THE GAY AGENDA BLUEPRT: A PLAN TO TRANSFORM AMERI
* the gay agenda book *
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 GAY AGENDA
The «gay agenda» is a rhetoril strategy ployed by the relig right and other social nservativ to magnify fear and hostily of queers. ... * the gay agenda book *
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 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...

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. 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.
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. 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.
“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. ACKNOWLEDGMENTSI would like to thank the Christian fundamentalists, extremists, and social nservativ, particularly those my home provce of Brish Columbia, whose attus, bigotry, and polil activism pelled me to break ee of the “ex-gay” dtry, and 20 years later, engage this book project. Acrdg to Rick Santom, a Uned Stat senator, failed Republin nomee for the 2012 printial electn, and spiratn for Dan Savage’s stologil rebrandg of “santom, ” a “homosexual bal” stole the printial electn by ployg “homosexual dirty tricks.

In 1994, the Gay and Lbian Alliance Agast Defamatn (GLAAD) stated that, “advocy for sex between adult men and boys and the removal of legal protectns for children…nstute a form of child abe and are repugnant to GLAAD. In addn to the mands that Christian activists fd so objectnable and outrageo and that they ntually and willfully misreprent as “special rights, ” we supposedly want everyone else to bee obssed wh homo sex, too, or at least to not be straight.
BOOKS THAT PH THE GAY AGENDA SHELF
The Gay Agenda, Spelled OutIn addn to the social, polil, and environmental chaos that ensu at our biddg (well, technilly, rults om God’s wrath, but we seem to get the cred for ), we also ploy our power to brg about the end of the world and we will stop at nothg to fulfill our agenda. From the vantage pot of relig zealotry, the gay agenda tak the shape of evil that is embodied by the guise of mon, normal people wh whom unspectg, God-fearg people and their children teract every day.
Be ever vigilant; the agenda is one of gay ce, wickedns, sexual pravy, child moltatn, and erosn of beloved godly stutns such as marriage and proper genr rol for boys, girls, men, and women as ← 4 | 5 → God tend them to be.

Genr and Whens are not the ncern of Christian activists bee their aim is to homogenize ’s text, and rpons to , certaly did not attempt to explite issu of genr and race, implyg that all queers are unanimo their support of the gay agenda. I me out 20 years ago when “gay” was still an acceptable sult, you uld unt the number of out celebri on one hand and if you saw an LGBTQ+ character on TV there was a 99% chance they were a psychopath or a predator. The big on - we've expand the Parental Rights Edutn law, which people outsi Florida probably know as Don't Say Gay, and unr that teachers n now lose their certifitn if they talk to kids pretty much any gra about genr inty or sexualy.

The Homosexual Agenda at s re is a self-centered set of beliefs and objectiv signed to promote and even mandate approval of homosexualy and homosexual iology, along wh the strategi ed to implement such.
