Summary: Wake up America!
Comment: I've read many of the reviews and it's obvious that people are either for the homosexual lifestyle or not. I am not. I never read anything that clearly states things I didn't know is happening in our country right now. Even if you don't like the manner or tone they write in, the facts stated - even if dozen or so are true - shows us the terrible path we are being forced to go. I'm buying dozens of books and giving them to family, co-workers, etc. God loves everyone! Even those in hell, but that doesn't mean that he accepts the behavior of those who sin (I know, we all sin). Unfortunately, the people who shout the loudest get heard. Whether they are doing right or wrong. Don't ever forget that it took only a handful of people who got together to further their agenda - whether it was the Minutemen in Boston, or the Supreme Court who ruled that since they didn't know when life started that they decided to leave it up to others and stop protecting preborn babies and made up the right of "privacy" - instead of ruling with the Constitution. Some ask that we don't make this political. If so, than why did you meet in Hartford, CT to rally for this "right." Even the MA judges told the legislature that they had to REWRITE the laws. You see it's not a right - it's a privilege - to those who know that marriage is for not only children, but for the common good and the family is the bedrock of civilization. This book WOKE me up. All should read it no matter who you are. I know that not all homosexuals are radical, but those few are pushing an agenda to silence us. I know, I work in a place where I am not comfortable expressing my views when someone else can shout their opposite views down the hallway. This book tells me what I've known in my gut for sometime. I am very sad. I have to make this anonymous or I may lose my job.

Summary: The truth about the gay rights movement
Comment: First, let me say that there is absolutely nothing wrong with being gay. However, that being said, there most certainly is something sinister and manipulative with what many gay people are doing politically, legally, and socially. Specifically, they are trying to pass laws and use spurious lawsuits to FORCE people to accept deviant and outright evil behavior, not to mention trying to destroy families and religious institutions. To quote a lesbian woman (a schoolteacher) I knew, they are trying to be subversive. They are trying to both force people to accept any type of behavior and to trick people into thinking it is wrong to complain about evil behaviors. This is ironic, considering homosexuality isn't evil. Obviously, they think it is....requiring an agenda.

Summary: Religious Fanaticism with political consequences...
Comment: 1. The entire basis of this book is a very debatable,. subjective, ideological Christian fundamentalist perspective on homosexuality. All the arguments against gay rights, all the logic, all the reasoning, is based on a certain version of Christianity. Thus, if their version of Christianity is wrong or false, then the whole book falls apart and has no real argument or rationale. And the sad truth is that Christianity is based on VERY sketchy historical data, and many scholars are now proving that the new testament is more myth than history, more fiction than fact (see the work of Earl Doherty, Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy, Alvar Ellegard, Randell Helms, Harold Leidner, Robert Price, G.A. Wells -- for starters...). In sum, without Christianity, these authors have no rational case. And since Christianity is based on dubious claims, well...you get the idea.
2. Sears and Osten seem to think it is their job to enforce God's rules on society. They seem to think it is their job to force their religious morality on the rest of us. Can't God enforce his own morals? Why does he need Sears and Osten? I mean, if homosexuality is so awful to God -- let him punish who he will at his own holy discretion. A god who needs Sears and Osten to be his hall monitors is a pretty weak god, no?
3. I am still not clear on how gays getting married affects my marriage at all. I am a man married to a woman. If my neighbor down the street marries someone of the same sex, how does that affect MY marriage? It doesn't make sense. If my neighbor wants to marry a tree -- does that mean I suddenly have to divorce my wife and marry a tree also? Of course not. These authors say again and again that gay marriage will "destroy" the institution of marriage -- how? why? There is no logic. Let consenting adults marry whoever they want. It doesn't effect you or me at all.
3. The Bible condemns fornication (sex outside of marriage) persistently, constantly, and all over the old and new testaments. It is a pervasrive, clear, and constantly repeated condemnation. Words about homosexuality are few and far between (especially in the new testament). Why don't Sears and Osten wage a campaign against fornication? Why don't they write a book called THE FORNICATORS' AGENDA? Why don't they seek to keep fornicators from attaining civil rights? Why don't they fight againt fornicators' rights to be parents or have health insurance? Because they know such a political movement would be ridiculous, unpopular, and downright silly. But people do fear and hate homosexuals - -- aha, Sears and Osten have theit target!
4. By the way, the scholarship was shoddy. They had some facts about Scandinavia, for example, and when I looked up the citation in their end-notes, there was no exact bibliograpohical info. Just some guy's last name. How does that help me look up their sources?
5. This book is the reason we all need to stay informed about the dangerous political aspirations of the religious fanatics in this country.
