“Prayer, God and his commandments were kicked out of the classroom because they might influence children not to lie, steal and kill. But ushered into that void was a dark agenda that robs children of their innocence and puts their life [sic] at risk … We now know with the redefinition of marriage comes a state invitation to indoctrinate your child,” says Janet Porter of Faith2Action speaking in her film “Light Wins.”
If you actually believe what is said about gay people in “Light Wins” you’d have no choice but to grab a torch and pitchfork and join a Christian mob to drive “homosexuals” into the sea. The slander against gays is as breathtaking as the ambition and dishonesty of the film. It first gained notoriety among a wider audience after Right Wing Watch brought attention to some snippets of the film released online.
Those clips come off like a gay version of “Reefer Madness,” that hysterical anti-pot film from the ’30s. I found the clips so absurd, I thought it would be “fun” to buy the whole movie (released in March) and pick it apart. By the end of this 100-minute misinformation marathon, I was not laughing. It is as paranoid, dishonest and bigoted a thing as I have ever seen in my life, but it’s also earnest, deeply religious and well organized.
It’s hard to believe such a work could still have any impact, even in the darkest recesses of our superstition-driven society, but the film lays down a step-by-step case on why being gay is “dangerous,” why gays cannot also be Christians and how schools are indoctrinating your children into the “homosexual lifestyle.” If you could switch off your critical thinking skills, you too could be caught up in the anti-gay hysteria. It’s easy to dismiss such a collection of bizarre claims, but that’s a mistake. This movie will damage someone, a gay child in a Christian household, perhaps, or a middle-aged Christian agonizing over his or her sexuality, real people who are too often suffering.
i can't get away from the fact that these bigots self wrapped in the religion of their choice not the Christian religion not worshiping God, but defying every word in the Good Book and everything Jesus taught. i said in another post Jesus went among lepers to minister and heal evangelicals can't stop attacking those whose lives don't impact them as they do to those the attack. these people don't know those they oppose so hate is a manifesto not determined on fact.
NEW RULES, evangelicals must explain to the rest of us how our Bibles say one thing and their God says another, and produce the written word that tells them to hate Gays.
