Homosexual Immorality: What's the Debate?

Contact: Jennifer Fedor, Concerned Women for America, 202-488-7000 ext. 126

 

WASHINGTON, July 20 /Christian Newswire/ -- On August 9, MTV's homosexual cable network, Logo, is hosting the first-ever presidential debate intended to promote the homosexual and transgender (gender identity disorder) lifestyles.  All major presidential candidates have been invited to participate.  To date, all Republican presidential candidates have declined, while all major Democratic candidates have accepted.  Those candidates who have accepted are Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-New York), Sen. Barack Obama (D-Illinois), former Sen. John Edwards (D-North Carolina), Sen. Christopher Dodd (D-Connecticut), former Sen. Mike Gravel (D-Alaska), and Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio).

Both Joe Solmonese, president of the homosexual "Human Rights Campaign" and lesbian singer/activist Melissa Etheridge have been selected as panelists.  

Matt Barber, CWA's Policy Director for Cultural Issues, said, "This debate is clearly designed to advance the radical homosexual agenda and to promote social and governmental acceptance and celebration of the high-risk and destructive homosexual lifestyle. 

"It's disgraceful that our nation's moral standards have now dipped so low that it's considered 'tolerant' to hold a debate organized entirely around the promotion of sexual immorality.  What's next?  Are presidential candidates going to be asked to participate in a debate on how to garner widespread acceptance of adultery or incest?  Are members of the growing polygamy lobby and the pedophile group NAMBLA going to tap candidates for a televised debate to promote their chosen lifestyles? 

"Thousands of years of history, every major world religion, the unambiguous science of human biology and good old fashioned common sense have established that homosexual behaviors are both immoral and destructive to the lives, health and spiritual well being of those who choose to participate in those behaviors.  For instance, the CDC has recently determined that 71 percent of all males living with deadly HIV/AIDS were infected with the disease through homosexual behaviors," said Barber, "Furthermore, the CDC has determined that homosexuals -- especially males -- are by far at greatest risk for nearly all forms of sexually transmitted disease as well as other lifestyle related injuries. 

"Will any of the presidential candidates bring up any of these facts during the debate?  Organizers are expecting them to fall all over themselves trying to prove to the world who's most sympathetic to the left's twisted version of 'tolerance' and 'diversity.'  But there's nothing to debate here.  These candidates should play it straight, so to speak, and call it like it is.  Immorality is immorality," concluded Barber.
