Christian, climate change and same-sex sex
December 25, 2009
Since there is credible evidence that humans are able to affect the climate, surely the prudent course for all would be to work to do that. And the rewards to be reaped are great indeed, new energy sources from advanced technology, while the pain (and which must also be seen as a punishment as a people) is relative slight and mainly consists in the Americans adopting a subdued consumption and concentrate on putting more resources to help others, including their own children. A simpler life is an easier life.
In the context of that common, prudent (counting also the children) endeavor we need to take advantage of what may be the greatest possible gift of God to a world troubled by overpopulation relative to resources, and which we would not have even conceived of except by the declaration of the conservative Christians. According to them God has so fashion humans that they are able to choose as to how they shall have their sexual fun with a partner. These good and perhaps insightful people (the conservative Christians) have produced this as an interpretation equal to dogma, The human has a choice as to how he can have his fun. That’s a fact of the existence of man according to these conservatives..
Great, and now let’s put it all together and think of a world where it were possible to influence sexual preference, e.g., showing lots of commercials with two same-sex lovers, and in the movies, etc. The means could be made for the rational encouplement of two people sexually, i.e., introducing them to lots of fun in ways that are compatible, e.g., a natural top and a natural bottom. If we were able to influence the fun of people who would be able to be naturally wedded (sexually and otherwise) and at the same time provide them (and all people) with the skills and nurture the spirits of them emotionally and morally.
I think there will always be a need for a sexual outlet in a confined society, namely a marriage (a legal connection entailing the safe confession of one’s mind to another person) of some sort or number, and will best be left at two, although Jesus speaks of “three†together as one. It is necessary that the human must express himself totally in order to achieve to his capacity, but this is not conducive to large societies, and so it is prudent and expedient to limit intimate communes (like traditional marrage but expended to three people, and not a man and two women, or a woman and two men, or three women, but rather three people.
As far as the scriptural evidence will have it, this is easy enough to understand as expressing the liberty of the gentile Christian (subject to no law, but wedded to the law of love), and so where the scriptures contain no laws at all, and so it really doesn’t matter what Paul thought as far more importantly how he thought. First the law of the love, then expediency in application to given conditions, e.g., as a slave, as a master, as a husband, etc. Paul considered same-sex sex as a deliberate affront to nature and to nature’s God (because children were in short supply), and so would we if that where the object today. But the object today is someone who has simply chosen to follow his own fun (in the company and context of a committed community). He was appalled by long hair on men and lots of things and so he would be given his understanding of things. What was then a curse in his eyes, i.e., using sex for fun instead of having needed and God ordained (“be fruitful and multiplyâ€) it for kids, is now a blessing for which all Christians should be sincerely thankful.
Let’s see. First we have the liberty to choose our own sexual orientation, and then we encourage orientations expedient for the time, and bring the population under control. It certainly is more palatable than abortions. That then is the rational and expedient thing to do.
The conservative Christians admit the human is free to choose his sexuality, and, if he is a follower of Paul (the strongest basis for the entire Christian faith), then he will use his head and realize that since countless examples prove the decency and good-neighborliness of homosexuals and that they are no more afflicted morally than left handed people, they know that this is something different from what Paul was talking about, and is something that we should have always been praying for, a natural curb to overpopulation, without doing anything whatsoever, but just letting two or three people have fun the way they want to. They should rejoice and announce the good news the homosexual (the person choosing same-sex sex) is actually an answer to our prayer, namely God, help us getting into control of ourselves, for the sake of the children if for no other reason.
So then: let prudently and rational begin reshaping our world in the face of the coming calamity that faces us and most certainly our children. And let’s turn to same-sex sex as a non-coerced solution to this problem and seek to promote it (at least for the time being) through out our societies. And let the Protestant Christians lead the way and promote both as expedient means to our overall goal of a world fit to raise children to be happy and healthy.
