Default The Heterosexual Agenda Exposed!

This is utter brillance from Box Turtle Bulletin!

Quote:
At last, the truth can now be told. In our latest report, The Heterosexual Agenda: Exposing The Myths, we examine the statistics and the case studies that dispel many of the myths about heterosexuality.

No longer satisfied with “mere acceptance” by our society, heterosexual political pressure groups have launched a well-planned, well-financed campaign, which, if left unchecked, threatens to destroy the most fundamental structures of American society. This report considers the implications of the heterosexual agenda (both overt and hidden), the problems it has already caused and its potentially disasterous results for socety.

In The Heterosexual Agenda: Exposing The Myths, you will learn how:

* heterosexual militants have embarked on a systematic assault on American values;
* heterosexual activists plan on recruiting your children into their lifestyle;
* heterosexuals are undermining traditional marriage;
* heterosexuals are undermining the health and safety of society;
* violence has become a hallmark of the heterosexual lifestyle;
* heterosexuals are intent on eventually recriminalizing all freedoms of expression for gay men and women. (It’s already happening in Zimbabwe, Nigeria, and throughout the Middle East where the heterosexual agenda is well advanced.)

Here is where the buck stops — no hype, no exaggeration, no fear-mongering — just the facts. Whether you are personally impacted by heterosexuality or simply concerned about this controversial issue, you will be informed and challenged by The Heterosexual Agenda: Exposing The Myths. Download your copy today!
The site makes it very clear this is a parody and intends to make a point about how anti-gay activist demonize GLBT folks! This is a must read for anti-gay acitivsts. It really shows what things would be like if the tables were turned.

Question Some arguments are truely irrefutable

"Statistics show that 69% of all hard drug users started out by using marijuanna, but 99.9% of all alcoholics started out on milk." It's totally obvious from that that milk is far more dangerous to our society than marijuanna. You make your point, Joe.

P&L, Bruce Chris

I just read the parody The Heterosexual Agenda !!!! OMG it was great! I love the way it took just snipets (sp?) of factual information and blended it with exaggeration to make it seem like truth. That is exactly what the AFA, Focus on the Family and the like do to us as GLBT people. They sensationalize something they can't accept as being a fact. They take a few statistics and blow it up, add their own scare tactics to it and then present it in grandstanding fashion to the general public who blindly accept it as truth. I loved it!

I have access to 3 computers; home, and work, in 2 different buildings. I tried viewing the pdf at home. Firefox wouldn't open it. I tried it at my main building, nothing there. I am at my 2nd school building now and after several attempts at opening the file (it kept crashing) I am finally printing it!

Thumbs up We gotta spread this one around.

I read it last night and it was dead on. Not just the parody/satire part but the explanation parts.

“How to write an anti-gay tract in fifteen easy steps.”
-Documenting all the different ways to deceive and manipulate the reader. How to get the "facts" you want by going out of your way to find the right studies and stats, or just using and twisting portions of studies/stats.

If you’re familiar with Jim Burroway and Boxturtlebulletin then you know he’s an expert at researching the “research” used for dishonest studies, articles etc.

He explains the nature and motive of the parody itself in the “Epilogue: What I learned by writing this parody.” That it’s not an “attack on Christianity” – even though he’s more than open about the parody aspect throughout the “anti-gay tract” section.

It’s a complete animal, utter brilliance as Joe put. This is one for the history books and a perfect example of how this situation needs to be approached.

-Expose HOW they are telling the lies, and do so in entertaining and informative ways with absolute clarification of a non-violent motive.
