The SPLC and the Homosexual Hate Movement
La Salette Journey ^ | January 30, 2015 | Paul Melanson

Posted on 01/30/2015 4:02:45 PM PST by cleghornboy

Just returned from a very productive evangelization project in the Monadnock area. But I'm back.

In the news, Patrick Vaughn, Legal Counsel for the American Family Association, correctly observes that, "The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) calls the American Family Association (AFA) a 'hate group' because AFA promotes traditional Biblical views on homosexuality and marriage. SPLC does not have a standard for who they label as a 'hate group.' They apply the label to whomever they want to dehumanize and attack." See here.

The Southern Poverty Law Center has even included Mass Resistance in its list of hate groups because of the organization's opposition to homosexuality, an opposition which is rooted in both Divine Revelation and Natural Law. This is ridiculous on so many different levels. What is particularly ironic, however, is that Mass Resistance doesn't even meet the SPLC's definition of a hate group: "All hate groups have beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristics." (Source: http://www.splcenter.org/intel/map/hate.jsp).

I am amazed that something private that has always been illegal to conduct in public, sex, must be publicly supported now.

but only for gays

for anyone else, the kinda conduct & public displays of sex and perversion would get you arrested and terminated from your job.

My thoughts over the last year or two has been: What made all these people start jumping on the homosexual bandwagon all a sudden?

Agenda 21?

It is pandering to a teeny tiny minority for no other reason than tolerance and acceptance at the expense of everyone else. Taken to its logical consequence, everyone should be gay and there goes the human race in one generation. One question that is never asked of homosexuality: is it moral? If yes than why and on what basis? The dinosaurs will not touch that one.

SPLC are the equivalent of a leftist Al Qaeda. Time to lock their financiers in a dank dungeon

“They apply the label to whomever they want to dehumanize and attack.”

And what do they call what they are doing?

The Southern Poverty Law Center is what it pretends to diagnose.
