"Queer Youth Advocacy Day" Held Under Major Protest By Christians
Sodomite Youth Rally Protested by Christians | March 26, 2007

Sacramento, Ca - Over one hundred Christians protested a Sodomite-organized event called "Queer Youth Advocacy Day" (QYAD) at the Capitol on Monday. Busloads of homosexual and transgender youth from around the state were brought to Sacramento by Sodomite activists to train them to actively support Sodomite legislation. According to QYAD organizer's, QYAD is a "day of lobbying, advocacy training, and educational workshops at the Capitol in Sacramento." Dick Otterstad, an Outreach Coordinator with Church of the Divide said the event "sought to make radical Sodomite activists out of sexually confused youth."

There was a heavy police force present (20+ CHP/SacPD officers), although protesters remained peaceful and no incidents occured.

One piece of legislation that the QYAD group was supporting was Senate Bill 777. The bill, authored by lesbian Senator, Sheila Keuhl, seeks to re-define the definition of "sex" in state law to no longer mean "the biological condition or quality of being a male or female human being." SB777 wants to create a new definition of gender: "Gender, means sex, and includes a person's gender identity and gender related appearance and behavior whether or not stereotypically associated with the person's assigned sex at birth." Otterstad commented, "In other words, this insane bill states that 'gender', or 'sex', no longer means male or female, as God has clearly created us. Instead, SB777 says that a confused boy who says that inside he feels like a girl and wants to be called Mary now comes under the new definition of 'gender' and is a girl." The bill also states: "No person shall be subjected to discrimination on the basis of...gender...sexual orientation." Otterstad said, "This means that noone could say anything against a boy becoming a girl, because of the new definition of gender."

"Currently the American Psychological Association and Psychology Today magazine describe this gender confusion as a psychological disorder called 'Gender Identity Disorder'," said Otterstad, "Yet this crazy bill wants to make it illegal to say anything negative about this disorder. Apparently, it would be 'hate-speech' to tell a child he has Gender Identity Disorder and that he needs help."

Around 12:00, Christians lined the sidewalks to show their opposition to homosexuality and SB777. They chanted "Don't engage in sodomy - Jesus Christ can set you free!" They also held signs reading "Sodomy is Sin", "Homosexuality Has Got To Go", "Educate, Don't Indoctrinate", "Fight Racism and Sodomy", "God Destroyed Sodom... Is Sacramento Next?", "Repent, Christ Can Set You Free!" and a sign with the universal "no" sign through "SB 777". Other signs had quotes from the Bible such as, "Woe to those who call good evil and evil good - Isaiah 5:20", "Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with woman kind; it is an abomination - Leviticus 18:22", "The Lord rained fire and brimstone upon Sodom - Genesis 19", and also the words of Jesus saying: "Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish - Luke 13:3."

Otterstad's son, Luke (holding sign to left in above photo) summed up the event by saying, "Many of the major Sodomite leaders had a strong rebuke from the word of God preached to them. The leaders of this evil group have no shame as they take advantage of sexually confused youth and turn them into God-hating pro-sodomy activists. Their purpose is to fulfill the work of the devil, to confuse youth into believing perversion is okay. Our purpose is to rebuke them with God's word and preach the soul-saving message of Jesus Christ to the lost youth being led astray."

Otterstad explained that, "the Sodomite leaders are like Elymas the Sorcerer in Acts chapter 13, they are seeking to turn others away from Christ to engage in perversion. The way Paul dealt with Elymas is recorded in verses 9-10: 'Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him. And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?' As you can see, Paul gave felt no sympathy for this wicked man as he sought to turn others away from Christ. We should follow in his example as we take the Bible's message to the streets."
