Editor: In the three decades of the fight over homosexual special rights, pro-family activists have learned a stern and painful lesson — that the battle always eventually arrives at the doorsteps of those who do their best to avoid it.
This is not unjust or unfair. It is simply the way the world works. Evil is insatiable; no matter how much ground it conquers, no matter how many millions of lives it ruins or destroys, it will aggressively continue to spread. It will only be appeased when it completely dominates or exterminates the good. The only way to keep evil out of our nations, out of our cities, out of our villages and out of our very souls is to constantly and energetically resist it.
If we fail to fight, we will have only ourselves to blame as evil pollutes and corrupts every aspect of our lives. The longer we wait to take concrete action, the harder the fight will be. As the same sex union agenda inexorably progresses at the moment, in some countries, adoption agencies are being forced by law to give children to homosexual “couples;” pastors are being jailed for preaching against sodomy; those who oppose homosexual “marriages” are losing their jobs and their livelihoods; and in some nations it is illegal to publicly say anything at all unfavourable about homosexuality.
The time to speak out is now — while it is still legal to do so! If the same sex union bill is allowed to progress beyond the censorship stage to the coercion stage, it will be too late.
We will be forced to attend “gay pride” parades, as some have been compelled to do in Canada and Scotland. We will be forced to applaud homosexuality, as many school children and college students are now required to do. We will be forced to undergo homosexual-led brainwashing, as many government employees have been obliged to do in the United States.
The cost of speaking out will be much, much higher if the same gender marriage bill progresses much further.
