So we are finally done with another “Pride Month,” though if
Richard Levine had
his way, it would continue through the summer. Alas, the “Pride” movement
will likely last until the end of time, when all things will be made right, and
then every vestige of “Pride”—along with all other evil—will be swept away. Until
then, we must faithfully endure “Pride” and all its perversions.
Pride 2023 seems to have been particularly perverse. In
spite of their many recent “victories”—a legal
redefinition of the oldest institution in the history of humanity, a
corporate culture that embraces, promotes, and celebrates virtually every evil
aspect of the LGBT agenda, an academic culture that does the same, and so on—it’s
as if those who’ve abandoned the truth on sex simply don’t know when or how to
stop.
This is completely unsurprising. As Dr. Jeffrey Satinover
notes in his excellent book, Homosexuality and the Politics of Truth,
[A]nother defining feature of homosexuality is the broad range of
sexual appetites and behaviors that appear when people do not conform
themselves to a code of behavior. Indeed, once people begin to “walk on the
wild side,” they have effectively broken one of society’s strongest taboos.
Other taboos then fall away easily and rapidly. For homosexual apologists, this
feature of the gay lifestyle is not so much a mark of enslavement to sexuality
as a sign of homosexuals’ greater freedom from arbitrary and stifling social inhibitions,
sexual and otherwise.
Taboos falling away “easily and rapidly” seem to apply to
cultures as well as individuals. Consider that, in the United States, once laws
against homosexual behavior were declared unconstitutional (Lawrence v.
Texas, 2003), in barely a generation we’ve gone from homosexual behavior
being widely (and rightly) seen as immoral and unhealthy, and thus illegal, to
a widespread acceptance of homosexual behavior, to debating what is marriage—with
the vast majority of U.S. states and the population at-large then embracing
the biblical view of marriage—to (via a 5-4 SCOTUS judicial fiat) a legal
redefinition of marriage (giving us same-sex “marriage”), to debating what is a
male and what is a female, to a widespread acceptance—including within the
established medical community!—of the absurd and evil notion that one can
change one’s sex through merely declaring such (sometimes combined with drugs
and surgery), to laws and edicts that enforce this evil absurdity, to allowing
children to embrace and participate in this evil absurdity!
In other words, in barely a generation we’ve gone from “Stay
out of our bedroom!” to boys taking
trophies from girls (As
I warned!), government schools secretly
“transitioning” children, children being hauled to Drag
Queen Story Hour and Pride
parades by their foolishly woke parents, the attempted
normalization of pedophilia, and the like. All of this is because “Stay out
of our bedroom!” has
never really been the
end game for the LGBT agenda. After all, live and let live is not a
hallmark of the LGBT agenda, and they are extreme “mind
your own business” hypocrites.
As was the case in
the marriage debate, the LGBT war on sex (“gender”) is simply another
opportunity for those who want to rule
their own world to thumb their noses at the laws of the Law Giver. The
legalization of same-sex “marriage” was never really only about giving
homosexuals the opportunity to “marry.” It was also always about sticking it to
Christians and Christianity. In other words, as was the case with same-sex
“marriage,” “transgenderism” is a war against the truth.
The LGBT agenda has always been about “progressing” towards a
culture where the Laws of God—especially in the sexually realm—are at least
ignored, and ideally formally abandoned and replaced with the laws and “morals”
of rebellious humans. This “progression” seemingly has no end, thus the perversions
of what is good and right continue to grow into what is more and more perverse.
As noted above, we are now facing those who wish to
normalize pedophilia. As John Hinderacker recently
noted at Powerline, Democrats in Minnesota have now officially come out “in
defense of pedophilia as a matter of law.” Mr. Hinderacker notes,
Minnesota’s crazed DFL [Democrat] majorities have passed one extreme
measure after another this session, but this one breaks new ground in service of pedophilia. The bill is HF 1655,
sponsored by a man pretending to be a woman named Leigh Finke…Finke’s bill is
called the “Take Pride Act.” We might re-name it the “Take Pride in Abuse of
Children Act.”
…Now note what Mr. Finke’s bill does: Along with creating all kinds of
legal rights on behalf of transgenders, it changes the definition of “Sexual
orientation” by deleting the exclusion of pederasty from the definition.
…The result of this amendment is that all of the special legal protections
now given to homosexuals in health care, welfare, employment, housing,
education and much else will benefit pederasts.
Tragically, Minnesota is not alone in this evil pursuit. As David
Strom reports
at HotAir,
It turns out that Minnesota isn’t the only state where
the Democrats are determined to normalize pedophilia. Connecticut, too, is
taking steps to redefine its Human Rights laws to eliminate restrictions on the
definition of “sexual orientation” to include paraphilias that are so offensive
that legislators specifically banned their consideration for inclusion in
protected classes.
…As with Minnesota, the changes do not legalize
pedophilic acts–it is, thankfully, going to remain illegal for adults to rape
children. However, being a “Minor Attracted Person” is no longer sufficient to
exclude you from polite society, and may even entitle one to special
protections from the state.
The perversions of the LGBT agenda truly know no bounds. If
we continue down this path of sexual rebellion, the perversions will continue
to shock us, though they shouldn’t surprise those who know the truth.
