No Christian hooray:
The basic idea is these groups and individuals are attempting to use the children of Middle America, the innocent children of America, for their own twisted and perverse gratification.Stephen Bennett of Straight Talk Radio said: "When Hollywood is pumping out anti-family movies with sexually explicit, twisted and perverse themes that glorify homosexuality, transsexuality and every other kind of sexual immorality - then awarding itself for doing so - Middle America better take note.
"Hollywood (has) exposed its own corrupt agenda. (It) is no doubt out on a mission to homosexualise America."

It's not allowed to question the intensity of focus on the invisible "agenda" of sex and sexual deviancy to the exclusion of other at least equally endangering "agendae".
Imagine an Iraqi man whose 10 year-old son's had his legs blown off by American military with quotations from the New Testament on their equipment. Think he's all down with Jesus?
Turning your innocent children over to the hidden agenda that produced that disgusting phenomenon seems to be hunky-dory and right in line with the will of the Almighty.
Sex is bad, killing infidels is good. Makes a kind of sense, but it's not comforting sense.
Presenting sexual minorities as at least potentially mentally healthy is threatening to something, though it's not the innocent of this moment - it's the innocent in the erstwhile guardians themselves, that child back there in the past who learned how awful sex was, so terrible that no one was allowed to talk about it, or show it on TV or in the movies. So terrible that the sight of a woman's breast, the breast of a mother nursing her own baby in a public place, was and is nauseating and obscene.
There's a sexual pathology at work there that's desperate to maintain its invisibility, and it's in conflict with something that's been treated as a sexual pathology that's insisting that it's not and is trying to attain visibility.
Annie Proulx's had an agenda all along, that was obvious from Accordion Crimes. But it's not necessarily a dangerous one.
You'd think the idea of priorities would be so commonplace it wouldn't need any more emphasis, but there it is again. People getting whipped into a frenzy by something that may or may not be a threat to their children, while ignoring completely things that are provably and immediately and dangerously threatening.
Why is that, we ask?
Someone's else's agenda, who doesn't have your best interest at heart.
