Science and Bioethics

Even in this case, we invite the reader to grasp the crux of the article and the reflections, that are interesting and shareable, in large part, leaving aside the author's sedeplenism, however witty in the analysis.

(AUTOMATIC READING)
The article by James Martin in his best disguise – the victim – forces me to do some reflection on this very painful story of the McCarrick's abuse: the Jesuit priest, increasingly explicit in his homosexualist militancy, complains about the witch hunt against priests “gay” in an article retweeted by Spadaro, which I also assumed “very faithful” of that Pope who says that homosexuals should not even enter the seminary at the slightest suspicion. Unfortunately, complaints and victimhood are the strong points of militants (it is no coincidence that a personality trait is more often feminine than masculine). By dint of complaining and playing victims, by dint of talking about discrimination and non-welcome, on the contrary, homosexual people have imposed their agenda at all levels with extreme aggression and ideological violence.
THEY DO NOT ASK NOT TO BE DISCRIMINATED, THEY WANT TO COMMAND
Previously they succeeded with several governments, imposing their roadmap, blocking parliaments for months, betraying the priorities of reality, inventing a world in which homosexual people are victims of daily evil and violence and it is extremely urgent in the name of civil rights to deal with this, more urgent than poverty, of the school, of unemployment. Because as Bret Easton Ellis says, they don't ask not to be discriminated against, they want to lead. An agenda presumably dictated by a direction that I cannot decipher, but the effects of which are clear (how else to explain, for example, Gentiloni's parting words, his political legacy: “I am proud to have led a government that did the data, and of being from a party that has created civil unions”?). Now they're doing it – occupy the center of the scene, obscuring the rest – in the Church, with the consequence that at this moment even many men of holy faith and very solid doctrine no longer have the courage to tell the truth about homosexuality, that is, it is a disorder, and that homosexual relationships are a sin. Or maybe they say it, but during the day against homophobia, therefore bowing to the diktats of an agenda imposed on the Church from the outside, and totally not real compared to the true needs of the faithful (I need someone to remind me that my problem is me, not others who treat me badly).
As usual the Church arrives with finished sales, and while homosexual priests are consultants to Dicasteries, they run courses to teach homosexual fidelity, and then as they rise through the ranks they make a career and manage real estate, money and cardinalships, they dictate the newspaper schedule, the Church still seems to believe the hoax of the suffering of those who do not feel accepted. Maybe some sincerely believe it, but because they don't know reality. People with same-sex attraction suffer because they suffer, not because they are not accepted, which is more and more false (I'm still waiting for them to tell us a real story about this, of someone mistreated in the Church for his inclination). The magisterium remained their only hope of emerging from their suffering, which doesn't go away if everyone pats on the back. It doesn't go away until it's addressed.
PSYCHIATRY, THE CENSORED WORD
The Pope mentioned it on the plane, psychiatry can be used as a child. He then added “around twenty years old no more”, but I know people who have faced and won this battle even well into their twenties, because they had someone at their side who told them the truth. A Catholic. Because medical work alone is not enough, the spiritual one is also needed.
The Press Office then corrected the statement in the official bulletin, writing “many things can be done” and removing the word psychiatrist. The tireless Martin, climbing on straws, was quick to explain to us that the Pope meant to say that the psychiatrist is useful to children because they feel discriminated against. After twenty years, At that time, dear Martin, there is no more discrimination? So the whole homophobia thing is therefore false? You choose. Or admit that the Pope said what he said – psychiatrist, there is registration – precisely because he meant to talk about treatment or do you admit that homophobia does not exist and therefore, as you say, the psychiatrist who served as children is no longer needed.
I don't know why this fix, and I don't know why all this happens, I'm not good with plots. Perhaps the Pope did not mention the word homosexuality in his mea culpa for the abuse in Pennsylvania so as not to offend, don't make anyone feel unwelcome, so as not to throw salt into the wound of homosexuality which already hurts on its own. Maybe he just wanted to talk about the abuse and not the plague of the Church, because not all homosexuals, right, they commit abuses, and wanted to avoid the risk of identifying the two phenomena. Right, not all homosexuals commit abuse, but the vast majority of abuse is carried out by homosexuals. And homosexual practice between consenting adult priests is an abomination, regardless of consent. E’ an abomination first of all for those who carry it out and a father of those priests must condemn it, for their good and their soul, for their eternal salvation and for their life here. Se, as we believe and announce, homosexuality is a disorder, this affects the whole life of the priest. We are not male or female just in bed, we are in the way we look at the world, in judgements, in affectivity, in the way of loving others. Even greater virility is required of the priest than that required of a layman, to a married one. The priest in the confessional needs a lot of testosterone. And even in his giving of himself and dying for the faithful, like Jesus, he realizes the call to be profoundly human. A homosexual priest who does not fight his inclination cannot be a good priest, and the Church must not be afraid to say it, and in fact the Pope says so: they don't even have to enter the seminary. It's not that homosexuals aren't virile, it's that they feel wounded in their manhood, and they must be helped to become proud of being true men again, whatever injuries they may have suffered. True hospitality is telling the truth gently.
WHY ALL THIS CAUTION?
We are all on a journey of constant conversion. We are all sinners and we all deal with a disorder (maybe just one!). Our disorders prevent us from being united with the Lord and from living our lives in a fruitful and orderly way. For example, when you live in a situation of adultery, all life enters into a sort of schizophrenia, and you can't do any of the normal things with an undivided heart. All life becomes adulterous, because affectivity is our center, and the Church safeguards it with great wisdom. This is why the sixth commandment, through the quest of human life, for this reason indissolubility.
I don't know why all this caution, but if it is to not push anyone away, to make everyone feel welcomed, so as not to be divisive, maybe it's worth looking at what's happened to all the gay-friendly governments lately. Almost all of them have been cancelled, overwhelmed, disappeared. A very small minority won by taking over the scene, the majority did not feel it was a priority, and voted accordingly. However you think about it, what is clear in common perception is that the homosexual cause cannot impose itself in this ideological and false way. So, if the objective is consensus, It seems to me that there is a bit of it in the Church’ what happened in the political scenarios of many countries is happening: Hollande, Cameron, Renzi, Zapatero, Hillary Clinton had all the media in favor, but the common perception was very far from their narrative imposed from above. There is no voting in the Church, and her true children will remain lovers of this mother however filthy her garments may be. However, many are experiencing confusion and suffering: many very clear and good words were said, but perhaps some gesture created confusion.
Because for example, in Martin's place in Dublin, Br. did not go to speak. Mike Schmitz who wrote a wonderful book about attraction to the same, full of intelligence and understanding and delicacy, but in line with the magisterium? E’ the same priest who gives courses to men on virility, on how to be true Christian men, and who is much loved and followed, who knows how to inflame hearts with the pride of belonging to Christ, without ever attacking anyone. Plus, come bonus, he also did two Ironmans. For me many priests are superheroes, but if they swim for 4 kilometres, they pedal for 180 and then they run a marathon, be’, I'm even more so.
Note from BastaBugie: Lupo Glori in the following article entitled “Not just Father Martin, from Dublin indications for a new LGBT pastoral care” talks about what emerged from the recent world meeting of families in Dublin… and there is nothing to be happy about.
