Brian Camenker

 

Brian Camenker, of Massachussetts, is a hero to family people because of his successes with a state law to allow parents some control over their children's public school sex education. The powers tried to treat Brian with contempt, but they were defeated and parents empowered. This was an earthquake for the riding-high gay lobbyists; they were in control in Massachussets, at least, they used to be. What frightened the radicals was the political acumen and force of personality that brought about Brian's success. An Orthodox Jew, he reached out to everyone; Black Muslim leaders called up radio shows to say, "I will do everything I can to back Brian."
    Brian, as I write these words, just returned from a two hour radio show in Chicago, together with Linda Harvy. The show came on the same day that the Senate passed a law forcing schools to admit the Boy Scouts, perhaps the biggest victory for the family lobby in a long time. Now that the shows and media are becoming aware of the power of parents, they will continue to call Brian.
    His organization is the Parents Rights Coalition, and its website is at:
parentsrightscoalition.org
    Brian came to fame in the Fistgage scandal, when one of Brian's people got a tape of gay educators in Massachussetts teaching children the worst things about oral and anal sex, not just a "how to do it" course but "isn't it lovely" session. Brian revealed that conferences like this, featuring public employees, partially paid for with tax dollars, are teaching children about "fisting" and other painful and immoral things. For this he was sued by the gay lobby, whose lawyers are free and who receive large subsidies from the government. Brian is struggling with this legal terror, and with G-d's help will defeat the haters and radicals.
    The Parents Rights Coalition can be reached by phone at 1-781-899-4905.

 

Rabbi David Eidensohn

 

Rabbi Eidensohn, director and founder of the Gender Central website and national activists project, is an Orthodox rabbinical scholar from Monsey, NY. He studied under the senior Lithuanian scholars of the past generations, and received their approbations to his various rabbinical books on Jewish monetary and marriage law. He has written seven books and made hundreds of tapes. He is the publisher of Come to Kedusho website at www.kedusho.com, where religious people are encouraged and counselled about homosexuality and other issues.
    Rabbi Eidensohn founded "Rabbinical Court Bayis Ne'emon" to provide divorces and religious services for those without rabbis in Communist Russia and other places, under the direction of the senior rabbis of Israel. The great rabbis of America told Rabbi Eidensohn to go on radio and television to battle the radicals in the eighties and nineties. He founded Sinai Conference, a non-sectarian activist program, with Father Francis McCloskey and various Protestants. Their television show, Sinai Scene, won an award from Staten Island cable television.
    Rabbi Eidensohn ran for County Executive of Rockland County on the Right to Life line, and achieved much media publicity. At first, the media attacked him as a "Nazi" for opposing the HIV Confidentiality Laws, but eventually they media realized that Rabbi Eidensohn was not a bigot. He was invited to address the Gannet Newspapers editorial retreat in Bear Mountain, N.Y., and is consulted by the media on issues regarding the Jewish community.
    Rabbi Eidensohn has worked with America' top therapists to help sexually disfunctional and dangerous people. He has worked with troubled families, and is a student of sexology and Cabala. He believes that physics, biology and psychology reveal higher dimensions, and that today religion and science must merge, because the finite is obviously no longer that.
    Rabbi Eidensohn believes that the climate of calling bilbical people "homophobes" is dangerous; he works to stop this incitement. He sees America divided, and works to bridge the gap, by showing that religion does not make hate, and that secular solutions don't work. There must be a merging of all of the good things in life, science and religion, and not a war between them that will destroy and not build
    Rabbi Eidensohn believes that technological solutions to society's ills exist that could produce a paradise instead of what we have. These ideas have been accepted as "the wave of the future" by senior scientists at NASA and renowend computer experts.He feels that the stress on family is caused to a large degree, not just by the culture, but by the economic situation. The "biblical person" is not one who is a cog in a global wheel, a target for downsizing, with nothing to call his own. A biblical person must have security and independence, and Rabbi Eidensohn's social and technological systems can ensure these. They could produce universal education and health care.
    Rabbi Eidensohn is working now on books about family and biblical issues.

Dr. Howard Hurwitz

 

Dr. Howard Hurwitz is the dean of pro-Family activists. Even in the eighties, the tireless battler against the Gay Lobby appears constantly on the media to represent family values and gets out the message through his Family Defense Council.
    Dr. Hurwitz came to national prominence when he was a principle of a New York City public school. Refusing to violate what he felt to be his obligations as an educator, he battled New York State bureacracy and parents rallied behind him until he won. The unheard of victory of an individual against an entire government apparatus encouraged Dr. Hurwitz to devote his life to family and children, and to battle the growing power of the Gay Lobby.
    Dr. Hurwitz is an articulate speaker and writer, and has published many articles, including a book on education and his experiences as the principle of a New York school.  His profound learning and passion do credit to his speaking  or guest appearance. Dr. Hurwitz can be reached at 1-718-591-6392.
    Dr. Hurwitz, in a June 22, 2,001 letter to President Bush, urged him to stand strong on family values, and not to expand the gay influence in government. He wrote, "Gays are perhaps 20% of all homosexuals. They are two percent of the general population. They undermine traditional family values. If you do not unequivocably take action to prevent gays from gaining acceptance in your administration, you will be aligned with an abominable force in our increasingly decadent society."

 

Scott Lively

Scott Lively is uniquely qualified to speak on the topic of
Homosexuality and the Assault on the Family. A graduate (magna cum
laude) of Trinity Law School in Santa Ana, California, Scott Lively
holds the degree of Juris Doctor, with special emphasis in Human Rights,
as well as a certificate in Human Rights from the International
Institute of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France. Now a licensed
attorney, Scott is Founder and President of Abiding Truth Ministries and
Director of ATM's Pro-Family Law Center. The Pro-Family Law Center is
the nation's only legal organization devoted exclusively to opposing the
"gay" agenda.

An entertaining and highly informative speaker, Scott has been a
featured guest on more than 500 radio and television programs including
appearances on the Today Show, CNBC's The Real Story, Family News in
Focus, and the American Family Association Radio Network. He has been a
featured speaker for numerous conferences and church and community
groups in the U.S. and Great Britain.

Scott is the author of numerous books and articles on issues related to
the protection of the natural family, including the recently published
monograph Why and How to Defeat the "Gay" Movement. His most recent
full-length book, Seven Steps to Recruit-Proof Your Child: A parent's
guide to protecting children from homosexuality and the "gay" movement
is a favorite of parents' rights groups across the nation, and is used
by Focus on the Family in its seminars on this issue.

Scott's additional works include The Pink Swastika: Homosexuality in the
Nazi Party, co-authored with Jewish researcher Kevin E. Abrams, which
documents the homosexual roots of Nazism and the central role of
homosexuals in the Holocaust. Now in its third edition and published in
four languages, the official release of The Pink Swastika was timed to
coincide with Scott's speech to the National Association for the
Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH) at its annual convention
in San Francisco, July 29, 1995. In 1997 Scott published The Poisoned
Stream: "Gay" Influence in Human History, Volume One, Germany 1890 -
1945. The Poisoned Stream, Volume One is both a sequel to The Pink
Swastika and the first in an anticipated multi-volume series.

An enthusiastic born-again Christian, Scott testifies in his
presentation of having been an alchoholic and drug addict from the age
of 12 until his miraculous deliverance during prayer at age 28, and of
his subsequent transformation form transient to accomplished Christian
leader.
