Gallup Poll May, 2003

• 60 of Americans think homosexual relations
  between consenting adults should be legal (up
  from 43 in 1977, 47 in 1989 and 54 in 2001)
• 88 of Americans believe gays should receive
  equal opportunity provisions in the workplace,
  just like other minorities. (up from 80 in
  2001)
• Concerning marriage, the poll split evenly with
  49 for and 49 against granting gays the
  privileges and rights of marriage.

• Based on 1948 Kinsey Research
• Kinsey Research flawed
• Database included a high percentage of prison
  inmates and known sex offenders.
• Convicted criminals comprised a full 25 of
  Kinseys male sample, compared to less than 1 of
  the total U.S. population
• Newsweek, (2/93) Ideology, not sound science,
  has perpetuated a 1-in-10 myth. In the nearly
  half century since Kinsey, no survey has come
  close to duplicating his findings.

We Are Told That 10 Of Population Are Homosexual

Gay Activist Admissions The most widely
accepted study of sexual practices in the United
States is the National Health and Social Life
Survey (NHSLS). The NHSLS found that 2.8 of the
male, and 1.4 of the female, population identify
themselves as gay, lesbian, or bisexual This
amounts to nearly 4 million openly gay men and 2
million who identify as lesbian. (Friend of
the Court brief, 31 homosexual and pro-homosexual
groups. Lawrence VS Texas)

• Other figures
• Men aged 20-39, 1.1 exclusively homosexual in
  past 10 years (Alan Guttmacher sponsored study)
• Less than 3 admit to being gay. (1992 NY Times
  post election poll)
• Other figures 2 (Bell/Weinberg, 1970) 3.1

15
Gen. 191-28
4 Now before they lay down, the men of the city,
the men of Sodom, both old and young, all the
people from every quarter, surrounded the house.
5 And they called to Lot and said to him,
"Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring
them out to us that we may know them carnally."
16
Gen. 191-28
24 Then the LORD rained brimstone and fire on
Sodom and Gomorrah, from the LORD out of the
heavens. 25 So He overthrew those cities, all
the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and
what grew on the ground. 26 But his wife looked
back behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
27 And Abraham went early in the morning to the
place where he had stood before the LORD. 28
Then he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and
toward all the land of the plain and he saw, and
behold, the smoke of the land which went up like
the smoke of a furnace.
17
Lev. 1822
22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman.
It is an abomination.
18
Lev. 2013
13 If a man lies with a male as he lies with a
woman, both of them have committed an
abomination. They shall surely be put to death.
Their blood shall be upon them.
19
Deut. 2317
17 "There shall be no ritual harlot of the
daughters of Israel, or a perverted one of the
sons of Israel.
20
1 Kings 1424
24 And there were also perverted persons in the
land. They did according to all the abominations
of the nations which the LORD had cast out before
the children of Israel.
21
1 Kings 2246
46 And the rest of the perverted persons, who
remained in the days of his father Asa, he
banished from the land.
22
Judges 1922-30
22 As they were enjoying themselves, suddenly
certain men of the city, perverted men,
surrounded the house and beat on the door. They
spoke to the master of the house, the old man,
saying, "Bring out the man who came to your
house, that we may know him carnally!" 23 But
the man, the master of the house, went out to
them and said to them, "No, my brethren! I beg
you, do not act so wickedly! Seeing this man has
come into my house, do not commit this outrage.
24 Look, here is my virgin daughter and the
man's concubine let me bring them out now.
Humble them, and do with them as you please but
to this man do not do such a vile thing!" 25 But
the men would not heed him. So the man took his
concubine and brought her out to them. And they
knew her and abused her all night until morning
and when the day began to break, they let her go.
23
Judges 1922-30
26 Then the woman came as the day was dawning,
and fell down at the door of the man's house
where her master was, till it was light. 27 When
her master arose in the morning, and opened the
doors of the house and went out to go his way,
there was his concubine, fallen at the door of
the house with her hands on the threshold. 28
And he said to her, "Get up and let us be going."
But there was no answer. So the man lifted her
onto the donkey and the man got up and went to
his place. 29 When he entered his house he took
a knife, laid hold of his concubine, and divided
her into twelve pieces, limb by limb, and sent
her throughout all the territory of Israel. 30
And so it was that all who saw it said, "No such
deed has been done or seen from the day that the
children of Israel came up from the land of Egypt
until this day. Consider it, confer, and speak
up!"
24
Romans 124-29
24 Therefore God also gave them up to
uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to
dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who
exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and
worshiped and served the creature rather than the
Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. 26 For
this reason God gave them up to vile passions.
For even their women exchanged the natural use
for what is against nature.
25
Romans 124-29
27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use
of the woman, burned in their lust for one
another, men with men committing what is
shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty
of their error which was due. 28 And even as
they did not like to retain God in their
knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind,
to do those things which are not fitting 29
being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual
immorality, wickedness, covetousness,
maliciousness full of envy, murder, strife,
deceit, evil-mindedness they are whisperers,
26
1 Cor. 69-10
9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not
inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived.
Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor
adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10
nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor
revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the
kingdom of God.
27
1 Tim. 19-10
9 knowing this that the law is not made for a
righteous person, but for the lawless and
insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners,
for the unholy and profane, for murderers of
fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
10 for fornicators, for sodomites, for
kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if
there is any other thing that is contrary to
sound doctrine,
28
Jude 7
7 as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around
them in a similar manner to these, having given
themselves over to sexual immorality and gone
after strange flesh, are set forth as an example,
suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

A Learned Behavior

• Seen in that the Bible Condemns it
• Same with any sin (drinking, fornication)
• Testimony of Gay Lesbian Community

35
Camille Paglia, - Lesbian Activist Writer No
one is born gay. The mere idea that that is
possible is a flimsy fabrication of sloppy
journalists and amoral queer activists. Any
person, male or female, who cannot feel the
sexual allure of the opposite sex has been
traumatized by some early combination of social
circumstances.

Contributing Factors
