I am what the Left and homosexual activists would call a homophobe. A phobia is usually defined as an unusual and/or irrational fear of something. The effect of this fear would cause a person to shrink in near uncontrollable terror of the person, place, imagined or thing that is the perceived object causing fear.
Leftists and homosexual activists would not describe a homophobe as a person that lives in abject fear of occupying the same space and time of homosexuals. Rather Leftists and homosexual activists would consider a homophobe as quite the opposite of irrational and unusual timidity. Leftist and homosexual activists have propagandized that one with the appellation of homophobe is prone to hatred, violent hatred, racism, bigotry and the intelligence of a medieval peasant (implying a low class uneducated person).
Thus Leftist and homosexual activism has warped the concept of fear-stricken aversion into extremist bigots ready to execute violence on the homosexual aberrant social subset.
Now let’s be honest. There are people who have developed an irrational hate of homosexuals who are prepared to utilize violent actions to inflict suffering upon a homosexual individual to assuage a moment or the lifestyle of irrational hatred. The thing is homosexual rights activists has opened a net to impugn all people who rightly discern that homosexuality is a heinous sin to include violent lunatics with civil moral individuals.
If someone like me accepts the appellation of being a homophobe, I would neither accept the association of abject fear of homosexuals nor the association of violent hatred wishing harm upon homosexuals. If I was to accept the appellation of homophobe it would be a description of one who considers homosexuality a behavior and not an identity; ergo a homosexual is one who lives a lifestyle of perverted and immoral same-sex sin against the eternal nature of the Creator.
Does that make me a racist, bigot and hater? The answer is no. At worst it makes me an irritant to Leftist homosexual apologists and to homosexual activists. I would be an irritant because if anyone would listen to my stand for Christian morality it would be a coffin nail in the homosexual agenda. Indeed, Christian Morality should be exhorted from the valley to the mountain top to toss the homosexual agenda into the coffin of irrelevance and sealed to the last nail.
Now after laying the groundwork of how homophobia should be perceived by Conservatives and Christians let’s enquire into a bit of controversy among family values activists.
Not long ago the Focus on the Family gave the appearance of taking a step back on the immoral implications of a homosexual lifestyle by announcing the Christian Right advocacy organization would not oppose a homosexual appointee to the Supreme Court (SA: Right Wing Watch).
According to AFTAH, Focus on the Family has offered a clarification of the not opposing a homosexual SCOTUS appointee statement:
“It has been reported that we would not oppose any U.S. Supreme Court nominee over their ’sexual orientation.’ Our Judicial Analyst [Bruce Hausknecht] made a statement to this effect in an interview with The Plum Line. To be honest, this is one of those conversations we’d like to ‘do over.’ We can assure you that we recognize that homosexual behavior is a sin and does not reflect God’s created intent and desire for humanity. Further, we at Focus do affirm that character and moral rectitude should be key considerations in appointing members of the judiciary, especially in the case of the highest court in the land. Sexual behavior–be it heterosexual or homosexual–certainly lies at the heart of personal morality.”
Here are the Peter LaBarbera thoughts on the wise Focus on the Family wise about face.
