Changes

I would definitely change the "promote homosexuality in schools" to "promote acceptance of homosexuality in schools".  Definitely sounds like they're trying to make me gay. --[[User:Splark|Splark]] 21:45, 14 March 2007 (EDT)

I agree with the comments of [[User:AmesG|AmesG]] and [[User:Splark|Splark]. The idea that one's ideological opponents have a specific "agenda" is an all-too common one, but such agendas are more often touted by those who oppose than by those who support a group.  That a Supreme Court Justice referred to it, or that it's in some leaflet somewhere, isn't substantive evidence that it exists..

Aren't those five points of the "homosexual agenda" linked to more of a strategy than an "agenda"?  And, aren't they the standard strategy for all interest groups?  1.  Talk about your issue.  2.  Show your group is harmed unless you get what you want.  3.  Provide facts so people can justify agreeing with you.  4.  Portray yourself and your point of view as right and moral.  5.  Portray your opponents and their point of view as wrong and immoral.  6.  Get corporate or other financial support.  Every group and lobbying organization does that, and I don't know that singling out gays and the gay rights movement as doing that is really informative.--[[User:Epicurius|Epicurius]] 11:23, 15 March 2007 (ED
