Gay Activists Now Want to Be in Control of the Movies You Watch

enders-game-poster2Gay Activists Now Want to Be in Control of the Movies You Watch

Get ready folks, this is only the beginning of our rights being taken away…

Geeks Out, a gay activist organization, wants all of America to boycott the new movie “Ender’s Game,” premiering November 1st, 2013. Their boycott project is titled, “Skip Ender’s Game.” Why? Because the author of the book that is being made into this movie is a supporter of traditional marriage and has spoken out strongly on the dangers of gay marriage. Geeks Out are organizing online efforts and local movie premiere protests to attempt to force “Ender’s Game” into ruin and unprofitability. See www.skipendersgame.com

Here’s the real story:

Gay activists want to control everything you do or think to conform to gay ideology. Since they are convinced that homosexuality is naturally in-born, they are succeeding in convincing the world that gay activism is a civil rights issue. However, since homosexuality is not in-born, (even the American Psychological Association has publicly acknowledged that there is no gay gene), this new effort to boycott a simple right to see whatever movie you like is nothing short of intolerance and mind control.

Yes, that’s right. Geeks Out and other gay activist organizations will not rest until they have successfully boycotted your minds and actions if you do not conform to the absolute acceptance of gay ideology. They will not rest until their beliefs are accepted by every person on the planet.

Remember, “Ender’s Game” does not even have any critical remarks in the script about homosexuality. Geeks Out simply wants every thought, every action, and person, and yes, any movie, to be barred from expressing anything that does not fall in line with gay ideology.

You can do something about this boycott…go see the movie! Pass this information on to all of your contacts. You can even organize your own protest against intolerance on the same block that Geeks Out will be protesting.

Let us hear from you if you are organizing any efforts to support this movie, or if you have any similar stories you’d like to tell us about.

Early Day Motion to Exclude SOCE Therapy Introduced in UK Parliament

In June 2013 a number of Members of Parliament (MPs) in the United Kingdom (UK) signed an Early Day Motion calling for therapy to help those with unwanted homosexual feelings to overcome them to be excluded from therapies offered from the National Health Service (NHS) (an Early Day Motion is a request for Parliament to discuss an issue if they finish the day’s business early). The basis of this motion is an article from the UK’s Independent newsletter where a gay rights activist, and founder of the Facebook group Stop Conversion Therapies (SCOT), deliberately entrapped a counselor claiming that he wanted to overcome unwanted homosexual feelings and then misquoted the therapist in his article, an article that won him a number of media awards despite him calling for violence against those who offer this type of therapy.

This motion is supported by one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for psychological therapists, the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) who have the rule that to offer a client sexual orientation change effort (SOCE) therapy is an act of gross misconduct even if the client requests that therapy. The UKCP also state that if a client expresses that they have a conflict between their beliefs and their homosexual feelings the therapist must tell the client that they can not help them and refer them to someone who will attempt to take them through therapy to accept their sexual orientation if they are not qualified to do so themselves, thereby violating the basic principle underpinning all psychological therapy of the client’s right to self-determination.

Yet, when looking into the issue of SOCE, the American Psychological Association (APA) defended the right of the client to undergo this type of therapy despite the APA refusing to accept any research supporting SOCE as helpful and successful. The UKCP and the British Association for Counseling and Psychotherapy (BACP), who also consider offering a client a SOCE as an act of gross misconduct, use the APA report to support the position but ignore the defense of client’s rights.

Over the last five years there has been a gradual eroding of the client’s right to self-determination when it comes to unwanted homosexual feelings across Europe, and particularly within the UK, with the British Medical Association (BMA) agreeing to a motion condemning therapy to overcome unwanted homosexual feelings. This motion was proposed by a junior (trainee) doctor who was a student at the same university where the founder of the Gay and Lesbian Special Interest Group at the Royal College of Psychiatrists in the UK is head of psychiatric medicine, and who was on the Labour Party’s think tank concerning the NHS.

Thankfully a large number of doctors and mental health professionals disagreed with the BMA motion and, if we can convince them to speak out, will oppose the Early Day Motion in Parliament. Knowing all this, I have written to the MP’s asking to meet with them to discuss the Early Day Motion and to present the facts in the hope that they will remove their support.

Journey of a Parent

We all want progress, but if you’re on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive.   C.S. Lewis

As parents of children with SSA, we have often driven down wrong roads. I’m sure that none of us bought tickets for this trip, but van tripbefore we even knew it, we were all buckled in and on our way. Journeying on the SSA road often brought us to intersections where we made the wrong turn. After that turn, we didn’t seem to be making any progress.  We argued, tried to interpret old maps, and then gave up when rejection was the only response we’d get. We sometimes looked for better directions, but we just couldn’t find them. Our destination, all we really wanted, was our child’s happiness. Instead, it seemed that we were driving away from our goal. We were frustrated, seemingly alone, and confused. Signposts, erected by ordinances, indicated that we were going in the right direction. But what we experienced as we looked at the passenger seat was our child, completely fixated on what was outside his window, a window to his future filled with promises of a love that he somehow didn’t see in the front seat or in the passenger seat beside him. When we finally admitted to having made that wrong turn 50 miles ago, we didn’t want to admit to having traveled so far in the wrong direction. So, we thoughtlessly continued for 50 more miles. At one point, a bright light blinded us; and we swerved and came to a halt.  We got out of the car, saw the light and we knew. The direction we had taken was clearly the wrong way. We had to turn back.  It was uphill most of the way, and not everyone felt very safe as we drove against the traffic; but we made it back to that intersection.  One hundred miles later, at that crossroads, we studied the oldest map more carefully and realized that we’d have to go back to Father’s house, and then go on from there.

For our family, prayer, conversion and faithfulness brought us to the solution.  May God truly bless you on your journey and bring you and your family to life, a life to the full. John 10:10.
