“Just remember about 100 years ago, you had three homosexuals in the
world as far as anybody really knew. There was a Canadian named Robert
Ross, an Englishman named Oscar Wilde, an American named Walt Whitman.
They led the charge in the early 1900’s and wound up in and out of the
prison system and in court and so forth for a period of time. And again,
there was only about three that anybody knew of and it was hardly
anything that was mentioned among the established world at that time,
that is in Europe, Canada and America. But you did have those three men,
as far as history bears out, Robert Ross, Oscar Wilde and Walt Whitman
were well-known for some level of homosexual activity, although they
could not call themselves homosexuals at that time.
“Well now, of course, it’s the most out of the closet and the
encouragement to the homosexual lifestyle is everywhere and we have a
problem that’s probably about 10,000 times if not 100,000 times worse
than it was 100 years ago. I don’t know how far this one’s gonna go my
friends. I’m not sure the world has ever gone to homosexual marriage. I
think Nero tried it, it was very, very odd, very weird, very, very
decadent for the Roman Empire. It’s about the worst the Roman Empire
ever, ever got, under Nero. And of course the persecutions that came
with Nero were intense for the Church of Christ in Rome at that time.
Today, it might be a little different because you have a lot of
quote-unquote apostate Christian churches that have adopted
homosexuality and they will do their best to burn Christians at the
stake or do what Nero did, I’m sure, in the years to come, because
that’s sort of the history of homosexuals and what they have done ever
since they were banging on the doors outside of Lot’s house.” – Pastor Kevin Swanson, teaching Christian radio listeners about gay history. (Via Right Wing Watch)
