian. I am. And I can say that this sanctimonious piece by CT‘s outgoing editor-in-chief, Mark Galli, epitomizes how inept, naive, arrogant and unthinking believers can be when it comes to politics. Galli essentially calls into question evangelical believers’ commitment to Jesus Christ if they support Trump: “Consider how your justification of Mr. Trump influences your witness to your Lord and Savior.” Yep, but can we also consider the worldview of most of Trump’s Democratic foes?: radically pro-abortion, pro-homosexuality, pro-socialist (to one degree or another), pro-illegal-alien, anti-religious-freedom. And missing from the CT piece is the entire context of Trump’s presidency: how has been hounded by a cabal of Deep State Obama holdovers using dirty and treacherous tactics from BEFORE he was president.
Liberalism corrupts religion like it does everything else, but the good news here is that the overwhelming majority of Christians won’t care one wit about Christianity Today‘s short-sighted scolds on November 3, 2020, when they cast their ballots. In fact, Trump’s backers are now resistant to leftist media bias, which only motivates them to support Trump more fervently. That includes politically correct bias from an unlikely source, like the once-soul-winning magazine founded by the late Billy Graham himself. — Peter LaBarbera, AFTAH.org

CT’s Editorial Confirms One of the Sadder Realizations of My Life
By Dennis Prager, Dec. 25, 2019
The editor-in-chief of Christianity Today, Mark Galli, wrote an editorial calling for the impeachment of President Donald Trump.
In my view, this editorial only serves to confirm one of the sadder realizations of my life: that religious conviction guarantees neither moral clarity nor common sense.
The gist of the editorial — and of most religious and conservative opposition to President Trump — is that any good the president has done is dwarfed by his character defects.
This is an amoral view that says more about Galli than it does about the president. He and the people who share his opinion are making the following statement: No matter how much good this president does, it is less important than his character flaws.
Why is this wrong?
First, because it devalues policies that benefit millions of people.
And second, because it is a simplistic view of character.
I do not know how to assess a person’s character — including my own — outside of how one’s actions affect others. Since I agree with almost all of President Trump’s actions as president and believe they have positively affected millions of people, I have to conclude that as president, Trump thus far has been a man of particularly good character.
Of course, if you think his policies have harmed millions of people, you will assess his character negatively. But that is not what never-Trump conservatives or Christians such as the Christianity Today editor-in-chief argue. They argue that his policies have indeed helped America (and even the world), but this fact is far less significant than his character.
In the words of Galli: “(I)t’s time to call a spade a spade, to say that no matter how many hands we win in this political poker game, we are playing with a stacked deck of gross immorality and ethical incompetence.”
This rhetorical sleight of hand reflects poorly on Galli’s intellectual and moral honesty.
Galli and every other Christian and conservative opponent of the president believe their concerns are moral, and that the president’s Christian and other conservative supporters are political.
This is simply wrong.
I and every other supporter of the president I know support him for moral reasons, not to win a “political poker game.” Galli’s view is purely self-serving; he’s saying, “We Christian and other conservative opponents of the president think in moral terms, while Christian and other conservative supporters of the president think in political terms.”
So, permit me to inform Galli and all the other people who consider themselves conservative and/or Christian that our support for the president is entirely moral.
— To us, putting pressure on the Iranian regime — one of the most evil and dangerous regimes on Earth — by getting out of the Iran nuclear deal made by former President Barack Obama is a moral issue. Even New York Times columnist Bret Stephens, who loathes Trump, has written how important the president’s rejection of the Obama-Iran agreement has been.
— To us, enabling millions of black Americans to find work — resulting in the lowest black unemployment rate ever recorded — is a moral issue.
— To us, more Americans than ever being employed and almost 4 million Americans freed from reliance on food stamps is a moral issue.
— To us, appointing more conservative judges than any president in history — over the same period of time — is a moral issue. That whether the courts, including the Supreme Court, are dominated by the left or by conservatives is dismissed by Galli as “political poker” makes one question not only Galli’s moral thinking but also his moral theology.
— To us, moving the American embassy to Israel’s capital city, Jerusalem — something promised by almost every presidential candidate — is a moral issue, not to mention profoundly courageous. And courage is a moral virtue.
— To us, increasing the U.S. military budget — after the severe cuts of the previous eight years — is a moral issue. As conservatives see it, the American military is the world’s greatest guarantor of world peace.
Yet, none of these things matter to Galli and other misguided Christians and conservatives. What matters more to them is Trump’s occasional crude language and intemperate tweets, what he said about women in a private conversation and his having committed adultery.
Regarding adultery, that sin is for spouses and God to judge. There is no connection between marital sexual fidelity and moral leadership. I wish there were. And as regards the “Access Hollywood” tape, every religious person, indeed every thinking person, should understand that there is no connection between what people say privately and their ability to be a moral leader. That’s why I wrote a column for the Wall Street Journal 20 years ago defending Hillary Clinton when she was charged with having privately expressed anti-Semitic sentiments.
That the editor of Christianity Today thinks the president’s personal flaws, whatever they might be, are more important than all the good he has done for conservatives, for Christians, for Jews, for blacks and for America tells us a lot … about Galli and the decline of Christian moral thought.
