Lalala We Can't Hear You!!!

As society rushes to alter the fabric of the family there are some out there who are attempting to take a look at what the possible consequences will be to future generations.

A Married Mom and Dad Really Do Matter: New Evidence from Canada
There is a new and significant piece of evidence in the social science debate about gay parenting and the unique contributions that mothers and fathers make to their children’s flourishing. A study published last week in the journal Review of the Economics of the Household—analyzing data from a very large, population-based sample—reveals that the children of gay and lesbian couples are only about 65 percent as likely to have graduated from high school as the children of married, opposite-sex couples. And gender matters, too: girls are more apt to struggle than boys, with daughters of gay parents displaying dramatically low graduation rates.
Unlike US-based studies, this one evaluates a 20 percent sample of the Canadian census, where same-sex couples have had access to all taxation and government benefits since 1997 and to marriage since 2005.
While in the US Census same-sex households have to be guessed at based on the gender and number of self-reported heads-of-household, young adults in the Canadian census were asked, “Are you the child of a male or female same-sex married or common law couple?” While study author and economist Douglas Allen noted that very many children in Canada who live with a gay or lesbian parent are actually living with a single mother—a finding consonant with that detected in the 2012 New Family Structures Study—he was able to isolate and analyze hundreds of children living with a gay or lesbian couple (either married or in a “common law” relationship akin to cohabitation).
So the study is able to compare—side by side—the young-adult children of same-sex couples and opposite-sex couples, as well as children growing up in single-parent homes and other types of households.~snip~
There are those who have a vested interest in the outcome who have claimed that these kinds of studies have already been debunked. Mostly by attacking the methodology of the studies, it's unfortunate that the same scrutiny hasn't been used on the limited studies they cite that supposedly do the debunking.

Unfortunately it appears that society is dead set on handing over generations of children to try and survive in dysfunctional family units without a fair airing of the consequences that might ensue. I mean it's not like the liberal/commie media will report on any studies that might cast doubt on the catechism of "gay rights" and how it might affect any children trapped in the grip of homosexual equality.
Opposing evidence or opinions are not allowed.

Someday, in the not to distant future, there will be a generation that will stand before society who will demand to know why we allowed  them to be set up for failure when the possible evidence was staring us in the face.
The poorest response we could give is the "the gays made us do it".

Tolerance Roundup

In today's America the old adage of things not to discuss in polite company, religion and politics, has a new addition to the list. Especially if your position is to oppose it.
Gay "rights".
We all know about the bakery that was run out of business or the photographer in N.M who declined to photograph a same-sex union ceremony because of religious beliefs.

If anyone believes these are isolated incidents then they couldn't be more wrong.

One complaint, Facebook campaign force restaurant owners to take down ‘anti-gay’ newspaper clipping
BANCROFT, Ontario, September 3, 2013 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A restaurant owner in the Eastern Ontario town of Bancroft has been forced to remove a newspaper clipping that had been on a bulletin board for over ten years because of one complaint that resulted in a Facebook campaign to organize a protest at the privately owned business.
The old Toronto Star clipping featuring the words "God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve" has been pinned to the bulletin board of the Eagle’s Nest Restaurant and Bakery for a decade, according to owners Sadie and Doug Creighton. The clipping stirred no controversy until a lesbian couple new to the community complained that they were offended by it.
“The sign caught my eye almost as soon as we sat down,” said Nat Brouse, who had gone to the restaurant for breakfast with her "wife" Steph Murphy.
“At first we were shocked that such an overt sign of hatred was just hanging out in the open to intimidate the queer community,” said Brouse, according to a Bancroft This Week report.~snip~
Here's on that has nothing to do with religious reasons but a business owner responding to complaints by his customers.

Portland bar owner must pay $400,000 for kicking transgender patrons out of bar
PORTLAND, OR, September 4, 2013 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A Portland bar owner will have to pay a $400,000 fine for kicking out a group of cross-dressers whom he says were ruining his business.
Chris Penner, the owner of the Twilight Room Annex, has to pay 11 transgender patrons the hefty sum after asking them to stop coming to his bar.
Penner said female patrons complained that the transgender men went to the restroom with the stall doors open, then left the toilet seats up when they were finished.
“I feel for this bar owner. Obviously these gender-confused men who want to be 'women' were causing him to lose customers with their outrageous behavior,” Peter LaBarbera, president of Americans For Truth About Homosexuality, told LifeSiteNews.com. “Now he's been hit with a massive fine courtesy of discriminatory pro-LGBT laws.”
Penner left a voicemail asking the men, who call themselves the T-Girls, to stop coming to his bar (then called the P Club) every Friday.
“People think that a.) We’re a tranny bar or b.) We’re a gay bar. We are neither,” he said. “People are not coming in because they just don’t want to be here on a Friday night now.”~snip~
In other words the government has decided that this business owner can't even determine the nature of his establishment and what kind of customers he wants to attract.
I wonder what the governments reaction would be if a bunch of bikers took over his bar and he asked them to leave after trashing the place?
It's not just religious reasons that business owners want to have the right to run their businesses as they choose, the truth is that customers will decide for themselves how much "tolerance" they will have towards deviant behaviour and will spend their time and money where they will feel comfortable.

The New Rainbow Nation

As I was watching all the liberal/commie news media yesterday slobbering uncontrollably over the decisions handed down by the Supreme Court, I couldn't help but reflect about how we got to this point.
Then I read Justice Scalia's dissent and realized that he got it right.
To question its high-handed invalidation of a presumptively valid statute is to act (the majority is sure) with the purpose to "dis- parage," "injure," "degrade," "demean," and "humiliate" our fellow human beings, our fellow citizens, who are homo- sexual. All that, simply for supporting an Act that did no more than codify an aspect of marriage that had been unquestioned in our society for most of its existence— indeed, had been unquestioned in virtually all societies for virtually all of human history. It is one thing for a society to elect change; it is another for a court of law to impose change by adjudging those who oppose it hostes humani generis, enemies of the human race.
This whole campaign to fundamentally change society was waged on a platform of hatred, threats, marginalization, patently false assertions and lies about a good many citizens of this country.
We wouldn't be at this point if the forces of "change" hadn't been able to effectively wage a war against religion in the name of tolerance. Without the liberal/commie media this wouldn't have been possible as they bent over backwards to silence opposing views.

Already the stage is set for future oppression, take the recent case of Paula Deen, who BTW was a big cheerleader for liberalism and "hope and change".
All this after it was revealed in a deposition that she uttered the n***** word 27 years ago.

I'm not defending her, I kind of enjoy it when liberals eat their own, but it is a harbinger of what's in store in the future.
I can see liberal news media talking heads asking people if they were "Jesus freaks" in the 70's or "are you now or have you ever been a member of a southern Baptist church" or attended a Catholic school?

With each step the gay friendly politically correct media and leaders make the greater the push will be to purge every last pocket of resistance to their desires.
This country won't be defeated by a foreign army, it will be defeated by the haters of freedom within.
