Gay Activists Bully Apple To Get Christian iPhone App Removed

Gay Activists Bully Apple To Get Christian iPhone App Removed

What is all this talk about bullying lately? Liberals are so concerned about bullying and are busy accusing others of it in order to hide their own bullying tactics. Did not Jesus have something to say about judging someone else while you are guilty of doing the same thing?

1 “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. Matthew 7:1-5

This is most evident when it comes to the Liberal push to normalize homosexuality. Now a Christian app for the iPhone is under attack since it offers hope to the homosexuality community. From the Christian Post:

An online activism website has collected over 2,600 signatures within a few days to petition Apple Inc. for the removal of the iPhone app of a Christian ministry dealing with homosexuality.

Exodus International, which bills itself as the world’s largest Christian ministry dealing with homosexual issues, reported that a petition by the LGBT rights group Truth Wins Out on Change.org is quickly gaining support. In less than 24 hours, the petition was able to gather more than 1,300 signatures.

Truth Wins Out contends that the app conveys the ministry’s “hateful and bigoted” message.

“They claim to offer ‘freedom from homosexuality through the power of Jesus Christ’ and use scare tactics, misinformation, stereotypes and distortions of LGBT life to recruit clients,” reads the petition.

Critics of Exodus also blasted the ministry’s use of reparative therapy, calling it “bad medicine” and “very damaging” to the self-esteem and mental health of people struggling with same-sex attraction…

And what are these scare tactics and misinformation they referring to? The fact that gay men get HIV/AIDS at a rate 44 times that of straight men? Or the fact that gay men are deliberately not using condoms and even in some extreme cases want to spread HIV/AIDS by having unprotected sex? Why would we not want to offer hope and a way out of such a destructive lifestyle?
