More Attacks on Conservative Values

Now that the 2006 fall elections are over, and we’ve seen typical Democrat legislation utilizing their new majority, we can expect to see more covert attacks on conservative values.

Creating special protections for homosexuals becomes “hate crimes.”

Forcing businesses to elevate homosexuality to civil rights status becomes the “Employment Non-Discrimination Act.”

Mainstreaming the homosexual lifestyle at the expense of morale in the Armed Forces becomes “The Military Readiness Enhancement Act.”

A state legislator in Maine recently introduced a bill to strip the clergy of the right to sign marriage licenses, thereby divorcing state-sanctioned marriage from religious ceremonies. Lawmakers in Maine have also introduced LD375, “an act to amend the Family Medical Leave Laws,” which would greatly expand the existing domestic partnership benefits. Mike Heath, Executive Director of the Christian Civic League of Maine, is working hard to push back the agenda by enlisting online activists to help him.

Montgomery County, MD, has implemented a new sex education curriculum that made minor changes since the 2005 version was thrown out by a federal judge. Minor changes include demonstrating a condom on a piece of wood instead of a cucumber and lessons on homosexuality conveniently omit the long list of religions that disapprove of it. The curriculum also avoids discussing health risks associated with certain homosexual-preferred sexual acts and stigmatizes those who disapprove of homosexuality by using the loaded term, “homophobia.”

Two citizens’ groups that oppose the curriculum, Citizens for a Responsible Curriculum (CRC) and Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays and Gays (PFOX), appealed the curriculum to the State Board of Education–but the county rushed the pilot program into use without even waiting for a ruling on whether it complies with state laws and regulations.

By these standards, we’ll soon be adding “homopediphile” and “homorapist” to sex ed. After all, those are just “lifestyles” or “sexual orientation.”
