The propagation of a new set of moral values is visible everywhere. We often hear and read about tolerance, diversity, plurality, self-identification, openness, respect for others. They teach us to be patient, open, and celebrate differences; they claim that to be different, being "other" is good, that everyone should be themselves without being worried about how others perceive them. Identity is subjective and has nothing to do with science, or biology or physical characteristics. Diversity is the key to our future; it is often asserted. All this seems quite good and nice. There is nothing wrong with being open and tolerant, but what is the purpose of such teachings? What stands behind it nowadays?1

Some suspicions emerge after we see that among the promoters of these new values, there are some LGBT activists. They actively promote the idea that we should be tolerant of all people with "different sexual orientations" and even to people who want to change their gender. As LGBT activists say, these people have chosen their own way of living, and we should tolerate it, even though they don't tolerate or accept themselves.

In the current work, we will pay heed, especially to them and their arguments and theories. We will employ philosophical and theological arguments but will refer mainly to common sense and practice. We will analyze LGBT ideology in some of its dimensions; we will not cover all of them since this is impossible. We will avoid political discussions here in order to save time for philosophical argumentation.
