The Marketing of Evil -- Synopsis, Part I - Intro. & Gay Rights

The Marketing of Evil by David Kupelian, Cumberland House Publishing Inc., Nashville, Tennessee, 2005.

A good friend of mine recommended I read this book and provide a synopsis of it for all our readers both here and through FB. "This wasn't going to be an interesting task at all," I thought to myself, "but I'll give it a try." Once I started the book, I was amazed at what I was learning and definitely agreed with Bob that we needed to make sure others were getting the message. What I share below are some of the highlights, key findings, and observations author David Kupelian has made. I think you'll find the book a fascinating read and well worth looking into. Here we go with just some of the goodies therein:

* In his introduction, Kupelian asks, "How does child molesting become 'man-boy love'? How does crushing a baby's skull and sucking out his brains become a 'constitutional right'? How doe quoting the Bible become 'hate speech'?" Well, we certainly get to find out.

Kupelian's first chapter addresses how "Gay Rights" were literally "sold" to America.

* Did you know that AIDS was "originally named GRID (gay-related immunodeficiency disease) until activist homosexuals pressured the medical establishment to switch to the generic acronym AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome)"?

* The emerging sexual revolution political force was involved in "persuading -- many say, intimidating -- the American Psychiatric Association in 1973 into removing homosexuality from its official list of mental disorders."

* According to his references, Kupelian exposes that "In February 1988 some 175 leading activists representing homosexual groups...held a war conference...to map out their movement's future." Soon afterwards, activists M. Kirk and H. Madsen wrote "After the Ball: How America Will Conquer Its Fear and Hatred of Gays in the '90's." Their bottom line in their own words was "The campaign...though complex, depends centrally upon a program of unabashed propaganda, firmly grounded in long-established principles of psychology and advertising." And so it did, changing 'homosexual' to "gay" (after all that had a nice happy meaning earlier); and making the homosexual into a victim who now needed the love and care of the world, especially due to AIDS. Calling it Gay 'Rights' helped cement that thinking.

* Kupelian writes on the GLBT agenda: "In other words, sadomasochists, leather fetishists, cross-dressers, transgenders, and other 'peculiar' members of the homosexual community need to keep away from the tent and out of sight while the sales job is under way. Later, once the camel is safely inside, there will be room for all." It's coming folks or shall I say it is here.

* "Manipulating the emotions and thereby restructuring the thoughts and beliefs of large numbers of people is what modern marketing is all about" Kupelian writes. If straights can be taught to think homosexuality is just another thing, then legal and social rights will soon follow -- that's the thinking and it's been just like that.

* Kupelian quotes the pro-GBLT agenda authors of "After The Ball" as follows on the issue of claiming that famous historical people (Socrates, Eleanor Roosevelt, Tchaikovsky, Abraham Lincoln, and even Jesus Christ) were homosexuals: "Famous historical figures are considered especially useful to us for two reasons: first, they are invariably dead as a doornail, hence in no position to deny the truth and sue for libel. Second, and more serious, the virtues and accomplishments that make these historic gay figures admirable cannot be gainsaid or dismissed by the public, since high school history textbooks have already set them in incontrovertible cement." Amazing, isn't it?

* "1990 saw the launch of the National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association (NLGJA), which has since grown into a formidable organization." Yes, it has. Currently, NLGJA, headquartered in Washington, D.C., has 20 chapters across the country. Ever wonder why the media you read/watch/hear often seems so pro-GLBT? These groups have intentionally aimed their resources at infiltrating the media in great numbers in order to promote their agenda. You need to read their complaints about 'fairness' in the media in Kupelian's book. He also names many media networks and papers that actually sponsor NLGJA conventions.

* The classic approach "one step backward, two steps forward" does win wars. The GBLT movement is not at all discouraged by the odd loss of a "same-sex marriage" vote in a single state every once in a while.

* Teen magazine "Seventeen"'s survey in 1991 showed only 17% of adolescent readers accepted homosexuality as appropriate. After the activists decided to abandon the streets and enter the television studio, the figure jumped to 54% in 1999. Their plan works.

* While most heterosexuals devote their time and energy to "change diapers, pay for dental braces, or attend their children's soccer games", most homosexual activists have tons of time and energy to focus on their cause.

* Not long ago psychiatry, psychology, religion and common sense agreed that sexually abused young males are up to seven times more likely to self-identify as gay or bisexual than peers who had not been abused. Even the pro-gay authors write that gays "should be considered to have been born gay" and here's the give-away "even though sexual orientation, for most humans, seems to be the product of a complex interaction between innate predispositions and environmental factors during childhood and early adolescence." But they realize they have to ignore that if they are to succeed.

* Where will this whole thing end? Good question. This is not just about their "rights" -- they have lots of them and lots of freedom, and as a group they are much wealthier on average than heterosexuals (so no economic pain here). NO, this won't end until they can silence their own conscience and that of everyone else, especially Christians. They want us to be forced to shut up and discredit us, by force of law. And why is this force necessary? Because deep down, the truth is that homosexuality is not a natural behavior. They like to think their plight in life is akin to that of blacks and the '60s civil rights movement. But it is not -- being black is indeed natural. There's no comparison.

* The movement has got most of us to deny there is a problem. Once we do that, we can appease our conscience.

You'll need to read this opening chapter for yourself. Remember, the book is about "marketing evil". In the next chapter, which I'll summarize soon, is all about the way the separation of church and state has been marketed. In the meantime, buy the book. And thank you Bob for recommending it.
