This article is about the term gay agenda. For information about the book by Ronnie W. Floyd, see The Gay Agenda: It's Dividing the Family, the Church, and a Nation. For information about the book by Jack Nichols, see The Gay Agenda: Talking Back to the Fundamentalists.
Gay activists dispute that there is a Gay agenda, but many opponents of homosexuality use the term as a political epithet.
The following quotation, from James Dobson, of Focus on the Family in his newsletter, lists the components of the so-called gay agenda:
- "For more than 40 years, the homosexual activist movement has sought to implement a master plan that has had as its centerpiece the utter destruction of the family. The institution of marriage, along with an often weakened and impotent Church, is all that stands in the way of its achievement of every coveted aspiration. Those goals include universal acceptance of the gay lifestyle, discrediting of Scriptures that condemn homosexuality, muzzling of the clergy and Christian media, granting of special privileges and rights in the law, overturning laws prohibiting pedophilia, indoctrinating children and future generations through public education, and securing all the legal benefits of marriage for any two or more people who claim to have homosexual tendencies."
Most members of the LGBT community consider their personal "agendas" to consist of much more mundane items such as paying taxes and shopping for groceries. Some consider their political goals to be too heterogeneous to be grouped together in a single "agenda." However, political goals tend to center on ending discrimination in housing, employment and public accommodations.
