For years Steve McConkey of 4 WINDS Christian Athletics has been a lonely, brave and principled voice for Christians against the promotion of homosexuality and sexual sin in sports. Steve is spot on here regarding the Olympics’ capitulation to the LGBTQ agenda. There is a lot about the homosexuality and “transgender” debates that doesn’t get the critical attention it deserves because we are preoccupied with legal and public policy issues. One such thing is the cultural corruption and the unspoken tyrannies that come with it when the evil of sodomy is aggressively promoted as a good (Isaiah 5:20), and human wrongs are elevated to protected “rights.”
Publicly proud homosexuals like Olympians Gus Kenworthy and Adam Rippon are driven by a need to justify their errant sexual choices. Tragically, Western culture now celebrates their shared sin, shamelessly flaunted and hyped by the media in these South Korean Winter Olympics, while punishing moral voices who disagree. Many “straight” athletes are now intimidated from saying anything critical about the behavior of “gay” teammates or “out” sport celebrities due to a fear of being branded a “hater,” and having their career destroyed.
It is not enough to demand the mere “right” to dissent from the politically correct chorus championing homosexuality; we must find ways to be as aggressive in championing godly, biologically-correct morality as LGBTQ advocates are in defying it. Here is McConkey’s release on the International Olympic Committee’s troubling “gay” embrace. — Peter LaBarbera, AFTAH; Twitter: @PeterLaBarbera

MADISON, Wis., Feb. 15, 2018 /Standard Newswire/ — Olympic skater Adam Rippon and skier Gus Kenworthy are promoting homosexuality as normal behavior. They are the first openly gay Winter Olympians from the United States.
They have been verbally attacking Vice President Mike Pence. Kenworthy recently appeared on the Ellen Degeneres show criticizing Pence. Hillary Clinton praised the gay athletes and said she will be focusing on them as she watches the Games.
“Adam Rippon and Gus Kenworthy will be used by the Olympic Committee and the press to further the sin of homosexuality,” states 4 Winds Christian Athletics President Steve McConkey. “The Olympic Committee has promoted transgenders, intersex athletes without proper testing, and same sex marriage.
“Olympic athletes are encouraged to support the LGBT community according to Principle 6. If Christian athletes say homosexuality is a sin, they could face consequences. The press tried to destroy a prominent gold medalist for saying homosexuality was wrong. There were talks that the person could lose their Olympic Ambassadorship.”
