Legalize The Lies /
Sins
Christian
apologist Frank Turek said, “Lies are born the moment someone thinks the truth
is dangerous.” One can’t hit the nail better on its head.
Not so long
ago, the conventional thought of the majority was to deem homosexuality as an
abnormal or as we Christians say, sinful, sexual behavior. This conventional
thought was predicated on the truth that homosexuality is a sin against God or
as a secularist would claim – a behavior contrary to nature, and hence should
not be practiced.
However, an
alternative, but a weirdly powerful thought process began devouring the
conventional thought. This weird yet powerful thought asked the question, “Why
should love be denied between consenting homosexuals?” This weird thought
promoted the lie under the pretext of love, because it thought that the truth
was dangerously condemning love between homosexuals.
As a result
homosexuality is now considered as an alternative lifestyle in many, if not all
cultures. Some countries have legalized homosexuality and others are on their
way to do so. In India, once a bastion of conservative thought, hate would
inundate those who dare condemn homosexuality.
When the
lie of homosexuality camouflaged as truth and taken off the taboo-list of
condemnatory sexual behaviors, many well-meaning voices envisaged a time when the
greater lie of pedophilia (sexual attraction to children) would follow suit. Appropriately
so, a few years ago, at a conference held by the University of Cambridge, university
academics began the process to legalize pedophilia when they presented papers
advocating legalization of pedophilia.
Pedophilia Will
Piggyback On Homosexuality
On what
grounds would pedophilia be legalized?
Pedophilia
will piggyback on homosexuality. Two prominent Canadian psychologists believe
that pedophilia is a sexual orientation as heterosexuality or homosexuality, "Van
Gijseghem, psychologist and retired professor of the University of Montreal,
told members of Parliament,
“Pedophiles are not simply people who commit a small offense from time to time but rather are
grappling with what is equivalent to a sexual orientation just like another individual may be
grappling with heterosexuality or even homosexuality.”
He went on to say, “True pedophiles have an exclusive preference for children, which is the same as
having a sexual orientation. You cannot change this person’s sexual orientation. He may, however, remain
abstinent.” When asked if he should
be comparing pedophiles to homosexuals, Van Gijseghem replied, “If, for instance, you were living in a society
where heterosexuality is proscribed or prohibited and you were told that you had to get therapy to change your
sexual orientation, you would
probably say that that is slightly crazy. In other words, you would not accept
that at all. I use this analogy to say
that, yes indeed, pedophiles do not change their sexualorientation.”
Dr.
Quinsey, professor emeritus of psychology at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, agreed with Van Gijseghem.
Quinsey said pedophiles’ sexual interests prefer children and, “There is no evidence that this sort of
preference can be changed through treatment
or through anything else.”
In July,
2010 Harvard health Publications said, “Pedophilia is a sexual orientation and unlikely to change. Treatment aims to
enable someone to resist acting on his sexual urges.”"1
Therefore,
the abnormal sexual behavior of pedophilia will be camouflaged as truth under
the pretext of an alternate sexual orientation to gain legitimacy.
Further Justification For Pedophilia
NAMBLA
(North American Man/Boy Love Association) justifies pedophilia on the basis of
its presence during the evolution of man, "THERE IS
GOOD evidence for the view that man/boy love is rooted in our earliest social evolution. If true, then no amount of suppressive
legislation, beefed-up police powers, or psychological
conditioning will ever be able to eradicate it without fundamentally altering and impairing something essential
and vital in human nature. Intergenerational homosexuality
has been observed repeatedly in one of the most intelligent creatures on the planet. Dolphins not only engage in homosexuality,
but also the cetaceous equivalent of
boy-love. In what has come to be
regarded as the "classic observations of dolphins at the Marineland of Florida," marine
biologists A.F. McBride and D.O. Hebb published their findings in the Journal of Comparative and
Physiological Psychology. Their landmark study revealed that sexual play
among young male dolphins was so common it seemed
to typify a pre-adult stage. Not as
common but nonetheless frequent were sexual encounters
between maturing male dolphins and fully adult males. These liaisons were not matters of dominance and submission. Indeed, the younger dolphins often sought out the older males. Force or coercion never appeared in such
contacts."2
NAMBLA then
goes on to substantiate the presence of pedophilia in mankind that existed 4000
years ago, “If American moralists are scandalized by the dolphin's sex
practices, how much more offended might they be by the behavior of their own
ancestors, the founders of western civilization, more than 4000 years ago? In his deeply researched investigation of the
Indo-European peoples of the third millennium B.C., Rick Fields recreated their
ceremonial life: "Very probably they practiced ritual pederasty, like some
of the warriors in New Guinea. This
custom was known among warrior societies in Sparta and Crete, where young boys
were 'captured' by older warriors as part of initiation. It was also found among the Celts and
Germans."” 3 (Pederasty is the sexual relationship between an
adult and a minor.)
Today,
pedophilia advocacy groups (organizations working towards legalizing
paedophilia) are active in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France,
Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, Sweden, United Kingdom, and
the United States. 4
So do not
be surprised if you are living in a country that will soon legalize pedophilia.
Consequence: Increased
Child Sex Abuse
We do not
need an astrophysicist to inform us that legitimizing pedophilia would result
in an increased child sex abuse. It is estimated that 1 in 6 boys and 1 in 4
girls in the USA are victims of sexual abuse before the age of 18.5
If pedophilia is to be legitimized, then more children would be vulnerable to
sexual abuse.
Moreover,
we will observe an increased number of pedophiles in action. Even the church
would present an increased number of pedophiles clothed as clergy. For
instance, the Pope had apparently announced that 2% of Catholic clergy are
pedophiles.6 If pedophilia is legitimized, then it is quite possible
that this percentage could increase.
Consequence: Legitimize
Other Lies / Sins E.g. Child Pornography
Would there
be associated threats if pedophilia is to be legitimized?
The seeds
for such threats are being planted already. Even the most learned scholars
would then advocate the legitimization of child porn in order to keep the
pedophiles in check, “Milton Diamond, a University of Hawaii professor and
director of the Pacific Center for Sex and Society, stated that child
pornography could be beneficial to society because, “Potential sex offenders
use child pornography as a substitute for sex against children.”
Diamond is
a distinguished lecturer for the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human
Sexuality in San Francisco.”7
Christian Response
What should
the Christians do in the wake of such inordinate threats to our children?
Let us
primarily educate ourselves and our children about this situation. Let us also
develop a healthy relationship with our children that they would approach us
first when and if they are abused or even if they suspect a person as a
pedophile. This person could even be a most trusted person in our domain.
Focus on
the victims; love and care for them says this wonderful article, please read
this article if you are serious about tackling the menace of pedophilia,
especially in the church, (http://thewartburgwatch.com/2012/07/02/towards-a-christian-response-to-pedophilia-in-the-church/).
Finally, today,
even within Christianity, voices are getting louder to tolerate homosexuality.
A good number of Christians have sinfully embraced the lie of tolerance that
appears as a noble truth.
So here’s my
question to those who tolerate homosexuality, “how do you propose to tolerate
when your child or a dear friend’s child, in trauma, divulges that he/she has
been painfully sodomized by an adult?”
Huh!
Come Lord Jesus and deliver us from evil.
