Election 2006: What is Means to the Traditional Family
By Rob Hood on Oct 25, 2006
At this moment in our nation’s history, the traditional family is under attack from every angle we can imagine. Secular worldviews are being taught as absolute fact in our public schools to impressionable children and most parents don’t even realize the unspeakable subjects being talked about in today’s public classrooms. Of course everyone knows about the unproven theory of evolution being indoctrinated and taught as absolute 100% fact by today’s public educators.
However, evolution in public schools is a topic for another day. It has been disproved and no one who is a real true Bible believer even takes it seriously anyway. The one topic that is being drilled and pressed today is the subject of homosexuality and the family.
Not all educators are liberals. In fact I would even say most public school teachers would not even go along with walking lock step with the infamous National Education Association anyway. The ones that do walk lock step with the secular world though are very dangerous in their methods of achieving their ultimate goal of secularizing America by starting with young impressionable minds.
Now more than ever, parents need an alternative education solution to this outrageous madness that has long been out of control. Parents need to realize that home-schooled children is the answer. If not home school, then private conservative Christian schools will do. In these environments, there is little room for impressionable minds to hear that abortion is okay and homosexuality is normal. A child raised in a Christian home who is home-schooled will never hear these types of myths and outright abominations. A child raised in this type of environment will only see Darwin as a figure of Science who concocted a theory that no one has ever been able to prove or even find fossil evidence of to even suggest it is possible.
In today’s public school the teaching of tolerance and acceptance of homosexuality is the going thing, but that confuses children who hear that this is immoral and wrong on Sunday in church, but then hears that it is okay on Monday from the teacher. The same goes for the abortion issue as well. Just what has homosexuality and abortion have to do with elementary education or any education at all for that matter? That’s a subject left up to parents to discuss.
So many of today’s extreme left politicians and other powerful figures are trying to change America by indoctrinating her youth with negative 1960s principles of classic secular liberalism. They challenge parents when parents clearly have a right to know what is being taught in public schools. Liberal politicians argue that what is taught in the classroom should stay in the classroom, but parents who pay taxes to build those schools say differently. As long as parents have to foot the bill for teacher pay raises and top notch school buildings, they should have a right to be involved.
Those same secular liberals who challenge the right of a parent to know what goes on in a school classroom are also condemning churches for not being “tolerant and diverse” enough. In other words, they want God kicked out of church too. If these far left people gain power in November, there is no telling what they will do to America. They certainly can’t do it any good.
These secular liberals are the very people who took prayer out of schools, the Ten Commandments out of schools, are proceeding on taking the Bible out of all the school libraries, and are so angry that some want an alternative view of Darwin’s failed and unproven theory that they will go to any length to make sure that God stays out of the public scene.
Not only do these people want God never mentioned in public ( including and especially at CHRISTmas), but they side with horrible organizations like the ACLU and Planned Parenthood. Groups like MoveOn.org, NOW, and NARAL tuck these politicians under their protective scaly wings.
The family itself is in danger and the secular liberals will only make it worse. Remember Senator John Kerry? He actually said that WE THE PEOPLE did not need a Federal Marriage Amendment and that this issue should be a state issue, not a federal. Well, some actually believed this half baked idea. So far every state who has voted ban same-sex marriage has passed the law overwhelmingly. That in itself says that the majority of Americans do not want same-sex marriage to be legal, but the secular liberals like John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi, Howard Dean, and numerous others desire to force their agenda on the majority of America. They can’t do it through legislation, so they use the courts by having super liberal judges who would vote their way put in power on the bench. I am sure this is not what the founding fathers would have seen coming. If we fail to get a Federal Marriage Amendment in place, the traditional family could be in serious trouble because at the state level, some slick liberal judge will just strike down the law anyway to suit his or her own agenda. That is why the federal Marriage Amendment is so important. We have to make an amendment to the constitution to support marriage as between one man and one woman and make it in such a way that no judge has the power to touch it. It has to be an Amendment that is etched in stone and this will never happen as long as a secular liberal Democrat is in power.
Of course there are some good Democrats left, but most nowadays follow lock step with such figures as Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Howard Dean, John Kerry, and others. The others who are not walking lock step with the secular liberal agenda get literally persecuted to the point they are driven from the party or voted out. Take a look at Joe Lieberman. I personally don’t agree with him on most things, but when he sided with most Americans on the war on terror, he was valued as a modern day Judas Iscariot to the Democrat party all because he chose to use his own brain and think for himself instead of walking lock step with the superior liberals who run the Democrat Party.
These lock stepped Democrats as previously mentioned push hard for abortion on demand by calling it “a woman’s right to choose”. They push hard for same sex marriage in the name of “civil rights”, and then push for same sex unions and homosexuality in general in the name of “tolerance and diversity”. The issue of same-sex marriage has literally split churches for some odd unknown reason. The Bible clearly points out that God created a woman for Adam, not another man. A man, a woman, and children has been the natural God given order of things since the first family and now secular liberals want to change God’s original plan. Of course, for those who don’t believe in creation, don’t believe in the Bible anyway. If they did, they simply could not accept abortion and homosexuality as anything other than sin. This issue is not hard, but sin divides people groups and Satan has done a wonderful job of driving wedge issues in America and believe it or not, some people are not on God’s side of this.
Same-sex marriage is not negotiable under Biblical standards. Neither is heterosexual co-habitation for that matter. It never has been right in the sight of God and it never will be. What is really dangerous though is when small impressionable schoolchildren are taught the direct opposite and are not allowed to discuss the matter further. They are to believe what they are told in the classroom and not questions it - especially to parents. There are even small children’s books available now with stories of other children with “two mommies” or “two daddies”. The fact of the matter is that a family is a man, a woman, and the children and in no other way will anything other that be accepted among Bible believing Christians.
The secular liberals also have a plan to silence Christians over this issue and numerous other issues once they gain power. Ever heard of “hate crimes legislation”? Under a hate crime bill, a Christian who would refer to a homosexual as being sinful or an abortion being murder could be charged with speaking negatively towards a group and could end up in prison for it. Don’t believe me? Ask anyone in Canada or England or Sweden what happens if you read from Leviticus or Romans in church on Sunday. There has been more than one preacher locked up for this and there are sure to be more right here in the United States if these secular liberals gain power in November. They could ultimately rule their agenda without opposition by suppressing the voice of the people through ‘Hate crime legislation”.
If you want marriage to remain between one man and one woman from now on, you better be careful who you place in power because they could take away that centuries old view of traditional family in just one quick floor vote and there would nothing anyone could do about it. I urge you to think long and hard about who you choose to place in power. Before you vote on that individual in November ask yourself about their history and if they stand with you or against you on the issue of marriage. There is no central neutral ground. You either are for traditional marriage or against it and I hope that you decide well.
