Insurance provider grants ‘family’ status to lesbian couple

Jeff Johnson – OneNewsNow – 8/15/2008 8:45:00 AM

Pro-family advocates say the choice by a New York insurance carrier to grant “family” benefits to a homosexual couple “married” in Canada is further evidence of the decline of morality in corporate America.

BlueCross BlueShield of Western New York made the decision after the New York Civil Liberties Union filed suit on behalf of an insured lesbian who sought coverage for her partner and the partner’s infant daughter. Peter LaBarbera, president of Americans for Truth About Homosexuality, says this is the sad reality of effective homosexual propaganda and activism.

“The very fact that BlueCross BlueShield capitulated so easily, that doesn’t say much for them as a company,” said LaBarbera. “At one point in society, companies were more moral. Now we see companies leading the amoral rush to fund and subsidize and benefit so-called homosexual ‘marriages’ and homosexual-led ‘families’….”

Though LaBarbera decries the company’s decision to cave to pro-homosexual pressure, he says his greatest concern is for the child being raised in a homosexual household. “I fully believe that these two women love that child, love that baby. But the sad fact is that baby is growing up in a home which is intentionally fatherless, by design — and that’s wrong,” he argues. “And that’s going to handicap that baby’s life as she grows up. She needs a dad.  And a ‘replacement dad’ — be it an uncle or some friend, some male friend that these women have — can never substitute for her having a father.”

Extensive social science research shows that children raised by a married mother and fathers typically perform better academically and economically, and are healthier and better adjusted than those raised in what society is referring to as ”alternative” households.

San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge

A San Francisco city and county board resolution that officially labeled the Catholic church’s moral teachings on homosexuality as “insulting to all San Franciscans,” “hateful,” “defamatory,” “insensitive” and “ignorant” will be challenged tomorrow in court for violating the Constitution’s prohibition of government hostility toward religion.

Resolution 168-08, passed unanimously by the City and County of San Francisco Board of Supervisors two years ago, also accused the Vatican of being a “foreign country” meddling with and attempting to “negatively influence (San Francisco’s) existing and established customs.”

It said of the church’s teaching on homosexuality, “Such hateful and discriminatory rhetoric is both insulting and callous, and shows a level of insensitivity and ignorance which has seldom been encountered by this Board of Supervisors.”
