A Holocaust Memorial Day Trust spokeswoman said: "Holocaust Memorial Day is about remembering all victims: be they Jewish, gypsy, gay or lesbian.

Good grief.

"He said prominence had been given to the "supreme moral values of liberty and equality"

Hummmmmm. Why does that sound familer?.....Oh, yeah they were two of the top three purported values of the French revolution. How did that turn out again?

"The homosexual lobby has been extremely effective in aligning itself with minority groups.

That is most certainly not the case with American Blacks. They quite rightly resent the gays trying to make their bitching and moaning into the new civil rights movement.

So now we have to honor Ernst Rolm as a Holocaust victim?

Well, he’s absolutely on target. I guess that’s what bothers them.

"Such a continued attack on gay people is distinctly unChristian..."

How did we get to the point where radical homosexual activists are lecturing Catholic Bishops on what is "Christian"?

Sorry, Scottish gay dudes, but it’s not the function of the Church to be “in step” with normal public opinion. Quite the opposite.

"It's a very small group of people, but very active and organised – and extremely indulgent. The opposition know exactly what they're doing. We don't."

Indulgent, indeed. The Bishop sees what's happening, and of course the homosexual lobby is going to go at him, hammer and tong. I hope his fellow Bishops don't run and hide from him.

I can certainly agree with the the most Catholic Bishop on this. Kudos! (From a former Episcopalian - Now a happy Evangelical)

There were Catholic victims too. The second largest group after the Jewish people were Catholics!

Romans 1:25-27 tells us that same-sex sexual relationships are a consequence of idolatry. In other words, such relationships are a consequence of disobeying the 1ST COMMANDMENT, a major aspect of the GREATEST COMMANDMENT, to love the jealous God with all your being.

Homosexuals need to keep in mind, however, that the good news of the gospel is not about how God despises same-sex sexual relationships. In fact, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 indicates that certain members of that church had been slaves to such relationships but had been cleansed in Jesus' name. So these former homosexual had evidently repented and accepted God's grace to straighten their lives out.

John 3:16
Revelation 3:20

He is right. The same strategies are being employed worldwide.

I was at a highly ranked high school recently. Very few clubs were openly advertised, and I did not see any club advertised more than once. Yet, there were several ads pushing the GSA on each wall of the building.

The ads varied, with statements about how societies that “exclude” some people destroy themselves, ads around the water fountain talking about how wonderful the group was, promos for their weekly movie night, and quotes from famous people.

If I was a kid attending the school, it would be very clear to me that I would be labeled a close-minded bigot if I did not succumb to the pressure and join their group.

Tuesday’s Inside Track section of the Boston Herald reported that “Fun Couple” Tom Lang and Alexander Westerhoff hosted a 75th birthday party for Laurie Cabot, the “Official Witch” of Salem MA. The party was attended by Wiccans of all ages. Lang and Westerhoff founded Knowthyneighbor.org a web-site dedicated to the harassment of people who signed the petition to get a Marriage Amendment on the ballot. So they’re not just Gay, their Satanic as well. Too bad they didn’t make this known to all the “Christians” who felt bad for them and wouldn’t sign.

Sorry I cant see whats wrong with that.

After all, half of all Holocaust victims were non-Jewish and the Nazis famously targeted the German/Austrian homosexual community (Hitler had a particular hatred of the louche, openly sexual Weimar culture of the 20’s).

No.

But why shouldnt we remember all victims of 1933-1945?...

Jews,gypsies, Poles, anti-Nazis, gays, the mentally ill and handicapped, amongst many others.

There is something like almost two dozen different groups of people that the Nazis killed in the death camps...

Actually, that’s not entirely true, although gay activists have made it one of their talking points. Like Muslims and others in love with power and control, the Nazis often indulged in homosexuality and condoned it, as long as it was the “butch” homosexual. There was Homosexuality in the top ranks of the Nazi Party, among the Brown Shirts, and in the early Hitler Youth movement. It was OK as long as you were the “manly” homosexual.

Similarly, Muslims will say that homosexuality is outlawed, as I’manutjob recently did in Iran, and they will occasionally execute them—yet if you are a homosexual who wants to find a boy prostitute, there’s no place like a Muslim country. North Africa was a favorite hangout for famous British and American fags.
