Senior defense leader says the US military leads in social change…<\/em><\/p>\n

Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Military Community and Family Policy Rosemary Freitas Williams was the keynote speaker for the American Military Partner Association’s “inaugural gala.” The AMPA is a homosexual advocacy that has lobbied for “homosexual rights” — and, more recently, those of “transgenders.”<\/p>\n

Williams wholeheartedly endorsed the AMPA’s advocacy for homosexuality in the US military [emphasis added]:\u00a0 <\/p>\n

Williams said AMPA and similar groups are among the new generation of pioneers within the ranks of military and veterans service organizations.<\/p>\n

\u201cHistory will record your actions and your significance for all time<\/strong>,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Williams also lauded AMPA\u2019s desire for \u201cseismic change\u201d<\/strong> in family programs and community outreach, which she said is directly aligned with DOD\u2019s desire for fresh dialogue on issues of concern…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Notably, Williams also fed the fires of those who have said advocates are using the military for “social experimentation” or to advance their own social agenda when she said<\/p>\n

Throughout our nation\u2019s history, the Department of Defense has led social change<\/strong>…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The irony, if there is any, is that Williams speech has generated essentially no controversy, and the Department of Defense even released an official press article<\/a> on the event.<\/p>\n

By contrast, military and government leaders who have stood in front of audiences and similarly supported the goals of faith<\/em>-based groups (as opposed to sexuality<\/em>-based groups), or might dare to call on them<\/em> to use the military as a vehicle for “seismic change,” have been not only lambasted, but also accused of illegal activity.<\/p>\n

The notable difference, too, is that religious freedom is recognized as a human liberty and protected in the US Constitution. Not only is “sexual liberty” not<\/em>, the opposite<\/em> is actually true.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, there’s nothing technically wrong with advocating for the acceptance of open homosexuality in the military. Of course, in a world free of viewpoint discrimination, the same is true for advocating against<\/em> it.<\/p>\n

When it comes to freedom, however, some have missed the obvious irony:<\/p>\n

“I believe homosexuals should be able to serve and live openly in the US military without discrimination.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“I believe Christians should be able to serve and live openly in the US military without discrimination.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Based on some very public incidents, making one of those two statements — or trying to live them out — will earn members of the military or government a rebuke.<\/p>\n

Care to guess which one?<\/p>\n
