Government Sponsors Gay Pride Website
"Oh, my God, we're living in a theocracy!" howls Maureen Dowd. Well, you'd never know it from the actions of our federal government.
Believe it or not, the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services sponsors a "Gay Pride" website, http://ncadi.samhsa.gov/features/lgbt. And guess whose tax dollars pay for it!
The message of this website can be summed up in a few words. Homosexuals and the rest of 'em are "an oppressed population" whose problems are all society's fault. Thanks to the "stigma, alienation, and discrimination" practiced by homophobic, heterosexist America, these "lead to deleterious behaviors such as abusing alcohol, tobacco, or illicit drugs, attempted suicide, or denying sexual identification or sexual orientation." If it weren't for our narrow-minded disapproval of their lifestyle, these poor souls wouldn't have any problems at all. At least, that's how the U.S. government sees it.
This is not how a "theocracy" behaves, unless it's a secular humanist theocracy.
If you're upset about your hard-earned tax dollars being spent to preach the LBGT gospel, you can email CSAP Representative Nancy Kennedy, nkennedy@samhsa.gov. You might also want to make a phone call to your Congressman.
