[AP] - Chicago is hoping its new $20 million "gay community center" on
the North
Side, which officially opened this month, will make it a destination
for homosexuals, The Associated Press reported.
The 65,000-square-foot, eco-friendly facility has a computer lab,
office space for community organizations, a theater, a gym, a Whole Foods
supermarket and a rooftop garden named for Mayor Richard M. Daley.
At the ribbon-cutting ceremony this month, Daley called the facility
"an inspiration."
Caleb Price, a research analyst for Focus on the Family, said the
center illustrates the deception of homosexual activists who regularly
present themselves as a "disadvantaged community."
"However, with this new $20 million gay community center in Chicago we
see more evidence that, in fact, the homosexual community is one of the
wealthiest, most privileged and powerfully influential groups in the
country," he said. "Yet they continue to demand special rights and
recognition from society at large � all based on their self-identification
with sexual behavioral preferences. This is truly astonishing � and
sobering � to those who hold to a Biblically orthodox view of God's created
intent for human sexuality."
