On a recent episode of his "Pray In Jesus Name" program, religious right activist and former Colorado state legislator Gordon Klingenschmitt and his guest, right-wing journalist Alex Newman, agreed that teaching students about LGBTQ history should be illegal.
Klingenschmitt was outraged that Colorado recently enacted legislation requiring public schools to adopt LGBTQ-friendly curriculum, claiming that it will result in teachers delivering "mandatory homosexual lectures to children."
"They're redefining all of the textbooks," he said. "It doesn't make sense. Years ago, this would be pedophiles recruiting and grooming children for their own perverse pleasure down the road. Why don't we see this as an illegal measure of recruiting children into sodomy?"
"That is exactly how we should see it," replied Newman, who is a regular contributor to the John Birch Society magazine, The New American. "Years ago, these people would have gone to prison for this sort of stuff, exposing children to obscene material, grooming children, exposing them to sexual and indecent material. That's a crime."
"The government schools all across America are still exposing the children to this stuff," he continued. "It's getting more and more obscene. And I think, quite simply, they have accomplished a radical transformation of the culture using the government school system with kind of air support from the far-left media, and from Hollyweird; the Satanic propaganda, the filth, the LGBT agenda that comes out of all of these places."
"We can already start to see what is happening," Newman added. "The breakdown of the family, skyrocketing abortion numbers, school shootings, the collapse of our society ... It is an abomination. It is a tragedy of immense proportions and, honestly, I don't think our society is going to survive another generation or two of this."
