Jay's Gay Agenda

Product Information

Today the term "diversity" means more than seeking women and minorities to join a company or organization. It often includes embracing homosexuality, LGBT behavior and showing solidarity with the gay agenda. There’s one thing Jay Collier knows for sure - he’s a statistical anomaly as the only out gay kid in his small rural Washington town. While all his friends can’t stop talking about their heterosexual hookups and relationships, Jay can only dream of his own firsts, compiling a romance to-do list of all the things he hopes to one day experience - his Gay Agenda. Can you tease anything about your next YA, a queer retelling of Splash? Because I’m dying from anticipation! Why did you want to write about merfolk? In this article, "gay" (or "lesbian," if female) refers to one who is actively engaging in a homosexual lifestyle, indulging in sexual relationships and activity.

In part it's reactionary against the past. It's understandable that gays want to avoid persecution as severe as they once felt from some religious, social and political groups. They want to avoid this deeply painful treatment fraught with fear, isolation and ridicule.Perhaps not so coincidentally, Jesus Christ compares the days leading up to His second coming to the destruction of Sodom in Lot's day (Luke 17:28-30). Thanks in part to the gay agenda, our society is headed in the same direction. Nearly all the people of Sodom had turned away from God's way of life (Genesis 18:16-22). There were not even 10 righteous people to be found in the city. The men of the city threatened to sexually violate the two angelic messengers God sent to warn Lot to leave before He destroyed the city (Genesis 19:1-29; Jude 7). I love that Jay is such a flawed character and he makes mistakes as he’s figuring everything out. Why did you want to write a character who has to apologize and learn to take accountability for their mistakes? Can a 17-year-old with her first girlfriend prevent real-life folks from discovering her online fandoms? In addition, Brown believes that pressure will build for American businesses to openly embrace every aspect of these biblically immoral practices to the point that employees who resist or refuse to follow suit will be dismissed. Brown provides an example of the efforts of one homosexual advocacy organization over the past two decades: "This is the day of the 'queering of elementary educations' —to quote the title of a highly-praised book —and much of this is due to the influence of GLSEN, the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Educational Network (pp. 87-88).

To understand the struggles of those with SSA who are sincerely trying to resist sexual temptations and who are trying to "be transformed" to follow "the perfect will of God" (Romans 12:2), please see " The Human Side of Homosexuality: From One Who Has Struggled"). As he documents, "There are well-funded, highly-motivated, sharply-focused gay activist organizations such as HRC [Human Rights Campaign] and NGLTF [National Gay and Lesbian Task Force] and PFLAG [Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays] and GLSEN [Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network] and GLAAD [Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation] and Lambda Legal—just to mention a few" (p. 40). But is it really sinister to provide an honest evaluation of what is really taking place? The fact is, there is a gay agenda. Simply put, it's an organized effort to produce political, social and religious change within society that will lead to tolerating—and eventually accepting as normal—homosexual relationships. It offers activities designed to subvert the family, including one titled "Deconstructing Definitions of Family." Brown summarizes, "In short, say goodbye to male and female, to masculinity and femininity, to 'biological sex,' and say hello to genderqueer, gender non-conforming, transgender, and transsexual" (p. 95). We must remain vigilantly on guard against letting a morally degenerating society pull us down with it—as Christ warned: "And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold" (Matthew 24:12).In law and society, marriage touches every aspect of life from birth to death. Since God is the Creator of human beings and marriage, only He has the right to define what the marriage relationship should be. These do far more than just provide a "safe place" for homosexual, bisexual and transgender students to hang out. They have become a springboard for pro-homosexual advocacy. They seek to alter curriculum and silence dissent. They push for the full acceptance of homosexuality in schools. So through Jay, I hope readers realize it’s okay to make mistakes, that it’s natural to prioritize ourselves when we’re experiencing relationships for the first time, but that when you screw up and you hurt someone, you have to own up to it. You have to say how you hurt someone, show them you understand where your actions caused them pain so that you won’t repeat those mistakes. Sometimes, the act of messing up and owning up to it then doing better can bring you closer than you ever were before, but that can only happen with accountability.

It can be a struggle for those who desire to leave the gay lifestyle (again, see " The Human Side of Homosexuality: From One Who Has Struggled"). And like other human temptations, it may be a battle they fight all their lives. But God knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations (2 Peter 2:9).Until recent years, many homosexuals felt publically scorned by some who view homosexual acts as the worst of sins—usually with little or no mercy shown. Another example is his pushing for the 2011 ending of restrictions on homosexuals serving openly in the U.S. military, a practice which had been in existence since the time of George Washington. And it is encouraging to see there is clear biblical evidence that God can help change wrong behavior—including homosexuality and sodomy, as some of the Corinthian church members were able to do (1 Corinthians 6:9-11).
