"Traditional Values" versus gay agenda-- battleground is the Boy Scouts
Edited on Fri Mar-18-05 02:08 AM by TexasLawyer
From the "Traditional Values Coalition" website. The Coalition defines what traditional values are, then shows how the ACLU is trying to subvert these values with the gay agenda. Bogus siege mentality producing completely frivolous legislation.

http://www.traditionalvalues.org/defined.php

TRADITIONAL VALUES DEFINED
What Are Traditional Values?
While other pro-family groups may have their own specific definitions of what "traditional values" means, here's what we consider to be traditional values:


A moral code and behavior based upon the Old and New Testaments. We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that the Lord has given us a rule book to live by: The Bible. We are committed to living, as far as it is possible, by the moral precepts taught by Jesus Christ and by the whole counsel of God as revealed in the Bible.

As an outgrowth of our commitment to the Bible, we believe the following:

<snip>

Homosexuality, Bi-Sexuality, Transgenderism, And Other Deviant Sexual Behaviors: The Bible clearly condemns all sexual behaviors outside of marriage between one man and one woman. Homosexual behavior is explicitly condemned in both the Old and New Testaments as an abomination and a violation of God’s standards for sexuality. We oppose the normalization of sodomy as well as cross-dressing and other deviant sexual behaviors in our culture.

<snip>

Love And Hate: The Bible teaches us that we are to love our enemies and do good to those who persecute us. We believe it is a loving response to oppose behaviors that destroy individuals and families. It is not loving to allow someone to kill themselves or other individuals. It is not “hate” to fight against such cultural forces as pornography, drugs, abortion, and sodomy.

Boy Scout Protection Legislation Introduced By Senator Frist

March 17, 2005 –
On March 15, Senator Bill Frist (R-TN) and several colleagues introduced the “Support Our Scouts Act Of 2005”. According to Frist: “The “Support Our Scouts Act of 2005” guarantees the Boy Scouts’ right to equal access in a number of ways. The legislation removes any doubt that Federal agencies may welcome Scouts to hold meetings and go camping on federal property. It ensures the Defense Department can continue providing support consistent with U.S. law.

The legislation also ensures state or local government entities do not deny Boy Scouts equal access to public facilities, programs, or forums. Finally, the act clarifies that federal agencies cannot provide less support to the Scouts than the agency has in the past.”

The homosexual-run ACLU has targeted the Boy Scouts for its policies on atheists and prohibiting homosexuals from membership or leadership positions. ACLU’s national leader is homosexual activist Anthony D. Romero, who formerly served at the Ford Foundation and dispensed $90 million in grants to leftist and homosexual causes.

2. "Traditional Values" = Bigotry, Patriarchy
Unlike the rest of the civilized world, these people find something admirable about those things.

4. A collection of hateful ass-clowns.
They'll "love" a person to death while robbing them. :eyes:
The stupid contradictory fucks want less government, but they want the government to put to death those they don't like!

I wonder if these morons ever read what they write.

6. I'm confused by this post. It seems that Frist/Repugs are the
"boy-hungry" ones, inviting unlimited young Scouts access to Federal property. Point IS, why are they so concerned about obedient little uniformed boys?
