Mainline-Supported Coalition Promotes Homosexual Agenda
Kathryn Davis

At the July 2006 “Summit on Black Sexuality” put on by the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Rights (RCRC), guest speakers and lecturers seemed bent on propagating a pro-homosexuality message.
Member organizations in the pro-abortion rights coalition include the Episcopal Church, two national boards of the United Methodist Church, three national offices of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), the United Church of Christ Justice and Witness Ministries, and various Jewish and Unitarian agencies. The United Methodist Church and Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) are officially opposed to homosexual practice, even though they lend their name and funding to this organization that promotes it.

In his workshop entitled “From Genesis to Revelation—Sex in the Bible,” the Rev. Madison Shockley, a United Church of Christ minister, highlighted specific passages of Scripture to support his pro-homosexuality stance. Referring to Old Testament laws prohibiting sex outside of marriage, Shockley claimed that the purpose of the “Levitical codes” was to regulate fertility. According to his reasoning, “If the culture is obsessed with fertility, same-sex sex is forbidden because it doesn’t produce offspring.” The culture of the 21st century is no longer focused on fertility, Shockley said. “Now that we have 6 billion people on the planet, fertility isn’t our primary goal for marriage.”
