THE GAY AGENDA BLUEPRT: A PLAN TO TRANSFORM AMERI

” There Kirk, a rearcher nropsychiatry, and Madsen, a public relatns nsultant, laid out a blueprt to fundamentally change Amerins’ attus toward homosexuals and homosexualy. In 1989 they expand that blueprt to a 398-page book tled After the Ball: How Ameri Will Conquer Its Fear and Hatred of Gays the 90s. Gallup polls 1989 showed that only 19 percent of Amerins believed people were born homosexual, wh 48 percent believg was due to environmental factors such as upbrgg.

By 2015 those numbers had dramatilly shifted to 51 percent believg homosexuals were born that way and only 30 percent attributg to other factors. (This is spe of the fact that extensive geic rearch and many studi of intil tws where only one was homosexual have disproven geic termism. Well-rearched surveys (as opposed to some wh markedly skewed sampl and/or methodology) have nsistently placed the homosexual populatn of Ameri at around 2 to 3 percent—yet the fluence of homosexuals on Amerin culture is vastly out of proportn wh their actual numbers.

The way to benumb raw sensivi about homosexualy is to have a lot of people talk a great al about the subject a ntral or supportive way... Constant talk builds the imprsn that public opn is at least divid on the subject, and that a sizable segment accepts or even practic homosexualy. In the early stag of any mpaign to reach straight Ameri, the mass should not be shocked and repelled by premature exposure to homosexual behavr self.

FALLY THE GREAT GAY AGENDA IS WORKG! TWICE AS MANY OF NOW INTIFY AS LGBTQ+

A USA Today article last year reported 32 regularly appearg bisexual or homosexual characters primetime work scripted seri for the 2014-15 televisn season, wh another 64 appearg ble TV shows (Bill Keveney, “Y, You Really Are Seeg More LGBT Characters on TV, ” Oct. This means publicizg support for gays by more morate church, raisg theologil objectns of our own about nservative terpretatns of biblil teachgs, and exposg hatred and nsistency. This they have certaly acplished—enlistg liberal scholars to expla away biblil teachgs about homosexual practic, reterpretg their pla meang.

They ntued: “Send, we n unrme the moral thory of homophobic church by portrayg them as antiquated backwaters, badly out of step wh the tim and wh the latt fdgs of psychology.

THE ‘GAY AGENDA,’ EXPLAED

Those who hold to biblil teachgs about homosexualy and marriage are nmned as bigots, homophob and backward thkers who are a threat to progrs. Some who have stood up have been fed, orred to attend pro-homosexual “sensivy trag, ” lost jobs or had their bs sued out of existence by ernment agents and agenci that support the homosexual agenda.

“If gays are prented, stead, as a strong and priful tribe promotg a rigidly nonnformist and viant liftyle, they are more likely to be seen as a public menace that jtifi ristance and opprsn. This means that jnty mtached mclemen would keep very low profile gay mercials and other public prentatns, while sympathetic figur of nice young people, old people, and attractive women would be featured. They then add this utn for those who would want to ph the gay agenda too far: “It almost go whout sayg that groups on the fartht marg of acceptabily such as NAMBLA [the North Amerin Man-Boy Love Associatn, which as s name suggts promot adult-child homosexual sex] mt play no part at all such a mpaign: spected child-molters will never look like victims...

The gay muny should no longer be nsired victims the Uned Stat—and realy those the gay movement have bee aggrsive challengers of tradnal valu and biblil beliefs on many onts. “A media mpaign that sts gays as society’s victims and enurag straights to be their protectors mt make easier for those to rpond to assert and expla their new protectivens.

THE GAY AGENDA

But an addnal theme of the mpaign should be more aggrsive and upbeat: to offset the creasgly bad prs that the tim have brought to homosexual men and women, the mpaign should pat gays as superr pillars of society. Send, we tend to make the anti-gays look so nasty that average Amerins will want to dissociate themselv om such typ” (emphasis add throughout). To this end, they then suggted that those who oppose the homosexual agenda be lked wh imag such as the Ku Klux Klan, “bigoted southern misters droolg wh hysteril hatred, ” thugs and nvicts, and Nazi ncentratn mps.

This strategy—aid and abetted by sympathetic news media and ernment agenci—has led to enterg a stage of aggrsive attacks by some the gay muny agast those who scerely believe that homosexual behavr vlat the laws, stctns and prcipl of God.

WHAT'S BEHD THE GAY AGENDA?

Yet at the same time, they ma a statement showg that gays really aren’t the opprsed, victimized group Kirk and Madsen advote they be portrayed as: “Bee those gays not supportg fai ually have more discretnary e than average, they uld afford to ntribute much more.

Supreme Court’s lg legalizg same-sex marriage, ’s bee they regnize this simple fact: Homosexual upl, who typilly don’t have children, have substantially more discretnary e than fai who do.

The impact of this is also beg felt the polil arena, where wealthy gays help bankroll mpaigns for sympathetic ndidat who will advance their terts and fund ads attackg those who stand for tradnal and biblil valu. Kirk and Madsen go on to praise the fact that homosexuals have been able to filtrate Amerin news media to advance the e of issu important to them. “Bee most straightforward appeals are impossible, the Natnal Gay Task Force has had to cultivate quiet backroom liaisons wh broadst pani and newsrooms orr to make sure that issu important to the gay muny receive some verage.
