USDA Training Equating ‘Heterosexism’ to Racism Could Soon be Gov’t Norm

The Washington Times reports that U.S. Department of Agriculture officials are moving to push their gay-sensitivity training program — which equates believing marriage to only be between one man and one woman with sexism or racism — into the training of all federal employees, according to an internal newsletter.
If accepted by President Obama’s Office of Personnel Management (OPM), sensitivity training with rhetoric condemning those who believe in “Heterosexism” will be the norm for all federal agency training programs including those in the Department of Defense and Pentagon.
The USDA program defines “heterosexism” as an “‘ism’ like sexism or racisim, where one is considered better than others.”
Supporters have called the USDA training “groundbreaking” while critics feel “heterosexists” serving our country at home and abroad should not have their government compare them to sexists or racists.
“This would drive out thousands of experienced troops, starting with chaplains and people of faith who do not support LGBT ideology and activism,” Elaine Donnelly of the Center for Military Readiness told the Times.
OPM, which oversees all federal employee policies, has applauded Agriculture Secretary and former Iowa Governor Thomas J. Vilsack (D) for launching his Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) Special Emphasis Program at the USDA.
“OPM has called our LGBT work ‘groundbreaking’ and expressed an interest in using it as a model for other federal agencies,” read the internal newsletter titled My USDA: A Progress Report for Employees on USDA’s Cultural Transformation.
OPM Director of Diversity and Inclusion Veronica Villalobos said “USDA is one of the many agencies we are currently working closely with, and while OPM continues to encourage this type of training, the effort has not gone governmentwide.”

Posted on June 20, 2011 at 7:13pm@Encinom “Cute, what did you do replace the “o” with a zero, to spread your hateful bible thumping ignornace (sic)?”
So calling something that is abnormal abnormal is hateful bible thumping ignorance? Just who the hell pronounced homosexuality as normal and natural? The sodomites did, and they didn’t give the rest of us a choice in the matter. By golly, we were GOING to accept what they were doing and if we didn’t, then we were a homophobe, a bigot, and heaven knows what else.
It has never occurred to any of the sodomites that WE, the people, have a RIGHT to say NO. Coming onto private property for the sole purpose of engaging in criminal activity, whether it be disrupting a public or private event or throwing various objects at people isn’t going to win you supporters. And if your intent is to provoke a physical altercation, be careful what you wish for.
Mark my words: Short of widespread voter fraud, Obama is going to be a one-term president. And whether the next Prez will be Perry, Palin or Bachmann (not that RINO Romney), you can bet things will not be like this for long.

Posted on June 20, 2011 at 7:23pmit IS “abnormal” – the problem is hanging a moral component on that morally neutral word. Having naturally red hair is “abnormal.” Abnormal has no morality to it, positive or negative.
Calling it STATISTICALLY abnormal is not hateful at all – calling it morally abnormal with the undertone of “freak” or “pervert” is something else again. it is insulting and, frankly, unbecoming of a christian.
i will agree with you on one point though – those idiots and their glitter do nothing but alienate middle of the road people they need to win. of a truth, the gay community would be MUCH more accepted in the mainstream now than they are if misguided people like ACT UP back in the day, or these glitter bombers, or those who go out to the parade and TRY to be as shocking as the possibly can would never have behaved that way.
they are a tiny minority of all gay people but they certainly screw things up – not unlike hateful, mean-spirited Christians (of whom the Phelps clan is the cartoonish example but not the only hateful ones about) make unbelievers often mistakenly assume all Christians are hateful, closed-minded, judgmental tools.
That’s not really true of course – but how many of you think about that image before you toss off a rant about “Sodomites”?

Posted on June 21, 2011 at 4:39am@Dyna – I’m well aware of that verse – I’ve preached it. But the message then and your message now ignores context. Besides, you are arguing that god “gave over” a person who spent over 30 years of her life in prayer and supplication crying out to god to be healed – pouring out my soul in “repentance” for that which I honestly believed (wrongly as it turns out) to be sin.
is THAT the sort of person god “gives over”?
I spent most of 20 years in the ministry preaching and teaching the false doctrine you direct at me – is THAT the qualification to be “given over”?
Use your head and quit parroting the lies told to you by those who were themselves lied to
Oh, and by the way, if we’re gonna quote Paul:
1 Cor. 14:34
“Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak;”
How’s your obedience on THAT verse? what about the whole “keep your head covered” thing – you have your hat on every time you come before god? oh, better yet – the same book you quoted says that liars and gossips, as well as (supposedly) gays are worthy of death – are you without fault in these areas?
or do you just throw out Bible verses when they DON’T apply to YOU?
Report Post »Tammy_Beth
Posted on June 21, 2011 at 4:52am@JJ – all well and good.
but god calls eating shellfish and pork a sin too – in the same book in which he calls homosexuality an abomination.
Paul writes against it (if you read out of context) but Paul in the same chapter says gossips are worthy of death and he says women should keep quiet in the church which pretty much no evangelical church practices.
All that aside, if you want to believe and practice in your own life and church that it is an abomination – fine by me.
But in a FREE country, it is not the place of the government to enforce a RELIGIOUS teaching – even a true one – under the force of law. If your reading of the bible is 100% correct, it does not move the argument that the government should discriminate against gays ONE inch.
if the government can define one religious rite (marriage) according to a church’s doctrine, then it can define a different one the same way – how would you feel if the government defined Baptism according to any one denominations theology and enforced it on everyone?
or is oppression not really oppression so long as it’s not directed at you and favors YOUR beliefs?

These posts aren’t about this administration spending money recklessly as it should be. You people are just using this as an excuse to hate a group of people. Why? Because a book tells you so.

Posted on June 22, 2011 at 2:26am@Joe1234 – taking your posts in order:
1. The government enforces prohibitions that parallel moral teaching but also have a secular purpose. If a government has not the power to defend life and property, then there’s no reason to have a government at all. there are valid non-religious reasons for those laws, and many others. Many parallel a religious teaching, others do not and some surely contradict religious teachings (as you allude to later.
I did not say it is not the governments place to enforce anything religion agrees with them on, I said it’s not their place to enforce a SOLELY religious principle. For instance: both government and religion forbid theft; the government forbids espionage while the Bible is silent on it, the Bible instructs to be truthful but it is not illegal to lie. You may THINK you want the government to enforce religious precepts – but you will change your mind when it enforces upon you the precepts of a religion you do not believe in.
2. I have made NO comment in favor of any such oppression and I challenge you to provide proof of your claim. I do not in fact favor anything which oppresses the views of one upon the behavior of another unless actual harm occurs.
3. What rights of YOURS will be taken away because gays and trans are treated equally beforethe law?

Posted on June 22, 2011 at 2:30am4. I believe and have stated elsewhere that the Catholic charities, and other religious institutions, must retain their freedom of conscience. The fact that I stand for LGT people having full equality before the law does NOT oblige me to side with them in every case that comes before the court. Even when I think the church is wrong, i absolutely defend their right to that view so long as they do no harm.
5. whatever you may accuse Ryan of, rightly or wrongly, i certainly don’t hate Christians – I AM one. Which often makes me just as unpopular on the left as being supportive of equality makes me unpopular on the right.

1) marriage has a very secular purpose…the continuation of the species and our civilization. have you seen what happens fo children of broken homes? do you need to take a tour, at night, of chicago, LA, or some other city to find out for yourself? As research in the netherlands has shown (see Kurtz) gay marriage weakens REAL marriage..with the result being more broken homes…more fatherless children…more gangs, drug use, crime, etc.
2-3) I just cited 2 instances of people having their rights taken away to accomodate the gays. even the liberals at the NY times agree…get a clue. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/06/10/us/10beliefs.html
you are not supportive of ‘equality’ you are supportive of denying the rights of christians (we all know you would never dare say anything to the muslims) who oppose gay marriage…

There is no homosexual agenda other than being equal. I don’t want to be part of some victim-class. I don’t want affirmative action, nor reparations.
It just amuses me greatly that you pick sins out of your holy book because ‘gay’ makes you uncomfortable.

As for the goal of being “accepted” in everyday life – sure, why not? no one is going to willingly be a pariah if they can do something about it – why would you expect them to just bite their tongue and ACCEPT being a second class citizen, or worse, an untouchable that it is acceptable to mock, deride, and even attack as the mood suits you? what if you were a Christian in, say, Iran – or China – would you think it your place to just accept that you are a pariah and keep your mouth shut about it?

If that were their agenda, I’d have no problem with it. Sadly, it goes MUCH further. Take marriage. Marriage is the union of a man and a woman. Man-man or woman-woman can be described as a relationship, but it’s not marriage. Swimming is moving through water. You can lay down in the sand and make the same motions, but if you do, it’s NOT swimming.
Homosexuals don’t want to just be treated decently. They want acceptance. They want the general public to condem anyone that comes out against homosexuality. If they’re not stopped, I look for laws that will make any disparaging remark against homosexuality a Hate Crime.
The Bible and 10,000 years of human culture tell us that homosexuality should be discouraged, at the very least. Do you believe in God or do you believe in Man?

MarketsClear
Posted on June 21, 2011 at 9:54amI would encourage you to read Leviticus in context and to research some of the original words used. For instance, “abomination” is how they translated the hebrew “toevah.” However, if we look at how “toevah” is used elsewhere in the old testament, it does not connote abomination or sin, more of a cultural taboo or something that sets a culture apart. The Egyptians had “toevahs” that were acceptable for the Jews and the Jews had “toevahs” that were acceptable for the Egyptians.
Remember that your NIV or whatever translation you use is just that, a translation. When translating from ancient hebrew or greek, many of the connotations are lost and some words can be translated several ways into English and the writer’s intent is obscured. To believe that you can just pick up a Bible and understand the will of God based on a literal modern day understanding of the words is extremely naive.

Posted on June 20, 2011 at 6:38pmThe big push is to get “Gay Marriage” legalized. IF THEY DO, within 5 years, look for laws that will make it a Hate Crime to make ANY disparaging remark about homosexuality. In fact, they’ll probably make it a hate crime to use the word “homosexual”.
The Bible and 10,000 years of human culture tell us that homosexuality should be discouraged, at the very least. Getting homosexuality to be accepted as “normal” in America has been part of the Communist plan since the 1950s. Since they know that Capitalism creates a much higher general standard of living that Socialism does, they have to make Capitalism less productive. Lowering our moral standard is part of the effort to advance the Communist agenda. Get rid of God and the Family and the society will collapse.

I know the next thing out of most peoples mouth is “next comes man&animal marriage”… ’cause of course I want so badly to marry my lawnmower too. Perhaps gays would defend marriage?

Posted on June 20, 2011 at 8:01pm“Marriage is a religous term,”
Not once it was given over to government usage. the first time there was a civil marriage, recognized by law but endorsed by no church, THAT was when you lost the exclusivity of marriage as a religious term because we all well know that our government is not authorized to conduct religious rites.
I would very much LIKE to see marriage become a religious term again, and all marriages which are recognized by law codified by a government action which is NOT called “marriage” – but the problem with that is the vast majority of religious people LIKE having the government support their religion (a thoroughly unChristian idea but still) so that won’t ever happen.
the reason Gays will eventually have the right to marry under the law is not because THEY are obsessed with the word “marriage” – though some are – but because religious folks can’t bear to get the government out of their religious practices as they ought to. Thus civil marriage continues to exist – and as long as CIVIL marriage does exist, it is discriminatory to deny CIVIL marriage to any couple without good reason – and “I don’t believe in it“ does not constitute ”good reason.”
Not unless you live in a theocracy.
