Christian man snubbed by pro-homosexual Big Brothers!

You signed the petition Tell Big Brothers, Sisters no on homosexuals. You were joined by 22285 other people who also signed this petition.

The fight to shape up Big Brothers Big Sisters of America may soon need to change. In addition to keeping homosexuals and pedophiles out as mentors of young boys, a wider objective should be keeping Christians in that organization. Here's why:

A man in Whatcom County, WA, reportedly was turned down as a mentor in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program due to his Christian standards. That's right: Dan Pritchett, who works for a company that makes Bible software, says he was turned down because of his moral principles.

Pritchett said he wants to mentor a needy child as a matter of Christian responsibility. During his interview, Pritchett revealed he abstains from premarital sex and holds to biblical sexual morality. This, he was told, makes him unacceptable for the Big Brothers program -- a clear case of anti-Christian discrimination.

"They gave me the impression that they were looking for mentors with low morals," Pritchett said. "If my morals are too high, the alternative would be lower morals."

Big Brothers Big Sisters of America has been in the news first over its decision not to discriminate against homosexuals as mentors, and then for not telling parents of the sexual orientation of their son's mentor. It's easy to see that matters have only gotten worse despite our petition effort at:
http://www.conservativepetitions.com/petitions.php?id=87

It's going to take a greater effort to alert the American public to this perversion of a once-great service organization that used to brighten -- not threaten -- our nation's youth. More than ever before, the light of truth must shine on its twisted agenda.

Regardless about the blessings of diversity, exposing vulnerable and impressionable young boys to homosexuality, not to mention the risks of potential abuse, is simply wrong. Most Americans would oppose any organization that allows homosexuals direct access to young boys in the intimate context of camping and other activities -- if they only knew what's happening. Tell them the truth awaits at:
http://www.conservativepetitions.com/petitions.php?id=87

You can help by directing everyone you know to sign this petition that urges Big Brothers Big Sisters of America to change its policy enforcing homosexuals as mentors. Only a loud public outcry will enable this organization to stand against those who insist on perverting its principles and morals.

Act now before Christians no longer will be welcome as mentors and Big Brothers becomes a homosexual factory. Tell friends and family here is where to make their voices heard for our youth's sake:

For your convenience, a cut-n-paste message is provided below. It's even more convenient to return to the petition and fill in all blanks with email addresses. Either way, the key to rescuing this otherwise good organization is making the American public increasingly aware of its perverted progress. Act now!

P.S. If Big Brothers Big Sisters of America will focus on what's best for single-parent children, this policy will be reversed. With so many young lives at risk, won't you please take a moment right now to help others stand up for God and America and be counted at Conservative- Petitions.com? The address again is:
http://www.conservativepetitions.com/petitions.php?id=87

PLEASE CUT-AND-PASTE THIS EMAIL MESSAGE:

------------------

Dear Conservative Friend:

Big Brothers Big Sisters of America is enforcing a policy making its local chapters accept homosexuals as mentors for impressionable children. Please go to ConservativePetitions.com and read what is at stake. Here's the address:
http://www.conservativepetitions.com/petitions.php?id=87

It is essential for conservative Americans to stand up for little ones now at great risk. Local chapters are being coerced into accepting homosexual mentors against their beliefs and better judgment. Sexual abuse statistics are about to soar in this otherwise outstanding organization.

Something must be done, and I'm inviting you to take action! Please sign the petition asking Big Brothers Big Sisters of America to reverse this reckless and irresponsible policy, then email everyone you know to warn them about this dangerous threat to our nation's youth. Again, the address is: http://www.conservativepetitions.com/petitions.php?id=87

I was on vacation when I got this email .. don't remember ever signing this petition, but I am glad I did (either old age or my wife signed for me .. no matter.)

I am just a bit shocked by reading about this organizatioin and what it is apparently getting away with. I did a search on Freepers for anything else about this and found an article John Huang posted in September but nothing else. Just thought that if you didn't already sign this petition, you may want to and let's all keep an eye on this organization and keep them away from our children!!

I don't buy it. This is only one side of the story, from a guy who probably has a political axe to grind.

Hmmm. Possibly deserves further research. But the other article posted seems to back the problems with this group:

Perhaps the best solution is to establish a Christian Values Big Brother/Sister program to compet with the queer component.

When I was teaching overseas, in Guam, there was a male teacher who spent a lot of after school time with one of his male student. When I asked him about this he would only reply "Oh, I'm doing the Big Brother thing".

When I returned to the States I found out he was arrested in northern Nevada for acts against a child.

You should send the article to everyone you know in Guam, to every media outlet there, and then to about 1,000 random people from the phone book. Create a situation the molester's protector's cannot ignore.

I wasn't aware of this. Tragic, but not surprising. One thing we can do is become Bigs in order to prevent children from being matched with homosexuals.

Already been done. Check out Kid's Hope USA, found at www.kidshopeusa.org. It's a good organization, and takes a different approach by starting with churches.
