I agree.
It started out that supposedly all homosexuals wanted was to not be persecuted.
Then they just wanted to be "tolerated".
Then they wanted to be "accepted".
Now they want homosexuality to be considered normal and good and promoted in public schools.
The next step will be legislation making speaking against homosexuality as wrong a hate crime. That will eventually include preaching.
After that the next step will be to extend the prohibition against discrimination based on sexual orientation to churches. They will try to say a church must hire regardless of sexual orientation and cannot fire because of it.
It will be interesting to see what the church does at that time.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
