Revision as of 23:20, 9 July 2005 by Harry491 (talk | contribs) (wording, NPOV)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff) 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.The gay agenda is a concept promoted by Christian fundamentalists like James Dobson] among others that gay and lesbians are "out to destroy" their "family values". Gay groups such as the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation deny any such agenda, and some religious groups supportive of gay rights such as the United Church of Christ argue that opposition to gays itself a deviation from Christ's teachings.
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, with the intention of achieving equality. Many gays and lesbians say that their only "agenda" is simply to be left alone.
