Comment 1:
In our age, the enemies of God are a bunch of buffoons, with a gun pointing to your head just in case you start laughing.
Deep inside they know they are ridiculous (you can see some pictures of the last sexual fad). About 35 years ago, when I was young, in a party with friends, I took a wig and painted myself like a woman, with women clothes, as a joke. Now the joke is real.
In other age, they wouldn’t dare to behave this way, because they would be mocked endlessly.
Since they behave in a ridiculous manner when they are in private, their own conscience bears witness for them, since their thoughts accuse them. Conscience (the ability to distinguish right from wrong, true from false.) is a b*tch, even for non-Christians, see Romans 2:14-15 ). It cannot be disconnected, although it can be temporarily soothed. It is what fuels liberalism, wokeism and the like.
They are torn between the pleasure of behaving like buffoons and the conscience of knowing that they are doing wrong and they are ridiculous. This is why they spend their life suppressing the thought that they are doing wrong and they are ridiculous. This takes a lot of mental energy and this inner conflict is externalized to the public realm, destroying society, making it totalitarian.
They cannot bear the thought that somewhere, someone can think bad of them, can think that they are fools. This revives the inner conflict. This is why they demand LGBTI-phobia laws and compulsory LGBTI celebration programs. If everybody applauds them, they can make their conscience to be quiet for a while. But conscience is a b*tch and starts raising its ugly head again so they need a new dose of praise and celebration. A day for their perversions? A whole month? All the companies celebrating them endlessly. There is never enough.
(I put myself as an example. I am a white man who married a mulatto woman. I know many people say miscegenation is wrong. I feel myself bad for this? Not at all. I want these people to shut up? Not at all. I want laws forbidding these kinds of expressions? Definitively not. I want everybody to celebrate interracial marriages? No. I want to parade with my wife and everybody applauding me? This is ridiculous, I would prefer not to do this. I really don’t give a damn what other people think of me. Because I don’t have a guilty conscience that tortures me).
They have these parades when they behave publicly like the fools and perverts they are in private. They want absolution for their guilty conscience without trying to change (like Christians do). This is why they call these parades “pride”. It is about everybody applauding them so they feel a bit better, while deep down their conscience accuses them.
So this is why they have a gun pointing to your head. Don’t mock them. Don’t tell them it’s wrong. Don’t tell them that you don’t want to applaud and celebrate their foolishness. As you know, I lost my job because I refused to applaud.
Comment 2:
“I think the human conscience is very pliant. My reading of Romans 2:14-15 is not that all gentiles (or Jews) have the law written on their hearts, but that some do and we know this “when” their acts follow the law.”
As everything in human biology, it has a normal statistical distribution, a Bell’s curve. There are people with high sense of conscience, some other have low sense. Only psychopaths’ and the like have no conscience.
This amounts to the difference of attitude between that kind of people. Everybody knows a gay person, who is relaxed, a “live and let live” kind of person. They are not that haunted by their conscience and/or they do not practice the most degraded and perverted practices.
“I think in-your-face displays are more aggressive than therapeutic. Public transgression of old social norms is a victory dance or a victory parade. ”
I think they are both. When I talk about the therapeutic part, I refer especially to this kind of people that go to the parade mostly naked with the kind of clothes they enjoy in their private perverted practices. There is no reason for a demonstration in favor of LGBTI styles to be this way.
But they want to be absolved, celebrated. They wouldn’t need this if they didn’t feel bad about it.
Lately, there have been a series of videos on the Internet showing trans people going to businesses and screaming at the manager because he used the wrong pronoun. The manager tries to sidestep the issue and only offer the service. The last time I saw one of them was a video in Mexico City and the manager was completely polite, had a lot of patience and a great dignity. While the trans person screamed at him and behaved like an insane individual, the manager only wanted to do his work. What was the thing that irked the trans person so much? That the manager refused to accept the trans pronoun. He started calling this individual as a male (which produced the conflict) and then, he avoided using pronouns (in Spanish, this is common). But he didn’t refer to the customer as “she” and this produced a torrent of anger, insanity and abuse in the trans individual. He insisted and insisted and complained about not being called “she”. And each time the manager didn’t do that (didn’t call him “he” either), he was more outraged and abusive. A video in the USA was completely similar.
Do you lose your mind and feel attacked if a business manager refers to you as a “lady” and then treats you in a gender-neutral way? Of course, not. You may think that he is doing a joke or that he has bad eyesight or that he has had a temporary mistake or it is not completely well in the head. Why? Because you know you are a man. Like the trans individual. He knows he is a man deep inside and spends all his mental energy in denying this obvious fact. It is the conscience.
Let’s suppose that the trans individual in Mexico City only wanted to advance the cause of so-called “trans rights”. Of course, he wants to do that, but is a small business and a mundane interaction the best way to focus your energy on? What about doing a demonstration, going after politicians and things like that? Why do you lose your temper and behave like an insane individual instead of only protesting and complaining? People used to protest in favor of Communism but they didn’t behave like they were given a temporary permission to get out of the asylum
It is personal for them. They are trying to suppress the certainty that they are men. It is the conscience.
“Some would have us believe that man is the Rational Animal. I say Rationalizing Animal is closer to the truth. ”
Exactly. We rationalize the things we do wrong. You don’t need to rationalize that you are a man, that you are heterosexual, that you love your children, that you sacrificed for a friend, that you go to the church or practice sports, or that you are obese because you have a disease.
You rationalize having sex with strangers, divorcing your partner and leaving your kids in a broken family, doing drugs, any kind of selfishness, being obese because you eat like a pig.
You know that these things are wrong. This is why you need to rationalize them. This is why you want other people to approve it.
So it is the conscience. Rationalizing is trying to soothe our conscience without trying to change our behavior, but this only works temporarily. As I said, “conscience is a bitch”.
I remember Michelle Williams’ speech at the Golden Globes some time ago. Out of the blue, she expressed in a diplomatic way, that she aborted her baby to pursue her career. He said it in a way that I don’t remember well but you can look it up on Youtube. It was “I also had to practice my right to choose or something like this” ( as opposed to “I killed my baby” or “I had an abortion”: when you use weasel words, you know that you have done wrong and you want to hide behind expressions to disguise your guilt, your conscience).
Anyway, I remember thinking: “Why does she do that? Nobody cares. It is not like they are discussing the topic of abortion. It is not like she is talking about her personal life. She is receiving an award, that’s it”. Then I saw all the people in the public smiling and applauding, doing fake expressions of sympathy (these are the most narcissistic people in the world and the facial expressions were so fake).
And then it dawned on me. She was in search of an ABSOLUTION for having killed her baby. He wanted to be applauded by other people to appease her guilt, her conscience. He looked for the same I look when I go to the confessional: to be cleared of my sins. But when I go to the confessional and try to stop sinning, I stop feeling guilty about past sins. The absolution these people search is fake (because they don’t try to stop sinning) so it only works for a while.
“God, the Father of mercies, through the death and resurrection of his son has reconciled the world to himself and poured out the Holy Spirit for the forgiveness of sins; through the ministry of the church may God grant you pardon and peace, and I absolve you from your sins in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.”
Comment 3: by another person
Yes. The goal is not tolerance, it is validation. But there’s another dimension and it’s the exercise of raw, passive-aggressive power. I read an article about a German executive with the ultimate kink: some days he shows up male with his birth name and obvious pronouns, some days he shows up female and goes by his fetish name and insists on female pronouns. Can you imagine the frisson this little freak experiences, whipsawing everyone around him with his petty behavioral codes? This is the totalitarian mindset; we don’t despise these people enough.
