Has America Passed the Point of no Return?
How long, o Lord? How long?
Weep and pray for your country! This should be a time of great mourning but also the most earnest supplication to God for delivery.

Blackboard Jungle Blackout
By Robert Knight | November 15, 2007 – 11:42 ET
When California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed two bills on Oct. 12 that essentially turn the state’s public schools over to homosexual and transgender activists, there was virtually no media coverage outside California. There still isn’t.
Beginning in January 2008, California public schools must teach children as young as 3 to 5 years old that homosexuality is a normal, healthy lifestyle and that kids can choose their “gender.” This means banning the terms “husband” and “wife” for the more progressively inclusive term “partner.” “Moms” and “dads” will morph into sexually neutral “parents.” Textbooks will be rewritten to blot out any reminder of married-couple-led families as a social norm. Gender-confused kids will get to use the restrooms of their choice. Any expression of negativity toward deviant sexuality will be punished as “bigotry.” The coming changes are so radical that they produce gasps or professions of disbelief from people who hear about it from sources outside the mainstream media.
Bruce Shortt, an advocate of private schooling who writes a periodic report called “the Continuing Collapse” about problems in government schools, provides this analysis:
So far, the media have maintained a near total news blackout on this development.
A recent article [at Medill Reports online] on homosexual gains in the schools reflects how the advocates of legislation to mainstream deviant lifestyles plan to respond to queries from naive or fellow travelling reporters:
With the October signing of Senate Bill 777, California is the most recent state to have seen a battle between the two sides. Its sponsor, state Rep. Sheila Kuehl of Los Angeles, said the bill did little more than make language in the education code consistent with language in the state’s other anti-discrimination laws. Discrimination based on sexual identity, she said, had been illegal in California for eight years.
So, the official story line is that SB 777 just makes technical changes that bring the Education Code into conformity with other laws that have been on the books for a long time. In other words, “nothing to see here folks, just move along.”
Of course, Kuehl is right in a sense. After all, we could pass legislation requiring Jack Daniel’s to be served in school cafeterias, and then claim that we are just making the Education Code consistent with other laws that have been on the books for years (the Volkstead Amendment was repealed over 70 years ago, and drinking alcohol is legal in California).
Leaving aside the question of any prior California legislation regarding deviant lifestyles and ADULTS, the relevant question is whether Zelda’s “advanced thoughts” on this subject should be inflicted on children. The reporter, as you will note, didn’t really get to this, and she entirely missed the importance of California’s brave new definition of “gender.”

Q: “Can government validate what nature does not?”
The priority of ideas and behavior is what this disagreement is all about. The rule of the mind – or its submission to carnal, unnatural priorities, appetites, choices, and behavior – and their unhealthy consequences.
Nature, itself, invalidates homosexual actions for there is neither mechanistic justification nor optional validation by consent under the laws of nature. [Often referred to by some as "a Darwinian dead-end."] To state otherwise is to give a perverse and simpleton voice to glands – not to powers of reason and its implicit tools of criteria and standards; tools which equip the human family with the ability to measure and anticipate consequences and thereby avoid some choices and choose others conducive to the healthy results of survival and progression.
The rule of the glands prioritizes such appetites at the expense of the kingdom of the mind and its inevitable recession as evidenced in every society of history past.
Should a branch of government attempt to validate what nature itself does not? Does “government criteria” equip us with the wisdom of vision for future generations? Lacking standards and their enablement, can we recognize – with foresight – the regression of our environment as thinking/choicemaking beings? Nature and History say, “No.” Instead, we will become throw-back creatures of an insatiable, grunting, lascivious, and unnatural conduct.
Can anyone doubt that homosexuals, even in defining themselves primarily by their sexual appetite, reveal an unbalanced obsession with the carnal rather than the mental? Such desires can and do distort perception and judgment; principles and standards have minor or non- meaning for a those whose decisions are dominated by physical appetites triggered by glandular secretions — not ideas.
In homosexuality, civilization rightly sees the threat of an anti-standards, anti-mind, anti-survival perversion of human nature. Seen against the background of history and nature, terms like “deviant,’ “perverse,” “weird,” and “aberrant,” are not epithets, then, but appropriate descriptions of homosexual behavior. Calling a homosexual “gay” is, in fact, an inhumane act, for it substitutes a platitude for the first requirement of healing such psychological cripples: objective recognition of their condition.
Additionally, many of today’s psychiatrists have unscientifically finalized and capitulated to an illness they have ignorantly misunderstood; mis-applying a public confession of inadequacy and accomodation for sound diagnosis, treatment, relief and cure. Recall that “True science knows No Final Answers – only on-going questions.”
Human experience is a kingdom of the mind and standards are its tools of measure and foresight. The public has the right and the obligation to set those standards and and to reject the abnormal and aberrant in the interest of posterity. On the larger loom of history, the struggle we are
