Parent One, Parent Two to replace references to mother, father on passport forms

Goodbye, Mom and Dad. Hello, Parent One and Parent Two.

The State Department has decided to make U.S. passport application forms "gender neutral" by removing references to mother and father, officials said, in favor of language that describes one's parentage somewhat less tenderly.

The change is "in recognition of different types of families," according to a statement issued just before Christmas that drew widespread attention Friday after a Fox News report.

The announcement of the change was buried at the end of a Dec. 22 news release, titled "Consular Report of Birth Abroad Certificate Improvements," that highlighted unrelated security changes.

The new policy is a win for gay rights groups, a vocal and financially generous Democratic voting bloc that has pushed for the change since Barack Obama began his presidential transition in late 2008. The decision follows last month's vote to end the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy, which gay leaders consider one of their biggest victories in years.

Fred Sainz, vice president of the Human Rights Campaign, a gay rights advocacy group, called the news "a positive step forward for all American families. It was time that the federal government acknowledged the reality that hundreds of thousands of kids in this country are being raised by same-sex parents."

Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, blasted it as reflecting the "topsy-turvy world of left-wing political correctness."

When you control the language you will soon control the thinking. That explains the motive behind PC speech codes.

Exactly. Cultural Marxism is all about controlling the words so they control the ideas.

The ideology define the culture. We are being forced into the Marxist paradigm—out of the Christian Western Civ one which is based on Natural Law Theory. That is where common sense as understood by the Founders originated and is where our moral law comes from.

Oliver Wendel Holmes and many in our 20th century are out to destroy the Christian paradigm and take us back into a Greek homosexual pagan model where law has no connection with moral law. Total transformation of America into something that the Founders and all decent moral people would hate. Civil society with only positive law. No morality can be assigned to anything—made up law according to whatever. No Natural Law basis....it is outrageous what lawyers and judges are doing—a total disregard for the meaning of the Constitution.

They got to get rid of the words mother and father so that the words can be eliminated from the minds of the children. They are conditioning children into a new communist model of family—father and mother become meaningless. It is why they promote homosexuality....to make marriage meaningless. They want a collective and family loyalty gets in the way of equal affection for all. Takes loyalty away from the state.

Got to control the language to control the minds.....cultural Marxism at work—redefine everything...destroy traditions so you destroy all history and culture....then you can create your utopia....which I think they want to have what the socialist SA Nazi’s wanted....a homosexual Greek orgy paradigm where pederasty was rampant. What Hitler had with the Hitler Youth where he assigned all his homosexual officers to control and have an endless supply of the young boys.

I don't understand your references to communism. As one with Soviet background I know that male homosexualism was crimimalised in the USSR, as well as the practice was despised by the society.

Is it anything special for the US marxism?

Read Herbert Marcuse...he was from the Frankfurt School and in with Gramsci. They extended Marxist economic ideas into the culture. They combined Marxism with Freud which created a Freudian/cultural Marxism. Basically they use all the ideas of Freud but strip away all repression of any sexual instinct (they say all repression creates pathology) and they instill the egalitarianism of Marx—everyone is exactly the same. That makes people interchangeable and any relationship as mother and father etc. creates affections away from the devotion to the whole—the state. That is why Karl Marx loathed the family and Lenin made divorce easy and children were put into day cares early to destroy the attachment and loyalty.

In Marx, relatedness was evil because the affections then didn’t extend to the whole....only to particular people, a mother, father ,child which created inequities and also gave refuge where the state wanted to be the God and nanny. Families are formed because they align with Natural Law Theory—which has always connoted a Higher Power.

Russians are realizing the damage they did to the family structure. Aren’t they trying to pay their women to have babies now. I hear they are like all the pro=homosexual European nations and not reproducing.

Nihilism comes from no God. If you have no moral absolutes then “wrong” is what ever your leaders say it is. The Germans were aggressively Homosexual. The SA troops were virtually founded in a gay bar....Hitler was a sexual pervert although they can’t prove he was a homosexual, they do know when he was in his twenties he lived with a man in the homosexual sections of Germany. He also made laws condemning Homosexuality...but all for people support.....for all his chauffeurs remained homosexual as did a lot of his close friends and officers. The SA used to comb the high schools for boys for Roehm and Hitler put known pederasts in charge of the Hitler Youth.

Dostoevsky is one of my favorite authors, BTW. Of course, his writing got him sent to Siberia, I think.

When you base a culture on Godlessness, there is no hope and future. Life is always a struggle....you will never have a “utopia” on earth unless you make slaves of the masses and even then you will fail, because you will get sick and die.

You can never have egalitarianism....because all people are different. Marx’s vision, like Bloom said....is one of an ant colony, only all of the ants had lobotomies.
