Today my heart is officially broken for our country. I am deeply saddened by the actions of our President since his inauguration. Since the beginning of his presidency he has succeeded almost majestically in bringing our country into the worst moral collapse in its history. He has supported measures that only help end the lives of millions of children worldwide with his pro-abortion policies-- all under the guise of reproductive freedom. He has muddied the distinction between the rights of defenseless human beings in the womb and terrorists who are enemies of our country and want to kill us. He defends the rights of our enemies and destroys the rights of our children.

I'm sorry Mr. President, but when you give more rights and protection to those who are enemies of this country and allow defenseless, helpless and precious babies to be butchered in the wombs of their own mothers-- you make yourself a defender of our enemies and hostile to your own citizens. This is a contradiction that must be reconciled. How can you claim to desire to defend the health and reproductive rights of these women when it leads to the destruction of 500,000 little-women a year (John Piper, "No, Mr. President")? There is just no way around it. You cannot avoid it. It is a fundamental contradiction that is deplorable.

And today, the President once again displayed his desire to radically change the moral fabric of American society. He desires to destroy the pillars of objective morality that this great nation was founded. He wants to promote a lifestyle that is immoral, physically and spiritually destructive and detrimental to the advancement of mankind. Here is what he did today:

LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, AND TRANSGENDER PRIDE MONTH, 2009
- - - - - - -
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

A PROCLAMATION

Forty years ago, patrons and supporters of the Stonewall Inn in New York City resisted police harassment that had become all too common for members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community. Out of this resistance, the LGBT rights movement in America was born. During LGBT Pride Month, we commemorate the events of June 1969 and commit to achieving equal justice under law for LGBT Americans.

LGBT Americans have made, and continue to make, great and lasting contributions that continue to strengthen the fabric of American society. There are many well-respected LGBT leaders in all professional fields, including the arts and business communities. LGBT Americans also mobilized the Nation to respond to the domestic HIV/AIDS epidemic and have played a vital role in broadening this country's response to the HIV pandemic.

Due in no small part to the determination and dedication of the LGBT rights movement, more LGBT Americans are living their lives openly today than ever before. I am proud to be the first President to appoint openly LGBT candidates to Senate-confirmed positions in the first 100 days of an Administration. These individuals embody the best qualities we seek in public servants, and across my Administration — in both the White House and the Federal agencies — openly LGBT employees are doing their jobs with distinction and professionalism.

The LGBT rights movement has achieved great progress, but there is more work to be done. LGBT youth should feel safe to learn without the fear of harassment, and LGBT families and seniors should be allowed to live their lives with dignity and respect.

My Administration has partnered with the LGBT community to advance a wide range of initiatives. At the international level, I have joined efforts at the United Nations to decriminalize homosexuality around the world. Here at home, I continue to support measures to bring the full spectrum of equal rights to LGBT Americans. These measures include enhancing hate crimes laws, supporting civil unions and Federal rights for LGBT couples, outlawing discrimination in the workplace, ensuring adoption rights, and ending the existing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy in a way that strengthens our Armed Forces and our national security. We must also commit ourselves to fighting the HIV/AIDS epidemic by both reducing the number of HIV infections and providing care and support services to people living with HIV/AIDS across the United States.

These issues affect not only the LGBT community, but also our entire Nation. As long as the promise of equality for all remains unfulfilled, all Americans are affected. If we can work together to advance the principles upon which our Nation was founded, every American will benefit. During LGBT Pride Month, I call upon the LGBT community, the Congress, and the American people to work together to promote equal rights for all, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 2009 as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month. I call upon the people of the United States to turn back discrimination and prejudice everywhere it exists.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this first day of June, in the year of our Lord two thousand nine, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-third.

BARACK OBAMA


Don't misunderstand the Christian's problem with homosexuality. Homosexuality is a sin. Adultery is a sin. Lying is a sin. You get the point. The adulterer needs Christ and His forgiveness as much as the homosexual. Christians would be aghast if President Obama officially pronounced June as national adultery pride month. Or National Thief appreciation month. You cannot call evil good and good evil. The fear is that Obama is leading us down a path where if Christians try to impress the necessity for preserving the sanctity of life or the protection of sexually moral standards we may (in a short time to come) be accused of hate-crimes. The truth is the homosexual lifestyle (like any sexually deviant one) is destructive. It does not create the harmony and unity in relationship that God designed between a man and a woman. God declares it evil. And the moment you disagree with the ultimate authority (God) on objective morality where will you stop? Should child molestation, rape, murder, theft and the like be up for discussion? Should we rethink the moral foundations of these practices as well?

Ultimately it boils down to your worldview and authority. Our post-modern society just can't decide which worldview it wants to live-by. It wants to borrow from the Christian worldview to get a sense of human dignity, morality, preconditions of intelligibility of science and logic; yet, it wants to jump-out of that worldview when it suits its fancy. It just goes to show how utterly inconsistent and incoherent the unbelievers system of thought is and that only the Christian Theistic worldview can make sense out of reality, how we know what we know and how we should live our lives.

God grant America repentance. Cause America to turn to you and seek salvation through Jesus Christ alone.

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil,who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight! Isaiah 5:20-21
