What I think of "gay people"

The other day, Clint Heine of the Clint Heine and Friends blog launched a scurrilous attack on myself and this blog. When his first blog post was picked apart, he tried to make out that my reply to his false assertions was "frothing".

I really don't want to give him to much attention, as I think he enjoys it a little too much, however I do have to answer his accusation that I "hate gay people".

First off, I do my very best not to hate anyone. Every person has vices. My vices can be as dangerous to my soul as the unrepentant sex addict's vices can be to his. Vices that are not resisted tend to drown out any hope of redemption, yet that redemption nevertheless exists and is available to all who seek it. 

So, I think of the "gay person" as having sexual vices that they have succumbed to, that make it difficult for them to imagine any other way of being. I feel sad for them that this is the case, but also hopeful that God may work a miracle in their lives and maybe help them to hear His voice and take the opportunity of redemption when it is offered.

The unrepentant homosexual who is seeking to change the world into his own image so that his sexual desires are celebrated and victims are offered no matter who they are, I will oppose with every bone in my body. We are at war.  Just as in a war, you don't necessarily hate the opposing side, but will engage in an aggressive defence, because if the other side wins, you will be overwhelmed and worse, so it is in this war of ideas that has real consequences for this world, my children and our way of life.  To not fight is to give in to those consequences.  To say it's because I hate the other side is to deny those consequences.  It is to be blind and deaf and dumb,  and selfish, so that only your own desires and wants and needs are important and stuff everyone else.

Men are natural protectors.  When all is right in the world they channel that protective energy into their societies, their wives and their children.  When all is not right in the world, some will protect other men's rights to do what ever they want, in a perverse reverse of the protective instinct that should be directed towards women and children.  In doing so, they become predators, not protectors.

So we have the ultimate irony of a man (Clint) attacked a woman (me) for wanting a society in which men act like men, not narcissistic nancy boys that don't give a damn about anyone except for themselves and other men.  And so I have to become what is not natural to women, a fighter.  Which he objects to and attacks me over, rather than acting like a real man himself.

  7. It may surprise you Danyl but I don't give a toss what two consenting adults do with each other.

    For someone who supposedly knows science you are incredibly dense when it comes to understanding that if people do not have children there is no future.

    And the most important economic activity we can undertake is to ensure that there is another generation to follow us. Which is something we are not doing.

    It was well understood in the years following WW2 and government policies were constructed to encourage families and the raising of children, which is why there was the so called baby boom.

    Now the population is aging because we don't produce enough children, don't encourage families, except amongst the dysfunctional where we subsidize them.

    To encourage the traditional family and to oppose those things which undermine it is not "homophobic", it is a matter of survival as a culture and civilization.

  9. Danyl,

    Just like Andrei, I do not actually think about what men do behind closed doors, neither do I think of what men and women do behind closed doors, neither do I watch anything of that nature on TV or movies (I avert my eyes).

    Funny that it's the first thing you assume, that I must somehow be imagining all sorts of gross things and freaking out over them, therefore this post.

    I have learned, over the years how to mentally separate such stuff. Call it discipline or willpower or whatever.

    The war that I talk of is over issues .. the redefinition of marriage, for instance. Inflicting graphic sexual imagery on children. Normalisation of that which leads to eternal destruction of the body and the soul.

    The pleasures of this world are fleeting, while as we are eternal beings. It would be cruel of me not to warn my fellow humans of where they could end up, and do everything in my power, such as it is, to try and avert the path they are on.

  11. First of all, I am not at war with gay people. I am at war with the advancement of certain ideas, such as gay marriage. It's where the battle lines are, therefore it's where the fight is. Divorce gets mentioned by me every once in a while, but it's not the current battle. When things are overwhelming, when everything is imploding, you don't scatter your forces - you choose what to spend your time on.

    This is a Catholic blog, and as such we have had to respond to the crisis of abuse by certain priests. Turns out, most of the problem priests are homosexual. It's not like we are deliberately focusing on this issue, it just keeps popping up.

    What's another example .. redefinition of marriage. Who wants to do that? Gay people?

    Sex education rates a big mention here because a number of the bloggers here have children. So does the normalisation of homosexuality to children - because it affects them.

    Get it?

  12. Danyl,

    Christians are not at war with the Gay community. If that is your view, then could I suggest that they started it as they fight to hide the dirty little secrets that lie at the heart of the gay lifestyle. Note that now it is claimed that being gay is something you are born with. This is a huge seachange for the movement. Using this, the gay lobby now claim rights along with disabled and ethnic groups. It means however that being gay is a form of disablement, an abnormal condition. It is as iof they have undermined the last 30years of activisim.
    My church does preach and is very active about pre-marital sex and divorce and the spiritiual, emotional and personal costs that these entail. And it is right that we should because we owe our young people that much and that sex is not a casual thing. They have to be told that their purity is a precious thing that should not be given away too easily and that there are costs to sex outside marriage. The same equally applies to divorce. We treat it too casually.

  13. And then there's the reason this post exists. If you follow the dots (can't give them to you right now, cooking dinner). Clint Heine takes exception to me wanting to know the identity of NZ paedophiles who are high up in a world wide ring of a site called boylover, and accuses me of hating gay people. Hence this post - responding to the current battle.

    Do you Lucia Maria have "sexual vices" merely because of your orientation? Why can't you just allow other people to be who they are instead of overlaying sinfulness and proclivity? It is so mean. And quite ridiculous as well.

  15. Lindsay,

    No, I don't have sexual vices. I've only ever had sex with one man (my husband) and I don't do porn or masturbate.

    However, as explained ad nauseum now, normalisation of homosexuality is the current battle now. And I was asked what I thought of gay people - the assumption being that I wanted to ban them. How you would ban what people do, I don't know, but that was what was thought of me.

    The thing is with sex, is that it is very, very, very addictive. It's also life giving and bonding. And as such, the casual way we treat it has lead to an explosion of single women having children who have been abandoned by their lovers, children who are exposed to unnatural predators (ie the homosexual paedophiles that started this whole thing off) and a desire to reshape the fundamental building block of society for women and children - marriage - just so men who sleep with men and women who sleep with women can feel normal.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Lindsay, perhaps. So therefore you agree that porn and masturbation are sexual vices. You just can't include male-male sex in there or female-female sex.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Do you know, we Catholics have this cool thing called Confession. It's where you confess all your sins to God through a priest. And afterwards, it's as if you've never sinned - God "forgets" what you've done. That's the remedy for any person who has done things that they need to clean themselves of.

    ReplyDelete
  18. No. I agree that you think they are. Really, I am just not that bothered by it all. Sex is one aspect of a person's life. But, if it is same-sex, you want to make it the defining one.

  19. "Confession. It's where you confess all your sins to God through a priest. And afterwards, it's as if you've never sinned - God "forgets" what you've done."

    Sounds like the welfare state where you never have to live with the consequences of your own bad behaviour.

    ReplyDelete
  20. All sex outside of marriage is sinful, Lindsay. Be it through the viewing of porn, masturbation, adultery, experimenting with sex partners of either sex. Same-sex sex is not the defining one - it's just where the battle is right now. I talk about monogamous marriage alot, just not in posts recently, it's more in my roaming around on the blogosphere.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Sounds like the welfare state where you never have to live with the consequences of your own bad behaviour.

    There are consequences. It takes time to free oneself of vices. Could be years of confessin the same things again and again. And then there's Purgatory, which is like Hell, but you get to leave. It's where you pay the price for the sins you committed while on earth until your soul is clean enough for Heaven. So not quite like the welfare state. Nice try, though.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Purgatory - not quite Hotel California.

    So I have to stop off there in transit to confess all of the sex I had outside marriage. It'll be crowded.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Also, sexual sins can lead to diseases that don't go away when you go to Confession. You confess sex outside marriage in which a child was conceived - the child doesn't vanish. The consequences of what you do here on earth still have to be dealt with as well, even if the sins in God's eyes are forgotten.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Lindsay,

    All mortal sins (sexual sins fall into this category) need to be confessed before death. There are exceptions for those that don't believe, they get a last chance at death to choose God, but then there's a very long time in Purgatory, I would guess, depending on the level of culpability of the person, how much they knew what they were doing was wrong, etc. The safest thing is to do it before death - makes a huge difference. It frees you, it really does.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Here we are defining waht is "right and wrong" in sexual behaviour. In another post Lucia has spely out what (in here eyes) it menas to be a "conservative".

    Two of the biggest icons in conservative circles are pat Robertson and Roanld Reagan, both of whom married pregnant women!

    Then there's that other paragon of conservative morality, Newt Gingrich and hsi, what, 3 divorces?

    There's no question at times of my life, partially driven by how passionately I felt about this country, that I worked far too hard and that things happened in my life that were not appropriate. And what I can tell you is that when I did things that were wrong, I wasn't trapped in situation ethics, I was doing things that were wrong, and yet, I was doing it. I found that I felt compelled to seek God's forgiveness.

    That's right, Newt cheated, but its OK, he fessed upand asked god to forgive him.

    Funny, but when I did the same, but only to one wife, I sought forgiveness from my wife and children, not god.

    Humanists and rationalists have far better morals than the average god botherer.

  26. Lucia Maria, I am touched by your concern. But we seem to have gone full circle. Finally you talk about freedom. Most people want freedom, especially from prejudice and persecution, while they shuffle still on this mortal coil.

  28. Sex is one aspect of a person's life. But, if it is same-sex, you want to make it the defining one.

    No it is the Gay Lobby that wants to make it the defining one Lindsay.

    In Church we couldn't care less if someone identifies Gay or what his Sins are, We have our own burdens of sin to worry about without worrying about those of others.

    We never discuss the issue in Church at all, we discuss Sin as a general concept and as something, a sickness that applies to us all without exception.

    The proper place for discussion of particular sins is between God, the penitent and Confessor.

    And we lapse, fall back, we are a work in progress right up to the day we die.

    Most people want freedom, especially from prejudice and persecution, while they shuffle still on this mortal coil.

    And freedom they have Lindsay. Is it persecution of smokers to point out their behavior may lead to lung cancer?

    Is it prejudice and persecution to the promiscuous that their choices may lead to nasty STDs with nasty or even fatal consequences?

    If not why is it prejudice and persecution to point out that such behaviors may be placing your immortal soul in peril?

    ReplyDelete
  29. We were discussing same sex orientation which of itself does not lead to nasty or fatal consequences.

  30. 'No it is the Gay Lobby that wants to make it the defining one Lindsay.'

    Quite simple really Andrei.

    If I'm gay it pretty well defines me.

    No?

    Or would you rather I simply give up sex or whatever that urge might be?

    I'd never ask you to make that particular sacrifice but then again I'm a tolerant person....capable of love.

    All I see from you and Lucia Maria are a couple of catholic bigots completely incapable of seeing other peoples humanity because of your own fucked up sexuality and prejudices.

    Quite sad.

  31. I mean lets call it for what it is. You both dribble on about sin and compassion and vice but really you are both completely clueless about your fellow human beings.

    That's the crux of it right there. By your own definition a plurality of straight people are grave sinners, but you've made an arbitrary decision that homosexuality is 'where the fight is', even though their numbers are far smaller than all the heterosexual fornicators. Well, that's bigotry. You're singling out a vulnerable minority and claiming they're a threat to our entire society. You claim that this isn't motivated by hatred - but that's exactly what hatred looks like.

    By analogy, let's say the government announced it was going to stamp out religion in New Zealand, and it closed down all the Catholic Churches, all the Catholic schools, sacked Catholic public servants, confiscated businesses owned by Catholics, and so on - but left protestants, muslims, hindus ect untouched, arguing that Catholicism was 'where the battle lay', would you accept that as a reasonable argument?

    ReplyDelete
  34. That's a flawed analogy Danyl.

    Lucia specifically said she is not advocating to make homosexuality illegal, so you pretending the government is going communist is a hysterical reaction to what she actually said. You sound like Richard Dawkins.

    What she is arguing against is the redefinition of marriage. That's not saying homosexuals cannot get jobs, live with whoever they want, go clubbing whenever they want and do what ever they want in the privacy of their bedrooms.

    Is it bigotry if you argue that pederasts should not follow their natural urges, as Ackers seems to think? Or would you rather I simply give up sex or whatever that urge might be?

    Would you be a bigot if you were inclined not to agree with a lobby arguing to lower the age of sexual consent from 18 to 16, or 16 to 15? Would you be a prude for arguing that it be raised to 18 where the relationship is one of power (such as a teacher)?

    You haven't made a reasonable argument, so there is no reason to accept it.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I have got exactly what I wanted from you Lucia Marie. A confession. Thank you for shooting yourself in the foot.

    And you have confessed to be nothing more than a left wing zealot. You do a post calling her a pedophile, and supporter of pedophiles, so you can get her to say she thinks homosexuality is a sin, something she has always said in any event. The ends always justify the means with you lot don't they?

    ReplyDelete
  36. Lindsay,

    The "orientation" is not sinful. The acts are. So a person who has urges, but never indulges in them or acts upon them never commits a sin.

    Ackers,

    You are a married man, are you not? You don't need to give up sex, you just need to stop committing adultery, whatever your urges are. Are you a man or an animal?

    Heine,

    It's like having a conversation with the village idiot.

    Okay, but that takes me back to my original point. Marriage has already been redefined away from the Catholic ideal, into one in which no-fault divorce is common, so much so that the amount of people getting divorced is much, much larger than the amount of people having gay sex. Lucyna doesn't worry about this because it's 'not where the battle is'. Why not?

    ReplyDelete
  38. I do worry about it, Danyl. My focus is on training both my boys to be chaste, so that when they find the woman they want to marry, they will be faithful to her. I have also counselled them to try and fall in love with a girl from an intact family, as those from separated families don't know how to make a marriage work.

    I haven't blogged much about this because of lack of time over the last few years, but I do comment about it here and there in the blogosphere, as I said to Lindsay.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Lucia Marie, you and your values are right out of the stone ages. I feel sorry for your kids. Imagine them having to be taunted at school because they were brainwashed to believe that there are such things as second class citizens out there.

    Haven't found the time? Isn't there a war on? Isn't the existence of marriage, and our very civilisation at stake? Or is that only under threat from a tiny minority of gay people who want to get married but impervious to the massive number of heterosexuals who divorce, remarry, cheat and enter de-facto relationships?

    ReplyDelete
  42. Haven't we come such a long way, that we can still talk about mythical places like purgatory and hell, neither of which can be proven to exist by any objective test and I don't seem to find in the NT.

    No, we haven't come that far, we still have blue noses more interested in what other people do with their bits, rather than actually living a life in Christ, as they prophess.

    lucia, since you are obviously not homosexual and therefore in no mortal danger, why does it bother you what others do? Surely god can punish them, while we can simply live and let live.

    Is that so hard?

    ReplyDelete
  43. Danyl,

    You seem to be getting confused. I said that I didn't post much about divorce because I haven't had the time. I've also said that I post on gay marriage, because that's where the battle is. That's where I've been putting my focus when I blog, as news items come up that need to be commented on.

    Once gay marriage gets in, it basically changes marriage completely from being an institution designed to bind a man to his wife and children, to just something adults do because they feel like it, until they don't feel like it any more. Children will no longer have a structure that protects them. It's a process, by the time it gets to the gay marriage part, it's all mostly unravelled. The way you re-ravel it is to go back along the way, as well as reiterating what marriage is actually for.

    That tiny minority of gay people who want to get married aren't being stopped from doing so, if they choose to marry a person of the opposite sex. However, if they want the rules changed for them, that's the point where we are opposed.

  46. Well, no because I thought you were Catholic, not Jewish and I don't know any catholics who adhere to all the rules and regs of the OT.

    From my favourite Catholic Scripture reference site: Purgatory and Hell.

    I'm not sure what you mean by references external to the Bible, if the point is finding the references in the NT. Not everyone is going to look at the references and agree that they mean purgatory and hell.

    I have a you-tube clip of a guy who claimed he visited hell, makes for some scary viewing: 23 minutes in Hell.

    Strange then that those who follow these values have better outcomes in almost every area of society. Mapping America is a site that takes freely available statistics and maps/graphs them.

    The newest map is in regards to unmarried mothers. It shows that 18% of girls who regularly attend church and have an intact family are likely to be unwed mothers, contrasted with 40% of girls being unwed mothers who never attend church and have a family that is not intact.

    So kids who attend church regularly and are part of an intact family have better outcomes with regard to drugs, crime, education, divorce, unmarried mothers, behaviour problems etc etc - the list goes on - every area of life they do better.

    So yeh - our 'stoneage' morals have value after all.

  62. As for being "called out", or, as in one of your worst exaggerations, "challenged", you have done no such thing.

    Posting totally unwarranted lies and smears is no intellectual challenge to the subject party. It is written off as the crude and pointless work of a small minded and repellent coward who clearly does not have any real argument.

    Where is the challenge in weak falsehoods?

    There isn't one.
