Empathy influences connection and compassion in the most beautiful and genuine ways.
Human Bonding
The Science of Affectional Ties
Edited by Cindy Hazan and Mary I. Campa
…”Human Bonding: The Science of Affectional Ties" (Guilford Press) provides a scientific roadmap to love, relationships and what makes them strong – from our first attachments in infancy through old age.
“It is amply documented that people with close social ties are happier, healthier and even live longer than those without such ties; indeed, our very survival as a species depends on the formation and maintenance of strong social bonds,” said Cindy Hazan, co-editor of the book, associate professor of human development in the College of Human Ecology and a founder in the field of relationship science.
“A central aim of this book is to provide an integrative, science-based overview of human bonding across the lifespan,” she said…

The one single missing element among the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy that tells the whole story about the truth of the science on the sexual orientation of homosexuality that homosexuality is as normal as heterosexuality is - empathy. It is collectively their inability, to connect to other people, even to connect among themselves that has been observed and documented for more than the past 30 years. They are unable to see and feel the world through the experience of another person. Due to the extreme homogeneity of this population: e.g. all celibate, male, RC ordained clerics, chosen for their rigidity to doctrine to hold top authority positions in the Church (having little to absolutely no judicial oversight) the absence of empathy (demonstrated by their inability of connect to anyone or to form lifelong meaningful and fulfilling relationships) coupled with their fierce and relentless obsessive antigay crusade, for the past 30 years - they validate the truth of the science on homosexuality. They validate the truth by their sustaining lifelong harmful effects caused by the parental force suppression of their gay sexual orientation during early childhood years growing up gay. All children are harmed by the violence directed towards gay people in a given social environment, such as witnessing gay people being tossed off rooftops ten stories high to their death. However, it is only the gay child, who is most likely to become obsessively antigay violent in the child's adult years. Why?
This absence of empathy has become so entrenched over the past several decades in the organizational culture of the curia and hierarchy that it has become a most deadly form of groupthink. Its absence is never questioned - worst it is not even noticed among themselves that empathy is missing. It generates and permits violence in the world far more destructive than what was caused by Hitler and the Nazi regime. It is the most insidious form of structural violence. It is the completely accepted breach of the dialogue between the science and religion on the sexual orientation of homosexuality that Pope Benedict XVI has warned us would only come at “an enormous price to human development…”
Close-mindedness
The absence of empathy is one of the most striking contrast between Pope Francis and the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy. Even, presently, this contrast of the absence of empathy is clearly evident by Cardinal Muller, Cardinal Burke and a band of some 62 others people are obsessed about Pope Francis spreading heresy over his 2016 document, Amoris Laetitia wanting to debate this document that makes no doctrinal changes, only clearly highlights what has been the Church practice in the past. They have absolutely no substantiated reasoning for demanding a debate, but what is even more shocking they are oblivious to the life and death suffering of the migrants and refugees, not to mention the nuclear antics of Trump with North Korea bringing us to the brink of nuclear war. Pope Francis has been working night and day to negotiate world peace and the protection for the poor, including making great efforts to reverse the effects of climate change.
Pope appeals for end to conflicts, climate change in fight against hunger, migration
16/10/2017
(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis on Monday appealed to the international community not only to guarantee enough production and fair distribution of food for all but also to ensure the right of every human being to feed himself according to his needs without being forced to leave his home and loved ones.
He made the call at the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in Rome, where he marked World Food Day, which this year has as its theme, “Change the future of migration. Invest in Food Security and rural development.”
Conflicts and climate-change
Addressing the UN’s specialized agency that leads the international community’s fight against hunger and malnutrition in the world, the Pope urged governments to work together to end the conflicts and climate-change related disasters that force people to leave their homes in search of their daily bread. Citing the 2016 Paris climate accord in which governments committed themselves to combatting global warming, the Pope who spoke in Spanish, regretted that “unfortunately some are distancing themselves from it.”
He noted that negligence and greed over the world's limited resources are harming the planet and its most vulnerable people, forcing many to abandon their homes in search of work and food. He called for a change in lifestyle and the use of resources, adding it cannot be left for others to do…

Pope Francis: War and climate change cause hunger; stop treating it as an incurable illness
October 16, 2017
“It’s clear that wars and climate change cause hunger; let us stop presenting it as an incurable illness,” Pope Francis said in a powerful keynote address at the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization on Oct.16. He called on governments worldwide to take collaborative action to overcome the three interconnected plagues of conflict, climate change and hunger.
“In this situation, we can and we must change direction,” the pope said. “What is at stake is the credibility of the whole international system.” His audience included government ministers from the Group of Seven countries: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States, as well as the ambassadors of F.A.O. member states and the organization’s top officials.
Francis spelled out several concrete steps that need to be taken by governments and the international community at a moment in which hunger is on the rise for the first time in decades, with 815 million people suffering from chronic undernourishment and millions of migrants worldwide, as the F.A.O.’s director general, José Graziano da Silva, told the pope in his welcome address.
“The relation between hunger and migrations can only be faced if we go to the roots of the problem,” Pope Francis said, speaking in Spanish. He noted that studies conducted by the United Nations and civil society groups concur that to effectively address the problems of hunger and migration “two main obstacles have to be overcome: conflicts and climate change.”
He said international law has the means “for preventing and rapidly resolving” conflict and avoiding “famine and destruction of the social fabric.” What is needed is “goodwill and dialogue to stop the conflicts and a total commitment in favor of a gradual and systematic disarming [of the combatants], as envisaged by the Charter of the United Nations, as well as remedying the terrible plague of the arms trade.”…

Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath Day
One Sabbath day Jesus was walking with his disciples
through the grainfields. The disciples began to
break off some heads of grain.
The Pharisees said to Jesus, “Look! It is against the Law
to do this on the Sabbath day. Why are your disciples doing it?”
He answered, “Haven’t you ever read about what David did?
He and his men were hungry. They needed food. It was
when Abiathar was high priest. David entered the
house of God and ate the holy bread. Only
priests were allowed to eat it.
David also gave some to his men.”
Then Jesus said to them,
“The Sabbath day was made for man.
Man was not made for the Sabbath day.
Mark 2:23-27
Muller and Burke like the screaming antigay hysterics protesting Fr. James Martin speaking at the CUA - going public has only proved to be more embarrassing for them, because next to Pope Francis's efforts to save the world - it exposes the emptiness of their complaints. It then begs the question why they are not totally involved in helping Pope Francis.
Their inability to connect to anyone - is evident by: (1) their infamous internal conflicts, as noted in the Vatileaks 2012, and in Pope Francis's Christmas address to the curia, December 22, 2014, "the Pope listed 15 spiritual “ailments” encountered in the Curia, and urged the bureaucratic leadership to renew its effort to heal itself as Christmas approaches" (2) their closeted gay sexual acting out escapades, (a) with anonymous sex partners and (b) the need to be intoxicated before having sex and (3) the times that they do come together - it is over being quite angry about something like Amoris Laetitia, or Fr. James Martin speaking at the CUA. They self-fuel their own anger by exaggerating situations out context and overlooking pertinent pieces of information to increase the height of their anger and to sustained it. They do not want anyone to calm their anger or to provide the missing pieces of rationale that would dissipate their anger. Their hatred is an addiction - a hate addiction - that like drug addictions - intense anger anesthetizes the brain - numbing out all unpleasant emotions. As stated in Part 3 - “The way you make love is the way you do everything in life.” Whether their intercourse with people is verbal or physical - they are as disconnected from people as they are to their co-workers in the curia- as noted by their never ending internal conflicts (Vatileaks 2012), described as “cold-blooded killers” (Pope Francis, December 22, 2014). Among them and their vocal supporters e.g. their screaming antigay hysterics, and those accusing Pope Francis of heresy - there is no sign of anything that remotely resembles empathy. Why?
Pope Francis's actions not heretical, just human
September 26, 2017
(CNN)Is Catholicism about faith and compassion, or rigid doctrine and exclusion? According to a group of conservative Catholics who just accused Pope Francis of spreading heresy, it's the latter.
Sixty-two (somewhat marginal) Catholic scholars and clergy have signed a letter that disputes Francis' signaling of his willingness to allow divorced and remarried people to receive communion. This, they say, is immoral and heretical, a sign of Francis "misleading the flock." Far better, in this retrograde reading of doctrine, to ostracize and shame the remarried as "adulterers" and the divorced as sinful failures.
Really?
I've seen how this "old way" played out in my own family, and it puts Pope Francis' more reform-minded church in useful perspective. My grandparents were devout Catholics, married young, and had five children; my grandfather also beat my grandmother. She eventually left -- a painful and terrifying decision for a woman with only a high school degree in 1950s America. She supported the five kids by working multiple low-wage jobs at once. He did his damnedest to skirt financial responsibility, and she struggled her entire life…

Empathy is the fierce driving force behind Pope Francis inclusive nature of bringing everyone into the Church with particular attention paid to the poor, those who are suffering the most in the world and have been forgotten. Principally, Pope Francis is able to connect, be as one with another human being. He is able to experience the diversity of people’s happiness and their pain. This is the meaning of empathy. Pope Francis, instantly connected with the world after he was elected, when it was found out through the news media reporters about the past several decades of his un-quivering care for the poor. It was his actual walking through the slums of Buenos Aires, Argentina, the face-to-face - one-on-one conversations he had with the people living there that astonished people all over the world - leaving them speechless. They were further astonished by the fact that he used public transportation shunning the use of a limousine, lived in a two room apartment, cooked his own meals, even paid his own hotel bill and chose not to live in the papal Apostolic Palace, but to remain in Casa Santa Marta - the Vatican guest house. At the age of 76 years old, a person either did or did not do these things and the public knew it, Pope Francis was authentic, the real McCoy. He was beloved before he ever spoke a public word. Why?
Pope Francis shunned official papal apartments to live 'normal life’
29 May 2013
He has told a friend that he likes being in daily contact with ordinary people, does not want to be isolated and enjoys sitting down to meals with visiting clergy.
The Pope, 76, who on first seeing the papal apartments reportedly exclaimed "But there is room here for 300 people!”…
The Pope broke with Vatican tradition when he decided…not to live in the apostolic apartments.
Instead he opted to remain in the Casa Santa Marta, a Vatican residence which accommodates visiting clergy and lay people, where he had stayed with his fellow cardinals during the conclave…

Pope Francis’s respect and kindness towards gay people has been most extraordinary, especially at the horrific time of the Orlando gay shootings, June 2016. However, his constant public concern for migrants and refugees, the people in most need of our care and support, has been as redeeming as it has been renewing to the whole Church. Pope Francis refers to himself as a sinner, literally a sinner. His focus is entirely, to the best of his ability, on Christ and what Christ asks us all to do for others, most especially for the least of among us. We know from organizational psychology that the loyalty and morale of a company’s employees, which includes productivity - is largely depended on how well the company treats their employees, especially those at the lowest levels. This is true even though as researchers have found that - it may seem on the surface - as if no one in the company cares what happens to these employees. However, researchers have found - that below the surface - all eyes in the company are attune to how they are treated. It is a forecast on how well all the company’s employees will be treated.
Proof That Positive Work Cultures Are More Productive
Harvard Business Review - December 1, 2015
Creating a positive and healthy culture for your team rests on a few major principles…
…2. Show empathy. As a boss, you have a huge impact on how your employees feel. A telling brain-imaging study found that, when employees recalled a boss that had been unkind or un-empathic, they showed increased activation in areas of the brain associated with avoidance and negative emotion while the opposite was true when they recalled an empathic boss. Moreover, Jane Dutton and her colleagues in the CompassionLab at the University of Michigan suggest that leaders who demonstrate compassion toward employees foster individual and collective resilience in challenging times.
3. Go out of your way to help. Ever had a manager or mentor who took a lot of trouble to help you when he or she did not have to? Chances are you have remained loyal to that person to this day. Jonathan Haidt at New York University’s Stern School of Business shows in his research that when leaders are not just fair but self-sacrificing, their employees are actually moved and inspired to become more loyal and committed themselves. As a consequence, they are more likely to go out of their way to be helpful and friendly to other employees, thus creating a self-reinforcing cycle. Daan Van Knippenberg of Rotterdam School of Management shows that employees of self-sacrificing leaders are more cooperative because they trust their leaders more. They are also more productive and see their leaders as more effective and charismatic…
In sum, a positive workplace is more successful over time because it increases positive emotions and well-being. This, in turn, improves people’s relationships with each other and amplifies their abilities and their creativity. It buffers against negative experiences such as stress, thus improving employees’ ability to bounce back from challenges and difficulties while bolstering their health. And, it attracts employees, making them more loyal to the leader and to the organization as well as bringing out their best strengths. When organizations develop positive, virtuous cultures they achieve significantly higher levels of organizational effectiveness — including financial performance, customer satisfaction, productivity, and employee engagement.

The second, most striking contrast between Pope Francis and the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy is that Pope Francis does not share in the least their fierce antigay obsessive crusade for the past 30 years. They have ruthlessly silenced and removed anyone - who openly discusses the emerging science on the sexual orientation on homosexuality that established in 1957, 60 years ago that homosexuals who are open and accepting about their gay sexual orientation are found to be as normal as heterosexuals.
Science on Sexual Orientation of Homosexuality

Provocative Images
Illustration & Recording Reactions
Since the arrival of Pope Francis on the scene, he has been a vivid contrast to the standard and dominant antigay organizational culture that has engulfed the Vatican by the curia and hierarchy for the past several decades. This clerical antigay culture is deeply entrenched, it has been fostered and maintained by the “cardinals in the Roman Curia, the Vatican's administrative and judicial apparatus” who “wield power with absolutely no checks…” This obsessive antigay culture of the Roman Curia is embedded in and supported by societal antigay prejudices, both have absolutely no knowledge of the science on the sexual orientation of homosexuality. Together, they not only contribute to the pervasive harm to children in the digital world, but they are far more destructive to the lives of children.
Pope: protecting children in the digital world top priority
06/10/2017
(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis received the participants in the first-ever World Congress on Child Dignity in the Digital World on Friday. The Centre for Child Protection at the Pontifical Gregorian University hosted the four-day event, which brought experts in child care, internet security, law enforcement, education, and a host of other fields together to share experiences and best practices, with a view to addressing the problem of the effective protection of the dignity of minors in the digital world…
We are aware how the ignorance societal antigay prejudices had been easily exploited by Hitler that allowed him to become dictator and how the same ushered in and maintain the growth of globalization. The harm to children in the digital world is a form of direct violence, however, the pervasive ignorance of the science on homosexuality of the curia and hierarchy that fuels the same in societal antigay prejudices is a form of structural violence.
…Structural violence, however, is almost always invisible, embedded in ubiquitous social structures, normalized by stable institutions and regular experience. Structural violence occurs whenever people are disadvantaged by political, legal, economic, or cultural traditions. Because they are longstanding, structural inequities usually seem ordinary—the way things are and always have been. But structural violence produces suffering and death as often as direct violence does, though the damage is slower, more subtle, more common, and more difficult to repair…

Truly, truly, I say to you,
unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies,
it remains alone; but if it dies,
it bears much fruit.
He who loves his life loses it, and
he who hates his life in this world will keep it to life eternal.
If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and
where I am, there My servant will be also;
if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.
John 12: 23-26
Our diligent research and study to find truth and therefore love - begins with Dr. Evelyn Hooker’s empirical science on homosexuality in the USA, 1957 - at the completion of her most notable and ground breaking research proving that homosexuality is not a mental illness titled:
"The Adjustment of the Male Overt Homosexual"
in which she administered several psychological tests to groups of self-identified male homosexuals and heterosexuals and asked experts to identify the homosexuals and rate their mental health. The experiment, which other researchers subsequently repeated, argues that homosexuality is not a mental disorder, as there was no detectable difference between homosexual and heterosexual men in terms of mental adjustment…

Being Gay Is Just as Healthy as Being Straight
Evelyn Hooker's pioneering research debunked the popular myth that homosexuals are inherently less mentally healthy than heterosexuals, leading to significant changes in how psychology views and treats people who are gay...
Hooker's work was the first to empirically test the assumption that gay men were mentally unhealthy and maladjusted. The fact that no differences were found between gay and straight participants sparked more research in this area and began to dismantle the myth that homosexual men and women are inherently unhealthy.
In conjunction with other empirical results, this work led the American Psychiatric Association to remove homosexuality from the DSM in 1973 (it had been listed as a sociopathic personality disorder). In 1975, the American Psychological Association publicly supported this move, stating that "homosexuality per se implies no impairment in judgment, reliability or general social and vocational capabilities…(and mental health professionals should) take the lead in removing the stigma of mental illness long associated with homosexual orientation." Although prejudice and stigma still exist in society, this research has helped millions of gay men and women gain acceptance in the mental health community.

From the subsequent empirical research that followed in the wake of her discovery we will learn the reality about sexual orientation whether it is gay, straight or bisexual - it cannot be permanently suppressed or changed. We will learn that the central purpose of our sexual orientation is about the basic human need for human attachment, which is love. This is an emotional need for the attachment of human interaction (Rene Spitz) that has been observed begins at the moment of birth - wanting to be loved, wanting to love and wanting to feel as one with another. Through the research of Rene Spitz, it was found that even though an infant’s physical needs are adequately being met, the absence of meeting the infant’s psychological emotional need for human attachment supplied through an empathic caring parent, immediately significantly threatens both the physical and mental health of the infant, even the life of the infant.
Through Rene Spitz’s research - we can begin to understand, the kind of devastating trauma and harm that comes to child, when a child perceives even the slightest signs of parental abandonment. The child perceives the world through the limited view of a child’s mind that is still in the process of developing all the mental components that lead to the cognitive capabilities of an adult. A child who is being force to suppress any outward sign of a gay sexual orientation, regardless how mildly or implicitly it is convey to the child - will tend to be traumatized by the parental demands that the child does not have the capability to understand. This likely leaves the child in a state of being overwhelmed by the perceived abandonment of his parents. In addition, the child not having the mental capability to understand the adult’s twisted concept of what gay means (the absence science on homosexuality, etc.) is disorienting for the child on at least three crucial counts: (1) no understanding of the meaning of gay, (2) it is an irrational demand based on the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices and (3) in ways severing in varying degrees the child’s trust need for human attachment essential for the development of empathy and in forming of future relationships.

From Rene Spitz we learn how crucial for life the need for human attachment that begins at birth is and remains constant throughout life. We learned that the absence of human attachment severely impacts the infant’s ability to thrive causing many mental disorders and physical disabilities that has been lethal for others. Dr. Spitz sums it up in clear terms that it is the lack of love that is hurting the infants and even killing them, because they are missing the all importance of loving parental relationships (http://phenomena.nationalgeographic.com/2013/07/31/the-orphanage-problem/).
Attachment is a deep and enduring emotional bond that connects one person to another across time and space (Ainsworth, 1973; Bowlby, 1969)…
Attachment behavior in adults towards the child includes responding sensitively and appropriately to the child’s needs. Such behavior appears universal across cultures. Attachment theory explains how the parent-child relationship emerges and influences subsequent development…
In the 1930’s John Bowlby worked as a psychiatrist in a Child Guidance Clinic in London, where he treated many emotionally disturbed children.
This experience led Bowlby to consider the importance of the child’s relationship with their mother in terms of their social, emotional and cognitive development…

The need for human attachment is essential for human survival remaining constant throughout life is a gradual developing architecture of human attachment (incremental) that is interconnected with the development of sexual orientation and empathy (Infant attachment to Adult attachment Bowlby, Ainsworth, Hazan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attachment_and_Health#Infant_attachment and -https://www.guilford.com/books/Human-Bonding/Hazan-Campa/9781462510672/editors). The relationship attachments that are constructed in early childhood - is the blueprint for all future relationships that includes other aspects of life i.e. professions, careers, arts, music, sports activities, organizations, hobbies, etc.
November 17, 2011
Humans are social beings and need to be with others and form relationships but our relationship behaviors do not "come naturally" and they need to be learned similar to other social skills (Schneider, Gruman & Coutts, 2005, p.77). Many psychologists argue that the kind of relationships infants have with their primary caregivers is the blueprint for the later life relationships (Schneider, Gruman & Coutts, 2005). Behaviors in adult relationships' are influenced by the kinds of relationships and attachments they have experienced in their early years with their primary caregivers. This is the basic perspective of the theory of attachment styles that claims that the kind of bonds we form early in life influence the kinds of relationships we form as adults (Aronson, Wilson, & Akert, 2011)…

Adult Romantic Partners
A Brief Overview of Adult Attachment Theory and Research
Summary
Research on adult attachment is guided by the assumption that the same motivational system that gives rise to the close emotional bond between parents and their children is responsible for the bond that develops between adults in emotionally intimate relationships…
Bowlby's Theory of Attachment
The theory of attachment was originally developed by John Bowlby (1907 - 1990), a British psychoanalyst who was attempting to understand the intense distress experienced by infants who had been separated from their parents. Bowlby observed that separated infants would go to extraordinary lengths (e.g., crying, clinging, frantically searching) to prevent separation from their parents or to reestablish proximity to a missing parent…
The attachment behavior system is an important concept in attachment theory because it provides the conceptual linkage between ethological models of human development and modern theories on emotion regulation and personality. According to Bowlby, the attachment system essentially "asks" the following fundamental question: Is the attachment figure nearby, accessible, and attentive? If the child perceives the answer to this question to be "yes," he or she feels loved, secure, and confident, and, behaviorally, is likely to explore his or her environment, play with others, and be sociable. If, however, the child perceives the answer to this question to be "no," the child experiences anxiety and, behaviorally, is likely to exhibit attachment behaviors ranging from simple visual searching on the low extreme to active following and vocal signaling on the other (see Figure 1). These behaviors continue until either the child is able to reestablish a desirable level of physical or psychological proximity to the attachment figure, or until the child "wears down," as may happen in the context of a prolonged separation or loss. In such cases, Bowlby believed that young children experienced profound despair and depression…
…Mary Ainsworth (1913 - 1999), began to systematically study infant-parent separations that a formal understanding of these individual differences was articulated. Ainsworth and her students developed a technique called the strange situation--a laboratory paradigm for studying infant-parent attachment…
…Ainsworth's work was important for at least three reasons. First, she provided one of the first empirical demonstrations of how attachment behavior is patterned in both safe and frightening contexts. Second, she provided the first empirical taxonomy of individual differences in infant attachment patterns. According to her research, at least three types of children exist: those who are secure in their relationship with their parents, those who are anxious-resistant, and those who are anxious-avoidant. Finally, she demonstrated that these individual differences were correlated with infant-parent interactions in the home during the first year of life. Children who appear secure in the strange situation, for example, tend to have parents who are responsive to their needs. Children who appear insecure in the strange situation (i.e., anxious-resistant or avoidant) often have parents who are insensitive to their needs, or inconsistent or rejecting in the care they provide. In the years that have followed, a number of researchers have demonstrated links between early parental sensitivity and responsiveness and attachment security.
Adult Romantic Relationships
Although Bowlby was primarily focused on understanding the nature of the infant-caregiver relationship, he believed that attachment characterized human experience from "the cradle to the grave.”… Hazan and Shaver (1987) were two of the first researchers to explore Bowlby's ideas in the context of romantic relationships. According to Hazan and Shaver, the emotional bond that develops between adult romantic partners is partly a function of the same motivational system--the attachment behavioral system--that gives rise to the emotional bond between infants and their caregivers…

Composed of Interrelated
Biological (Physical) and Psychological (Emotional) Processes
Not Under Our Conscious Control
Under Control
Autonomic Nervous System
Hearts beating and Breathing
We will learn from studying the - science on sexual orientation that it is composed of interrelated biological and psychological processes that are not able to be consciously controlled or suppressed. These interrelated processes function outside our conscious awareness - automatically and continuously throughout life as part of the autonomic nervous system - like the heart beating and breathing. The continuous functioning of our sexual orientation - is essential in meeting our most basic human need for love, attachment, intimacy, through which empathy is developed. The continuous functioning of our sexual orientation is as vital to human survival from the beginning of life to the end - as the heart beating and breathing. Any attempt to force the suppression of a child’s gay sexual orientation is the same as suppressing the heart and breathing rate which can cause a number of lifelong adverse effects (i.e. persistent form of depression (dysthymia), suicidal ideation, and obsessive dislike for gay people that is implicit, to explicit verbal expressions of hate, to lethal forms of violence, and torture).

Heart & Breathing Rates function
The importance of this following statement bears repeating ad nauseam, because it helps to explain, in scientific terms the reason behind the obsessive antigay behavior demonstrated so vividly among the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy, and why their obsessive antigay behavior identifies is repressed dissociated homosexuals. The functioning of our individual sexual orientation is under the control of the autonomic nervous system, it is not under our conscious control. As the research will confirm that we not only do not consciously chose - the gender of the person we are attracted to nor the time of day or night or how often - when we are sexually aroused. The autonomic nervous system automatically and continuously regulates our bodily functions that are essential to sustaining our lives, such as our hearts beating or our breathing, and this includes our sexual orientation. What this means is that we do not have to consciously remember that we need to take a breath. Therefore, our sexual orientation is continuously and automatically functioning. It operates as a survival mechanism, like our hearts and our breathing. We cannot live without oxygen nor can we live without love. When we are deprived of either oxygen or love our bodies suffer the harmful effects that can be life threatening.
And the constant and continuous functioning of our sexual orientation - like the heart and breathing, is vital for sustaining not only our individual lives, but also simultaneously the lives of each other. It is responsible for supplying the necessary memories of the learned developmental skills of love and empathy of human interaction - needed for fostering and maintaining lifelong meaningful and life-giving relationships - essential for sustaining our interconnectedness with each other - collectively meeting our most basic human need that we cannot live without, which is love.
Sexual orientation refers to an enduring pattern of emotional, romantic and/or sexual attractions to men, women or both sexes... http://www.apa.org/topics/lgbt/orientation.aspx
Autonomic nervous system
The autonomic nervous system is a control system that acts largely unconsciously and regulates bodily functions such as the heart rate, digestion, respiratory rate, pupillary response, urination, and sexual arousal… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomic_nervous_system
A research study 2012, at Cornell University found that measurements of pupil dilation taken while study participants viewed erotic videos of people they found attractive - was a robust indicator of - a person’s sexual orientation and of the activation of the autonomic nervous system. The results of bisexual men was of significant importance in this new study that revealed they had substantial pupil dilations to sexual videos of both men and women.
The Eyes Have It: Sex and Sexual Orientation Differences in Pupil Dilation Patterns
August 3. 2012
…pupil dilation to stimuli indicates activation of the autonomic nervous system. This system is associated with many automatic processes such as perspiration, digestion, blood pressure, and heart rate. For this reason, pupil dilation has been used as indicator of automatic response, for example, in studies of implicit reaction and cognitive load. Other research suggests that pupil dilation can reflect automatic attention, or attention that is likely not in the conscious control of participants. It is therefore unlikely that participants suppress pupil dilation to stimuli they are sexually attracted to. Pupil dilation patterns could therefore reflect, with high sensitivity, automatic attention related to sexual attraction and sexual orientation…
Sexual Orientation - Interrelated
Biological (Physical) and Psychological (Emotional)
Developmental Processes
What this means:
What this means is that child who is gay cannot change his sexual orientation to be straight or heterosexual. Furthermore: a child at the early childhood ages of 4 and 5 years of age his no concept of what an adult’s perception or understanding of what “gay” means. The child has no concept of human sexuality. A child who is gay will remain gay for the rest of his life. The gay child will be sexually aroused when he begins to reach the age of puberty by members of the same-sex in a romantic way, in the same way that a heterosexual child becomes sexually aroused by members of the opposite sex. A child’s sexual orientation is an interrelated biological and psychological developmental process. Forcing a gay child to be heterosexual - is a life threatening act of violence to the child. The lifelong harmful effects that this violent form of child abuse will cause for the child are severe disruptions in his ability to form lifelong meaningful relationships, because the crucial empathic bonding between the child and parents that began at birth has been significantly severed.
This bond that helps the child in his developmental process of learning how to identify and to regulate his emotions, through which the child develops the ability to empathize with another human being has ended. Because the fundamental core foundation of this child/parent bonding was built on trust of an empathic caring parent, who is able to tune into the child’s needs and respond to them by meeting the child’s needs. A parent who is not able to tune into the central core being of a gay child’s perception of love and way of loving - is a traumatic disconnect for the child from the parent. This empathic break in the child/parent bond stalls a child’s completion of his emotional maturation and learning affect tolerance - a crucial developmental stage needed to make it possible for the child to be able to master the developmental maturation process of adolescence.
Affect regulation and defenses against affects
The failure to recognize one’s affects as part of one’s own information processing apparatus, tends to cause an individual to feel ruled by those emotions. Such people tend to build up their emotions to a very high intensity based on early experiences of using them to control the parental objects. Retaining such strategies in adult life may lead to a person behaving in an “out of control” fashion. Affect maturation and the development of affect tolerance during the latency period represents the most important single factor towards making possible the maturational developments in adolescence. Such achievements require the capacity to grieve effectively, making possible the renunciation of the infantile experience of the parents, and of oneself. A parallel process is the integration of the various self- representations derived from the several psychosexual developmental stages –which takes place in adolescence potentially achieving a consciously recognized wholeness of the self…

Sexual Orientation - Not Chosen
Cannot be Changed
Cannot be Permanently Suppressed
Mentally Dissociation = Dangerous & Violent
Acting Out Behaviors
No one chooses their sexual orientation and the gender that a person fines attractive remains stable throughout that person’s life, it identifies and confirms a person’s sexual orientation. A person’s sexual orientation functions automatically and continuously 24/7 outside a person’s conscious awareness. What this means is that a person will experience being emotionally and physically sexually aroused whenever he comes in contact with an attractive person of gender that corresponds to his sexual orientation. If the male person is gay - then whenever he sees or views images of or has thoughts of an attractive male person - he will automatically feel emotionally and physically sexually aroused. This sexual arousal happens outside the person’s conscious control. This has been demonstrated in the above research study of 2012, at Cornell University, “The Eyes Have It: Sex and Sexual Orientation Differences in Pupil Dilation Patterns.”

Ignorance and Fear of Societal Antigay Prejudices
I N N A T E
Not only is a gay child, at 4 and 5 years of age (1) traumatized by his parents disproval of his expression of love, (2) he is forced to suppress something that has no adult conceptual understanding of what it is (his gay sexual orientation) and in addition, (3) he is being forced to suppress something (his gay sexual orientation) that he has no control over to suppress. Because these inhuman expectations that are placed onto the gay child happens early in life, are overwhelming to the child - (4) the child is likely not going to remember the exact situations when they started. The built in safety mechanism of early childhood protects the child from overwhelming events by relegating the memories of such events to the unconscious. The song from the American children's novel the “Wizard of Oz” “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” seems to directly identify this built-in early childhood safety mechanism when to a child “all the world is a hopeless jumble” and it is sung that then “Heaven opens a magic lane.”
When all the world is a hopeless jumble
And the raindrops tumble all around
Heaven opens a magic lane
When all the clouds darken up the skyway
There's a rainbow highway to be found,
Leading from your window pane
To a place behind the sun, just a step beyond the rain
Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true
Someday, I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why, can't I?
However, because of the (a) enduring parental expectations that the gay child suppress any expression of his gay sexual orientation that is supported by (b) the pervasive ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices of the social environment that the gay child is raised in - this child as an adult - will (c) erroneously and firmly believe that these societal antigay prejudices to be “innate” that they are “inborn” “natural” created by God. They are not “innate.”
Although, it is as if heaven opens a magic lane to protect the child at that young age to survive the emotional traumatic events, - by relegating those memories to the unconscious where they are forgotten. Forgotten, yes, but in no way are they eradicated - destroyed completely forever. These extremely unpleasant feelings from early childhood will remain active causing continuous disruption throughout the person’s life. The destructive power of these feelings is only deactivated, when they are consciously remembered, identified, differentiated and put into words (Henry Krystal MD).
Love is the key to all life - it is the crucial factor to survival - not only our personal lives, but for everyone. It is the lack to love that causes problems. Much of the time spent in psychotherapy is searching and repairing times in our lives, when we experienced the painful emotions that stem from love being hindered, rejected, or denied, this is especially true during early childhood years. Such feelings experienced by a child are far more powerfully overwhelming for a child than for an adult, because an adult knows that the feelings do not last forever. However, to a child these feelings of the absence of love are amplified several times greater - they seem as if they will never, never, never end - they will go on, and on and on - forever and ever. This is traumatizing for a child, unless an empathic parent or adult caregiver is able to attune to the child’s emotional state and begins to explain the fact that feelings do not last forever and reassures the child that everything will be alright. In this one intervention, the child’s feelings are recognized and validated, as well as, being regulated and equally important the child is experiencing the meaning of empathy that helps the child to develop the ability to have empathy for others. However, when it is the parent or adult caregiver that caused the traumatizing situation, as it is when a gay child is being forced to suppress his sexual orientation - the child is likely to suffer the full effects of being traumatized and severely thwarting the child’s development of empathy, in fact, it is teaching the child through experience the opposite - to be unconcerned about what happens to other people.
Dr. Henry Krystal, is an internationally renowned psychiatrist - noted for his extensive work with Holocaust survivors and traumatized people. Dr. Krystal describes - when such overwhelming emotions are separated from the situations that caused them and then are buried (for a child this automatically happens i.e. “Heaven opens a magic lane”) - though they are forgotten - they still remain active in our unconscious. They are not only active, but they continue to be destructive to our lives, in ways that we are unaware is happening. It is only through the process of remembering and reconnecting these painful and overwhelming emotions to the situations the caused them that we deactivate their destructive force in our lives. Dr. Henry Krystal:
...Love is the representation of our life powers. The painful emotions can be understood as love hindered, rejected, denied. Emotions recognized, received, and acknowledged, produce the experience of wholeness and competence. What we cannot accept lovingly and peaceably we must try to reject and alienate and we must denote it as ‘nonself.’” (1971a: p. xvii) Our memories, wishes, representations of ourselves and of our objects must be consciously accepted, tolerated, accommodated to, and, hopefully, utilized to one’s advantage. Otherwise they must be handled by repression, isolation, projection, and other (fantasy) defenses, which are experienced as externally, imposed “symptoms.” Contrary to subjective experiences of affect that seem to be explainable by the residues of the antiquated psychoanalytic theories, we cannot “express” them in the sense of ridding ourselves of our affect -- emotional self continence is a self evident truth. However, only consciously acknowledged, and experienced self continence results in a feeling of well being. Illusionally estranged mental elements seem to continue to radiate the painful affects...

However, this erroneous belief that these societal antigay prejudices to be “innate” that they are “inborn” “natural” created by God - does not bear good fruit, instead it bears bad fruit. It is the destruction of the child's well-being and to all of society, as well, because it is the death of the development of human empathy. It significantly disrupts - the essential life-sustaining need of human bonding - to feel one with another that begins at birth that nurtures the full development of a human being for life. It is the abuse of the meaning of the word love twisted around to mean the opposite, which is hate though disguised as love that the child will internalized that will become a perpetuating feeling of self-hate every time the child fails to suppress the 24/7 automatic and continuous functioning of his gay sexual orientation, which was never under his conscious control, like the heart beating and breathing. Please, tell me how a child of 4 and 5 years of age will be able to identify a "false prophet...in sheep's clothing" ?!? In a honest and educated attempt to answer this question - one might begin understanding the immediacy for my "coming out" 20 years ago March 1997 - for the protection of children and why I continue to advocate for their protection.
A Tree and Its Fruit
Beware of false prophets,
who come to you in sheep’s clothing but
inwardly are ravenous wolves.
You will know them by their fruits.
Are grapes gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles?
In the same way, every good tree bears good fruit, but
the bad tree bears bad fruit.
A good tree cannot bear bad fruit,
nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.
Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and
thrown into the fire.
Thus you will know them by their fruits.
Matthew 7:15-20
The ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices are not “innate” they do not come from God. Societal antigay prejudices are not based on the science of sexual orientation and subsequently there has been no ongoing dialogue between science and religion on this subject. Therefore, societal antigay prejudices are not based in truth and without truth there is no love (Caritas in veritate, Pope Benedict XVI 2009). Societal antigay prejudices represent the breach in the dialogue between science and religion on the sexual orientation of homosexuality that “comes only at an enormous price to human development.” However, this gay dissociation that began in early childhood from consciously acknowledging anything that is remotely gay will become more severe and consuming at a tremendous amount of the gay teenagers time and energy. The gay child from early childhood has been forced to control, out of the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices, something that no one has any power to control. This is not love. This is not the parental empathic caring for the child, which requires tuning into the child’s individual needs and wants. This is a severely violent form of child abuse that is invisible and that has continually been normalized by the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices that is promoted and sanctioned the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy, except for Pope Francis. And once again, see a rise in the curia and hierarchy ruthless obsessive antigay crusade, beginning in our New Your City, with I am sorry to say the last minute notice been given by Cardinal Dolan to stop the "International Human Rights Art Festival.” This is not an act of love - this is the blatant Roman Catholic hierarchical meanness, BDSM behavior and the endorsement of the hysteria of the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices, the kind that were exploited by the Nazi that gave Hitler the dictatorship of Nazi Germany that led to the deaths of 70 million people by the end of WWII.
Truly, truly, I say to you,
unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies,
it remains alone; but if it dies,
it bears much fruit.
He who loves his life loses it, and
he who hates his life in this world will keep it to life eternal.
If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and
where I am, there My servant will be also;
if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.

Festival Moves Event After Church Objects to Gay-Themed Content
OCT. 13, 2017
A human rights arts festival scheduled to take place on Sunday in a Lower East Side church hall was scrambling for a new venue after top officials of the New York Archdiocese expressed last-minute concerns that performances dealing with gay and transgender issues were not in line with church teaching.
Organizers of the International Human Rights Art Festival put out a news release about the event at St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Church on Grand Street about a month ago. The festival included a comedy improvisation, “Thank You for Coming Out,” about revealing gay identity, and a series of original cabaret songs by Maybe Burke, a transgender artist and activist.
The actress Kathleen Turner was scheduled to headline the event. Then, on Thursday, the pastor of St. Mary’s contacted the festival’s organizers to say that church officials, including Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan, the archbishop of New York, had expressed concern about the gay and transgender content of the show. Rather than remove the two pieces, the event’s producer, Tom Block, decided to pull the entire event from the church.
“We are a human rights arts festival,” Mr. Block said. “We are not going to abandon people.”
The dispute comes at a time when the Roman Catholic Church as a whole is attempting to be more welcoming to the gay and transgender community, following the lead of Pope Francis. But there is a lingering tension in the church that extending a hand of welcome might come across as an endorsement of homosexuality, against church teaching…

There is another possibility, in addition to the above, that is also valid, blackmail, which the Nazis used against people to force their obedience. The blackmail that the Nazis used was also the exploitation of the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices, in their secret investigations into the lives of prominent people to accuse them of being homosexuals, or sexual affairs - as a means of control, banking on the public antigay hysteria against homosexuals to intimidate these leaders into submission.
‘Vatican Closeted Gay Prelates’
Being Blackmailed by Outsiders
Papal resignation linked to inquiry into 'Vatican gay officials', says paper
Friday 22 February 2013
A potentially explosive report has linked the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI to the discovery of a network of gay prelates in the Vatican, some of whom – the report said – were being blackmailed by outsiders…
The paper said the pope had taken the decision on 17 December that he was going to resign – the day he received a dossier compiled by three cardinals delegated to look into the so-called "Vatileaks" affair.
Last May Pope Benedict's butler, Paolo Gabriele, was arrested and charged with having stolen and leaked papal correspondence that depicted the Vatican as a seething hotbed of intrigue and infighting.
The newspaper said the cardinals described a number of factions, including one whose members were "united by sexual orientation".
In an apparent quotation from the report, La Repubblica said some Vatican officials had been subject to "external influence" from laymen with whom they had links of a "worldly nature". The paper said this was a clear reference to blackmail.
It quoted a source "very close to those who wrote [the cardinal's report]" as saying: "Everything revolves around the non-observance of the sixth and seventh commandments.”…
La Repubblica said the cardinals' report identified a series of meeting places in and around Rome. They included a villa outside the Italian capital, a sauna in a Rome suburb, a beauty parlour in the centre, and a former university residence that was in use by a provincial Italian archbishop…
Pope Benedict has said he will stand down at the end of this month;…Since announcing his departure he has twice apparently referred to machinations inside the Vatican, saying that divisions "mar the face of the church", and warned against "the temptations of power”.
La Repubblica's report was the latest in a string of claims that a gay network exists in the Vatican. In 2007 a senior official was suspended from the congregation, or department, for the priesthood, after he was filmed in a "sting" organised by an Italian television programme while apparently making sexual overtures to a younger man.
In 2010 a chorister was dismissed for allegedly procuring male prostitutes for a papal gentleman-in-waiting. A few months later a weekly news magazine used hidden cameras to record priests visiting gay clubs and bars and having sex…

Between World Wars, Gay Culture Flourished In Berlin
December 17, 2014
In Gay Berlin, Robert Beachy describes the rise of a gay subculture in the 1920s and '30s, how it contributed to our understanding of gay identity and how it was eradicated by the Nazis.
…GROSS: Something really unusual about how this law was enforced was that a department called the Department of Blackmail and Homosexuality was created to enforce the law. Where did the blackmail come into this department?
BEACHY: Yeah, that's such an odd formulation, and it seems incongruous, maybe. But, in fact, because of the character of the law, blackmail was one of the, you could say, side effects. It was something that made anybody who was suspected of breaking the law vulnerable to. So especially a male prostitute, or maybe a spurned lover, might then threaten to expose someone if not given a certain amount of money or maybe, you know, other kinds of gifts. And so blackmail became a huge problem.
And the same police commissioner and then his successors and really the entire police department, recognized that the bigger problem was not homosexual conduct, but the way in which the law itself actually allowed for the practice of blackmail. So this is really how the department, then, ended up being created with this strange name. And the two, then, were always closely linked.
GROSS: I think a lot of the people that the Department of Blackmail and Homosexuality went after were prostitutes because the department, though I interpreted, didn't really want to go after, like, the middle class. And the assumption, too, I think, was that prostitutes who make money in the sex trade were also willing to make money through blackmailing the people they were - who were paying them to have sex.
But that leads to, like, a whole other chapter in the story, which was that there was a lot of prostitution, male prostitutes, in gay Berlin at the time. So let's just address, first, how prostitutes were mostly the people who were prosecuted, if I understand correctly, in the blackmail part of the Department of Blackmail and Homosexuality?
BEACHY: Yeah, that's absolutely accurate. Especially by the beginning of the 20th century, there seemed to be something like a scourge of blackmail. It was almost like a plague, and there were so many cases that there was, really increasingly, a kind of a formal campaign against it. So when these cases would come to trial, the blackmailers, the male prostitutes, tended to receive much heavier sentences than their victims, even if their victims were also convicted under the anti-sodomy statute. So the blackmail was considered, by far, the worst crime.
GROSS: So what was the place of prostitutes in gay Berlin?
BEACHY: You know, first of all, maybe it's important to try to account for this male prostitution. And one of the ways in which people have explained this is just to talk about Berlin as a military city or a garrison city. So there had always been a lot of Prussian soldiers, ever since the 18th century, since the 17th century, who were stationed there or who had posts there, who lived there in barracks. And soldier prostitution was considered an age-old phenomenon. Soldiers were, in some respects, at the very bottom of any kind of social pecking order. They were badly treated, badly paid. And one of the ways that they could make a little bit of pocket money was simply to sell themselves for sex…

‘Gay Berlin,’ by Robert Beachy
OCT. 31, 2014
…Robert Beachy’s excellent and richly documented new book, “Gay Berlin: Birthplace of a Modern Identity,” merely touches on these horrors. Instead, he takes the reader to the other end of the spectrum of opinion — that homosexuality is and has always been a sexual orientation fixed from birth, that same-sex love is as normal as heterosexuality, a condition not amenable to treatment but rather an endowment of nature that should be respected as part of a person’s identity…
The significance of Beachy’s book goes beyond his findings on the German roots of the conclusion that homosexuality is a biologically fixed trait. Beachy’s work must also be considered in the larger context of a shift in cultural studies. Both the Wilhelmine and Weimar periods are no longer seen — as they were in the early post-1945 decades — as an autocratic divergence from the Western liberal-democratic model of political and sociocultural development that culminated in Nazism. Notwithstanding many elements of a traditional authoritarianism, Weimar was a modern society, one that France, Britain and the United States could in some ways be seen as lagging behind. Rather than viewing the 1920s as a period that led inevitably to the Nazi dictatorship, many historians now study the contradictions of Weimar modernity, with Berlin seen as a major center of political, socioeconomic and cultural diversity…

In either case, there is no love in the twisted use of the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices for selfish gain. Allowing the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices to exist unchallenged by truth or giving into them only increases their power and the violent destruction of millions of people, including children. "...unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit." There comes a time, when we must face the truth, the truth about ourselves and stand up for it - out of love. This is what it means to lose our lives for Christ. No, it is not easy. It is never easy. But strangely God helps us along this way, even when it seems we are alone. Ask Pope Francis for more details in this regard, it appears he has been a veteran many times over on this road, untwisting the abused meaning of the word love, by finding truth and backing it by his example.

Pope overhauls key institute to reflect his vision of family
September 19, 2017
Theological Institute for the Marriage and Family Sciences
ROME (AP) — Pope Francis has overhauled the Vatican institute most closely associated with the conservative sexual morals promoted by St. John Paul II, saying it was necessary to adapt and expand its mission to address the reality of today's Catholics.
Officials said Tuesday the revamped John Paul II Theological Institute for the Marriage and Family Sciences will offer degrees in the social sciences — such as sociology, anthropology, psychology — as well as biology and other sciences, reflecting a vision of the family that goes well beyond strict Catholic theology.
The new mission takes its inspirational cues from the vision of marriage and family life contained in Francis' controversial 2016 document "The Joy of Love."
That document called for the church to accompany even those Catholics living in "imperfect" family situations such as divorce and cohabitation, confirming Francis' vision of the church as more of a "field hospital" for wounded souls than a privileged home for the perfect…
Its new mission statement says the church, while remaining faithful to Christ's teaching, must look "with the understanding of love and wise realism, to the reality of families today in all their complexities, in their light and shadows."
The inclusion of biological sciences in the curriculum, and a mission statement that cites a focus on human "regeneration" and care for the planet, suggests that the revamped institute will address human sexuality, the environment and the church's position on artificial contraception…

This gay child is powerless to suppress the functioning of his gay sexual orientation impulses, which . This gay child will begin to internalize the ignorance and fear of the societal antigay prejudices of his parents that was manifested in the social environment, in which his parents were raised. Every time this gay child, as a teenager begins experiencing being emotionally and physically sexually aroused by his male classmates, he will endlessly feel the guilt and shame of the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices. This gay child was forced to wrongly believe that he has the power to stop feeling the emotional and physical sexual arousal of other male classmates, which he can no more stop than he stop himself from breathing.
Even if we attempt to hold our breaths till we turn-blue-in-the-face our bodies will override our efforts and force us to begin breathing again (http://kidshealth.org/en/parents/spells.html).
Turn blue while holding your breath
…When the oxygen levels in our blood drop, that blood turns a darker shade of red. Now, if you hold your breath long enough so that the oxygen level in your blood drops to about 80 percent of what it normally is, you’d start looking bluish. This is due to the way our tissues absorb and reflect back light.
Obviously, you can’t hold your breath long enough for your oxygen levels to drop to the required level. You’d pass out long before the oxygen level in your blood dropped low enough to make you turn blue. And at that point, you’d automatically start breathing again… http://indianapublicmedia.org/amomentofscience/why-it-isnt-easy-being-blue/
Interesting to note that the same is true in regards to our attempts to permanently suppress our sexual orientation from functioning. In a way, we lose consciousness through our mental dissociation from our gay sexual orientation, but regardless our sexual orientation will continue to function automatically, never missing a beat. Again, the continuous automatic functioning of our sexual orientation, regardless how dissociated a person may be from accepting the truth about his gay sexual orientation - was proven by the research study 2012, at Cornell University, "The Eyes Have It: Sex and Sexual Orientation Differences in Pupil Dilation Patterns." So, no matter how severely dissociated a gay person may be about the truth if his gay sexual orientation, his body will become sexually aroused whenever he sees or thinks about an attractive male person or persons. It is important to realize that these physical and emotional aspects of a gay sexual orientation remain unidentified, unverbalized and undifferentiated by a dissociated gay individual, which are experienced as vague and confusing.
Therefore, a dissociated state of mind about one's gay sexual orientation will be expressed in any number of disguised and distorted ways, which are referred to as “acting out.” This form of dissociation of acting out sexually - can be extremely dangerous for the individual, as well as others. The dissociated gay individual can be overwhelmed by his unacknowledged and therefore unmodulated physical and emotional aspects of being sexually aroused over someone that can lead to his blindly acting out, in some of the most embarrassing and even inappropriate ways, such as becoming quite furiously when he feels rejected. But in many ways he is acting out a fantasy of his making - not in touch with reality and then becoming furious over a figment of his imagination, when he feels rejected by someone he had strong dissociated sexual feelings for, though unbeknown by the other person.

P r o j e c t i o n
When an internal impulse provokes too much anxiety, the ego may reduce that anxiety by attributing the unwanted impulse to an external object, usually another person. This is the defense mechanism of projection, which can be defined as seeing in others unacceptable feelings or tendencies that actually reside in one’s own unconscious (Freud, 1915/1957b)….
An extreme type of projection is paranoia, a mental disorder characterized by powerful delusions of jealousy and persecution. Paranoia is not an inevitable outcome of projection but simply a severe variety of it. According to Freud (1922/1955), a crucial distinction between projection and paranoia is that paranoia is always characterized by repressed homosexual feelings toward the persecutor. Freud believed that the persecutor is inevitably a former friend of the same sex [or a brother], although sometimes people may transfer their delusions onto a person of the opposite sex. When homosexual impulses become too powerful, persecuted paranoiacs defend themselves by reversing these feelings and then projecting them onto their original object [the former friend of the same sex (or brother)]. For men, the transformation proceeds as follows. Instead of saying, “I love him,” the paranoid person says, “I hate him.” Because this also produces too much anxiety, he says, “He hates me.” At this point, the person has disclaimed all responsibility and can say, “I like him fine, but he’s got it in for me.” The central mechanism in all paranoia is projection with accompanying delusions of jealousy and persecution…

This severely complex delusional behavioral acting out can create long-lasting unfortunate consequences that never need have happened, if the gay person had never was forced to suppress his gay sexual orientation in early childhood. And who is responsible for these most tragic situations and worst??? Who is promoting and who is profiting the most by maintaining - the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices by suppressing the science on homosexuality?
And although, the gay person may be dissociated from the reality of his sexual orientation, his behavioral acting out episodes or escapades are easily identifiable to others, as being gay oriented. Photos, Part 2
Acting out is a psychological term from the parlance of defense mechanisms and self-control, meaning to perform an action in contrast to bearing and managing the impulse to perform it. The acting done is usually anti-social and may take the form of acting on the impulses of an addiction (e.g. drinking, drug taking or shoplifting) or in a means designed (often unconsciously or semi-consciously) to garner attention (e.g. throwing a tantrum or behaving promiscuously).
In general usage, the action performed is destructive to self or others and may inhibit the development of more constructive responses to the feelings in question. The term is used in this way in sexual addiction treatment, psychotherapy, criminology and parenting…

This induced lost of consciousness of one’s gay sexual orientation has been, again, never been more visibly demonstrated than by any other group in the world as it has been by the majority of the members of the Roman Catholic curia and hierarchy, especially in Europe and in the United States. They have become infamous: 1. by their obsessive antigay crusade of silencing and removing theologians, priests, sisters, etc. that has lasted continuously for the past several decades - entirely unsupported of any science on homosexuality and 2. by their endless closeted gay sexual acting out escapades. We have observed the same dissociated gay sexual acing out behaviors among politicians and the religious leaders, who are extremely publicly antigay and are found having anonymous gay sex in public restrooms, or procuring male prostitutes, or arranging to travel with a paid gay escort.
a well-informed, well considered and yet fervent
public conviction that the
most deadly of all possible sins
is the mutilation of a child’s spirit
Erik Erikson
We are witnessing the innocent beauty of the attachment of an infant bonding with his parents. Then we will observe the blossoming of innocent adolescence first love. Sadly, we then observed the devastating contrast of the lifelong harmful effects caused when that nurturing bond between the infant and parental empathic caring is broken. We can see the lifelong deteriorating effects that Rene Spitz discovered that happens when an infant suffers the lethal effects caused by the lack of love. We can see how the traumatic event that happens in early childhood - the mutilation of a child’s spirit occurs when a gay child is subjected to the influence of the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices that turns out gay children to be emotionally crippled and obsessively antigay consumed like the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy. And thus they needlessly become exploitable bait for to be blackmailed by far less scrupulous individuals for selfish gain. It sends these closeted gay prelates forever looking for love in all the wrong places.
Austrian psychoanalyst and physician
Rene Spitz proposed…that infants in institutions suffered from
lack of love–that they were missing
important parental relationships,
which in turn was hurting or
even killing them.

Cause of Various - A d d i c t i v e - O b s e s s i v e Acting out Behaviors
Cause of Various - A d d i c t i v e - O b s e s s i v e Acting out Behaviors
The curia and hierarchy have internalized the ignorance and fears societal antigay prejudices of their respective social environments while growing up during their early childhood years. Reaching adulthood - they firming believe that these societal antigay prejudices are innate, coming from God, but this is not true. In fact, the exact opposite is true - societal antigay prejudices are based on the absence of God, they are a denial of God’s presence in all of creation. This is because they have denied recognizing the science on homosexuality, but much less to openly dialogue about it. It is dubious when someone speaks of innate religious aspects related to creation in regards to human beings, who have disregarded science in a their summation. Not to heed the words of Pope John Paul II of never separating science and religion is to negate truth and thereby eclipsing the value and meaning of love - thus allowing the definition of love to be arbitrarily twisted around and redefined to mean the opposite of real love, as described by Benedict XVI. In the 2009 encyclical “Caritas in veritate” written by Benedict XVI - he explains that without the light of truth that comes from the dialogue between science and religion there is no love.
John Paul II, in his letter dated, June 1, 1988, to Father George V. Coyne, Director of the Vatican Observatory, he not only stressed that a “more thorough-going dialogue” continue between science and religion, including that every “regressive tendency to a unilateral reductionism, to fear, and to self-imposed isolation” must be avoided. He repeatedly stressed the crucial importance that science and religion both maintain their “autonomy and their distinctiveness…Each should possess its own principles, its pattern of procedures, its diversities of interpretation and its own conclusions.” “Yet the unity that we seek, as we have already stressed, is not identity. The Church does not propose that science should become religion or religion science. On the contrary, unity always presupposes the diversity and the integrity of its elements.” In his encyclical Fides et Ratio - he quotes the verse from the Gospel of John:
You will know the truth, and the truth
will make you free
John 8:32
The strength of this verse is depended on the “profound unity which allows them to stand in harmony with their nature without compromising their mutual autonomy. The parrhesia of faith must be matched by the boldness of reason.” This would appear to be the acid test, if one has found truth and is set free.
It seems self-evident that as group that from all the reported and video accounts related the members of the curia and hierarchy within the Vatican, such as the Vatileaks 2012 that what they claim to be the truth about homosexuality - has hardly set them free, not-by-a-long-shot - meaning - absolutely not. Instead they have been in prisoned by their detail of the science on homosexuality. The evidence that verifies the truth of this statement comes from the extensive reports, documentation, and public interviews gather over the past several decades related to the curia and hierarchy that is found by:- (A) their endless infighting, scheming and cold-blooded murder through gossip, including not only (B) the complete absence of the science on homosexuality for the past 60 years, but also (C) the decades of their ruthlessly fierce and obsessive antigay crusade, silencing and removing anyone who openly discussed this science on homosexuality, including their publicly well established extensive (D) closeted gay sexual escapades, the sexual acting out behaviors by seriously repressed homosexual prelates i.e. procuring male prostitutes, drug-fueled gay sex orgy, anonymous gay sexual affairs at gay saunas, spas and numerous meeting places in and around Rome, has been so pervasive for decades that they had become exploitable bait and have been (E) blackmailed by outsiders for selfish gain - some connections are directly (F) related to the entrenched corruption that engulf the curia, especially surrounding the IOR (Vatican bank), with all the above culminating in the recent Burmese condom/Burke/Boeselager/Lepanto Institute/Knights of Malta affair January 2017 (https://international.la-croix.com/news/the-pope-faces-his-adversaries/4565).
Clearly, the truth that the majority of the members of the curia and the hierarchy has espoused regarding homosexuality, which is their internalization of the ignorance and fears societal antigay prejudices that they firmly believe to be innate as designed by God - has by no means set them free. Instead they have become in prisoned by what they believe to be innate, as noted by their inability to empathically relate with people, living isolated from the people that are suppose to be serving.
It is extraordinary that collectively they present surprisingly the same behavioral symptoms of repressed homosexuals living a torturous lifestyle by, as listed above, feverishly repressing any overt acknowledgment of homosexuality that has remain constant and unchanged for decades. They have not heeded the words of Pope John Paul II about not separating science from religion and allowing each to remain distinctly different from each other and that “The parrhesia of faith must be matched by the boldness of reason.” Collectively, in a homosexual dissociated state of mind - for some members it is a more severe state of dissociation - this is what the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy have done by completely ignoring all the science on homosexuality for the past 60 years, separating it from religion. Why have they done this? How were they able or allowed to ignore the words of John Paul II, regarding science and religion?
I believe based on evidence though not substantial that they have unknowingly repeated Hitler’s and McCarthy’s antigay demagoguery, in addition professing it to be innately coming from God, because that it is what they honestly, however erroneously, believe to be true. Due to their absence of science, what they believe to be true is actually - the internalization of the societal antigay prejudices of their respective social environments that they were subjected to while growing up during their early childhood years. Because their antigay behavior is consistently obsessive, reveals that they were early childhood victims of the child abuse of being forced to suppress their gay sexual orientation. Their obsessive antigay acting out behavior has been relentless and unchanging over time - is proof that the functioning of one’s sexual orientation operates 24/7 outside their conscious awareness, because the interrelated biological and psychological processes of sexual orientation that are not able to be consciously controlled or suppressed, because they are under the control the autonomic nervous system - like the hearts beating and breathing. They have also proven the fact that suppression of a gay child’s sexual orientation is a severe violent form of child abuse that socially acceptable and approved by the Catholic Church, because as is the case with child abuse, as an adult there is the great tendency to identify with the aggressive abuser they experienced as a child and perpetuate the same violent form of child abuse.
Also, as has been found that those who have been abuse as children tend to be susceptible to be exploited as adults. There is significant evidence indicating that many members of the curia and hierarchy have been exploited by outsiders. These outsiders are using the very same ignorance and fear of the societal antigay prejudices that the curia and hierarchy believe to be innate to blackmail them for selfish gain - exactly like Hitler and the Nazi regime that gave Hitler the dictatorship of Nazi Germany that led to the death of 70 million people by the end of World War II, 1945. However, now 72 years later - the atrocities are well over 10 times more than in 1945. During the reign of Hitler and Nazi regime 1933-1945 Pope Pius XII worked relentlessly in opposition to Nazism and the Catholic clergy were lethally attacked. This time around the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy due their erroneously innate belief about societal antigay prejudices they have unwittingly played right into the hands of those who pushed globalization that supported profit over the lives of people. Pope Francis coming from Buenos Aires, Argentina has no internalization of societal antigay prejudices, because the social environment of Argentina since the late 1800s men have been dancing the tango together. There were no Hitlers or McCarthys exploiting societal antigay prejudices in Argentina, because there were no societal antigay prejudices in Argentina, nothing compared to the US and Europe. Pope Francis has worked relentless to establish truth to regain love and reverse the devastation of globalization to millions of people’s lives. Pope Francis expresses true empathy for all people, especially for those in most need of our help, the homeless and starving without generating violence. He is the opposite of the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy, because he was not abused in early childhood.
Pope Francis learned and experienced the meaning of the verse from the Gospel of John:
You will know the truth, and the truth
will make you free
John 8:32
He was able to do this partly because he was not raised in the lethally severe societal antigay prejudices of Europe or the US and because of who he is and I do not mean being the pope. I mean he is an autonomous individual, which is sadly not true of the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy. They are a living example of the lifelong harmful effects caused by the ignorance and fears of societal antigay prejudices to children during their early childhood years growing up gay.
LETTER OF HIS HOLINESS JOHN PAUL II
TO REVEREND GEORGE V. COYNE, S.J. DIRECTOR OF THE VATICAN OBSERVATORY
TO REVEREND GEORGE V. COYNE, S.J. DIRECTOR OF THE VATICAN OBSERVATORY
June 1, 1988
…By encouraging openness between the Church and the scientific communities, we are not envisioning a disciplinary unity between theology and science like that which exists within a given scientific field or within theology proper. As dialogue and common searching continue, there will be grow towards mutual understanding and a gradual uncovering of common concerns which will provide the basis for further research and discussion. Exactly what form that will take must be left to the future. What is important, as we have already stressed, is that the dialogue should continue and grow in depth and scope. In the process we must overcome every regressive tendency to a unilateral reductionism, to fear, and to self-imposed isolation. What is critically important is that each discipline should continue to enrich, nourish and challenge the other to be more fully what it can be and to contribute to our vision of who we are and who we are becoming.
We might ask whether or not we are ready for this crucial endeavour. Is the community of world religions, including the Church, ready to enter into a more thorough-going dialogue with the scientific community, a dialogue in which the integrity of both religion and science is supported and the advance of each is fostered? Is the scientific community now prepared to open itself to Christianity, and indeed to all the great world religions, working with us all to build a culture that is more humane and in that way more divine? Do we dare to risk the honesty and the courage that this task demands? We must ask ourselves whether both science and religion will contribute to the integration of human culture or to its fragmentation. It is a single choice and it confronts us all.
For a simple neutrality is no longer acceptable. If they are to grow and mature, peoples cannot continue to live in separate compartments, pursuing totally divergent interests from which they evaluate and judge their world. A divided community fosters a fragmented vision of the world; a community of interchange encourages its members to expand their partial perspectives and form a new unified vision.
Yet the unity that we seek, as we have already stressed, is not identity. The Church does not propose that science should become religion or religion science. On the contrary, unity always presupposes the diversity and the integrity of its elements. Each of these members should become not less itself but more itself in a dynamic interchange, for a unity in which one of the elements is reduced to the other is destructive, false in its promises of harmony, and ruinous of the integrity of its components. We are asked to become one. We are not asked to become each other.
To be more specific, both religion and science must preserve their autonomy and their distinctiveness. Religion is not founded on science nor is science an extension of religion. Each should possess its own principles, its pattern of procedures, its diversities of interpretation and its own conclusions. Christianity possesses the source of its justification within itself and does not expect science to constitute its primary apologetic. Science must bear witness to its own worth. While each can and should support the other as distinct dimensions of a common human culture, neither ought to assume that it forms a necessary premise for the other. The unprecedented opportunity we have today is for a common interactive relationship in which each discipline retains its integrity and yet is radically open to the discoveries and insights of the other…
Science can purify religion from error and superstition; religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes. Each can draw the other into a wider world, a world in which both can flourish.
For the truth of the matter is that the Church and the scientific community will inevitably interact; their options do not include isolation…
Fides et Ratio (14 September 1998) | John Paul II
CHAPTER IV - THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FAITH AND REASON
The drama of the separation of faith and reason
45. With the rise of the first universities, theology came more directly into contact with other forms of learning and scientific research. Although they insisted upon the organic link between theology and philosophy, Saint Albert the Great and Saint Thomas were the first to recognize the autonomy which philosophy and the sciences needed if they were to perform well in their respective fields of research. From the late Medieval period onwards, however, the legitimate distinction between the two forms of learning became more and more a fateful separation. As a result of the exaggerated rationalism of certain thinkers, positions grew more radical and there emerged eventually a philosophy which was separate from and absolutely independent of the contents of faith. Another of the many consequences of this separation was an ever deeper mistrust with regard to reason itself. In a spirit both sceptical and agnostic, some began to voice a general mistrust, which led some to focus more on faith and others to deny its rationality altogether…
48. …This is why I make this strong and insistent appeal—not, I trust, untimely— that faith and philosophy recover the profound unity which allows them to stand in harmony with their nature without compromising their mutual autonomy. The parrhesia of faith must be matched by the boldness of reason.
CHAPTER VII - CURRENT REQUIREMENTS AND TASKS
The indispensable requirements of the word of God
80. …The intimate essence of God and of the human being become intelligible: in the mystery of the Incarnate Word, human nature and divine nature are safeguarded in all their autonomy, and at the same time the unique bond which sets them together in mutuality without confusion of any kind is revealed.

It is unfortunate that there is no forum in the Roman Catholic Church, at present to explain the following in the privacy of a trusted, and just group responsible hierarchical members who are objectively well-informed, educated on the science on homosexuality, who have not internalized societal antigay prejudices. However, this disease that believes that societal antigay prejudices are erroneous innate has been filtered throughout the canon lawyers chosen for because they are in agreement with this same erroneous belief, who are equally separated from the science on homosexuality. Therefore, due to the enshrined arrogance and the fierce self-righteous attitude that tightly imprisons the blindness of these men permitting their global violence to continue unchallenged - regardless for the protection of children around the world, I am left with no other choice but to explain it openly now. Perhaps this is the best way to explain it, even though it is the only option available at this time - for a group in authority who has become completely insulated in their shared dissociated repressed homosexual acting out behavior that has blinded them from accessing truth and therefore make judgments that are void of both truth and the love of God. They epitomized the arbitrary twisting of the meaning and value of love to mean the exact opposite though disguised as coming from God. And in all truth, they appear not to be willfully responsible for their situation, because they have been indoctrinated with this false truth - as very young children through the child abuse of being forced to suppress their gay sexual orientation.
A long winded, however, necessary explanation for revealing the following. Since, the arrival of Pope Francis from Argentina - the striking contrast in his respectful attitude and treatment of all gay people - has not only exposed the longstanding contemptuous attitude and treatment of gay people shared by the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy. But in addition his arrival has exposed a much deeper understanding of the ontology of this dissociated repressed homosexual violent and aggressive behavior, lasting decades, and the contributing related historical aspects. The interactions between Pope Francis and the long established patterns of the curia and hierarchy was the cause of this pervasive exposure of the ontology of their internalized societal antigay prejudices, including the absence of truth and love, though erroneously perceived as the innate - order created by God.
It is not only the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices, that have been internalized by the curia and hierarchical members raised in Europe - in the wake of the atrocities of Hitler and the Nazi regime. It is also the arbitrary and blatant abuse of science exploited and twisted around to legitimizing their ideology of Nazism that has been internalized. This form of internalization includes Hitler’s and the Nazi regime strategic use of propaganda by the Nazi Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels to arbitrarily increase society fear of homosexuals by adding false claims such as, that homosexuals abused children. This was done to heighten powerful effect of the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices making it a decisive political weapon to be exploited to silence and remove the Nazi opposition to concentration camps (originally called re-education centers) who threatened to expose the truth of the inhuman atrocities of Nazism.
The German Roman Catholic clergy were Hitler’s and the Nazis - prime targets, who were outspoken condemning Nazism, encouraged by Archbishop Eugenio Pacelli (soon to be Pope Pius XII) the papal nuncio to Germany (1917–1929), a tedious pre-war critic of Nazism. Hitler could not publicly remove and silence the anti-nazi opposition of the Catholic clergy, because it would have created a public outrage against the Nazis and would threaten further exposure of their secrets of Nazism. The Nazis used their fabricated - deceitful addition to fortified societal antigay prejudices as a weapon to falsely accused the outspoken Catholic clergy of being homosexuals, a crime at that time in Germany. Just as the Nazis formulated a pseudo-science to legitimize the ideology of Nazism, they used their contrived antigay societal prejudices to disguise and to legitimize their silencing and removal of the Catholic clergy, 1000s of priests were sent to concentration camps were they died.
These false - fabricated claims made by the Hitler and the Nazi regime against homosexuals have been internalized the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy and they reiterated the same endlessly regardless of the wealth of science on homosexuality that has proven that there is no link between homosexuality and pedophilia.
They have been reiterated endlessly by the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy for decades due the to 24/7 autonomic functioning of sexual orientation that is not under anyone’s conscious control - like the heart beating and breathing. It is under the control of the autonomic nervous system. This because they have been forced to suppress their gay sexual orientation during day childhood, which they have no power to suppress. What they have been able to repress in part is the emotional aspect of sexual orientation, but not physical aspect. However, whenever there is any overt mentioning of gay people, or attraction to male person or thoughts of the same - the repressed emotional aspect of their gay sexual orientation will raise to the surface of their unconscious mind with the same intensity the forced it to be repressed in early childhood. They will feel the same overall traumatic reaction, when their innocent expression of love, as a child, was met with a surprising rejection. That is when they had internalized the ignorance and fear of the societal antigay prejudices - unchanged from that period of time in history. What drives their antigay obsession is the automatic and continuous functioning of the gay sexual orientation, which they are powerless to control nor will they attempt to learn the truth about homosexuality, because they believe it is innately condemned by God. It is a vicious cycle of addictive behavior that can only be broken, when someone is able to risk dying to self to learn the truth. It is the grain of wheat that has to die in order to be reborn to bear fruit. It is also about the words of St. Paul describing transformation of thinking like a child to thinking as an adult.
Truly, truly, I say to you,
unless a grain of wheat falls
into the earth and dies,
into the earth and dies,
it remains alone; but if it dies,
it bears much fruit.
He who loves his life loses it, and
he who hates his life in this world will keep it to life eternal.
If anyone serves Me,
he must follow Me; and
he must follow Me; and
where I am,
there My servant will be also;
there My servant will be also;
if anyone serves Me,
the Father will honor him.
the Father will honor him.
John 12: 23-26
When I was a child, I talked like a child,
I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.
1 Corinthians 13:11
This seems to be an extremely difficult transformation to make, if one was born and raised in a severely antigay social environment and then becoming a priest and living in a community of clerics who have all internalized the same fierce societal antigay prejudices. In these communities, like the Vatican - where everything appears as normal as rain, on the outside - regardless if it the person feels that all hope of happiness is non existent. And this person attributes this pervasive feeling of sadness and isolation - as justified and deserving of - due to what they believe is because of all the shame and guilt this person feels being unable to completely suppress the automatic and continuous functions of his unacknowledged gay sexual orientation. However, in the Vatican - the fact is this person is not alone in his internal feelings of sadness and hopelessness - including his homoerotic feelings that likely more often than not - he does nothing to elicit these gay sexual feelings. This because his homoerotic feeling are not under his conscious control - they are the product of his continuous and automatic functioning of his gay sexual orientation, which is under the control of the autonomic nervous system. However, his erroneous belief about truth of societal antigay prejudices will consume his life - exhausting his psychic energy attempting to repress something that he cannot repress and becoming needlessly overwhelmed with guilt and shame because he failed endlessly control his homoerotic feelings, which is something he has no power to control.
These homoerotic feelings come on without warning and at times they can be so overwhelming, and impossible to repress. At these times, in varying degrees homosexual dissociation - from being clueless - to being somewhat aware of his gay sexual orientation - can lead a person to acting out sexually or to displace, or project his homoerotic feelings on another person and then to feel justified to take his anger out on this other person, because he is unable to acknowledge and accept his own gay sexual orientation.
This is the summation of this unsubstantiated attempt to remove me from the priesthood that needs to be publicly exposed.
The complete absence of the continuous ongoing dialogue between the science and religion on the sexual orientation of homosexuality, beginning at the Vatican - is what allows this twisted clerical status quo to exist and to be exploited for selfish gain just like Hitler and the Nazis did that led to the deaths of 70 million people by the end of WWII and to the blackmailing of the closeted gay prelates.
It is of significant importance how Pope Francis initiated this open discussion on homosexuality 2014-2015 and it was extraordinary how emotionally explosively it was negatively challenged by the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy, including priests. All this fierce emotional negative reactions - in the complete absence of any science on homosexuality. What gives that no one notices this unconscionable behavior? Or maybe people do notice it and it lowers their respect and faith in the hierarchical Church, others mirror the same behavior and for the rich and powerful it gives them license to do the same.
The Eyes Have It: Sex and Sexual Orientation Differences in Pupil Dilation Patterns
August 3. 2012
…pupil dilation to stimuli indicates activation of the autonomic nervous system. This system is associated with many automatic processes such as perspiration, digestion, blood pressure, and heart rate. For this reason, pupil dilation has been used as indicator of automatic response, for example, in studies of implicit reaction and cognitive load. Other research suggests that pupil dilation can reflect automatic attention, or attention that is likely not in the conscious control of participants. It is therefore unlikely that participants suppress pupil dilation to stimuli they are sexually attracted to. Pupil dilation patterns could therefore reflect, with high sensitivity, automatic attention related to sexual attraction and sexual orientation…

This system is associated with many automatic processes such as perspiration, digestion, blood pressure, and heart rate. For this reason, pupil dilation has been used as indicator of automatic response, for example, in studies of implicit reaction and cognitive load. Other research suggests that pupil dilation can reflect automatic attention, or attention that is likely not in the conscious control of participants. It is therefore unlikely that participants suppress pupil dilation to stimuli they are sexually attracted to. Pupil dilation patterns could therefore reflect, with high sensitivity, automatic attention related to sexual attraction and sexual orientation…

We cannot see how twisted this antigay clerical behavior is and yet we allow these clerics to make judgments, such as attempting to remove me from the priesthood that is in actually is their homoerotic feelings being projected onto me. This twisted form of their use of canon law to repressed their own homoerotic feeling by projecting them onto anyone in the Church who openly discusses the science of homosexuality. Projecting their homoerotic feelings on those who were responsible enough to - begin the necessary dialogue between science and religion on the topic of homosexuality. They have endlessly been able to use this twisted repressed homosexual form of acting out behavior without any oversight, because the overall organization culture of the curia is saturated with the same repressed homosexual behavioral acting out episodes. This is a historical phenomena that - the Vatican nearly completely staff with severely repressed homosexuals prelates. There is plenty of evidence to substantiated this statement, including this foolish attempt to remove me from the priesthood, because I came out prevent same lifelong harmful effects that has engulfed the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy - from happening to children around the world.
However, for the past 30 years or more, as severely repressed homosexuals the members of the curia and hierarchy - have projected their homoerotic feelings onto those people in the Church, sisters, priests, theologians, etc. who openly discussed the science on homosexuality to silence and removed people in the Church, who threaten to break through their dissociated repressed homosexual shield. We have witnessed just how ruthlessly fierce their dissociated repressed homosexual shield is - by their immediate collective emotional explosive negative reaction to the midterm report of the Synod on Family session October 2014, regarding the simple human respect of empathically discussing how to pastorally be more welcoming to gay people and their families. All their long lasting hysteria - completely absence of the science on homosexuality - was most revealing. They vividly mirror the fabricated - deceitful antigay propaganda of Hitler and the Nazis - regardless of the complete absence of truth. Their absence of dialogue between science and religion on homosexuality, as it did then during Hitler and the Nazi regime 1933-1945 and as it has now “comes only at an enormous price to human development…”
REASON always stands in need of
being purified by faith:
this also holds true for political reason,
which must not consider itself OMNIPOTENT.
For its part, RELIGION always needs to be
purified by reason in order to show its
authentically human face.
Any breach in this dialogue comes only
at an enormous price to human development…

Caritas in veritate
Pope Benedict XVI 2009
For the curia and hierarchy, in particular the, Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, to make judgments condemning issues related to homosexuality, without a thorough working knowledge of the science on homosexuality - what else can their judgments be - but their own repressed homoerotic feelings being projected onto others.
The curia and hierarchy unconsciously project their homoerotic feelings on to others that is generated by the continuous and automatic functioning of their gay sexual orientation. They have been dissociated from the reality of their gay sexual orientation, since their early childhood years. Because at that time - the curia and hierarchy were traumatized as children - by violently being forced to suppress their gay sexual orientation, which as children - they had no concept of and which no one has the power to consciously control. As we learn from the science on homosexuality - this due to the fact that the interrelated biological (physical) and psychological (emotional) processes of sexual orientation that are functioning continuously and automatically are under the control of the autonomic nervous system, like the heart beating and breathing.
The curia and hierarchy were traumatized out of parental ignorance and fear indoctrinated by the powerful influence of unsubstantiated societal antigay prejudices. Which in turn as children they had internalized these unsubstantiated societal antigay prejudices of the social environments where they were born and raised.
The curia and hierarchy - reaching their adolescence years, still dissociated from the accepting the reality of their gay sexual orientation. However, because they were traumatized into erroneously believing that they could suppress the increased reoccurring homoerotic feelings generated by the continuous and automatic functioning of their gay sexual orientation - they consequentially and simultaneously were experiencing tremendous bouts of reoccurring guilt and shame producing intolerable anxiety. Dissociated and unconsciously earnestly repressing any and all homoerotic emotions and failing endlessly - their release valve, their escape from their overwhelming anxiety is to take their frustration and anger out on another person by projecting their homoerotic feeling outward onto that person. It is an immature attempt to control their internal feelings that is never is successful for obvious reasons.

Reoccurring - Homoerotic Feelings
H O M O E R O T I C P E R V E R S I O N
Canon Law - Judgments
The curia’s and hierarchy’s homosexual dissociation from the continuous and automatic reoccurring homoerotic feelings are - stemming directly from their internalization of the unsubstantiated societal antigay prejudices of the social environments where they were born and raised that took place during their early childhood years growing up gay. Because, as explained above, regarding being forced to suppress the gay sexual orientation at the very young ages of 4 and 5 years old, as adults they have erroneously come to believe that these unsubstantiated societal antigay prejudices are innate - created by God. They have arbitrarily blurred and fused the boundaries between science and religion on the reality of homosexuality that mirrors aspects of Hitler and the Nazi regime strategic formulation of the their ideology of Nazism. I do not believe that any member of the curia and hierarchy did this knowingly.
Cathedral of Light - - The 1934 rally also introduced the spectacle of the Cathedral of Light—130 anti-aircraft searchlights pointed skyward to create columns of light.
This is because there is new evidence, since the arrival of Pope Francis, that has surfaced that suggested that not only did some members of the curia and hierarchy internalized the unsubstantiated societal antigay prejudices. In addition, particularly for those members of the curia and hierarchy who, as children, have internalized Hitler’s and the Nazi regime increased fabrication of societal antigay prejudges, they have also, at that same time as children, have internalized some of the aspects of the manner, in which Hitler and the Nazis had completely destroyed the boundaries between science and religion - to arbitrarily formulate their pseudo-science to legitimize their dehumanizing ideology of Nazism and encased it in pseudo-religious terminology to gain public support. From start to finish - it was a schizophrenic formulation of reality, a severely abnormal interpretation of reality. Schizophrenia does not mean a “split personality.” This is a fine distinction, but one that is crucial to separate: - (1) a child’s internalizing the unsubstantiated societal antigay prejudices fabricated by the Nazis from having any shared association with Nazi ideology, (2) to identify the Nazis increased schizophrenic fabrication added to the societal antigay prejudices of Nazi Germany and (3) to identify how these same antigay schizophrenic fabrications are still used today, in fact they are still used by the top leadership of the Catholic Church.
One of the most common misconceptions about schizophrenia is that it is “split personality,” which is completely false. The word “schizo” does mean “split,” but Eugen Bleuler, who coined the term schizophrenia in the 1920s, was describing the rupture in the person's thinking process and emotional response.
Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder in which people interpret reality abnormally. Schizophrenia may result in some combination of hallucinations, delusions, and extremely disordered thinking and behavior that impairs daily functioning, and can be disabling.
In dealing with dissidents, troublemakers, communists, homosexuals, gipsies — anyone with an inclination not to conform to the diktats of the Nazi state — the Gestapo was utterly ruthless
The members of the curia and hierarchy who have internalized the Nazi increased schizophrenic fabrications of the societal antigay prejudices of Germany do not appear to exhibit an abnormal interpretation of reality, only that which is confined to the forced suppression of their gay sexual orientation. Hitler and the Nazi regime fabricated of these antigay schizophrenic formulations to increase the ignorance and fear of the already existing German societal antigay prejudices to create a powerful political weapon of Nazi propaganda to publicly legitimize their silencing and removing the outspoken anti-nazi opposition of the Catholic clergy, who threatened the exposure of the truth of Nazism. They were able to effectively exploit societal antigay prejudices by publicly falsely accusing 1000s of priests of being homosexuals and sending them to their deaths in concentration camps.
Nazis Unleash Vicious Attack on Roman Catholic Church
Chicago Daily Tribune: - May 29, 1937
Hitler’s increased schizophrenic fabrications of the societal antigay prejudices disguised his real intention to protect the beginning stages of implementing aspects of Nazism and at the same time Hitler was hailed as being strong on corruption, increasing his occult like popularity of being a divine ordained leader. Yes, it was diabolical. However, unknowingly this diabolical schizophrenic fabrications of the societal antigay prejudices it is being repeated by members of the curia and hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church, who as very young children grew up gay in the social environment during or in the aftermath of Hitler and the Nazi regime and were traumatized by being forced to suppress their gay sexual orientation. Because as very young children they have internalized these diabolical schizophrenic fabrications of the societal antigay prejudices and as adult members of curia and hierarchy they believe them to be innate created by God. This is how the Nazi antigay schizophrenic formulation of reality has found its way into the Roman Catholic - canonical and catechetical processes and documentation.
Hitler's Gift: The True Story of the
Scientists Expelled by the Nazi Regime
by J.S. Medawar, David Pyke
This is a blatant violation of the encyclicals and writings of Pope John Paul II (Fides et Ratio) and Pope Benedict XVI (Caritas in veritate) regarding never separating the dialogue between science and religion.
Because societal antigay prejudices are not based on the science of homosexuality - curia’s and hierarchy's judgments regarding homosexuality are not based in truth and therefore they are not about love, they are based on an arbitrary definition of love that has been twisted around to mean the exact opposite of love. Their attempt to remove me from the priesthood is the summation of this evidence. It exposes not only their homoerotic projections, but also the coercion of the corruption built on blackmail, of their clandestine closeted gay sexual acting out escapades.
Ironically, the attempt to remove me from the priesthood is stemming from the adult victims suffering from the - lifelong harmful effects caused by the child abuse of early childhood - forcing a child to suppress his gay sexual orientation influenced by the unsubstantiated societal antigay prejudices - that was the primary reason why I came out in March 1997 to help protect children from the same.
This form of human destruction - the suppression of a child’ sexual orientation of homosexuality, is the destruction of love. The absence of science makes it diabolical, it is a twisted explanation of love that means the exact opposite and worst it presented as God’s will. It is repeating Hitler and the Nazi regime - their arbitrary schizophrenic formation of a pseudo-science and pseudo-religious terminology presented as unchainable Catholic doctrine. It-is far worst than Climate Change, because it severely impairs the development of human empathy for generations, globally. It is human empathy that is needed to reverse the disastrous effects of climate change to save human life.
This fact is easily observed in countries that are severely violent against gay people e.g. throwing gay people off rooftops of 10 stories buildings to their death, as children watch. All children are traumatized by witnessing such horrific public violence (child psychopathology). These same countries have been known for generations to be absorbed in never ending internal infighting, as well as having conflictual international relationships. It is interesting that the curia mirrors the same behavioral violence of these extreme antigay social environments.
Exposure to traumatic events in childhood can have dire and long-lasting consequences, not only for traumatized children but for society as well. Green (1985) has suggested that “failure to master the trauma of childhood creates a continual need to repeat and reenact them during adult life”…There is evidence that childhood trauma is linked to later drug abuse, juvenile delinquency, and criminal behavior…Abused children may be more inclined than nonabused children to grow up to be abusing parents…Childhood trauma also appears to be implicated in debilitating adult anxiety disorders,…dissociative experiences, borderline personality disorder,…multiple personality disorder (now known as dissociative identity disorder), and adult psychiatric disturbance in general…
Unfortunately, the predominant view as late as 15 years ago was that children are generally little affected by the worst of experiences, and then not for very long…This view prevailed despite evidence from other observers—and sometimes even from supporters of the dominant view—that children respond to severe stress with behaviors that would today be recognized as symptomatic of posttraumatic stress…

Child Psychopathology
Edited by Eric J. Mash, Russell A. Barkley
Regressed emotions are not useful for information processing. They are only a burden and a challenge. In this predicament, people tend to favor one of the two available behavior patterns. Some people become stoical and suppress and/or ignore all their emotional reactions. The price of this style of operating is that they lose the ability to recognize and use emotions and become color blind to feelings. They live entirely on the basis of their reasoning, and their world-view is that the intellect is the only proper way to know what matters. In the consequence of inability to experience and be guided by one’s emotions, especially love, there is a propensity to narcissistic superiority, indifference, and to domination and exploitation of objects. The other common strategy is to use “external factors” to block, numb the painful affective somatic reactions. These individuals tend to develop the spectrum of addictions…

The above statement on climate change is not meant to imply or in any way to minimize the reality of climate change that is immensely crucial to the lives of millions of human beings. Pope Francis has also been thoroughly attentive to revive and promote the crucial need for dialogue between science and religion on the subject of the sexual orientation of homosexuality. He has not been lax in this regard in any way that I can see, beside - lax seems to have never been his style in his life. Unfortunately, it is a critical observation of the lack of empathic caring on the part of the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy that is supported by a wealth of documentation.
However, as pope, his responsibility is to be inclusive of everyone on the planet and he has been extraordinarily exceptional in this regard. It is the most positive and effective demonstration of empathy that I believe that has never been seen.
Pope highlights climate change impact on rivers
23/10/2017
(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis has expressed his concern about the effect of climate change on the most important water basins in the world in a message to a major international summit.
The Pope encouraged all those working to preserve the “precious gift” of water for the “future of humanity” in his greetings to participants of a conference organised by the International Network of Basin Organisations taking place at the Capitoline in Rome.
In the message to the “Water and Climate: Meeting the Great Rivers of the World” event, Pope Francis hoped that the joint efforts of participants would lead to practical solutions, and also “highlight the need for an more integrated approach with a view to promoting development and a spread of the culture of care.”
Reading out the communiqué to delegates, Holy See Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin said: “In particular, Pope Francis trusts that the threat posed by climate change to our brothers and sisters in the most vulnerable countries can find timely and effective responses.
“Entrusting the deliberations of the summit to the guidance of the Almighty, His Holiness invokes the blessings of wisdom and perseverence to the participants and to all who are engaged in advancing a greater attention to our common home.”
The three-day conference is being hosted by the Italian Ministry for Environment, Land and Sea, in partnership with the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE). It aims to build support for financing projects to address the impact of floods and droughts on water resources across the world.

EPA keeps scientists from speaking about report on climate
October 23, 2107
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — The Environmental Protection Agency kept three scientists from speaking at a Monday event in a move condemned by researchers and Democratic members of Congress as an attempt by the agency to silence a discussion of climate change.
The scientists were scheduled to discuss a report on the health of Narragansett Bay, New England's largest estuary. Among the findings in the 500-page report is that climate change is affecting air and water temperatures, precipitation, sea level and fish.
The EPA didn't explain why the scientists were told not to speak, but said in a statement that the agency supports the program that published the document, the Narragansett Bay Estuary Program, with a $600,000 annual grant. The EPA is the sole funder of the program.
`"EPA scientists are attending, they simply are not presenting; it is not an EPA conference," agency spokeswoman Nancy Grantham said in a statement Monday.
Several people involved in the report and members of the state's congressional delegation likened it to scientific censorship. They cited EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt, who has rejected the scientific consensus on climate change…

Pope Francis’s face-to-face manner, established over a lifetime, of working with people through their extreme life and death situations problems is dynamically being empathic to their needs. The knowledge and insight that Pope Francis gains from these face-to-face encounters that remain continuous, are like medical X-rays, MRI scans and the like. Retaining this acquired face-to-face knowledge, it appears that Pope Francis then using the same face-to-face means of dialogue - he earnestly begins searching for solutions through the academic fields of study of both science and theology (scripture, spirituality). Like a computer search engine he begins meeting and discussing with the specialists from these fields of study, involving them in the search for possible solutions to meet the immediate and long range needs of these people.
Throughout this process, in his own words, Pope Francis spends a great deal of time in discernment through prayer, as he continues of confer openly with his clerical colleagues. It appears to be a long, tedious, and exhausting that is a thorough process that at the end - a person in authority, like Pope Francis, is standing more solidly on rock than on sand, when that person makes his or her final decision. Pope Francis’s humility subtlety comes through. Be assured that even after this long arduous process there tends to be, I have found and observed - a slight lingering feeling of doubt that one has to live with. As I observe this possibility might be true with Pope Francis, as it is true for anyone, I imagine, - who goes through this totally draining process. However, on the other hand, the people who complain about a decision - tend to have no idea of all that was involved to reach a final decision.
I get overwhelmingly exhausted just attempting to recount, what I perceive - through reviewing the published documentation of Pope Francis - to be the details involved in this process of Pope Francis. What he is doing - is actually a pastoral research, which of course is more inclusive than all the above, because one is empathically dealing with the face-to-face diversity of the traumatic lives of people.
Facial recognition and emotional traumatic events are the two most salient memory systems we have as human beings. To empathically meet with someone face-to-face - who is suffering in a life and death situation that memory is not forgotten. In brief, those types of memories become etched in our brains and tend to become the driving motivating force in us to work for change - to prevent those life and death situations from ever happening again. (references to be provided)
The lack, seemingly complete lack of the empathic involvement into people’s traumatic life and death suffering situations - is evident by the constant complaining by some of the Church’s prelates and their supporting constituents, regarding Amoris Laetitia of Pope Francis. However, in Pope Francis’s own defense of Amoris Laetitia - one hears a slight doubt, the annoyance and the stated fact that he is not a saint. - but one also hears the empathic road map though the process of this long arduous journey and the motivating salient memories of his face-to-face encounters of tragic and traumatic sufferings of people’s lives. We are left with what sounds like the final deciding factor, that is given only after a thorough backbreaking effort that has been described above is completed - so as Christians - “what are we to do?” the choice then appears to be crystal clear and Pope Francis made the decision. What appears to be implicitly implied is to those who are complaining is to - do your homework. Everything is dependent on the ability to empathize with others. Is the ability of empathize with others LOVE?
John L. Allen Jr. editor of Crux offers some possible insight into the working process of Pope Francis regarding Amoris Laetitia - as he explains in his article date October 23, 2017 Why was Pope Francis so quick to answer these ‘dubia’?
A brief excerpt:
Given Pope Francis's usual disinclination to answer his critics, it may seem a little puzzling as to why he quickly and publicly responded to Cardinal Robert Sarah about the implications of the pontiff's recent decisions on liturgical translation. The nature of Sarah's position, the pope's readiness to be precise, and his personal investment in the issue may all help explain why Francis appears so ready to reply this time.,,
Third, we may also be dealing with differing papal levels of intensity on an issue.
On Amoris, Francis repeatedly has expressed irritation with the tight focus on the Communion debate, even suggesting he dealt with it in the document only in a footnote to emphasize that he believes there are far bigger issues when it comes to the fate of the family in the early 21st century.
Here’s how he put it in a 2016 news conference:
When I called the first synod, most of the media were concerned with one question: Will the divorced and remarried be able to receive communion? Since I am not a saint, this was somewhat annoying to me, and even made me a bit sad. Because I think: those media that say all these things, don’t they realize that’s not the important issue? Don’t they realize that the family, all over the world, is in crisis? And the family is the basis of society! Don’t they realize that young people don’t want to get married? Don’t they realize that the declining birth rate in Europe is enough to make us weep? Don’t they realize that the shortage of jobs and employment opportunities is forcing fathers and mothers to take two jobs and children to grow up by themselves and not learn how to talk with their mothers and fathers? These are the big issues!…

In attempting to travel through the working process of Pope Francis that is found in the extensive documentation of the immediacy that he faces in addressing the needs of people suffering life and death situations, globally - my mind jumps to Pope Pius XII. Pius XII was unexpectedly faced with dealing with Hitler’s delusional ideology of Nazism that Hitler believed to be innate. The atrocities that Hitler inspired had never before been recorded in human history. Ian Kershaw, the world’s leading renown historian on Hitler, states that Hitler’s place in history will be - “Primarily, as the inspiration of the most lethal and destructive war in history, and of the most terrible genocide the world has ever seen.”
It might be said that Pope Pius XII had to deal with never been seen before - traumatic direct violence. Pope Francis is dealing with never seen before - traumatic forms of structural violence that turn into direct violence - but it is destructive violence that is not immediately observed by people, globally.

Hitler and the Nazi regime built their edifice of the Third Reich from 1933 to 1945 based on Hitler’s arbitrary and irrational formulation of the pseudoscience of racial purity and presented it in pseudo-religious terminology. It was this false dehumanizing edifice of Nazism that led them to starting World War II and that ended falling, destroying them and much of Germany. By the end of World War II more than 70 million people died, equivalent to “wiping-out” the entire populations of both (a) the state of Michigan with 10 million people and (b) the country of Italy with 60 million people. It is “considered the single most destructive event in human history (Less Than Human - by David Livingstone Smith - The Psychology Of Cruelty - http://www.npr.org/2011/03/29/134956180/criminals-see-their-victims-as-less-than-human).” The Second World War from 1939-to 1945 was a global war. It was the most widespread war in history that involved over 100 million people, activated the total resources (economic, industrial, scientific capabilities) of 30 countries (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II).
Hitler's Place in History
Professor of Modern History at Sheffield University
Wednesday 27th April 2005
…How, then, should we look upon Hitler’s place in history? Primarily, as the inspiration of the most lethal and destructive war in history, and of the most terrible genocide the world has ever seen. He left behind him not just physical, but also moral, ruination such as history has never previously experienced. He represented an extreme pathology of modern society. He showed us the most radical face of modern inhumanity – how an advanced society can undergo a breathtaking descent into modern barbarity that’s quite without precedent. That’s what, with the passage of time, we can see was historically defining about Hitler. Never before Hitler’s time had we seen so clearly what human beings are capable of…
…we shouldn’t mystify Hitler’s personality. The uniqueness of Nazism can’t be reduced to that strange personality. Another time, another place, and Hitler would have had no impact at all. He couldn’t have derailed a modern society without that society itself making a major contribution to its own fate… We shouldn’t be complacent about the future. New forms of fascism and racial intolerance rightly appal and worry us…
…what we can do is to remind ourselves of the essential point about Hitler: he represented the most fundamental and frontal assault ever launched on all that we associate with humanity and civilisation. Read more: http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/0022009404042130

Persecution of Homosexuals under the Dictatorships of the Twentieth Century
Dennis Browne
…Nazi Germany provides the most extreme example and the most abundant evidence of the anti-gay agenda…
…As the government took over the German press and publishing houses, homophobic propaganda reinforced the image of homosexuality as a threat to the new order. The entry on “homosexuality” in the indispensable Meyers Lexikon, which in its Weimar edition had relied largely on Hirschfeld's point of view, was revised in the 8th edition (1936) to impugn him as an “infamous 'sex researcher',” and described homosexuality as “a threat to the Volk community, since homosexuals exhibit a tendency to form cliques, seduce the young, and, above all, undermine the natural will to life by propagating an aversion to marriage and the family.”24 As the campaign of suppression intensified, the state controlled press supported it by propagating stories about purported homosexual cliques that threatened to seduce German youth and “feminize the Männerstaat,” and by urging more drastic measures to uproot these corrupting influences.25 Lurid accounts of crimes committed by homosexuals gave the press opportunities to suggest that groups of gay men were congregating in secret places for the purpose of corrupting boys. Because of the frequency with which articles assailing homosexual behavior appeared, Stefan Micheler argues that “Nearly all Germans came into contact with Nazi homophobic propaganda.”26…
…The propaganda campaign in the press was to reach a peak during the trials of Catholic priests in 1937. These trials of priests and other members of male religious orders for having “unnatural sexual relations” and for luring children into sexual acts (and sometimes for having seduced adult women) played a significant role in the Nazi attempt to discredit the churches, and particularly the Roman Catholic Church. After the issuance of the encyclical Mit Brennender Sorge (March 21, 1937), in which Pius XI denounced the Nazi regime's “annihilatory struggle” against the Church, Goebbels' Propaganda Ministry launched a campaign against individual priests and institutions for alleged acts of pederasty. Large numbers of priests were put on trial, and these “cloister trials” received immense publicity, in which monasteries and religious houses were depicted as “breeding grounds of a repulsive epidemic.” Press accounts luxuriated in details about the activities of the “devils clad in cassocks,”and the discovery of, as one headline put it, “Bottomless Depravity in the Monastery.”27 As Richard Evans suggests, in this campaign of propaganda and prosecution, Nazi hatred of homosexuality served a useful purpose in undermining the moral authority of an institution which continued to hold the loyalty of many Germans.28…
…Most crucially, the assault on homosexuals fell under the direction of Heinrich Himmler. Homophobia was not, as Geoffrey Giles has observed, one of Hitler's obsessions. But it did obsess Himmler. Himmler's disgust with pederasty, traceable to his student days, seems to have developed into a conviction that all homosexuals are pederasts, and his ability to suggest that homosexuals posed a threat to children had the advantage of enlisting popular support for the “blanket marginalization [of gay men] as outsiders deserving of contempt.”…Himmler's action “opened the flood-gates for an unprecedented wave of public denunciations and for arbitrary actions” by the criminal police and the Gestapo.
…There was great fear in the Nazi hierarchy that homosexuality was a contagious social disease, to which “all men, including nazis themselves, could succumb.”53 There was also a strange and persistent obsession with the idea that gay men had a tendency to form cliques, which tended to threaten authority and uniformity, and that gay men were perpetually organizing such groups with the intention of seizing power…

Had Richard Plant stayed in Germany he would have been persecuted for being a Jew and a homosexual.
Summary
Richard Plant's book The Pink Triangle: The Nazi War Against Homosexuals is a comprehensive work that details the maltreatment of homosexuals under the hands of the men in the Third Reich. The book explores the rise in power of the Nazi party and the increase in sexual prejudices that came with them, the early twentieth century rise of a vigorous homosexual emancipation movement, the virulent homophobia that underlay the Nazi desire to annihilate Germany’s homosexuals, and the evolution of official Nazi policy toward them, including the recurring strategies for the degradation, imprisonment, enslavement, and extermination.

Richard Plant's book The Pink Triangle: The Nazi War Against Homosexuals is a comprehensive work that details the maltreatment of homosexuals under the hands of the men in the Third Reich. The book explores the rise in power of the Nazi party and the increase in sexual prejudices that came with them, the early twentieth century rise of a vigorous homosexual emancipation movement, the virulent homophobia that underlay the Nazi desire to annihilate Germany’s homosexuals, and the evolution of official Nazi policy toward them, including the recurring strategies for the degradation, imprisonment, enslavement, and extermination.

Homosexuals in Nazi Germany
by Warren Johansson and William A. Percy
Annual 7 Chapter 12 Part 1
Simon Wiesenthal Center Multimedia Learning Center
The homosexual victims of the Holocaust have not received due attention. The Nazi genocide of Jews and Gypsies, their murder of "asocials" and political prisoners, their persecution and murder of various other nationals not destined for total extermination -all have overshadowed their persecution and attempted liquidation of male homosexuals. Only now has a study of this neglected topic begun on the basis of the few surviving documents, interviews, and memoirs. The intolerance and criminalization that persisted after 1945, along with the shame and fear that the homosexual survivors and their families felt, prevented most homosexuals from testifying. In the immediate postwar period, many of those who wrote about the concentration camps, as well as the criminal courts and administrative tribunals that dealt with the crimes committed in the camps, treated homosexuals as common criminals, justly punished for violating the penal code of the Third Reich. Postwar historians of the Holocaust, especially those asserting the exclusivist view that the Holocaust was a historical experience unique to the Jewish people, have taken a similar position. Thus Lucy S. Dawidowicz, a leading exclusivist, has dismissed as not worthy of mention the "prostitutes, homosexuals, perverts, and common criminals" incarcerated by the Nazi…
…Ernst Rohm, a blatant homosexual surrounded by other homosexuals in the leadership of the brown-shirted SA storm troopers, had been one of the most powerful, radical, and brutal of Hitler's followers during the Nazi movement's rise to power; and Hitler did not turn against him and his associates until their plebeian radicalism had become inconvenient. On 30 June 1934 Hitler ordered the killing of the SA leaders in the so called Rohm purge.26 While the cause for this bloodletting was political, the widespread knowledge that the SA leadership consisted of virile homosexuals might have aggravated the rivalry between the SA on one side, and the SS and party bureaucracy on the other…
…Under the 1935 revisions of the penal code, prosecutions for homosexual activity grew enormously, but some of those convicted were not homosexual at all. The Nazis knew how to bring perjured testimony against political opponents; for example, they used false accusations of homosexual depravity against the Catholic clergy, especially against Franciscan friars…
…The Gestapo readily had recourse to the charge of homosexuality, if it was unable to find any other pretext for proceeding against Catholic priests or irksome critics. The mere suspicion was sufficient…

Why Bother About Homosexuals?
Homophobia and Sexual Politics in Nazi Germany
Geoffrey J. Giles
Why should the Nazis bother about homosexuals? After all, some of the most loyal supporters of the Nazi movement were homosexual, and Hitler refused to condemn the sexual preference of Ernst Röhm, even after it featured prominently in the opposition’s campaign against the Nazis in 1931.1 Tolerance for homosexuals had increased in Germany during the first three decades of the twentieth century to the extent that an open gay culture flourished in cities such as Berlin in the 1920s, and parliament seemed well on the way to abolishing §175, the clause of the penal code dealing with homosexual offenses.2 So why bother about them? First, because Nazi opposition to this emancipation sought to appeal to the conservative backlash that the Nazis wished to co-opt. In terms of immediate action when Hitler came to power, there were well-publicized closures of gay bars in big cities.3 But homosexuals were a somewhat elusive minority. Jews were a much easier target. They stated their religion on census forms, birth certificates, and other government records. Communists, the main target in 1933, could also be tracked down through their own party membership lists. Most homosexuals were relatively invisible….
The more the leadership convinced itself of the magnitude of a homosexual conspiracy, however, the greater the likelihood of drastic action. On the eve of World War II, there were fewer than a quarter-million Jews in Germany. In 1934 the police believed there to be at least two million homosexual men in the country. By 1939 the army’s chief psychiatrist was suggesting as many as three million, or four percent of the population. At the end of 1942 the figure of four million was being discussed. This was turning into a potentially huge problem, and it is hard to imagine that a demonstrably paranoid Nazi leadership would have dismissed this in the long run. The more serious the problem, the more likely it was to be met with what the Nazis generally referred to as a “radical solution,” which usually meant murder. Another major complication to any quick fix, however, was the fact that many apparently racially pure and ideologically sound National Socialists, and even officers of the elite SS, turned out to be homosexuals. That was sufficiently confusing to Himmler and others as to bring the blanket application of drastic persecution into question. In its search for imagined enemies, however, the Nazi leadership knew that the entrenched refusal to accept sexual otherness in broad sectors of German society provided a bedrock upon which to build a popular anti-homosexual campaign. The propaganda machine attempted to add credibility by portraying the average homosexual as fitting a “dirty old man” image, someone who principally targeted young teenage boys.6
Prejudice was vividly present inside the prisons and camps of Nazi Germany, too. Both gay and straight survivors have provided testimony that homosexual inmates of the concentration camps were treated worse than prisoners of any other category apart from the Jews, not only by the guards but by other inmates…

And it is these additional irrational unsubstantiated fabrications that the Nazi regime added to the societal antigay prejudges of Germany that these children who grew up gay during or in the aftermath of WWII - have internalized and have and continue to repeat, as adults, the same Nazi dehumanizing violence they experienced as children. However, these adult men who more than likely - are in a dissociated stated of mind happen to be the leadership of the Roman Catholic Church are repeating this same horrific violence of Hitler and the Nazi regime. The absence of any science on homosexuality is the glaring evidence that this is the case. They have internalized the Nazis arbitrary confabulations of societal antigay prejudices void of any science whatsoever, though, as Church leaders they, in their own absence of the science on homosexuality - erroneously them to be innate - coming from God!!!
Prejudice, Social Stress, and Mental Health in Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Populations: Conceptual Issues and Research Evidence
Psychol Bull. 2003 September ; 129(5): 674–697.
Ilan H. Meyer - Columbia University
Internalized homophobia
...Clinicians use the term internalized homophobia to refer to the internalization of societal antigay attitudes in lesbians and gay men (e.g., Malyon, 1981–1982). Meyer and Dean (1998) defined internalized homophobia as “the gay person’s direction of negative social attitudes toward the self, leading to a devaluation of the self and resultant internal conflicts and poor self-regard” (p. 161). After they accept their stigmatized sexual orientation, LGB people begin a process of coming out. Optimally, through this process they come to terms with their homosexuality and develop a healthy identity that incorporates their sexuality (Cass, 1979, 1984;Coleman, 1981–1982;Troiden, 1989). Internalized homophobia signifies the failure of the coming out process to ward off stigma and thoroughly overcome negative self-perceptions and attitudes (Morris et al., 2001). Although it is most acute early in the coming out process, it is unlikely that internalized homophobia completely abates even when the person has accepted his or her homosexuality. Because of the strength of early socialization experiences, and because of continued exposure to antigay attitudes, internalized homophobia remains an important factor in the gay person’s psychological adjustment throughout life. Gay people maintain varying degrees of residual antigay attitudes that are integrated into their self- perception that can lead to mental health problems (Cabaj, 1988;Hetrick & Martin, 1984;Malyon, 1981–1982;Nungesser, 1983). Gonsiorek (1988) called such residual internalized homophobia “covert,” and said, “Covert forms of internalized homophobia are the most common. Affected individuals appear to accept themselves, yet sabotage their own efforts in a variety of ways” (p. 117)… Read more: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2072932/pdf/nihms32623.pdf
As a group, they believe that they are deemed by God to rule the Church that they cannot make any mistakes - here lies the extreme global tragedy of the process known as groupthink:
Symptoms - G r o u p t h i n k
Groupthink is a psychological terminology used to describe the mode of thinking that persons engage in when concurrence-seeking becomes so dominant in a cohesive ingroup that it tends to override realistic appraisal of alternative courses of action. It refers to a deterioration in mental efficiency, reality testing and moral judgments as a result of group pressures.
The symptoms of groupthink arise when the members of decision-making groups become motivated to avoid being too harsh in their judgments of their leaders' or their colleagues' ideas. People would adopt a soft line of criticism and avoid conflict, even in their own thinking. At meetings, all members are amiable and seek complete concurrence, which is likely to be recognized erroneously as consensus, on every important issue.
The groupthink type of conformity tends to increase as group cohesiveness increases. Groupthink involves nondeliberate suppression of critical thoughts as a result of internalization of the group's norms. The more cohesive the group, the greater the inner compulsion on each individual to avoid creating disunity, which inclines him/her to believe in the soundness of whatever proposals are promoted by the leader or by a majority of the group's members. However, this is not to say that all cohesive groups necessarily suffer from groupthink. All ingroups may have a mild tendency toward groupthink, displaying from time to time one or another of eight interrelated symptoms…
The eight groupthink symptoms are:
Pressure: Victims of groupthink also apply direct pressure to any individual who momentarily expresses doubts about any of the group's shared illusions, or who questions the validity of the arguments supporting a policy alternative favored by the majority.
Self-censorship: Victims of groupthink avoid deviating from what appears to be group consensus. They keep silent about their misgivings and even minimize to themselves the importance of their doubts.
Unanimity: Victims of groupthink share an illusion of unanimity within the group concerning almost all judgments expressed by members who speak in favor of the majority view. When a group of persons who respect each other's opinions arrives at a unanimous view, each member is likely to feel that the belief must be true. This reliance on consensual validation within the group tends to replace individual critical thinking and reality testing.
Invulnerability: Most or all of the members of the ingroup share an illusion of invulnerability that provides for them some degree of reassurance about obvious dangers and leads them to become over-optimistic and willing to take extraordinary risks.
Invulnerability: Most or all of the members of the ingroup share an illusion of invulnerability that provides for them some degree of reassurance about obvious dangers and leads them to become over-optimistic and willing to take extraordinary risks.
Rationale: No only do victims of groupthink ignore warnings, but they collectively construct rationalizations in order to discount warnings and other forms of negative feedback that, taken seriously, might lead the group to reconsider their assumptions each time they recommit themselves to past decisions.
Morality: Victims of groupthink believe unquestioningly in the inherent morality of their ingroup. To the extreme end, this belief could incline the members to ignore the ethical or moral consequences of their decisions.
Stereotypes: Victims of groupthink hold stereotyped views of the leaders of "enemy groups," that "They are so evil that genuine attempts at negotiating differences with them are unwarranted," or that "They are too weak to too stupid to deal effectively with what ever attempts we makes to defeat their purposes." Organizations where competing groups co-exist should be cautious about this symptom because the damage of inter-group attack and/or mis-communications can counteract the totality of productivity of all groups.
Mindguards: Lastly, victims of groupthink sometimes appoint themselves as mindguards to protect the leader and fellow members from adverse information that might break the complacency they shared about the effectiveness and morality of past decisions.

The Eyes Have It: Sex and Sexual Orientation Differences in Pupil Dilation Patterns
August 3. 2012
…pupil dilation to stimuli indicates activation of the autonomic nervous system. This system is associated with many automatic processes such as perspiration, digestion, blood pressure, and heart rate. For this reason, pupil dilation has been used as indicator of automatic response, for example, in studies of implicit reaction and cognitive load. Other research suggests that pupil dilation can reflect automatic attention, or attention that is likely not in the conscious control of participants. It is therefore unlikely that participants suppress pupil dilation to stimuli they are sexually attracted to. Pupil dilation patterns could therefore reflect, with high sensitivity, automatic attention related to sexual attraction and sexual orientation… Photo
Repeating the excerpt from Henry Krystal:
…The failure to recognize one’s affects as part of one’s own information processing apparatus, tends to cause an individual to feel ruled by those emotions. Such people tend to build up their emotions to a very high intensity based on early experiences of using them to control the parental objects. Retaining such strategies in adult life may lead to a person behaving in an “out of control” fashion. Affect maturation and the development of affect tolerance during the latency period represents the most important single factor towards making possible the maturational developments in adolescence. Such achievements require the capacity to grieve effectively, making possible the renunciation of the infantile experience of the parents, and of oneself. A parallel process is the integration of the various self- representations derived from the several psychosexual developmental stages –which takes place in adolescence potentially achieving a consciously recognized wholeness of the self…

Caritas in veritate
Pope Benedict XVI 2009
Pope Francis is not locked up in past unrecognized feelings (affects), at least not with internalized societal antigay prejudices. He appears to be a courageous person - who readily faces the truth about himself and realizes that it is an ongoing process. He states that he is a sinner and that he is not a saint. However, he earnestly keeps working for the sake of others in the name of Christ. This is the light of hope that he continues by word and examples shares with us all. He is a man who has a strong belief in Christ - followed by a strong full commitment. He does not want to be idealized. Pope Francis, at the very start of his papacy, he asked for all of our help in making the necessary reforms, because he states he is very disorganized though his track record does not appear to confirm this self-assessment. Assessing his example of faith and service from a limited psychological perceptive is that he is able to apply the strength of his whole heart, soul and mind in the service of Jesus Christ. This the process of losing oneself that one fines oneself in Christ.
According the Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi(former head of the department of psychology at the University of Chicago and of the department of sociology and anthropology at Lake Forest College - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mihaly_Csikszentmihalyi) in his psychological research of the concept of FLOW - he made assessments of people in various occupations from around the the world. He discovered that people are happiest - when they are totally focused and absorbed in something greater than oneself. In brief - he explains that in those moments when they are in the center of this process giving their all - that they lose a sense of TIME - minutes can seem to pass like hours and hours can seem to pass like seconds, it can feel being depleted of everything - though afterwards feeling fulfilled, acquiring a significant sense of accomplishment and of being expanded, a broader experience of living and connection to others.

Flow, the secret to happiness: Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi asks, "What makes a life worth living?" Noting that money cannot make us happy, he looks to those who find pleasure and lasting satisfaction in activities that bring about a state of “flow.”
Components of flow
Csíkszentmihályi identifies the following ten factors as accompanying an experience of flow
1. Clear goals (expectations and rules are discernible and goals are attainable and align appropriately with one's skill set and abilities). Moreover, the challenge level and skill level should both be high.[5]
2. Concentrating, a high degree of concentration on a limited field of attention (a person engaged in the activity will have the opportunity to focus and to delve deeply into it).
3. A loss of the feeling of self-consciousness, the merging of action and awareness.
4. Distorted sense of time, one's subjective experience of time is altered.
5. Direct and immediate feedback (successes and failures in the course of the activity are apparent, so that behavior
can be adjusted as needed).
6. Balance between ability level and challenge (the activity is neither too easy nor too difficult).
7. A sense of personal control over the situation or activity.
8. The activity is intrinsically rewarding, so there is an effortlessness of action.
9. A lack of awareness of bodily needs (to the extent that one can reach a point of great hunger or fatigue without
realizing it)
10. Absorption into the activity, narrowing of the focus of awareness down to the activity itself, action awareness
merging.
Not all are needed for flow to be experienced.

Being a priest and a psychologist I am able to observe Mihaly Csiksgentmihalyi’s research from both perspectives, while maintaining the integrity of both - it is as if he did a psychological assessment of the two greatest commandments.
“Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?”
He said to him, ‘You shall love the Lord your God
with all your heart, and
with all your soul, and
with all your mind.
This is the greatest and first commandment.
And a second is like it:
‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”
Matthew 22:36-40
Mark 12:28-31
This is an excellent example of what Pope John Paul II states about science and religion cannot be separated without religion becoming science or science becoming religion (Fides et Ratio). These words of John Paul II are directly untwisting the pseudo-science and pseudo-religion of Nazism that was formulated by Hitler and the Nazi regime, that all began by their increased schizophrenic fabrications of the societal antigay prejudices of Germany that they exploited in March 1933 to “woo” over - the conservative votes, in the Reichstag, that he needed to become dictator of Nazi Germany. John Paul II is addressing the fallacy of the mental constructs that he experienced first hand that - led to “the most lethal and destructive war in history, and of the most terrible genocide the world has ever seen. He left behind him not just physical, but also moral, ruination such as history has never previously experienced. He represented an extreme pathology of modern society. He showed us the most radical face of modern inhumanity – how an advanced society can undergo a breathtaking descent into modern barbarity that’s quite without precedent (Ian Kershaw 2005).” It is no coincidence that John Paul II begins his encyclical Fides et Ratio with a fierce emphatic warning to “KNOW YOURSELF.” He then stresses that while respecting our individual autonomy and freedom as human being - the absolute truth summons us to be open the transcendent, at this point the relationship between freedom and truth is complete and we will fully understand the meaning of the verse from St. John’s Gospel “You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free (John 8:32).” It is a process of cleansing ourselves of delusional fabrications, such as believing that some unidentified feeling is innate in us indeed innate in all human beings - that this innate unidentified feeling is divinely inspired by God or some form of deity. Hitler began, a long with the Nazis, to innately believe that he had been chosen to restore the Germany people to being the master race, rulers of the world. This innate belief of Hitler’s is the foundation that the ideology of Nazism is built on. It also, appears that it was no coincidence that John Paul II had set up in the late 1980s - a group of scientists and theologians to begin the dialogue between science and religion on homosexuality that last until the death of John Paul, April 2005.
INTRODUCTION
- “KNOW YOURSELF”
1. In both East and West, we may trace a journey which has led humanity down the centuries to meet and engage truth more and more deeply. It is a journey which has unfolded—as it must—within the horizon of personal self-consciousness: the more human beings know reality and the world, the more they know themselves in their uniqueness, with the question of the meaning of things and of their very existence becoming ever more pressing. This is why all that is the object of our knowledge becomes a part of our life. The admonition Know yourself was carved on the temple portal at Delphi, as testimony to a basic truth to be adopted as a minimal norm by those who seek to set themselves apart from the rest of creation as “human beings”, that is as those who “know themselves”…
15. The truth of Christian Revelation, found in Jesus of Nazareth, enables all men and women to embrace the “mystery” of their own life. As absolute truth, it summons human beings to be open to the transcendent, whilst respecting both their autonomy as creatures and their freedom. At this point the relationship between freedom and truth is complete, and we understand the full meaning of the Lord's words: “You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free” (Jn 8:32).
Fides et Ratio
Individually, knowing the truth about oneself is the prerequisite where we begin to fully obeying the two greatest commandments. Through our being individually conscientious of this process - knowing ourselves we will avoid making God into our own individual image and likeness, instead of being transformed by God. To be open to being transformed by God that is being made into God’s image and likeness, involves the grain of wheat falling to the ground and dying that much fruit. It is the process through grace that all the pieces of truth begin to fall in place and it is the struggle that takes everything us to know the truth - it is this truth that will set us free. It is a never ending task, but the most fulfilling of all tasks.
Truly, truly, I say to you,
unless a grain of wheat falls
into the earth and dies,
it remains alone; but if it dies,
it bears much fruit.
He who loves his life loses it, and
he who hates his life in this world will
keep it to life eternal.
If anyone serves Me,
he must follow Me; and
where I am,
there My servant will be also;
if anyone serves Me,
the Father will honor him.
John 12: 23-26
The early childhood traumatic abuse of the forced suppression of child’s gay sexual orientation is the forcing a child to suppression the enduring emotional patterns of his sexual orientation that are not in his power or anyone’s power to control. This psychological enduring emotional pattern of sexual orientation, which is interrelated with the corresponding biological functioning of sexual arousal are both under the control of the autonomic nervous system. Like the heart beating and breathing - these interrelated components of sexual orientation function continuously and automatically outside of a person’s conscious awareness. A child is being forced out ignorance and fear of existing societal antigay prejudices, under the threat perceived by the child of being abandoned something - the child being force to suppress he has no concept of and that he has absolutely no control to suppress. The child will repressed and dissociated from the reality of having any feelings that are not yet fully developed. It is forcing the child into living a tortuous life style of forever trying to repress and dissociate from the continuous and automatic functioning of his gay sexual orientation that will absorb a considerable amount of his psychic energy. And as the child grows older having already Internalized the societal antigay prejudices and believing them to be innate, he will identify with them and becomes the aggressor forcing the same ignorance and fear on others. However, the person is being control by his sexual feelings, because he cannot permanently stop the continuous and automatic functioning of his gay sexual orientation and therefore he is not free to become an autonomous individual. As adult, he will be fill with chronic and endless guilt and shame - all over something he that is not his fault. It prevents him from developing into fully functioning human being free of addictive behaviors. This destructive annihilation of a human being will continue until this person is able to know the truth of who he is, identifying his unrecognized feelings of his gay sexual orientation. It is not only enough to recognized his gay sexual orientation - the person must loving accept his sexual orientation, as a gift from God and cherish it.
No, this is not easy. However, it is the journey of dying to self by knowing the truth about oneself that the person will experience - true freedom, like he never experienced before in his life.

A Forty-Year Retrospective

Henry Krystal, M.D., author of Integration & Self-Healing, Affect, Trauma, Alexithymia, 1988
Someone who is not gay or was raised in a social environment that was void of any societal antigay prejudices - is likely that this person will not be able to understand the severity of lifelong harmful effects that is caused to children who were raised in such antigay social environments. Nor would this person likely be able to effectively perceive the threat to humanity that is caused by the antigay social environments that forces children who are growing up gay to unnaturally suppress their gay sexual orientation. This person would not be able to perceive how this type of child abuse - depletes the world of the protective layers of empathy and prevents people from reaching their fullest potential that in empathy would likely be used in helping to make a world a better and safer place for all. Allowing societal antigay prejudices to continue unchallenged is allowing the systemic problem that created the threat of climate change to continue. The systemic problem is a profound though hidden disrespect for humanity - the absence of empathy shown to very young children. It is a disrespect for all of God’s creation, including the gay sexual orientation. Because the Vatican for generations has shown to have motivated this profound arbitrary discrimination, like Hitler and the Nazi regime, against a group people based on their gay sexual orientation. To arbitrary discriminate against a whole group of people not based on the dialogue between science and religion - is an example to the world that gives permission for the discrimination of any group based on arbitrary reasoning, mirroring the atrocities of Hitler and the Nazi regime.
The test of this vile hidden antigay destructive force that engulfs the Vatican and the majority of the members of the hierarchy around the world is as long as there is not one single open word is publicly mentioned that is supportive of the science on homosexuality or supportive of gay people - there is calm - there is peace, but it is all a false facade (a house built of cards) made into being an “innate" command of God. However, just the mere mentioning of the word "homosexual" will create a fierce emotional negative outburst of the terror of child. The terror of a child being forced to suppress his gay sexual orientation. This hysterical child like terror was most evident and was substantially documented - described as an earthquake, at the time of the release of the midterm report of the Synod on Family October 2014 that revealed the open discussion about considering how to be pastorally more welcoming of gay people and their families. The curia’s and hierarchy’s hysterical reaction at the mere mentioning of the word "homosexual" brings to mind Mel Brooks’s 1974 movie “Young Frankenstein” a comedy that every time the name “Frau Blucher” is mentioned in the movie - we immediately hear horses whinny, as if in terror, followed by a crack of thunder.
Curia & Hierarchy
Publicly Mention
“H o m o s e x u a l” Instant ->Hysteria
Publicly Mention
“C l i m a t e C h a n g e” NOT ->a Sound
In striking contrast to the curia’s and hierarchy’s instant hysterical reaction at the mere mentioning of the word “homosexual” - is their absolute silence - not even a whimper - to the mentioning of “Climate Change.” This vivid contrast speak volumes about the curia and hierarchy, in particularly validating the speculation that they are closeted gay prelates and the level of their mental capabilities or lack there of, to pass judgments. And what kind of public example are they setting for people to follow? The curia’s and hierarchy’s complete absence of the science on homosexuality for the pass 60 years - renders their judgments about gay people, in particular gay priests, are not based on truth and therefore are absence of LOVE! The curia’s and hierarchy’s judgments are based entirely on the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudges that they have internalized from early childhood years and have erroneously come to believe them to be innate coming from God! They adamantly refused to test the validity of these unchallenged innate beliefs - through the open dialogue between science and religion on homosexuality (St. John Paul II and Benedict XVI).
Homosexuality, according to the dialogue between science and religion, harms absolutely no one!!! “Climate Change” according to the dialogue between science and religion - is drastically harming and destroying people’s lives now, and threatening all our lives.
Strange that the headquarters of morality of the Roman Catholic Church, the curia and hierarchy go insane with hysteria at the mere mentioning of the word “homosexual,” matching and contributing to the societal antigay prejudges totally based on ignorance and fear.
What does this tell us about their ability to pass judgments? They have fully demonstrated their endless antigay obsession over the past 60 years. Their antigay obsession was brought on by their being forced to suppress their gay sexual orientation during their early childhood years growing up gay. Then in turn as adults, these closeted gay prelates, the curia and hierarchy force the same early childhood violence, the suppression of a child’s gay sexual orientation - on to children growing up gay, causing these children as adults, to exhibits the same array of antigay obsessions - the closeted gay acting out behaviors.

enormous price to human development…”

And yet the curia and hierarchy - oblivious - of their own closeted gay acting out behaviorally escapades - will pass immediate judgments condemning these closeted gay adult-children: (1) who had faithfully and earnestly tried to suppress their gay sexual orientation from their early childhood years - (2) not only to find they spend enormous amount of time attempting to suppress their gay sexual orientation and (3) failing continuously - in addition they have (4) acquired obsessive closeted gay acting out behaviors (not unlike those of the curia and hierarchy) and (5) they are filled never ending guilt and shame - having internalized the societal antigay prejudges, a situation of early childhood violence that never was their fault in the first place!!! Intrinsically disordered, who?!? They are still promoting the same societal antigay prejudices that opened the doors for Hitler to begin his foundation of human carnage of his unchallenged innate belief in the ideology of Nazism, unprecedented in human history. Again, as stated above, from Ian Kershaw:
Hitler's Place in History
Ian Kershaw - 2005
…How, then, should we look upon Hitler’s place in history? Primarily, as the inspiration of the most lethal and destructive war in history, and of the most terrible genocide the world has ever seen. He left behind him not just physical, but also moral, ruination such as history has never previously experienced. He represented an extreme pathology of modern society. He showed us the most radical face of modern inhumanity – how an advanced society can undergo a breathtaking descent into modern barbarity that’s quite without precedent...

What kind of example do these supposedly moral leaders of the Roman Catholic Church set for the world to follow??? And the world follows their example or rather the curia and hierarchy follows the world example. Why were these men ordained?!? Why haven’t they been laicized??? So, we continue to glorify this infantile stupidity??? It is a house built of cards - supported by hysterical antigay laypeople of the same ilk or controlled by such. Why???
The ignorance of homosexuality is a most effective hysterical smokescreen used by Hitler and the Nazi regime that gave Hitler the dictatorship of Nazi Germany. This hysterical smokescreen allowed the pseudo-science of the ideology of Nazism, also based on Hitler’s innate feelings about the German people decedents of the superiority of the Aryan race, to prosper and grow unchallenged that led to the deaths of 70 million people at the end of WWII 1945 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_policy_of_Nazi_Germany).
Pope Francis warns warmongers: the only fruit of war is death
02/11/2017
(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis celebrated the Feast of All Souls Day on Thursday commemorating all those who have died in war, reminding humanity not to forget past lessons and warning that the only fruit yielded by conflict is death...
Taking the occasion to reiterate his deep conviction that “wars produce nothing more than cemeteries and death” the Pope said he chose to visit a war cemetery as a sign “in a moment when our humanity seems not to have learned the lesson, or doesn't want to learn it.”...
“Please God – he prayed – everything is lost with war”
There are men today who are doing everything to declare war and step up conflict
“There are men, Francis said, who are doing everything to declare war and to enter into conflict. They end up destroying themselves and everything.”
Remarking on the fact that today is a day of hope, but also of tears, he said that the tears wept by those who have lost husbands, sons and friends at war should never be forgotten.
Humanity does not seem to want to learn the lesson...
Let us pray, he said, in a special way for all those young people caught up in conflict, “many of whom are dying every day in this piecemeal war”.
And he remembered the thousands of innocent children who are also paying the price of war.
“Let us ask the Lord, Pope Francis concluded, to give us the grace to weep”.
Every day this absolute silence among the curia and hierarchy refusing to maintain - the ongoing dialogue about the science and religion on homosexuality - allows the ignorance and fear of homosexuality to increase - to be exploited as an effective hysterical smokescreen as it was by Hitler and the Nazi regime - such as - to camouflage the harmful effects of “Climate Change” and the like. We can prevent this from happening again - by following the words of St. John Paul II and Benedict XVI.
Though “Frau Blucher” is a comical antic, gag, or joke in the movie - it is far from being comical when the curia and the hierarchy hysterical reaction to gay people - prevents the crucial ongoing open dialogue between the science
and religion on homosexuality to continue in full force - with the same intensity used in combating climate change. This silence allows the camouflage of this lethal infectious disease of the curia’s and hierarchy’s institutional internalized of Hitler’s and the Nazi regime’s increased schizophrenic fabrication of societal antigay prejudges, being passed off as the “innate” love of God - to incubate. It grows stronger in the darkness stalling not only the earnest attempts of combat climate change, but continues to destroy the increases of empathy in the world and thus deteriorating the moral fabric in the world, particularly because it is being incubated at the Vatican. It set an example to be followed and to be exploited for selfish globalization pursuits. All the above written about the individual facing the truth about oneself that is to know the truth and the truth shall set you free - applies to any organization - most especially to the headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church. What would be the devil’s prime target - to twist around the meaning of God’s love to reflect the exact opposite - the meaning of the devil’s hate.
Science +
+ Religion = Truth = L O V E
Caritas in veritate
Pope Benedict XVI 2009
It is the breach in the dialogue between science and religion on the sexual orientation of homosexuality that is the blame for this massive destruction of humanity that continues to destroy people lives. It is this most insidious form of structural violence that continues on subtly, unrecognized and is normalized regarded by many people as natural or “just the way things are (http://u.osu.edu/christie/files/2014/10/Chapter-10-Children-Structural-Violence-Schwebel-Christie-2jjgq7s.pdf).” Why does this antigay structural violence continue, because it is this form of child abuse that is inflicted on children in early childhood, at an age when the traumatizing effects will be forgotten. Though it will severely destroy the child’s lifetime, this same child as an adult will identified with the aggressive societal antigay prejudices and in inflict them onto other defenseless children. They are inflicted onto defenseless children in a repressed dissociated state of mind. The cruelties of this antigay structural violence on children are often subtle, unspoken, unrecognized, and even normalized, regarded by many people as natural or “just the way things are (http://u.osu.edu/christie/files/2014/10/Chapter-10-Children-Structural-Violence-Schwebel-Christie-2jjgq7s.pdf).” Allowing the truth about gay sexual orientation to be silenced: because of the antigay hysterical emotional reactions of the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy or because many these members are closeted gay prelates who are being blackmailed by outsiders for their past closeted gay sexual indiscretions (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/feb/21/pope-retired-amid-gay-bishop-blackmail-inquiry) - is to allow this form of structural violence to incubate tightly in the darkness of the global leadership of the Vatican. The focus suppression of a child gay sexual orientation - is all so twisted that it continues to needlessly hurt everyone, because someone (a group) cannot risk dying to self to find the truth. This collective collusion of silence of the curia and hierarchy - only increases and maintains the destructive power of these unsubstantiated societal antigay prejudices - waiting to be exploited again, and again for dehumanizing objectives. This foolish attempt to remove me - void of any substantiated grounds in the truth - regarding the complete absence of the science on homosexuality therefore the absence of dialogue between science and religion is an extreme act of violence against God’s ordained priest - one of the littler ones of who believes in him.
It is crucial to repeat this fact that - the cruelties of structural violence on children are often subtle, unspoken, unrecognized, and even normalized, regarded by many people as natural or “just the way things are (http://u.osu.edu/christie/files/2014/10/Chapter-10-Children-Structural-Violence-Schwebel-Christie-2jjgq7s.pdf).” What I am about to state is not meant to be used to pass judgment or in any way condemn anyone, but it presents an extreme example of this type of structural violence. To be able to understand depth and complexity of the following statement demands that it must be understood in its historical context with a working knowledge of child psychology and a theological background.

It is about Pope Benedict XVI, remembering the fact that the first 18 years of his life, being born 1927 very near the center of the beginning of the rise of Hitler and the Nazi regime to power. HIs father was a staunch devoted Catholic, who was fiercely anti-nazi. He was policeman who “served in both the Bavarian State Police (Landespolizei) and the German national Regular Police (Ordnungspolizei) before retiring in 1937 to the town of Traunstein.” His was "an anti-Nazi whose attempts to rein in Hitler's Brown Shirts forced the family to move several times.” The Brown Shirts were a military force under the leadership Ernst Röhm, who was an open homosexual.

Bishop David J. Walkowiak
Bishop of the Grand Rapids Diocese
360 Division Avenue S.,
Grand Rapids, MI 49503-4501
Dear Bishop David,
I received your letter dated October 2015, that included a request to set an appointment to dialogue with you. At the time, my commitments,obligations and lack of financial means did not permit me to follow through. Furthermore, the around trip from Canton, MI to Grand Rapids, MI would have been about eight hours. However, after seeking reliable spiritual direction I was advised to write a letter to accept your request to meet. In the process of writing this letter, I began to thoroughly research the situation, from the combined insight obtained from three professionals perspectives, as a priest, as a psychologist, and as a historian. Through these perspectives, I have analyzed the many ways in which I was a victim of antigay hierarchal violence, having no judicial oversight to appeal to for protection within the church or civilly. This is an unidentified form of structural violence directed not at me alone but also many priests, theologians, sisters, religious and others, including Pope Francis for the past four decades - all have been victims of this form of violence.
S t r u c t u r a l V i o l e n c e
Introduction
by Deborah Du Nann Winter and Dana C. Leighton
Peace, conflict, and violence: Peace psychology in the 21st century
…Direct violence is horrific, but its brutality usually gets our attention: we notice it, and often respond to it. Structural violence, however, is almost always invisible, embedded in ubiquitous social structures, normalized by stable institutions and regular experience. Structural violence occurs whenever people are disadvantaged by political, legal, economic, or cultural traditions. Because they are longstanding, structural inequities usually seem ordinary—the way things are and always have been. But structural violence produces suffering and death as often as direct violence does, though the damage is slower, more subtle, more common, and more difficult to repair. The chapters in this section teach us about some important but invisible forms of structural violence, and alert us to the powerful cultural mechanisms that create and maintain them over generations…
One outcome of exclusionary thinking is the belief that victims of violence must in some way deserve their plight. But certainly it is easy to see that young children do not deserve to be victims…
Section II: Winter, D. D., & Leighton, D. C. (2001). Structural violence. In D. J. Christie, R. V. Wagner, & D. D. Winter (Eds.), Peace, conflict, and violence: Peace psychology in the 21st century. New York: Prentice-Hall.
The main purpose of this form of structural violence is to silence and remove anyone in the Church who openly discusses the science on the sexual orientation of homosexuality - gay people. This antigay hierarchical, structural violence has been successful in firmly suppressing this science on homosexuality for the past 60 years. In 1957, world renowned psychologist, Dr. Evelyn Hooker conducted ground breaking research proving that homosexuality is not a mental illness. She proved that being homosexual was just as normal as being heterosexual. For years the hierarchical church has rebuked such scientifically sound findings and have championed the obsessive suppression of gay people. Such actions lead to question who benefits from falsifying truth? The hierarchical church did not suppress the scientific research on heart surgery or cancer for the past 60 years. This vicious form of gay suppression is entrenched in the corruption of the curia in which speaking the truth has become a reprehensible thing. Through my years of analysis, I have come to find that the greatest harm this suppression imposes is on our children.
Truly I tell you, unless you
change and become like little children,
you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this
child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
And whoever welcomes one such child in
my name welcomes me.
Matthew 18: 3-5
…whoever causes one of these
little ones
who believe in Me to stumble,
it would be better for him
to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck,
and to be drowned in the
depth of the sea.
Matthew 18:6
My “coming out” in March 1997 was all based on substantiated science and scripture. Furthermore, it was motivated to protect defenseless children. How did risking my life by coming out warrant such extreme vindictive retaliation for the past 20 years by members of the curia and hierarchy?
How did it get twisted around that I refused to return to the Grand Rapids Dioceses, when in fact, it was made clear to me that it was unsafe for me to return by their coercing me to acquiesce to being sent away to be re-educated on the science on the sexual orientation of homosexuality. They wanted me to leave the priesthood on my own, which would be another grave sin to commit. Since I had no recourse to appeal to for justice in 1997 - what recourse would I have available to me if I returned and more severe immoral tactics were used against me?
This tactic of the curia to dispose of someone was most recently demonstrated by Cardinal Raymond Burke firing Boeselager the Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Malta. Burke falsified a papal decision of Pope Francis that no one was to be fired, that the problematic issues with the Knights of Malta should be resolved through dialogue. Burke without any true dialogue with Boeselager stated that it was Pope Francis’s wish that he resign as the Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Malta. When Boeselager refused to resign because of “unreasonable circumstances,” Burke fired him on the grounds of disobedience. Sound familiar? Boeselager, then appealed directly to Pope Francis and an investigation was ordered into the firing of Boeselager. It was later exposed that the grounds that Burke had used against Boeselager were over “condoms.” However, this information was contrived by a group of Burke’s supporters known as “Lepanto Institute for the Restoration of All Things in Christ.” This group is described as a “militant traditionalist organization close to Burke (Austen Ivereigh).” “This ultraconservative organization specialized in the denunciation of "gays” entering the Church and in attacks on the major development associations that question unfettered economic liberalism (La Croix International).” On February 4, 2017, Pope Francis replaced Cardinal Burke as the Patron of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta and overnight all over Rome appeared posters of Pope Francis with a sad expression with the words - “Where is your mercy?”
It was the truth from science and religion that morally obligated me to come out for the protection of children growing up gay in March 1997. This was an act of love and my duty as a priest. It is the true meaning of being a priest. Pope Francis on Thursday, June 22, 2017 in his homily during Mass at Casa Santa Marta confirmed this fact stating,"The Good Shepherd gives his life for his sheep,” using as an example the parish priest of Barbiana, Fr. Don Milani, the from the Diocese of Firenze (Florence).
The research to find the answers to these questions endlessly kept unfolding more and more information that led back in time - more than a century and a half. The research doors were opened wide once Pope Francis was elected and he along with his team of experts, and cardinals began reforming the curia. The research revealed two main historical events that were dependent on exploiting societal prejudices against gay people to rise and to stay in power. The, first, began with the ideology of Nazism promoted by Hitler and the Nazi regime that led to the deaths of 70 million people unprecedented in human history. The, second, began the with ideology of the “trickle-down theory” known as Reaganomics that led to Globalization and the greatest inequality in human history - “A world where 1% of humanity controls as much wealth as the bottom 99% will never be stable (President Obama’s departing speech to the UN General Assembly September 2016).‟ Ian Kershaw explains what Hitler’s place in history will be:
…Primarily, as the inspiration of the most lethal and destructive war in history, and of the most terrible genocidethe world has ever seen. He left behind him not just physical, but also moral, ruination such as history has never previously experienced. He represented an extreme pathology of modern society. He showed us the most radical face of modern inhumanity – how an advanced society can undergo a breathtaking descent into modern barbarity that’s quite without precedent. That’s what, with the passage of time, we can see was historically defining about Hitler. Never before Hitler’s time had we seen so clearly what human beings are capable of…
…we shouldn’t mystify Hitler’s personality. The uniquenessof Nazism can’t be reduced to that strange personality. Another time, another place, and Hitler would have had no impact at all. He couldn’t have derailed a modern society without that society itself making a major contribution to its own fate… We shouldn’t be complacent about the future. New forms of fascism and racial intolerance rightly appal and worry us…
…what we can do is to remind ourselves of the essential point about Hitler: he represented the most fundamental and frontal assault ever launched on all that we associate with humanity and civilisation.
Excerpt from: - Hitler’s Place in History - Ian Kershaw
Professor of Modern History at Sheffield University
Lecture - Wednesday 27th April 2005
Over the past year and a half - I have been researching and writing 24/7, since I received your letter - gathering significant amounts of factual data on all three levels (as a priest, psychologist and historian). This research includes my personal experience of being a victim of the hierarchical, antigay violence. As it happens when I do research, such as it did when I was doing the qualitative research on the Holocaust in graduate school for psychology, it is only after thoroughly exhausting every possible avenue several times do all the pieces begin to fall into place like a jigsaw puzzle that a picture is formed.
The picture centers on the crucial importance for the safety and well-being of all of humanity present and on into the future and is dependent on maintaining an ongoing dialogue between science and religion. This is necessary to obtain truth that which then gives meaning and value to love. Without this truth formed through this process -
…Love becomes an empty shell, to be filled in an arbitrary way. In a culture without truth, this is the fatal risk facing love. It falls prey to contingent subjective emotions and opinions, the word “love” is abused and distorted,to the point where it comes to mean the opposite…
Benedict XVI - Caritas in Veritate 2007 2009
Pope Benedict XVI goes on to make the warning that “Any breach in this dialogue comes only at an enormous price to human development…” St. Pope John Paul II made an early statement to this effect explaining how science and religion cannot be separated. He explains - as Benedict does that science is the study of all of God’s creation and religion is formed from the bible, which is the inspired word of God. They both explain how the dialogue between science and religion becomes a self-correcting mechanism of oversight, preventing abuse and maintaining integrity of both science and religion - thus allowing science and religion to guide us on our journey into the future. Both John Paul II and Benedict XVI are writing from their experience having lived through the atrocities of Hitler and the Nazi regime (1933-1945) that resulted from their manipulation and abuse of science and religion to invent a pseudo-science to legitimize Hitler’s ideology of Nazism and pseudo-religious terms to promote it. They experienced living in a social environment saturated in the racial ideology of Nazism - where the meaning of love was so twisted around that in actuality love meant the opposite. Love meant exterminating people considered to be less than human or subhuman - “Life Unworthy Of Life.”
With the recent election of President Trump we are experiencing living in a similar social environment saturated with the ideology of the “trickle-down theory.” This led to Globalization that was also legitimized by the manipulation of science and religion that twisted the meaning of love around to mean the exact opposite. In addition to Mr. Trump’s behavior, the Republican Convention 2016 slogans, “Lock her up!” (that sounded like the palpable hysteria of the Nazi Party “Sieg Heil” chant at a Cathedral lit Nuremberg Rally of the 1930s) and his being elected US president are all blatant examples of love twisted to mean the opposite. Both the rise of Nazism and Globalization were depended on the exploitation of societal prejudices against gay people.
However, in regards to rise of the “trickle-down theory”of the 1980s that led to Globalization - the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy are responsible for the exploitation of societal prejudices against gay people. The research of Dr. Evelyn Hooker and subsequent research completely dispel prejudices against gay people. Instead of the curia and hierarchy acknowledging the truth of this science - they manipulated religion by misusing the bible and continued to wrongly condemn homosexuality. Thus they twisted the meaning of truth around to the point that it continues to mean the opposite. They and their supporters are not about truth and therefore not about love. They are no different than the palpable hysteria of the Nazi Party “Sieg Heil” members at the Nuremberg Rallies of the 1930s. And this is the violence, their twisted meaning of truth - the complete absence of love, they have used against me and against so many others before and after me. Some of our best and brightest theologians and bridge makers, such as, Sister Jeannine Gramick and Fr. Robert Nugent. Gramick and Nugent have been responsible since 1977 for saving millions of people’s lives, especially very young children. To the best of my knowledge, they were the first to begin an ongoing dialogue on the science of the sexual orientation of homosexuality - gay people and religion - scripture and theology.
S c i e n c e can purify religion from error and superstition;
R e l i g i o n can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes.
Each can draw the other into a wider world,
a world in which both can flourish.
For the truth of the matter is that the Church and the scientific
community will inevitably interact; their options
do not include isolation.
St. Pope John Paul II - 1988
I came out in March 1997: for the protection of children, as young as 4 and 5 years of age, who are growing up gay. Since then it has become a moral obligation to educate and prevent forced parental suppression and unsubstantiated antigay social and religious norms.What has bothered me ever since was the fact that I found it difficult to find the r o o t c a u s e in understanding “how” and “why” and “when” did the meaning of “love” and “truth” get so monumentally - twisted around; notably among the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy to mean the exact opposite.
For the past 10 years I have been writing in an effort to explain how this mindless inquisition that started almost immediately after coming out in June 1997 - of being coerced “behind closed doors” by a directive from the curia conveyed by the bishop for me to acquiesce to being sent away “somewhere” to be re-educated on the science on the sexual orientation of homosexuality. This directive was not only shocking, but traumatizing as well.
This irrational directive from the curia completely negated the immediate need of protecting the lives of millions of very young defenseless children from lifelong debilitating harmful effects. It also negated the wealth of the authoritative substantiated research gathered from the major medical and mental health associations, institutions, and organizations, including universities. This was the reason for my “coming out.”
Through knowledge acquired during my studies at the University of Michigan and attending the American Psychological Association National Conventions my research was reinforced on the science of sexual orientation. The action of the curia and hierarchy was a blatant affront, a direct attack on truth and love, as taught and embodied in Jesus Christ, of which the entire purpose and meaning of priesthood is based on. It was like a supervisor telling a heart surgeon that he is going to be be sent away on a sabbatical to be reeducated on the ancient system of medicine known as “bloodletting.” I cannot explain how twisted it sounded - to be told such absurdity!!! “Who in the hell is running this ship?!?” I was 47 years old at the time.
How did the curia and hierarchy cause a breach in the dialogue between science and religion that ended up twisting the meaning of love around to mean the opposite?
We will learn from studying the - science on sexual orientation that it is composed of interrelated biological and psychological processes that are not able to be consciously controlled or suppressed. These interrelated processes function outside our conscious awareness - automatically and continuously throughout life as part of the autonomic nervous system - like the heart beating and breathing. The continuous functioning of our sexual orientation - is essential in meeting our most basic human need for love, attachment, intimacy, through which empathy is developed. The continuous functioning of our sexual orientation is as vital to human survival from the beginning of life to the end - as the heart beating and breathing. Any attempt to force the suppression of a child’s gay sexual orientation is the same as suppressing the heart and breathing rate which can cause a number of lifelong adverse effects (persistent form of depression (dysthymia), suicidal ideation, and obsessive dislike for gay people that is implicit, to explicit verbal expressions of hate, to lethal forms of violence, and torture).
The majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy are European. They are the ones who grew up in the toxic antigay social environments left behind by Hitler’s Nazi regime. This begins to explain the long history of the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy’s collective obsessive antigay crusade. This collective thought suppressed all emerging science on homosexuality for the past 60 years. For these members of the curia and hierarchy the thought of gay science has been a long closed door slammed shut in their early childhood years. This was out of great fear from their witnessing the terror in the adult’s warnings of how Hitler treated priests who were found out to be homosexuals. As this trauma of the early childhood events are not remembered, only the emotional terror of the event remains. It is this emotional terror that is wronglymistaken as an innate guiding voice of their conscience strongly conveying to them that homosexuality is evil. This misunderstanding then becomes a force that completely obliterates years of scientific research on homosexuality. It is more likely that such scientific research ignites seemingly unending waves of unexplainable terror. That door slammed tightly shut - is the breach in the dialogue between science and religion on the issue of homosexuality. This is a childhood defense mechanism. It is the only means available to the child to stop the unending waves of fear. However, as adults, these childhood defenses must be reexamined in a safe environment - to be challenged in the adult dialogue between science and religion on issues of homosexuality. As Pope Benedict XVI explains, this is the only process to find truth and give real value and meaning to the understanding of love. I do not presume this to be an easy task to unravel and should only be attempted in a safe environment. However, this situation - is not unusual - it brings to mind the words of St. Paul to be understood with great care and empathy.
When I was a child, I talked like a child,
I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.
1 Corinthians 13:11
No, no, no this type of breach in the dialogue between science and religion on gay sexual orientation has to stop! Justice demands that I be exonerated and proper restitution be made for all harm endured, including the lost salary for the past 20 years to be made quickly. Not to follow through on this road of true justice is to continue this breach in the dialogue between science and religion on gay sexual orientation. Am I, like so many others, going to be made an example of what happens when a priest speaks aloud the truth? Will this be a situation reminiscent of Hitler’s regime to remove and silence Anti-Nazi priests? Are you going demonstrate publicly how an advanced society of people made a major contribution to the modern barbarity of Hitler and the Nazi regime by their complicity and indifference?
My moral obligation as a priest is to protect people, especially children.
I look forward to setting a time to dialogue the reality of this situation in the light of the warnings of both St. Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI while maintaining an open discussion between science and religion for the search of truth that leads to love.

The hierarchy and Pope Francis - vividly validated the reasoning for the immediacy - why I came out in March 1997, as pastor of Holy Family Parish, Sparta, Michigan - for the protection of gay children, as young as 4 and 5 years of age - from the lifelong harmful effects growing up gay or bisexual - during early childhood caused by the influence of anti-gay social and religious norms. These lifelong harmful effects can be clearly observed in the curia and hierarchy fierce homophobic behavior - their inability to form life-long meaningful and fulfilling relationships, including their inability to connect with others, their lack of empathy for others, their over concerns about outward appearance, status and careers, as noted in Pope Francis "Christmas address to the curia", December 22, 2014. It is not only their complete absence of maintaining any ongoing dialogue between science and religion on the topic homosexual sexual orientation for the past 60 years, which is directly against the words of Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI , it is also by their immediate emotional explosive outbursts to the 2014 midterm report of Synod session on Family - that listed notes of the open discussion that took place - discussing ways of how to be pastorally more welcoming to gay people and their families, including ways of valuing long term committed gay relationships. There was a lot of emotional outbursts among the curia and hierarchy, however, there is absolutely - no detail reasoning to substantiate their extraordinary hostile and aggressive reactions to the report. So intense was their fierce emotional reaction that the continuation of this open discussion on gay people scheduled for the second synod on Family session 2015 had to be canceled.
Sadly, one cannot, also, help to notice the enormous amount of the emotional psychic energy that is use by the curia and the hierarchy completely absorbed in an anti-gay obsession and the enormous amount of Pope Francis emotional psychic energy is used in reaching out to all people globally in nearly every situation in extraordinary effort to be inclusive of everyone, particularly those most forgotten and are in need of our help. Pope Francis has been relentless in this regard since his election to the papacy in March 2013.

NEWARK — The word “pilgrimage” usually evokes visions of far-off, exotic places, but for some 100 gay and lesbian Catholics and their families, a pilgrimage to the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart here on a recent Sunday was more like a homecoming...

Dear Fr. Geoff Farrow,
I have been so saddened by Pope Benedict XVI's cruel words to LGBTQ people around the world, to their parents, families and friends, most ESPECIALLY TO CHILDREN. After reading the accounts of this human travesty, I did not know where to find comfort or hope. And then I thought about your blog. And just like receiving a wonderful Christmas present, sure enough I found the hope and comfort I needed to hear. Photo
I am a priest and a clinical psychologist (MS). And for one of my research projects I chose to do a qualitative research project of the recorded verbal accounts of survivors of the Holocaust, 50 years after the event. It was a difficult research project, because I could not make sense of one of the accounts of the survivors.
For example, one survivor was describing what it was like riding the train to AUSCHWITZ, but he was describing how he was trying to make conversation with a girl on the train. I listened and wrote out this one account almost 30 times but I just was not getting it. I could not understand how this man could be talking about wanting to make conversation with this girl on the same train to AUSCHWITZ!?!
Because I had taught high school religion classes for nearly 20 years, it hit me hard, like a flash of lightning. Instantly, all the pieces came together, so fast. Though this survivor was in his late 60’s when he gave his account of his story on audiotape, he was remembering the events that took place, but naturally they were recounted through the mind of a teenager, the age he was on the train to AUSCHWITZ. That is why the dialogue wasn’t making any sense. I was thinking of him as an old man because the voice on the audiotape was the voice of a 68-year-old. As shocking as a bomb going off, all the different aspects of the psychological developmental stages of a teenager kicked in. I realized only too fully that he was just a young normal teenager on that train!!! And so was the girl he was trying to make conversation, and their moms and dads were there with them!!! There was no way to pretend I did not realize what I discovered. It kept hitting me: this is not some script from a movie or TV miniseries on the Holocaust. No; as much as I wished it were. The reality of this horror hit me all at once, on so many different levels of consciousness: what an unbelievable horror it was!!! How could we treat human beings like this! I remember when the realization of the magnitude of this horror first hit me, like an instant reflex. I threw down the transcript I was holding as if it were a blazing hot poker. It kept hitting me over and over again that this is not a movie script or some kind of play – this really happened! It really happened! Oh, my God, how could this have happened!?!!!
My supervisor told me at the time that I was traumatized by the oral content. Qualitative research is an attempt to understand the complexity of emotions, the kinds of emotions, and the degree of intensity involved. Our emotions are what allow us to connect with other human beings. We identify with the non-verbal quality of emotions more immediately and strongly than with the words used to express them. The non-verbal qualities include tone of voice, eye contact, facial expression, body posture, and gestures, all of which express emotions. Emotions are why we can connect with people through time, across cultures, and individually. It is the expression of human emotions in the arts that makes some works of art timeless, because they continually speak to all people through the ages.
And when I heard what Pope Benedict XVI said about homosexuals and transgendered human beings at Christmas 2008, I felt that same trauma all over again. Because in some way, somehow, he was conveying in a non-verbal manner the horror of the Holocaust, in what appears to be a traumatized, trance-like, accepted social norm from that period of time dictating that some people just don’t count, aren’t important, and can be easily disposed of. And if you rock the boat, you could be next to be disposed of.
I truly have to believe that a person in his position would not be doing this consciously or intentionally. The horror of the Holocaust is like an atomic bomb with fallout so extensive that it spreads over a radius of more than 150 miles. The horror of the Holocaust began in 1933 and ended in 1945. The psychological fallout would have been far more extensive and more deadly, especially when it is notidentified as such.
It hit me the way it did when I realized that the research I was doing about a Holocaust survivor, a man 68 years old telling his story, who was remembering what it was like to be on the train to AUSCHWITZ, from the perspective of a young teenage boy who just wanted to talk to a girl. It seemed like the same kind of horror, a tacit assumption that some people don't count and can be disposed of without remorse. Could it be that Benedict XVI is unconsciously repeating Hitler's crime against humanity by taking on a long-accepted social attitude from that period of time?
The question I asked myself was: what would it have been like for someone growing up gay during the Nazi Persecution of Homosexuals 1933 -1945?
What would be the severity of the psychological effects on a boy who grew up to be gay in Germany during the time of Hitler’s NAZI PERSECUTION OF HOMOSEXUALS 1933 -1945? During the Nazi regime, homosexuals were publicly defamed and falsely accused for the major social problems of that time, which was done to incite massive public hatred and hostility directed against homosexuals. Homosexuals were used for medical experiments, physically mutilated, brutally tortured and exterminated.
Would this child, as an adult, in a severe dissociated state of mind from his own homosexual feelings (Harry Stack Sullivan MD, Dissociative Processes, Clinical Studies on Psychiatry (1956)), unconsciously perpetuate the terrifying horror of the insensitivity he had experienced growing up? If he found himself in a position of authority would he recreate the same social and political environment of violence and terror for homosexuals that he experienced, as a child who grew up to be gay, during the NAZI PERSECUTION OF HOMOSEXUALS?
I think in truth on a much deeper level I was frightened, really frightened, to hear Pope Benedict XVI’s Christmas remarks against homosexuals and transgendered human beings and even more frightened by the silence from the larger global community of human beings. What is so frightening is, even if there is agreement that one person does not matter or is not important, in truth then no one matters. Therefore, when I thought about your blog and what you did on October 5, 2008, I felt more reassured, I felt hope, and I felt comforted. NOW, isn’t that the true meaning of Christmas?
God Bless you,
Fr. Marty Kurylowicz
