The lack of God leads to a lack of boundaries.

One of the difficulties we have among us Prots is that we are too nice. We want to be inclusive. We do not want to confront. We forget that Christ first preached repentance, and that the kingdom was at hand, not the kingdom was at hand, just come in.

But our actions we show we obey, and by our actions we show we rebel. Without the active work of the Spirit within our lives — which means the without God in our lives, for the Spirit is as much God as Christ is — we will rebel. And that is generally ugly.

Sadly the “love’ sermons are probably bereft of the true meaning of love. Love is not an emotion or a “go along to get along” that is the world’s definition. I think this lost priest follows the world’s way of “love” rather than the true way. Love is a willing of the good of others. It is not an emotion at all. Love protects and doesn’t go along with evil doing. It is selfless and other centered and rejoices in the GOOD. It is found in the human WILL, not the emotions. Yet our perverted world considers sodomy “love” which is the farthest thing from it. So the new priest is infecting (from the comment of the author I presume) the truth and destroying souls. Not a good thing. God bless~

Love is not sex: for sex can be a business. As any veteran of the sex trade: I have had to work with my fair share over the years. The Catholics are one of the few groups who are consistently saying the truth here, so they have to be.. silenced.

More than 100 Catholics signed a full-page ad in Thursday’s San Francisco Chronicle asking Pope Francis to name a new church leader more closely aligned with San Francisco’s progressive ideals. In their open letter, the petitioners argue that Cordileone has “fostered an atmosphere of division and intolerance” and “isolated himself from our community.”

The letter follows months of protests against the archdiocese’s leadership. Frustrated local Catholics have spoken out, in particular, against Cordileone’s efforts to add language to the moral guidelines laid out for teachers at Catholic high schools that reaffirms the church’s stances on same-sex marriage, artificial insemination and other controversial matters.

As if there is no such thing as a slippery slope. Chulthu does always swim with the progressives.

That being said, these poor-me articles are just the first step to the normalization of pedophilia. A quick follow-up to World War G and World War T. These pro-pedophilia articles have become relatively common over the past year or so. Over the next decade, expect to see these articles slowly and subtly shift from ‘we have to help these people’ to ‘we should tolerate these people’ to ‘we should accept these people’ to ‘there’s nothing wrong with these people’ to ‘this is an alternative lifestyle’. I don’t think there will be a follow-up to ‘the right to pedophilic marriage’, that seems a bridge too far, but then again, the left is often more audacious then I think they could possibly be.

But even though you are broken, don’t give into the brokenness; you are a man, not a beast. You can choose whether to be a slave to your passions or not. Don’t abuse children, avoid other time alone with other people’s children, and avoid illegal porn. If you must to keep temptation away, masturbate to your fantasies or some lolicon. Better a sin against yourself and your own soul than against a child. I would also say, pray to God and accept the Lord’s salvation; he’ll forgive you and love you even if you are fundamentally broken. But whatever you do realize you are not your perversion. You are moral agent, an autonomous being with a will. Exercise it. Do not let your perversion become your identity.

I have worked with veterans of the sex trade. I’ve worked with people they despise, such as those who are attracted to the underage. To them I say — I am willing to help you deal with living in another manner, but if you act out on these issues you won’t be rescued. For their actions are wrong: all see that but those who have truly have their consciences destroyed.

But we are not prepared to accept that elsewhere. That the church is willing to accept us broken: divorced, the unwed parent, the disabled, the injured, the ill, the mad. But we have to confront the evil within us and turn from it.

Daily. In fact, more than daily. If we lose the idea that repentence is needed for salvation, we either deny Christ and the need for his atonement at the cross, or worse, say that we are merely animals, with but instinct and without conscience or self control, and are less than human.
