CHICAGO, Aug. 10 /Christian Newswire/ -- Americans For Truth About Homosexuality President Peter LaBarbera today urged conservative pundit Ann Coulter to reconsider her appearance at "Homocon," a September event for the homosexual Republican group GOProud.

LaBarbera said:

As a fan of Ann Coulter, it pains me to see her cave in to political correctness and lend credibility to the phony homosexual "conservatives" over at GOProud. Worse, Coulter is sending a dangerous message to young Americans that homosexuality is OK. (It's actually a sin.) Fully half of GOProud's top 10 federal priorities center on using the Government to advance homosexuality, including:

#4 - "Repealing 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell'" -- Homosexualizing the military is reckless, especially in wartime. GOProud claims to defend "individual rights," but what about the privacy rights of normal soldiers who don't want to bunk and shower with men who lust after other men? Moreover, if DADT is repealed, the military will become a massive government bureaucracy for pro-homosexual "diversity" -- subjecting millions of tradition-minded servicemen to Orwellian, same-sex propaganda to enforce its new lavender crusade. (Chaplains: beware.)

# 7 - "Opposing any anti-gay federal marriage amendment." Coulter must know that America might be just one Supreme Court justice away from legalizing oxymoronic homosexual "marriage" -- which would undermine religious freedom in every state in the nation. A Federal Marriage Amendment could be the only way to stop this Roe v. Wade-like disaster. And since when did state-enforced homosexual "marriage" -- with its corrosive effect on liberty and linkage to Homosexuality Promotion in schools -- become "conservative"?

GOProud is non-committal on ENDA (Employment Non-Discrimination Act), which would federalize workers' "rights" based on homosexuality and gender confusion. A truly conservative organization would fight this federal power grab -- and GLBT lawyers' dream legislation -- tooth and nail. Ann, are you aware that these days it's Christians like Julea Ward and Matt Barber who defend biblical truth -- not "gays" -- who are victims of corporate discrimination?

One must ask Coulter, who professes Christianity:

·        Would you speak at an event for "Republicans For Responsible Porn Use," or "Republicans for Higher Taxes," or Republicans for Choice [Abortion] -- if such groups took legitimately conservative positions on other issues like gun rights?

·        Does God condemn only Democratic "men who lie with a male as one who lies with a woman" -- while giving Republican sodomists a pass?

Homosexual practice may be hip in New York City, but objectively it is always wrong and unnatural, and often unhealthy. Thankfully it's also changeable, as proved by thousands of ex-gay men and ex-lesbians. Ann: why don't you speak instead at a conference for former homosexuals? It's not PC, but it would be far more consistent with your conservative principles than celebrating GOProud -- which works directly against the Republican Party's pro-family and pro-marriage platform.

Please reconsider and nix your GOProud talk -- in the name of true conservatism.­
