BLACKMAILING
Whom???
WHY? and How?
The Answer - Follow The MONEY!
The truth of the entrenched corruption flowing in and out from the leadership curia members of the Vatican continues to evolve gradually exposing the complexity of the layers of those involved. There clearly appears to be several different levels of entrenched corruption, some existing much longer than others. What is unclear is a lot: i.e. the exact nature, composition, structure, etc., how extensive and lethally threatening they are, the if and how they may be interrelated, and much more. Pope Francis has been the catalyst that has evoked a substantial amount of disruption of this long established flow of corruption for more than the past 30 years. His disruptions are like bright flashes of lightning that briefly expose the depth of the complexity of age old twisted structural layers of this corruption. He appears, over the past 5 years, not to be intimidated, or coerced by the routine threats from the outside and to acquiesce to their demands. The dominant controlling force of this corruption, at this time in history, appears to be the blackmailing of repressed and closeted homosexual prelates and staffers of the curia. For now, this time in history, it appears to be the glue that fuels and holds the corruption together, however, it cannot be the only glue. Pope Francis has been a startling lightning jolt to those involved in the corruption, forcing them to attempt to reroute their lines of corruption, though, at times unsuccessfully that has resulted in those involved in this corruption to increase their efforts to publicly discredit him. In their efforts to fanatically re-established control they have exposed (1) their existence behind the scenes and (2) their means to achieve their (3) objectives.
The Pope faces his adversaries
January 26, 2017
...In the United States, such talk which challenges the foundations of American free enterprise goes down badly. Francis has been described as a "Marxist" pope. His encyclical Laudato struck also against the discourse of climate change denial pushed by the petroleum giants.
Currently, the most severe attacks against the pope are coming from the United States. At the Order of Malta, the case of the Burmese condoms was put forward by the "Lepanto Institute for the restoration of all things in Christ".
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… Read more: https://international.la-croix.com/news/the-pope-faces-his-adversaries/4565
The exposure of this form of entrenched corruption began to evolve, for me, from this one single question that kept annoying me ever since I came out, over 20 years ago, in March 1997 - how come the men at the Vatican were not aware of the science and scripture on homosexuality? How could the science on homosexuality that is accepted by all the major medical and mental health associations and organizations around the world stating that homosexuality is a normal and positive variation of human sexuality and that attempts, depending on the type and the level of severity, to change or repress a child’s gay sexual orientation has caused lifelong harmful and dangerous effects to the safety and well-being of the child - (A) how could this vital information not even be in the radar range of understanding of the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy??? This situation has continued to remain the same even to the present day. What has been exposed after the election of Pope Francis to the papacy March 2013 - (B) is that there has been and continues to be an extraordinary fierce and vindictive covert antigay hostility coming from both within and outside of the Vatican to maintained the status quo of this situation that is the complete suppression of the science on homosexuality. Why does this severe antigay hostility exists to destroy truth and therefore love? In part, (1) it appears to exist because the majority of the members of the hierarchy and the curia are repressed homosexuals, and who appear then (2) to have been exploited, by means of blackmail threats due to their strong homophobic fears of being exposed as homosexuals - by people of organizations outside of the Vatican.
It is interesting to note that at the time in March 1997 after “coming out” that the same paralyzing closeted/repressed homosexual fear of being exposed as a homosexual that the curia tried to induce in me (projective identification), as an attempt to coerce me into acquiescing to their demands that I agree to be sent away for months to be re-educated on the subject of gay sexual orientation - is the same paralyzing fear that remains pervasive, 20 years later, throughout the members of the curia and hierarchy that has filtered down to the priests, at the grassroots of the Church. A simple testing of this realty - can be accomplished by asking questions about the science on gay sexual orientation and observe their responses, whether they are knowledgeable in answering with ease or with quick antigay condemnation and projection, including how at ease are they able to talk about their own sexuality or sexuality in general. Are they open to dialogue about gay sexuality or not? When discussing questions about gay adult pornography - do they erroneously equate it with child pornography, which there is absolutely no connection between the two? Their reluctance to enter into any dialogue on gay sexual orientation would tend to be immediate - likely an explosive emotional reaction not to dialogue and surprisingly without any credible rationale given (Bessel van der Kolk, MD).
It is this ignorance of the science on homosexuality at the grassroots level of the Church that antigay prejudices are sustained and then arise to eventually to be added to the a US national party's platform that have been exploited as a successful political wedge - ushering people for selfish gain - into powerful elected offices. This bottom-up process is how social revolution begins, according to the research of Columbia University and the University of Rochester:

The lifelong cost of burying our traumatic experiences
The trauma caused by childhood neglect, sexual or domestic abuse and war wreaks havoc in our bodies, says
Bessel van der Kolk in The Body Keeps the Score
Brain, Mind, and Body in The Healing of Trauma with Bessel van der Kolk MD
…my group and I did the very first neuroimaging study on people having flashbacks. That turned out to be a very interesting study. We discovered that when people relive their trauma, a fair amount of their brain actually goes offline, particularly in the left anterior prefrontal cortex where the capacity for analyzing, understanding, and language is located. So, essentially we were able to visualize how people become dumbfounded...
...and struck with speechless terror. That is a very big issue. The other thing we discovered or confirmed was that when people relive their trauma, their survival brain, their emotional brain, becomes very activated, and their frontal lobes, their more rational brain, gets deactivated, so that people sort of “take leave of their senses” in some ways—so that people’s cognitions fail them. We learned that the insula, the part of the brain that’s involved in registering and noting what is going on in your body, becomes impaired, so there’s a decreased body–mind connection that needs to be reactivated. Various people have discovered that the medial prefrontal cortex—the part of the brain that allows you to feel yourself, notice yourself and be in touch with yourself—gets quite thrown off track, basically, so that it is really hard to notice what goes on inside of you and to manage what goes on inside of you… Read more: http://www.shrinkrapradio.com/436.pdf
Origins of the Culture War:
Social Issues in State Party Platforms, 1960-2014
…Our focus in this paper is on the politics of abortion and gay rights. We test the proposition that–by the time national parties and elites took positions on social issues–the parties were already constrained by state-level position-taking, that the origins of social issues in the states came earlier than in national platforms, and that the Democratic party initiated this process. Drawing on a massive new dataset, drawn from over 600 state political party platforms between 1960 and 2014, most of them newly discovered, we argue that the groundwork for this partisan divide was not laid by presidential candidates or national parties. Rather, it was the product of years of fermentation at the state level. It was a bottom-up social revolution.
…In general, the respective Democratic and Republican positions on the quintessential culture war issues of abortion and homosexuality were staked out not in a dramatic, critical moment led by the national parties, but instead by a steady percolation at the state-level, which in turn constrained the policy choices available to the national parties…
This, of course, does not include all the bishops and priests, even though, this number is extremely small. This is because very few are able to openly identify as being gay, or even privately among their friends or just to themselves that is admitting and accepting of the fact that they regularly experience being sexually attracted to, even feeling sexually arousal by members of the same-sex without feeling overwhelmed by shame and guilt. They are not controlled by their sexual feelings, they do not dominant their lives, the same as it is for a heterosexual person. It is only the repressed homosexuals, especially the severely repressed - who become forever obsessively absorbed in attempting to deny - to dissociated from their regularly experiencing being sexually attracted to, feeling physically sexually arousal to members of the same-sex. This repressed homosexual behavior leads to any number of mental disorders and to acting out sexually in ways that are risky and dangerous. Though it is clear that this repressed homosexual behavior is the foundation that the majority of the members of the curia and the hierarchy have built to arbitrarily be the moral edifice of the church - that will fall (is falling) like a House of Cards - due to the absence of science on homosexuality - because it was not built on TRUTH! And without truth there is no love. Who is mentally healthier the "Out" Gay Athletes or the ”Repressed Homosexuals” of the Curia & Hierarchy? We will know by the love that they have for one another. “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:34-35
August 2013
…“The dogmatic and moral teachings of the church are not all equivalent. The church’s pastoral ministry cannot be obsessed with the transmission of a disjointed multitude of doctrines to be imposed insistently. Proclamation in a missionary style focuses on the essentials, on the necessary things: this is also what fascinates and attracts more, what makes the heart burn, as it did for the disciples at Emmaus. We have to find a new balance; otherwise even the moral edifice of the church is likely to fall like a house of cards, losing the freshness and fragrance of the Gospel. The proposal of the Gospel must be more simple, profound, radiant. It is from this proposition that the moral consequences then flow…
The "Out" Gay Athletes of the 2018 Winter Olympics are in love and winning gold and bronze metals. Whereas the ”Repressed Homosexuals” of the Curia & Hierarchy are not in love with anyone, including themselves and are obsessively, though, secretly acting out sexually or crusading against gay people, especially gay men. One need not look far for credible documentation to support these facts about the continuous closeted behavior of the ”Repressed Homosexuals” of the Curia & Hierarchy. The documentation is indisputable overwhelming in this regard, thus proving that their fanatical stance against homosexuality is not built on truth, due to their absence of the science on homosexuality. In addition, it has been exploited as a dangerous life-threatening political wedge that has open the doors to the human destructive behavior of globalization, which includes the effects of “Climate Change” - as described by Pope Benedict XVI in his encyclical Caritas in veritate 2009.
Now, ask the questions as to - who is “intrinsically disordered” and who has “deep seated homosexual tendencies” and which group is responsible for the “destruction of humanity”? It is certainly is notthe "Out" Gay Athletes of the 2018 Winter Olympics - who are in love and winning gold and bronze metals. Consider the enormous risk that these "Out" Gay Athletes of the 2018 Winter Olympics took by making internationally public their gay sexual orientation - is this not close to the meaning of the words of Christ that I freely lay down my life, so others may live? And is this not what identifies them as true disciples of Christ by the way they love one another and indeed all of humanity?

Excerpts:
…ROBERT MICKENS, Vatican Correspondent, The Tablet: I came here when I was a seminarian in 1986. And I remember I had this very wide-eyed idea of the Vatican, of these holy cardinals and holy men. And I was shocked within a matter of weeks, months, at the careerism, at the sexual innuendo, the— just the whole kind of non-holy life I hadn't expected.
VATICAN GUIDE: [through interpreter] A large part of the hierarchy is homosexual. Certainly, at the top levels of the church, in the Curia, and many important people, such as bishops and archbishops, are gay.
NARRATOR: He's a Vatican guide who says he's had relationships with several priests.
VATICAN GUIDE: [through interpreter] Here in Rome, it's very easy to meet a gay priest, on a bus, in a church, and important churches like St. Peter's. It's even easier when you go to gay clubs and gay bars. You see them in the bars, and then at the altar the following Sunday… Read more:
The repressed homosexual behavior, which is predominant (as detailed in: Part 4D - NAZI ABUSE OF SCIENCE -> GENOCIDE “RACIAL CLEANSING” & WAR CHILDHOOD -> CURIA - GENOCIDE of HOMOSEXUALS http://fathermartykurylowicz.blogspot.hk/2018/01/part-4d-homosexuality-if-it-is-not_9.html) among the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy clearly has played a significant part in enabling the entrenched corruption for the past three decades. The biggest fear of repressed (closeted) homosexuals is the fear of exposure that is being exposed as being gay. It is difficult for us who have grown up gay the United States, well after the WWII to even imagine the degree of intensity of this fear, - to be exposed as being gay in Nazi Germany, because it meant being sent to prison and the possibility of unbelievable brutal torture. This would be the most inhuman form of suppression of a child's gay sexual orientation.
Had we grown up gay in Nazi Germany during our early childhood years we would have experienced the inhuman severity of the Nazi social environment: - where the endless propaganda staged against homosexuals, like the Jewish people, was that they posed a dangerous threat to the survival of the German people. It was a time, where anyone could be accused of being homosexual by a neighbor, or enemy without evidence, or any innocent gesture of friendship observed in public - was enough to send someone to the concentration camp. The heinous intensity of this forced suppression of a child's gay sexual orientation, as adults, would have greatly increased, at the peril of our lives, our constant unconscious repression of even the slightest connection of being gay to break through the surface of our conscious minds. In a state of fright, it would have been unconsciously etched in our minds from early childhood years that to be exposed as a homosexuals meant to be fiercely despises by everyone and that at any time without warning, we would face an immediate and brutal death.

It takes a tremendous amount of mental energy to constantly keep all and any thoughts, feelings, or sexual arousal repressed. This would include avoiding any same sex friendships and or relationships from developing, especially if the repressed homosexual - feels the slightest sexual arousal. ”It becomes a never-ending self-torturous life style ( Henry Krystal, M.D. http://www.ibrarian.net/navon/paper/Chapter_8__Psychoanalytic_Approaches_to_Trauma__A.pdf?paperid=16436404).”
It is impossible to repress any type of sexual orientation, gay, straight or bisexual, because a person’s sexual orientation functions continuously 24/7 outside conscious awareness - as it is under the control of the autonomic nervous system.
Even though every aspect of being gay is repressed out of a person’s conscious awareness - the continuous functioning of a person's gay sexual orientation is acted out in ways that are disguised to the person, however, they are observable to others. The majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy comprise a homogeneous population of repressed homosexuals. Their acting out behaviors are observable in almost perfect unison - as a group of synchronized swimmers. Their obsessive antigay crusade to silence and remove any and all open discussions on the science on homosexuality - is an outward expression of their unconscious repression to keep anything homosexual out of their conscious awareness treated as "unwanted emotions." The same is true about their adamant insistence “that men with ‘deeply rooted homosexual tendencies’ shouldn’t be admitted into Catholic seminaries and, therefore, shouldn’t become Catholic priests (https://cruxnow.com/global-church/2016/12/07/vatican-reiterates-homosexuals-shouldnt-priests/).” Because the term “deeply rooted homosexual tendencies” is undefined by any medical or mental health associations nor is defined in the scriptures - therefore it is a concoction formulated in the repressed homosexual’s minds. It is a projection of the laborious constant activity of repressed homosexuals. They are the ones who experience their unconscious inability to completely repressed their own “deeply rooted homosexual tendencies.” Over the past 30 years, they have recruited repressed homosexuals to filled the priesthood and becoming members of the curia and hierarchy. This is how the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy came to the homogeneous population of repressed homosexuals. The outside exploitation of repressed homosexuals prelates that fill the curia and the hierarchy by blackmail became as easy as “shooting fish in a barrel.” And it is these repressed homosexuals prelates who are have slow down Pope Francis efforts to reform the curia.

Processes of Sexual Orientation
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

…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…
REPRESSION, PROJECTION - Definitions
Projection:
Scapegoating. Cutting off what the super-ego perceives as "bad" aspects of oneself (e.g. weakness or homosexual desire) and projecting them onto someone else "over there" where they can be condemned, punished, etc..
Projection:
This involves individuals attributing their own thoughts, feeling, and motives to another person (A. Freud, 1936). Thoughts most commonly projected onto another are the ones that would cause guilt such as aggressive and sexual fantasies or thoughts.
For instance, you might hate someone, but your superego tells you that such hatred is unacceptable. You can 'solve' the problem by believing that they hate you.
Psychoanalytic Terms & Concepts Defined
American Psychoanalytic Association
Defense Mechanisms
Defense mechanisms are used by the ego as a way to deal with conflict of problems in life. Operating at an unconscious level, defense mechanisms help to reduce negative feelings (e.g. anxiety and guilt). Common defense mechanisms include repression, denial, and projection.
Transference
Transference is the projection onto another person (e.g., the analyst) of feelings, past associations, or experiences. This is an important concept in psychoanalysis because it demonstrates that past experiences impact the present. Interpreting transference in the psychoanalytic setting can shed light on unresolved conflicts.
Repression
Repression is a defensive process where an individual’s impulses and instinctual desires are blocked from entering one’s conscious. Regarded by Freud as the cornerstone of defense mechanisms, the process of repression involves unconsciously censoring ideas or memories deemed unacceptable.

THE PERSECUTION OF HOMOSEXUALS IN NAZI GERMANY
…Unlike ethnicity, homosexuality is not a characteristic immediately obvious to an observer, and therefore the Gestapo and other Nazi agencies frequently relied upon denunciations received from informers who often possessed a personal grudge against the accused person;…Such summary justice was enabled by changes to Germany’s penal code in 1935 that broadened the scope of Paragraph 175 to facilitate the indictment of as many suspected homosexuals as possible. Previously, the courts had required a relatively high burden of proof: only observed anal intercourse between men was considered a violation of the statute. After the Nazi revision, however, “very minor sexual intimacies were landing men in concentration camps...In fact, in some cases it was, as a legal commentator of 1944 put it, ‘not necessary that a physical contact has taken place or is even just intended...

Persecution of Homosexuals
…It should be noted that Nazi authorities sometimes used the charge of homosexuality to discredit and undermine their political opponents. Charges of homosexuality among the SA (Storm trooper) leadership figured prominently among justifications for the bloody purge of SA chief Ernst Röhm in June 1934. Nazi leader Hermann Göring used trumped-up accusations of homosexual improprieties to unseat army supreme commander Von Fritsch, an opponent of Hitler's military policy, in early 1938. Finally, a 1935 propaganda campaign and two show trials in 1936 and 1937 alleging rampant homosexuality in the priesthood, attempted to undercut the power of the Roman Catholic Church in Germany, an institution which many Nazi officials considered their most powerful potential enemy…

A child’s gay sexual orientation would most likely have been severely suppressed growing up gay in the social environment of Nazi Germany, when the Nazis exploited, the social prejudices against homosexuals - to use as a smokescreen - to avoid public outrage as a means to publicly justify their silencing and removing anyone who posed a threat the implementation of the ideology of nazism set forth in their policies to achieve racial purity.
"Following the Nazi seizure of power in 1933, Hitler established a Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda headed by Joseph Goebbels. The Ministry's aim was to ensure that the Nazi message was successfully communicated through art, music, theater, films, books, radio, educational materials, and the press (https://www.ushmm.org/wlc/en/article.php?ModuleId=10005202)."
Goebbels orchestrated - highly publicized propaganda tactics of "trumped-up accusations of homosexual improprieties" beginning - in June 1934 to justify the massacre of many of Hitler's opponents, especially Ernst Röhm the leader of SA (Storm trooper) and discredit the SA. Photo

Word for Word/The Case Against the Nazis; How Hitler's Forces Planned To Destroy German Christianity
By Joe Sharkey - January 13, 2002
By Joe Sharkey - January 13, 2002
…In July 1933, a Concordat was signed between the Reich and the Holy See (http://www.americamagazine.org/issue/448/article/vatican-concordat-hitlers-reich).
’’For the first time since the Middle Ages, the Reich itself had entered into an agreement with the Roman Catholic Church,'' the outline says. ''Moreover, the new treaty was apparently entirely to the advantage of the church. In return for the retreat of German Catholicism from the political scene, the church was guaranteed, by international treaty, freedom for Catholic organizations [and] maintenance of denominational schools and youth education.''
…The Concordat was hailed by church and state authorities as marking the beginning of a close and fruitful collaboration.''
Of course, the churches stayed in Hitler's good graces for only as long as the Nazis considered their cooperation expedient. Soon after Hitler assumed dictatorial powers, ''relations between the Nazi state and the church became progressively worse,'' the outline says. The Nazis ''took advantage of their subsequently increasing strength to violate every one of the Concordat's provisions.''
In 1937, Pope Pius XI denounced Nazi treachery in an encyclical [Mit brennender Sorge] that accused Hitler of ''a war of extermination'' against the church. The battle had been joined on some fronts. Nazi street mobs, often in the company of the Gestapo, routinely stormed offices in Protestant and Catholic churches where clergymen were seen as lax in their support of the regime.
…Still, in a society where the entire Jewish population was being automatically condemned without public protest, care was taken to manipulate public perceptions about clergymen who fell into Nazi disfavor. ''The Catholic Church need not imagine that we are going to create martyrs,'' Robert Wagner, the Nazi Gauleiter of Baden, said in a speech, according to the O.S.S. study. ''We shall not give the church that satisfaction. She shall have not martyrs, but criminals.'' …

…In July 1933 Pope Pius XI shocked the democratic world by signing a concordat with Hitler, which was very favorable to the rights of the Catholic churches in the German states. The Nazis had no intention of keeping this agreement and gradually moved towards outright repression [of the Catholic Church]; they staged prosecutions of monks for homosexuality, with the maximum of publicity. In 1937 Pius issued an encyclical, Mit brennender Sorge (‘With burning anxiety’), which he listed all the breaches of the concordat [of July 1933] committed by the Germans. The encyclical was smuggled into Germany and read from the pulpits on Palm Sunday. It made the repression far worst…

Chicago Daily Tribune: Saturday, May 29, 1937 http://archives.chicagotribune.com/1937/05/29/page/3/article/nazis-unleash-vicious-attack-on-roman-catholic-church
The reaction of a gay child to this type of extremely forced suppression would be to fiercely repressed - dissociated from the child’s internalization of these societal antigay prejudices of Nazi Germany including the Nazi twisted pseudo-science to claimed scientific legitimacy for their policy of racial purity to become the Aryan master race. It would be the internalization of this twisted understanding that homosexuals like the Jewish people were - not really human - they were subhumans on the level of a disease-carrying rats. The implication that follows from this arbitrary classification is that homosexuals are "'Less Than Human': The Psychology Of Cruelty (https://www.npr.org/2011/03/29/134956180/criminals-see-their-victims-as-less-than-human)" that it is wrong to kill a human being, but it is not wrong to kill a rat. Aspects of this internalization of the Nazi treatment and conception of homosexual would be reenacted throughout the child’s adulthood years. Any threat of exposure to this gay child’s repression of his sexual orientation, as an adult would be a traumatic flashback - to his early childhood years experience of the Nazis understanding and public treatment of homosexuals. I wrote a post about this type of traumatic flashback titled - AUSCHWITZ - CHRISTMAS 2008 -- A flashback far more severe than in - BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN – December 26, 2008 - by Fr.

Hitler. 1936-1945: Nemesis
Ian Kershaw 2001
…In February 1937 Hitler made it plain to his inner circle that he did not want a ‘Church struggle’ at this juncture. The time was not ripe for it…The anti-clericalism and anti-Church sentiments of the grass-roots Party activists simply could not be eradicated…The stranglehold that the Churches maintained over the values and mentalities of large sections of the population was an obvious thorn in the side of a Movement with its own highly intolerant ‘world-view’, which saw itself as making a total claim on soul as well as body. The assault on the practices and institutions of the Christian Churches was deeply embedded in the psyche of National Socialism…
At the same time, the activists could draw on the verbal violence of Party leaders towards the Churches for their encouragement. Goebbels’s orchestrated attacks on the clergy through the staged ‘immorality trials’ of Franciscans in 1937 – following usually trumped-up or grossly exaggerated allegations of sexual impropriety in the religious orders – provided further ammunition. And, in turn, however much Hitler on some occasions claimed to want a respite in the conflict, his own inflammatory comments gave his immediate underlings all the licence they needed to turn up the heat in the ‘Church struggle’, confident that they were ‘working towards the Führer’.
Hitler’s impatience with the Churches prompted frequent outbursts of hostility. In early 1937, he was declaring that ‘Christianity was ripe for destruction’ (Untergang) , and that the Churches must yield to the ‘primacy of the state’, railing against any compromise with ‘the most horrible institution imaginable’…However, he indicated that at some point in the future Church and state would be separated, the Concordat of 1933 between the Reich and the Vatican dissolved (to provide the regime with a free hand), and the entire force of the Party turned to ‘the destruction of the clerics (Pfaffen)’…
Addressing the Gauleiter in mid-March, Hitler announced that he wanted ‘no ordinary victory’ over the Churches. Either one should keep quiet about an opponent (totschweigen), or slay him (totschlagen), was how he put it. In April, Goebbels reported with satisfaction that the Führer was becoming more radical in the ‘Church Question’, and had approved the start of the ‘immorality trials’ against clergy. Goebbels noted Hitler’s verbal attacks on the clergy and his satisfaction with the propaganda campaign on several subsequent occasions over the following few weeks…

Racial Hygiene - Medicine Under the Nazis
Robert N. Proctor 1990
Scholars exploring the history of science under the Nazis have generally concentrated on the Nazi destruction of science or the corruption of intellectual and liberal values. Racial Hygiene focuses on how scientists themselves participated in the construction of Nazi racial policy. Robert Proctor demonstrates that the common picture of a passive scientific community coerced into cooperation with the Nazis fails to grasp the reality of what actually happened—namely, that many of the political initiatives of the Nazis arose from within the scientific community, and that medical scientists actively designed and administered key elements of National Socialist policy…

NAZI MEDICAL ETHICS: ORDINARY DOCTORS?
ROBERT N. PROCTOR, PHD
Few aspects of recent medical history are as troubling as medicine under National Socialism. Part of this has to do with the severity of the ethical breach: More than 1,000 people were killed in the course of human experiments performed at German concentration camps; between 350,000 and 400,000 were sterilized as “genetic defectives”; another 200,000 were exterminated in the “euthanasia” operation; and an estimated 6,000,000 Jews perished in the “Final Solution,” along with many tens of thousands of Sinti and Roma. Part of the shocking nature of these events, however, is the willingness with which medical practitioners undertook these deeds. Nazi medicine represents a low-water mark in medical ethics, and, indeed, much of contemporary medical ethics can be seen as a response to the abuses of this era. To understand how German medicine in the 1930s and 1940s came to epitomize medical evil, it is necessary to review what it was like prior to 1933, when Hitler took power…

Extensive research related both to children/teens growing-up gay and as LGB adults - has shown that exposure to Antigay Societal Prejudices have a negative high risk impact on their physical and mental health that is life-threatening beginning throughout adolescence and as LGB adults “including depressive symptoms, substance use, and suicidal ideation…” This research has been accepted by all the major medical and mental health associations, issuing Position Statements warning of these life-threatening risk factors to the safety, well-being and lives of LGBT people “on Attempts to Change Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, or Gender Expression.” Failure to heed these warnings - beginning with children during their early childhood psychological developmental years results in lifelong long harmful effects that are life-debilitating to the LGB person and to the lives of the many people this LGB person associates with throughout his lifetime.
These lifelong harmful effects are displayed by the character of Ennis Del Mar, from the 2005 movie “Brokeback Mountain” that begin when, as a young child, his father shows him a “mutilated body of the gay rancher.” The lasting effects of this early childhood traumatic experience remain disruptive for Ennis throughout his adulthood years, as noted in his inability to form a lifelong fulling relationship with anyone. As is the case with traumatic events in a person - the person will continually throughout his life will experience -such flashbacks to the memory of this past and distance traumatic event - as if it was happening for the first time. Ennis, by chance, fell in love with Jack Twist, the normal and natural functioning of a person’s sexual orientation, whether gay, straight or bisexual, and though Ennis blames Jack for the reason his life ended up to be nothing - in truth it is not Jack that caused the problem. It was the lifelong harmful effects of his memory of his father showing him the “mutilated body of the gay rancher” that Ennis could not accept the fact that he was gay. It was the forced suppression of being gay, which is an impossibility, that sucked up his psyche energy that he had nothing left to form a life. In contrast, to Ennis’s flashback - Jack has no horrific antigay flashback to his early childhood years. The flashback that Jack does have - is of a loving embrace being held by Ennis. It is a Powerful, Enduring & Life-sustaining Memory of LOVE.
A real life situation or rather situations is easily observed in the lives of the majority of the members of the curia, the hierarchy and lower ranks of the clergy (though not true of all members). This is a most unfortunate situation. This is because the devastating harm they have been and are still causing to people, globally, in their obsessive antigay crusade to repressed, like Ennis, by blaming all gay people, particularly all gay males, gay priests, for their 24/7 never ending very same-sex attraction, the problem is not other gay males or gay priests that activates homoerotic arousal. The problem is they were traumatically forced, out fear of being abandoned, to suppressed their gay sexual orientation that is the problem. Their mental flashbacks to these early childhood traumatic memories of these antigay violent events and situations in their past (event buried in their unconscious mind, but not the emotion of the event), brings the horrific emotion of the past - alive in the present.

Pope Francis grew up in a social environment that was far from being severely antigay. From the late 1800s men have been dancing the tango together in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Buenos Aires is neither over populated with homosexuals or “intrinsically disordered.” Pope Francis from the start of his papacy exhibited no obsessive behavioral characteristics common among repressed homosexuals. Pope Francis was unable to be intimidated or coerced into action - by blackmailing threats of being exposed as a homosexuals - the tapping into a person’s fears and hysteria of early childhood, the lifelong harmful effects, caused by the traumatic events forcing the suppression a gay child’s sexual orientation, as has been proven to be the case with the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy for the past several decades. After Pope Francis's election to the papacy - he immediately began in earnest to tackle the corruption of the Vatican Bank threatening the funding to the poor in the world. His efforts in reforming the bank appears to have triggered a backlash by the mysterious shifting around of information in the personnel file of Msgr. Battista Ricca, who he appointed, to be his eyes and ears, to the bank. The information that was mysteriously removed about Ricca’s gay relationships 10 years in the past, had mysteriously reappeared in Ricca’s file after Pope Francis appointed him to the bank and was mysteriously leaked to the press. It was, the now familiar, “one two punch” attack to Pope Francis, first, to publicly discredit him and second, to force the removal of Ricca from the bank. However, this “one two punch” backfired - it did not discredit Pope Francis nor did it get Ricca removed. Why? It backfired because, unlike the majority of the members of the curia and the hierarchy, - Pope Francis had not grown up in a severely antigay social environment. He could not be coerced into submission by triggering some past early childhood traumatic events of being forced to suppress a gay sexual orientation, as has been the case with - the rest of the members of the curia and the hierarchy and continues to be. Whether Pope Francis is gay or straight is undetectable, this is quite evident by his reaction throughout the unfolding events of Ricca’s news media coverage that was summed by his famous “off the cuff” statement “Who am I to judge?” Pope Francis is not obsessive against any group of people. His behavior reaction towards gay people - is a striking contrast of the exact opposite reactions of those prelates who grew up in severely hostile antigay social environments.
Through a review of the historical violent antigay events that Pope Benedict XVI grew up in for the first 18 years of his life 1927-1945, of how Hitler exploited the societal antigay prejudices of Germany for his own selfish gain: (1) to get the conservative votes he needed to become the dictator of Nazi Germany, March 1933, (2) to justify - his massacre and removal of his opposition/enemies and avoid public outcry - (a) Hitler’s highly publicized false accusations that the Nazi Stormtroopers (SA) 1934 was filled with homosexuals, (important to note: the SA is the same group that Benedict’s father, a policeman, tried to reign in, causing the family having to move several times before Benedict was 10 years old) and (b) Hitler’s highly publicized false accusations that German Catholic Clergy were homosexuals — then fast forward to the historical events beginning in 1981 and in reviewing the documentation of numerous antigay pronouncements that Benedict had issued, during the 25 years, he was head of the Doctrine of the Faith and the 8 years he was pope, there is a striking similarity in his treatment of homosexuals and the Nazi antigay propaganda of his early childhood years. Homosexuals, like the Jewish people - were treated by the Nazis - as subhuman - not as real human beings, in that the Jewish people were not deserving to share in the rights and privileges as the rest of humanity. Though, Benedict has never imitated the Nazis dehumanizing mistreatment of Jewish people, he has without fail - consistently imitated the Nazis dehumanizing mistreatment of homosexuals. Why treat homosexuals as subhumans and not the Jewish people? In the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Benedict in a matter of a few words is completely dismissive of the science on homosexuality, as of little importance to the safety, and well-being of the lives of gay people, especially children. Benedict's denial of the relevance of science of homosexuals - is a most striking and horrific re-enactment of Hitler’s and Nazi regime’s ideology of nazism. And far worst, is that no one in the curia or hierarchy, challenges this blatant disregard of human beings! Instead, it is hailed as if coming directly from God! Isn't this blasphemy? Benedict commits the breach that he emphatically warns others to avoid -

…TRUTH is the light that gives meaning and value to CHARITY. That light is both the light of REASON and the light of FAITH, through which the intellect attains to the natural and supernatural truth of charity: it grasps its meaning as GIFT, acceptance, and communion. WITHOUT truth, charity degenerates into SENTIMENTALITY. 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. Truth FREES charity from the constraints of an EMOTIONALISM that deprives it of relational and social content, and of a FIDEISM that deprives it of human and universal breathing-space. In the truth, charity reflects the personal yet public dimension of faith in the God of the Bible, who is both Agápe and Lógos: Charity and Truth, Love and Word...
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…

On Gay Priests “Who am I to Judge?”

Pope Francis
We have to find a new balance; otherwise
even the moral edifice of the church is likely to
FALL LIKE A HOUSE OF CARDS,
losing the freshness and fragrance
of the Gospel.
Pope Francis
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.
Pope John Paul II - 1988
It is not until, one fully realizes that not even I could escape the reasoning that led me to feel morally obligated to "coming out" in March 1997 for the safety and well-being of very young children growing-up gay. This is because the reasoning that led me to come out - was obtained through the ongoing dialogue between science and religion on homosexuality. This reasoning clearly has identified - the lifelong devastating harmful effects that is caused to children growing up gay, by the influence of unsubstantiated antigay social and religious norms. Benedict XVI and majority of the members of the curia and the hierarchy - growing up gay in violent antigay social environments, as adults they - are living proof of these lifelong harmful effects as demonstrated by their behavioral re-enactments of the same antigay violence found in their respective social environments that they were raised in. Benedict mirrors the dehumanizing antigay tactics of Nazi Germany of the 1930s and 1940s, Cardinal Burke imitates US Senator Joseph McCarthy's national terrorizing witch hunts for homosexuals of the 1950s and so on and so on. It is at this, point, that one will realize that my coming out, March 1997, had nothing to do with me and had everything to with truth and love, as described by Benedict XVI and John Paul II. As I told, Walter Hurley, in light of all his vile coercive tactics to force me to leave the priesthood that all I have to justify my resistance was - a very very small piece of truth, (which is not one of their 52 cards) and that will also expose his hypocrisy. Regardless, of all the insane evil antics of the curia and hierarchy initiated to remove and silence me, including their latest fierce nonsense to further destroy my reputation, the strength of this small piece of truth has remained unchanged. I thought that I would have fulfilled my moral obligation by "coming-out" March 1997, but instead of the curia acknowledging this small piece of truth they have viciously try to destroy it. Which has led my investigative research to try to understand and expose for the safety and well-being of children, how long has this entrenched corruption of the curia has been going on. Photo
At the arrival of Pope Francis, 2013, in his reform work but especially his risking his life to meet the immediate needs of those are suffering the most in worlds - he set the course of the Church directly back onto every word of Christ. And in this process, it began exposing the corruption entrenched within the curia. Even after 5 years, his continuous efforts caring for those most in need in the world - has indirectly exposed the heighten degree of resistance he has been experiencing within the curia and hierarchy. It removed much of the curia's shield of bureaucratic anonymity (Hunthausen Affair ) that revealed that it was Benedict XVI who opened the doors that allowed the Vatican to be flooded with obsessive repressed homosexuals, seeking to escape the truth of the normal 24/7 continuous functioning of their own gay sexual orientation. And in their attempt to rid themselves of their own unacknowledged homosexual feelings by the defense of projective identification they accuse other people of having homosexual feelings and then treating these people as if they are truly having homosexual feelings, but they are not. Yes, it is nuts, but this is easily identified in this homogeneous population of repressed homosexual members of the curia and the hierarchy. All this twisted adult behavioral is derailed during early childhood years growing-up gay in antigay social environments. And this is the reasoning why I came out March 1997 in an attempt to gain public attention in hopes of helping to protect children from becoming victims of these lifelong harmful effects caused antigay prejudices.

Study: Tolerance Can Lower Gay Kids' Suicide Risk
NPR December 29, 2008
…Gay, lesbian, and bisexual teens and young adults have one of the highest rates of suicide attempts, along with health problems including substance abuse. But new research [Family Rejection as a Predictor of Negative Health Outcomes in White and Latino Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Young Adults - PEDIATRICS 123(1):346-52 · February 2009] shows that when a parent is neutral about a son or daughter being gay, or even only mildly rejecting, that goes a long way to reduce a child's risk…
[CAITLIN RYAN - researcher - interviewed]
SHAPIRO: Today, Ryan runs a research program at San Francisco State University. She still sees gay kids who say their parents reject them, are violent, or even kicked them out of the house. Ryan and her researchers conducted lengthy interviews with more than 200 gay, lesbian, and bisexual young adults. Ryan tried to judge whether, as adolescents, they'd faced low, moderate, or high levels of rejection from their families. That's hard to measure, so she looked at things like, did parents tried to get a kid to change their sexual orientation, or try to stop them from being with other gay kids.
Ms. RYAN: Parents thought that by trying to change them, that would make them happy. But actually it put their children at great risk, and so when we shared that with parents, they were shocked.
SHAPRIO: The research appears in the current issue of the journal Pediatrics. Kids who'd experienced lots of rejection were nearly eight and a half times more likely to have attempted suicide, nearly six times more likely to report high levels of depression, and almost three and a half times more likely to use illegal drugs or engage in unprotected sex. That was compared to adolescents from families that may have felt uncomfortable with a gay kid, but were neutral or only mildly rejecting. And that what's got other health researchers excited about Ryan's work, because it shows that just a little bit of acceptance can go a long way.
Ms. EFFIE MALLEY (Senior Prevention Specialist, Suicide Prevention Research Center): The big impact of Ryan's study is pointing out that family rejection is so harmful. And having a family that accepts them is a huge protective factor.
SHAPIRO: That's Effie Malley of the federally funded Suicide Prevention Research Center. She's done her own research and released another study this month that shows gay teens have very high rates of suicide attempts. She says parents matter and so do peers, teachers, and society in general.
Ms. MALLEY: What I'd like to see down the road, is that parents and people who work with families counseling them would really take to heart Ryan and her co-authors' research about not trying to change who the parents are or their beliefs, but just to help them recognize the words they use and the actions that are harmful to their kids and to stop using those behaviors… Read or listen more:
Family Rejection as a Predictor of Negative Health Outcomes in White and Latino Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Young Adults
Caitlin Ryan, David Huebner, Rafael M. Diaz and Jorge Sanchez - Pediatrics 2009;123;346 - American Academy of Pediatrics
Abstract
OBJECTIVE. We examined specific family rejecting reactions to sexual orientation and gender expression during adolescence as predictors of current health problems in a sample of lesbian, gay, and bisexual young adults.
RESULTS. Higher rates of family rejection were significantly associated with poorer health outcomes. On the basis of odds ratios, lesbian, gay, and bisexual young adults who reported higher levels of family rejection during adolescence were 8.4 times more likely to report having attempted suicide, 5.9 times more likely to report high levels of depression, 3.4 times more likely to use illegal drugs, and 3.4 times more likely to report having engaged in unprotected sexual intercourse compared with peers from families that reported no or low levels of family rejection. Latino men reported the highest number of negative family reactions to their sexual orientation in adolescence.
CONCLUSIONS. This study establishes a clear link between specific parental and caregiver rejecting behaviors and negative health problems in young lesbian, gay, and bisexual adults. Providers who serve this population should assess and help educate families about the impact of rejecting behaviors. Counseling families, providing anticipatory guidance, and referring families for counseling and support can help make a critical difference in helping decrease risk and increasing well-being for lesbian, gay, and bisexual youth. Pediatrics 2009;123:346–352
SINCE STUDIES WERE first published on homosexual youth in the 1970s and 1980s, serious health disparities3–8 have been documented among lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) adolescents compared with their heterosexual peers. Population-based and community studies have documented higher levels of suicide attempts,9–11 substance use, symptoms of depression and mental health problems, and sexual health risks, including risk for sexually transmitted infections, HIV, and adolescent pregnancy. Similarly, population-based studies have reported high levels of negative health outcomes for LGB adults compared with heterosexuals.
Both practitioners and researchers have noted that risks to physical, emotional, and social health for sexual minority adolescents are primarily related to social stigma and negative societal responses, particularly in schools. In addition, several studies have linked minority stress (experiencing and internalizing negative life events and victimization in the social environment) with negative health outcomes in LGB adults, including depressive symptoms, substance use, and suicidal ideation… Read more: https://myhs.ucdmc.ucdavis.edu/documents/41620/0/LGBT+Youth+-+Ryan+Family+Rejection+as+a+Predictor+of+Negative+Health+Outcomes.pdf/705c8650-9a29-4881-b947-6f92a7666ff5

Approved by Council February 2018
The AACAP Policy on “Conversion Therapies”
The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry finds no evidence to support the application of any “therapeutic intervention” operating under the premise that a specific sexual orientation, gender identity, and/or gender expression is pathological. Furthermore, based on the scientific evidence, the AACAP asserts that such “conversion therapies” (or other interventions imposed with the intent of promoting a particular sexual orientation and/or gender as a preferred outcome) lack scientific credibility and clinical utility. Additionally, there is evidence that such interventions are harmful. As a result, “conversion therapies” should not be part of any behavioral health treatment of children and adolescents. However, this in no way detracts from the standard of care which requires that clinicians facilitate the developmentally appropriate, open exploration of sexual orientation, gender identity, and/or gender expression, without any pre-determined outcome….

The impact was especially significant among gay, lesbian and bisexual teenagers, for whom the passing of same-sex marriage laws was linked to a 14% drop in suicide attempts.

Memory of
HATE & Brutal Violence
Ennis's Traumatic Early Childhood Memory Scene - Video
Brokeback Mountain
by Roger Ebert - December 15, 2005
Ennis tells Jack about something he saw as a boy. "There were two old guys shacked up together. They were the joke of the town, even though they were pretty tough old birds." One day they were found beaten to death. Ennis says: "My dad, he made sure me and my brother saw it. For all I know, he did it."
This childhood memory is always there, the ghost in the room, in Ang Lee's "Brokeback Mountain." When he was taught by his father to hate homosexuals, Ennis was taught to hate his own feelings. Years after he first makes love with Jack on a Wyoming mountainside, after his marriage has failed, after his world has compressed to a mobile home, the laundromat, the TV, he still feels the same pain: "Why don't you let me be? It's because of you, Jack, that I'm like this -- nothing, and nobody.”… Read more: https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/brokeback-mountain-2005

It takes a tremendous amount of mental energy to constantly keep all and any thoughts, feelings, or sexual arousal repressed. This would include avoiding any same sex friendships and or relationships from developing, especially if the repressed homosexual - feels the slightest sexual arousal. ”It becomes a never-ending self-torturous life style ( Henry Krystal, M.D. http://www.ibrarian.net/navon/paper/Chapter_8__Psychoanalytic_Approaches_to_Trauma__A.pdf?paperid=16436404).” Read more above: starting with - It is impossible to repress any type of sexual orientation, gay, straight or bisexual, because a person’s sexual orientation functions continuously 24/7 outside conscious awareness - as it is under the control of the autonomic nervous system...
“A Love Story” the words of Ang Lee - Film Director of Brokeback Mountain 2005
Brokeback Mountain - is story, written by Annie Proulx - about a loving relationship, between Jack and Ennis, involved in a mixture of - strong, lasting, unidentified and unspoken feelings that cannot be suppressed or buried but keeps to - “come flooding back.” Jack does not understand it but he follows his heart and wants more. Ennis, can't see how - because he is blocked by the traumatic paralyzing fear of an early childhood memory of his father forcing him to view a mutilated body of a man who was killed because the man was a homosexual. It is a tragic love story due to societal ignorance and fear about homosexuality. Through Ennis's character - it is clearly portrayed the impossibility of suppressing one’s gay sexual orientation and the tragic lifelong harmful effects that ensues - not only destroying the individual’s life but the lives of many other people. It is a story that need not be repeated today - through maintaining the dialogue between science and religion on gay sexual orientation. However, unfortunately. like Ennis - it is a tragedy that continues to be repeated and perpetuated by the majority of the members of the curia and the hierarchy that has trickled down through all levels of the clergy to the grassroots of the priesthood. (Most assuredly this statement is not meant to included every member of the clergy or hierarchy - Thank God! Small though this number appears to be - it is however, a very strong and encouraging - sign of hope of truth and of love - to many many people around the world, especially to children.)
It has created a repressive homosexual organizational culture that is extremely pervasive throughout the Roman Catholic clergy at all levels around the world. This is because of someone in the hierarchy who for nearly 25 years - held the second most powerful position of authority in the Church immediately after the Pope. This second most powerful person in the Church - suffered far more severe flashbacks to early childhood memories than the character Ennis from Brokeback Mountain - in intensity, in number and in duration lasting almost over two decades, the first 18 years of this person's life - growing up in Nazi Germany. This person over a period of 25 years - recruited only repressive homosexual clerics to the curia and hierarchy, who were accurately described by Archbishop Weakland in 1986 in an article he wrote titled '"The Price of Orthodoxy,' Archbishop Weakland appeared to be directing his remarks to Vatican inquisitors.
He contended that previous efforts to monitor and safeguard Catholic doctrine have been undertaken in an atmosphere where 'amateurs-turned-theologians easily became headhunters and leaders were picked (on the basis of) the rigidity of their doctrine, so that often second-rate and repressive minds, riding on the waves of fear, took over.
'Religion under such circumstances then can become an ideology that tolerates no obstacle and that values ideas more than people', he wrote (http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1986-09-28/news/8603120562_1_archbishop-weakland-seattle-archbishop-raymond-hunthausen-seattle-archdiocese )..."
This is how over the past 30 years the majority of Church's members in the curia and hierarchy came to be repressed homosexuals leading an obsessive antigay crusade that had filtered down to the grassroots of the priesthood. And at the grassroots of the Church's ignorance and fear of gay people spread to the laity. And according to the research of Columbia University and the University of Rochester, as stated above, titled - "Origins of the Culture War: Social Issues in State Party Platforms, 1960-2014" described that the bottom-up process is how social revolution begins, explaining how antigay prejudices became an effective political wedge. And from there, like the Nazis - it is and has been exploited for political gain, of power and wealth - that is valuing profits over people and including ignoring warnings of climate change that is threatening our very existence on this planet. What is most illuminating - is people’s reactions to this film Brokeback Mountain, especially those of priests, the curia and hierarchy. Reactions that are completely emotional are most telling, as opposed to those that contain both an emotional and a supporting rationale. For example: on December 16, 2005 - hysteria alone - completely triumphs over the absence of rationale - "'Brokeback Mountain,' originally rated L (limited adult audience) by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, has been reclassified as an O (morally offensive) after several pro-family organizations expressed concern for what they saw as an implicit endorsement of the USCCB film critic to the controversial gay western (https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/usccb_reclassifies_gay_western_brokeback_mountain_after_complaints)."
NPR - Ang Lee: Breaking Down 'Brokeback Mountain’ - December 23, 2005
…Mr. ANG LEE (Film Director): To be honest with you, I'm positive myself. People describe it as a gay cowboy or a gay Western, which is not so incorrect. It's not like they're not cowboys or they're not gay, but culturally it has a funny connotation. So I started calling it a love story. But it's--usually in movie drama, love story, you have very soft approach. And this is a very masculine.

NPR - From Page to Screen: 'Brokeback Mountain’ - December 9, 2005
BOB MONDELLO reporting:
Jack Twist and Ennis Del Mar, dirt-poor ranch hands looking for summer jobs, meet outside a Wyoming trailer in 1963, except they don't really meet because neither says a word until a foreman finally shows up and asks their names. For much of that summer, tending sheep on a mountain called Brokeback, they stay remote from each other. In fact, even after they fall into a drunken sexual encounter that both shocks them and feels right enough to repeat, they barely talk except to mutter that what happens on Brokeback stays on Brokeback. Then at summer's end...
MONDELLO: ...they return to convention, getting married, having kids. But when Jack gets back in touch with Ennis four years later, those feelings they didn't talk about come flooding back, longings that can't be sated with twice-a-year fishing weekends where no one fishes. Jack wants more; Ennis can't see how…
MONDELLO:..Rugged individuals stoically facing longing and loss--that's the essence of Annie Proulx's short story...It also fleshes out the men's families, establishing that no one wins when they bow to social pressures.

…BLOCK: Narrative instruction…this is a scene when Ennis and Jack have reunited four years after their original summer on Brokeback Mountain, and they've embraced very tightly, and then they've separated and there's a paragraph where Annie Proulx writes, `Ennis can still smell Jack, the intensely familiar odor of cigarettes, musky sweat and a faint sweetness like grass, and with it, the rushing color of the mountain.

About - The author of Brokeback Mountain
E. Annie Proulx - 1994 Pulitzer Prize Winner in Fiction Photo
November 12, 1997
Amid a hubub of headlines and applause, E. Annie Proulx appeared on the literary scene in 1994 with her second novel, The Shipping News. Though she seemed to have come out of nowhere, she had soon secured her place in the world of letters with a National Book Award, a Pulitzer Prize, and another acclaimed novel, Accordion Crimes (1996). Proulx in fact did come from out of nowhere: for most of her adult life she was following her own advice -- "spend some time living before you start writing" -- working as a freelancer to pay the bills, raising children, living deep in the woods, and involving herself in the back-to-the-land movement. Proulx didn't take on fiction writing until she was in her fifties, when Scribner published her collection of short stories, Heart Songs (1988), and her first novel, Postcards (1992); now, a mere handful of years later, inundated with invitations to speak, attend book signings, write book reviews, and judge short-story contests, she has to fend this all off to get close to what really matters: her fiction…

"was the time that distant summer on Brokeback when Ennis had come up behind him and pulled him close, the silent embrace satisfying some shared and sexless hunger." Photo
Jack’s enduring and sustaining flashback, unlike Ennis’s flashback, which was debilitating sucking the very essence of life out of him, Jack’s is to an extraordinary loving memory standing and being held by Ennis in front of a campfire for an extended period of time. Jack’s flashback has lasted untouched over the past twenty years and “What Jack remembered and craved in a way he could neither help nor understand was to the time that distant summer on Brokeback when Ennis had come up behind him and pulled him close, the silent embrace satisfying some shared and sexless hunger” - as written by Annie Proulx. Annie Proulx wrote that this was the most difficult scene for her to write, but that it was in the music titled ‘Spiritual’ from the album 'Beyond the Missouri Sky (Short Stories)' that expressed the tragic impossibility of their relationship. An excerpts: of this above statement and including the text she wrote are listed below. At the end of this paragraph - is a link to a short video clip of the words she wrote and the music that inspirer her to write them - put together in this scene from the film Brokeback Mountain. Subjectively, it appeared to be - just a slice of heaven, of all that is good, true and loving - sustaining and unforgettable through time and beyond. It is not intrinsically disordered and Thank God it is the 'deeply rooted human tendencies to love and to be loved and to feel as one with another human being - the essence of true love’ - a gift from God, who is love.

Brokeback Mountain: Story to Screenplay
by Annie Proulx, Larry McMurtry, Diana Ossana -2006
Annie Proulx writes - “The most difficult scene was the paragraph where, on the mountain, Ennis holds Jack and rocks back and forth, humming, the moment mixed with childhood loss and his refusal to admit he was holding a man. This paragraph took forever to get right, and I played Charlie Hayden's and Pat Metheny 'Spiritual', from their album 'Beyond the Missouri Sky (Short Stories)' uncountable times, trying to get the words. I was trying to write the inchoate feelings of Jack and Ennis, the sad impossibility of their liaison, which for me was expressed in that music. To this day, I cannot hear that track without Jack and Ennis appearing before me." -
Brokeback Mountain
By Annie Proulx
The New Yorker, October 13, 1997 Issue
Excerpt: (The scene is - twenty years later after Jack and Ennis first met on Brokeback Mountain.)
..“Try this one,” said Jack, “and I’ll say it just one time. Tell you what, we could a had a good life together, a _ _ _ _ real good life. You wouldn’t do it, Ennis, so what we got now is Brokeback Mountain. Everything built on that. It’s all we got, boy…Count the damn few times we been together in twenty years. Measure the _ _ _ _ short leash you keep me on, then ask me about Mexico and then tell me you’ll kill me for needin it and not hardly never gettin it. You got no _ _ _ _ idea how bad it gets. I’m not you. I can’t make it on a couple a high-altitude _ _ _ _ once or twice a year. You’re too much for me, Ennis…I wish I knew how to quit you”…
…What Jack remembered and craved in a way he could neither help nor understand was the time that distant summer on Brokeback when Ennis had come up behind him and pulled him close, the silent embrace satisfying some shared and sexless hunger.
They had stood that way for a long time in front of the fire, its burning tossing ruddy chunks of light, the shadow of their bodies a single column against the rock. The minutes ticked by from the round watch in Ennis’s pocket, from the sticks in the fire settling into coals. Stars bit through the wavy heat layers above the fire. Ennis’s breath came slow and quiet, he hummed, rocked a little in the sparklight, and Jack leaned against the steady heartbeat, the vibrations of the humming like faint electricity and, standing, he fell into sleep that was not sleep but something else drowsy and tranced until Ennis, dredging up a rusty but still usable phrase from the childhood time before his mother died, said, “Time to hit the hay, cowboy. I got a go. Come on, you’re sleepin on your feet like a horse,” and gave Jack a shake, a push, and went off in the darkness. Jack heard his spurs tremble as he mounted, the words “See you tomorrow,” and the horse’s shuddering snort, grind of hoof on stone.
Later, that dozy embrace solidified in his memory as the single moment of artless, charmed happiness in their separate and difficult lives. Nothing marred it, even the knowledge that Ennis would not then embrace him face to face because he did not want to see or feel that it was Jack he held. And maybe, he thought, they’d never got much farther than that. Let be, let be….

Sixty years later: post-traumatic stress symptoms and current psychopathology in former German children of World War II
International Psychogeriatrics: page1of 7 - Published online: 27 October 2006 - doi:10.1017/S104161020600442X
Introduction
War is a complex, long-lasting trauma composed of multiple stressors such as physical harm, intimidation, loss of loved ones, deprivation, abuse and starvation (Berman, 2001). Children represent a highly vulnerable population, whose rights and needs are usually subordinated to the burden of war (Barenbaum et al., 2004)…
…Differences in the prevalence of long-lasting post-traumatic symptoms after war may be explained by a number of factors, including initial severity, psychosocial milieu after trauma, and continuing disruption, for example as a result of displacement (Barenbaum et al., 2004). The impact of a childhood in war on post-traumatic symptoms in later life is rarely examined. Teegen and Meister (2000) found 5% PTSD and 25% partial PTSD among former German adolescent refugees of World War II. Yet most of the former children of World War II have managed their lives successfully: they have rebuilt destroyed cities, made their careers and had families. They can be seen as the “generation of normality” (Ermann, 2003). However, the complex challenges associated with reaching retirement see many former war children confronting the issues of their childhood (Radebold, 2003). The goal of our study was to determine the level of post-traumatic stress symptoms and current psychopathology in a sample of former German children 60 years after the end of World War II…
Discussion
…The late life effect of war trauma on small children needs further investigation with more appropriate instruments. Qualitative study designs, for example, could assess more subtle changes brought about by a war childhood (Ermann, 2004; 2005). Finally, the long-lasting wounds of World War II are a strong argument for preventing their repetition in current conflicts: countries should take all measures to ensure protection and care of children who are affected by war (UNHCHR, 1990). Read research:
Traumatic experiences and post-traumatic stress disorder among elderly Germans: results of a representative population-based survey - International Psychogeriatrics 2010, 22(04):661-670
Background: Only a few population-based studies on the epidemiology of post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSDs) are available to date. Most of the existing studies are from the U.S.A. Against the background of World War II, the extent and long-term effects of war-related traumatic experiences in the German elderly population are of special interest…
…In summary, the German elderly population frequently experienced war and violence-related trauma in World War II. These experiences were mostly evaluated as the worst traumatic experiences of their lives and induced relevant traumatic symptoms and PTSDs even 60 years later. These findings underpin the widespread and long-lasting consequences of wars. Read research:

Pope at Mass: ‘Without love the Church cannot move or grow’

Pope: Without love, service, church is just an 'empty institution'
Apr 26, 2018
VATICAN CITY — The example of selfless love and humble service set forth by Jesus at the Last Supper is the foundation of the Catholic Church's mission in the world, Pope Francis said.
Jesus’ institution of the Eucharist and washing his disciples' feet are gestures of love "that make the church grow if we are faithful," the pope said in his homily April 26 during Mass at the Domus Sanctae Marthae.
"Without love, (the church) doesn't grow, it transforms into an empty institution, of appearances, of gestures without fruitfulness," he said. "Jesus tells how we should love: until the end”…

Trial of Galileo (1633)
Unlike the Galileo Affair that took nearly 400 years for the Vatican to apologize to Galileo for the injustice that they inflicted on him (The Galileo Affair, Pope John Paul II - an unofficial english translation). Today, with the speed of social media, the repeal of the Vatican’s “deep-seated homosexual tendencies” should be forthcoming quite soon. If not, it will continue to render the curia - meaningless (unintelligible, incomprehensible, incoherent.) and irrelevant (not connected to reality and therefore not connect to spirituality). Without the inclusion of the science on homosexuality in the formation of these terms “deep-seated homosexual tendencies” and “intrinsically disordered” are arbitrary terms not based on truth and therefore they are not about God’s love, though they are past off, by the curia and hierarchy, as if it comes from God. Jesus blasted the Pharisees for this same form of deception of pasting off their human made rules over the importance of God’s words of love, when the Pharisees publicly criticized Jesus’s disciples for not obeying “what the elders teach” about washing their hands before eating. Jesus’s reprimanding words to the Pharisees are still applicable to the curia and hierarchy, today.
“Listen and understand.
What goes into someone’s mouth
does not make them
‘unclean.’
It’s what comes out of their mouth
that makes them
‘unclean.’ ”
Matthew 15:11
To limit the understanding of human sexuality to two, narrowly defined, specific genders of heterosexuality is imbecilic and deadly, though it is the common deified practice of “wishful thinking” or "magical thinking” (early childhood belief of children that “they can make life be anything they want it to be”) of the curia and hierarchy, in lieu of - appealing to evidence, rationality, or reality. Human sexuality is no less as complex than the ongoing study of the university or DNA. Allowing this form of "magical thinking” of the curia and hierarchy - regarding human sexuality, specifically gay sexual orientation - to permeate throughout the grassroots of the Church makes it politically exploitable for severe and monumental human destruction, as is historically documented in events and situations such as, World War II, Hitler and the Nazis rise to the dictatorship of Germany and the actualization of ideology of nazism. Let’s get a grip on the reality of human sexuality and put aside the "magical thinking" of early childhood years!!!
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.

Cari fratelli e sorelle, buongiorno!
In questo tempo pasquale la Parola di Dio continua a indicarci stili di vita coerenti per essere la comunità del Risorto…
Anzitutto è importante prendere coscienza che l’amore di Cristo non è un sentimento superficiale, no, è un atteggiamento fondamentale del cuore, che si manifesta nel vivere come Lui vuole. Gesù infatti afferma: «Se osserverete i miei comandamenti, rimarrete nel mio amore, come io ho osservato i comandamenti del Padre mio e rimango nel suo amore» (v. 10). L’amore si realizza nella vita di ogni giorno, negli atteggiamenti, nelle azioni; altrimenti è soltanto qualcosa di illusorio. Sono parole, parole, parole: quello non è l’amore. L’amore è concreto, ogni giorno. Gesù ci chiede di osservare i suoi comandamenti, che si riassumono in questo: «che vi amiate gli uni gli altri come io ho amato voi» (v. 12)…

Only a well-formed conscience can decide: Cardinal Marx on sexual morality
December 28, 2017
Munich, Germany, Dec 28, 2017 / 02:39 pm (CNA).- German Cardinal Reinhard Marx has stated that decisions about sexual morality must be discerned according to a well-formed conscience, respecting “the interplay of freedom and responsibility.”
The chairman of the German Bishops' Conference said in a new interview that a person "has to be guided into the full reality of the faith and heed the voice of the Church. It is not sufficient to say that one knows by oneself whether something is good for you, or not. That would not constitute a conscientious decision-making process in the context of the Gospel.”
Speaking to the German magazine "Herder Korrespondenz,” Cardinal Marx affirmed that this also applies to homosexuality.
A “truly comprehensive assessment of the severity of guilt" is not possible "without looking at the individual's conscience, without looking at his reality, at the concrete circumstances.”
Cardinal Marx warned against interpreting this "interplay of freedom and responsibility" as "relativism,” saying that while "there must be respect for the decision that one freely takes,” it is always within the context of the Gospel… Read more: https://cruxnow.com/global-church/2017/12/29/well-formed-conscience-can-decide-cardinal-marx-sexual-morality
What is Intrinsically Disordered and what are “deep seated homosexual tendencies” the criteria that the curia and hierarchy uses “in the name of God” to call gay people “Unclean”? Regardless of the theological and philosophical compositions of these terms, the absence of the science on homosexuality in the formulation of these terms - renders them not based on truth and therefore they are not about love, according to John Paul II and Benedict XVI - not to separate science and religion. It is the breach that arbitrarily twist the meaning of love to the point that it comes to mean the opposite. In this regard, they have succeeded! One needs only to listen to their unsubstantiated dehumanizing public statements made against gay people for verification of the absence of truth and love. Jesus spoke out against the “Pharisees and some teachers of the law” who also dispensed with the importance of God’s words of love for their own teachings, calling them blind guides of the blind. Jesus rebukes the Pharisees and the teachers of the law by stating -
“…why don’t you obey God’s command? You would rather follow your own teachings!…You make the word of God useless in order to follow your own teachings. You pretenders! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you. He said,
“ ‘These people honor me by what they say.
But their hearts are far away from me.
Their worship doesn’t mean anything to me.
They teach nothing but human rules.’ ”
(Isaiah 29:13)
Jesus called the crowd to him. He said, “Listen and understand. What goes into someone’s mouth does not make them ‘unclean.’ It’s what comes out of their mouth that makes them ‘unclean.’ ” Then the disciples came to him. They asked, “Do you know that the Pharisees were angry when they heard this?” Jesus replied, “They are plants that my Father in heaven has not planted. They will be pulled up by the roots. Leave the Pharisees. They are blind guides. If one blind person leads another blind person, both of them will fall into a pit.”

Due to their lack of reason, the absence of the science on homosexuality - of sane rational thinking - the hypocrisy of their self-proclaimed positions claiming to be the sole religious leaders of all christian morality, most dramatically on topic of homosexuality is being exposed continuously that they are becoming more vividly a characterization of the twisted use of reason - of the two elderly aunts, Abby and Martha, in Frank Capra’s 1944 movie version of the play “Arsenic and Old Lace,” a dark comedy film. This lack of reasoning is exposing that the majority of the members of the curia and the hierarchy that like Aunt Abby and Aunt Martha - have been - hiding in the window seats of the Vatican - millions of bodies of not just children growing up gay, but overflowing with all people - far surpassing the atrocities caused by Hitler’s and the Nazi regime’s same twisted use of reasoning - of the science of Racial Hygiene that by the end of world War 2 led to the deaths of 70 million people. The absence of the science on homosexuality - is the breach of not maintaining the ongoing dialogue between science and religion that both John Paul II and Benedict XVI emphatically warned not to allow.
Arsenic and Old Lace (film)
The plot revolves around the Brewster family of Brooklyn, New York, descended from the Mayflower and composed of illustrious ancestors whose portraits line the walls of the ancestral home. The religious theme is repeatedly mentioned, and Elaine is the daughter of the minister who lives next door, with some scenes held in its ancient cemetery. Today the Brewster clan comprises insane murderers…
…Mortimer finds a corpse hidden in a window seat and assumes that Teddy has committed murder under some delusion, but his aunts explain that they are responsible ("It's one of our charities"). They explain in the most innocent terms that they have developed what Mortimer calls the "very bad habit" of ending the presumed suffering of lonely old bachelors by serving them elderberry wine spiked with arsenic, strychnine and "just a pinch of cyanide". The bodies are buried in the basement by Teddy, who believes he is digging locks for the Panama Canal and burying yellow fever victims…
Mortimer fines a dead body in
the window seat.

Youth Suicide,

Climate Change
Causing lifelong Harmful effects to Very Young Children, 4 & 5 year of age, Growing-up-gay, Globally

Benedict XVI
In brief, the movie’s main character is the aunts’ nephew, Mortimer, whose use of reason does not distort reality. I clearly, as I am sure many other people - identify with Mortimer’s unfolding surprised reactions, when he slowly comes face to face for the first time with the shocking overwhelming lethal insanity of his "very" christian and religious aunts, who he dearly loves, when he first fines a dead body in the window seat.
I experienced, as I am sure that many, many others have - the same dumbfounded reaction that Mortimer expresses throughout the film to his aunts' being completely oblivious to the horrific violence they were committing, murdering 12 men and believing it was a charity - this in comparison to not only to the curia's and hierarchy's complete disregard for the science on homosexuality, but that this most grievous arbitrary absence of this science, so vital to the safety and well-being of the lives of millions of children growing up gay, has been allowed to continued unchallenged, in fact, supported by the majority of the members of the clergy at all levels - for the past 30 years. Even far worst they believe homosexuality to be innately evil as created by God. Who's nuts?!?
To listen to such people as Cardinal Burke, Sarah, Chaput, [the aunts] and the like - is like listening to Aunt Abby and Aunt Martha explain their twisted reasoning for proceeding to murder 12 men and then burying their bodies in their basement and claiming it to a charity. Photo, Photo
The parallel between the insanity of two aunts and that of the curia & hierarchy continues after Mortimer fines the body in the window seat and starts questioning how in fact the dead body ended up there, the same for why the absence of the science on homosexuality has last over 3 decades and still continues - both of these inquiring investigations unlocks the door of secrecy and the revelation of the overwhelming insanity and corruption comes bleeding forth.
Mortimer in a heightened emotional state of being in shock - begins questioning his aunts as to how the dead body ended up into the window seat. The aunts causally explain that it is one of their "charities" is to poison lonely old men who have no family. They piously state that they give these men a good christian burial service before burying in their bodies in their basement, as if this justifies the worthiness of this form of charity that they provide for lonely old men.
The striking lethal similarity between these two aunts and the majority of the members of the curia and the hierarchy is their complete lack of rational thinking (objective rationale) that left them both to subjectively, arbitrarily make moral decisions that allowed them to so distort the meaning of love that they twisted love around to mean the opposite.
Therefore, the aunts' charitable service to help lonely old men with no families find peace and the curia's and the hierarchy’s obsessive antigay crusade have nothing to do with truth or love, they are the exact opposite of the meaning of truth and love. It is this same absence of rational thinking that led to the atrocities caused by the ideology of nazism and is the destructive force of globalization.
Both Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI having experienced the horrific effects of nazism - wrote encyclicals about the necessity of never separating science and religion, but instead of maintaining an ongoing dialogue between science and religion to safeguard against allowing any breach to occur that would cause devastating harm to humanity.
Pope Francis has been teaching us by word but especially by example for change to occur begins by people individually being committed to Christ's words of love. According to research, social change is bottom-up movement. Identifying, problems and then working to resolve these problems is the process how change can occur. Take a lesson from Pope France's life commitment to Christ - that is that change cannot occur within ourselves without real prayer that is continuous and our interactions with others.
“Arsenic and Old Lace,” a dark comedy film that was first a play. It would be helpful to research when and why it was written - for what purpose. It appears to help us to identify our blindspots the way we behave individually and collectively. One vivid blindspot is the complete absence of the science on homosexuality in the curia’s arbitrary formulated condition known as the “deep-seated homosexual tendencies” that renders it as lethally harmful, especially to children, globally - as the Aunts' poisonous mixture they added to their homemade wine of the “arsenic, strychnine and ‘just a pinch of cyanide’” that they gave to lonely old men without families to find peace. Getting rid of the old and sick who were considered to be burdens to the future success of the "Third Reich" of Nazi Germany was a key aspect of ideology of nazism.

Hoover's War on Gays Hoover’s War on Gays: Exposing the FBI’s “Sex Deviates”
Author Douglas Charles talked about his book, Hoover’s War on Gays: Exposing the FBI’s “Sex Deviates” Program. Between 1930 and the mid-1970s, the FBI accumulated more than 330,000 pages on so-called “sex deviates,” but these files were destroyed in 1977-1978. Professor Charles talked about his research into the history of the program and the public and official perception of gays during Hoover’s time at the FBI.

Hoover's War on Gays
Exposing the FBI's "Sex Deviates" Program
Douglas M.
September 2015
At the FBI, the “Sex Deviates” program covered a lot of ground, literally; at its peak, J. Edgar Hoovers notorious “Sex Deviates” file encompassed nearly 99 cubic feet or more than 330,000 pages of information. In 1977–1978 these files were destroyed—and it would seem that four decades of the FBIs dirty secrets went up in smoke. But in a remarkable feat of investigative research, synthesis, and scholarly detective work, Douglas M. Charles manages to fill in the yawning blanks in the bureaus history of systematic (some would say obsessive) interest in the lives of gay and lesbian Americans in the twentieth century. His book, Hoover’s War on Gays, is the first to fully expose the extraordinary invasion of US citizens privacy perpetrated on a historic scale by an institution tasked with protecting American life.
For much of the twentieth century, when exposure might mean nothing short of ruin, gay American men and women had much to fear from law enforcement of every kind—but none so much as the FBI, with its inexhaustible federal resources, connections, and its carefully crafted reputation for ethical, by-the-book operations. What Hoover’s War on Gays reveals, rather, is the FBI’s distinctly unethical, off-the-books long-term targeting of gay men and women and their organizations under cover of official rationale—such as suspicion of criminal activity or vulnerability to blackmail and influence. The book offers a wide-scale view of this policy and practice, from a notorious child kidnapping and murder of the 1930s (ostensibly by a sexual predator with homosexual tendencies), educating the public about the threat of deviates, through WWIIs security concerns about homosexuals who might be compromised by the enemy, to the Cold Wars Lavender Scare when any and all gays working for the US government shared the fate of suspected Communist sympathizers. Charless work also details paradoxical ways in which these incursions conjured counterefforts—like the Mattachine Society; ONE, Inc.; and the Daughters of Bilitis—aimed at protecting and serving the interests of postwar gay culture…

‘Hoover’s War on Gays: Exposing the FBI’s Sex Deviates Program’
by Douglas M. Charles
November 27, 2015
I confess to a degree of skepticism when I began reading Douglas M. Charles’s new tome, Hoover’s War on Gays: Exposing the FBI’s “Sex Deviates” Program. The activities of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and J. Edgar Hoover, its insufferable longtime director, would seem by this point to be well-worn scholarly territory.
The field is both broad and deep. To name just a relevant few, FBI historian Athan Theoharis (a mentor to Charles) has written extensively about the FBI’s role in civil liberties abuses, Cold War-era red-baiting, and failed counterintelligence, and even addressed the longstanding rumors about Hoover’s own sexuality in J. Edgar Hoover, Sex, and Crime. Betty Medsger’s recent The Burglary detailed the rise and fall of the FBI’s COINTELPRO program that illegally surveilled and attacked a variety of civil rights, New Left, and countercultural groups. Meanwhile, Douglas Charles himself has surveyed the FBI’s role in “the rise of the domestic security state.” In his brief and brilliant exposé, The FBI’s Obscene File, he also described the bureau’s classification of alleged obscene materials, including how it used such classification to attempt to destroy the organized gay and lesbian movement…
…And what of Hoover’s own sexuality? His relationship with right-hand man Clyde Tolson has certainly been cause for speculation, and that speculation was firmly in place during Hoover’s lifetime. But as Charles points out at the very beginning of Hoover’s War on Gays, comment on Hoover’s personal sexuality remains speculative. (Certainly anyone who believes the accounts of Hoover appearing in public in drag or at orgies — even without knowing the dubious sources of those claims–has very little understanding of the era in which Hoover lived or the social and political position he was attempting to maintain.) Still, Charles’s further assertion, that Hoover’s sexuality simply does not matter, may be surprising to many. He makes a compelling case, though: Hoover’s relentless assault on gays makes perfect sense even if he were straight. Gays and lesbians were an easy target in the culture wars, and rumors of the prominent’s homosexuality were politically advantageous to Hoover’s continued reign. While it may be psychologically satisfying to assume Hoover acted out of self-hatred, that prism is unnecessary; as Charles says, even if Hoover “was, as they say, straight as an arrow…[his] treatment and targeting of gays would still make sense to us given the era and the larger historical, political, social, and cultural forces at play.” For a thorough treatment of those forces, Hoover’s War on Gays will likely remain unsurpassed.

In the 20th Century - exposing someone as being gay - would destroy that person’s life, by ruining his career and reputation. For gay people there was much to fear, this was especially true in the 1950s, when J. Edgar Hoover joined forces with US Senator Joseph McCarthy’s witch hunt for homosexuals known as the Lavender Scare, which was closely alined with the Red Scare the witch hunt for communists all considered to a threat to national security. However, the US public attacks on gay people was an exploitive tactic of Hoover and McCarthy used to further their hold on power and fame that terrorized the nation from coast to coast. Again, these two aggressive political people, followed the same tactics that Hitler and Nazi regime used, two decades earlier in the 1930s and 1940s, - to their rise to power by exploiting the ignorance and fear of the antigay prejudices of people at the grassroots of society that caused the atrocities of the deaths of 70 million people by the end of WWII.
“These People Are Frightened to Death”
Congressional Investigations and the Lavender Scare
Summer 2016
The Red Scare, the congressional witch-hunt against Communists during the early years of the Cold War, is a well-known chapter of American history. A second scare of the same era has been much slower to make its way into public consciousness, even though it lasted far longer and directly impacted many more lives.
Beginning in the late 1940s and continuing through the 1960s, thousands of gay employees were fired or forced to resign from the federal workforce because of their sexuality. Dubbed the Lavender Scare, this wave of repression was also bound up with anti-Communism and fueled by the power of congressional investigation… Read more: https://www.archives.gov/publications/prologue/2016/summer/lavender.html
A New Opera Illuminates The 'Lavender Scare,' A Little-Explored Era In Gay History
June 18, 2016 - NPR
In the 1950s, as members of Congress were rooting out suspected communists in government and Hollywood, they broadened their search to include homosexuals and lesbians, under the theory that closeted gays could be more easily blackmailed into revealing government secrets. That crusade, dubbed the "lavender scare," is at the center of Fellow Travelers, a new stage production that received its world premiere last night at Cincinnati Opera.
The show is based on a historical novel of the same name, written by Thomas Mallon. Mallon defies stererotyping: He's devoutly Catholic, fiercely conservative, and gay. And he shares those traits with Timothy Laughlin, one of the two main characters in his book…
During the McCarthy era, anything connected with homosexuality could lead to scandal. Mallon points to the example of Lester Hunt, a real-life senator from Wyoming who committed suicide in his office after the arrest of his son for allegedly soliciting gay sex in Lafayette Square. (Author Alan Drury took pieces of the Lester Hunt story and used them in his Pulitzer Prize-winning novel Advise and Consent.)…
…”It was hard for me to understand what it would have been like to be fighting Communism and to be Catholic and to also be gay in 1950s D.C., and so I was intrigued by the characters," Spears says.
The story's two protagonists are gay men who have to hide their love. One of them winds up marrying a woman to advance his career. To convey the emotions of a time when gay love was "forbidden" love, Spears went back even further for inspiration: to troubadour music from the Middle Ages, which, he says, is "music that really is about unrequited love, courtly love, impossible love.”…

The Lavender Scare
The Lavender Scare is the first documentary film to tell the little-known story of an unrelenting campaign by the federal government to identify and fire all employees suspected of being homosexual.
In 1953, President Eisenhower declared gay men and lesbians to be a threat to the security of the country and therefore unfit for government service.
In doing so, he triggered the longest witch hunt in American history.
Over the next four decades, tens of thousands of government workers would lose their jobs for no reason other than their sexual orientation.
But the actions of the government had an unintended effect. They inadvertently helped ignite the gay rights movement.
In 1957, after thousands had lost their jobs, a Harvard-trained astronomer named Frank Kameny became the first person to fight his dismissal. His attempts to regain his job evolved into a lifelong fight for the rights of LGBT people.
The Lavender Scare is a compelling story of one man’s fight for justice. And it is a chilling reminder of how easy it can be, during a time of fear and uncertainty, to trample the rights of an entire class of people in the name of patriotism and national security… Read more - view video clips: https://www.thelavenderscare.com/t

Homosexuality and Psychological Maladjustment
For Dr. Evelyn Hooker, who was at the UCLA , in the 1950s. Hoover’s and McCarthy’s national terrorizing witch hunts for homosexuals, appears to have been a flashback for her re-experiencing, the same terrorizing exploitive antigay tactics of Hitler, while she was in Berlin, Germany on a fellowship from 1937-1938, living with a Jewish family that after returning to the US, she later learned they were all killed in a concentration camp. Her flashback was the motivating force that led her to begin her ground breaking research (1957) "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 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evelyn_Hooker)." She deactivated the end of the exploitive abuse of the ignorance and fear of societal antigay prejudices - by proving that homosexuality is not a mental illness. Thus ending the false linking of homosexuality with child abuse that has been well established within the overwhelming research that followed in the wake of Dr. Hooker’s research of 1957. Photo
The myth buster
February 2011
Evelyn Hooker’s groundbreaking research exploded the notion that homosexuality was a mental illness, ultimately removing it from the DSM.
In 1953, Evelyn Hooker, PhD, applied for a National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) grant to conduct research on “normal homosexuals.” During this period of American history, Sen. Joseph McCarthy was seeking out communists wherever he suspected they might be lurking; homosexual acts were a crime; bomb shelters were springing up in backyards; and the term “normal” homosexual was thought to be an oxymoron. A variety of medical and psychological treatments to “cure” homosexuality were employed, including ice pick lobotomies, electroshock, chemical castration with hormonal treatment or aversive conditioning. Gay parties were raided by the police, particularly in election years when a crackdown on “sexual perversion” was seen as a positive step in the fight on crime…
Humble beginnings
Evelyn Hooker was born Evelyn Gentry Sept. 2, 1907 in North Platte, Neb., the sixth of nine children. Photos of her as a school child show that she towered above most of her classmates; she was nearly 6 feet tall as an adult. Her family was quite poor, and neither parent was educated past fourth grade. Her adolescence was colored by these social stigmata; she attributed her study of “an oppressed, deprived people,” (homosexual men) to her early experience (Garnets & Kimmel, 2003, p. 36). After earning her bachelor’s and master’s degrees at the University of Colorado with Karl Muenzinger, she aspired to earn a doctorate at Yale, but the department chair at Colorado refused to recommend a woman to his alma mater. Instead, she completed her doctorate in experimental psychology at Johns Hopkins University in 1932, studying vicarious trial-and-error learning in rats. A fellowship in 1937–38 took her to Berlin to pursue her increasing interest in clinical psychology at the Institute for Psychotherapy. She lived with a Jewish family and witnessed, with dismay, Hitler’s rise to power. Much later, after her return to the United States, she learned that all members of her host family perished in the concentration camps…
Back in California, now happily married and without heavy teaching commitments, Evelyn Hooker returned to her research on gay men. She decided that her previous interviews were not useful; they had not been planned carefully enough. So, she decided to apply for a grant from NIMH. The chief of the grants division, John Eberhart, flew out to interview her to see who this woman was who claimed she had access to any number of gay men who were neither psychiatric patients nor prisoners. He told her, given the climate of McCarthyism, everyone was being investigated and if she got the grant, “you won’t know why and we won’t know why” (1993, p. 450). (Eberhart later told Hooker that her project was derisively referred to as “The Fairy Project” by some federal officials in Washington.) Funding was granted and Hooker embarked on her study…
…Hooker reported that one of the most exciting days of her life was the day she presented the results of her research at APA’s 1956 Annual Convention in Chicago. This ground-breaking research and the work that followed on the homosexual subculture led to Hooker’s award in 1992 for Distinguished Contribution to Psychology in the Public Interest from APA. In her response to this honor, she shared the award with the gay and lesbian community and expressed pleasure that her research and her “long advocacy of a scientific view of homosexuality” could make their lives and the lives of their families better. She closed her address by reading from a letter she had received from a gay man thanking her for her work and saying, “I think you did it because you knew what love was when you saw it, and you knew that gay love was like all other love.”

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...

Curia & Hierarchy
Repressed Homosexuals/Closeted Life
Psychologically Unhealthy
.
by Richard Isay MD, 1996
“Becoming Gay” answers those whose approach to homosexuality is summed up in the phrase “don’t ask, don’t tell.” Isay argues that a closeted life is psychologically unhealthy. Instead, he offers gay men a model for achieving a positive gay identity. His most recent book, Commitment and Healing, is the capstone to Isay’s nearly 30 years of treating gay men. He’s convinced that while sustaining committed relationships is difficult for all couples, gay men find it especially so.
Too many gay men have given up on the idea that sustained intimacy is either possible or desirable, Isay argues. He is skeptical of the claims made by many gay men that long-term committed relationships are restrictive and “undemocratic.” These are the justifications, he argues, “of men whose history of parental and social rejection has made it especially difficult for them to develop trust that their needs will be met.”… Read more: Photo

January 7, 2015
...In the interview, Burke also blamed gay clergy for the church’s sexual abuse crisis, saying priests “who were feminized and confused about their own sexual identity” were the ones who molested children.
Researchers have disputed that claim, and experts note that the reported rise in the number of gay men entering the priesthood since the 1980s coincided with a sharp drop-off in abuse cases…
John Jay College of Criminal Justice - 5-Year Study by American Bishops – Roman Catholic Church Sex Abuse Cases - May 18, 2011
...Since the scandal broke, conservatives in the church have blamed gay priests for perpetrating the abuse, while liberals have argued that the all-male, celibate culture of the priesthood was the cause. This report will satisfy neither flank.
The report notes that homosexual men began entering the seminaries “in noticeable numbers” from the late 1970s through the 1980s. By the time this cohort entered the priesthood, in the mid-1980s, the reports of sexual abuse of minors by priests began to drop and then to level off. If anything, the report says, the abuse decreased as more gay priests began serving the church... http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/r/roman_catholic_church_sex_abuse_cases/index.html

However, the members of the curia and hierarchy have even to the present time, continued to maintained this false linkage of homosexuality with child sexual abuse that was started beginning in the 1930s - by Hitler and the Nazi regime. I suggest that such false accusations made by the curia and hierarchy - be made pubic and then taken directly to civil court, however, the members of the curia and hierarchy - never openly will make public such blatant false accusations. They choose just to make this false linkage known through rumors in order to destroy a person reputation, especially to attack gay priests. These members of the curia and their clergy supporters, including local bishops - need to be publicly exposed and should be immediately removed from the priesthood. Because they keep alive the ignorance and fears of homosexuality at the grassroots of societies that keeps the political exploitive use of antigay societal prejudices a viable vehicle for far less scrupulous people i.e. Hitler, to gain power over others that threatens the lives of millions of people, globally. Exposing the members of the curia and the hierarchy and the local bishops, who continue to make this false linkage - would most importantly prevent the pervasive destruction of not only a gay person’s life, but the lives of many others, and in some cases the lives of millions of people that result from the unnatural forced suppression of a gay child’s sexual orientation, as directed in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. A vivid example of this devastating destruction of peoples' lives - is observable in learning the facts how and when the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy came to be inundated with repressed homosexual men and that these men appear to be incapable of loving others the way Christ has loved us.
American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
Conversion Therapy
Approved by Council February 2018
The AACAP Policy on “Conversion Therapies”
The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry finds no evidence to support the application of any “therapeutic intervention” operating under the premise that a specific sexual orientation, gender identity, and/or gender expression is pathological. Furthermore, based on the scientific evidence, the AACAP asserts that such “conversion therapies” (or other interventions imposed with the intent of promoting a particular sexual orientation and/or gender as a preferred outcome) lack scientific credibility and clinical utility. Additionally, there is evidence that such interventions are harmful. As a result, “conversion therapies” should not be part of any behavioral health treatment of children and adolescents. However, this in no way detracts from the standard of care which requires that clinicians facilitate the developmentally appropriate, open exploration of sexual orientation, gender identity, and/or gender expression, without any pre-determined outcome…. Read more: https://www.aacap.org/AACAP/Policy_Statements/2018/Conversion_Therapy.aspx
All the major medical and mental health associations accepted the gay sexual orientation, as a positive, normal and natural variation of human sexuality. They also list the lifelong harmful effects caused by the forced suppression of a gay child’s sexual orientation, placing the child’s at risk of experiencing severe depression, suicidal ideation and vulnerable to additive behaviors that are all life-threatening. Also, the RC Catechism forces the suppression of a gay child’s sexual orientation, that fosters dissociative sexual acting out behaviors, especially during mid to late adolescence years. This dissociative acting out behavior during adolescence is never with a young child - but with a teenager close in age. However, this form of sexual acting out is not consciously perceived as such by the adolescent, because he has been forced during his early childhood years, as young as, 4 and 5 years of age - in ways that are traumatizing to the child on multiple levels - to suppress all outside behavioral gestures that are perceived to be gay. First, a child as young as 4 and 5 years of age - has no concept of an adult's understanding of human sexuality. Second, therefore this child is deeply hurt - to the point being overwhelmed by what the child perceives as being rejected abandoned by his parents, which for a child is a fate worst than death. Third, not only does a child at this very young age not have any conception of what gay means, but this child is being forced to suppress a bodily functioning, like the heart beating or our breathing, that he has no conscious control over. Fourth, this situation is exceedingly overwhelming for a child, at some point the child's built-in safety mechanism will automatically allowed the child to forget this traumatizing event that is - to dissociate from this event or situation. This dissociated behavior will likely continue keeping the child separated from any understanding of the functioning of his sexuality. Background clinical research information regarding the 24/7 functioning of sexual orientation is not under our conscious control it is under the control of the Autonomic Nervous System - is listed above under the title:
All will be fine for this gay child until he reaches to age of puberty, when his sexuality will come bursting forth, however, his dissociation from his sexuality will continue, but these new physical sexual feelings, not being appropriately identified, by his parents or sociality, his sexual acting out will be under a disguise form. Therefore, in this dissociated state of mind - any inappropriate sexual acting out behavior is not fully understood nor is it willfully intended. In addition, the gay adolescent is not only in deep denial about his sexuality, but he also has no concept of gay adult sexual behavior or cognizance that gay adult sexual behavior even exists. Therefore, his disguised form of sexually acting out will not be at the level of gay adult sexuality, but it would in no way resemble any form of pedophilia, because even in his dissociated state of mind his sexual attraction and preference is revealed to be for members of the same-sex, close to his age and older. Those people who would willfully attempt to make unsubstantiated claims of wrongly connecting such dissociated adolescent disguised acting out occurrence as a form of child abuse - need to be identified and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Because this is the covert strategy used by Hitler and the Nazi regime of falsely connected to homosexuality in order to be assured of the effectiveness of their exploitation of antigay prejudices of Germany - as a smokescreen to cover-up their removal, silencing and massacre of those who were perceived as a threat to Hitler's authority or the implementation the racial policies of the ideology of nazism - of removing those classified as subhumans.
This disguised form of sexually acting out in his adolescence years - would be limited to a one time occurrence, because any additional occurrences would threaten his dissociation and denial of his gay sexuality. Because any full realization that he is gay would leave this gay person completely distraught overwhelmed with anxiety and the possibility of a clinical life-threatening depression may ensue.

In addition, the gay adolescent is not only in deep denial about his sexuality, but he also has no concept of gay adult sexual behavior or cognizance that gay adult sexual behavior even exists. Therefore, his disguised form of sexually acting out will not be at the level of gay adult sexuality, but it would in no way resemble any form of pedophilia, because even in his dissociated state of mind his sexual attraction and preference is revealed to be for members of the same-sex, close to his age and older. Those people who would willfully attempt to make unsubstantiated claims of wrongly connecting such dissociated adolescent disguised acting out occurrence as a form of child abuse - need to be identified and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Because this is the covert strategy used by Hitler and the Nazi regime of falsely connected to homosexuality in order to be assured of the effectiveness of their exploitation of antigay prejudices of Germany - as a smokescreen to cover-up their removal, silencing and massacre of those who were perceived as a threat to Hitler's authority or the implementation the racial policies of the ideology of nazism - of removing those classified as subhumans.
This disguised form of sexually acting out in his adolescence years - would be limited to a one time occurrence, because any additional occurrences would threaten his dissociation and denial of his gay sexuality. Because any full realization that he is gay would leave this gay person completely distraught overwhelmed with anxiety and the possibility of a clinical life-threatening depression may ensue.
This gay dissociated state of mind is explained in greater detail by Harry Stack Sullivan MD, found in the book titled "Dissociative Processes, Clinical Studies on Psychiatry (1956)." It is the utmost inhumane brutality that the Catechism of the Catholic Church on homosexuality, (is unsubstantiated due to the absence of the science on homosexuality) - causes the fierce suppression of a gay child’s sexual orientation, which is forcing the gay child to suppress his sexual orientation that functions 24/7 outside a person conscious awareness, like the heart beating or our breathing. As described above - dissociation behavior is likely to occur and when the gay child as teenager acts out sexually with a teenager close in age and then is blamed as a sex abusers, by the uniformed members of the curia and hierarchy. Who is the blame for this tragedy??? The cruelty is the fact that this gay teenager being faithful to the RC Catechism is what caused a dissociation, a mental disorder and then not willfully or ever fully consciously aware of acting out - is being punished for being faithful in following the Catechism. Now, the curia and the hierarchy are repressed homosexuals themselves, were not picked because of any intellectual ability, but only because their rigidly to doctrine, especially of homosexuality, - they haven’t got a clue of what is going on.

Understanding normal development of adolescent sexuality: A bumpy ride
J Hum Reprod Sci. 2015 Apr-Jun; 8(2): 70–74.
Abstract
Adolescence, derived from the Latin word “adolescere” meaning “to grow up” is a critical developmental period. During adolescence, major biological as well as psychological developments take place. Development of sexuality is an important bio-psycho-social development, which takes an adult shape during this period. During adolescence, an individual's thought, perception as well as response gets colored sexually. Puberty is an important landmark of sexuality development that occurs in the adolescence. The myriad of changes that occurs in adolescents puts them under enormous stress, which may have adverse physical, as well as psychological consequences. Understanding adolescent sexuality has important clinical, legal, social, cultural, as well as educational implications… Read more: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4477452/
Adolescent Sexuality: Talk the Talk Before They Walk the Walk
Adolescence can be tough enough to get through without questions of sex, sexuality, and sexual identity. But adolescents are humans, too — no matter how alien they may seem to their parents at times. Openly addressing the all-too-human questions of sexual development, sexual desire, and the nature of the adolescent’s developing sexual identity are critical. Sharing factual information with and giving good moral guidance to your teenager is a vitally important part of helping your teen understand herself or himself. It can help your child avoid devastating, and possibly life-threatening, errors in judgment.
“Above all, it is critical that parents be truthful, honest, and available to their children,” says Charles R. Wibbelsman, M.D., FAAP, Chief of Adolescent Medicine at Kaiser Permanente in San Francisco and a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics’ Committee on Adolescence.
“Parents often have their own agenda — don’t do this and don’t do that. But they need to take a step back and leave the judgments aside for this discussion,” says Warren Seigel, M.D., FAAP, Chairman of the Pediatrics Department and Director of Adolescent Medicine at Coney Island Hospital, Brooklyn, N.Y. “The most appropriate and important thing for a parent and a child or adolescent in dealing with questions about sexuality and sexual health is an open channel of communication.”… Read more: https://www.healthychildren.org/English/ages-stages/teen/dating-sex/Pages/Adolescent-Sexuality-Talk-the-Talk-Before-They-Walk-the-Walk.aspx
Pope Francis, by his day to day example of empathic caring for the poor and commitment to the truth that has been the foundation of the Catholic Faith, which is the normal expected behavior of all Catholics, he unintentionally established a sharp contrast that exposed the decades of the curia’s and hierarchy’s sheer absence of any empathic caring as demonstrated by their fierce disregard for truth - obsessively refusing to acknowledge the science on homosexuality, perpetuating, year after year, the violence by the absence of this science that is vital to the lives of millions of children - by forcefully silencing and removing anyone who openly discussed it (cf. Hunthausen Affair, T. P. Schilling, 2003).

The curia’s ongoing 30 some years of disregarding of the science on homosexuality created a “domino effect” (or chain reaction is the cumulative effect produced when one event sets off a chain of similar events) that has:
(1) yearly - seriously harmed millions of children’s lives (e.g. curia & hierarchy),
(2) exacerbated the child sexual abuse crisis
- - (a) by ordering the cover-ups,
- - (b) in their panic to avoid public outraged at US revelation 2002 child sexual abuse cover-ups that they had ordered - they immediately began scapegoating gay people by erroneously equating homosexuality with pedophilia, when there is no connection,
- - (c) they deliberately began accusing gay priests to give
the false public impression that they were cracking down on the child sexual abuse, however, this was only a hoax of the curia,
- - - - (i) that did nothing to help the child sexual abuse cases, it left children unprotected and allowed the true pedophiles to continued,
- - - - (ii) it wrongly accused gay priests who were not pedophiles,
- - - - (iii) destroying the lives of these gay priests
- - - - (iv) who were blamed by the curia, CDF, for an adolescent acting out situation that was directly caused by the curia’s and the CDF’s obsessive suppression of the science on homosexuality,
- - - - (v) that was neither an adolescent - act of pedophilia nor an act of adult sexuality,
- - - - (vi) it was an isolated incident that was directly
caused by the Catholic Catechism's unsubstantiated teaching on homosexuality that
- - - - (vii) influenced the traumatic parental forced suppression of a gay child’s sexual orientation during early childhood years growing up gay that
- - - - (viii) caused the child to dissociate from his gay
sexual orientation that last
- - - - (ix) until confusion sets in when the gay child reaches the age of PUBERTY, as it is for all teenager - an explosion of major growth occurs that is, physical, sexually, emotionally, & cognitively, “At no other time except infancy do human beings pack so much development into such a short period
(https://www.jhsph.edu/research/centers-and-institutes/center-for-adolescent-health/_docs/TTYE-Guide.pdf),” through this myriad of changes occurring in adolescents during this short period of time “puts them under enormous stress, which may have adverse physical, as well as psychological consequences (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4477452/)”
…Research shows that providing accurate, objective information to adolescents supports healthy sexual development.
All young people need to learn to be comfortable with their sexuality. is task may be especially challenging for teens who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender. These young people often feel worlds apart from their heterosexual peers, family, or members of their community, and they need support from adults more than ever…
...Regardless of how young people come to be gay, lesbian or bisexual, it is essential that these youth be loved and cared for during this time of exploring their sexual identity. Perhaps because of the stigma they face, sexual-minority youth are at higher risk than their heterosexual peers for substance abuse, early onset of intercourse, unintended that come with puberty…

My One Single Minded Aim
is not to intentionally hurt anyone.
It is the same one that I felt moral obligated to risk my whole life by "coming out" March 1997.
Once I professionally and personally learned from the combined knowledge of Science and Religion on subject Homosexuality of how -
severely children as young as 4 and 5 years of age - growing-up gay are victimized by
the lifelong harmful effects caused by the influence of the unsubstantiated antigay social and religious norms that led to the forced suppression of their gay sexual orientation - I could not turn my back on defenseless children, especially being a priest I knew only too well that my number one moral obligation was to be willing to give my life, for the protection of children.
This is a brief outline of a situation that took nearly 10 years of continuous investigating research to develop to this point. It is just a little more than skimming the surface of an extremely complex situation existing on multiple levels. It is just the tip of the iceberg, nevertheless - it identifies the fact, the reality that there exists a specific type of iceberg, one that is composed of predominantly repressed homosexuals prelates of the Vatican - who have streams of violent waves of hate disguised as LOVE - spurting out - stemming directly from their fiercely denied - endless ongoing intense homoerotic feelings of sexual arousal from their own individual personal "deep seated homosexual tendencies." Then In unison, of a forceful collective chorus - of self-righteous denial, of their unacknowledged homoerotic feelings, as if sung by a choir, - they employ the defense of “projective identification” to lessen their overwhelming anxiety of being homosexual, by accusing other people - especially “gay priests” of having their homosexual feelings. Next, they then begin treating these people as if they are truly having homosexual feelings, but these people are not. Yes, it is a twisted form of groupthink that from this delusional state of mind they have ruled the Church that has been and is monumentally destructive to humanity, of which they remain completely oblivious about - just like the two aunts from the movie “Arsenic and Old Lace" regarding the 12 murders the aunts had committed and buried the bodies in their cellar and being separated lightyears from sanity reality they twistily believe that their murderous actions constitutes the semblance of a charity.
Through the Holy Spirit, a pilot light of the presence of Christ among a small group of prelates, burns brightly and - elected Pope Francis to the papacy, just in time for him to grab hold of the stern of the ship - steering the rudder of the ship away from disaster. Those who complained that the - Church under Francis is a 'ship without a rudder’, are those who are suffering from the DTs, the withdrawal symptoms from an addiction. “Delirium tremens (DTs) is a rapid onset of confusion usually caused by withdrawal from alcohol.” In truth we are only free to love God, to love what is good - anything else we love more than God - will only enslave us - like any addiction.”
Pope Francis immediately steered the ship off it’s delusional moral course and back into the reality of Christ’s love - following the moral course that Christ has given to us all - that we are to love one another as He has loved us. Pope Francis ask of us - no more and no less than what Christ commanded of us all:
“A new command
I give you:
Love one another.
As I have loved you,
so you must
love one another.
By this everyone will know that
you are my disciples,
if you love one another.”
John 13:34-35
To Make Judgments at this point is useless and will do more harm than good. There are a ton of unanswered questions that need to be answered. This research investigation is far from being over.

Pope Francis warns of two paths to holiness
May 10, 2018
…Francis reminds us how Jesus showed us the face of God "in every one of our brothers and sisters, especially the least, the most vulnerable, the defenseless and those in need." Loving our Lord and our neighbor is what Christianity is all about, a point missed by Gnostics and Pelagians alike…
ARGENTINE SPORTS CHANNEL MAKES FUN OF RUSSIA’S ‘GAY PROPAGANDA’ BAN AHEAD OF WORLD CUP - 5/10/18
As Russia gears up to host the World Cup this summer, an Argentine sports channel aired a TV commercial mocking President Vladimir Putin’s “gay propaganda” ban.
The ad TyC Sports launched Thursday addresses Putin’s draconian crackdown on gay “propaganda” with humor using double entendres, as the commercial shows soccer fans’ reactions over typical situations such as celebrating a goal or protesting a referee’s decision. “Mr. Putin, we found out that your country does not admit displays of love among men. So we are in trouble!”
The commercial shows a man weeping over the farewell of a soccer player on TV, saying, “We come from a country where it’s normal to see a man cry over another man.”… Read more: Newsweek http://www.newsweek.com/argentine-sports-channel-makes-fun-russias-gay-propaganda-ban-ahead-world-cup-920728

The Absence of
Parental Love
…The forced suppression of a gay child’s sexual orientation during early childhood years growing up —- this is the problem. This is the absence of parental love that is the problem. It is this heinous form of child abuse that is the problem - supported and promoted by - the negligence of the complete absence of the science on homosexuality in the Catechism of the Catholic Church regarding homosexuality. It kills human bonding that develops human EMPATHY!!! It kills LOVE!!! It promotes hatred - a never ending hatred - gives license - to be as mean as you can be - for as long as you want!!! All because this child was not loved!!! It is the never ending story of child abuse -- the mutilation of a child's spirit!!!

The Presence of
Parental Love
Written by - Diane Warren - to honor her father
Sung by - Celine Dion
For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
You gave me faith 'cause you
believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

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.

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 AssociationNational 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.

Re-education Clinics - of homosexual sexual orientation
QUACKS: 'Conversion Therapists,' the Anti-LGBT Right, and the Demonization of Homosexuality
May 25, 2016
This is a report about junk science and some of the people who propagate it. It is not about silly, perhaps amusing theories about ESP or life on the moon or even purported miracle cures for cancer. The “science” examined here actively harms people, leading with grim regularity to suicide, depression and an array of self-destructive behaviors. It demeans, defames and defrauds human beings, typically at their most vulnerable moments. And, as if that weren’t enough, it regularly lays the blame for the alleged malady of homosexuality at the feet of gay people’s parents, despite the fact that they are wholly innocent.
Executive Summary
Will standing in a circle of naked men deep in the woods turn gay men straight? Is disrobing in front of a mirror alone with your therapist and then touching “your masculinity” a cure for homosexuality? Does beating a pillow representing your mother really help develop “healthy” relationships with other men?
The men and women who people this industry known as “conversion,” “reparative” or “ex-gay” therapists are like modern-day phrenologists, the “experts” beloved by the Naziswho thought they could identify inferior human beings by measuring their subjects’ skulls. They employ theories that have been thoroughly debunked by virtually all relevant medical associations. They cite bizarre studies that were shot down decades ago as key documents. They use techniques that were described in court by one expert as “worse than snake oil.” They are quacks.
Many of them are doubtless sincere. Some describe their own struggles with “unwanted same-sex attractions.” But sincere or not, the promotion of conversion therapy has a cynical side. If being gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender is merely a chosen behavior, one that can be “fixed” with the right mental health treatment, then criticizing LGBT people for their sexual choices is akin to simply criticizing bad behavior. Unlike attacking someone for their skin color, reparative therapists can condemn the gay “lifestyle” and still claim that they are not LGBT-hating bigots.
The real science is perfectly clear. A consensus of the vast majority of psychiatrists, psychologists and other counselors and their professional organizations agree that homosexuality is a normal variation of human sexuality. Likewise, they condemn reparative therapy and other attempts to change sexual orientation…

Fr. Marty Kurylowicz - June 9, 2017
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.

Killing Empathy
Creating Narcissists
i.e. Curia & Hierarchy
October 01, 2004 | Cultural Psychiatry, Dissociative Identity Disorder
By Jack Drescher, MD
In the jargon of contemporary homosexual culture, those who hide their sexual identities are referred to as either closeted or said to be in the closet. Revealing one's homosexuality is referred to as coming out. Clinical experience with gay patients reveals hiding and revealing behaviors to be psychologically complex.
Homosexual Identities
In the developmental histories of gay men and women, periods of difficulty in acknowledging their homosexuality, either to themselves or to others, are often reported. Children who grow up to be gay rarely receive family support in dealing with antihomosexual prejudices. On the contrary, beginning in childhood--and distinguishing them from racial and ethnic minorities--gay people are often subjected to the antihomosexual attitudes of their own families and communities (Drescher et al., 2004). Antihomosexual attitudes include homophobia (Weinberg, 1972), heterosexism (Herek, 1984), moral condemnations of homosexuality (Drescher, 1998) and antigay violence (Herek and Berrill, 1992). Hiding activities learned in childhood often persist into young adulthood, middle age and even senescence, leading many gay people to conceal important aspects of themselves…
Dissociation
What psychological mechanisms facilitate separating one's sexual identity from the rest of one's persona? Sullivan's (1956) concept of dissociation may be illuminating, particularly its most common aspect: selective inattention. A ubiquitous, nonpathological process, selective inattention makes life more manageable, like tuning out the background noise on a busy street. However, through dissociation of anxiety-provoking knowledge about the self, a whole double life can be lived and yet, in some ways, not be known. Clinical presentations of closeted gay people may lie somewhere in severity between selective inattention--most commonly seen in the case of homosexually self-aware patients thinking about "the possibility" that they might be gay--to more severe dissociation--in which any hint of same-sex feelings resides totally out of conscious awareness. More severe forms of dissociation are commonly observed in married men who are homosexually self-aware but cannot permit the thought of themselves as gay (Roughton, 2002).

17 Antigay Leaders Exposed as Gay or Bi
- January 27, 2016
- January 27, 2016
The internet was buzzing in January when an editor at a gay website in Virginia wrote that he'd encountered an antigay Republican lawmaker while on Grindr, without naming the person. Not every antigay crackpot is actually gay, but there's no shortage of those who actually are. Here are some hypocrites who just couldn't practice what they preached…
A child’s sexual orientation is not about sexual behavior - it is about love, wanting to feel one with another. Depending on the severity of this rejection of a child’s expression of love - the child wants to desperately please his parents and will learn to hid from his parent such emotions of love that are disturbing to them. He will even hide them from himself and thus begins the mental dissociation of this child - attempting to suppress the never ending - regular functioning of his sexual orientation of the emotional impulses - to be loved and to love and to feel one with another
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#cite_note-Human_Physiology_-_Janig-2
However, as explained above - a person’s sexual orientation like the heart beating, breathing, sexual arousal, etc., are all under the control autonomic nervous system that operates automatically and unconsciously - they cannot be suppressed.Photo
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…
“Brokeback Mountain” 2005
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

Start spreading the news,
I'm leaving today.
I want to be a part of it, New York, New York.
These vagabond shoes,
Are longing to stray,
And make a brand new start of it
New York, New York
I want to wake up in the city that doesn’t sleeps,
To find I'm king of the hill, top of the heap.
These little town blues,
Are melting away.
I'll make a brand new start of it,
In old New York.
If I can make it there,
I'll make it anywhere,
It's up to you, New York, New York.
New York, New York.
I want to wake up, in the city that doesn’t sleeps
To find I'm king of the hill, top of the heap
Crème of the crop and the top of the heap.
My little town blues
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it,
In old New York.
If I can make it there,
I'll make it anywhere,
Come on, Come though, New York, New York. https://www.stlyrics.com/songs/l/lizaminnelli20267/newyorknewyork538512.html
Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me.
