GOP Convention entertainer: Gays trying to kill our children, gays can
be cured, homosexuality is a curse, declares "war" on gays

"I'm not in the mood to play with those who are trying to kill our
children." - Donnie McClurkin, GOP Convention entertainer speaking
about gays.

Donnie McClurkin, one of the just-announced entertainers to be
performing at the GOP Convention in NYC, thinks homosexuality is a
"curse," that it's caused by men raping small children, that being gay
is a choice, that it can be cured, and most explosively, that gays are
trying to "kill our children." Big tent? Try big tent of hate.

One more thing before we get to the good stuff. The GOP Convention Web
site notes that McClurkin "is spearheading a grassroots effort to
bring about unity among churches throughout New York and New Jersey."
What the GOP doesn't tell you is that, according to the 700 Club, he's
spearheading the grassroots effort so that "Christians can have a
major voice against the homosexual agenda."

From the 700 Club (this one is particularly bad - it sounds like he's
planning to use his GOP convention appearance to help the war against
the gays):
The recent limelight on the homosexual agenda has Donnie stirred. "The
gloves are off," he says. "And if there's going to be a war, there's
going to be a war. But it will be a war with a purpose." He is very
concerned that the Christian community is not outraged at the recent
homosexual high school in New York. "This is not a privately funded
school. It is a public school funded by taxpayers' money. Why isn't
anyone else speaking out?" he asks. Donnie believes that it actually
puts the children more at risk than if they were attending a regular
high school. "Everyone knows that everyone at the high school is
homosexual. That makes for an easy target."

His main purpose, though, is to help sexually confused children. "How
do they know that they are homosexual?" asks Donnie. "If you ask them
and go back far enough, it's usually a pinpoint place." For the ones
that want help, Donnie is there for them. There are young boys who
weep at the altar. "They want help," says Donnie. "That's what I'm
there to do." The gay community is saying that Donnie is a threat and
that he is trying to convert young children or control their minds.
"I'm not in the mood to play with those who are trying to kill our
children. Someone has to be the voice for them, and the children are
only hearing one voice right now," he says.

Donnie believes this is the era for the mega-church. He says that if
the churches can get together and unite, then Christians can have a
major voice against the homosexual agenda. "There is not enough being
said. Thank God for The 700 Club - no fanfare intended. There are no
Christian programs telling the news like it is. It's time for
Christians to stand up and fight," he says.

It is Donnie's hope that by 2004 he will be able to unite 100,000
Christians to affirm their faith and allegiance to Jesus Christ using
Madison Square Gardens or the Nassau Coliseum.

From Keith Boykin:
What has made McClurkin a controversial figure is not his music, but
his preaching. Last year, his book, Eternal Victim/Eternal Victor,
explained his 20-year experience with homosexuality, which he said
started after he was raped by an uncle.

"Love is pulling you one way and lust is pulling you another and your
relationship with Jesus is tearing you," McClurkin told the media. He
now "counsels adolescent boys that homosexuality is a choice they can
overcome," according to the New York Times.

Interview with McClurkin from FamilyChristian.com:
What influenced me is seeing people, young people especially, who are
being totally decimated in their sexuality. It's amazing how we turn a
blind eye to the fact that our children are directly influenced by
what they see and what society portrays as normal living.
Homosexuality has really ravished (sic) our children. It started in my
generation. I was touched by it and I struggled with it and all that
for years and there was nobody to deal with it. I started dealing with
it in my sermons and even when we do our concerts.

I hugged a young boy in Chicago a month and a half ago. I made an
altar call for those that wanted to receive Jesus. One mother brought
her son up on stage. [He was] 11 years old, most beautiful little boy
you've ever seen. [They] stood there crying and she said, "He was
raped two weeks ago." He broke loose from his mother, grabbed me by
the waist and broke down crying. I have to do something and I can't
care about [what] the gay community [thinks]. If they want to fight,
fine, let's fight. Let's fight but know that I'm fighting to win. I
don't care about their propaganda and their agenda. The bottom line,
there's a whole slew of [people] out there that want to be delivered.
Interview with McClurkin from Charisma Magazine:

I was sexually abused and raped by this uncle, and it caused great
hurt and confusion in my life for many years to follow... a seed had
been planted--a seed of homosexuality that I would struggle with for
many years to come. I was not born with these sexual tendencies. It
wasn't chromosomal and had nothing to do with my DNA. These tendencies
surfaced because a broken man thrust an 8-year-old boy into this
whirlwind. Thus my first sexual relationship was with a man. Before I
could ever know the purpose or pleasure of a woman, have my first date
or even my first kiss, the wound was inflicted, and the seed was
planted.... I was 13 when I was sexually molested again. This time it
was by my uncle's son, Clarence Jr. If the seed of homosexual lust and
desire was planted with my uncle, it was surely fertilized and deeply
rooted with his son's sexual violation of me....

But it wasn't long before I discovered that there were many more in
the church with these problems who wanted to be free but had to remain
silent because this was a taboo issue. They came to church week after
week, looking and yearning for deliverance from this desire. They,
like myself, were thrust into this before they had a choice in the
matter by someone who took advantage of them....

I discovered that there were vultures also in the church--predatory
men who would soon attempt to take advantage of a broken boy and his
confusion. My world of security was invaded when other broken men, in
need of healing, revealed their secret lifestyles and introduced me to
a deceptive underworld in the church....

They would pray with me, talk with me, and a few of them--Sister Kitty
Braizley in particular--would even teach me how to carry myself like a
man. When I wanted to sing soprano, they'd say things like, "Get some
bass in your voice!" or, "Men don't sing soprano!" Sister Braizley
even taught me how to walk. If I held my hand up in a feminine way,
she'd hit it and say: "Put your hands at your side. Men don't hold
their hands like that!"

...They were thrust into homosexuality by neglect, abuse and
molestation....

....There are many more things that need to be done to break the curse
of homosexuality.
