6 OF THE BT SEX POSNS FOR GAY MEN WHO LIKE TO TOP

When I was fourteen, after lookg up the word “homosexual” the dictnary, I fally had a word to scribe what I felt. Stuart Matis, the gay grandson of Henry Matis, whom my grandfather helped nvert to the LDS Church, nfid his parents and Church lears, and his life end tragilly, suici.

ON BEG A GAY MORMON MISSNARY

One Sunday I was attendg my parents’ ward, when a brother stood up and ma some extremely homophobic ments. It reassured me, and told me that this brother didn’t know what he was talkg about when he spoke about gay people. It seemed to me that the majory of Mormons had ser misnceptns about homosexualy, and had very negative and false stereotyp about what meant to be gay.

Maybe the growth of the Church would be very bad for gay people – much the way that the growth of Evangelil Christiany Uganda has been disastro for gays that part of the world.

And if I knew of God’s great love for me and if I knew of all the ways which he had blsed me and my hband, then surely I mt know that his plan for the Church, there would always, always be a place for me and my hband, and that the spread of his Church, far om beg bad for gays, would make a world that is far, far better for gays and for all God’s children, whatever their sexual orientatn, race, genr or other aspects of who we are. A person n be homophobic, but if they learn how to love, once the sl of homophobia are removed om their ey, they will love far better than someone who was not homophobic, but never learned the value of sacrifice.

This is why we need the Church to grow, and why we need to be a part of the Church, and why we need to learn to live the Gospel see, this same brother who tght me this betiful lson about why I need to not worry about my stat the Church, and worry more about the kd of person I am beg also tght me this lson about homophobia.

GAY THE LATO COMMUNY: A FILM REVIEW OF “LA MISSN”

And this same brother who had gotten up one day Sunday School a few years ago and gone on a homophobic rant that almost ed me to get up and walk out of the Church, that same brother stood up Prithood meetg and to my and my father’s astonishment nfsed that many the Church have misunrstood and have needlsly rejected our lbian and gay brothers and sisters (he ed the words “lbian and gay”!

I thk this is generally a good thg, though seems to add certa challeng relatn to Church activy and service, pecially relatn to servg a full-time a gay or lbian youth were to ask my advice about whether to serve a missn for the Church or not, here is what I would say. But what I do know is that the membership of the Church do not have to be purified of every last vtige of homophobia orr to provi a marvelo ntext for growth and for the Lord to bls through his rtored prithood. In the November 1987 edn of Gui, a magaze for homosexuals, the two men thored an article tled “The Overhlg of Straight 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. Their goal was to make homosexualy acceptable and to fe negative opns of any who disagree.

COMPANNS: LSONS OM GAY MORMON MISSNARI

The article began by statg: “The first orr of bs is sensizatn of the Amerin public ncerng gays and gay rights. One person scribed “The Overhlg of Straight Ameri” as the “bible” of the homosexual agenda. We do not need and nnot expect a full ‘appreciatn’ or ‘unrstandg’ of homosexualy om the average Amerin.

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.

B by b over the past ten years, gay characters and gay them have been troduced to TV programs and films... Have you noticed the number of homosexual characters appearg TV programs and how they are overwhelmgly picted posively?

Kirk and Madsen also scribed a strategy by which the homosexual movement uld unter and largely nullify opposn om Ameri’s church. They wrote: “When nservative church nmn gays, there are only two thgs we n do to nfound the homophobia of te believers. 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. 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.

“In any mpaign to w over the public, gays mt be st as victims need of protectn, ” Kirk and Madsen wrote. “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. For that reason, we mt forego the temptatn to stt our ‘gay pri’ publicly when nflicts wh the Gay Victim image, ” they wrote.

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...
