[From “Why So Many Approve of Homosexuality”]

WHY do so many people who do not themselves engage in “homosexuality” approve of it?

We know one thing: It’s not about love. It’s not about loving the people who are caught up in this sin and who are scandalously applauded by the world as heroes and sacred victims. We know it’s not about love because this “lifestyle” is demonstrably the cause of such profound unhappiness in the long run and is demonstrably damaging to any society approving it. The record on that score is overwhelming, as anyone who is not detached from reality and who cares to look beyond sentimental fictions will see

It really is more about confirming their own choices in life, than it is about any kind of true charity for others

Here’s some words on that matter that I posted originally 11 years ago:[…]
Once a person has turned away from God, he is irresistibly drawn to that which is against the natural order that is God’s creation. Homosexuality is anti-nature and anti-God. Therefore it greatly appeals to the acolytes of utopia and their false gods

It is not about love

[excerpts from a long rant about his dad and Charles Lindbergh]
Roosevelt tried to demonize Lindbergh because he spoke the truth when he named three groups of war-provocateurs. If Americans had acted on the advice of Lindbergh and America First, they could have kept hundreds of thousands of their most valuable men alive at home instead of being killed on other continents in a war engineered to make the world safe for Communists.

In an age when Big Lies are commonly asserted as truth, Americans are still told by their government and the mass communications industry that Lindbergh was a “racist”, “isolationist”, and “Nazi sympathizer”. For which groups is name-calling standard operating procedure? Communists and “Liberals”. The truth is of course quite different. Observe that a man who advised Americans to mind their own business at home instead of get dragged into international adventurism is painted as a Bad Man — whereas men whose policies led to the death of thousands of American men and thousands of Japanese civilians (in 1945) are painted as Great Men. Even those who profess admiration for Lindbergh the pilot will accommodate claims that there was something wrong in his advocacy of self-defense for Americans instead of self-immolation. Such is the power of decades of propaganda and the credulity of people who are willing to be deceived.

[…]

Like most other Americans in those years, my father probably looked upon FDR the way the mass propaganda industry painted him: As a kindly, honorable man and president. I doubt my father would have believed that radio and newspapers would assert or rubber-stamp lies, or that Roosevelt would lie both about Lindbergh and about a “surprise” Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor as an excuse for dragging Americans into the war. I do not know whether my father could have imagined evil on that scale.

[From “St. William of Norwich”]

The Boy Martyr of Norwich

Far in the thickest wood the fair lad lies
A rosy radiance plays around his head
Tall trees rise black upon the midnight skies
Save where a silver beam reveals the dead
Magnificat he sang at evensong
And then when music hushed and lamps were low
Alone he homeward went nor dreamed of wrong
And in the still moonlight with footsteps slow
From a dark entry sprang a Jewish horde
Like fiends around the gentle boy they stood
And, as in ages dim they slew his Lord,
Nailed to a cross his white limbs stained with blood
But God’s sweet Mother grants him strength to bear
That fadeless diadem which martyrs wear

—- Frederick Rolfe (1899)

THIS modern poem about St. William of Norwich commemorates a twelfth-century, English saint whose feast day is today

According to Rev. Alban Butler, in his Lives of the Saints:

“He suffered in the twelfth year of his age . . . a little before Easter, in 1137, the Jews of that city seized and gagged him: then they bound, mocked and crucified him, in derision of Christ: they also pierced his left side”

Let me invoke the Catholic practice of praying for the intercession of the saint of the day with a prayer of my own:

Pray for us, St. William of Norwich — and pray for all those who by a thousand cruel cuts have had their lives damaged or destroyed in modern times by ritual abuse and defamation from collective Jewry, whether it be “Holocaust deniers” confined in jails in Europe or those seeking the truth on numerous other subjects under the onerous stigma of “hate” and “anti-semitism.” Their sacrifice cannot approximate yours, dear saint. Nevertheless, gentle martyr, please pray for their courage in the face of wanton cruelty. Father, please forgive these powerful imitators of Caiphas and Annas, for they know not what they do
