The Homosexual Problem
In case you missed it, the April 23rd edition of 'Alan Keyes is Making Sense' which aired last Tuesday on MSNBC featured a heated debate among host Alan Keyes, Bill Donohue of the Catholic League, and two guests representing both 'Dignity USA', and 'Catholics Speak Out'-advocacy groups who openly promote the legitimization of homosexual activity within the Catholic Church (the recently accused Fr. Shanley served as Chaplain to one of the organizations)
Quoting from the statement delivered by the Pope which read, "The abuse of the young is a grave symptom of a crisis affecting not only the church, but society as a whole. It is a deep-seated crisis of sexual morality..." Keyes established the fact that many of the abuse cases represent clear violations of Church teaching on sexual morality and homosexual activity. Moreover, Keyes asked whether attempts by groups such as 'Dignity USA' and 'Catholics Speak Out' to legitimize homosexual activity within the Church are indeed part of the problem.
As expected, homosexual advocacy groups such as GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) were outraged! Just last week they issued an ALERT to their loyal members urging them to "express your displeasure with the unfair behavior and defamatory anti-gay attacks of Alan Keyes," providing contact information for the producers of the show.
This despite the fact that report after report issued over the last several weeks have made it abundantly clear--the overwhelming majority of accused priests were homosexual priests, and many of their victims were teenage boys. Keyes was only stating what has become plainly obvious to many. The solution to the victimization of teenage boys by homosexual priests is NOT to promote more homosexual activity, but to STOP it!
In recent weeks it has also been reported that one of the accused priests participated in meetings of NAMBLA (North American Man-Boy Love Association), a group that openly promotes sexual relations between adult males and young boys. The accusations against Paul Shanley confirm Keyes' judgment that homosexual advocacy groups fuel sexual abuse.
And it is precisely this conviction which has led the Thomas More Law Center to represent parents of a child sexually abused and murdered by a NAMBLA member.
The goal of our lawsuit is to bring down NAMBLA by exposing it for what it is-an organized effort to hide criminal activity between predatory men and adolescent males.
And guess who is opposing us? The ACLU! They believe that NAMBLA has a constitutional right to advocate, encourage, and assist men in having sex with underage boys, and they refuse to acknowledge NAMBLA's role in facilitating predatory activity!
Father Richard Welch, CSSR, JCD, President of Human Life International, the world's largest pro-life, pro-family apostolate noted, "The lawsuit against NAMBLA sees beyond the rhetoric and rationalizations of a society that is too cowardly to confront its own demons. Finally, we are asserting legally what we have always known in our hearts-that advocacy groups like NAMBLA serve to reaffirm and encourage deviancy, violence, and the exploitation of children."
Groups like NAMBLA and those that encourage homosexual activity MUST be stopped! Their influence on children, particularly in public schools, and in the Catholic Church, must end. Keyes' show last Tuesday is proof that these groups do not see themselves as part of the problem, but instead are seeking to take advantage of the current crisis in the Church to promote their own perverse agenda.
It is time to take action.

In the South Carolina primary, we DID have a choice to make - between Bush, Keyes, and McWhine. Although I despise McCain, and knew full well that a vote for Keyes may cause McCain to eventually win the nomination, I cast it for Alan.
I have never felt so good leaving a voting booth, knowing that I had voted my conccience. Don't get me wrong, I love Pres. Bush (although he's leaving me bewildered lately), but Keyes' ideas were simply too strong for me to ignore.
In this case though - Hey GLAAD - Stay in the hell away from my church.
Does the official teaching of the Church condone any type of sex other than contraception-free intercourse between a married man and woman?
They will never answer this question - or if they do they will say it does not matter what the Church teaches (or for that matter what the Bible says).
This allows everyone present for the conversation to understand that the gaystapo freely ignore the Church and have no respect for her teaching. Why do they even bother pretending to be Catholic at that point?
Congratulations!
This is number 5.
