Family Research Council leader caught w/ gay prostitute

[The_Lady_Snow]

Contrary to false gossip, innuendo, and slander about me, I do not in any way "hate" homosexuals, but I seek to lovingly share two types of messages to them, as I did with the young man called "Lucien" in the news story: [1] It is possible to cease homosexual practices to avoid the unacceptable health risks associated with that behavior, and [2] the most important decision one can make is to establish a relationship with God for all eternity by trusting in Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross for the forgiveness of your sins, including homosexual sins.

I wonder how he was able to do all this as he sucked his *assistants* dick...

What an ass hat!

Jesus told me to kick a juice box off his neck....

Yeah. I'm surprised he didn't cite *gay bowel disease*. Because being gay is only a behavior after all.

Sigh.

Isn't our community having a slut night something that would totally FREAK out an outsider? I'd hate to be judged for that one night.

I can see all the points, but I still don't know that it causes those of us who live a normal life (whatever that means) erasure or invisibility.

I'm willing to learn though.

Off to ponder.

I hear what you're saying SuperFemme....I guess the main difference for me is that, while carrying on at slut night (don't giggle Scoote...that's a hypothetical) I wouldn't also be telling other people how they should live, testifying in court, and offering myself as an expert. In my view, the only thing this twit is an expert on is hypocrisy.

Frankly, if he were living as a private person, minding his own business and letting others live the way they want to, then he can hire all the rent-boys or whatever he likes, and do whatever he wants. I won't judge...and truly don't care. He can be open about his lifestyle, keep it a secret, whatever....his call.

It's when people try to tell me how to live, legislate my morality and judge me...while acting hypocritically...that I get a little ticked off. Actually, more than a little. I'm glad he's getting a nice dose of public humiliation. He's earned it. I feel a bit bad for the escort, who didn't ask for this kind of publicity. But as far as Rekers goes...I'm ready to hold the juice box on his neck so Lady Snow can get a really good shot.

I agree and I suppose that is the sad, sad crux of the issue.

I am so not an expert in psychological theory, but my understanding of Jung's "shadow aspect" is that people tend to take the things they dislike about themselves and try to reject those things. But they can't really eradicate those qualities within themselves - they can only repress them.

From wikipedia - because I'm an intellectual like that -

According to Jung, the shadow, in being instinctive and irrational, is prone to project: turning a personal inferiority into a perceived moral deficiency in someone else. Jung writes that if these projections are unrecognized "The projection-making factor (the Shadow archetype) then has a free hand and can realize its object--if it has one--or bring about some other situation characteristic of its power." These projections insulate and cripple individuals by forming an ever thicker fog of illusion between the ego and the real world.


I do wish Jung hadn't used images of dark and light to make his point, but I do think he has a point that the things you repress/despise in yourself get projected onto others. I think it goes along with that saying, "The things you despise most in others are the things you despise most in yourself."

It all began with Shakespeare, didn't it? ~ when he wrote something along the lines of: "Methinks thou doth protest too much."

I think it was Shakespeare....

EDITED: I had to go look...yes on the Shakespeare, from Hamlet: The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

Exactly - what surprises me more is that people who really are straight would, say, go to such lengths to oppress gays.

What makes a person shape their entire life around gay people, what the gays are doing, how bad the gays are, etc? I think it's gotta be a pretty short list of motivations.

I rather imagine its a superb money maker. Many church leaders are looking to have a sinful "cause" for the vast majority to rally against. This keeps the folks in attendance at churches and listening on the airways with donations galore. NO ONE has to look at their own sins when the majority is rallied together with a greater sin to combat. "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? Matthew 7:3
