Male - Female by Ray Wegner
Various subjects explored regarding male-female relations, like family, sex, relationships, etc. Credentials - Have worked for years almost always harmoniously with fellow female workers - in Edmonton with Lilydale for about 4 years in a department where there were about 100 woman and only around 10 men. Also in Calgary with an employer for about 5 years in a department which was mostly all female. Was a stay at home father for 7 years and took care of the parental needs of my two daughters - they are young adults now. You won't find too many men who have changed more diapers than me. Have studied extensively into Biblical principles governing male-female relations and the family. Am married, but my wife is severely handicapped, and we have overcome some amazing obstacles and the relationship has endured in spite of all kinds of persons and authorities trying to undermine and destroy it. I have other qualifications as well. The role of women in Canadian society has changed a lot in recent decades - what with the onset of the feminist movement, political correctness, the growth of the nanny state and socialism, and the weakening of the husbands and fathers role. Canada today is a female dominated society. You don't believe me ? You think it is a man's world - and if women ran it then it would be a better place ? Well let me give you some facts to prove my point that Canada is a female dominated society, and more a matriarchal society than anything. I am generalizing a bit of course - there are always exceptions. Women in Canada have a lot more power than perhaps they realize.
There are more proofs. The old saying that " its a man's world " just doesn't seem to resonate in the Canada of 2010. Sure men still run a lot of things and have a lot of clout, but basically within Canadian homes and families they have mostly been reduced to just penises and wallets. Well that ain't me folks. I am more than just a penis and a wallet. Some questions regarding women's issues in Canada as of 2010.
Woman as Symbols of Status and A Source of Power I worked at Lilydale in Edmonton years back in the packaging department for almost 4 years straight. There were around 100 women or so depending on the season (summer was much busier), and only about 10 men. We had woman from all over - from Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, Newfoundland and other parts of Canada, some aboriginal woman, plus women from foreign places like Portugal, India, Egypt, Fiji, Germany, Uruguay, Chile, and Jamaica. I deliberately studied the interactions between the people, especially how the men and the women mixed and got along. This experience was very educational, like a University Degree. One thing I learned that stuck out strongly was how most of the men (not all the men) looked at women as some sort of symbol of status. Women being a source of power and status for them - and make them feel a sense of power. To exercise some sort of phallic power over the women, even if it is only in their head. I remember the male Government Meat Inspectors who used to strut through our department regularly, like cocky little roosters. There was one especially who stood out. He would come into our department, making his rounds, and would strut around and head straight for the single blond with the big teats. Supposedly forming some sort of domineering relationship with the single blond woman with the big bosom - was the pinnacle of status for him. It got tiresome over time to see this game being played out day after day. I was just a worker on the production line, and couldn't just get up and leave when these male creeps come strolling through our department. I remember one day making a comment about one of these Government Meat Inspectors after he came through our department and made his inevitable rooster like tour of the women and left....... " well I guess he had his sniff. " The good looking blond with the big teats sure could attract the men. However, when you work with people day after day you get to know them and who wants to make love with a prickly cactus ? We had a Supervisor who played the same old dominating game with the women. I used to do clean-up in our department sometimes during the week at lunch time. So would go down to the Cafeteria after all the other workers came back from their lunch. The Cafeteria was then quite empty, but there happened to be a woman there too. She had an easier and cleaner job sharpening the knives. I got to know her and we began sitting together at lunch and socializing - nothing sexual about it - just friends, and anyways she was married. We enjoyed each other's company. One day this Supervisor come strolling through the Cafeteria making his rounds. He looks at me and the woman disapprovingly. The woman right then and there apologized to this man for sitting with me. She said " (name of this man, which I will not mention) I am sorry. " I never, ever before had a woman apologize to anyone for just sitting with me. Amazing isn't it ? The woman felt threatened by this Supervisor, and she had an easier job, and this man had the power to cause problems for her, and give her a dirty job. He could exile her to the kill line. Another time I was sitting in the Cafeteria with these other woman. This same Supervisor walked through and he sees me sitting with these ladies, and having a good time. Well he walks out of the door, but the door had a window in it. I was sitting with my back to the door, and the one woman was facing the door. I could tell this Supervisor was gesturing his disapproval towards her, because she was gesturing back at him, and clearly showing by her body language that the Supervisor was signaling his strong disapproval of her sitting with and socializing with me. Once again this creepy Supervisor was trying to intimidate the woman to refrain them from socializing with me. He never had the guts to confront me about it, because he knew very well I would not allow him to bully me, so he cowardly went after the woman instead. We had a very beautiful Portuguese married woman in our department, and she was a good worker too. I really liked her, and admired her, but there was nothing sexual about it, since I am a Christian and we are commanded by God not to covet another man's wife. But man was she ever beautiful. Anyways one day I happened to be working beside her on the production line. We got to talking and socializing while working, and were having fun. Hey nothing wrong with socializing on the job, and enjoying your work. Anyways suddenly this woman speaks up and mentions her husband. She said to me straight out and unexpectedly " my husband will go after me - not after you. " She was worried her husband might somehow find out she was socializing with me at work, and cause her trouble ! How ? Well she worked with a lot of other Portuguese women in our department and my theory is that some of these women, who were friends of hers, socialized with her and her family outside of work. So my guess is that she might have been worried that if she enjoyed my company too much at work, some of these friends of hers could mention this to her husband, and she would get in trouble with him. You know - what kind of man would be so insecure that he would try and even control who his wife socializes with while she is at her work site ?? Why should a woman have to fear simply socializing with men at work ? While I worked there my attitude was to look at the person first. To deal with the woman first and foremost as persons - not as sexual creatures. Sure we are sexual creatures and you cannot ignore it, but for me I looked at the human being first, not at what was between their legs first. I also tried to act respectfully with the women. This is because years before I happened to have this job at Canada Packers, and I was hired about the same time as this tall, attractive, young, single brunette woman. We worked together. We were kind of stuck together. We worked the night shift at the start - right across from each other night after night. The men would come around constantly - not to see me, but to get their sniff of the woman, and sometimes to feel her up. It got sickening. She seemed to not mind, and kind of milked the attention. One night she plastered on this perfume and it was so strong my eyes started to water. Later on we were transferred to the day shift and again I got stuck working with her. There was this older man there, who went after her and she did not seem to mind, and it was a sexual, domineering, creepy relationship, and it nauseated me, and I had to put up with this crap day after day. I asked to be transferred out of that department, back to the beef cutting department. So when I got this job at Lilydale with all the woman, I vowed to myself that I would never act like that attractive brunette did with the men at Canada Packers. I never slept around with any of the woman at Lilydale, even though I had numerous opportunities to do so.
Institutionalized Domination and Abuse of Woman around the World Genuine Christianity does not condone subjugation and submission of woman to men. It does not condone abuse of women. However, there is a lot of false Christianity, where Churches have strayed from Biblical principles governing the relationship between the sexes and in the family. God's form of government in the family. If we will follow God's standards and rule then we will follow the Biblical form of government within the family as spelt out in the New testament. These Biblical family principles, and laws are the following:
Ephesians 5:25 " Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; " Ephesians 5:22-23 " Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the savior of the body. " Ephesians 6:1-4 " Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. " (1 Peter 3:1-8) (1Corinthians 11:3) These are spiritual laws. God Himself will not force people to obey them, but there are spiritual consequences to not obeying them. Mankind has free moral agency. Therefore human governments have no business trying to enforce these spiritual principles (governing the family) through the laws they pass and enforce, since mankind has been given free moral agency by God, and even God will not force people to obey these laws. Also this matter of a wife respecting her husband - does in no way include other men. Other men, like an Uncle, Grandfather, Father, Neighbour or Boss - have no legitimate right to act like a husband towards them. Sure, if their boss at work is a man then they need to respect the bosses authority to direct the workforce, but that does not give them any right to exercise illegitimate authority over the woman. Women do not need to respect illegitimate authority from anyone. A lot of men are out to dominate women, and will illegitimately seek to form some kind of dominant relationship over female associates, or relatives. A wife is only obligated to respect their husbands authority and other men have no right to exercise illegitimate authority over them. And anyways even the husband is supposed to serve and love his wife and children.
Islamic Countries In a good number of Islamic countries the subjugation and abuse of women is written into the laws, like in nations like Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran. The problem is the combination of church and state, where the governments of the Islamic States, work hand in hand with Muslim clerics to force Islam, and Sharia Law upon the people. Here are just some examples of how poorly woman are treated in Saudi Arabia. Apparently there has been some movement for reform and granting woman more rights, but the pace of change has been glacial:
There are varying degrees of abuse of women in Islamic countries, some much less than others. Saudi Arabia is a particularly glaring example however.
Female Infanticide In 2005, 90 million women were estimated to be "missing" in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, China, India, Pakistan, South Korea and Taiwan alone, possibly due to sex-selective abortion. It is estimated that by 2020 there could be more than 35 million young " surplus males " in China and 25 million in India. Their female counterparts will have been murdered through selective abortions - female infanticide. " Nearly 100 million women across Asia have ' disappeared ' because of a huge and growing gender gap that has fatally deprived them of access to health care and food and has led to widespread abortions of female fetuses, according to a U.N. Report. A global war against baby girls is in progress. In many countries, the selective abortion of female fetuses is very common, and the death rates of girls under 5 are unnaturally high. The Economist magazine accurately has called these practices " gendercide. " The summary continues, " China and India together account for more
than 85 million of the nearly 100 million ' missing ' women estimated to
have died from discriminatory treatment in health care, nutrition access
or pure neglect – or because they were never born in the first place.
" One United Nations estimate says that between 113 million and 200 million woman around the world are " missing. " Every year, between 1.5 million and 3 million women and girls lose their lives as a result of gender-based violence or neglect. As the Economist, which reported on a policy paper, put it last November, " Every two to four years the world looks away from a victim count on the scale of Hitler's Holocaust. " Where are the feminists in Canada and the United States who have promoted free access to abortions by women - where are they in the face of this mass murder of girls ? Where are the radical feminists of Canada and the United States in the face of this gendercide ?
Abuse of Woman and Girls in Africa According to David Littman, of the Association for World Education, the term "traditional or customary practices" is a shameful euphemism for crime against women. Female genital mutilation is performed every year on more than 1 million - perhaps up to 2 million female babies, young girls, and women in 30 countries in Africa. Violations of women's rights escalates the rate of HIV infections throughout the continent. Sexual oppression combined with a high biological receptiveness of viral transmission, put women at risk. As a consequence, the violence against women threatens to destroy whole communities. A member of the Research, Action and Information Network
for the Bodily Integrity of Women, Ms. Toubia, says there is tremendous
denial in Africa about the issue of violence against women and girls.
Africans have created a defensiveness about any criticism of their
society. They are very proud and they do not want to change their cultures
or social systems. That philosophy is "a recipe for suicide",
she says. World-wide, women between the ages of 15 and 24 also
account for half of new HIV infections. In South Africa, reports Amnesty International, about one woman is killed by her husband or boyfriend every six hours.
Systemic, Senseless, Political Segregation of the Sexes - this causes misunderstandings between the sexes, and can be used to control, isolate, manipulate and take advantage of women. I find myself in the minority in my strong condemnation and opposition to needless segregation of the sexes. I am not talking about integrating public toilets you know. There are areas in our society where natural, non-political segregation of the sexes happens, and which will continue to happen, and is to be expected. Racial segregation is supposedly wrong, and universally condemned. You may know about the civil rights movement in the United States and the elimination of apartheid in South Africa. However, there is a much deeper and more damaging system of segregation that has been going on for eons of time, and is still going on right in front of our noses and few are speaking up against this injustice. This is the senseless segregation of the sexes. In some countries it is worse than in others, but it exists almost everywhere, and is very strong in Canada too. Let me examine this systemic, political segregation of the sexes here in Canada. Most of the segregation in my judgment is politically motivated in nature. It is to the advantage of many of the powers-that-be to keep women isolated and segregated in their gender ghettoes, because it is then easier for them to control, manipulate, take advantage of, and use women as tools in their political games. It is easier for authorities, control freaks and men to isolate the women through segregation, and therefore manipulate the situation and deprive others of opportunities of access to these women. It is then easier to keep woman down, isolate them, keep their wages lower, and deprive them of various opportunities they would get in a more free, integrated environment. Some Examples The Feminist Movement It is easier for a small group of radical feminists to use and control other woman to help further their own political agenda, if they can isolate and segregate many woman from the men. The women who happen to be weaker, or have less power in society are then easier to control and manipulate by a small group of powerful feminists, like feminist Lawyers, Judges, Social Workers, Nurses and so on. The weaker women are dominated and manipulated to further the political agenda of the entrenched feminist ruling elite. The system can and is manipulated by these women. Women in positions of social power, who are strongly feminist routinely manipulate the authorities to persecute others, particular men like me, who are not politically correct, and who are honest. They will use and manipulate the Police to intimidate and bully the men, if they can. It has happened to me. This is a serious abuse of power, when the Police are manipulated and used as tools to persecute and intimidate innocent persons. And the problem is that so many men in positions of authority, are suckers for woman, and will go along with them and side with the woman - just because they are woman - not because of the need for justice. Politics once again. Lesbians are separatists who support and promote segregation of the sexes - once again for political reasons. If they allowed other lesbians to mix with men too much, these woman might actually start to like the men, and therefore stop being lesbians, and then be out of their control and influence. Gender Segregation on the Job Some jobs will always to male or female bastions, due to the natural, normal differences between men and woman. Construction for example is dominated by men, and this is to be expected, because generally speaking men are stronger than women physically. However, there are some jobs within construction that women can do just as well and maybe better then men, like operating machinery, which requires little physical strength. I feel that much of the gender segregation on the job has to do more with entrenched, backward societal expectations and prejudices, or politics - than with something natural. The narrow idea that certain work is man's work, or woman's work. This may be true in some areas, but not in most cases. I would prefer an integrated holistic society. Have you looked around and seen how many all women departments within businesses there are ? How so many departments are mostly all male ? How so many office workers are female ? And how this needless, artificial, political separation of the sexes leads to misunderstandings, and divisions within business and on the job ? Segregation naturally breeds misunderstandings, prejudices, lack of empathy for the other persons point of view, discrimination, and is a tool used by manipulators and control freaks to isolate a certain group and control them better. Gender Politics Some women only want to be equal with men when it is to their advantage. When equality means sharing the hard and dirty jobs then quite a few women will say they are women after all, and that sort of work is a man's job. It can work the other way too, where men play this game to just get out of doing things like changing diapers. Its women's work goes the excuse. I have witnessed constantly this tiresome gender politics being played out time, and time again. Will people ever learn to give up their stupid backward political games ? Let me give you some personal illustrations of gender politics: 1. Riding transit here in Calgary. Notice how the sexes are segregated. Mostly women in the front of the bus, and mostly men sitting in the back. If a woman gets on the bus, she will usually choose to sit beside another woman, if there are no empty seats. Golly lady I am not going to rape you, and I won't try to feel you up. I remember riding the bus and getting to know this one lady. I liked her. Naturally the other riders on the bus noticed this friendship, and some were jealous. One day this black, male creep sat next to this woman on the bus, and I could see what he was doing was bordering on sexual harassment of her. I never intervened in this matter even though I thought about it and could have, because I felt if I did this might just cause the woman to start defending the creep. He sat next to her and moved close, and it looks like he was trying to establish some creepy dominate-submissive relationship with her. She deliberately moved as far away from him in her seat as possible without actually getting up. Nothing was stopping her from getting up and leaving the situation. It is unfortunate we are plagued by so many male creeps and bums like this black man, who are not man enough or mature enough to establish a healthy relationship with women. They just go around looking for some woman to take advantage of. After this incident I noticed the woman was very unapproachable, and it had been very difficult for me to make contact with her in the first place. If men stopped abusing women - then women would have better attitudes towards men, and wouldn't be so paranoid and fearful. Unfortunately we are living in the real world, not the ideal world, and there are too many male creeps and bums out there, who can't be trusted. 2. I've witnessed repeatedly the gender politics woman play. Take seating arrangements in places like Lunch rooms and Cafeterias. For example a woman has just been hired - few know her. I am sitting by myself at a separate table, and this new female worker is sitting alone by herself at a separate table. The other empty tables in the room are occupied. I do not know her, so do not push myself on her, and just want a rest. In walks a fellow female worker or workers, whom I have worked with for years, and maybe know better than members of my own family. Where do these women usually sit ? Rarely with me, but for political reasons in most cases they will sit with the new woman whom they don't even know from Eve. Gender politics at play. This is a form of self-segregation followed by many woman, but not all. Even if the workplace is a mixed one, many of these woman will gravitate to and cling to and hang around with their mainly female colleagues. And then they dream up all kind of weird impure thoughts about the men, while segregating themselves in their little gender ghetto. Segregation is not only physical in nature, but it also exists in the mind. 3. The Little All Woman Cliques This is a very common practice by women in various situations, and is in my judgment too often political, and designed to keep the other women in line. Woman are usually more concerned (for political reasons) with offending other women, than with offending men like me. Also if they sit together and socialize together then this might serve to mitigate any gossip or lies about themselves that are spread among the women. It seems to be more dangerous socially for a woman to fall out with the other women, then fall out with the men, and it looks to me that most women fear more the disapproval of the other women than of the men. Woman are usually better then men with communicating among themselves, sharing information and working together. Men find it extremely difficult to penetrate and break into these little informal all woman's clubs. The women usually distance themselves from the men, and try to isolate a man, and push them aside, unless they can perhaps exploit or use the man for their own purposes. Politics again.
Sexual Abuse of Women
I was driving home and as
I was turning into the back alley I notice a man and woman fighting on the
side walk. I park my car and was prepared to ignore the matter, but I hear the woman yelling out HELP, HELP. It was not a
scream of HELP, but nevertheless the words help were there and loud enough to hear. So I walk over
and the man is trying to huge and
kiss and feel the woman up, and she was protesting. I noticed the woman was
very drunken, and the man was also under the influence, but much less so. The
man was a large young black man in his 20's and the woman was also young in her
20's and attractive, with high heels, taller, Caucasian, and with kind of
reddish hair. Now these situations are always tricky. I did not know what was the relationship between the black
man and the woman. So what I did was say to the woman - " If you
need my help you have to ask me. " I said this
twice. The man stopped trying to hug her, but the woman was completely
silent. There was no response from her whatsoever - not a word -
nothing. The black
man says - " Oh she is just drunk " and proceeds to
grab the woman's arms, and drape them over his back and try and carry her on
his back. Then the woman and him just start walking along the
sidewalk. I got angry and told the black man to " Grow up
you fool. " I also yelled that they could be reported for
this. Then the black man responds and says something like " I was
born in this country and can't be deported. " I yell back saying I never said
they could be deported, but they could be reported for being
drunk in public. This is really interesting when the black man thought he heard
the words " deported " when I said the word "
reported. " To me it shows the mentality of the man - with
his ridiculous persecution complex. I did not follow them. I figured that if the woman really was a
genuine victim then she would have accepted my offer of help. I
later called the Police and reported the incident. I did not step in
physically to separate the man from the woman, because I
did not know the people, and did not know the relationship between them.
Would have physically confronted the man,
if the woman had asked me specifically for help. Was prepared to assist
the woman, and would have gladly brought her to my home,
and given her a lift home, or helped her to call the Police and report the
matter. If this was a sexual assault I was there to help,
and was not concerned if the man was armed or how big he was. But
I was not prepared to interfere unless specifically requested to do so. And I
had asked her twice " If you need my help you have to
ask me. " She did not respond with a - YES I Need Your
Help. She was silent.
My hunch is that she was just playing games and
so put herself in this situation where now she was being abused. The black
man was just abusing another white woman, who perhaps wouldn't
recognize a decent man if one fell in her lap. The country is
literally crawling with these abusive, exploitive male creeps, who
take advantage of weak, loose women. Various races of men abuse
woman, but there seems to be a disproportionate number of black males, who
prey on woman and sexually abuse vulnerable, weak, loose women and so many
of these black men (if they can really be called men) are irresponsible
layabouts. I am not prejudiced. I am not a racist. My wife is from Viet Nam,
and my Dad was an immigrant. I am just telling you the truth. However, I am not
politically correct. So I do not go
out of my way to kiss the rear of the ethnics (or anyone for that matter) and
particularly not the ass of the black man. There are victims and
then there are victims. I have sympathy for woman who are genuine victims of
sexual abuse. They should be helped as much as possible, because them kind
of victims actually want to get out from the abusive situation. However,
there are also the woman who are just playing games, and who go from one
abusive male bum to another. These kind of women usually won't go with a
decent man. They subconsciously gravitate to abusive male creeps and
bums.
Same-Sex Marriages and Homosexuality
Homosexual Myths
Biblical Perspective on Homosexuality Myth They Were Born Gay
The Writer's Encounters
With Some Homosexuals Let us dispel some myths and false assumptions regarding
homosexuality and clear up some of the confusion on the subject. 1. Homosexuals and the many who support homosexuality (but do
not practice it themselves) have made a serious false assumption or error in
logic - the error in logic has to do with their confusion regarding the
different kinds of love and the different meanings of the word " love.
" The problem is that homosexuals, and many who support
homosexuality mistakenly confuse brotherly and sisterly love with sexual love.
There are three kinds of love and their Greek names are Eros, Phila and Agape. Eros is the attraction and erotic, sexual love between a man and woman. Phila can be compared to brotherly, or sisterly love. Agape is God's love for us, and our love towards Him. Where the homosexuals are confused is that they may have a warm feeling
towards someone of the same sex. This is wonderful and perfectly natural.
Brotherly and sisterly love is to commended and applauded. However, this is
Phila - it is not the sexual erotic love called Eros. However, the homosexuals
confuse that kind of love with sexual, or erotic love. So they get involved with
sex with those of the same sex, confusing brotherly and sisterly love with sexual love. Eros, or erotic love is normal and natural between men and women - the
preferred relationship is a committed one between consenting adults - it is
called marriage. Phila can easily be seen on athletic teams. I recall the men's baseball
team I
used to play for in our little community. We had a great spirit on our team.
There was a great male camaraderie. We would slap each other on the back, and
when someone hit a home run during a game - we would be all over him in
congratulations. I loved those guys, and I am sure most of the other players
felt the same. However, that sort of love is Phila. If someone would have suggested there was anything
homosexual, or sexual about our relationships we would have laughed them to
scorn. It was just good old male bonding, and male camaraderie. There wasn't a
single thing sexual about it. Yet this is the kind of love that many homosexuals
would interpret as homosexuality. How sad and twisted such people
are. Agape is the kind of love God has towards us, and our love towards God. It
refers to a love of someone greater than us, like our country for example.
However, it probably has more to do with God. 2. Myth that about 10 % of the population is gay. There is no proof of
this. The actual percentage is probably around 1 % of the population. Recent figures from the Canadian Community Health Survey released towards
the end of June, 2004 said that one per cent of Canadians identified themselves
as homosexual. Naturally the gay establishment is up in arms and disputing the
figures. They want us to continue to believe their propaganda (lies) that
around 10 % of the population in Canada is gay. There is no proof of this. This writers estimate of about 1 % of our population being gay in Canada
has been confirmed to be accurate by this recent poll. 3. Myth that people are born gay, and this is genetically
predetermined. This a huge piece of propaganda that we are just supposed to
accept without question. The argument many homosexuals will make is that they are born that way.
Many will argue that it is genetic, and so they are just
naturally sexually attracted to members of the same sex. Many gays will tell you
homosexuality is predetermined genetically, and there is nothing they can do
about it - they were just born that way and have no choice regarding their
sexual orientation. Now it may indeed be the case that certain persons have an attraction towards
members of the same sex. There may even be sexual connotations to that
attraction. We all have certain weaknesses or predispositions. However, that
does not mean we must simply give in to these weaknesses. For example, alcoholism tends to run in families, because certain persons
have an inherited weakness, or susceptibility towards alcohol addiction. Does
this mean they are helpless, and cannot stop themselves from becoming drunks and
alcoholics ? No of course not. People can make choices - they can choose to go
cold turkey and stay away from booze, if they have an inherited weakness in that
area. They can choose to stay away from people who drink to excess. No one is
forcing them to get drunk. Some people have addictive personalities, but that doesn't mean they
absolutely have no choice, if they are addicted to drugs, alcohol or nicotine.
That doesn't mean they are totally helpless to stop themselves from being
addicted to things that harm them like cigarettes and hard drugs. People can
fight these weaknesses. They can choose not to smoke. They can choose to be
addicted to things that won't harm them so quickly, like being addicted to caffeine
or chocolates. It is the same with homosexuals - they can choose to stay away
from it - even though they might have a weakness in this area. We are not
helpless victims. Another example is sex drive. Some people are born with a stronger sexual
drive then others. Does this mean they are helpless victims of this inherited
tendency, and are compelled to resort to rape, incest, bigamy or prostitution,
or consorting with prostitutes ? No certainly not. People have choices. If they have such a strong sex
drive then why not get married and have twelve kids ? There are ways of legally
dealing with a strong sex drive. Another example is tempers. Some of us have a short fuse - very hot tempers. There is good evidence to suggest this is an inherited
characteristic, although environmental factors may indeed play a large role. I
feel it is mainly an inherited matter, because we can easily see how certain
species of animals are more mean or aggressive than others. Take bulls for
example. Hereford bulls are much more mild and gentle compared to Holstein
bulls. A lot of farmers have been killed by Holstein bulls. Take the fighting
bulls they breed in countries like Spain. The meanness and aggressiveness is
bred into them. So perhaps you are from a family that has hot tempers. Does this now give you
the license to beat up people who get you angry ? Does this give you consent to
beat your wife or husband if they get you angry ? Does this permit you to
whip your kids ? Does this make it okay if you murder someone, because you are
just a helpless victim of your anger ? No of course not. You can learn to
control that hot temper, and even use it for useful purposes. We are not helpless victims of our passions, as so many homosexuals will try
to persuade you we are. And just because we might have certain impulses or
predispositions doesn't mean we need give into them, and it doesn't mean we
cannot control our passions. If we all claimed to be helpless victims of our
passions (as so many homosexuals do when they claim to have been born gay, and
helpless to control it) then society as we know it would cease to exist,
and we would have complete anarchy. 4. Myth that homosexuality is natural. Many gays will try to convince
you that homosexuality is normal. In reality with nature's children the most important thing is reproduction.
Animals in nature are wired, or geared towards reproduction. The survival of the
species is absolutely dependent upon the reproduction of the species. You need a
male and female for that. You never see in nature two animals of the same sex
going off by themselves and forming a sexual bond. How on earth would the
species reproduce that way ? 5. Myth that marriage is the invention of mankind, and mankind can -
through the laws their governments make redefine and alter the institution of
marriage. So people argue that homosexuals should be allowed to marry. In reality it is God who joins a man and woman together in marriage. How ?
God joins them together through sexual intercourse. Matthew 19:3-6 " The Pharisees also came unto him,
tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife
for every cause? " And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which
made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this
cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and
they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one
flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
" It is God who joins a man and woman together, not the state. God joins the
man and woman together in marriage through sexual intercourse. No government of man has any authority to alter the institution of marriage
by legitimizing same-sex relationships and declaring them as marriages. They are
not the ones who invented marriage. They are not the ones who join a man and
woman together. 6. Myth that the homosexual lifestyle is safe, and anal sex is
normal. In reality the homosexual lifestyle is unsafe, and homosexual sex is responsible
for a lot of transmission of diseases such as aids. Additionally the homosexual
lifestyle encourages promiscuity, and hopping from one partner to another is
another perfect way to spread diseases like aids. The anus was never intended for a man's penis. On the other hand a committed heterosexual relationship is much more conducive
to health. There is little chance of the spread of sexually transmitted
diseases, in such a committed relationship. Additionally statistics show us that
married persons in general tend to live longer. It is important to realize
that the homosexual act is perfectly legal in Canada. Homosexuality and the
homosexual act has been legalized years ago. As well the Supreme Court has
interpreted the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms in such a way as to
read into it - sexual orientation. Therefore marriage by gays is just a natural result and extension of
the evolution of gay rights within Canada. People have to
realize that within the context of Canada and the Supreme Court interpretation
of the Canadian Constitution, gay
rights are pretty well entrenched, and will be virtually impossible to alter.
Same-sex marriages are just the next logical step in granting homosexuals the
same rights as heterosexual couples. This is because of the Canadian Charter of
Human Rights, which the Canadian Supreme Court has so interpreted as to include
within it sexual orientation (i.e. homosexuality) as a
charter right. Once they get the right to marry - they
won't even stop there. They are out for full and equal rights with heterosexual
couples and they won't reject special rights, if the authorities are dumb enough to
grant them privileges (and folks we are cursed with a lot of very dim bulbs
within government). There will be more and more demands. In the process the
institution of marriage will have been severely weakened here in Canada. It
is time to stop this madness. Biblical Teachings
Regarding Homosexuality It is absurd to even suggest that God in the Bible condones
homosexuality. Homosexuality is clearly labeled as a sin and a perversion - in both
the Old and New Testaments.
However, the argument many professing Christians will make in defense of homosexuality
is that even though the Bible condemns homosexuality in the Old Testament we are
under the New Covenant, and now have only one commandment (in their opinion),
which is to love one another, and so if homosexuals love each other then the
relationship has God's blessings (goes the twist) . However these people forget
that homosexuality is thoroughly condemned in the New Testament. Romans 1:21-28 " Because that, when they knew God, they glorified
Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations,
and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they
became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made
like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping
things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of
their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed
the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than
the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up
unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that
which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of
the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that
which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error
which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their
knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are
not convenient; " 1 Corinthians 6:9 (from Living Bible) " Don't you know that those
doing such things have no share in the Kingdom of God ? Don't fool yourselves.
Those who live immoral lives, who are idol worshippers, adulterers or HOMOSEXUALS
- will have no share in His Kingdom. Neither will thieves, or greedy people,
drunkards, slanderers or robbers. " 1 Timothy 1:10-11 (from Living Bible) " Yes, these laws are made to
identify as sinners all who are immoral and impure: HOMOSEXUALS, kidnappers,
liars, and all others who do things that contradict the glorious Good news of
our blessed God, whose messenger I am. " 2 Peter 2:4-8 " For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but
cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be
reserved unto judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth
person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the
ungodly; And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes condemned
them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should
live ungodly; And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the
wicked: For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed
his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds; " Jude 1: 7 " Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in
like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange
flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
" Genesis 19: 1-13 " And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and
Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he
bowed himself with his face toward the ground; And he said, Behold now, my
lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and
wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said,
Nay; but we will abide in the street all night. " And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and
entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread,
and they did eat. But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of
Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every
quarter: And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which
came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them (rape
them). " And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly. Behold now, I have two
daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you,
and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for
therefore came they under the shadow of my roof. " And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came
in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee,
than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to
break the door. But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house
to them, and shut to the door. And they smote the men that were at the door of
the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves
to find the door. " And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and
thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them
out of this place: For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is
waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy
it. " Genesis 19:23-25 " The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered
into Zoar. Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire
from the LORD out of heaven; And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain,
and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
" Leviticus 18:22 " Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with
womankind: it is abomination. " Leviticus 20:13 " If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a
woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to
death; their blood shall be upon them. " Deuteronomy 23:17 " There shall be no whore of the daughters of
Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel. " 2 Kings 23:7 " And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that
were by the house of the LORD, where the women wove hangings for the grove.
" 1 Kings 14:24 " And there were also sodomites in the land: and they
did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out
before the children of Israel. " The evidence is overwhelming. The Bible absolutely condemns homosexuality in
both the Old and New Testaments. There can be no doubt whatsoever.
The Writer's Encounters
With Homosexuals
When I was young and adventuresome
back in 1969 - I decided to travel East. Well through an amazing set of
youthful blunders and miscalculations, I found myself homeless on Queen St. East
in Toronto and sitting on the front steps of the Sally Anne. Had only four cents
to my name, and a postage stamp in those days cost 5 cents. Well
it so happened that an older fellow comes up to me, and started being friendly.
He realized my homeless hungry state, and offered to buy me a meal. Well having
not eaten for a spell, I was not going to look a gift horse in the mouth. He
takes me to the cafe and buys me the meal, and starts talking about sex - and
not the male-female stuff you know. He suggested I move in with him. Well
I was not very comfortable with this situation, so decided to give him the slip.
I told him that I would go back to the Salvation Army and see if they would take
me in first. He assured me that if they had no room for me then I could move in
with him. Well I leave him on the front steps, and go in. I go in and quickly
walk out the back door, and get out of that place fast. Slept in the park, until
I managed to get temporary work, and could afford a place to stay of my
own. This true life story illustrates
how some of these homosexuals prey on the weak and vulnerable. People like
that are predators - and can easily lure vulnerable, and unstable men into the
homosexual lifestyle. And add into this mix, the propaganda by much of the
media, and by many of our educators that homosexuality is normal - and you can
see how easily some young vulnerable men can be lured into this lifestyle. Another
personal experience has to do with the job I had in Edmonton at Lilydale
Cooperative in the early 1980's, a poultry processing plant. There was this deaf
mute fellow whose name was Edward (he could not speak, or talk), who worked on
the kill line. Many of the workers referred to him as Edward the pervert. I
had nothing against Edward as such, and we at work pretty well all accepted the
situation and his open homosexuality. I even got to be sort of friends with him,
and we could carry on a pretty good conversation through gestures, and writing
things down on a piece of paper. The
problem was the sexual harassment that I had to suffer from this man. We had a
men's locker room, and showers. Sometimes I would work on the kill line in the
live hanging department, and would at times take a shower after my shift.
Sometimes this homo would leer at me, and make loud lewd noises - he could make
a few harsh sounds, but could not speak. I really don't like, or appreciate that
sort of thing. I kept rebuffing his
sexual advances. One day some of us were working in Edward's area on the kill
line. There was a black man working there that day, and I saw the homosexual
feel him up right in view of me and the others workers there - and I also saw
the black man feel up the homosexual. Each just going right up from the rear and
feeling each other's testicles. Edward comes up to me, and indicated he wanted
to feel me up too - well I wave my fist in his face. The message was quite clear
- stay away from me you creep or you will get a fist in the teeth. Well
he was not pleased. So he goes to the foreman, and gesturing and making his loud
ah, ah, ah noises very loud - he was pointing towards the door and in effect
telling the foreman that he did not want me working in his area anymore. I
suppose if he can't sexually assault me, he didn't want me working there. The
foreman just sort of chuckled, and did nothing. One
day I was either on my break, or on lunch. Was sitting in the locker room on the
floor, eating my lunch. Edward comes by and makes a lewd sexual advance towards
me. I get angry, and kick at him as he walks by - to tell him forcefully to take
off. Well he gets very angry. I was sitting on the floor with my legs stretched
out, and the homosexual was standing. What he did was kick at me, and he jumps
right on my leg, and on my knee with both feet - in a deliberate attempt to
injure. I did have a sore knee for awhile after that, and was limping a
bit. Management and the union did
nothing to curb this matter. One day we were either on
our coffee break, or on lunch. Our department had about 100 women, and only
about 10 men. Well Edward comes into the cafeteria, and stands there in front of
all the women, and grabs his crotch and makes some noises as if to say - go to
hell all you women. Most of the women just laughed. This happened more than
once. Edward must have assumed at the
start that I was gay myself, since I was single, and did not sleep around with
any of the woman at work. He probably did not realize I was a Christian, and just
did not take advantage of the numerous opportunities I had to sleep around with
women from work. I was looking for a marriage mate at the time, but it was so
hard to find someone, who was religiously compatible with me, and with similar
religious beliefs to mine. You know I was (and still think I am) a pretty
dedicated Christian, and I take the biblical laws regarded sexual matters very
seriously. I do not believe in uncommitted sex. I am still very strict with
myself regarding sexual matters. I
have changed my views a bit on some matters regarding sex over the years (go to Life),
but certainly know very, very clearly that certain sexual matters like
homosexuality, incest, and sleeping with another man's wife are wrong - and I
will never change my views in that regard. Sure
there may be some gray areas of biblical law regarding sexual matters. Yes there
are different interpretations, by different people, and sure we all don't
understand and perceive everything about God's laws and ways in the identical
way. God is not a prude - after all He is the one who invented sex. However,
there are certain sexual areas where there can be no doubt that this it is
morally wrong - and homosexuality definitely falls within that category. Anyways
I sort of became friends
with him, but certainly not any kind of close friend. One day I believe I saw
the real Edward - in regards to this sexual orientation thing. He was in his
work area, and there was a woman worker there, and me. I could see Edward and
the woman were warm towards each other, so I gestured to him and her to have a
hug. Gesturing for Ed to hug the woman. Edward put his arm around
the woman - in a friendly hug, but of course we are sexual creatures. I could
see that it was for him a real struggle to muster up enough courage to hug that
woman. I never saw him do that ever before with a woman. It was a real struggle
for him - I could see from the fear and doubt that shone in his eyes, but he did
it ! I could see Edward felt good about himself, after that encounter. I
felt sort of proud of him. How sad it
is that people like him are condemned to live an unhealthy
and sexually unproductive lifestyle, when they could be helped to recognize the
negative image they have of their sexuality. When they could be helped to have
more sexual self-confidence to form a committed sexual relationship with someone
of the opposite sex, while giving up homosexuality (I do not support or promote
bisexuality folks). And where they could be helped to even have kids and
raise a family - with a Daddy, a real female Mommy and the children of this
union.
