There's a new show on TLC called "My Husband's Not Gay" getting all sorts of attention from all sides. Some people like it, others hate it. We hate it, but not for the same reasons homosexualists hate it.
The whole premise of this program is intellectually dishonest (which is one reason homosexualists hate the show). It depends entirely on semantics. Of course gay and homosexual and same-sex attracted mean the exact same thing. People who make excuses for Mormons, rationalizing that Mormon gays are somehow "moderate" or "celibate" do not have a leg to stand on. (See our previous post: The "Noble" "LDS" "Gay.") Of course these pathetic women's husbands are essentially gay, however you define the word. Basically, they lust, and yes, it's sexual lust, sexual lust after people of their same gender. Having sex with other men, which culminates in sodomy, is what they desire, what they think about, what they fantasize about. If they deny or omit the fact that this attraction is sexual, as they do on this program, then there's no reason for gay rights or special attention or this program, unless you admit they need mental and emotional help. It's just aesthetics. Who cares? All they are saying is that they are attracted to beauty. Everyone with eyes can appreciate beauty or physical attractiveness in both sexes, but decent people don't lust after anybody. They don't sexualize strangers or anybody but their spouse. Decent, faithful people confine their sexuality only to their spouse and in the proper way. If obsessing over beautiful people is "who you are" you have OCD or some other disorder. You need help. But this isn't it. They aren't just looking; they are lusting. It's only the sexual component that makes a person SSA, what we more accurately call SSSA (same-sex sexually attracted). There is no homo without the sex, said Paul Mero. Somewhere along the line the sexual development of these people went awry, or they just plain rebelled against God, and here they are. Whatever else is involved, you can bet same-sex internet pornography and gay associations continue to play a huge role. In the program the gay husbands go to a clothing store and are waited on by flamboyant gays and enter into conversation about gayness. To quote Herman Melville in Billy Budd, "I doubt it's ignorance that motivates their actions."
And yes, using porn and proclaiming to the world that you are same-sex attracted are definitely actions expressing homosexuality. Perhaps more than any other type of sex addiction, these people have to pro-actively feed their lusts to keep them thriving. Think about it. If a person is troubled with SSSA, he will keep it private and resist it and get help and work at repentance and give up his bad habits however long it takes, and above all, protect and support his wife and children if he has them. Only those who are not troubled by their SSSA, who enjoy it, will make it public and/or abandon their families as we've seen happen often. Apparently the newest trend is to not only publicly and continually justify and cling to this proclivity, but to drag your exploited wife and children into advocacy of it as well, as seen on this program and other places. Please note that on this program, contrary to scripture, there is no language regarding SSA being a problem or sin necessary to resist and overcome.
We won't spend much time on the state of these "wives'" intelligence or emotional health. Why you would hitch your wagon to a man who publicly and quite proudly confesses he is not attracted to you, and who makes this known to his children, we can only attribute to some sort of mental, spiritual, and/or emotional disorder. It almost sounds sociopathic, as in no conscience and no empathy. Incredibly, on this program the wives talk as if they actually encourage homosexuality in their husbands; they enjoy having a live-in "girl friend." Yikes. How's that for emasculating your own husband? And yet they make public how often they enjoy sex with their husbands. What? Are they sodomizing their wives? This is all crazy. If these people are happily married and engage in normal healthy sexual relations, this program is a huge hoax.
Be that as it may, men who make this proclivity public, or make a pretense of it, are putting some sort of outrageous selfishness ahead of the virtue, modesty, and protection of their wives and children. They put them in danger of being called homophobes and being ridiculed and persecuted in all sorts of ways. Who would do that but a narcissist? Who would allow it to be done but an ignorant or emotionally ill person? At one point one husband says he is going camping with other apparently gay guys. The wife is understandably uncomfortable with this situation. Duh! It's like sending your straight husband overnight with a bunch of women with illicit sex on their minds! Oh, but she trusts him; it's the other guys she worries will tempt and seduce him. What a dream-world. What self-serving trumped-up sensationalism. It's sounds more and more like a hoax. Whatever it is, the SSA men in the show come across as oversexed adolescents trying to pull the wool over their parents' eyes (read: wives and church).
What we will spend a little time on is what should be obvious to everybody but evidently isn't. No one seems to wonder why these "mixed orientation marriage" people are coming forward. There has to be a why. And we submit that reason in this post. The only reason (perhaps along with emotional or mental illness) these Mormons are making their perverse and unnatural sexual proclivities public, in the case of this TV show in a very big way, is to validate their wickedness and to further the cause. The cause? To bring everybody around to the the false notion that homosexuality in desire and in deed is righteous, permanent, safe, orderly, and healthy instead of what it really is: sinful, changeable, dangerous, disorderly, sick. In other words, they wish to promote homosexuality, whether as it affects one's friends and family or in the wider culture, as here to stay and we better get used to it--- oh no, not just as an "identity" but with all its corresponding behaviors.
Make no mistake: "men burning in their lusts toward one another" is about homosexual behaviors. These lusts quickly escalate and sooner or later are acted upon. This is part of what they want and what they are aiming for, step by step. We believe these actions are now, and will increasingly be, unquestioned, unpunished, winked at, tolerated--- all without a murmur coming from ecclesiastical leaders and fellow church members, even from such wives as appear on this program. It's a don't ask-don't tell deal when it comes to acting out. One example we know of (there are certainly others) is a publicly gay man who lives the lifestyle, i.e. apparently commits sodomy regularly, who is well received and allowed full fellowship and participation in his LDS ward and church services, it appears to the approbation of all. Whether people who push their homosexual presence or people who allow or celebrate homosexuality in their midst are pawns or activists makes no difference in the desired result, which result is perfectly in line with the world's homosexual agenda. Sad to say, modern Mormondom is playing right into the world's Godless hands, though a decade or so behind; perhaps LDS homosexualists needed a little time to think up their pseudo-religious spin and condition the rest of us.
We also will spend a little time on the anti-God, anti-Christ aspect of this movement. God has made the rules for sexual purity and conduct among human beings; all this pro-homosexual nonsense in its divers forms is contrary to those rules. (Everyone needs to read C. S. Lewis's The Abolition of Man, not to mention the Standard Works.) What's worse is when homosexualists practice priestcraft, when they take upon themselves the form of angels of light and become false prophets, wolves in sheep's clothing. These are people who use the pretense of religion to cover their sins. While using the name of Christ, they are essentially anti-Christ because they insist that there is no need for faith or repentance in Christ as Savior, that is, Jesus Christ who can save us from our sins if we repent.
Very little critical thinking will unveil this variety of wickedness, which is well-documented in the Book of Mormon. All the various anti-Christs had one thing in common. It wasn't some sinful behavior or other. It was this idea that there is no need for repentance. This fits right in with the Mormon movement promoting homosexuality. Homosexualists today, Mormon or not, never mention sin and repentance, not where it concerns homosexuality, no, not for claiming the identity, not for the lusts, and increasingly not for the behaviors, if anyone even bothers to define homosexual behaviors.
By the way, this anti-repentance trend is widespread, not just as regards to homosexuality but to all human failings. We're going soft on sin in general. We're losing all sense of sin. Instead of admitting our fallen human state, we're working our heads off puffing ourselves up. After all, we wouldn't want to "lose" anybody! Roger Scruton said, "The triumph of sin comes with our failure to perceive it." Bingo. Pride, the biggest sin of all, is running rampant and leads to all other sins. The result is a bunch of miserable church-going sinners, quite lost, who appear righteous but who have made a false and hellish inner world for themselves, not to mention reserving a spot there eternally unless some serious repentance occurs.
The truth is, God doesn't change. His word on important things is the final word, no matter what sophistries humans of this or that generation come up with to justify and popularize ideas and behaviors that are really very ancient sins.
