have been very surprised and shocked in the last couple of days at
all the Christians who want us to stay “silent” on the issue of
Homosexuality - and make out that it is nothing ‘special’ - just
any old sin. They think it makes us “look bad” to speak up about

think what a lot of people don’t realize is that this issue is
specifically being used by the devil as the “leading edge” of his

of “secularism” massively amongst the youth. More that any single

about this for a moment. Today’s Homosexual movement is not just
about “practicing” Homosexuality. They are also about “preaching”
it and ‘converting’ the youth to embrace it as “good”. What
they push is actually “spiritual” propaganda - a false gospel of
‘sin-celebration’ that totally undermines the Bible. We need to
start seeing these activists as aggressive “preachers” of a new
religion - a religion designed to totally replace Christianity. These
are some of its most zealous ‘missionaries’. And they are
successfully “converting” the youth of all the earth.</b></font></font></p>

will notice that in the last 25 years there has been an enormous push
in the media to “normalize” Homosexuality. It used to be that two
men kissing would make everyone want to gag. But these activists knew
that if they put sympathetic “gay” characters again and again
into movies and TV shows, eventually they would wear down the
scruples of the audience. Comedies are especially helpful for this.
And gradually they have “converted” an entire generation of young
people to their cause. In this they have been overwhelmingly
successful. It may be the greatest “propaganda” victory ever. The
battle is already theirs. And they are using the media to spread it
more and more around the world.</b></font></font></p>

are not at “war” with individual ‘gay’ people. Quite the
opposite. But the movement and its message - that is a different
story. There is a war going on in the hearts and minds of today’s
youth. We are not to fight this in the “flesh” - with politics or
campaigning, etc. But we certainly are to raise our voices and to
loudly “speak the truth in love”. Otherwise the upcoming
generation will be lost to the most powerful and clever “false
