Pennsylvania Official Charged w/ Using Position to Push Homosexual Agenda
The American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA) is accusing the Human Relations Commission in that state of overstepping its stated purpose and goals to promote pro-homosexual causes.

The pro-family group charges that Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission Chairman Stephen Glassman has been using his position to promote homosexuality as a normal lifestyle. Glassman, who is homosexual, is accused of encouraging municipalities to go beyond the law to extend special rights to individuals based solely on sexual orientation.

Diane Gramley, president of the AFA of PA, says Glassman should not be allowed to go outside the boundaries of the Commission's stated agenda, as she feels he has done lately. "He's been very active in opposing our marriage protection amendment," she notes, for example.

Also, only a couple of weeks ago, Glassman actually addressed a group of ten homosexual groups in the Lebanon Valley College, Gramley points out. "Those homosexual groups, of course, are working against passage of our marriage protection amendment," she says, "and Steve Glassman was there in his official capacity as chairman of the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission."

4. I think the gay agenda is a pretty simple.
They want to be granted the same rights, privileges and respect that everyone else gets by virtue of being American. My only question is, why are they so afraid of gays? Are their institutions so weak that if you let a few more people in they will crumble?

5. agreed -- but the afa implies an agenda
nefarious and other than that you describe -- that we all describe.

i want them to provide an actual gay agenda document.
one that fits with their outlook and i want it signed.

lets have it out -- cause they are spoiling for a real fight here.

2. What IS a family?
My Grandma was a widow at 33 who raised two children on her own. Although she had a male friend who begged her to marry him until his death, she refused to marry him and she died alone.

My Aunt was married and had a son. She divorced her husband and raised her son with her partner until he started his married and started his own family, and she and her partner grew old together.

I was married 31 years until my husband found a job in another state and left. I live with my two adult daughters.

What is a family? I consider all of the above families.

7. You were right the first time.
There is no reason to respect their name. They don't respect our lives at all. Start calling them the American Fascist Association. Regularly. All the time. That is who they are.
