HOW THE BIBLE BECAME 'HATE SPEECH' IN CALIFORNIA
By Rev. Ted Pike
30 Oct 07
Since governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed into law
S.B. 777, outlawing Biblical criticism of homosexuality in CA public
schools (See, California
'Mom,' 'Dad' ban garners international scorn),
California's Christians have faced a dilemma: withdraw their children
to private Christain schools or watch them progressively corrupted
by an educational system that demonizes their religious bias against
sodomy.
This ban on the Bible is not a recent capricious edict from Sacramento
liberals or the Republican "Terminator" Governor Schwarzenegger.
It's the result of massive social engineering throughout the past
half century but begun in earnest in 1985 by the Anti-Defamation
League of B'nai B'rith. ADL is architect of "anti-bias" educational
programs worldwide. Here's how this Jewish activist group helped
make it criminal to criticize sodomy in California --and intends
to do so everywhere.
Re-Defining Hate
America was founded on tolerance--as a place where people of widely
diverse races, religions, and creeds could follow their convictions
free from persecution. But America 's founders hardly believed that
vice should be tolerated or that it's wrong to be prejudiced against
it! Early American social ethics (as taught in homes, schools and
churches) said the opposite: Families, social groups and even government
should encourage "bias" against all forms of vice. These
include robbery, graft, prostitution, etc. and that vice so unnatural
that for thousands of years it was virtually unmentionable--sodomy.
Yet, in the early 1980s, Jewish-dominated media determined to create
as much damage as possible from the sixties' sexual revolution (which
they promoted). I vividly remember how, more than ever before, they
encouraged not just the drug culture, abortion and fornication but
especially "gay rights." In fact, sodomy is being pushed
down the throats of Christian America until it will soon become criminal
not to be a homosexual but a Christian! (See, Judaism
and Homosexuality: A Marriage Made in Hell and Jews
Confirm Big Media Is Jewish)
In league with the Jewish media, ADL's social re-engineering of
America and the world has been largely accomplished through its massive "World
of Difference" educational program. In 1985, ADL began
an educational thrust that encompassed all levels of public education,
government, corporations, and social organizations. ADL relentlessly
taught millions that we are entitled to no bias against race, religion,
or “sexual orientation.” All bias, ADL teaches,
is very bad. No one is entitled to claim that he, his religion, or
sexual orientation is right and others wrong. "When
we convince ourselves that our way is the "right way," we
are more likely to strike out at those who are different. In fact,
intolerance of differences is at the roots of most violence." (http://www.adl.org/guide/default.asp)
ADL teaches that, for practical purposes, bias and "hate" are
the same. Biblical bias expressed against homosexuality constitutes "harassment" and “verbal
violence,” the precursor of hate-motivated violence (hate crimes).
First Step: Make Bias Socially Taboo
Wanting to eventually criminalize bias against homosexuality, ADL
first had to make it a violation of social norms. Since 1985, "more
than 375,000 elementary and secondary school teachers, responsible
for nearly 12 million students," have participated in ADL's "World
of Difference" program. These included anti-bias programs beginning
as early as age 3-5. Lesson formats such as "I Belong to Many
Groups" foster global--not religious or national--loyalties
in young people.
ADL sensitivity training programs in corporate America taught business
owners to defer to homosexuals as almost a protected species in regard
to hiring or firing. After decades of conditioning, American business
has been prepared for ADL's workplace bias crime laws on the federal
and state level. (This includes ENDA, the Employment Non-Discrimination
Act, now before Congress.)
ADL also teaches law enforcement at all levels how to recognize
and report bias crimes. It conditioned US Justice Department officials,
FBI, and all police departments to believe that verbal “intimidation” of
homosexuals is virtually a hate crime and that “gay bashing” may
well be traceable to evangelical pulpits.
The Fruits of ADL's Labors
In the 1980s, ADL led countless young people away from Christians' "homophobic" bias
against homosexuality. They are now the teachers, police officers,
jurists, and administrators who guide America 's public policy. As
exists in Canada and now in California , this policy increasingly
empowers legislative provision for stiff protection of homosexuals
as beleaguered victims of Christian intolerance.
For 23 years, ADL has cultivated, watered and fertilized the moral
and cultural soil of America toward acceptance of homosexuality.
This contradicts moral standards that prevailed for at least the
last 5,000 years.
So it was no surprise when the first openly lesbian member of California
's state assembly, Sheila Koehl, submitted a bill banning criticism
of homosexuality in the public school systems. Gov. Schwarzenegger
then enshrined on the legislative level a program of moral transformation
begun more than 20 years earlier by ADL.
Yet ADL remains unexposed, unidentified, and uncriticized by Christian
evangelicals and their leaders. Why the silence? ADL is 100% Jewish.
The majority of evangelicals believe that God will "curse" the
nation or person who criticizes Jews. (Gen. 12:3) Their leaders,
who are becoming more aware of ADL origins of hate laws and organized
anti-Christianity, fear they will be cursed by a mass exodus of support
if they criticize God's chosen people.
Yet, if the church remains silent concerning those who invented
and foment “anti-bias” laws, there is little to ultimately
restrain passage of a virtual epidemic of hate laws identical to
S.B. 777. Like poisonous mushrooms sprouting in profusion after extended
rain, such laws will crop up in state and federal capitals and dominate
the moral and political landscape, not only in America but throughout
the world.
