MAKG GAY OKAY: ROBERT REILLY EXPLAS HOW AND WHY

Reilly, entled Makg Gay Okay: How Ratnalizg Homosexual Behavr Is Changg Everythg.

The foc is on the extraordary rapidy of the change om social rejectn to social affirmatn of homosexualy. The thor very effectively tails both the ratnale and the tactics ed to succsfully advance “gay rights”.

For example, as late as 1986, the US Supreme Court stated unequivolly that the US Constutn do not nfer “a fundamental right to engage homosexual sodomy”. In dog so, the Court ced the universal history of the proscriptn of homosexual nduct om ancient Roman Law through the entire Juo-Christian tradn, notg that “to hold that the act of homosexual sodomy is somehow protected as a fundamental right would be to st asi lennia of moral teachg. In other words, given the long-prevailg cultural beliefs and attus, one might argue that the most remarkable feature of the mpaign for gay rights is not that s succs me so quickly, but that took so long.

ROBERT REILLY ON HIS NEW BOOK, MAKG GAY OKAY

Wh the recent lnch of Evangelils for Marriage Equaly, Robert Reilly’s latt work, Makg Gay Okay: How Ratnalizg Homosexual Behavr Is Changg Everythg, uld not be more relevant to Christians who sire to thk refully about the so-lled gay marriage bate. Although Reilly wouldn’t lote himself wh the evangelil tradn—he is a Catholic scholar and apologist—he has much to offer evangelils who sense a ep ntradictn between the orr of creatn and homosexual acts, or who are still uncid over the qutn of same-sex “marriage. The acceptance of homosexual “marriage, ” then, is not necsarily the tellectual and moral progrsn of an enlightened society; has the potential to turn agast realy and the nature of our existence as humans.

Bee the body is beg ed a way ntrary to s sign, anal terurse unsurprisgly leads to ser health problems for practicg homosexual men. It is well documented that higher rat of rectal ncer, rectal prolapse, perforatn, chlamydia, cryptosporidsis, giardiasis, viral hepatis B, syphilis, HIV, and AIDS afflict men who participate homosexual “terurse. Reilly is right: Ratnalizg homosexual behavr is changg everythg.
