AFTAH Interview with Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt – Part One and Two
December 29, 2010

AFTAH Staff — AFTAH Online

This interview with Gordon James “Chaps” Klingenschmitt [click HERE to listen] was pre-taped and aired Christmas day, 2010. Chaps is founder of the “Pray in Jesus’ Name Project,” named after his much-publicized struggle to pray in Jesus’ name in public and without restrictions as a U.S. Navy Chaplain — which cost him his career in the service. Chaps, a graduate of the Air Force Academy, discusses his work reaching men and women for Christ in the Navy — including an “exorcism” involving a woman who overcame lesbianism. AFTAH President Peter LaBarbera commends Klingenschmitt for his yeoman’s work in mobilizing tens of thousands of Americans to fight the Democrat-led, lame-duck congressional effort to repeal the ban on homosexuals in the military. Chaps discusses God’s view of homosexuality as sin, and says his biggest disappointment among Senate Republicans who joined the Democrats in ending the homosexual ban was Mark Kirk — the new Illinois Senator who quickly alienated conservatives in his own state by voting for the repeal. Part Two of this interview will air in January.

 

**UPDATE 1/31/11: Part Two of our interview with “Chaps” Gordon Klingenschmitt of the Pray in Jesus Name Project. This was pre-recorded and aired Jan. 22, 2010 on WYLL-AM 1160 in Chicagoland. This is the second of a two-part interview. AFTAH President Peter LaBarbera and Chaps discuss the next steps in the debate over “homosexualizing” the U.S. military — following the lame-duck congressional repeal of the ban against homosexual servicemembers. They discuss the prospects of Republicans in Congress making a serious move to thwart or reverse the implemtation of the new plan to open up the Armed Forces to open homosexuals. Chaps also rebuts left-wing accounts that accuse him of deceit in his public efforts as a then-Navy chaplain to “pray in Jesus’ name.”

40 million to Congress: Leave 'Don't ask, don't tell' alone

40 million to Congress: Leave ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell’ alone
December 2, 2010

Bob Unruh — World Net Daily

Organizations representing 40 million Americans have delivered a message to Congress that this is no time to make changes to the military’s practice known as “Don’t ask, don’t tell,” which forbids open homosexuals in the ranks but allows them to stay if they keep their lifestyle choice to themselves.

“It is a serious risk to national security to repeal DADT without first investigating thoroughly – in public hearings – the effect of the proposed repeal,” says a letter, dated today, that has been dispatched to members of the U.S. Senate. “We are engaged in a war on many fronts. Our troops are in harm’s way in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere.

“This is no time to experiment with social engineering of the military,” the letter said.

The letter, which has been posted at the Freedom Federation website, is signed by those whose groups represent some 40 million Americans.

Specifically, the request is that senators not repeal “Section 654, Title 10, U.S.C (1993), which is usually mislabeled by the subsequent executive policy known as ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell.'”

The signers “represent some of the largest multi-racial, multi-ethnic, and multi-generational faith-based and policy organizations in the country, with approximately 40 million constituents combined.”

The letter, addressed to members of the Senate, says, “We urge you and other elected leaders to use your standing as members of the Senate to prevent the rush to repeal…”

Such a move “would change our military in ways we cannot yet measure or understand,” the letter says.

“Our military leaders – with the exception of Adm. Mike Mullen – understand this and object to the repeal. In fact, Gen. James Amos, Commandant of the Marine Corps, said that he was concerned that the repeal of the law would have a negative effect on unit cohesion and combat readiness of the Marine Corps. Who among the members of the Senate is a better judge of that than is the commandant?”

Further, “We are also gravely concerned about the effect that repealing DADT will have on religious freedom. One senior army general, Lt. Gen. Thomas Bostick, said that those who oppose repeal are guilty of unacceptable attitudes that he reportedly described as ‘bigotry,'” the letter said.

“It is conceivable that chaplains will be forbidden to preach or speak about their denomination’s position on homosexuality.”

Shoving the changes through at this point, during a lame-duck session of Cognress and without hearings, “is a slap in the face of the American peole who are tired of bully politics.”

The military’s survey of the issue has been promoted by those supporting open homosexuality as approving of their plan.

But critics challenge whether the survey was a fair assessment of soldiers’ attitudes, suggesting it was designed to arrive at the conclusion preferred by the Obama administration, which quashed opposing views.

“When this study was first announced, Lt. Gen. Mixon, the commander of our forces in the Pacific, publicly encouraged soldiers to speak out on the issue. He was told in no uncertain terms to shut up or get out of the service,” reported a former Marine combat officer and Army lawyer.

Christian Groups React to Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Repeal

Christian Groups React to Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Repeal
December 20, 2010

Jennifer LeClaire — Charisma Magazine

In the wake of the U.S. Senate repealing former President Bill Clinton’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” rule, Christian voices from a wide swath of denominations are protesting the decision.

The Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell restricts United States military from efforts to discover or reveal gay, lesbian or bisexual members or applicants. The military still bans applicants who are openly homosexual or bisexual.

Eight Republicans and independent Joe Lieberman agreed with the Democratic Party to repeal the legislation by a 65-31 margin last week. President Barack Obama is expected to sign the bill into law before the end of 2010.

“Gay and lesbian service members—brave Americans who enable our freedoms—will no longer have to hide who they are,” Obama said in an e-mailed statement to supporters. “The fight for civil rights, a struggle that continues, will no longer include this one.”

Alliance Defense Fund (ADF) Litigation Counsel Daniel Blomberg says the Senate’s cave-in to pressure from activists to impose homosexual behavior on our military will place our troops’ religious liberties in unprecedented jeopardy.

“Indeed, the first official casualty of this hurried vote may well be the religious freedom of chaplains and service members,” Blomberg says. ”No Americans, and especially not our troops, should be forced to abandon their religious beliefs. We hope that our nation’s leaders will work to ensure that none of our soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines are ever made to choose between serving their country or obeying their God as result of this damaging policy decision. And ADF stands ready to defend service members if they are ever unconstitutionally required to make that choice.”

After delivering 205,000 fax petitions to Congress against open homosexual service in the military, former Navy Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitt called on the new Congress to pass strong laws protecting the rights of Christian troops—and chaplains—to openly speak their opinions about what the Bible calls sin, to refuse common showers, sleeping quarters and “social re-education” without repercussion.

Klingenschmitt says, “If free speech and free religion rights of Christian chaplains and troops are not protected, then the military is not ready to certify or implement repeal, and will quickly begin to persecute good people of Christian conscience.”

Press Release: Open Homosexuality Forced Upon Military 65-31 Senate Vote

After delivering 205~000 fax petitions to Congress against open homosexual service in the military~ Chaplain Klingenschmitt said this about the Senate’s 65-31 vote to force open homosexual aggression upon our troops by repealing "Don’t Ask~ Don’t Tell" :

"A chaplain friend of mine asked God this week~ ‘why do you allow evil to grow in America~ and open homosexuality to be forced upon our military?’   To which God answered him from Psalm 92:7:  ‘When the wicked spring as the grass~ and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is so that they shall be destroyed for ever.’ 

"Homosexual sin will always be a stench in the nostrils of Almighty God~ an abomination which God condemns and shall punish with everlasting destruction.  Even if the Senate had voted 100 to 0 to legalize sin~ they could not remove God from His throne of Judgment~ before which every knee shall bow~ and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. 

"I hereby call upon the new Congress to never certify that the military is ready to implement repeal of Don’t Ask~ Don’t Tell~ and instead pass strong laws protecting the rights of Christian troops (especially chaplains) to openly speak their opinions about what the Bible calls sin~ to refuse common showers~ sleeping quarters and ‘social re-education’ without repercussion~ guaranteeing religious freedom even outside of chapel services.  If free speech and free religion rights of Christian chaplains and troops are not protected~ then the military is not ready to certify or implement repeal~ and will quickly begin to persecute good people of Christian conscience.

"I also hereby invite my own network of up to 125~000 patriot pastors across America~ to whom I have~ and shall again fax free voter guides before the November 2012 election~ to mobilize Church voters to throw out these 25 pro-homosexual Senators up for re-election in 2 years:  Snowe (R-ME)~ Scott Brown (R-MA)~ Ensign (R-NV)~ James Webb (D-VA)~ Nelson (D-NE)~ Nelson (D-FL)~ McCaskill (D-MO)~ Tester (D-MT)~ Conrad (D-ND)~ Sherrod Brown (D-OH)~ Casey (D-PA)~ Feinstein (D-CA)~ Carper (D-DE)~ Akaka (D-HI)~ Cardin (D-MD)~ Stabenow (D-MI)~ Klobuchar (D-MI)~ Menendez (D-NJ)~ Bingaman (D-NM)~ Gillibrand (D-NY)~ Whitehouse (D-RI)~ Cantwell (D-WA)~ Kohl (D-WI)~ Lieberman (I-CT)~ Sanders (I-VT)."

AFTAH's LaBarbera Applauds Senate Vote to Block Repeal of Military's Homosexuality Ban

AFTAH’s LaBarbera Applauds Senate Vote to Block Repeal of Military’s Homosexuality Ban
December 9, 2010

Christian Newsire

MEDIA ADVISORY — (AFTAH), issued the following statement about the Senate’s vote to prevent a vote on a Defense Authorization bill containing a measure that would allow open homosexuals to serve in the United States military:

“We are gratified that enough Senators acted to prevent a lame-duck vote to effectively homosexualize the American military — a Democratic-led effort that is all about Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), President Obama and the Democrats pandering to their ‘gay’ activist base and NOT keeping our military strong, nor defending the best interests of our fighting men and women. We applaud Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin (WV) for having the courage to listen to his West Virginia constituents — rather than kowtow to the morally-compromised Democrat Party leadership — in voting with the Republicans to block consideration of bid to repeal the Armed Force’s common-sense homosexuality ban.

“The anti-Christian Human Rights Campaign, a homosexual lobby group, is now pushing for a separate, stand-alone Repeal bill in its desperate bid to homosexualize the U.S. military in this lame-duck session, before a more conservative Congress arrives in January. HRC in its elitism and arrogance shows its contempt for America’s voters, who rejected Obama’s radical legislative agenda. AFTAH will continue to educate citizens on this radical Repeal effort, which would turn the Pentagon into the world’s largest pro-“gay” advocacy organization. We are asking citizens to contact their Senators and urge them to oppose any attempt to overturn the military’s homosexuality ban.

“Americans For Truth commends the Center for Military Readiness, Family Research Council, Chaps Klingenschmitt, and all the pro-family groups that contributed to this legislative victory — even though they lacked significant help from some ‘big names’ in the conservative movement and conservative media. We must remain vigilant — because if Obama and Sen. Reid succeed in repealing the homosexuality ban, it will devastate our military, lead to an exodus of Christian- and tradition-minded servicemembers from the military, and serve as a catalyst for America’s continued moral decline.

‘Gay rights’ and religious freedom (defense of Judeo-Christian morality) cannot co-exist — as the persecution of Christians who oppose homosexuality in America and the world over clearly demonstrates — so we can only deduce that they will not be able to co-exist in a ‘homosexualized’ military. The military would bring in scores of pro-homosexual activists to effectively ‘re-educate’ the troops in pro-gay ‘tolerance and diversity’ — the very same LGBT activists that regularly demonstrate their anti-religious bigotry and animus by falsely equating the defense of biblical sexual morality with ‘hate’ and ‘homophobia.’ The introduction of pro-‘gay’ propaganda into the military would undermine morale and cohesion in the Armed Forces.

“Obama and Defense Secretary Robert Gates have acted imperiously, as if the Repeal were inevitable. It is not. Commander-in-Chief Obama didn’t even have the decency and integrity to ask servicemembers IF the homosexuality-ban should be lifted — instead directing military leaders to design a plan for HOW the Repeal could be carried out. Why is it that our servicemembers are expected to die for their country — but not even given the courtesy of being asked their views on whether this critically important policy shift should go forward in a time of war?”

Appeals Court Hears Prop 8 Gay “Marriage" Case

Let Us Pray.  Almighty God~ we pray for the judges now hearing an appeal about Proposition 8~ which may ultimately impact and redefine the institution of traditional marriage in all fifty states.  We pray for Judges Reinhardt~ Smith and Hawkins who have now heard this appeal and will make the final decision.  From James 1:5 we pray that You would grant Your wisdom to each judge~ and cause them to rule justly and in accordance with our Constitution and the will of the people in California who twice voted against sod omite “marriage.”  In Jesus Name~ Amen.

Victory! Homosexual Bonus Pay Banned in Texas

Let Us Pray.  Almighty God~ we thank you for the work of Pastor Tom Brown who organized a ballot measure in El Paso Texas~ which passed with 55% of voters voting to deny homosexuals special benefits in the workplace.  Now the sod omite community is upset because they lost their bonus pay~ so they’re now falsely claiming traditionally married couples will be penalized.  Lord~ we praise You for this victory and ask You would bless those who stood for righteousness~ because we know from Proverbs 29:2 that when the righteous rule~ people rejoice~ but when the wicked rule the people groan.  In Jesus Name~ Amen.

Illinois Legislators Force Homosexual Civil Unions on Public

Let Us Pray.  Almighty God~ we pray You condemn the lack of moral and biblical conviction in Illinois~ where the legislature just passed Senate Bill 1716 that will legalize civil unions and grant these unions the same status as marriage in state law.  We are grieved by this sin~ and we ask forgiveness for the way so many in our government have disobeyed Your moral law.  Even the fifth commandment in Deuteronomy 5:16 says to “honor your father and mother” which is evidence God never defines marriage between two people of the same gender.  In Jesus Name~ Amen.

And he will be called Wonderful Counselor~ Mighty God~ Everlasting Father~ Prince of Peace~” in Jesus Name~ Amen.

‘Tis the Season to Steal the Baby Jesus from Nativity Scenes

Christianity Arguably the Most Persecuted Religion in the World

Let Us Pray.  Almighty God~ we remember John 15:20 when Jesus said~ “’No servant is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me~ they will persecute you also…” as we consider new evidence that shows that Christianity is the most persecuted religion in the world.  Persecution Ministries reports that 200-230 million believers are under the threat of torture~ imprisonment~ murder~ and beatings daily and that 350-400 million Christians encounter discrimination at work~ while about 150~000 Christians are martyred each year. God strengthen Your people~ and use each one for Your glory~ in Jesus Name~ Amen.

The Real Pentagon Poll: 91% Reject Homosexual Leaders — 85% of Combat Marines Distrust

The Real Pentagon Poll: 91% Reject Homosexual Leaders — 85% of Combat Marines Distrust — 71% Won’t Share Showers — 24% Won’t Re-Enlist
December 1, 2010

Christian Newswire


WASHINGTON — Former Navy Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitt just read the full Pentagon report on repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, and here’s his analysis:

“Don’t believe the phony liberal media reports that 70% of troops support open homosexual service, because that statistic included ‘mixed’ feelings. A closer reading of the fine print in the newly released Pentagon survey shows our troops answered as follows:

“Q45. If you had a leader whom you believed was gay or lesbian…9% positive, 91% negative or mixed impact on unit’s performance.

“Q68c. 85% of Marine Combat Arms, 75% of Army Combat Arms, 64% overall say Negative, Very Negative, or Mixed impact on unit trust if DADT is repealed.

“Q90. 29% would take no action if assigned open showers with homosexuals. 71% would shower at other times, complain to leadership or chaplains, don’t know or do “something else” [including violence].

“Q81. 24% will leave the military or think about leaving sooner than planned. (One half million troops will QUIT the service early, destroying our national security.)

“Q80. 6% will positively recommend service to others after repeal. 94% feel negative, mixed, no effect, or don’t know about recommending military service to others. (Destroying recruiting efforts.)

“Q66. If open homosexuality impacts combat performance, is the impact…9% positive, 91% negative or mixed impact.

“Q71. 11% feel positive or very positive about permitting open homosexuality in field environment or out at sea. 60% negative or mixed. 19% no effect.

“Q73. 5% say repeal would positively boost morale. 41% say negative or mixed impact morale. Rest no effect or don’t know.

“In summary, the real statistics prove our nation faces a NATIONAL SECURITY DISASTER if Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell is repealed, and open homosexual aggression is forced upon our troops against their will.”
