The ‘Myth’ of the Homosexual
Anti-gay activist Linda Harvey is stirring up controversy yet again, by claiming this week that the ‘homosexual population’ is simply a myth.
You know, like unicorns.
It would be quite funny if she weren’t such a dedicated homophobe. Harvey formed ministry ‘Mission: America’ in 1995, which seeks the ‘blood of Jesus Christ’ in order to save America (…what?)
She has also published a number of books on the subject of homosexuality. Now, I will never advocate for the banning of books, but this material is dangerous, harmful and certainly needs to be challenged.
‘MaybeHe’s Not Gay: Another View on Homosexuality’ makes the infamous associations of homosexuality with paedophilia and bestiality. Author Harvey also claims that eating disorders are the result of homosexuality, and applauds parents who kick their LGBT children out of their homes.
Unless you are able to use it as a motivating force for your pro-equality activities, and be a strong enough person/unicorn to roll your eyes at it, I wouldn’t recommend reading this book. However, if you fancy doing a little writing of your own, Linda Harvey’s mailing address can be found online.
Enjoy.
