"Pope’s Christmas message warns gender theory is a denial of God and the Bible"
This is perhaps the most important posting on this blog yet. When the Holy Father is concerned about civilizations understanding of what it is to be human - that ought to raise one's eye brows just a little bit. This pope is no idiot. Just a few highlights from this article that especially caught my eye...
"The gender theory, which is behind the homosexual revolution and the attack on the family was highlighted in Pope Benedict’s Christmas message to Vatican prelates this morning. “There is no denying the crisis that threatens,” the family “to its foundations – especially in the Western world,” he said.
[...it is now becoming clear that the very notion of being – of what being human really means – is being called into question. According to “the ‘gender’ philosophy,” explained the Pope, “sex is no longer a given element of nature, that man has to accept and personally make sense of: it is a social role that we choose for ourselves, while in the past it was chosen for us by society. People dispute the idea that they have a nature, given by their bodily identity, that serves as a defining element of the human being. They deny their nature and decide that it is not something previously given to them, but that they make it for themselves."
When people start questioning what "human nature" is - that is a real problem that will eventually effect human life, legally and otherwise. This is starting to remind me of the OT scripture account of the Tower of Babel....which just did not work out to well for those attempting to usurp the sovereignty of the Almighty. Things could get more hairy, sooner than later if this stuff keeps up.
