History
of the “Pro-family” Movement
People hold different beliefs and reservations on
matters of family and social structures.
The pro-family conservatives are the people that hold on to or encourage
the traditional family structure and the values therein. Pro-family people oppose
birth control, abortion and oppose any other structure that deviates from the
ancient family structure of father, mother, and children—they are against gay relationships
and the leading critics of LGBTQ[1]. The perception of
pro-family conservatives is that birth controls, abortion, and the LGBTQ are a threat
to the normal family structure and deviate from the normal. The pro-family have
a movement that includes the larger conservative movement and deals with
matters involving natural family and sexuality. In the united states, the
movement traces its roots to the cultural backlash to the 1960s Marxist
revolution. The revolution changed family-centered society and swapped Judeo-Christian
morality[2]. The pro-family movement could not be needed
before the 1960s since family values in the western world were overwhelmingly
on consensus. Later with the leadership of President Ronald Reagan in the 1980s,
Americans bought the idea of the pro-family movement. The 1960s revolution was
grounded on cultural Marxism of Herbert Marcuse’s Frankfort School but not in
the Marxist orthodoxy of Lenin and Stalin. The revolt did not envision a “workers
revolt” but sexual anarchy aimed at dismantling the Judeo-Christian
civilization. Judeo-Christian came as a standard liberal phrase to mean the
idea that the western values rest on the religious consensus that comprised
Jews[3]. The underground “gay”
movement, which was facing some resistance although gaining some popularity,
was the reason for the rise of the pro-family movement to counter the gay
movement. Harry Hay was the leader and the pioneer of the gay movement and was
referred to as the father of the underground army of gay activists in America. Thus
the gay movement was the immediate cause of culture wars that broke in the 1960s
and are still in play today. The
American Marxist revolution was a “sexual revolution” that succeeded in
vindicating Marcuse’s destructive vision and later became the fundamental tool
of one-world government elites for reducing the magnitude of resistance against
their domination through breaking the family-inclined society. The centered
family society is, however, the source of stability, self-sufficiency, and
strength.
The pro-family movement was under attack from the
“gays” whose primary goal was to promote heterosexual promiscuity, which
involves having sexual activity with different partners and frequently and at
the same time being indiscriminate in choosing these sexual partners[4]. Also, the gay movement
was also behind the scenes of legitimizing homosexual sodomy. Alfred Kinsey, a
homosexual activist, had this motive in his 1940s and 50s in homosexual
activism whereby they attacked marriage-based sexual ethic and termed it as
socially harmful and repressive. The gay movement caused the introduction of
the modern porn industry, where the first porn magazine was published by
Hefner, “Kinsey’s pamphleteer.” [5]The magazine led to court
battles, and sexual morality was systematically reformed by cultural Marxist
elites on the United States Supreme Court. Contraception was on-demand to
facilitate “fornication without consequences” A case, “Griswold v Connecticut
1966”, another case on abortion as a backup for failed contraception “Roe v
Wade 1973” and the legalization of homosexual sodomy “Lawrence v Texas 2003.”[6]
There was a wide gap where there was silence between
“Roe v Wade” and “Lawrence v Texas which was achieved as a result of the
election of Reagan, and that was the begging of the rise of the Pro-family
movement and became a major political force. There is the need to understand
that the real course of the cultural war is the supreme court, although street
activism is my work. By 1981 Reagan had managed to make the Marxist near-collapse
in matters nation’s family and the economic infrastructure. Also, the force of
LGBT had been hit hard when Reagan appointed Antonin Scalia to the supreme
court. With the help of Scalia, Reagan stopped the sexual revolution in its
tracks, thus making the pro-family movement begin restoring family values in
the country and has diligently been restored.[7] Elites prevented Reagan
from installing a second Scalia, Robert Bork, and was compelled by unparalleled
political “borking” and wanted to fill the seat with Antony Kennedy. Antony Kennedy
is to be blamed for the dysfunctional state of the family in the united states;
he was culturally destructive[8]. Kennedy wrote the
majority in all five SCOTUS opinions that established homosexual cultural
supremacy in the united states and still operating today. One of the
significant decisions that he Kennedy made was the “unconstitutional Obergefell
v Hodges (2015) gay marriage decision.”[9]
The Future of Pro-Family movement
It is worthy to admit that after Obergefell, the pro-family has lost the culture war, although there is still hope, and it is not only to claim the loss grounds for the pro-family movement but probably a rehearsal of the gains that have been gained by the movement over the past 50 years. There is the possibility of restringing the place of the natural family...
