I told you so.

This is the post where I "out" myself as a hate-filled, homophobic, reactionary, intolerant Christian. But before I regurgitate my bile on this page in a spew of hating hatefulness against everyone who leads an "alternative" lifestyle, let me say that some of the nicest, most decent, kindest and most generous people I have ever known were also people who led "alternative" lifestyles. 

When I was a little girl, my mom knew a young woman who had been brutalized by her father, both physically and sexually. She then had a series of relationships with men that all were replays of her relationship with her father. She finally became a lesbian. It was literally a matter of self-preservation...of survival. Her partner was a classic dyke - masculine and completely lacking in any feminine sensibilities. The pair were delightful. They were simply wonderful people and great fun to be around. As a child, I didn't care or give it much thought. Certainly no one explained anything to me and everyone acted as if it all was completely normal. It wasn't until I was much, much older that I realized that they were a lesbian couple. It never mattered to me. It still doesn't.

Straight out of college, I worked for a major international airline. I probably don't have to reassure anyone that most of the men who work as flight attendants are gay. If you were ever uncertain...they are. I knew lots of gay men during my time in the airlines. Some were complete jerks. Some were fantastic and I loved them. In either case, I didn't care whether they were homosexual or not.

But when the movement began on the left to decriminalize sodomy, I said then that this was only a first step and they wouldn't stop until they had NORMALIZED homosexuality. I told everyone, despite their incredulity, that the left wouldn't stop until they had legalized gay marriage. I even went so far out in the weeds as to predict that the left was really after the children. I predicted that the left would fight for gay marriage, and then they would carry the fight to normalize pedophilia. Everyone said I was a horrible person. I shrugged, agreeing, in a general sense, with that assessment. But still I stood by my prediction.

I was right.

Pat Dollard brings us this story:

Using the same tactics used by “gay” rights activists, pedophiles have begun to seek similar status arguing their desire for children is a sexual orientation no different than heterosexual or homosexuals.

Critics of the homosexual lifestyle have long claimed that once it became acceptable to identify homosexuality as simply an “alternative lifestyle” or sexual orientation, logically nothing would be off limits. “Gay” advocates have taken offense at such a position insisting this would never happen. However, psychiatrists are now beginning to advocate redefining pedophilia in the same way homosexuality was redefined several years ago.

I told you so. A decade ago gay activists took offense at the suggestion that they were going after marriage when they insisted that they only wanted to not be criminals in their own bedrooms. Remember, with the left, you're always the loon if you can see where they are really going.

In 1973 the American Psychiatric Association declassified homosexuality from its list of mental disorders. A group of psychiatrists with B4U-Act recently held a symposium proposing a new definition of pedophilia in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of

Mental Health Disorders of the APA.

B4U-Act calls pedophiles “minor-attracted people.” The organization’s website states its purpose is to, “help mental health professionals learn more about attraction to minors and to consider the effects of stereotyping, stigma and fear.”

"Minor-attracted people". It would be funny if it weren't so hideously, sickeningly degenerate.

In 1998 The APA issued a report claiming “that the ‘negative potential’ of adult sex with children was ‘overstated’ and that ‘the vast majority of both men and women reported no negative sexual effects from childhood sexual abuse experiences.”

This is pure, unadulterated hooey. We are a sick, sick nation if we let this move even one, tiny, baby step forward. This must stop. Now.

But wait. Pedophiles...and any and all other sexual deviants, are already protected by our government.

Pedophilia has already been granted protected status by the Federal Government. The Matthew Shephard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act lists “sexual orientation” as a protected class; however, it does not define the term.

Republicans attempted to add an amendment specifying that “pedophilia is not covered as an orientation;” however, the amendment was defeated by Democrats. Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-Fl) stated that all alternative sexual lifestyles should be protected under the law. “This bill addresses our resolve to end violence based on prejudice and to guarantee that all Americans, regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability or all of these ‘philias’ and fetishes and ‘isms’ that were put forward need not live in fear because of who they are. I urge my colleagues to vote in favor of this rule.”

Get that? "...all alternative sexual lifestyles should be protected..." All. No distinction. No line in the sand. No bridge too far. No point at which you are outraged and want to throw up at the ungodly hideousness of it all.

When the laws against sodomy were struck down, they weren't being used to persecute gays, and they hadn't been used against gays for decades. But they did stand as a legal line of demarcation beyond which we, as a society, could not go. When they were struck down, sexual behavior was no longer seen as properly regulated by the law. It was a brave new world. Anyone could do anything with anyone at any time. Of course everyone said that was crazy talk.

Who's crazy now?

I am angry. Really, really angry. The final destruction of society will be evidenced in our willingness to sacrifice our own children to our basest, more prurient natures. We already can kill them as they attempt to draw their first breath under the protection of the law. Why not prey on them once they are born?

This is pure evil. There is no other word for it.
