AUDIO BROADCAST:
Homosexuality a Greater Threat Than Terrorism
Let the Bible Speak Radio
Dr. Alan Cairns
Sally Kern is an Oklahoma State Representative and she is in big trouble. She had the temerity to tell the truth about the scourge of homosexuality-and, of course, that is a subject on which some very strong vested interests are determined that Americans will not be permitted to hear the truth. Representative Kern spoke to a gathering of state Republicans and told them that homosexuality posed a greater threat to America than did terrorism. Speaking about the dangers of homosexuality, she described the homosexual lifestyle as a “death knell” for the country, noting that people involved in it have more suicides, discouragement, illness and shorter life spans. “Studies show that no society that has totally embraced homosexuality has lasted more than a few decades,” she said.
Kern also addressed the effort by homosexual activists to indoctrinate children as young as two years old into believing that homosexuality is an acceptable lifestyle and said, “This stuff is deadly and it’s spreading. It will destroy our young people and this nation.” Kern insisted that she was not speaking as a homophobe. She stated, “I’m not anti, I’m not gay bashing but according to God’s word, that is not the right kind of lifestyle.”
Each of these opinions is entirely defensible. In fact, they are entirely correct. The Bible is adamantly against homosexuality. God has denounced it in the strongest terms. Kern was right in assessing the danger that national acceptance of homosexuality poses to America. Terrorists have killed thousands of Americans and will keep on trying to kill thousands more. But they cannot and will not destroy this great nation. Homosexuality, on the other hand, is eating away the moral fiber of this nation; it is destroying it from the inside. The homosexual lobby is determined to corrupt our children from their earliest years. They have already succeeded in subverting the constitution and courts of the land to grant cover to their perversion. They have prevailed on some liberal churches to receive them and their lifestyle as compatible with Christianity, so that in some churches you have practicing homosexuals as ministers or bishops. Unless they are stopped, they will not give up until they have led the nation to moral and spiritual suicide. So Representative Kern was right on the money with her analysis.
For her honesty she has received more than 7000 e-mails and voice messages, most of them hostile. She even received a number of death threats. If there is one thing the sodomite lobby cannot stand it is freedom of speech for its critics.
America would do well to listen to the Oklahoma lawmaker’s warning. The nation that accepts homosexuality as a legitimate lifestyle is self-condemned to the dustbin of history. Let us learn the lesson and never forget it: legitimizing and promoting the homosexual lifestyle will do to America what all the Islamo-fascists in the world cannot do. Sally Kern was right: homosexuality poses a greater threat to the country than Osama bin Laden and his band of brigands ever could.

“I Grew Up in a Polygamist Family.” | Today’s Christian Woman | Your Life. Your Faith. Your World.
“I Grew Up in a Polygamist Family.”
My fundamentalist Mormon background taught me to “keep sweet,” but my heart longed for something more.
Kathy as told to Jan Brown
I was one of 13 children raised by our father and three mothers in a polygamist community in Utah. We were fundamentalist Mormons who practiced the original teachings of Mormonism from its founder Joseph Smith. This teaching includes following the Principle, which states a man must practice polygamy—marrying at least three wives—to enter the Celestial Kingdom.
Even though I knew which woman was my biological mother, we were encouraged to treat all the wives the same. Outwardly, our family seemed content, but beneath the surface lay jealousy and pain. We never acknowledged these feelings because we were supposed to sacrifice our emotions. Even laughter was discouraged.
We were constantly told to “keep sweet” and that “perfect obedience produces perfect faith.” Behind these sugary slogans lay the impossible duty of living in complete obedience to the Prophet.
Losing My Religion
In Fundamental Latter Day Saints (FLDS), the Prophet is the earthly leader and mediator between God and man. Women are on this earth to serve their husband and obey the Prophet. If a woman does this faithfully, her husband may invite her to join him in the Celestial Kingdom. A woman’s eternal fate depends on keeping this Principle.
My thoughts mocked me, You’re an idiot for leaving! You didn’t stay sweet and obey the Prophet! You’re going to hell!
The Prophet is in charge of the Placement of young girls in marriage. The quality of her Placement depends on her level of sweetness. Knowing this, I tried very hard to live in obedience. At age 14, I began sewing my wedding dress in anticipation of my Placement. I hoped I’d like my future husband, but I feared my fate would be like those who never knew love.

Positive & Negative Words - Why the 5-to-1 ratio works
By Peggy Bert
Why do so many of us remember—in detail—all the negative things our spouse did or said, from the beginning of the relationship until today? “You’re always late.” “This place is a mess.” “You never listen to me.”
Why can’t a big bouquet of roses or a coveted ticket to a favorite sporting event make up for several things that caused hurt feelings? Why do we remember critical remarks more than positive ones? You can blame it on the brain.
Studies conducted by Dr. John Cacioppo of the University of Chicago have shown what he calls “the negativity bias” of the brain. Our brains are actually more sensitive and responsive to unpleasant news. That’s why personal insults or criticism hit us harder and stay with us longer. It’s why negative ads are more effective than positive ones—political or otherwise.
It’s a numbers game
Not only do we have a built-in partiality toward negative information, but negatives increase disproportionately over positives. It’s not a one-to-one ratio. In other words, one positive cannot offset one negative. When you tell your husband, “Thanks for giving the kids a bath, honey,” and five minutes later say, “You forgot to take out the trash—again,” the negative drowns out the positive.
Our brain needs a higher number of positive entries to counterbalance this built-in negativity bias. And several small, frequent, positive acts pack more punch than one giant-size positive. The size of the positive doesn’t count; quantity does. It’s strictly a numbers game.
That’s why throwing his wife an expensive surprise birthday party at a fine restaurant can’t make up for a husband’s daily negative behavior and remarks. And a wife’s present to her husband of that new riding mower he had his eye on won’t compensate for her continual nagging and critical comments. One super-size positive cannot offset multiple negatives.
