The Problem of Morality vs. Homosexuality in the Workplace E-mail sent to a friend- To "X" Yes, I know what you are talking about. If you say anything on the job about homosexuals you risk cutting your own throat. People will be quick to call you a "homophobe." You might need to report to a superior and face disciplinary action; it might be even worse. I understand all of that. However, it does not follow that all that is possible is to retreat to a cubicle and shut up and do nothing. The best thing you can do, at least for now, is make yourself informed. Because, to be candid, if you rely only on your religious beliefs and the authority of the Bible in a secular place of work, you would be setting yourself up for a bad fall. That approach might be successful in a small town in the heart of the Bible Belt, and maybe not even there, but it has no chance at all in modern industry or business more generally. Things are even worse in some fields; anyone in high tech can tell you that the entire industry is pro-homosexual at something like an 80% to 90% rate. You know as well as I do that the problem is bad and getting worse. Apple now has an app that, while it says it is meant for late teens and older, is being marketed as suitable for 12 year olds. Not even Microsoft, which in most areas is at least as anti-moral as Apple, has not gone that far, or not yet, anyway. To explain the extent of the problem, suppose that Apple -or any other company- was to market an app which is supposedly suitable for 12 year old girls who are having sex with boys of a similar age. Or with males of any age. What would you do? Nothing? You would do something, am I correct ? But because the homosexuals have supposedly 'won' the "homosexual rights" fight, may as well cave in on the question of 12 year old boys? Is that what you are saying? And where does this end? NAMBLA wants all age restrictions abolished. If homosexuals of 25 -or 55- want to have sex with boys of 5, hey, why is that wrong? I am not suggesting that Apple or anyone else will be selling apps that are accommodating to NAMBLA any time soon, but I am saying that unless people stand up and fight now, not next year or some other year, when the time comes there will be no defense they could make against exactly that, apps for homosexuals and their grade-school-boy sex partners. There is a reason for the move to 12 year olds. It is "borderline." If homosexuals can get away with going that far, the next generation of homosexual apps will lower the age still further, to 11 or 10. Just what do you think homosexuality really is? What it has always been, strongly focused on older male / young boy relationships. If you don't know that, or of you actually believe homosexual propaganda that "real" homosexuality isn't about pederasty, you would be hopelessly naive. Or not very smart. There may be no apps for 12 year old girls yet, but SEICUS wants exactly that, also. But you would be in no position defend yourself in a secular environment if your case is religious in character. I don't know anything at all about Duck Dynasty, that is not the kind of programming I ever watch, but I do know that one of the stars of the show has just been kicked off because he regards homosexuality as a sin. Which it is, either the very worst of all sins, or at least #2. My point is that you can be completely in the right, morally, and lose. The alternative is to know what you are doing, to be informed about the objective facts, to take a science-based approach. Yes, it is essential to have a moral basis to your opinions. But it is just as essential to know what science says, in this case psychology even if it is not as empirical as physics or microbiology. Sure, even people in the sciences may be pro-homosexual. But you don't need to use those people as sources -except as bad examples. However, to be able to tell which is which, you need to make yourself informed. Repeatedly at my discussion group, Radical Centrism.org, I have urged people to read Dr Charles Socarides' 1995 book, Homosexuality -A Freedom Too Far. It is essential if you want to make yourself informed. I also recommend Judith Reisman's 2010 opus, Sexual Sabotage. For an education unto itself I recommend a 2001 title by O.R. Adams, As We Sodomize America -which is very difficult to read, it was written by an attorney and has all the charm of a phone book, but, -damn! - it is informative. Finally almost any research paper written by Dr. Paul Cameron, available on the web, is guaranteed to be very useful. Has anyone read even one of these titles? Even one? Want my honest answer? It is only a guess and I sincerely hope that I am wrong, but my feeling is that no-one at all has read even one of these sources. Doubtless for "good reason" I don't have the time. I'm too busy with important things. I can't stomach that kind of subject matter. These excuses are pathetic. --------------------------------------------------- I need to be totally honest with you. I have almost no respect for the so-called "Christian approach" to the issue of homosexuality. It has been tried for most of the past 25 years and has ended up in abysmal failure. And it is impossible, in my experience anyway, to try and talk with Christians about the failures inherent in their approach. They won't listen, it has to be their ludicrously uninformed way or no way. OK, and they can stuff it, as far as I am concerned. They don't know what in the hell they are doing, and they are determined to make the same mistakes over and over again and end up with still more failures. This also is pathetic. I'm not sure how many times I have offered my services to Christians over the years. And you know perfectly well what I am talking about. Each time the response is the same, "no thanks," or silence. I get the idea. Still, there is something to consider. What happens should I ever achieve the breakthrough that has been my motivation for many years? Suppose there finally is a platform for me to use to express my views to the public? Keep in mind that ANY breakthrough -in any area of interest- would be sufficient. What matters is a platform and access to speaking to the public. And I mean far more than freedom to stand on a soapbox, wooden or electronic. You do not need to guess that at the top of my list of priorities is an all-out war against homosexuality or toleration of homosexuality. Everything about homosexuality is sick, psychologically damaging, immoral in the extreme, ruinous to families and communities, and indefensible. I look forward to fighting against those creatures from hell. Moreover, I am informed, I do know what I am talking about, and maybe "best of all," I am more than willing to take the heat. Whenever it happens that I get into the news, the game will be over. Anyone who wants to would be able to discuss their opposition to homosexuality openly; the homosexuals and their dupes will be on the defensive. The catch is that I don't know when this will happen. What I do know is that almost no-one I know, almost no-one at all, gives a damn beyond occasional gripes about how they cannot do anything, how their hands are tied, how saying something would be risky, and every other rationalization you can think of. All of which makes me sick to think about. Excuses are the extent of their faith-based morality? Any excuse to do nothing is a good excuse, is how they look at things. Are you an exception? We both know the answer to that question. You asked for my opinion here it is Billy R.
