(ThyBlackMan.com) I am so very happy that I am not GLAAD (Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation). But, I am getting very tired of writing about their terrorist tactics that they employ towards anyone who refuses to accept their lifestyle choices.
Their latest target is former child actor Kirk Cameron. Kirk Cameron is best known for his role as Mike Seaver on the television situation comedy, “Growing Pains.”
Last week he appeared on Piers Morgan’s TV show on CNN. Morgan asked Kirk Cameron what his thoughts were on gay marriage (which is an oxymoron, since there is no such thing as gay marriage, by definition). Kirk Cameron responded by stating, “…I believe that marriage was defined by God a long time ago. Marriage is almost as old as dirt and it was defined in the garden between Adam and Eve: one man one woman for life – ah till death do you part. So, I would never attempt to redefine marriage and I don’t think that anyone else should either. So do I support the idea of gay marriage? No I don’t.”
So, can someone please tell me what was homophobic or antigay about Cameron’s response? Is GLAAD suggesting that the only way not to be viewed as homophobic or anti-gay is by agreeing with them?
Since Morgan didn’t get the answer he wanted, he probed further by asking Kirk Cameron if he thought homosexuality was a sin. He was asked this same question no fewer than 3 times and to his credit, he didn’t fall into Morgan’s trap. Kirk Cameron said, “I think that it’s ah – it’s it’s it’s it’s unnatural. I think that it’s it’s it’s detrimental and ultimately destructive to so many of the foundations of civilization.” So again, can someone please tell me what was homophobic or anti-gay about Kirk Cameron’s response?
So, GLAAD and gay rights activists are saying we must override the morals and values that were instilled in us and accept their morals and values in order not to be viewed as homophobic or anti-gay. Are you kidding me?
It is very unnatural for those of the same sex to engage in sexual activity. I challenge GLAAD to show me where in nature is this not true. Has anyone ever seen two male lions engaging in sex or two male tigers, or two male sharks or two male whales?
It’s no more natural for two males to have sex as it is for someone to go skydiving (jumping out of a plane with a parachute). It’s not natural, but people do it. It’s so unnatural that it is almost impossible to get insurance if you are a professional skydiver. It’s so unnatural that if you get injured or die while skydiving, that is grounds to void most contracts of professional athletes and entertainers.
So, before you bring race into the picture, let me do a preemptive strike. Blacks were denied acceptance, not because it was unnatural, but because whites refused to enforce what was already written in the U.S. Constitution. Therefore, laws were passed specifically delineating rights that Blacks were entitled to.
There is absolutely no provisions in the U.S. Constitution based on sexual preference. That’s the difference between the odious comparisons gays like to use to compare their issue to that of Blacks. There is no comparison.
GLAAD issued their usual response to Cameron’s comments. Herndon Graddick, GLAAD’s Senior Director of Programs and Communications said, “Saying that gay people are ‘detrimental to civilization’ might be ‘loving’ in Kirk Cameron’s mind, but it’s gay youth and victims of bullying who truly suffer from adults like Kirk Cameron who espouse these ideas… Kirk Cameron used his platform to attack gay Americans…”
Oh, really? Kirk Cameron was asked about his values and now GLAAD is trying to attack him simply because he refused to agree with their life choices! For the third time, can someone please tell me what was homophobic or anti-gay about Cameron’s response?
Let me interpret GLAADs actions for you. They are not interested in equality. They are only interested in acceptance of their lifestyle choices. So, if you don’t agree to accept their lifestyle choices, then they will label you “homophobic,” “anti-gay,” or “hateful,” etc.
They insist, no, they demand that you change your own value system to accommodate their lifestyle choices. Anything short of this means you are homophobic.
As a graduate of Oral Roberts University, here is what I propose: I invite GLAAD’s two Co-chairs, Sheri Fults and Micahel Lammons to join me and Kirk Cameron in hosting a town-hall meeting in Washington, DC in June. If GLAAD’s mission is to promote equality and understanding (as they claim, but for which there is no evidence), then let’s undertake a civil evening of conversation with people who have differing views on the gay rights agenda.
I was once told that, “the reasonable man adapts himself to the world, the unreasonable man adapts the world to himself; therefore all progress is dependent on the unreasonable man.” I am unreasonable enough to think that GLAAD will take me up on my offer. If they don’t, then I will be happy that I’m not GLAAD.

As a black man; I’d wish all my brothers and sisters to ask themselves if it is right that after being discriminated against, segregated, treated like second class citizens in the past (and still to a point in the present); that we discriminate,mock and hold a perverse opinion against others for their sexuality?
Yeah, yeah, yeah… “it’s unnatural, they’re fa**ots, they’re soft, they walk funny and flaunt their gay lifestyle infront of me when not trying to bugger my kids…” OOOHHHH THE HUMANITY!!!!!!!!!!!
Whatever, GET OVER IT!!!
The misconceptions run amock on this one.
I’m a black gay man and DARE I say PROUD to be both? I own my own business employing 5, I’ve served in the US military, been deployed twice to the middle east, pay my taxes, breath air, drink water(and the occassional 40oz) and active in politics. All of which while being gay and if I didn’t tell you; then you wouldn’t know it. We all come in different shapes and sizes. And although I may not be caught dead wearing a pair of rainbow colored hot pants at the gay pride parade; it doesn’t make me any less proud. Just less Flamboyant.
@Nathan black people don’t really appreciate the comparison to homosexuals. I personally find it to be an offense. As a heterosexual or homosexual I can choose to be celibate, I can choose not be in a relationship. When I walk into a room noone has to know anything about my sexual orientation. I can’t ever take a break from being black.
Kirk Cameron was asked a question. He told the truth about what he believed. If you have a problem with a man giving an honest answer, when ask a direct question, you should check yourself.
@nathan. Black and Gay is not the same thing. Saying it is doent make it so.
Everyone’s entitled to their opinion. Maybe Rosa Parkes should have accepted her lot in life and just sat in the back. As a minority, I would think you’d understand tolerance and diversity. Spose arseholes come ib all shapes and sizes. Oh, not to forget colours.
Sexual urges are unnatural to a person who doesn’t experience them. You can see this any day: young children find adults kissing and touching “yucky”—watch them shield their eyes. Sharing personal space and exchanging saliva is pretty gross. That all changes when puberty kicks in: what was then “gross” quickly turns into “fantastic”. But no one condemns young children, now do they?
I submit that homosexual urges are unnatural to straight people but quite natural to homosexuals—it’s our nature. Similarly, I submit heterosexual urges are unnatural to gay people. So, straight people (you know who you are), please stay off our turf: it’s unnatural for you, you’re scary when you try, and undeniably in your case, it’s downright sinful. Yuck!
Thank you for your stance ……. soooo refreshing!
@ Not giving you my name. I once had a knock down drag out argument with a socialist who claims to be pan Africanist…an oxymoron of immense proportion. He sent me numerous excerpts from the book and I followed up on this information some.
I suggest you read the book, I doubt you will get any insight just because of your response to the writer. This book has been challenged and his thesis, which is really guess work, debunked.
I also want you to research the effect on the adrenal gland from exposure to environmental toxicity, as well as bio-modification of our food source and that..
Actually you know what? forget it. This is just like throwing pearls at swine’s feet

Happens all the time in nature. Here’s a link, you uninformed moron: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_animals_displaying_homosexual_behavior
I was profoundly blessed by your insight and wisdom. Daniel 12:3 – you are a star!
