Americans for Truth About Homosexuality’s Peter LaBarbera reacted last week to the news that “Star Trek: Discovery” would be featuring a gay couple by demanding to know why we “have yet to see an ex-gay, a former homosexual prominently portrayed in Hollywood.”
LaBarbera discussed the Star Trek news with VCY America’s Jim Schneider on the September 26 episode of the “Crosstalk” program, saying that the show’s decision to include gay characters is another sign that “the homosexual activists are never satisfied, they always want more, more, more.”
At the same time, he said, “We have yet to see an ex-gay, a former homosexual prominently portrayed in Hollywood.”
“I guess all we can do is not watch Star Trek,” he said, adding that “this sort of propaganda” and “political correctness” is “why Trump won in the first place.”
When Schneider asked LaBarbera what listeners could do to confront this kind of thing, LaBarbera said, “Remember, the other side never stops fighting. There is a battle between good and evil in this country.” He urged listeners to call their elected officials about enforcing Trump’s announced ban on military service for transgender people and opposing the “very, very dangerous” Equality Act, which “would make it easier for homosexual activists and liberal attorneys to persecute people of faith for opposing this juggernaut which calls itself ‘gay.’”
