Has the Salvation Army Called off its War Against Homers?

[Johny Joe Hold]

I've always dumped some pocket change into the Red Kettles at Christmas time. I know the homeless people do not disserve a dime of my money. I did it because the Salvation Army has been firm in its position against homers, "They sin. We don't hire them."

Now, I'll be keeping my change. The Salvation Army is now saying, "We hire the most qualified candidates for every job."

This does not mean they are hiring homers--but I want them to say it the right way, "We don't hire homers." I not tossing in another dime until they say what they mean.

Mayor, the Salvation Army has a noble history in protecting the rights of normal people.

• When New Zealand considered passage of the Homosexual Law Reform Act in 1986, the Salvation Army collected signatures in an attempt to get the legislation killed. The act decriminalized consensual sex between gay men. The measure passed over the charity’s objections.
• In the United Kingdom, the Salvation Army actively pushed passage of an amendment to the Local Government Act. The amendment stated that local authorities “shall not intentionally promote homosexuality or publish material with the intention of promoting homosexuality” or “promote the teaching in any maintained school of the acceptability of homosexuality as a pretended family relationship.” The law has since been repealed, but it led many schools and colleges to close LGBT student organizations out of fear they’d lose their government funding.
• In 2001, the organization tried to extract a resolution from the White House that they could ignore local non-discrimination laws that protected LGBT people. While the commitment would have applied to all employees, the group claimed that it needed the resolution so it “did not have to ordain sexually active gay ministers and did not have to provide medical benefits to the same-sex partners of employees.” After lawmakers and civil rights activists revealed the Salvation Army’s active resistance to non-discrimination laws, the White House admitted the charity was seeking the exemptions.
• Also in 2001, the evangelical charity actively lobbied to change how the Bush administration would distribute over $24 billion in grants and tax deductions by urging the White House deny funding to any cities or states that included LGBT non-discrimination laws. Ari Fleischer, White House press secretary, issued a statement saying the administration was denying a “regulation sought by the church to protect the right of taxpayer-funded religious organizations to discriminate against homosexuals.”
• In 2004, the Salvation Army threatened to close all their soup kitchens in New York City to protest the city’s decision to require all vendors and charities doing business with the city to adhere to all civil rights laws. The organization balked at having to treat gay employees equal to straight employees.

I pray they stay strong in the faith and remain in God's favor.

Homersexurals are God's enemies. The only reason I haven't been raped by one is because I am homeschooled.
