Dear friends You may have seen the recent story out of the UK about children as young as eight who were sexually abused for years while in the care of two homosexuals. But a much-needed response was slow in coming because social workers were worried about being seen as homophobic and judgmental. It is political correctness gone absolutely nuts when we allow these sorts of things to happen. We seem more intent on placating the militant homosexual lobby than we are in defending children from abuse. I have written about this whole nasty state of events here: http://www.billmuehlenberg.com/2007/09/07/when-pc-endangers-children/ We know that children are least likely to be abused when raised by their own two biological married parents. The research on this is quite clear. A new book on the importance of marriage and the dangers of same-sex marriage has just been penned. You can see my review of this book here: http://www.billmuehlenberg.com/2007/09/05/a-review-of-conjugal-america-by-allan-carlson/ Also, gender matters. A new booklet on 21 reasons why gender matters will soon be launched at Parliament House. The last editorial changes are being made. It is an involved and time consuming job, so keep me, and others, in prayer as we seek to finalize this document. It is hoped this booklet will make a real difference in the culture wars. What we do to our children, they will do to society. Pliny the Elder, Roman scholar Bill Muehlenberg CultureWatch http://www.billmuehlenberg.com ~~~ Note from Rowland: On this subject we occasionally post something we disagree with, and then add any responses to the article. Here's one, received 10/11/2008: '21 reasons about why gay men are diseased, mentally deranged criminals has to be the most outrageous document produced in a very long time. The mentioned recent review conducted by Paul Cameron conducted back in the 1980s that concluded that 25 to 40 percent of all recorded child molestation was homosexual and that homosexual pedophiles victimise far more children than do heterosexual pedophiles is total nonsense borne out by recent Australian studies. Incidentally, how amateurish for the aforementioned survey to be used in this manner. It has been found to be totally fictional and the author has been discredited so comprehensively by leading authorities. Paul Cameron has praised the Nazis and their treatment of gays while being thrown out of the American Psychological Association for his extreme and erroneous views. How can your organisation have any credibility when it is based on such outright hatred of fellow human beings who incidentally contribute just as much to our society as anyone. Homosexuality is no more a disease than is heterosexuality........to come up with a fabrication such as "Gender Disorientation Pathology" has to be one of the most ridiculous labels ever dreamed up in the Psychiatry world. I trust that when this document is brought before government authorities as stated on your website that the Rudd government treats it with the disdain it deserves. You're a disgrace to Australia and humanity in general, wake up to yourselves!' ~~~
