Good question—it’s a relativley new term, but it is meant to distinguish someone who practices homosexuality from those (who may or may not be homosexual themselves) who seek to promote a homosexual ideology.

Organizations like GLAAD or publications like The Advocate would fall into the homosexualist camp.

I appreciate your comments, and your readership, but I’ll have to stand my ground and disagree. Mc Greevey’s resignation was not a voluntary act. His ex-lover was about to sue him for $5 million, so it was more damage control than contrition. McGreevey was gone whether or not resigned. He had procured a $110,000 per year state-funded job for his lover, among other things.

With regard to him being a hero to the gay community, I’m far from presumptuous—it’s already begun. If you don’t believe me, check here, here and here for some intitial reactions from the homosexualists that give McGreevey a herioc stature.

Believe me, I like to give people the benefit of the doubt, but I’ve been around politics (and people) long enough to know a sham when I see one. A man who brings his wife and his father to participate in his own public humiliation is not one I’m given to believe. Why not answer alone for what he was alone responsible?

Compassion warrants that justice be served, not mocked. All things do work together for good for those who love God (to correct McGreevey’s assesment of Romans 8:28), but this doesn’t mean that all situations are good. God is indeed a redeemer, but in order for something to be redeemed, it must first be lost. McGreevey, as it is, appears to stand squarely in the “lost” category. We can only pray that God moves him to the other.

“we Christians must point out who much more sinful than he already sees?”

Should read,

“we Christians must point our how much more sinful his actions were than he already sees?”

I think you are being presumptuous about him being a hero to the gay community. Why is it that we Christians must point out who much more sinful than he already sees? He believes what he did was shameful. He stepped down from office. Not only that, but he recognizes the Right’s sacred cow value of one’s personal life affecting one’s public life.

I applaud him for this.

But this kind of rhetoric reveals the typical Evangelical assumption that homosexuals are filled with nothing but arrogant pride in a self-absorbed agenda. What really happened is that a man finally confronted who he was– a gay American… who was married and had an affair. He realized what the consequences.

If we believe that God works all things for a higher good (as the former governor says he believes) than maybe, just maybe God is getting a hold of his life.

Just trying to say have some compassion.

Blessings.

I’m not quite sure what you’re getting at. Most gays align themselves quite proudly and vocally with the left, and the homosexualist movement is anything but traditional or conservative. There’s no obsession here—just observation.
