There is immense pressure on Christians to conform to the liberal sexual ethic of our society and celebrate gay marriage. During the summer, gay pride parades and celebrations shut down traffic in nearly all major cities and LGBTQ rhetoric and imagery dominated the advertising campaigns of major corporations. With so much pressure, it can begin to feel extremely oppressive. How is a Christian supposed to remain faithful to God’s word under so much pressure? 

Recently, Vanco Payment Solutions—an online donation site by which many different organizations accept donations—cut off services from a Louisiana-based Christian group called the Ruth Institute. It did so because the Ruth Institute was supposedly “flagged” for “being affiliated with a product/service that promotes hate, violence, harassment and/or abuse.” The sole evidence for the Ruth Institute’s connection to hate? It appears on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s list of “hate groups.”

Rutgers University, "The State University of New Jersey", has a student center on the New Brunswick campus called the, "Center for Social Justice Education and LGBT Communities", or SJE, for short.

The SJE is part of the Office of Student Affairs, and, as it says on its "About Us" webpage, their mission has a focus on "gender and sexuality".

That is about the understatement of the year...

Recently, Apple’s CEO Tim Cook announced that Apple would donate $1 million to the Southern Poverty Law Center. In the wake of the racism-motivated violence in Charlottesville, Cook stated that he saw this gift as “work[ing] to ensure that everyone is treated equally and with respect.” Indeed, SPLC claims that it is doing just that, especially by publishing a list of “hate groups” that includes some bona fide racist and hateful groups like neo-nazis and the KKK.

The University of Wisconsin-Madison is launching the "'Our Wisconsin' All-Student Inclusion Program" this Fall. It is a "diversity" program, which, in their words, is designed to, "improve the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s campus climate, as it is one of our core beliefs that every student at UW-Madison, regardless of their background or how they may identify, should feel safe, valued, supported, and welcomed."

Too often, the only celebrities and public figures who speak out in public life are liberal. They usually speech out in favor of Democratic candidates or “progressive” causes like gay marriage, transgenderism, and abortion. As we’ve recently reported, high profile athletes and other famous people often partner with Planned Parenthood, NARAL, and other pro-abortion groups.

Time and time again, elite liberal news organizations demonstrate clear bias against conservative and Christian causes and stories. One clear annual reminder of this truth is how little coverage the March For Life attracts from news sites despite being the biggest annual public demonstration by any group in America! The cause is pro-life, so the media ignore it.

One of the saddest consequences of sin is the perversion of the sacred sexual union between a man and a woman in marriage. God created sex to be the consummating act of a lifelong union between one man and one woman. Further, marriage is intended to paint a picture of God’s undying, unending, unadulterated love for us.

The liberal sexual agenda has come full circle. It used to be that Feminists on the Left claimed that there was no difference between men and women, none at all. As such, they argued, women should be allowed in combat roles in the military, affirmative action should be employed to even male-female distributions in every field, and, as we recently reported, engineers can be fired from Google for merely asserting that that well-documented science on different psychological presences between men and women might be true.

Sadly, most of our culture has become inundated with the Left’s new sexual orthodoxy: free sex with whomever you want, however you want, with no strings attached, and no consequences. And now increasingly, the Left is trying to teach this orthodoxy to our children at younger and younger ages. As we’ve recently reported, schools are hosting events with adults in sexualized drag costumes, are forcing boys and girls to use the same restrooms, and in some cases are giving Planned Parenthood access to high schools to brainwash the children there.
