Queer Fiction: The Top 10 Deceptions of 'LGBTQ' History Month (Part 2)

(Editor's Note: Part 1 of this series can be found HERE. It included deceptions 1-4.)

5. Removal of homosexuality from psychological disorders was a long overdue justice. No, it was an early example of organized homosexual fascism in action. In 1973, the diagnosis of homosexuality as a psychiatric disorder was removed from the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual II. This victory was won not through science but by relentless, often vicious and deceptive “gay” activism. Homosexuals grabbed microphones at APA meetings, blew whistles to disrupt speakers, falsified credentials to gain access to private sessions, made threats, and became a general nuisance. It’s a much longer story, but suffice to say, activism worked. Just barely enough psychiatrists caved in a critical vote (with material written by homosexual activists), and the designation was removed. Much of this history is detailed in Homosexuality and the Politics of Truth by Jeffrey Satinover, MD. This paved the way for the next decades of “progress” in Western nations, as “out” homosexuals now demanded an array of new rights. Gender identity disorder was downgraded in 2013 in the DSM-5 to a far less consequential label—“gender dysphoria.”

The reality is that this conduct remains disordered and unnatural behavior. Self-professed “LGBTQ” individuals still report far more mental health disorders than those in the majority heterosexual population. And the level of vitriol of this movement toward conservative values and the subsequent bigotry toward Christians is a red flag of ongoing but now mainstreamed emotional disturbance. It’s totally acceptable among many “LGBTQ” communities to hate, verbally attack, and even physically attack conservatives.

6. AIDS became “everyone’s risk.” After its identification in 1981 until the release of prophylactic medication to minimize HIV risk (2012), America’s Left quickly bought and dutifully transmitted one long and mostly untrue narrative: we all share this risk. It wasn’t just males who had sex with males. All sexual behavior must now be scrutinized.

So, the solution? Throw billions of federal dollars into research and pound into everyone’s head that they were homophobic for still thinking anal sex was depraved. It’s “just another way to love,” we were told. But the truth remained: the vast majority of HIV infections have been among males who have anal sex with males, followed by a lower risk for IV drug users, followed by those who have sex with homosexual males, IV drug users, or prostitutes. Risks from blood transfusions were virtually eliminated by the late 1980s.

Yet America now needed to make sure middle and high schoolers were taught about their “equal risk” and then overwhelmed with early normalization of homosexual sex practices and condom demonstrations, dismissing abstinence-only education as ineffective when virtually all “objective” research, full of conflicts of interest, was funded by Big Pharma and Big Abortion.

The result was another huge lie to our children, now bringing the corruption of youth under an umbrella of “evidence-based practices.”

So in the 1990s, a new type of sex education debuted, which was much more graphic, more focused on oral and anal sex risks, and it was all justified by “HIV prevention.” It’s now morphed into “comprehensive sex education” (CSE) and pedaled by Planned Parenthood and other “LGBTQ” and pro-abortion groups. It meets the new demand to be inclusive because it provides equal time for your 12-year-old to learn about vaginal, oral, and anal sex. They hardly mention HIV risk anymore because they got what they wanted: children being exposed to the details of homosexual sex practices.

If this seems like a scheme from Satan to divert focus from the real problem (male homosexual sexual activity) to making big money from government grants while grooming children, you would be correct.

And if you recall, the funding for AIDS research came about as a result of street tactics by the “gay” movement’s ACT UP group. They felt no guilt in trashing St. Patrick’s Cathedral, placing corpses on the White House lawn, or staging disruptions in the name of getting desired priority research and treatment for AIDS. As usual, “tolerance” and “respect” were a one-way street, and taking responsibility for one’s actions (like maybe deciding not to have anal sex) has not been on the list of “ethics” for much of the homosexual movement.

Back then, I was a liberal who totally bought the excuse that their body-compromising methods of having sex were justified because this was how they expressed their “born-that-way” love.

I have since unlearned the multiple lies buried in this narrative and how destructive the deception has been to these people themselves and to American culture.

7. These behaviors are not a threat to children. “Gays are not all pedophiles!” goes the typical protest against any hint of such a claim. And they are partially right. It’s true, not all “LGBTQ” adults are after children for sex. Yet many look the other way, and then, there is the fairly substantial segment who are attracted to young teens (“pederasts”).

There’s no doubt that sex with youth is normalized and tolerated. Where are the “LGBTQ” folks saying “No way!”? They are MIA. It’s even celebrated within the halls of “inclusion” (see: Harvey Milk). Many so-called “non-pedophile” adults who claim an “LGBTQ” identity advocate the exposure of children to inappropriate material and influences of all types - pornographic novels, mature videos, semi-nude adults at pride parades, etc.

The promotion of “LGBTQ” behaviors to children at school is what Mission America has spent much time exposing over the past 25 years. From the horrific establishment of immoral school clubs ( “GSAs” or similar), to the proliferation of obscene novels in school libraries and “drag queen” performances, it would be difficult to imagine that historically Christian America would let this unfold. Yet here we are.

Aside from instances of molestation, both physical and mental, “LGBTQ” actions have impeded the salvation of children by Jesus. Millstones await many (Matthew 18:6).

8. There are no ex-homosexuals/transgenders, and they deserve no voice. Just as no one is born homosexual or in the wrong body, there is ample evidence that those who have these inclinations can change direction. Thousands of former “LGBTQ” individuals (maybe more) can testify to this reality, and yet this is eliminated as a permissible category of “diversity.” The homosexual activist movement has spent millions backing legislation opposing change therapy (falsely labeled “conversion therapy”) and has blocked every attempt at public recognition of an “ex-gay” or “ex-transgender” viewpoint.

With the blossoming of conservative media, that is changing, especially for de-transitioner former transgenders. A fair, just, and authentically diverse climate will allow for these voices.

9. Same sex “marriage” is an expression of equality. The truth is that there has long existed actual marriage equality —a male marries a female. The movement to foist this heresy on all of America was assisted by GOP Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney (read the awful truth HERE), assisted by corrupt judges and numerous spineless politicians and ministers afraid of being seen as hateful. What we got as a result is an empowered sin movement on steroids, believing “LGBTQ” endorsement can legitimately be demanded of everyone, even schoolchildren.

And remember all the claims that same sex “marriage” would never be a threat to your marriage, hetero person? But same sex “marriage” has legitimized the promotion of all the “LGBTQ” behaviors to everyone, including children and teens, and a reason to silence all critics. Accompanying such promotion is often anti-parent violation of consent, and anti-Christian messaging to deny religious liberty. The “LGBTQ” movement has done untold damage in undermining Christian freedom of speech.

10. Greece and Rome prove that homosexuality is acceptable and inborn. Excusing current sodomy because “it was common in Greece and Rome” (and we all know what exemplary cultures those were) is a serious distortion of history. What actually took place provides much more evidence for the traditional Christian “not-born-that-way” narrative. Apparently, homosexual “hook-ups” between a heterosexually-identified, often married adult male and a younger male partner were common in these ancient cultures, with the older male taking the dominant sexual position. It was considered prestigious for some. Homosexual identities were not needed for this activity, much like the pansexual or “queer” labels of today, reflecting not inborn but developed desires, desires that can be undeveloped ( see Ex-homosexuals/Transgenders above).

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

I could add many more points on the historical timeline, because there is no end of horror stories: how “transgender” suddenly became a noble cause legitimizing the mutilation of children, when it’s actually a grim money-making machine; how non-discrimination policies based on “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” have proliferated on the false claim that these are immutable and harmless traits; how the Supreme Court’s decision in Lawrence v. Texas overturning sodomy laws led to the travesty of same sex “marriage” but actually, sodomy remains disordered and high-risk; and how homosexual activism has targeted Christians through “lawfare,” employment “cancel” campaigns, doxxing, and much more.

HOPE... I do not want to leave out the element of human redemption here. No one is born to be “gay” or born in the wrong sex body, so none of this ever has to happen, and no more lives need be ruined by continuing down the road of depravity. Everyone is fully capable of leaving these desires and behaviors behind. Many have done so.

So my point is to detail the futility and damage that accompany sin, when humans never needed to do this in the first place.

I urge everyone to keep that fact in mind and to let the Lord lead each person to a better and more Christ-like place.

Jesus is coming soon. Repent!
