~ Attaining Holiness Through Really Acknowledging Christ By Really Acknowledging
Your Sins ~
From + Paul, S.S.B.
To the flock entrusted into my care:
You can only attain holiness through a real acknowledging of Christ. Real Acknowledgment of
Christ requires, absolutely requires, full and complete acceptance of every aspect of Our Lord's
teachings, combined with total immersion of His teachings into every particle of our being, both
physical and spiritual, so as to make us one with Him.
Viewing our Lord's teachings as being a good philosophy of life is not sufficient, and does not
make one a Christian. Being self willed, concerned with our own welfare, desires, and often
even being concerned with our own needs, will impede our real acknowledgment of Christ.
But what actually blocks our real acknowledgment of Christ is a refusal to really acknowledge
our sins. Real acknowledgment of our sins requires, absolutely requires, a deep and constant
contemplation of our sins even though they may have been long ago forgiven, an examination of
how they effected and continue to effect ourselves and others, and a contemplation of the fact,
the absolute fact, that though a particular sin is forgiven, there is still atonement which we each
must make for each and every one of our sins.
Some people have a problem with atonement for sins, saying Christ suffered and died for our
sins. That is an in incomplete and twisted statement which leads many to believe the lie
propounded by that incomplete and twisted statement. Christ suffered and died as a sin offering
to the Father, and in so doing, He enabled us to have a relationship with God which we were
unable to have because of sin. He did not establish that relationship, He merely enabled it - we
have to establish that relationship through Christ.
If you are to become a full and complete part of Christ's Body, then, just as Christ suffered and
died and rose again from the dead, so too will you suffer with Christ. None of us can make
atonement for our sins on our own, but when we make atonement with Christ as He suffered for
our sins, then our atonement, united with Christ's sufferings for us, is made into perfect
atonement, and thus becomes sufficient.
Contemplation of our sins is so important because we very often sin without acknowledging that
we have sinned, even though in the depths of our hearts we know we have sinned.
An excellent example of such sinning is this: Many people voted for Bill Clinton for president
because they believed he would provide economic conditions favorable to them. If such voters
also knew Clinton was pro abortion, then they voted for a man they knew would in one manner
or another promote killing babies. Such voters voted for him despite this knowledge that their
vote would cause the torture murder of many millions more babies. Such voters placed their own
well being ahead of the very lives of millions of babies. Such voters share in the sin and guilt of
these murders, and if such voters and sinners refuse to acknowledge these sins then they will not
seek forgiveness of these sins, and in not seeking forgiveness they will not receive forgiveness.
There are those who will not listen to these words; and there are others who will seek voices of
authority who will say these words are too harsh and are not accurate. Such voices of authority
had best make a real acknowledgment of Christ, and a real acknowledgment of their own sins,
before it is too late for themselves.
There are others who will think, "I know people 'like that'," but who will not include themselves
as being "like that". You are the first one who should be in your list of "people like that" - even
if you did not vote for Clinton.
Remember the story about the bishop who taught his flock there was no need to worry about the
hereafter - that all who died and had not been really bad, went to heaven. When that bishop died
he was fortunate to attain the lowest level of purgatory, where he remained until there was no
other person in purgatory. He had taught his flock to ignore worrying about the hereafter so well,
that when he died there was no one to pray for him - none of his flock was worried about the
hereafter.
Do not just be concerned about the hereafter - worry about it; worry about it "big time". Worry
about it enough to really acknowledge Christ, and to really acknowledge your sins. Then you
will be very inclined to do something about both. But you can not ignore the acknowledgment of
Christ, for if you contemplate your sins without full contemplation of Christ, then you will loose
Hope, you will become overly distraught, you will have no proper focus for life or eternity, and
you will defeat the purpose for which you contemplate your sins.

Gore Can't Get His Story Straight on 1984 Vote to Define Unborn Children As "Persons"
From Conception
By Douglas Johnson
NRLC Legislative Director
WASHINGTON
I remember reading something about a renowned Texas criminal defense lawyer named Richard
"Racehorse" Haynes. Haynes explained how, in defending a client against a criminal charge, he
never relied on just a single defense argument. Haynes' explanation of his method went
something like this:
"Let's say that your neighbor sues you, claiming that your dog bit him at such-and-such a time
and place. I will place three arguments before the jury, as follows: Number one, my client's dog
doesn't bite. Number two, my client and his dog were seen at a far-distant event on the day of the
alleged bite. And, number three . . . my client doesn't have a dog!"
Vice-president Al Gore has followed a somewhat similar pattern in responding to periodic
"charges" that he voted, in 1984, to amend a federal civil rights bill so that the term "person"
would "include unborn children from the moment of conception." In responding to this
allegation in 1988, 1992, and 1999, Gore has offered three different and conflicting explanations
of his vote, each of them false.
The basic facts are documented beyond dispute. On June 26, 1984, the U.S. House of
Representatives was considering the Civil Rights Act of 1984, a bill to expand the reach of key
provisions of four previously enacted federal civil rights laws, including the Civil Rights Act of
1964. Pro-life Congressman Mark Siljander (R-Mi.) offered a one-sentence amendment to revise
the bill's definition of the key term "person."
The Siljander Amendment read, in its entirety, "For the purposes of this Act, the term 'person'
shall include unborn children from the moment of conception."
The House conducted a straight up-and-down vote on the Siljander Amendment B which failed,
186-219. Al Gore, then the congressman representing Tennessee's Sixth Congressional District B
voted in favor of the amendment.
That vote is recorded on page H-7051 of the Congressional Record for June 26, 1984. (House
roll call no. 269.) It is also recorded on page 77-H of the 1984 Congressional Quarterly Almanac,
a reference work available at many libraries (CQ roll call no. 242).
By 1988, Gore was a senator who was voting consistently pro-abortion, running for the first time
for the Democratic presidential nomination. Appearing as a guest on NBC-TV's Meet the Press
on February 21, 1988, journalist Fred Barnes asked Gore, "Didn't you vote back in 1984 to set
when one becomes a person at the time of conception, which would have in effect, made abortion
illegal?"
Gore responded, "No. No. I did not."
One might read Gore's flat denial that had ever cast a vote to set "personhood" at conception as
equivalent to an immediate resort to Racehorse Haynes's ultimate line of defense, "my client
doesn't have a dog." Two weeks later (March 7, 1988), U.S. News and World Report chief
political correspondent Michael Kramer published a column in which he shed some light on
Gore's defense strategy:
'"Since there's a record of that vote, we only have one choice," concedes a Gore
adviser anonymously. 'In effect, what we have to do is deny, deny, deny. . . . We've muddled the point," says the Gore advisor, 'and with luck, attention will turn elsewhere, or at least we'll be lucky enough so the thing doesn't blow into a
full-fledged problem before Super Tuesday.'" ("Super Tuesday" referred to a then-imminent date
on which a number of southern states were holding their presidential primaries.)
Attention did indeed turn elsewhere as Gore's campaign faltered. With the exception of Kramer's
column, the media did not pursue the question of Gore's vote for the "personhood" amendment.
On September 6, 1992, Gore -- now Bill Clinton's vice-presidential running mate -- appeared
again on NBC=s Meet the Press. Host Tim Russert reopened the issue, saying, "In 1984 you
voted for a law which would define the fetus as a person from the moment of conception."
Gore immediately interrupted, this time not simply to deny the vote, but to interpret it.
"Now, there's a misunderstanding about that," Gore said. "That was not what that
[amendment] dealt with; that was a measure related to public hospitals and procedures in the
third trimester."
But Russert persisted, pointing out, "This would amend the Civil Rights Act to include 'unborn
children from the moment of conception' as persons."
Gore responded, "Well, first of all, again, that was in the context of U.S. government-funded
public hospitals for abortions in the third trimester. I think it's completely consistent with the Roe
v. Wade concept, which says there's a difference between the first, second, and third trimester."
But this explanation was misleading. The Siljander Amendment was only one
sentence long, as quoted above, and it specifically said "from the moment of
conception."
Congressman Siljander did say, in House floor debate, that an effect of his
amendment would be "to deny Federal funds to any institution performing abortions." Moreover,
he focused some of his remarks on late-term abortions performed in federally funded hospitals.
But Siljander did not say anything to support Gore's claim that the scope of the amendment was
limited to unborn children in the "third trimester," an interpretation that is flatly contradicted by
the amendment itself.
Recently, Gore was again asked about the Siljander Amendment, this time by journalist Cokie
Roberts on ABC's This Week, on October 31, 1999.
Roberts put the question this way: "Back in July [actually June] of 1984, when you were in the
House of Representatives, you voted for an amendment that would put 'unborn children from the
moment of conception' as persons under the Civil Rights Act, to be protected under the Civil
Rights Act. Would you vote that way today?"
Gore responded, "First of all, that was a procedural vote in the House. And I've
always supported Roe v. Wade, Cokie."
Gore's new explanation, like the earlier two, was false. There was nothing at all
"procedural" about the vote on the Siljander Amendment. The House simply voted up-or-down
on whether to adopt the amendment, and Gore voted yes.
The question arises: why has Gore thought it necessary to make such persistent efforts to deny
his "fetal personhood" vote? Why doesn't he simply admit that he cast the vote, and explain that
he later changed his position?
Perhaps it is because Gore knows that, if he admits that he once voted to recognize "unborn
children from the moment of conception" as legal "persons," it would become more difficult for
him to freely attack as "extremist" other political candidates who advocate legal protection for
unborn children. Such attacks would, after all, invite the question, "And on what date did you,
Mr. Gore, stop being an 'extremist'?"

~~~~~~~~~~
In effect, Gore and those of like ilk believe they have the ability to create personhood by voting it
upon an entity, and to deny personhood by voting to deny it to an entity. However, all unborn
babies are completely human persons weather or not Gore and his colleagues have attempted to
confer upon or deny personhood to them, for God confers it upon conception. - Ed.
THE "SEX WITH ABANDON IS NOT A SIN" CONSPIRACY
CONSPIRACY IS A WORD MANY FEAR TO USE, BUT IT IS A GOOD WORD . . . IT IS THE WORD WHICH DESCRIBES THE INTERRELATIONSHIPS AMONGST THE PROPONENTS OF COMMITTING, ACCEPTING, AND PROMOTING VARIOUS SINS
One of the main proponents of devious, harmful, devastation of children through sexual
attacks on children is THE AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION, which
issued a report in its Psychological Bulletin, that stated children do not suffer ill effects
from engaging in sex with adults. The NORTH AMERICAN MAN/BOY LOVE
ASSOCIATION is using the APA report to support its pedophilic promotions.
SOME CURRENT ELEMENTS OF THE
PRO -PEDOPHILIA
CONSPIRACY
From the NARTH Pedophilia Fact Sheet of 1999-03-22, www.narth.com.
NARTH National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality Fact Sheet:
The Problem of Pedophilia
Adult-Child Sex Is Not Necessarily "Abuse," Say Some Psychologists
For centuries, Western society - under the influence its foundational Judeo-Christian roots - has
considered adult-child sex to be legally, morally, and psychologically taboo. Pedophiles have
been judged criminal by the courts, sinful by theologians, and disordered by the mental-health
profession.
Slowly, however, that situation is changing.
A Fringe Element Begins to Enter the Mainstream
NAMBLA - the North American Man-Boy Love Association - was once the lone voice lobbying
for the normalization of pedophilia. NAMBLA representatives marched in gay-pride parades as a
fringe element of the gay-rights movement.
Then in 1990, the highly respected Journal of Homosexuality produced a special double issue
devoted to adult-child sex,, which was entitled "Male Intergenerational Intimacy" (1). One
article said many pedophiles believe they are "born that way and cannot change" (p.133). Another
writer said a man who counseled troubled teenage boys could achieve "miracles ... not by
preaching to them, but by sleeping with them." The loving pedophile can offer a "companionship,
security and protection" which neither peers nor parents can provide (p. 162). Parents should
look upon the pedophile who loves their son "not as a rival or competitor, not as a thief of their
property, but as a partner in the boy's upbringing, someone to be welcomed into their home..." (p.
164).
A British university professor writes: "Boys want sex with men, boys seduce adult men, the
experience is very common and much enjoyed" (p. 323) A professor of social science at the State
University of New York said he looks forward to the day when Americans will "get over their
hysteria about child abuse" (p.325) and child pornography.
A.P.A. Publishes a New Study Opening the Way to the Normalization of Pedophilia
The American Psychological Association did not denounce the positions advanced within that
journal. In fact, just recently, the A.P.A. published a new, major study (2) written by one of
those same Journal of Homosexuality writers.
This latest article appears in the A.P.A.'s own prestigious Psychological Bulletin. it provides,
overview of all of the research studying the harm resulting from childhood sexual abuse.
The authors' conclusion? That childhood sexual abuse is on average, only slightly associated with
psychological harm and that the harm may not be due to the sexual experience, but to the
negative family factors in the children's backgrounds. When the sexual contact is not coerced,
especially when it is experienced by a boy and is enjoyed, it may not be harmful at all.
The article proposes that psychologists stop using judgmental terms like "child-abuse,"
"molestation," and "victims," using instead neutral, value-free terms like "adult-child sex."
Similarly, they say we should not talk about "the severity of the abuse," but instead refer to "the
level of sexual intimacy."
The authors conclude that behavior which psychotherapists commonly term "abuse" may only
constitute a violation of social norms. Religion and society, these writers argue, are free to judge
behavior as they wish but psychiatry should evaluate behavior by its own set of standards.
If It Feels Good, It Must Be Good
In fact, the authors of the Psychological Bulletin article propose another way of understanding
pedophilia: that it may only be "abuse" if the child feels bad about the relationship. They are in
effect suggesting a repetition of the steps by which homosexuality was normalized. In its first
step toward removing homosexuality from the Diagnostic Manual, the A.P.A. said the condition
was normal as long as the person did not feel bad about it.
Few laymen are aware that the American Psychiatric Association has already set the stage for
this same transition-in the case of pedophilia-by quietly redefining it. NARTH first made this
story public in its membership publication (3). According to the latest diagnostic manual
(DSM-IV), a person no longer has a psychological disorder simply because he molests
children. To be diagnosed as disordered, now he must also feel anxious about the molestation,
or be impaired in his work or social relationships. Thus the A.P.A. has left room for the
"psychologically normal" pedophile.
Theology and the Law Are Led By Psychology
If psychology indeed recognizes consensual pedophilia as harmless, then civil law and social
norms will be under pressure to follow the lead of social science ... as indeed they did on the
issue of homosexuality. When psychiatry declared homosexuality normal, our courts and
theologians began to rewrite both civil lawand moral theology based on what psychiatry said it
had discovered through the medium of empirical science.
But What is a Psychological Disorder?
The problem with the law and society being a follower of psychology, is that the majority of
psychological conditions considered to be disorders are not disorders per se, but socially
undesirable character traits. What is categorized as a "psychological illness" depends on
psychiatry's view of the good life, and of human nature. And today, there is grave disagreement
on those subjects.
So when psychiatry decided to redefine homosexuality as normal, it simply moved the condition
from one category labeled "undesirable" to another category labeled "desirable." (4) It did so
based on a study showing that some homosexual individuals evidence no obvious psychological
abnormality (5), and, also, as a result of listening to personal testimony from gay advocates. In
essence, these individuals said, "We aren't psychologically unbalanced or distressed, and we're
happy being gay So psychiatry has no right to label us disordered."
Psychology Yields to the Authority of Personal Experience
The A.P.A. agreed with them. In doing so, it surrendered its authority to contradict personal
experience. At the same time, it relinquished the age-old conviction that human beings are
governed by certain immutable laws of nature.
As psychiatry becomes detached from its foundations, we hear more opinions such as these -
expressed by world-renowned, Professor Emeritus (Johns Hopkins U.) sexologist Dr. John
Money:
"If I were to see the case of a boy aged ten or eleven who's intensely erotically attracted toward a
man in his twenties or thirties, if the relationship is totally mutual, and the bonding is genuinely
totally mutual ...then I would not call it pathological in any way" (6).
And so we can see that a door has been opened.
Psychiatrist Jeffrey Satinover reflects on the Journal of Homosexuality's "Male
Intergenerational Intimacy":
"This special issue reflects the substantial, influential, and growing segment of the homosexual
community that neither hides nor condemns pedophilia. Rather they argue that pedophilia is an
acceptable aspect of sexuality, especially of homosexuality. Indeed, the San Francisco Sentinel, a
Bay Area gay-activist newspaper, published a piece arguing that pedophilia is central to male
homosexual life" (7).
Gay advocates correctly state that most child molesters are heterosexual males. But this is a
misleading statement. In proportion to their numbers (about 1 out of 36 men), homosexual males
are more likely to engage in sex with minors: in fact, they appear to be three times more likely
than straight men to engage in adult-child sexual relations (8). And this does not take into
account the cases of homosexual child abuse which are unreported. NARTH's Executive Director
Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, for example, says that about one third of his 400 adult homosexual clients
said they had experienced some form of homosexual abuse before the age of consent, but only
two of those cases had been reported.
While no more than 2% of male adults are homosexual, some studies indicate that approximately
35% of pedophiles are homosexual (9). Further, since homosexual pedophiles victimize far more
children than do heterosexual pedophiles (10), it is estimated that approximately 80% of
pedophilic victims are boys who have been molested by adult males (11).
Homosexual Men Were Often Childhood Victims
Dr. Nicolosi says that many of his clients' childhood sexual contacts occurred with a trusted older
person, and were perceived at the time of the abuse as loving. Other sexual-reorientation
therapists report similar high rates of molestation among their clients (12, 13).
Tragically, the abused child is then more likely to become an abuser in adulthood (14). Thus, it is
not surprising that we see more pedophilia among homosexual men: since they are more likely to
have been victims of abuse, they are also more likely to initiate a repetition of that abuse with a
same-sex child.
Which Child is Most Likely to Become a Victim?
Certain children are especially vulnerable to abuse - especially the boy who is predisposed to
homosexuality. The prehomosexual boy is very often lonely, alienated from his father, and
experiencing frustrating same-sex peer relationships. He quite naturally craves male attention,
affection and approval.
Often the same boy is also experiencing an overly intense and intimate relationship with his
mother, which makes normal masculine individuation difficult. An intimate relationship with a
man is one place of separation and individuation "where Mother cannot go" (15).
When this lonely boy receives flattering attention from an older male, then a link is established
between love and homoerotic sex. The boy comes to believe, "If I want love from men, I must
have sex with them." Thus the normal and natural developmental need of same-sex love and
approval has become eroticized. The boy may then develop a compulsive, promiscuous sexual
habit pattern, which in gay life is seen fairly frequently.
Many Gay Biographies Tell the Story
In his life story, Breaking the Surface, Olympic diver Greg Louganis tells the poignant tale of his
own experience with adult-child sex. He was an unusually sensitive boy, with an intense
closeness with his mother, and a distant, fearful relationship with his father. Lonely and starving
for male affection, he was molested by an older man he encountered on the beach. In his childish
neediness, Louganis - like many victims of man-boy molestation - perceived that relationship as
loving.
Who is Likely to be an Abuser?
Psychoanalysis recognizes the child abuser as typically an immature man who wants to "give
love" to a boy. He makes a narcissistic identification with the child, seeing him as an idealized
version of himself, and perceives himself as giving the same love which he wishes he had
received from his own father. Thus the pedophile cannot understand that he is inflicting
emotional damage.
Gay Fiction Presents Pedophilic Relationships Positively
Popular gay and lesbian fiction often portrays adult-child sexual relationships as fondly
remembered, tender "coming-of-age" stories. Much of this fiction is pornographic - aimed
specifically at teenagers - and is recommended to them on reading lists distributed by
gay-advocacy groups such as P-FLAG (Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays) (16), or
offered to them in public-school libraries (17).
What is the Harm of Childhood Seduction?
Dutch psychologist Gerard van den Aardweg points out that "non-coerced" sex is a misnomer
because there is always an element of coercion - involving a misuse of adult authority, and a
misuse of the child's need for affection. If a researcher sees no harm, "it may be because he is
using the wrong glasses not because there is nothing to see." Even adult-child sex which is
mutually enjoyed, he says, is always an intrinsic injustice to the integrity of the person (18).
Dr. David Finkelhor, a leading U.S. researcher in the field of child sexual abuse, similarly
disputes the conclusions of pedophile advocates.
He describes some of the consequences of seduction: confusion about sexual identity and sexual
norms; inability to differentiate sex from love; confusion between care-getting and care-giving,
with lowered respect for adult authority; guilt, shame, anxiety, lowered self-esteem, depression,
vulnerability to drug and alcohol abuse, and impaired ability to judge the trustworthiness of
others. We also see an age-inapropriate sexual knowledge, and sex acts sometimes reenacted
with other children (19).
Victims of sex abuse also appear to be at higher risk for suicide (20), and may repeat the sexual
abuse in adulthood, in order to gain a feeling of psychological mastery over the experience (21).
Children who experience prolonged abuse are more likely to view the abuse as positive or
neutral, suggesting that as the molestation continues, children eventually identify the molester
(22).
If the abuse was homosexual, the boy is likely to question his sexual orientation; if the abuser
was a male and the child a girl, she may defensively turn to lesbianism (23).
But even if pedophile advocates proved to be right that children don't often suffer psychological
damage in adulthood (and Dr. Finkelhor believes they're wrong), the impact of pedophilia must
not be judged simply on the basis of empirical findings.
"Ultimately," says Dr. Finkelhor, "I do continue to believe that the prohibition on adult-child
sexual contact is primarily a moral issue. While empirical findings have some relevance, they are
not [to be] the final arbiter."
Some slaves, he says, experienced slavery as good; likewise, many child sweatshop workers said
their work was beneficial. Despite this, we know better than to conclude that either slavery or
child labor are ultimately good, he argues.
Similarly, research reveals that the birth of children is correlated with a drop in marital
satisfaction for several years. Yet in spite of that empirical evidence, we do not declare
childrearing to be "bad for marriage." We know that psychological distress, or the lack of it, only
gives us a partial understanding of any particular life issue.
Dr. Finkelhor concludes: "Some types of social relationships violate deeply held values and
principles in our culture about equality and self-determination. Sex between children and adults
is one of them. Evidence that some children have positive experiences does not challenge these
values" (24).

TRAITORS AND INFILTRATORS ARE VALUED "ASSETS" IN WAR
The struggle for morality in life is a war - a constant war against those who desire to lead
immoral lives. If an immoral person can gain supporters of his position, he thinks he obtains
vindication of his sin. This line of "reasoning" is obviously flawed, for God sets moral standards
and no number of proponents of an immorality can change an immorality into something moral.
But "still they try."
It is also true that one who gains supporters or even tolerators of his immorality, increases the
population of potential co-participants in the "favored" immoral conduct.
Most governments do not allow discrimination against "the proponents of sin" who seek to enter
various professions. Because the Church is not subject to government rule, the separation of the
government from meddling in the affairs of the Church must be most strongly maintained, for the
Church is the only entity which has the right to discriminate against "the proponents of sin".
The human administrators of the Church have often failed to properly exercise this right to
discriminate, with devastating effect on all members of the Church, and those without the
Church. Most important, any discrimination must be in accordance with The Way - wherein the
sinner is Loved (not "sexed" but Loved), and the sin, hated and destroyed.

17. Jesus Teaches His Disciples to Pray
ONE day when Jesus had been praying one of His disciples came to Him, saying: "Lord, teach us
to pray ? "
2. And Jesus said to them: "When you pray, say: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy
name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our
daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead
us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil."
3. He then said to His disciples: "Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek and you shall find,
knock, and it shall be opened to you. For every one who asks, receives; and who seeks, finds; and
to him who knocks, it shall be opened."
QUESTIONS
1. What did one of the disciples one day say to Jesus?
2. Say the Our Father.
3. What else did Jesus say about prayer?
18. Jesus Tells the Parable of Dives and Lazarus
THERE were also misers among the people that listened to Jesus. He said to them: "There was a certain rich man named Dives. He was clothed in purple and fine linen, and feasted sumptuously every day. And there was a certain poor man, called Lazarus. He lay at the gate of the rich man and was covered with sores. He would have liked to satisfy his hunger with the crumbs that fell from the table of the rich man; but none gave them to him. But the
dogs came and licked his sores."
2. "Now it came to pass, that the beggar died, and he was carried by the angels into the bosom of
Abraham. The rich man also died, and he was buried in hell. And lifting up his eyes, when he
was in torments, he saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom."
3. "Then he cried: 'Father Abraham, have pity on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of
his finger in water, to cool my tongue, for I am tormented in this flame."'
4. "Abraham said to him: 'Remember that thou didst receive good things in thy lifetime, and
Lazarus, on the contrary, evil things. But now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And
besides all this, between us and you there is fixed a great chaos, so that no one can pass from
hence to you."'
QUESTIONS
1. Tell the parable of Dives and Lazarus.
2. What happened to Lazarus after death, and what to Dives?
3. What did Dives ask of Abraham?
4. What did Abraham answer?
Catechism
Q. 241. Could man's body be developed from the body of an inferior animal?
A. Man's body could be developed from the body of an inferior animal if God so willed; but
science does not prove that man's body was thus formed, while revelation teaches that it was
formed directly by God from the clay of the earth. If God reveals to us that He did develop
man's body from an inferior animal, it will always be that it was done under God's direction.
Q. 242. Could man's soul and intelligence be formed by the development of animal life and instinct?
A. Man's soul could not be formed by the development of animal instinct; for, being entirely
spiritual, it must be created by God, and it is united to the body as soon as the body is prepared to
receive it.
Q. 243. Did God give any command to Adam and Eve?
A. To try their obedience, God commanded Adam and Eve not to eat of a certain fruit which
grew in the garden of Paradise.
Q. 244. What was the Garden of Paradise?
A. The Garden of Paradise was a large and beautiful place prepared for man's habitation upon
earth. It was supplied with every species of plant and animal and with everything that could
contribute to man's happiness.
Q. 245. Where was the Garden of Paradise situated?
A. The exact place in which the Garden of Paradise -- called also the Garden of Eden -- was situated is not known, for the deluge may have so changed the surface of the earth that old landmarks were wiped out. It was probably some place in Asia, not far from the river Euphrates.
Q. 246. What was the tree bearing the forbidden fruit called?
A. The tree bearing the forbidden fruit was called "the tree of knowledge of good and evil."
Q. 247. Do we know the name of any other tree in the garden?
A. We know the name of another tree in the Garden called the "tree of life." Its fruit kept the
bodies of our first parents in a state of perfect health.
Q. 248. Which were the chief blessings intended for Adam and Eve had they remained faithful to God?
A. The chief blessings intended for Adam and Eve, had they remained faithful to God, were a
constant state of happiness in this life and everlasting glory in the next.
Q. 249. Did Adam and Eve remain faithful to God?
A. Adam and Eve did not remain faithful to God, but broke His command by eating the
forbidden fruit.
Q. 250. Who was the first to disobey God?
A. Eve was the first to disobey God, and she induced Adam to do likewise.
Q. 251. How was Eve tempted to sin?
A. Eve was tempted to sin by the devil, who came in the form of a serpent and persuaded her to
break God's command.
Q. 252. Which were the chief causes that led Eve into sin?
A. The chief causes that led Eve into sin were:
1. She went into the danger of sinning by admiring what was forbidden, instead of avoiding it.
2. She did not fly from the temptation at once, but debated about yielding to it.
Similar conduct on our part will lead us also into sin.
Q. 253. What befell Adam and Eve on account of their sin?
A. Adam and Eve, on account of their sin, lost innocence and holiness, and were doomed to
sickness and death.
Q. 254. What other evils befell Adam and Eve on account of their sin?
A. Many other evils befell Adam and Eve on account of their sin. They were driven out of
Paradise and condemned to toil. God also ordained that henceforth the earth should yield no
crops without cultivation, and that the beasts, man's former friends, should become his savage
enemies.

TAKE OVER THE SCHOOLS AND YOU CAN TEACH AND GET PEOPLE TO
BELIEVE ANYTHING
Cornell's and other University's Promotion of Weird Courses
Including
pro-pedophilia academics and activists
From Accuracy In Academia, article by Michael Capel © 1998
Students at Cornell University are used to courses like "Spike Lee Films," "Concepts of Race and
Racism," "Whose Families? Whose Values?," "Domestic Television," "Music and Queer
Identity," and "Introduction to Sexual Minorities."
Indeed, as Campus Report has chronicled, even the most cursory perusal of the Ithaca, New York
school's course catalog reveals a burgeoning curriculum of frivolous, politically-charged, and
downright bizarre classes. The university's administration, engaged in an indefatigable crusade
for "diversity," has given free reign to the faculty to incorporate its every radical whim and every
extreme agenda into the classroom. The results have been striking. There are courses at Cornell
that artfully breach every imaginable -- and many unimaginable -- standard of most students.
One recent offering, however, has crossed the threshold from the merely absurd to the potentially
dangerous.
The syllabus for "The Sexual Child" reads like a veritable who's-who of pro-pedophilia
academics and activists. Among the authors presented in the course are Theo Sandfort, formerly
on the board of directors of Paidika, a pro-pedophilia magazine based in Amsterdam; Daniel
Tsang, the author of AIDS Taboo, purports to deliver an "academic" analysis of pedophilia; Pat
Califia, a self-proclaimed "sexual outlaw" and author of the essay "The Age of Consent: The
Great Kiddy-Porn Panic of '77" and the book Macho Sluts; and Havelock Ellis, author of "The
School Friendships of Girls" and a reputed eugenicist.
Other materials in the course include the pro-pedophilia book Child-Loving, the essay "The
Hysteria of Child Pornography and Pedophilia," For a Lost Soldier, a German film about the
relationship between a twelve-year-old boy and a Dutch soldier, and Sally Mann's photographs of
naked children. Students are enlightened with such lectures as "The Child as Sexual Object and
Sexual Subject," "Big Bad Wolves," "Loving Children," and "Having Children" (for which one
of the readings is Nabakov's Lolita).
English Professor Ellis Hanson, the course instructor, defends the course's content. "The erotic
fascination with children is ubiquitous," he tells Campus Report. "One could hardly read a
newspaper or turn on a television without feeling obliged to accept, study, and celebrate it." The
course is designed, in his view, to "undermine preconceived notions about what a child is, what
sexuality is, and what it means to love or desire a child." He says that the course is balanced in all
areas of its treatment of the subject, with the goal of "seek[ing] to complicate our understanding
of child sexuality and our rather limited strategies for interpreting it."
One of the best known readings in the course is Gayle Rubin's "Thinking Sex." This article
advances a pro-pedophile agenda within academia by appealing to the familiar catch-phrases of
identity politics. "[T]hose whose eroticism transgresses generational boundaries," the feminist
anthropologist writes, are not to be judged or condemned. Rather, these "different sexual
cultures" are to be celebrated as "unique expressions of human inventiveness."
Her stated goal is to construct a "radical theory of sex" that "must identify, describe, explain, and
denounce erotic injustice and sexual oppression" that so victimizes "the community of men who
love underaged youth."
"Contemporary sexual politics," she writes, "should be reconceptualized in terms of the emergent
ongoing development of this system, its social relations, the ideologies which interpret it, and its
characteristic modes of conflict."
Prof. Hanson, however, disputes any suggestion that the course is an effort in propaganda. The
course attempts to "interrogate received opinions, not reassert them. . . The course does not
'adopt' arguments," he says. He also asserts, "Every writer in the course is opposed to sexual
exploitation in all its forms." Rubin declines to define "sexual exploitation." She professes that
"cross-generational encounters" can involve "affection, love, free choice, kindness, or
transcendence," and does not address the criticism of pedophilia that it is by definition sexual
exploitation.
She also adopts and extends to pedophiles the view of the radical feminist and homosexual
movements that gender and sexual practices are merely "constituted in society and history, not
biologically ordained." Hence, pedophiles are merely misunderstood and oppressed by society.
She complains that "boy-lovers are so stigmatized that it is difficult to find defenders for their
civil liberties, let alone erotic orientation."
Like much of today's multiculturalist canon, the piece is imbued with neo-Marxist undertones.
From the premise that "sex is always political," Rubin sees the last sexual mores that remain in
Western Civilization as serving only to perpetuate a corrupt cultural system "in which the state,
the institutions of medicine, and the popular media have mobilized to attack and oppress all
whose sexual tastes differ from those allowed by the currently dominative model of sexual
correctness."
Sexuality "is organized into systems of power," according to Rubin. These "reward and
encourage some individuals and activities, while punishing and suppressing others. Like the
capitalist organization of labor and its distribution of rewards and powers, the modern sexual
system has been the object of political struggle since it emerged and as it has evolved."
The result is that "sex shapes institutions," and so societal conflicts about sex mirror the other
social struggles of the day: "The modern sexual system contains sets of these sexual populations
[i.e., homosexuals, transsexuals, pedophiles, and other sexual deviants], stratified by the
operation of an ideological and social hierarchy . . . the [sex] law buttresses structures of power,
codes of behavior, and forms of prejudice. At worst, sex law and sex regulation are sexual
apartheid."
She concludes that "sex is taken all too seriously" in our culture and that laws outlawing
pedophilia represent "erotic hysteria" and are ultimately "foolish, unjust, and tyrannical."

SEXUAL ASSAULT ON HUMANITY, AS WELL AS ON MORALITY

THE AMERICAN Psychological Association's Psychological Bulletin released a study of 59
other studies last year that concluded that college students who had been sexually abused as kids
were ``slightly less well adjusted'' than other college kids. Authors Bruce Rind, Phillip
Tromovitch and Robert Bauserman urged psychologists not to assume that sex between
nonrelated adults and minors is abusive, as children often deem the zexperience to be positive.
``In short,'' they wrote, ``the self-reported effects data do not support the assumption of
wide-scale psychological harm from CSA (child sexual abuse).''
The authors want to dump the term "child sexual abuse'' when children consent to sex with
adults. Better, the three argue, to call such relations "adult-adolescent sex.'' Or when the ``willing
encounter with positive reactions'' involves a 9-year-old and an adult, call it "simply adult-child
sex, a value neutral term.''
Last week radio talk show host Laura Schlessinger -- a.k.a. Dr. Laura -- began a crusade against
the piece and the APA for printing it. She fears the piece is part of a concerted effort to get the
APA to remove pedophilia from its list of mental disorders.
APA spokeswoman Rhea Farberman thinks that it is valid to criticize the piece. She reiterated the
APA position that pedophilia is "a mental disorder, extremely harmful to children, is illegal and
should stay illegal.''
Farberman criticized Schlessinger, however, for making a big issue of the piece. Maybe that's
because the APA showed appalling judgment in printing this pedophilia propaganda.
Schlessinger attacks the study's methodology. It would be the equivalent of asking women who
had been raped 10 years ago how they feel today. Then, if most say they are fine, concluding that
rape is ``not harmful, in fact it might be beneficial.'' Thus the authors culled through their data on
college students, then said do away with the abuse term because 37 percent of males viewed their
childhood sexual experiences as positive and that males viewed their childhood sexual
experiences with adults more positively than females.
No surprise, the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) has posted the "good
news'' about the study on its Web page. "On average, nearly 70 percent of males in the studies
reported that as children or adolescents their sexual experiences with adults had been positive or
neutral,'' it stated. And, "The current war on boy- lovers has no basis in science.''
It's as if all the research about the trauma caused by adults having sex with children, all the
testimony, all the tears, all the rage, never existed. Most boys liked it, or didn't mind it, which is
the same to the three researchers. Some girls -- probably those they refer to as "mature'' -- liked it,
too.
Heterosexual pedophiles have been making the same argument for years. The little girls liked it.
The little girls wanted it.
You expect that sort of cynical excuse from a cruel pervert, but you don't expect to read it in an
APA journal.
The authors had argued that their mission was to differentiate between what childhood sexual
experiences with adults are most harmful -- that it is important to contrast between "the repeated
rape of a 5-year-old girl by her father and the willing sexual involvement of a mature 15-year-old
adolescent boy with an unrelated adult.'' Yet, they don't differentiate between boys' reactions to
sex with a man and sex with a woman.
"Doesn't that make you suspicious that they have an agenda?'' Schlessinger asked.
As a matter of fact, it does.
Of course, what really makes me suspicious is any psychologist who thinks that a 9-year-old can
consent to sex.
We urge you to re-read (read) the article on page 1 of this issue, regarding Al Gore's lies about
his position on amending a federal civil rights bill so that the term "person" would "include
unborn children from the moment of conception. The APA has attempted to rewrite its own
history in a similar manner. the difference between the to is, Gore's initial position was moral
but he struggles to turn it into the immoral position, while the APA's position was immoral, and
it tries to remake it into a moral position. Evil is just that, Evil. - Ed.

Mental Health Leaders Suggest Flawed Research May Promote Pedophilia
From the Dr. Laura web site
May 24, 1999
The Leadership Council for Mental Health, Justice, and the Media, a nonprofit organization
(status pending) whose membership includes many of the nation's most prominent mental health
leaders, is concerned that a recent study may be used to normalize pedophilia. "A recent study
published in the American Psychological Association's Psychological Bulletin has the potential
of being used by pedophile advocates to promote decriminalization of adult-child sexual
contact." says Paul Fink, M.D., former president of the American Psychiatric Association and
current president of the Leadership Council.
The study, titled "A Meta-Analytic Examination of Assumed Properties of Child Sexual Abuse
Using College Samples," suggests that mental health researchers have overstated the harmful
potential of child sexual abuse. The study's authors, Bruce Rind, Philip Tromovitch, and Robert
Bauserman, conclude that behavior which professionals commonly term "child sexual abuse"
may merely constitute a violation of social norms and should be considered "abuse" only if the
child reacts negatively to the encounter.
In accordance with its mission to insure the public receives accurate information about mental
health issues, the Leadership Council examined the study and uncovered serious flaws which call
many of the study's principle findings into question. For example, the researchers conclude that
youthful sexual experiences with adults may not be harmful because subjects generally did not
report long-lasting negative effects.
However, the authors fail to inform readers that these findings are largely based on a single
investigation conducted over 40 years ago with limited relevance to the serious forms of child
sexual abuse commonly seen today. The majority of the experiences reported by males were
homosexual advances during adolescence and more than half of females reported exposure to an
exhibitionist. Most of the subjects successful rebuffed the advance and immediately left the area.
Not surprisingly, few felt they suffered long-term emotional damage from the incident.
The authors improperly generalize these findings to all types of child sexual abuse stating:
"These data imply that, in the college population ... lasting negative effects are not prevalent, and
when negative effects occur, they are often temporary."
Dr. Paul Fink notes: "It is as if a study that purports to examine the effects of being shot in the
head contained a majority of cases in which the marksman missed. Such research might
demonstrate that being shot in the head generally has no serious or lasting effects."
In response to serious questions regarding its publication of this study, the American
Psychological Association (APA) reiterated its stand that "the sexual abuse of children is wrong
and harmful to its victims" and noted that publication of research in its journals "in no way"
constitutes endorsement of the findings. The APA also released a statement from the study's
authors who defended their findings and claimed, as researchers, they have "an ethical duty" to
report them.
Dr. Fink points out that according to section 6.06 of the APA ethical principles, researchers also
have the ethical duty to perform and report research in accordance with recognized standards of
scientific competence and to minimize the possibility that results will be misleading. "The
appearance of this paper in a leading scientific journal is unfortunate as it provides the findings
with an undeserved aura of credibility," says Dr. Fink.
The Leadership Council is composed of national leaders in psychology, psychiatry, law, and
journalism who are committed to promoting the ethical application of psychological science to
human welfare.

STATEMENT OF ARCHBISHOP DEMETIROS ON BEHALF OF THE GREEK ORTHODOX ARCHDIOCESE
OF AMERICA
>
New York, NY - His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios, Primate of the Greek Orthodox Church in America, who was returning by car from Boston to New York City when he learned the horrible news of the terrorist attacks on New York's World Trade Center and the Pentagon in Washington, DC, responded with the following statement:
"This is a tragedy of tremendous proportions with unforeseeable consequences for the entire world. The terrorist acts that took place today incite the justified indignation of all people who value human life, freedom and justice. In this difficult time I express, along with the entire Greek Orthodox Church, our deep sorrow and strong support to the families who were hurt by this unprecedented tragedy.
We fervently pray to God, the Lord of peace, love and justice, to grant to the families of the innocent victims and to the entire American Nation abundant solace and unlimited strength."
Archbishop Demetrios directed all Greek Orthodox churches throughout the country to open during this day of national crisis and directed the clergy to lead the faithful in prayer for divine protection against "the sword and enemy invasion", and for the repose of the souls of those who lost their lives in these attacks. The Archbishop furthermore encouraged those whose health permits to donate blood for the wounded survivors.
In the Archbishop's absence, the Very Reverend Savas Zembillas, Chancellor of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese, led the Archdiocesan staff in prayer during a memorial service in the Chapel of Saint Paul. At the conclusion of the service, Father Savas urged those present to "pray without ceasing" for the victims, the survivors, the families who had lost loved ones, and for the safety of our nation during this time of unspeakable tragedy.

JOINT STATEMENT OF THE SSB AND OCCA PRAYER, ASSISTANCE, AND INSTRUCTION
IN THE TIME OF
THE GREAT EVIL OF
11 SEPTEMBER 2001 A.D.
~
METROPOLITAN
ARCHBISHOP
PAUL, S.S.B.
THE ORTHODOX CATHOLIC CHURCH OF THE AMERICAS
~
Tuesday, September 11, 2001 A.D., was not a day of tragedy. It was a day on which a
Great Evil of the most horrible purity was committed by the forces of Evil, when Evil
openly declared war on mankind as it turned air liners into human guided missiles,
murdering thousands of people in New York City, Washington D.C., and Pennsylvania.
We must first pray for those who have been murdered, those injured, their families and
friends, and those most heroic who put their lives at risk to save the injured, and those who
gave their lives in that Godlike effort.
To that purpose The Church authorized the special Divine Liturgy for the Dead be prayed
the Sunday of 16 September, in place of the Divine Liturgy of that Sunday after Pentecost,
for the victims, survivors, families and friends, and yes, the perpetrators, of that Great
Evil, and continues them in our prayers.
This was the first shot fired in this war.
All are encouraged to pray that the Declaration of War which has thus been made against
the United States of America and all of the World, will be met with a firm and terrible
resolve guided by an even more pure holiness, and not by unholy anger or revenge.
A terrible resolve can be a holy resolve, but revenge can never by holy. America must
avoid revenge, otherwise it will become as evil as those who have just attacked her. The
tools used in this war against evil must not be the tools of terrorism, for as we have seen,
terrorism gives birth to great injustice and great harm of the innocent. Terrorism is a tool
of evil, not of holiness.
Those who committed these evils do not represent Islam and do not represent the Arab
peoples. But even if they did, Americans must not attack Arabs in America and abroad,
and must not attack Moslems in America and abroad, just because they are Arab or
Moslem. To so do would be to engage in an even greater evil than that which has been
visited upon America and the World. The lessons which America learned in its unjust and
unholy treatment of Japanese during World War II, and which it is learning in its struggles
for racial justice, must not be forgotten. Just as the persons who were murdered while
doing mundane office work or flying to meet family, can not be brought back, so too will it
be impossible to correct any injustice and harm done to the innocent of the Arab people
and the innocent of the Moslem religion.
There are some who take a form of joy in the attacks, thinking, "now Americans know
what it is like to live with terrorism." Such jealousy and expressions of jealousy will bring
no reward of union with God.
America itself must not allow this opportunity for holiness to pass.
Yes, there is great opportunity for holiness in this time of Great Evil. For decades much of
America has turned away from God. This is a time to turn to God, to pray to Him, to beg
His assistance in holy thought, action, and deed.
Which person has the better perspective on the ultimate reality: The one who, as horrible
death approaches and overtakes, says, thinks, and feels, "Oh Hell", or the one who says,
thinks, and feels, "God help me"?
Yet, even though many of its people have turned away from God, many other Americans
have remained with God. The hero and heroine passengers and crew on the flight which
crashed in Pennsylvania, fought the evil enemy servants of Satan who had taken control of
their air liner, and caused the airplane to crash miles away from where it could harm
anyone else. These brave men and women of God sacrificed themselves so that thousands
of others would live, so that thousands of others would have the opportunity to grow in
God.
The common enemy in this first manifestation during the Twenty-First Century, of the
eternal war, is Satan and his followers. The common enemy is no different than the
common enemy during World War II. In world War II the human leaders of Satan's
forces were Adolph Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mussilini, and the Japanese Emperor. They lead
their nations into moral error, and some of their peoples went willingly into their moral
error. Today, the enemy is the same. Only the human leaders of Satan's forces have
changed. These human leaders of Satan's forces have today, again lead some of their
people willingly into moral error. But Satan will not prevail unless America also falls into
the trap of giving evil for evil.
America must be filled with the terrible resolve, and must use every, yes every, instrument
and asset which it possesses, to fight and overcome those who would enslave it. Holiness
does not necessarily preclude the terrible resolve, but the terrible resolve must not be any
more terrible than is necessary.
Who would dare say that our fathers and mothers who saved the world from the Nazi,
Fascist, Tojo, the Axis, were wrong? No one. But just as America eliminated the evil
people who lead Germany, Italy, and Japan, and for a while even Russia, into the pursuit
of evil - and then rehabilitated these peoples; so too must America be ready to completely
annihilate the evil of today, and then to rehabilitate those who followed the evil ways.
What do you tell your children of these days? The truth. You tell them that many evil men
and women decided to hurt Americans and the rest of the world. When your children ask
why, tell them the only answer possible - that these evil people did these evil things because
they are evil, and evil people do evil things; evil people do not do good things unless it is to
promote something evil. Tell them that these evil people hijacked airplanes, stole airplanes
with hundreds of people on the airplanes, and crashed the airplanes into buildings killing
thousands of people in the buildings and on the airplanes, because they are evil. The
people in the buildings and the passengers and crews of the airplanes were not evil, the
hijackers were evil.
Tell your children you can not tell if a person is evil by what they look like, or what kind of
clothing they wear, or what their religion is. You can only tell if a person is evil by whether
or not they do evil things. Tell them that sometimes good people do bad things, but that
does not make them evil, just mistaken; but that evil people hurt other people on purpose,
and do not care and usually are happy that they have hurt other people.
And this is why America must be careful as it wages the Twenty-First Century War
Against Satan. For if Americans take pleasure in the destruction of the enemy and his
minions, then such Americans will be just as evil as those against whom they fight.
For America and the World to succeed in this war against Evil, America must return to the
moral values which created it and which made it strong.
If those who believe man can solve his own problems without God's assistance and
guidance, had been influential during World War II, we would either be still fighting that
War, or, more likely, we would not even be speaking German or Japanese - we would not
be here - we would not have been born.
Thus it is that this terrible Evil which has so adversely effected and destroyed so many
thousands of lives, can actually be a great opportunity for building an even greater
America, and an even greater World. An America and a World of moral values, not ethics
or family values dreamed up by immoral people, but moral values as acknowledged by so
many billions of people in the caring religions of tradition. Those religions which follow
and proclaim the moral standards declared and established by God.
In the past, Satan used pride, greed, and envy to obtain followers who would wage war
against mankind. Now he has added hatred and despair.
In the process of this War, America and the World must eliminate the minions of Evil, and
the factors which allow people to be recruited to Evil. This can not be done by seeking just
justice. This can only be done by turning to God - to God unadulterated by human desires
and interpretation.
We have seen that people of all faiths follow the same main tenants decreed by God. These
tenants are universal and transcend all faiths, all beliefs. It is only the false religions, those
which are religions of Satan, which allow and foster indiscriminate and wanton murder
and destruction. No, all religions are not equal, and since God is one, there can be but one
true religion. But those religions which fall somewhat short of the complete truth of God do
attempt to fulfill the complete truth of God. It is the religion of Satan which opposes the
complete truth of God.
Thus it is that all true religions, whether Christian, Hebrew, Islam, Hindu, Buddhist,
Naturists, and, yes, even the multitude of Pagan religions, are founded in the same
universal truths by which mankind is morally governed in its internal relationships and its
relationships with the remainder of creation. And this truth will remain.
The foundation of mankind is God.
We can only succeed in our war against evil if that war rests on the foundation of God. If
we succumb to unholy passions and wantonly attack, then we will have moved from the
foundation of God to the foundation composed of the quicksands of Satanic Evil. If we fear
to attack, then we will have stepped from the foundation of God and suffocated in the
quicksands of self-interest fear which is Evil. If some complain about the very minor
inconveniences they experienced on the day of the attack, they have neither the fortitude to
endure this war, nor are they deserving of the delights and fruits which will be harvested in
winning this war against Satan.
We have already seen the great good which is intrinsic in mankind, in the holy responses to
this act of aggression against the very existence of mankind. Those who fought the
warriors of Satan and caused their craft to crash rather than allow it to be used to kill
thousands more in Washington, are in the bosom of Abraham. Our friends in England
played the American National Anthem at the changing of the guard before their Queen,
displaying for the world their God based union with America. Father Michael and his
brothers and sisters in the New York Fire and Police Departments, and ordinary citizens of
a multitude of countries at the site of the New York attack, offered their lives to save the
lives and souls of those trapped and killed in the World Trade Towers, offering the greatest
gift which one can make. Yassar Arafat gave blood for the survivors of the attack, both to
assist and as an outward expression of his horror and grief. Palestinians who initially
rejoiced over the attack became somber and thoughtful as they realized the magnitude of
this initial attack of the 21st Century and its grave meanings, significances, consequences,
and horror. People of New Orleans, a city which wealth has by-passed, collected over three
hundred thousand dollars in less than an evening, to donate to the needs of those who have
been harmed in the attack. And so has the world responded.
And where is Satan's present day human general, Osama bin Laden? Is he in the
forefront leading his troops? No! Like Satan he is in hiding, fearing the just retribution in the Anger of God.
Though as we write, Osama bin Laden has not been proven to be the one who ordered this
attack, all must decide whether each will be a cowardly follower of Satan, or emulate the
example of those firemen who raised the American flag overcoming the midst of
destruction. We must not cower in hell. We must raise the flag of Christ, the Holy Cross,
in war against Satan.
If we engage this war without prayer, this may be the last shot fired in this war.

What is the "Gay" Agenda, in the well planned attack on humanity through sexual perversion?
REPORT ON AB 101 AND THE GAY AGENDA IN OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS
BY California State Assemblyman
Steve Baldwin
"In any campaign to win over the public, gays must be portrayed as victims in need of protection
so that straights will be inclined by reflex to adopt the role of protector... the purpose of victim
imagery is to make straights feel very uncomfortable; that is, to jam with shame the
self-righteous pride that would ordinarily accompany and reward their antigay belligerence, and
to lay the groundwork for the process of conversion by helping straights identify with gays and
sympathize with their underdog status."
Homosexual authors Marshall Kirk & Hunter Madsen in "After the Ball: How America will
Conquer its Fear and Hatred of Gays in the 1990s"
"Starting from Kindergarten, again and working its way all the way through high school. This
idea of talking about it one time in high school, well we know that doesn't work. We need to start
tackling this at the very early ages. This is war ... As far as I'm concerned, there's no room for
conscientious objectors. We've got to be involved in this war."
Dr. Virgina Uribe, Founder of "Project 10,11 a Los Angeles Unified pro-homosexual counseling
program
What AB 101 would actually do to our schools:
1) AB 101 would prohibit "discrimination" in the recruitment, hiring and promotion of teachers,
faculty, and school staff based on "sexual orientation". In essence, homosexual quotas will be
unofficially pursued by school administrators out of fear of lawsuits by the homosexual
community. While the bill is vague on whether actual quotas will be required, It is almost certain
that pro-gay attorneys will use AB 101 to argue minority status for homosexuals, thereby
requiring schools to adopt and implement plans for increasing the percentage of homosexual
employees.
2) The defining word throughout AB 101 is "sexual orientation." However, case law (Beaty v.
Truck Insurance Exchange) defines sexual orientation as referring," to a person's sexual habits,
practices, predilection or compulsions with respect to heterosexuality, homosexuality, etc." This
definition of sexual orientation opens the door to litigation by those who practice other sexual
habits such as bestiality, sado-masochism, etc., all claiming to have special rights under this
broad definition of sexual orientation.
3) AB 101 would prohibit discrimination in financial aid and specifically mentions the Cal-Grant
program. This will clearly lead to quotas in the awarding of financial aid, again simply to avoid
litigation.
4) AB 101 would prohibit discrimination in curriculum. The practical effect of this is that school
districts will have to adopt textbooks that place the gay lifestyle on the same moral level as the
heterosexual lifestyle. All mention of families in any textbooks, video, or handouts will have to
include mention of gay families. Anything less would invite lawsuits.
5) AB 101 will infringe upon the first amendment rights of free speech and religion. For
example, if a Christian public school teacher happens to state his opinion that he believes in the
Biblical view of homosexuality as sinful behavior, the teacher could lose his job and be charged
with violating the law -- even at the University level!
6) AB 101 will prohibit campus religious groups from prohibiting homosexuals from joining
their group, thus leading to a scenario in which gays could take over a campus fundamentalist
group. Any campus religious group that teach the Biblical view of homosexuality could lose their
charter under AB 101.
7) AB 101 states that no "interscholastic athletic association, of which any public school is a
member, shall discriminate against, or deny the benefits of any program to, any person on the
basis of ... sexual orientation ..." This will be interpreted by liberal judges to justify the banning
of all sports competition with private religious schools that teach that homosexuality is wrong or
refuse to hire homosexuals. Bear in mind that many public school athletic leagues include private
religious schools.
8) AB 101 prohibits a school from sponsoring "any activity that reflects adversely upon persons
because of their ... sexual orientation." This language will likely be interpreted by the courts to
prohibit the use of school facilities by churches (hundreds of churches rent school facilities) who
are opposed to homosexuality. The Boy Scouts, due to their stance against hiring homosexual
Scout leaders, could also be prohibited from meeting on school campuses.
9) AB 101 would nullify several existing sex education codes, since the bill states that
instructional materials may not "contain any matter reflecting adversely upon persons because of
their .... sexual orientation." This passage will nullify Section 51551 of the Education Code,
Section 2(b)(6)which states that "course material shall teach honor and respect for monogamous
heterosexual marriage." All sex education courses would have to describe the homosexual sex
act or be accused of discrimination.
10) Many AIDS education courses today refer to certain homosexual acts as dangerous and
unhealthy. Since AB 101 prohibits anything that portrays homosexuality "adversely," all such
cautionary language will have to be removed.
11) AD 101 will infringe on the rights of parents to control the values taught to their children in
public schools. The courts have repeatedly ruled that parents have this right (Hodgson v.
Minnesota, Pierce v. Society of Sisters, etc), but under AD 101, young school children will now
be exposed to constant positive portrayals of a lifestyle that is opposed by the vast majority of
parents on moral grounds.
Myth:
Gay youth are much more likely to commit suicide than heterosexual youth and therefore need
extra protection.
Reality:
This myth is traced to a report that, according to material distributed by Ms. Kuehl's activists,
was published by the U.S. Dept of Health and Human Services in 1989.
However, like so much of the material distributed by the gay community, it has no basis in
reality. The report in question, by gay activist Paul Gibson, was simply an addendum to a official
report on youth suicide released by HHS and was later dropped from the report altogether.
Nationally, Gibson's report was repudiated by HHS Secretary Dr. Louis Sullivan, who publicly
distanced his department from it due to the fact it was full of factual errors, distortions, and,
according to Dr. David Shafer, a leading authority on youth suicide, "was never subjected to the
rigorous peer review that is required for publication in a scientific journal ..."
Furthermore, even if research does some day show that gay youth have a higher suicide rate, this
is not an argument for special protection. Indeed some researchers believe that the aggressive
campaign to convince our youth that homosexuality is normal via our public schools, the media,
and the arts, has created a generation of youth confused about their sexual identity, thus
encouraging depression. If this is true, the solution to countering a rise in gay youth would be to
prohibit the promotion of the gay lifestyle within our public institutions such as schools.
Myth:
Ten percent of society is homosexual, including ten percent of all students.
Reality:
This figure is derived from sex researcher Alfred Kinsey, who based this number on a survey of
5,300 men which included mostly former or present prisoners, sex offenders, leaders of
homosexual groups, and male prostitutes.
For anyone to suggest this was a representative sample is ludicrous. There have been over 30
studies since the late 1940's Kinsey study that have found the average percentage of men who are
homosexual ranged from .5% to 2%. Women are about half that.
The most comprehensive study is the continuing study conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau
since 1988 for the National Center for Health Statistics of the Center for Disease Control. This
study confidentially asks around 10,000 subjects about their sexual preferences every three
months and the result has always averaged to be less than 2%. Even liberal Newsweek magazine
called the 10% myth "ideology, not sound science." (see attached)
Myth:
"Gay students are born that way, therefore all school policies, curriculum, events, etc. should
have to treat homosexuality as equal to heterosexuality."
Reality:
Despite highly publicize studies claiming that homosexuality is genetic, these studies have been
seriously discredited by some of the world's leading geneticists and research scientists. Dr.
William Byne and Bruce Parson, research psychiatrists at Columbia University, conducted a
review of all the "gay gene" studies and concluded: "Recent studies postulate biologic factors as
the primary basis for sexual orientation. However, there is no evidence at present to substantiate
a biologic theory, just as there is no compelling evidence to support any singular psychosocial
explanation."
The LeVay "gay gene" study, the Bailey/Pillard "twin" study, the Hamer "twin" study, all had
serious mythological flaws, left out key factors, or simply could not be replicated by other
scientists. Hamer, a gay activist, apparently falsified some of his information according to one of
his associates. Even pro-gay sex researchers Masters & Johnson and Alfred Kinsey both ridiculed
the idea of a gay gene. In the course of counseling thousands of gays these researchers saw
definite patterns in the lives of homosexuals, ranging from early traumatic experiences like
molestation to abusive or absent parental figures.
Furthermore, if being homosexual was unchangeable, why are so many homosexuals changing
back to heterosexuality after counseling? Ex-gays have established numerous groups, such as
Exodus, to help homosexuals leave the homosexual lifestyle and thousands have done so. Even
Masters & Johnson reported a 79.1 percent immediate success rate for their homosexual clients
and a 71.6 success rate after five years as reported in the American Journal of Psychiatry (Feb.
1984). The Kinsey Institute conducted a study in 1970 that found that 8101 of 684 gays and 93%
of 292 lesbians has changed or shifted either their sexual feelings or behaviors after age 12. 58%
of the gays and 77% of the lesbians reported a second shift in sexual orientation; 31% of the gays
and 49% of the lesbians reported a third shift; and 13% of the gays and 30% of the lesbians
reported even a fourth shift in sexual orientation. Unlike biological changes, the shifts in sexual
orientation began at age 18 or later for half of both gays and lesbians.
Sexual changes, five or more years after puberty, are exceptionally late and without biological
precedent in development. But changes in tastes (e.g. food or entertainment) often take place
around age 18.
Myth:
Homosexual students need special protection in our schools against intimidation, harassment,
and assault.
Reality:
Existing law already protects everyone from intimidation, harassment, and discriminatory
behavior against them because of, among other characteristics, their sexual orientation.
Specifically:
Civil Code 51.7 makes it illegal, as it pertains to civil law, to intimidate by threat of violence
against people because of their "sexual orientation." Such offenses are punishable in civil law
and persons can be held liable for actual damages, exemplary damages, and a civil penalty of
$25,000 to be awarded to the person denied the right provided by 51.7.
Penal Code 422.6 makes it a crime to force or use threat of force, willfully injure, interfere with,
oppress, or threaten any person because of, among other characteristics, their sexual orientation.
Further, it makes it a crime to deface, damage, or destroy real or personal property of any person
because of their sexual orientation. Offenders are punishable by imprisonment in county jail and
fines.
Penal Code 422.7 and 422.75 address more serious crimes including felonies to persons or a
person's real and personal property because of their sexual orientation. Offenders are punishable
by imprisonment in state prison and fines.
Education Code 33032.5 enables teachers and administrators to prevent and respond to acts of
hate violence occurring on their school campuses. Hate violence is defined to include acts against
persons because of their sexual orientation.
Education Code 48900.3 states that students in grades 4-12 may be suspended and expelled if the
pupil causes, or attempts to cause, or participates in an act of hate violence, which include acts
against persons because of their sexual orientation.
Given the fact that discriminatory behavior and acts targeted at persons due to sexual orientation
is addressed four separate times in our Civil, Penal and Education codes, it is clear that the
argument that gay students need legal protection is a straw man. The real agenda is to force
schools to advance the gay agenda.
Myth:
"The homosexual viewpoint is not represented in our public schools and therefore that is
evidence of discrimination."
Reality:
This is totally false. In fact, the gay movement is so entrenched in our public schools that most
people would be shocked. The homosexual point of view already inundates our public schools
through a variety of ways:
Gay teacher organizations Labor union promotion of homosexuality Teacher
workshops/in-service AIDS education curriculum Sex education curriculum County Dept. of
Education efforts District promotion of gay clubs, parades, proms, etc. Pro-homosexual school
counseling programs Alternative homosexual schools Pro-homosexual curriculum
Gay Teacher OrganizationsThere are dozens of homosexual teacher organizations within the
K-12 system today. They have chapters, conventions, and are networked heavily with the gay
movement in general. These groups have the support of the education establishment leadership.
One of the most active gay teacher groups is BANGLE, which held their annual West Coast
convention just a few months ago at James Logan High School in Union City. Hundreds of
homosexual teachers attended this convention which focused on how to promote homosexuality
within the K-12 schools including using films, curriculum, counseling programs, AIDS education
etc. Exhibition tables were present marketing books that promoted the gay lifestyle specifically
designed for young children.
The keynote speaker was Superintendent of Instruction Delaine Eastin, who repeated myths
about gay suicide and boasted about how California schools are doing "in-service training for
teachers on how to provide services to our gay and lesbian youth." Incredibly, Eastin also stated
that schools need to imitate San Francisco schools where students deemed to be confused are put
in touch with homosexual faculty for "counseling."
Eastin also bashed Sex Respect, one of the most effective abstinence-based sex education
programs in the state, even though state codes require all sex education programs to be
abstinence based (See attached for more on Easton's comments).
Other major California gay teacher organizations include the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Teachers
Network (GLSTN), Gay and Lesbian Educators of Southern California (GALE) Gay Teachers
and School Workers Coalition, the Homosexual Issues Committee of United Teachers of Los
Angeles and of course the Gay Caucus of the National Education Association which publishes a
manual instructing teachers how to promote the gay lifestyle in our K-12 schools.
What do gay teachers groups do? According to GALE's newsletter, here is their agenda:
"Maintain speakers bureau for the presentation of sensitive lesbian and gay perspectives."
"Promote in-school programs that seek to provide counseling for gay and lesbian youth."
"Inclusion of information and recognition of homosexuality into course work in various
disciplines at various grade levels."
"Promote the civil rights of lesbian and gay educators and students."
Incredibly, these groups also assist gay teachers arrested for sexual misconduct and nearly all gay
teacher groups publicize the "Arrested Teachers Hotline" phone number in their newsletters. This
same hotline is listed in the "Gay & Lesbian Telephone Book for Los Angeles and Orange
County.,, (see attached)
Labor Union Promotion of Homosexuality
The NEA has openly promoted homosexuality within our K-12 schools for years, usually behind
the backs of parents who rarely had any idea what was going on. Recently, the NEA received
national coverage for its promotion of "Lesbian and Gay History Month."
Both the NEA and CTA openly promote pro-homosexual curriculum. There were 15 resolutions
at the 1995 NEA convention calling for a pro-homosexual curriculum. The gay caucuses with the
NEA, CTA, and UTLA are substantial and control many influential positions within those
organizations. At the 1996 NEA convention, about a third of the delegates wore "NEA-GLC"
buttons, produced by the Gay & Lesbian Caucus, which was co-founded by Jeff Horton,
President of the Los Angeles Unified School Board.
The NEA publishes "Affording Equal Opportunity to Gay and Lesbian Students Through
Teaching and Counseling: A Training Handbook for Educators." This manual advises stocking
school libraries with pro-gay books, ridding libraries of anti-gay books, how to conduct pro-gay
sensitivity courses for students, teachers and administrators, and how to "introduce gay/lesbian
issues into all curriculum areas."
In 1985, the NEA was involved in a lawsuit in Oklahoma that supported the right of
homosexuals to advocate homosexuality in the classroom.
The CTA likewise has a heavy homosexual influence. The CTA's "Human Rights Department"
publishes pro-gay literature and its most recent conference in San Francisco included a workshop
entitled, "Combating Homophobia in the Classroom," which was really about how to promote the
gay agenda. The CTA distributes a calendar to all teachers that contains dates such as "National
Coming Out Day" and "Gay and Lesbian Pride Month" (see attached). Gay activists within CTA
urge school districts to sponsor pro-gay programs that revolve around these dates.
The CTA policy manual states, "Every district should develop a program which supports an
environment and promotes education leading to an understanding of the diversity of sexual
orientation."
Many local unions now sponsor conferences to train their gay members how to promote
homosexuality within the classroom. For example, the San Diego Teachers Association (SDTA)
recently announced that a "two-day workshop is being offered as a lesbian and gay educational
issues conference.... to discuss student's concerns, curriculum issues, teacher training and
political advocacy in action."
Teacher Workshop/In-Service
Few people realize that our schools use in-service to train teachers how to promote
homosexuality.
* New Haven Superintendent and gay activist Guy Emanuele, hosts workshops for teachers
which urge the following:- "Sponsor activities, assemblies, and curriculum for National Coming
Out Day."
* "Identify gay, lesbian, bisexual contributors through the curriculum (history, literature, art,
science, religion)."
* "Display in classrooms and on school bulletin boards, posters which celebrate the contributions
of bisexuals, gays, and lesbians."
* "Bring in openly gay, lesbian, bisexual adults as resources in classes."
*"Wear LesBiGay positive button or T-shirt."
*The NEA supports "effective ongoing training programs for education employees for the
purpose of identifying and eliminating sexual orientation stereotyping.... Such programs should
attend to but not be limited to: accurate portrayal of the roles and contributions of gay, lesbian,
and bisexual people through history....
*GLSTN, the gay teacher group mentioned earlier, is calling upon their members to "hold
training seminars for school staff on how to make pro-gay changes in the curriculum."
*When a pro-gay workshop for teachers at West Covina Unified was canceled by the school
board, 34 teachers filed suit and won. Judge Joseph Kalin ruled that the trustees and the
administrator "restricted and censored the right of expression of teachers hired to stimulate and
guide young minds." He then ordered the district to hold the workshop! Apparently, schools can
now be forced by the courts to host such workshops!
*Parents of Friends of Lesbians and Gays (P-FLAG) recently boasted in their literature how they
have convinced schools throughout California to hold such workshops. One of P-FLAG's success
stories is the Petaluma school district, where the superintendent has not only initiated pro-gay
workshops, but requires all principals to read "Prayers for Bobbie," a pro-homosexual book.
*San Ramon High holds all day pro-homosexual in-services which are required for all teachers
unless they want to forego a day's salary. The presenters included a transvestite support group
and a who's who of militant gay activists. Incredible propaganda was distributed, including
material claiming that homosexuality is legitimatized by the Bible! The cost to the District in lost
work was about $20,000 (and yet San Ramon will still beg for more funds!).
*At Logan High in Union City, pro-gay workshops are held in which teachers are given handouts
that instruct them in the numerous ways to promote homosexuality in the classroom (see
attached).
*The San Diego Unified School District requires that "all school and district staff" attend a
pro-gay in-service so as "to increase the level of awareness of school employees about the
educational and social needs of gay and lesbian students, staff, and parents." Last year the
in-service was facilitated by Jan Grabowski, who won the title "Lesbian of the Year" by the gay
community for her tireless efforts to promote homosexuality in San Diego schools.
*The proliferation of in-service workshops, paid for by our tax dollars, is now so common that a
cottage industry has grown up around it with dozens of private groups and activist organizations
all vying for contracts with school districts to teach an in-service. One organization, Institute for
Sexual Inclusiveness through Training and Education (INSITE) was organized specifically to
help schools set up workshops promoting homosexuality. (see attached).
*Even the American School Board Association now provides a list of resources to help schools
carry out pro-homosexual in-service and other activities (see attached).
AIDS Education
AIDS education is a mandated course that all school districts must give. The common perception
is that such courses are about the biological facts concerning how AIDS is contracted. However,
it has become increasingly clear that AIDS education is being used by gay activists to convince
students that homosexuality is a normal lifestyle that should be emulated.
Indeed, most districts now contract out homosexual advocacy groups to conduct AIDS education
courses. Such presentations routinely violate our education codes but these codes, when it comes
to AIDS and sex education, are rarely enforced.
The exception to this is the celebrated AIDS education controversy known as the Bruce Budnick
case. When two guest speakers from a San Francisco gay advocacy group called Community
United Against Violence exposed his 11 year old daughter at Everett Middle School to explicit
descriptions of homosexual practices, including how to use dildos and perform anal sex,
Budnick, a liberal Democrat, went on a five year crusade to revoke the credentials of the two
teachers responsible. He succeeded, but San Francisco Unified did everything they could to
stonewall the inquiry and subsequent investigations.
The Community United Against Violence has set up a "Lesbian/Gay Speakers Bureau" to
provide gay speakers to schools. The manual trains speakers how to handle certain questions that
students might ask. Here is an excerpt:
"What about man/boy love?
This question is usually not phrased in this way. Members of the audience usually ask, 'What do
you think about men having sex with little boys?' or 'How do you feel about men raping little
boys?' It is important to immediately label the topic as intergenerational sex', to point out that it is
an issue that is not exclusive to the gay community, and to distinguish between consensual sex
and forcible rape.... the media has recently given a lot of publicity to the North American
Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) and almost always described that group's function as
encouraging child molestation. NAMBLA's main purpose is support, not sex, and not rape.
NAMBLA maybe is singled out for attack because it is a gay organization."
This handbook was approved by San Francisco Unified!
Efforts to require positive opt-in forms be signed by parents before their children are exposed to
such filth failed last year in the legislature. This bill was even modified to simply require that
schools use only license health professionals to present the course. It also failed!
Horror stories involving AIDS education courses in California public schools are plentiful:
Conejo Valley Unified Board member Mildred Lynch witnessed a detailed description of
"fisting" by two AIDS infected homosexual males during an AIDS education seminar.
At Santa Rosa High School, homosexual advocates talked about using cellophane during group
sex and said that "clear is best because you can see what you want to lick."
The San Francisco PTA president witnessed AIDS presentation at Wallenburg Traditional High
School at which the speakers spoke glowing of gay sex: "I feel sorry for people who have not
experienced homosexual activity. They are missing out on a great satisfaction.,, One speaker also
said that "The prostate gland is located between the ass and the testicles ... you can get to it
through the rectum. We massage it with the penis, with the tongue, and the finger."
A Hale Middle school in LAUSD, 12 year olds were subjected to graphic descriptions of anal sex
and tips on how to dispose of used condoms so parents don't find out. A pamphlet was passed out
entitled, 11100 Ways to Make Love Without Doing it."
Clair Connelly, President of the Gay & Lesbian Resource Center of Ventura County and a
certified Red Cross AIDS educator, has testified before Congress that the gay community is
abusing federal AIDS funds to do the following in California schools:
* Conduct explicit AIDS education programs "that encourage promiscuity" and that invite
children to private "educational classes" where they are "enticed into homosexual relationships."
* "Graphically demonstrate anal intercourse ... fisting, rimming, and bondage."
* "Distribute gay and lesbian pornography to students and exchange phone numbers."

Sex Education
As long ago as 1972, the gay community has strategized about how to use sex education to
advance their cause. Indeed, all the major gay groups wrote a "gay rights" platform in 1972 that
called for "federal encouragement and support for sex education courses prepared and taught by
gay women and men, presenting homosexuality as a valid, healthy preference and lifestyle as a
viable alternative to heterosexuality."
The NEA has passed resolutions at all their conventions since the 1980's calling upon its local
affiliates to agitate for sex education programs that include information on "diversity of sexual
orientation." In 1993, the NEA sponsored a sex-ed workshop at the 15th national Lesbian and
Gay Health Conference entitled "Gay Positive School Curricula."
There are three major sex education organizations and publishers that influence the vast majority

Gay sex scenes inundate the book: "Barry, seventeen, is gay: 'I remember making out with a guy
for the first time....
* ETR Associates. Based in Santa Cruz, ETR is a Planned Parenthood spin-off whose materials
redefine homosexuality as a normal expression of sexuality and define all other views as
homophobia. At a ETR conference in 1989, ETR leader Pamela Wilson stated, "In elementary
schools we should start talking about different adult households: same sex roommates, same sex
loving." ETR receives Federal Title XX funds and massive funding from the California office of
Family Planning.
County Dept of Education Promotion of Homosexuality
The Alameda County Board of Education passed a resolution on October 10, 1995 which
requested that all districts support equal rights for "gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender youth."
