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
I S O L A T I O N.
Pope John Paul II - 1988
Science +
+ Religion = Truth = LOVE
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…

Gay man: Pope told me 'God made you like that'

‘God Made You This Way,’ Pope Is Said to Have Told Gay Man
May 21, 2018
ROME — A Chilean survivor of clerical sex abuse has said that Pope Francis told him in a private meeting this month that God had made him gay and that both God and the pontiff loved him that way, a remarkable expression of inclusion for the leader of the Roman Catholic Church.
“He said to me, ‘Juan Carlos that’s not a problem,’ ” said Juan Carlos Cruz, the abuse survivor, describing having told the pope he was gay in a long meeting in the Vatican. “You have to be happy with who you are. God made you this way and loves you this way, and the pope loves you this way.” …
…Mr. Cruz had already said that Francis had apologized in the meeting for the large-scale sexual abuse scandal involving Chilean clergy members… Mr. Cruz, through tears, explained that he had told Francis in their nearly three- hour private meeting that he had maintained his Catholic faith even though Chilean bishops had apparently told the pope that he had left the church “for a life of perversion.”
…During a trip to Chile this year, the pope repeatedly defended a Chilean bishop against accusations of a cover-up. Francis called the claims of abuse survivors “calumny.”
The resulting backlash forced him to send the Vatican’s top sex-crimes investigator to Chile. He returned with a scathing, 2,300-page report that suggested that bishops there had misled the pope and destroyed records to prevent the public from learning that abusive priests had been moved from diocese to diocese. Francis said the systemic failures had left him “perplexed and ashamed.”
…Mr. Cruz said that his lawyer warned him in 2009 that the church would focus on his homosexuality, leaving him vulnerable and threatening to make life extremely difficult for him.
He said that his lawyer later told him that Cardinal Francisco Javier Errázuriz, a confidant of Francis, had raised the question of whether Mr. Cruz could even be considered a victim because, Mr. Cruz said, “I was gay and I might have liked it.”
“It was horrible,” he added. “This has always weighed on me.”
In his meeting with Francis on a Sunday at his Santa Marta residence, Mr. Cruz said he had told the pope that he was worried he would think less of him. Mr. Cruz acknowledged that he was gay and, jokingly, not the reincarnation of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga, a model of the virtue of purity, but someone who tried to be “a good person.” Read more: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/21/world/europe/pope-francis-gays-god-made-you-this-way-.html

‘Ignoring one problem and Creating another’
“Simply put, being gay does

Bertone - Pope's No. 2: Sex Abuse Tied to Homosexuality - Santiago, Chile
April 12, 2010
The Vatican's second-highest authority says the sex scandals haunting the Roman Catholic Church are linked to homosexuality and not celibacy among priests.
Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the Vatican's secretary of state, made the comments during a news conference Monday in Chile, where one of the church's highest-profile pedophile cases involves a priest having sex with young girls.
"Many psychologists and psychiatrists have demonstrated that there is no relation between celibacy and pedophilia. But many others have demonstrated, I have been told recently, that there is a relation between homosexuality and pedophilia. That is true," said Bertone. "That is the problem."
His comments drew angry reactions from Chile's gay rights advocates.
"Neither Bertone nor the Vatican has the moral authority to give lessons on sexuality," said Rolando Jimenez, president of the Movement for Homosexual Integration and Liberation in Chile.
Jimenez also said no reputable study exists to support the cardinal's claims.
"This is a perverse strategy by the Vatican to shirk its own ethical and legal responsibility by making a spurious and disgusting connection," he said.
That sentiment was echoed by international rights groups in the United States, reports CBS News correspondent Elaine Quijano.
"As reputable studies have proven and common sense bears out, there is no connection between gay people and pedophilia," Michael Cole of the Human Rights Campaign told CBS News in a written statement. "When the church makes gay people a scapegoat for pedophiles, it ignores one problem and creates another." Read more: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/popes-no-2-sex-abuse-tied-to-homosexuality/
It’s Not About Homosexuality: Blaming the Wrong People for the Sexual Abuse Crisis 06/14/2010
The comments from Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone this week linking homosexuality and pedophilia, and implicitly blaming gay priests for sexual abuse, came in the midst of the gravest crisis to face the Church in the last 100 years: the rising tide of revelations of the crimes of sexual abuse of children, primarily boys and adolescent males. In a news conference in Chile, Cardinal Bertone, the Vatican’s Secretary of State, said, “[M]any psychologists and psychiatrists have demonstrated that there is no relation between celibacy and pedophilia.” They do believe, however, “that there is a relation between homosexuality and pedophilia,” he said. “That is true. ... That is the problem.”
Cardinal Bertone’s comments are, to put it charitably, surprising, for several reasons.
First of all, nearly every reputable psychologist and psychiatrist definitively rejects the conflation of homosexuality with pedophilia, as well as any cause-and-effect relationship. The studies are almost too numerous to mention. Pedophilia, say experts, is more a question of a stunted (or arrested) sexuality, more a question of power, and more a question of proximity (among many other complicated psychological factors). Simply put, being gay does not make one a pedophile… Read more: https://www.huffingtonpost.com/rev-james-martin-sj/its-not-about-homosexuali_b_537810.html

Simon LeVay 1993
Simon LeVay 1993
Summary
Written with the same clarity, directness, and humor that have made Simon LeVay one of the most popular lecturers at Harvard Medical School and at the University of California, San Diego, The Sexual Brain examines the biological roots of human sexual behavior. It puts forward the compelling case that the diversity of human sexual feelings and behavior can best be understood in terms of the development, structure, and function of the brain circuits that produce them. Discarding all preconceptions about the motivation and purpose of sexuality, LeVay discusses the scientific evidence bearing on such questions as why we are sexual animals, what the brain mechanisms are that produce sexual behavior, how these mechanisms differ between men and women and how these differences develop, and finally, what determines a person's sexual orientation: genes, prenatal events, family environment, or early sexual experiences?
The Sexual Brain is broad in scope, covering evolutionary theory, molecular genetics, endocrinology, brain structure and function, cognitive psychology, and development. It is unified by LeVay's thesis that human sexual behavior, in all its diversity, is rooted in biological mechanisms that can be explored by laboratory science. The book does not shy away from the complexities of the field, but it can be readily appreciated and enjoyed by anyone with an intelligent interest in sex.
Simon LeVay - The Sexual Brain

___________________________________________
Thou, Nature, Art My Goddess
Genes, Environment, and Sex
There are two broad classes of ideas-two prejudices, if you like-that characterize people s attitude toward sexuality and its development. One is that we are all born with very similar brains. According to this prejudice, our individual sexual lives, both our inner lives of desires, inhibitions, and fulfillment, and our external life of sexual and reproductive activity, are molded by outside inputs to the brain: by our realization,from looking at our bodies as young children, of which sex we are, and by the influence of parents, family, teachers, sexual partners, and society in general. The opposite prejudice is that each person’s brain is preprogrammed to function in a characteristic sexual mode—male or female, gay or straight, promiscuous or celibate—and that these characteristics will emerge whatever the environment.
The conflict between these two points of view is an example of the age-old nature-versus-nurture controversy that has raged since before biology became a science. The extreme positions are of course untenable: genes cannot operate in a vacuum, nor can the environment mold a sentient, behaving being out of nothingness. But we are not concerned with extremes; we are concerned with the inborn differences between individuals that may reasonably exist, and the range of environments to which these individuals may reasonably be exposed. Within this more limited context the nature/nurture debate is still unresolved for most~aspects of human behavior, and it provides the appropriate framework to think about sex.
In my view, the scientific evidence presently available points to a strong influence of nature, and only a modest influence of nurture. This view conflicts with the. beliefs of most lay people, as well as many professionals, who generally place stress on external factors, such as the environment or family relations, as the determinants of a person's sexuality as well as other aspects of character and behavior…

Gay. Straight. and the Reason Why: The Science of Sexual Orientation 2011
by Simon LeVay
Neuroscientist Simon LeVay has served on the faculties of Harvard Medical School and the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, and is well-known for a 1991 study in which he reported on a difference in brain structure between gay and straight men. His forthcoming book Gay, Straight, and the Reason Why: The Science of Sexual Orientation examines the evidence that suggests sexual orientation results primarily from an interaction between genes, sex hormones, and the cells of the developing body and brain. In this original post, LeVay explains how he initially reacts to new reported findings in this field.

“Gay, Straight, and the Reason Why”: Where does homosexuality come from?
October 24, 2010
Excerpt:
What makes a person gay? Is it genetics, upbringing, or some combination of the two? Over the past few decades, a slew of scientific research has bolstered the notion that sexuality is, at least in part, innate. Studies of the sexual behavior of various animal species have shown that homosexuality is not just a human phenomenon. Then there is the curious finding that the number of older brothers a male has may biologically increase his chances of being gay.
Now Simon LeVay, a former Harvard neuroscientist, has written, "Gay, Straight, and the Reason Why: The Science of Sexual Orientation," a comprehensive, engaging and occasionally quite funny look at the current state of the research on the topic. LeVay is one of the leading authorities in the field: Back in 1991, he discovered that INAH3, a structure in the hypothalamus of the brain that helps to regulate sexual behavior, tended to be smaller in gay men than in straight men. It was a watershed moment in our understanding of sexual orientation (the study was published at the height of the AIDS epidemic, when the disease was widely regarded in religious circles as divine punishment for the sin of being gay) and the first scientific finding to support the idea that gayness might be more than just a lifestyle.
Salon spoke with LeVay over the phone from his home in West Hollywood about sexuality and the developing brain, gay sheep, and how science can help prevent anti-gay bullying.
Why do you think this debate is so important?
The fact is, a lot of anti-gay attitudes have been tied to the notion that homosexuality is a lifestyle choice. The biology tends to run against that, plus it's just absurd, because if it were a choice, people would remember making it -- and they don't. When people are talking about a lifestyle choice, well, of course it is a choice in the sense that people choose to make what they want out of these feelings of sexual attraction that they have. There are plenty of gay people who've gotten heterosexually married and had kids. Even Oscar Wilde did that. There are also plenty of straight people who engage in gay sex under certain circumstances.
But I don't think anyone chooses to experience the underlying attractions. At that level, I think the biologyreally argues against the point of view that the Christian right has presented, of homosexuality as being nothing more than straight people saying to themselves, "Oh, I think I'll try that gay thing this weekend." That's the sort of level that they sometimes want to reduce us to….

Gay. Straight. and the Reason Why: The Science of Sexual Orientation 2011
by Simon LeVay
by Simon LeVay
This is a chapter-by-chapter summary of my book, Gay, Straight, and the Reason Why: The Science of Sexual Orientation (Oxford University Press, 2011). Please see the book itself for a much more detailed account of the science, along with illustrations and over 600 references to the scientific literature.
Chapter 1: What is Sexual Orientation?
Sexual orientation has to do with the sex of persons that we find sexually attractive. In the most common usage, it’s defined as the trait that predisposes us to experience sexual attraction to people of the same sex as ourselves (homosexual, gay, or lesbian), to persons of the other sex (heterosexual, straight), or to both sexes (bisexual). Sexual orientation is often represented in terms of a graduated scale, such as the 7-point Kinsey scale, which ranges from 0 (exclusively attracted to persons of the opposite sex) to 6 (exclusively attracted to persons of the same sex), or a similar 5-point scale. This kind of classification emphasizes the commonality between heterosexual men and heterosexual women (because both are attracted to persons of the opposite sex) and between gay men and lesbians (because both are attracted to same-sex partners)…

Book Review
Journal American Medical Association
June 7, 2006—Vol 295, No. 21
Human Sexuality, second edition, by Simon LeVay and Sharon Valente, is an exceptional book that addresses nearly every aspect of sexuality from multiple theoretical, historical, and cultural perspectives. Valente holds a doctorate in counseling psychology and has taught human sexuality at the undergraduate level since the 1990s, while LeVay is an acclaimed neuroscientist who now devotes most of his time to writing about sexuality. Although their book is intended for an undergraduate course in sexuality, it is also eminently suitable for use in medical school and residency…
This book stands out because it goes beyond the standard material and presentation in several ways. The first chapter normalizes sexuality in the academic curriculum and demonstrates that many aspects of human sexuality are amenable to rational inquiry and critical analysis. This chapter lays down a model for thinking critically about the complex issues raised in the study of human sexuality. Biological issues are addressed next (eg, evolution, development, anatomy, and physiology), before moving on to biopsychosocial issues (eg, gender, attraction and arousal, relationships, sexuality across the lifespan). The origins of sexual orientations are explored in the chapter on sexual attraction and arousal, allowing a separate chapter, “Sexual Minorities,” to focus not on what causes people to become gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgendered but rather on the personal and social significance of belonging to such a group…
The study of human sexuality, like application of the biopsychosocial model in the practice of medicine, benefits from a broad perspective and an open mind. While this book does not deal explicitly with physician insensitivity and other barriers to health care faced by sexual minorities and individuals with sexual problems, it provides a solid foundation for understanding sexuality and offers a perspective that will serve medical students and health care professionals well in sensitively addressing the sexual concerns of their patients.

P R O J E C T I O N S
What this means is - that in the absence of factual data in the curia’s and hierarchy’s statements denouncing homosexuality - their statements are like perceptions of the inkblots given in a Rorschach test. Again, meaning instead of giving factual data, that is empirical data "verifiable by observation or experience rather than theory or pure logic" to support their subjective condemning statements about homosexuality, what they are actually giving, though, they believe iy to be factual data, is their own individual personal data, they are revealing their unconscious repressed homosexual thoughts and desires. Even more, in the way (the degree of emotional intensity or lack thereof) and what they say denouncing homosexuality they are revealing details of the particular antigay social environments where they grew-up and how severely they were traumatized, as children in their early childhood years by the lifelong harmful influenced of the respective antigay social and religious norms, that are being re-enacted in the present. They reveal much more about who they are individually, than they ever intended. Their obsessive antigay crusade, consisting of, though not limited to - their endless antigay derogatory statements, and interviews, i.e. “Preoccupation with Pelvic Issues” - are in reality are their projections of their own unconscious repressed homosexual “Preoccupation with Pelvic Issues.” This includes their obsessive condemnations of ADULT pornography, calling it a mortal sin - however, it is of no consequence to them that people are homeless and starving or of their malicious treatment used to silence Mr. Cruz from speaking out about the truth of the child sexual abuse of Chile.
The US Bishops in November 2015 approved a statement on pornography, however, because it is inclusive of the curia’s and hierarchy’s teachings on homosexuality, which are completely void of the science on homosexuality, it makes their statement as it is related to gay ADULT pornography - blasphemous, meaning it has nothing remotely to do with God.
This is because their statement on pornography is notbased on truth that it is the truth that comes from the dialogue between science and religion on the topic of homosexuality, as directed by Benedict XVI in Caritas in veritate (2009), and therefore it is not about love, though they obsessively peddle it as if it was coming from God and there is the blasphemy.
We can begin to observe how the meaning of love becomes so twisted around to mean the opposite. First. their teachings on homosexuality are not based on truth and therefore they are not about love. Second, their statement on pornography is equally not based on truth and not about love. This is only the tip of this iceberg, more information - will be forthcoming.
They dig an ever deeper hole for themselves by their claim, as it refers to the viewing of gay ADULTpornography, that “It is a grave matter by its object. It is a mortal sin if it is committed with full knowledgeand deliberate consent.”
Stop this nonsense!!! The mortal sin begins with their teachings on homosexuality lacking full knowledge, due to the absence of the science on homosexuality. Additional mortal sins are committed by every RC prelate, each time they promote these teachings ——— because they are lethally dangerous to children growing up gay during their early childhood years. Don’t even bring up the science on climate change ———— when the Vatican does not recognize the science on homosexuality. This IS not about Pope Francis - but it does point to the irrelevance and worthlessness of the majority of members of the curia and hierarchy, who demonstrate that they are also victims of these unorthodox teachings.
The fact that their teachings on homosexuality are completely void of the science on homosexuality, that it makes their statement on pornography - blasphemous. Why? Because the curia and hierarchy are promoting teachings that are lethally poisonous - harmful to the safety and well-being of children, then when these children become ill - they are blamed by curia and hierarchy for falling ill. Talk about the twisted meaning of love by the curia and hierarchy - they have successfully twisted where it now means the opposite - hate - evil.
Let us not even begin discussing the issue of gay ADULTpornography with members of the curia and hierarchy who are clueless overall about the science of human sexuality, especially related to homosexuality. Because their teachings regarding the complete suppression of sexual orientation of homosexuality, void of the science on homosexuality, is the direct cause of numerous forms of additive behaviors, including the viewing of gayADULT pornography, but for even far more devastating lethal consequences that are “at an enormous price to human development (Caritas in veritate, Benedict XVI 2009).“ They are responsible for both the suicides of LGBT teenagers, and contributing to increasing the hostility of antigay prejudices - a key factor related to the deaths of LGBT teenagers, including homeless LGBT youths, who are likely to become victims of human trafficking for sex and labor. Their antigay teachings due to their negligence, but more likely their repressed and dissociated deep seated homosexual tendencies - are unsubstantiated. Their antigay teachings makes them contributors to the sexual exploration of minors and they should be prosecuted for their criminal complicity in the production of CHILD pornography.

…Nationally, about 40 percent of homeless youth identify as LGBTQ. In Springfield, the average is higher - at 55 percent.
Reynolds says their sexual orientation is most likely the reason they ended up on the streets. Because they need shelter and food, homeless youth are a vulnerable target for labor and sex trafficking.
…”The biggest target right now is young gay men," said Reynolds.
It's a situation that can be even harder to spot. For any person looking from the outside, it can look like a normal relationship.
"A typical scenario would be if a young gay man would go to Martha's and then two or three days later he would tell me that he's been staying at an old gentleman's house," said Reynolds. "And everything was going great for a while, and then the older gentleman started asking for favors in return for staying there. That's sex trafficking."
The situation can escalate and go as far as that person forcing the youth to perform favors for others in exchange for shelter and other goods.
"A lot of the at-risk population that we have are the ones that are engaging in that survival sex, or having to give something in order to have a place to stay, and we would consider that unsafe housing," said Sudduth.
Reynolds says young gay men are also less likely to report.
"That's the last thing they're going to do, is to tell someone that they are being taken advantage of every night by another person," said Reynolds.
Reynolds believes what they are fighting are overwhelming religious implications in the area.
"It's sort of top heavy. There really isn't another answer. It's either this religion or not," she said. "It's difficult to fight that money and that power when that's what existed for so long. It sort of tends to lead a blind eye to what's happening on the underside of society."
"No one chooses to be homeless. No one chooses to be taken advantage of by an older gentleman. No one chooses to be sex trafficked," said Reynolds. "We've got to get past the religion oppression. It cannot matter anymore what you believe religiously, you have to look at them as a human being. It's that simple.”…

If it was only one or two members of the curia and hierarchy who were expressing their unconscious homoerotic desires, by condemning homosexuality, the truth of these facts would not be so strikingly clear.
However, after US Supreme Courts approved gay marriage on June 25, 2015, to the trained psychological ear - the overwhelming majority of the members the curia and hierarchy sang en masse their intense disapproval, using almost identical words, in lockstep unison, as if in a global chorus - was like an emotional tsunami explosion of projections that circled the global - all exposing their fiercely repressed homosexual desires. Forgive me, to anyone with an educated mind - they were "Idiots on Parade." It was most sadly amazing!!! It also revealed that the repressed homosexual culture was and is dominant and accepted throughout the curia and the hierarchy. It clarified that their continual referrals to the existence of a "Gay Lobby" is nothing more than their own projections of their repressed homosexual paranoid delusions. Pope Francis on, July 29, 2013, in flight from Rio de Janeiro to Rome "joked that if there really is a 'gay lobby,' he hasn't yet seen it stamped on anyone's ID cards (https://www.ncronline.org/blogs/ncr-today/pope-homosexuals-who-am-i-judge)." It is easier to realized how this CDF breach of truth came about that began by excluding the science on homosexuality that soon saturated the grassroots of society with their antigay prejudices that percolated upwards to political platforms and where they were then exploited as a political wedge to usher people into elected offices that led to Reaganomics/Deregulation resulting into globalization - valuing profits over people. The meaning of Love for both among the RC hierarchy and the US Congress has, as Benedict XVI predicted, been so twisted around to mean the opposite - hate.
Rorschach Inkblot Test
The Rorschach is not some magical insight into a person’s soul. What it is is an empirically-sound, projective testing measure that has been backed up with nearly four decades of modern research (on top of the existing four decades since the test’s publication in 1921). Through asking people to express what they see in a simple set of ten inkblots, people can often show a little bit more of themselves than their conscious selves may have intended — leading to better insights into the underlying motivations of the person’s current issues and behaviors.

Threatening to make
Cruz’s
LIFE-EXTREMELY DIFFICULT
Cardinal Raymond Burke is forceful in denouncinghomosexuality claiming it is the teaching of the Church, but he is completely unable to explain in detail his reasoning (Cardinal Raymond Burke: Gays, remarried Catholics, murderers are all the same, Mar 27, 2015 https://www.ncronline.org/news/people/cardinal-raymond-burke-gays-remarried-catholics-murderers-are-all-same). The details that he gives are his very own unconscious homoerotic feelings being projected onto others. Burke is not alone, it clearly appears that he is joined by the majority of the clergy in the Church, not just the hierarchy. Why would this be likely to be true? An all male celibate priesthood, has great difficulty explaining in detail the reasoning about homosexuality. They are completely lost to begin a dialogue between science and religion on the topic of homosexuality., as directed by both John Paul II and Benedict XVI. Why is this true? It is most likely, that we are dealing with a population that is largely made up of repressed homosexuals, though in varying degrees of repression. However, there are many priests at the grassroots, who have no difficulty in this regard, but for good reason are cautious about openly discussing the topic of homosexuality. Mr. Cruz explained why this caution is advised, how he was sternly warned by his lawyer that the members of the hierarchy would twist around the fact that he was gay and use it as a weapon against him. And use it against him they did, Cruz details the violence that he was subjected to by the cardinals and bishops, depicting him, as a pervert and threatening to make his life-extremely difficult (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/21/world/europe/pope-francis-gays-god-made-you-this-way-.html). Documentation will prove that this has been the standard antigayruthless and deceitful tactics of the curia and hierarchy hidden tightly behind the wall of “bureaucratic anonymity” of the Vatican, i.e. VATILEAKS 2012, the “BOFFO METHOD” an Italian phrase…a short-hand for a style of character assassination (https://www.ncronline.org/blogs/all-things-catholic/pondering-what-not-who-vatileaks). How many people, theologians, sisters, priests, etc. - have been victims of this criminal behavior - all done “in the name of God” without any recourse to justice canonically or civilly??? How many of these victims were treated in the same way as Mr. Cruz??? Who in their right mind would want to join such a demented driven organization where truth counts for nothing??? Of course, this is not the case with all members of the clergy. It is those few whose lives are NOT given to lies, gossip, rumors, hearsay or innuendos, but are built on truth that are inspiring, Pope Francis is one, there are a few others.
In 1997, after coming out, I was also warned that I could be seriously hurt. However, I refused to live the rest of my life in a closet, to be treated as if, I did something wrong, for speaking the truth!!! (Talk about a twisted curia, 21 years later and they are still there!!! And we wonder why vocations are down?!? What? We want more people like the curia to join the priesthood!?! And they are all excited/worried about "Devlin"!!! Who's fooling who?!? The way they react to these photos of Devlin will tell us everything, their degree of repression, the psychological fixation, dissociated state of mind, where they grew up and their fierce rejection of the science on homosexuality i.e. Cardinal Robert Sarah and gay adult pornography.
Cardinal Sarah is right to speak out against child pornography - as everyone should and we all should do our utmost to protect children!
However, it is equally a grievous crime to equate child pornography with gay adult pornography - where there is absolutely no connection!!!
However, it is equally a grievous crime to equate child pornography with gay adult pornography - where there is absolutely no connection!!!
Child pornography is an atrocious pervasive harmful crime, however, gay/straight adult pornography - research has found it to be harmless!!!
"For most people, pornography use has no negative effects —and it may even deter sexual violence (https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-sunny-side-of-smut/?page=2)." Because of Sarah's emphatic denial of the science on homosexuality it reveals that - the only thing aggressive about gay adult pornography for Robert Sarah (and others like him) is that it ignites and brings to the surface of his consciousness is his repressed and dissociated deep seated homosexual tendencies, which he then projects onto the West to condemn it there or to attack Fr. James Martin for - what he cannot acknowledge exists in himself. The same is true of the US Bishops' obsessive need to suppress gay/straight adult pornography. "The bishops labored over a document highlighting the evils of pornography and went into great detail about erotic stimulation, orgasm and masturbation, reminding us, as some of them do on a regular basis, that masturbation is always gravely evil. Because the church has repeatedly condemned pornography, it is not clear why the bishops put so much effort into this policy paper at this time. What is clear is that a majority of U.S. Catholic bishops continue to beobsessed with things sexual and continue to ignore the pope’s exhortation to instead focus on issues relating to charity and justice. (https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/article/Catholic-bishops-find-pornography-more-important-6671781.php)."
What appears to be true about adult pornography usage from research and from observational studies i.e. US Bishops, is that the obsessive need to suppress the desire to view adult pornography for religious reasons may actually increase the desire to view it and exacerbate sexual problems.

A Reaction Formation Against Porn
Those who advocate against the dangers of sexual arousal fear their own desires
David J. Ley Ph.D. - May 25, 2014
In May 2014, a Chicago-area Catholic priest was arrested, allegedly for exposing himself to other adults at a gas station. He turned himself in after he was identified by the license plate on his car. Even now, I imagine the man is sitting in a police station, tormented by his actions, in agony for his mistakes. I sympathize with the pain he must feel, and his fear of the rejection, judgment and scorn he will surely experience from his Church and congregation.
The irony of his hypocrisy is made worse by the monsignor’s recent campaign against the seductive, insidious and “addictive” dangers of Internet porn. The clergyman has written and spoken publicly about how Internet pornography, so readily accessible to teens on their phones and computers, causes neurochemicals changes in their brains, and warps the young people’s ideas of sex, love and intimacy:
“One huge concern is the personal isolation that porn creates. It is such a fake form of intimacy and love, it does the absolute opposite of fulfilling each person’s need for intimacy and love. ... There are great negative effects on people on a social, personal, family and relational level.
“It is just a lie, a false presentation (of love and intimacy) … Many, if not most, kids are starting to get addicted.”
He went on to suggest that the crisis of Internet pornography was something that parents, congregations and communities needed to act on, because “Kids ages 11 to 17 are the highest consumers of pornography, according to recent statistics.”
This man’s well-meaning but destructive campaign was based on misconceptions, driven by fear, probably his own fears, of the power that sexual arousal has in his life and that of others. Porn isn’t addictive, it doesn’t change one’s brain, and children under 17 are definitely not the highest consumers of pornography. Porn isn’t addictive, but perhaps fear is.
As an advocate against the sex/porn addiction industry, I am regularly challenged with fear-based rhetoric, that porn and sex can lead people to dangerous, destructive, frightening sexual acts…
A reaction formation is a psychological concept, whereby a person with a strong, uncomfortable desire, develops an even stronger, exaggerated, public stance against that secret, shameful desire. Shakespeare knew this human dynamic, when he wrote in Hamlet, “The lady doth protest too much, methinks.”
Mark Foley is a former US House Representative, who was a political leader against child pornography, homosexuality and sex offenses against children. He resigned from the House after revelations of a scandal involving a young male page and Foley’s inappropriate communications with the young man. Ted Haggard is an American minister, who preached against homosexuality and exhorted his congregations to support anti-gay legislations. Haggard was later exposed as engaging in homosexual relationships, and even later identified himself as bisexual. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrichcastigated President Bill Clinton’s infidelity during impeachment proceedings, while Gingrich himself was having an affair…

Given Uganda's homophobia, why does it lead the way in Googling gay porn?
10 January 2014
Is there a connection, then, between homophobia and suppressed homosexuality, along the lines of "me thinks he protesteth too much"? Is it that homosexual desires, when shut out because of some sense of shame, can easily express themselves as a form of homophobia? When the US conservative evangelical pastor Ted Haggard, well known for his anti-gay preaching, was discovered to have been paying a masseur for gay sex, he explained that "I think I was partially so vehement because of my own war". Freud coined the description "reaction-formation", in which anxiety-generating feelings are masked by an exaggerated reaction in the opposite direction. There is some experimental evidence to back this up, with one study showing that 20% of those who self-described as "highly straight" indicated some level of same-sex attraction. This discrepancy is often put down to highly controlling parents who do not allow their children room to explore their sexual identity.
Yes, of course, there are many people who do not experience same-sex attraction who are anti-gay. But one of the features of reaction-formation is its paranoia and lack of proportion. And this is precisely what the scaremongering nonsense about gay people being out to get our children – a common line in the Ugandan debate – clearly demonstrates. In conservative religious environments where God is depicted as a powerful all-controlling parent, it makes sense to me that this reaction-formation will be particularly strong…

A Personal Concern
Repression seems to figure prominently into the puzzle of pornography. In 2009 Michael P. Twohig, a psychologist at Utah State University, asked 299 undergraduate students whether they considered their pornography consumption problematic; for example, causing intrusive sexual thoughts or difficulty finding like-minded sex partners. Then he assessed the students with an eye to understanding the root causes of their issues.
It turns out that among porn viewers, the amount of porn each subject consumed had nothing to do with his or her mental state. What mattered most, Twohig found, was whether the subjects tried to control their sexual thoughts and desires. The more they tried to clamp down on their urge for sex or porn, the more likely they were to consider their own pornography use a problem. The findings suggest that suppressing the desire to view pornography, for example, for moral or religious reasons, might actually strengthen the urge for it and exacerbate sexual problems. It’s all about “personal views and personal values,” Twohig says. In other words, the effects of pornography—positive or negative—have little to do with the medium itself and everything to do with the person viewing it…Read more: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-sunny-side-of-smut/?page=2
It is obvious to the world that for over the past 30 years, the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy have been obsessively leading a global antigay crusade - publicly condemning homosexuality, while simultaneously fiercely and completely suppressing the science on homosexuality and this their obsession has only exacerbated the gay sexual acting out activity of the Vatican and expedited the expansion of globalization.
Pope Francis “Envy leads to false accusations” 10 June 2018
Pope denounces “slanderous communication” of dictatorships
18 June 2018
…If you want to destroy institutions or people, you start by speaking ill of them…
Slander makes martyrs of innocents…
Dictatorship of evil communication
Pope Francis pointed out that even today this method of slanderous communication is used in many countries. Media and communication law is brushed aside with the entire communication system handed to a company or a group that weakens democratic life with slander and falsehood. The judges then condemn these weakened institutions and destroyed people. That’s how dictatorship works, the Pope said.
The Pope said all dictatorships began by adulterating communication by putting it in the hands of an unscrupulous person or government.
The seduction of scandals
This also happens in daily life, the Pope pointed out, saying one begins to destroy a person by starting with communication – speaking ill of others, slandering and spreading scandals, which he said have great seductive power.
Good news doesn’t seduce, it passes by, but a scandal draws attention. This is how a person, institution and country ends up in ruins.
The Pope said many persons and nations have been destroyed by evil and slanderous dictatorships, such as in the last century. He particularly pointed to the example of the persecution of Jews, who because of a slanderous communication did not deserve to live and thus ended up at Auschwitz.
Calling it a horror, the Pope said it happens even today in small societies, in persons and in many countries…

It is this truth about gay sexual orientation that comes from the dialogue between science and religion that is exposing the reality that the sexual orientation of the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy is homosexual - repressed homosexuals. They vividly demonstrate what the lived out breach in the dialogue on homosexuality looks like - that Benedict XVI warns will come, as it did for Hitler and the Nazis, “at an enormous price to human development(http://w2.vatican.va/content/benedict-xvi/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_ben-xvi_enc_20090629_caritas-in-veritate.html).” Their fierce denial of the science on homosexuality shows how the absence of truth empties love of its meaning, leaving the meaning of love vulnerable to be arbitrarily so twisted around that it comes to mean the opposite. This is blatantly evident by the curia’s and hierarchy’s decades of cover-ups of the child sexual abuse and even more evil they scapegoated - blamed gay priests and by extension gay people for the abuse. Oh, this is bad, very bad!!! What kind of example does this show the to the world? Is there any wonder why the science on climate change is denied or why vocations are down. We only have freedom to love what is good. There will not be any mentally and spiritually healthy, individuals joining the priesthood when there remains an absence of truth, because without truth there is no LOVE (Benedict XVI)
Pope Francis just being a humble faithful servant of Jesus - exposes the corruption, at the top, en masse. In the Chile sexual abuse situation - Pope Francis demonstrated plenty, first, he is not intimidated by the truth, he is not afraid of being challenged or to admit when he is wrong, grievously wrong. He again separated pedophilia from homosexuality, by inviting Mr. Cruz to Rome, knowing he was gay and in spite of being told by Chilean bishops that Mr. Cruz left the Church “for a life of perversion.” Pope Francis began this separation, beginning in July 2013 with his famous and healing words “Who am I to Judge?” He called for the synod on family 2014 and among the many family issues openly discussed was also, one on how to be more pastorally welcoming to gay people and valuing lifelong committed gay relationships. After the Orlando, FL - Pulse nightclub massacre - June 12, 2016 Pope Francis stated that Christians should apologize to gay people, always reconnecting gay people to the human race (http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/26/world/pope-apologize-gays/). These are a few major unprecedented events involving gay people, but Pope Francis has had unprecedented situations with people around the world, which is the true meaning of being Catholic. He has only been pope for 5 years. The absence of committed support among the members of the curia and hierarchy in Pope Francis’s out-reaching ministry to the world - speaks volumes. They acted and continue to act - like children who never grew up, unfazed by people suffering.

Pope Francis: ‘the Holy Spirit – protagonist of evangelization’ 11 June 2018
…Pope Francis…evangelization has three fundamental dimensions: proclamation, service and gratuitousness.
PROCLAMATION
…That proclamation is unlike other types of communication. Due to the action of the Holy Spirit, it has the power “to change hearts”. There have been pastoral plans that seem to be perfect, Pope Francis said. “They were incapable of changing hearts” because they were ends in themselves. “They were not instruments of evangelization”, the Pope said.
It is not with an entrepreneurial attitude that Jesus sends us…. No, it is with the Holy Spirit. This is courage. The true courage behind evangelization is not human stubbornness. No, it is the Spirit who gives us courage and who carries you forward.
SERVICE
…he said that pursuing a career or success "in the Church is a sure sign that someone doesn’t know what evangelization is…for the one who commands must be the one who serves”
…he said that pursuing a career or success "in the Church is a sure sign that someone doesn’t know what evangelization is…for the one who commands must be the one who serves”
…We can say good things but without service it is not proclamation. It may seem to be, but it is not, because the Spirit not only carries you forward to proclaim the truths of the Lord and the life of the Lord, but He also brings you to the service of the brothers and sisters, even in small things. It’s awful when you find evangelizers who make others serve them and who live to be served. They are like the princes of evangelization – how awful.
The Gospel is GRATUITOUS
Pope Francis presented gratuitousness as the third aspect of evangelization because no one can be redeemed by his or her own merit. The Lord reminds us, “Without cost you have received; without cost you are to give” (Matthew 10:8).
Pope Francis presented gratuitousness as the third aspect of evangelization because no one can be redeemed by his or her own merit. The Lord reminds us, “Without cost you have received; without cost you are to give” (Matthew 10:8).
All of us have been saved gratuitously by Jesus Christ. Therefore, we must give gratuitously. Those who carry out the pastoral work of evangelization must learn this. Their life must be gratuitous, given in service, proclamation, borne by the Spirit. Their personal poverty forces them to open themselves up to the Spirit.

latency Fixation
It speaks volumes - especially noting what strongly appears to be a symptom of repressed homosexuals and that is a fixation at the latency stage of psychological development (https://www.verywellmind.com/freuds-stages-of-psychosexual-development-2795962). This fixation, in brief, has to do with their inability to come to terms with and be accepting of their God given sexual orientation, a phenomenal process for any type of sexual orientation that for them - from all observations would be homosexual. The decades of their intense obsessive antigay crusade - is a key indicator. Their inability to be accepting of their gay sexual orientation prevents them from advancing onto the maturational developments in adolescence and on into adulthood (Psychoanalytic Approaches to Trauma: A Forty-Year Retrospective - Henry Krystal).
Unending
Immature Love Relationships
Obsessively
Condemning Gay People
&
Gay ADULT Pornography
With the onset of puberty comes an onslaught of a whole new range of physical and emotional feelings that all needs to be recognized and understood that then becomes part of a person’s information processing system - to relate effectively with the world - in communicating and in forming relationships with others. A fixation at latency prevents this recognition and integration of this phenomenal process of a person’s sexual orientation from taking place. During the stage of "latency (6-12 years of age):…children begin to further develop the superego, or conscience. Children begin to behave in morally acceptable ways and adopt the values of their parents and other important adults (https://courses.lumenlearning.com/boundless-psychology/chapter/theories-of-human-development/)." A gay child is likely to become fixated at this stage, because of the parents' disapproval of the child's outward expressions that appear to the parents to be gay. The parents' disapproval of homosexuality is greatly influenced by the degree of severity of the antigay social and religious norms found in the social environment. It is a traumatizing situation for a child growing up gay. Developmentally the child does not have the capacity to understand what "gay" means to an adult. To the child the parents' disapproval - is perceived and experienced, as parental abandonment - that for a child who is completely dependent on his parents for existence - abandonment is a fate worst than death. At this traumatized state the child will do whatever the parents wants and will do everything to avoid ever feeling this overwhelming traumatizing situation in the future (Krystal, H. 1988. Integration and self-healing: Affect, trauma, and alexithymia). In addition, for the child, the hold event(s) will be separated from the traumatizing emotions and past into the child's unconscious mind, a child's built-in safety mechanism. Though, the event is forgotten but the emotions remain active and disruptive throughout the child's life. The development of child's conscience is altered. The child's without question will be wedded to his parents' disapproval homosexuality. The child unknowingly becomes, as it were "frozen" in this state of mind, this is the fixation. This is the mental dissociation of a child, from his gay sexual orientation and depending on the degree of this dissociation, child will grow up to be clueless of any developmental process of his gay sexuality during puberty that can be lasting through his adulthood years. This fixation prevents the gay child from acquiring of the capacity to grieve effectively, the relinquishing that one is no longer a child, in relationship to his parents and of oneself. It is a little of St Paul:
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
Their inability to acknowledge their gay sexual orientation and therefore to recognize their related gay emotional and physical feelings leads to a great deal of confusion and anxiety that in this dissociated state of mind - as explained above - they are given to projecting their regular and persistent homoerotic thoughts and feelings onto others - scapegoating gay people and then attempting to control these feelings by condemning and punishing the person(s) they have projected them onto, i.e. Mr. Cruz. Always staying loyally and fiercely attached to the key source of their traumatic abuse - the unsubstantiated antigay teachings lacking the science on homosexuality. Oh, yes, much more to come and not just from me. Fr. Marty Kurylowicz

The fact that - these teachings on homosexuality are founded on the principles of Nazism, a form of fascism that fabricated a pseudoscience of racism to publicly justify an escalating lethal form of antisemitism
- is proven by how the curia and the hierarchy have treated for the past 30 years and continue to treat
gay people: e.g. how Mr. Cruz's gay sexual orientation was used by the bishops and cardinals against him, to discredit him, to call him a pervert, to purposefully make his life extremely difficult for him, to lie and make false accusations about him - even to Pope Francis.

Gay People are not deserving to have the past 60 years of scientific research on Homosexuality - to be respected and valued. In addition, Gay People are NOT deserving of Justice, especially gay priests or gay families to be valued of any importance in the eyes
of God or to society.

Archbishop Asks Rome To Ease Up
September 28, 1986
…Draconian measures used…to silence those who challenge traditional church teaching have resulted in ``much cruelty, suppression of theological creativity and lack of growth.``…
…Archbishop Weakland, a Benedictine monk who has been Milwaukee`s archbishop since 1977, is the first American Catholic leader of wide repute and influence to publicly raise alarm over the perceived crackdown by Rome on prominent and liberal U.S. Catholic thinkers who question Vatican stands on sexual morality and other issues…
…in his columns, titled “The Price of Orthodoxy,” Archbishop Weakland appeared to be directing his remarks to Vatican inquisitors [CDF].
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…

Adultery causes earthquakes? Sexual repression can cause much worse.
by Christopher Ryan Ph.D. - Apr 20, 2010
Nothing inspires murderous mayhem in human beings more reliably than sexual repression. Denied food, water, or freedom of movement, people will get desperate and some may lash out at what they perceive as the source of their problems, albeit in a weakened state. But if expression of sexuality is thwarted, the human psyche tends to grow twisted into grotesque, enraged perversions of desire. Unfortunately, the distorted rage resulting from sexual repression rarely takes the form of rebellion against the people and institutions behind the repression. (If it did, perhaps we'd be reading of abused priests rather than priests as abusers.) Instead, the rage is generally directed at helpless victims who are sacrificed to the sick gods of guilt, shame, and ignorant pride… Read more:

...9. The disease of gossiping, grumbling and back-biting. I have already spoken many times about this disease, but never enough. It is a grave illness which begins simply, perhaps even in small talk, and takes over a person, making him become a “sower of weeds” (like Satan) and in many cases, a cold-blooded killer of the good name of our colleagues and confrères. It is the disease of cowardly persons who lack the courage to speak out directly, but instead speak behind other people’s backs. Saint Paul admonishes us to do all things without grumbling or questioning, that you may be blameless and innocent” (Phil 2:14-15). Brothers, let us be on our guard against the terrorism of gossip!…

CURIA & HIERARCHY
It is not surprising how closely the curia’s and the hierarchy’s deceitful and ruthless - mistreatment of gay people mirrors the same dehumanizing violent attacks of the Nazi Stormtroopers (Sturmabteilung SA, Photo - A Brownshirt Parade (1929)) aimed against the Jewish people in the 1920s and 1930s.
To grab a Jewish baby from the mother’s arms and bash its head against a trunk (“The Last Days” Steven Spielberg 1998 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quzneO17G-o) or to toss it into a bonfire (Henry Krystal, MD., “Integration and Self Healing: Affect, Trauma, Alexithymia” 1988) - was of no consequence to them (these are actual horrific events - study your history!). Under Hitler’s Nazi regime - Jewish people were excluded from the right of protection by law - because Jewish people were not considered human, as already stated, killing a jew was considered no different than killing an infectious rat. Pope Benedict XVI's father was a policeman, from the time that Benedict was born 1927 until 1937 when he was 10 years old, his family had to move several times (Times Online (UK) "Papal hopeful is a former Hitler Youth" 17 April 2005) because his father was a bitter enemy of Nazism and tried to rein in Stormtroopers, Brownshirts (International Herald Tribune, "A boy's dreams lead from a village to the Vatican" 22 April 2005). It was the magnitude of this societal indifference that was an incremental form of socially accepted violence towards the Jewish people in Nazi Germany that I had studied at the University of Michigan in the mid 1990s and I was a bit traumatized on a personal level to learn how easy it is for any one of us to get swept up in this societal indifference to violence targeted at millions of people, and worst, it happens more often than not. I later did more intensive graduate research on the topic 2002-2003. In the process of doing this research I was traumatized by the unbelievable horror of this form of societal indifference. It led the way to the atrocities of the Holocaust, noted by Ian Kershaw as “…the most terrible genocide the world has ever seen” culminating in “…the most lethal and destructive war in history.” It is “not just physical” Kershaw writes that Hitler was the inspiration for “but also moral, ruination such as history has never previously experienced.” Hitler “represented an extreme pathology of modern society…the most radical face of modern inhumanity – how an advanced society can undergo a breathtaking descent into modern barbarity that’s quite without precedent…” Kershaw states (http://www.open.edu/openlearn/history-the-arts/history/ou-lecture-2005-transcript).

As dictator, Hitler and the Nazi Party continued to feed on the use of the same propaganda exploitation of German’s antigay prejudices - to launch their ruthless and lethal campaign against their feared anti-nazi opposition of the Catholic Church.
A History of Christianity,
by Owen Chadwick, 1996
…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 move towards outright 'repression; the stage persecution of monks for homosexuality, with the maximum of publicity. In 1937 Pius issued an encyclical, Mit brennender Sorge (‘With burning anxiety’), in which he listed all the breaches of the concordat committed by the Germans (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2316392.A_History_of_Christianity p 254)."
In 1937, Hitler and the Nazis were “infuriated" by condemnations that Pope Pius XI directed against Nazism in his encyclical Mit brennender Sorge (http://w2.vatican.va/content/pius-xi/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-xi_enc_14031937_mit-brennender-sorge.html). The encyclical “Mit brennender Sorge" was drafted by Cardinal Eugenio Pacelli (the future Pope Pius XII, March 2, 1939 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Pius_XII ) “and read from the pulpits of all German Catholic churches, it criticized Hitler, detailed Nazi crimes and condemned Nazi ideology (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mit_brennender_Sorge#Catholic_response).” Pope Pius XI called on the clergy to refute the errors of Nazism. “The Nazis, who had brutally squashed most other critics, branded this encyclical a ’call to Battle against the Reich.’ Hitler vowed revenge against the church (Frank J. Coppa, The Papacy, the Jews, and the Holocaust- 2006, p 162, http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4102687-the-papacy-the-jews-and-the-holocaust).”
From the extensive historical documentation, along with the supporting evidence presented at the Nuremberg war-crimes trials of 1945 and 1946 - a horrific picture is obtained of the extreme pathology and barbarity of the crimes against humanity committed by Hitler and the Nazi Regime (http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/0022009404042130). Through the documentation of one of “the leading United States investigators at Nuremberg, Gen. William J. Donovan (http://www.nytimes.com/2002/01/13/weekinreview/word-for-word-case-against-nazis-hitler-s-forces-planned-destroy-german.html)” we learn the facts of the unprecedented severe brutality of Hitler’s revenge inflicted on the Catholic Church, that followed in the wake of the distribution of “Mit brennender Sorge” the encyclical of Pope Pius XI in 1937. Gen. William J. Donovan’s records stored at Cornell University were released through the collaborative efforts between Cornell and Rutgers Universities in 1999, known as the Nuremberg Project. “The outline, ‘The Persecution of the Christian Churches,’ summarizes the Nazi plan to subvert and destroy German Christianity, which it calls ‘an integral part of the National Socialist scheme of world conquest.’” From these records - it was clear that Hitler did not want to make martyrs out of the Catholic priests. Hitler wanted them to died as criminals.

Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi minster of propaganda orchestrated the attacks by once again exploiting German societal prejudices against homosexuals - to obscure Hitler’s real motive of revenge that not only was meant to destroy the Catholic clergy, but the Catholic Church as well. Goebbels was aware that an outwardly attack on the anti-nazi opposition of the Catholic clergy, would not be possible for fear of a public outrage would then be directed at Hitler and the Nazi Regime and make martyrs out of the priests they attacked and killed.
Hitler: 1936-1945 Nemesis
Ian Kershaw - 2001
‘After three years, I believe that, with the present day, the struggle for German equal rights can be regarded as closed.’ The day was 7 March 1936. The words were those of Hitler addressing the Reichstag as German troops, defying the western democracies, crossed into the demilitarized Rhineland… ‘
…The mood of national exhilaration whipped up by the Rhineland spectacular was, it is true, of its nature short-lived...The behaviour and corruption of party functionaries was as much a source of grievance as ever. And in Catholic areas, where the ‘Church struggle’ had intensified, the party’s attacks on the Church’s practices and institutions, the assault on denominational schooling, and the harassing of clergy (including highly publicized trials of members of religious orders for alleged foreign-currency smuggling and sexual impropriety) left the mood extraordinarily sour...
...In February 1937 Hitler made it plain to his inner circle that he did not want a ‘Church struggle’ at this juncture…Instead, the conflict with the Christian Churches intensified. The anti-clericalism and anti-Church sentiments of the grass-roots Party activists simply could not be eradicated…It was met by determined (if ultimately unsuccessful) rearguard action of the clergy and churchgoing population…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. Where the hold of the Church was strong, as in the backwaters of rural Bavaria, the conflict raged in villages and small towns with little prompting from on high.
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’…

A brief description:
Dissociative Processes
by Harry Stack Sullivan
Have you ever wonder why some very prominent male public figures, who have been known for making harsh condemning public statements against homosexuality, only to find out later in the news media that these same men were caught engaging in “public restroom” sex or were paying to have sex with men. Harry Stack Sullivan, M.D. in his description of Dissociative Processes in his book Clinical Studies on Psychiatry gives some insight, as to how this phenomenon can happen not only to public figures but also to anyone.
Anxiety
Instant Smoke Screen
Dr. Sullivan considers his theory of dissociative processes in understanding how “an important system of the personality is effectively barred from any disturbing influence of personal awareness for a period of years and perhaps for a lifetime.” He explains how even a blatantly obvious issue of a person’s personality, which would be expected to be in that person’s self-awareness, however, it is successfully kept out. How is this possible? Sullivan begins by explaining the dynamics of anxiety, as having an “extraordinarily arresting effect on whatever was about to happen.” So when a disturbing issue is provoked and about to enter into one’s consciousness that person feels anxious. Sullivan states that the anxiety becomes more important than the disturbing issue that has been provoked. It sounds like anxiety can be used like a drug. Because when anxiety is allowed to flood the conscious mind, it preoccupies that person’s attention, and therefore any disturbing issue is blocked out of the person’s awareness. However, over time, if anxiety is allowed to run a person’s life, Sullivan states that it ...
… generally leads to an appallingly uncomfortable life. Take for example, a person to whom any sexual impulse, any movement of lust, is an intolerable ingredient of awareness. Presumably the only discharge of impulse, which concerned lust would occur in sleep or in some other very extraordinary situation. One would expect long stretches of waking life to remain in which the person was in the throes of lust. That would mean, from our standpoint, that he was anxious, and was therefore practically incapable of that application to reality that is necessary in order to carry out complex performances, to realize goals take more than momentary action (Clinical Studies on Psychiatry, 1956, p. 168).
Dissociation
Contradistinction to Anxiety
Dr. Sullivan describes dissociation in contrast to anxiety, because it “does not require disturbance of the contents of consciousness and which does not act as an impediment to the conduct of life in the areas where there is not dissociation…one is more efficient and much nearer happiness, contentment.” Sullivan describes what a person suffers being in a dissociative state by what people say who are recovering from a dissociation state. They report that “... they could now take things easier. Life is less exhausting; it was not so intense; it did not tire them so rapidly per hour (Clinical Studies on Psychiatry, 1956, p. 169)."
To illustrate the processes and effects of dissociation, Sullivan chooses the example of a married man, he calls, Mr. A, who has dissociated from all his thoughts and impulses of being a homosexual. On the surface, this man’s married life is picture prefect, except for his lack of sexual relations with his wife. Although, this man’s homosexual impulses have remainedconstant and alive from preadolescence to the present, he has been able to successfully totally dissociate from that whole part of his life. What this means is that this man has tremendous anxiety about being a homosexual, which likely began for him, as far back as his pre adolescent years growing up. And the way he has been able not to have his anxiety become overwhelming for him is by not consciously accepting the fact that he is a homosexual. In his mind he would have seamlessly reworked any indication that would lead to the conscious fact that he was a homosexual. It is this process that Sullivan is describing, as dissociation, a level of cognitive sophistication and specificity that is seamless, undetectable consciously by the person himself.
Process Of Dissociation
How this process of dissociation works is that a person is mentally reworking all perceived information from his surrounding social environment that would lead to the intensely dreaded indication that he was a homosexual. Dr. Sullivan illustrates “what a remarkable performance dissociation is,” by using his example of this married man, Mr. A. Sullivan begins by indicating that Mr. A did have a very happy experience, which was a definite homosexual relationship, in his preadolescent years growing up. However, now, as an adult, Mr. A has successfully dissociated from all conscious memory of this happy experience. Sullivan than describes how Mr. A. would react if he met someone new, Mr. X, as an adult, years later, that vividly resembled this special friend from his past. Mr. X is “the type to activate powerfully an impulse which … would lead to homosexual instances with Mr. A (p 171).” Instead, what happens with Mr. A is he will treat Mr. X “almost as a non-existent entity.” Mr. A will be polite but it will be a reduction of his normal social demeanor. If people notice that Mr. A’s behavior tends to be rather cool towards Mr. X, Mr. A will rationalize it by saying that there is just something about this new person he does not like. Sullivan goes through many examples of how Mr. A will continue to act cool, disinterested, continuously making derogatory remarks about Mr. X. However, Mr. A in his dissociative state “has anything but data on what he has been doing (p.173),” studying Mr. X’s physical profile, orchestrating to sit across from Mr. X at dinner, even to have a sexual encounter with Mr. X. Sullivan describes,
Thus here is an aspect of the self-organization which frequently appear in the major tendencies. That is, a patient with a dissociated impulse will experience special cognitive distortions about anyone whose combination of positive values horribly moves the patient to integrate his dissociated impulse. These positively valued people are then endowed by the patient with the negative of the feelings that would accompany this integration, so that one literally, suavely, and automatically misidentifies the meaning of such a person. In other words, in order that the dissociated tendency shall never disturb awareness, shall not provoke anxiety – because if it did, one would be anxious so much of the time that one could not do things which are necessary to life---the security system has come to include very elaborate pseudo memories, revery processes, and so on, which amount to a wonderfully thorough piece of fantasythat neatly and very adequately excludes any ordinary ways by which one would become aware of something. You need not marvel too much that such things can be, because our erroneous explanations of things are of the same type, and you know they run very beautifully unless they happen to break down in a particularly distressful situation (Clinical Studies on Psychiatry, 1956, p. 174).
The process of dissociation as described by Harry Stack Sullivan is a complex system of cognitive distortion of our perception of reality to securely avoid us from knowing some truth about ourselves. A truth, so feared, if known to us would flood our conscious mind with overwhelming amounts of anxiety, causing us to become incapacitated to function normally.

Above excerpts taken from:
Harry Stack Sullivan MD,
Dissociative Processes,
Clinical Studies on Psychiatry (1956)
Homosexual dissociation is an almost seamless personality persona - where even the smallest hint that a person is gay is kept out of this person’s conscious awareness. Homosexual dissociation falls on a continuum between mild to severe. Sexual orientation, whether gay, straight or bisexual - is not able to be suppressed, it functions autonomically, meaning it functions outside of a person’s conscious awareness - like the heart beating or breathing. This is true whether a closeted gay person is acting out in the most benign sociably appropriate manner, such as, being overly solicitous of a particular same sex person or sexually acting out in public restrooms and who at the same time can be running a raging antigay crusade and not be aware of the blatant hypocrisy. Such homosexual dissociated behaviors are not easily identifiable in any single closeted gay person, however, when they are presented en masse among the members of a group like the curia and hierarchy - they become like a bright flashing neon sign for everyone to see, but be completely undetectable by the members of the group. The global violence they are causing to very young children - cannot be allowed to continue - this truth has to be exposed, most likely the same type of violence they experienced as children during their early childhood years growing up gay - and have long forgotten and continue to repress, however, they unknowingly continue to re-enact the same violence throughout their adult lives. It is a cycle of perpetuating the same ongoing violence. It is only truth that will stop it! Beginning the ongoing dialogue between the science on homosexuality and religion is how to fine the truth and bring the true meaning of love back into the Vatican and the world.

“Brokeback Mountain” 2005
…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?…

The Breach
Love Twisted Around to Mean the Opposite
Left unchecked has allowed this form homosexual dissociation violence to become part of the accepted organizational cultureof the curia and hierarchy. A culture that has morphed into a treacherous form of groupthink that found to be acceptable or of turning a blind eye to ruthless and deceitful “Brownshirt” (Stormtroopers, “Sturmabteilung” (“Assault Division”), or SA) tactics used against gay people, especially gay priests, as was exposed through the case of Mr. Cruz. Including, agreeing with the curia’s and hierarchy’s fierce obsessive antigay crusadelasting for over the past 30 years. The blatant absence of the science on homosexuality is a key unaccountable factor that opens the door that something is seriously wrong. Given that as a group, they are isolated from the world, erroneously demeaned to be divinely inspired by God, therefore believing that they are not in need of any outside oversight and have the power silence and demonize anyone who dares to challenge their authority - they operated like monsters - children at play due to their latency Fixation. They became an impenetrable shield and force. It causes one to rethink - the meaning attributed to Pope John XXIII wanting to open the windows of the Vatican so people could see in and those inside could see out - was he speaking about this same impenetrable shield and force. Pope Francis born and raised in a social environment that was completely the opposite to the severe antigay social environment of Nazi Germany - he simply was unresponsive to this antigay organizational culture of the curia and hierarchy and to their form of groupthink. This is because Pope Francis did not experience, as a child in his early childhood developmental years - the antigay violence that the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy had experienced.
What is Dissociation?
Dissociation is a mental process that causes a lack of connection in a person’s thoughts, memory and sense of identity. Dissociation seems to fall on a continuum of severity. Mild dissociation would be like daydreaming, getting “lost” in a book, or when you are driving down a familiar stretch of road and realize that you do not remember the last several miles. A severe and more chronic form of dissociation is seen in the disorder Dissociative Identity Disorder, once called Multiple Personality Disorder, and other Dissociative Disorders.
CAUSES OF DISSOCIATION
The causes of dissociation typically include trauma, often prolonged trauma, such as sexual or physical abuse, in childhood. The stress of war or natural disasters may also cause dissociation. Dissociation is more common in children, which is why this particular behavior is often developed in childhood. Dissociation is a coping skill used to separate the person from the traumatic event(s) and memories of the traumatic event(s). Children find it particularly easy to "step out of themselves" as their identity is still forming. Dissociation may be worsened during times of stress, even in adulthood, in those who have learned this coping skill.

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.
Closeted individuals frequently cannot acknowledge to themselves, let alone to others, their homoerotic feelings, attractions and fantasies. Their homosexuality is so unacceptable that it must be kept out of conscious awareness and cannot be integrated into their public persona. Consequently, these feelings must be dissociated from the self and hidden from others...
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)…

UNCONSCIOUSLY RE-ENACTING
Early Childhood Antigay Traumatic Memories of Nazi Germany
Selma Fraiberg
Selma Fraiberg, reminds us all, clinicians, non-clinicians and parents, how unconsciously we may mistreat children. This can be done quite unintentionally and unknowingly by inflicting on them the same kind of mistreatment we received as children growing up.
Selma Fraiberg, explains how parents' own past experiences of growing up, impacts their relationship with their own child, beginning as infants. Fraiberg’s research studied the interactions between an infant and one of the parents, when both were left alone in a room. She observed what happens when an infant begins to cry and continues crying for an extended amount of time. Fraiberg discovered that some parents appeared undisturbed by their infant's distress and made no gesture, to soothe, calm or even to pick up their infant.
What prevented these parents from attending to their crying infants? Fraiberg’s research revealed that unconscious processes, conflicts (the Ghosts) of the parents' own past were being played out, in the same way, as these parents experienced being cared for by adults during their early childhood years growing up. The reason why some parents did not pick up their crying infants was because in the past when they were growing up, no one heard their cries or picked them up to soothe them. Not having experienced the attentiveness of a caring comforting adult when they were in distress, as children, as parents, they have no conception of the need to comfort their own crying infants.
Fraiberg’s aim was to intervene at this point, in her parent/infant psychotherapy, to uncover these unconscious processes of the parents that were being played out in caring for their infants and then to them help to construct a more meaningful life-giving interactions between the parents and their infants. (Fraiberg, Selma; Adelson, Edna; Shapirio, Vivian; (1987) Ghosts in the Nursery: a Psychoanalytic Approach to the Problems of Impaired Infant-mother Relationships. Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry's (JAACAP)).
In addition, to the fact that curia and hierarchy, including priests have extensively demonstrated that they are repressed dissociated homosexuals, they are, also, equally oblivious to how their traumatic antigay re-enactments of their early childhood years are violently harming children, around the world, daily, "moment by moment" for the past 30 years, - in the same way they were abused as children by antigay social and religious norms. This is because there was no one available during their early childhood years to protect them from the traumatic antigay abuse. As, Selma Fraiberg, found in her research, “Ghost in the Nursery” regarding parents who were abused as children, as adults - they have no conceptionof the need to comfort and protect children, globally. This is why Pope Francis's words that he voiced in flight July 28, 2013, from Rio De Janeiro to Rome, "Who am I to Judge?" regarding gay people were so deeply healing, globally, because as the pope, the head of the Catholic Church, he stood up and boldly provided the protection that to so many gay people, had never experienced as children or ever. These wounds of early childhood - growing up gay - need healing - no matter how old we get. Experiencing this type of healing - is renewing that like Selma Fraiberg discovered that once these wounds of early childhood are identified and acknowledged by someone who is caring, the healing begins almost immediately for the person. Because, once we have a conception of what it feels like to be cared for and protected - we almost immediately have a vivid awareness that children need the same kind of care and protection.
Selma Fraiberg’s research “Ghosts in the Nursery” helps to give us insight into the organizational culture of the curia and hierarchy and how it came to be. The majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy, had no one to care and protect them from the antigay violence they experienced throughout their early childhood years growing up gay - so as adults they are oblivious to the need to care and protect gay children growing up. As adults, by refusing to acknowledge the science on homosexuality - they are re-enacting the same antigay violence they experienced as children - to children, globally. They are even recruiting the same kind of men for the priesthood, by demanding that the men wanting to enter the priesthood - that first and foremost - they are to keep their “Deep Seated Homosexual Tendencies” completely hidden - in the same way that the members of the curia and hierarchy had to do since their early childhood years, because they had no one to protect them from violence of antigay social and religious norms. Like Selma Fraiberg discovered - regarding the importance to hear the mother’s cry, meaning to identify and acknowledge the mother’s wounds of early childhood, in order to ensure the safety and well-being her child, apparently the same would be true for the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy, who are repressed homosexuals. We have to care enough to hear their cries of early childhood and identify and acknowledge their wounds of antigay violence, before they will realize the need to protect the world’s children from the same antigay violence. And if successful, we would be helping them to resolved their latency Fixation and to resume their fulfillment and completion of their psychological developmental stages, freeing them to become fully functioning human beings and to be connected in meaningful ways to one another. Thus we would be helping them to begin the process of untwisting their meaning of love from hate back to the true meaning of love, by resolving their breach caused by their suppression of the science on homosexuality. Their obsessive antigay crusade would subside, as well as, their obsessive concern about gay ADULT pornography. Then and only then will they be able to hear the cries of others and embrace those who are in need, because they will know what it feels like to be care for and protected. Because they will have a conception of the need to comfort and protect children and adults, globally.

Ghosts in the Nursery: A Psychoanalytic Approach to the Problems of Impaired Infant-Mother Relationships.
Selma Fraiberg; Edna Edelson; Vivian Shapiro. Pp. 387-421.
Journal of the American Academy of Child Psychiatry. XIV, 1975
In this beautifully written paper, the defense of identification with the aggressor is explored. Through detailed accounts of two patients, in which 'ghosts of the parental past take possession of the nursery' (the mothers reared their infants in a repetition of the pathological and traumatic parenting they had suffered as infants), a key question and a thoughtful hypothesis are presented. The focal question raised is what 'determines whether the conflicted past of the parent will be repeated with [her] child', since it is well known that not every traumatized child becomes a traumatizing parent. The authors pose the hypothesis that the essential difference is in the nature and content of the defensive repressions. The parent who has successfully isolated and repressed the affective components of the trauma seems doomed to repeat the pathological parenting through identification with the betrayers and aggressors. Those who, for reasons not understood and warranting further study, consciously retain the affects of their painful past are better able to spare their own children that same experience.

…The national community gained its very definition from those who were excluded from it. Racial discrimination was inevitably, therefore, an inbuilt part of the Nazi interpretation of the concept. Since measures directed at creating "racial purity," such as the persecution later of homosexuals, Roma and "a-socials," exploited existing prejudice and were allegedly aimed at strengthening a homogeneous ethnic nation, they buttressed Hitler's image as the embodiment of the national community. Even more so, the relentless denunciation of the nation's alleged powerful enemies -- Bolshevism, western "plutocracy," and most prominently the Jews (linked in propaganda with both) -- reinforced Hitler's appeal as the defender of the nation and bulwark against the threats to its survival, whether external or from within…

Saving the world from homosexuality is like saving rainforests Pope
12/24/08
The Pope has said that "saving" humanity from homosexual behaviour is just as important as saving the rainforests, a comment likely to provoke a furious reaction from homosexual groups.
Pope Benedict, who acquired a reputation as a hardline, aggressive, doctrine-enforcing cardinal before he was appointed to the Vatican top job, described behaviour beyond traditional heterosexual relations as "a destruction of God's work".
The Catholic Church opposes gay marriage. In October, a top Cardinal advocated weeding out priests suspected of being gay. Cardinal Zenon Grocholewski, prefect of the Catholic Education Congregation, said that a celibate candidate with "deep-seated homosexual tendencies" should be barred from the priesthood.
In a clear reference to homosexuality, the 82-year-old Pope told top priests that the failure to respect the union between a man and a woman amounted to the “auto destruction of mankind”…

Pope wants humanity 'saved' from homosexuality
December 23, 2008
Pope Benedict XVI says saving humanity from homosexual or transsexual behaviour is just as important as saving the rainforest from destruction.
"(The Church) should also protect man from the destruction of himself. A sort of ecology of man is needed," the pontiff said in a holiday address to the Curia, the Vatican's central administration.
"The tropical forests do deserve our protection. But man, as a creature, does not deserve any less.”…
The Catholic Church…opposes gay marriage and, in October, a leading Vatican official called homosexuality "a deviation, an irregularity, a wound".
The pope said humanity needed to "listen to the language of creation" to understand the intended roles of man and woman.
He compared behaviour beyond traditional heterosexual relations as "a destruction of God's work".
He also defended the Church's right to "speak of human nature as man and woman, and ask that this order of creation be respected".

Pope says humanity needs 'saving' from homosexuality
December 23, 2008
The Pope has said that "saving" humanity from homosexual or transsexual behaviour is just as important as saving the rainforests.
Pope Benedict XVI sparked a furious reaction from other Christian groups as he also suggested that a blurring of the distinction between male and female could lead to the "self-destruction" of the human race…
…In his address to the Curia…the Pope himself described behaviour beyond traditional heterosexual relations as "a destruction of God's work”.
He said the Roman Catholic Church had a duty to "protect man from the destruction of himself" and urged respect for the "nature of the human being as man and woman."
His remarks were immediately denounced as "totally irresponsible and unacceptable in any shape or form" by the Lesbian and Gay Christian Movement.
…Its chief executive, the Rev Sharon Ferguson, said: "It is more the case that we need to be saved from his comments. It is comments like this that justify homophobic bullying that goes on in schools and it is comments like this that justify gay bashing.
"There are still so many instances of people being killed around the world, including in western society, purely and simply because of their sexual orientation or their gender identity.
"When you have religious leaders like that making that sort of statement then followers feel they are justified in behaving in an aggressive and violent way because they feel that they are doing God's work in ridding the world of these people.”…

AUSCHWITZ -- CHRISTMAS 2008 -- A flashback far more severe than in --- BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN
On December 22, 2008, when I heard Pope Benedict XVI Christmas address - what he said about gay people in relation to rainforest I was frightened to the core. Like a soldier back from the battlefields suffering from shell-shock (PTSD) I was thrown back into those traumatizing events of my past, a "flashback" - re-experiencing them as if they just happened. The impact of what he said struck me on several levels all at once:
first, Benedict was comparing human beings to the DEADLY HARM caused to rainforests, a traumatizing "flashback" to his early childhood growing up in Nazi Germany, when Nazi Propaganda compared homosexuality to a lethal disease that threaten Germany's survival, because in Hitler's delusional belief that Germans were the most powerful race on earth, the Nazis were obsessively focused on increasing Germany's birthrate and because homosexuals did not have children, they were perceived as national threat,
second, even worst he was stating that rainforests are more important than human beings,
third, it was his attitude of complete indifference in which he stated it - it was like bashing a baby’s head against a brick wall, which was of no consequence to him,
fourth, it was the silence of the larger global community,
fifth, he was speaking about gay people, as if they were not human,
sixth, it was the subtle, disguised and twisted way he said it, almost as if he didn't say what he said,
seventh, he is the “pope” for crying out loud - how does he dare to say something that is the complete opposite of the meaning of love,
eighth, he made the statement at Christmas time,
ninth, his information about gay people was incorrect, it lack the science,
tenth, he demonstrated the fact that he had more respect for the science of the rainforests than he did for the science of human beings,
eleventh - the complete silence of the members of the curia and hierarchy - to challenge the atrocities that he was causing by his statement,
- fortifying the ignorance of the prejudices against gay people and increasing the power to be used as a political wedge for ushering into elective office less than scrupulous people, leading to Reaganomics/Deregulation - Globalization, like Hitler did to become dictator of Germany,
- fostering violence against gay adults,
- causing lifelong harmful effects to very young children growing up gay,
- adding to the depression and ridicule of gay teenagers, leading to suicidal ideation, addictive behaviors i.e. drugs, sex, pornography, risky sexual acting out situations, creating a sex market for youth kidnappings, etc.,
- destroying families,
- responsible for teenagers being kicked out their families or needing to escape from the domestic violence directed at them in their homes and becoming homeless on streets,
twelfth, as the pope setting a vivid example that indifference to people suffering is acceptable,
thirteenth that arbitrarily ignoring the science crucial to the safety and well-being of people’s lives is also acceptable, and there a lot more not listed here.

NOTE: 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. To evaluate any situation regarding a particular person, one must thoroughly understand the context of that person’s life, i.e. the time in history that that person was born into, and how it effected that person’s life. I am writing only from 3 distinct, professional degreed perspectives, historical, psychological and religious, being a priest, which is of course limited to my particular area of study in each field, and my lived experience in each of the 3 professions. In short, there is room for a considerable amount of debate and dialogue from a prism of - academic fields of study and lived experience perspectives. However, a WARNING: Any additional contributions made about this particular topic on homosexuality, like the topic of the sun and earth - will also be equally revealing about the person who makes a contribution, i.e. personal integrity, psychological development, mental ability, reality testing, etc.

Pope Francis search for truth regarding the child sexual abuse of Chile, discovering the guilt of the bishops and the innocence of Mr. Cruz, gay man - in addition, has under covered, the decades of the standard criminal practices of the curia and hierarchy in their dehumanizing treatment of gay people, especially of gay priests. Mr. Cruz has detailed his experience at the hands of the bishops, how they used homosexuality as a weapon to attack and to discredit him. I can personally identified with the same fierce antigay hostility of how Mr. Cruz has been treated, by bishops and including the curia. The hope is that Pope Francis's search and commitment to truth will start a reverse "Domino Effect"in the opposite direction or in Mr. Cruz's words a "tsunami effect" - that recognizes the importance and value of every single human being, including Gay Priests.

The Antigay Sexual Arousal of Scatophilia
Like flies to mature watch for people like Dolan to contradict, lie or minimize what Pope Francis had said to Mr. Cruz about God creating him gay and that God loves him that way and that he needs to be happy about who he is. Yes, Pope Francis met with Italian bishops in a closed-door meeting. Yes, he said not to allow gay applicants to the seminary, who are not committed to celibacy, as is the same for heterosexual applicants who are not committed to celibacy. I hardly think that he used the words “deep-seated homosexual tendencies.” By now I believe he realizes the dangerous confusion and violence of closeted gay individuals and the host of mental disorders that likely accompany such individuals, as he has been dealing with overwhelming numbers such members of the curia and hierarchy. Because the alarming scandals that are becoming more evident are caused by the Catholic Catechism’s unsubstantiated antigay teachings entirely void of the science on homosexuality. We cannot expect people heed the warnings of science on “climate change” and the harm this negligence causes to millions of people - when the members of the curia and hierarchy obsessively refused to heed the science on homosexuality and tremendous lethal harm it causes to people globally. It is the Vatican’s absence of dialogue of the science on homosexuality - which is responsible for not only the harmful effect it causes, but is responsible for the spread of globalization - valuing profits over people. Looking for root cause of the Systemic Failures - will lead directly to the Catholic Catechism’s unsubstantiated antigay teachings that is entirely void of the science on homosexuality. Check the strength of Müller's reality testing or lack thereof.

Dolan has long history of being a significant part of the Systemic Failures as identified by corruption of Chilean bishops. Notice his absence of the science on homosexuality, and notice also the twisted meaning of love, his disguised pretense of attempting to buddy-up to Pope Francis, figuratively speaking, then stabbing him in the back. Pope Francis has already identified such two-face behaviors in his address to curia December 22, 2014 (https://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/speeches/2014/december/documents/papa-francesco_20141222_curia-romana.html).

Pope Francis to Gay Catholic: ‘God Made You This Way’
It was a private conversation, not a restatement of official dogma, but if the reports are true, it’s a revolution for the Catholic Church.
May 22, 2018
“I know I’m somebody, ’cause God don’t make no junk.”
…And now, in contradiction to official Catholic dogma, Pope Francis is reported to have said something similar to Juan Carlos Cruz, a Chilean gay man who was a victim of clerical sexual abuse 30 years ago and has become one of Chile’s leading spokesmen for abuse survivors.
“You have to be happy with who you are,” Cruz said the pope told him after he disclosed that he was gay. “God made you this way and loves you this way, and the pope loves you this way.”
This may not seem like a revolutionary statement, and indeed, there is still a long way to go before the Catholic Church affirms the lives of lesbians and gays…
But the more you know about what the pope said, the more powerful his statement becomes.
First, it comes in the context of the pontiff’s apologies for decades of clerical abuse and cover-ups, specifically in Chile, where he had previously defended the church hierarchy and shamed longtime victims of abuse. Cruz, in particular, was advised not to come forward because the church might blame him (after all, he was gay; he must have wanted to be abused) and expose his life to his family…
…Pope Francis’ message, albeit unofficial, could not be more different. “Be happy with who you are,” he is reported to have said; not, be like Christ and suffer. “God made you this way,” which means your desires cannot be contrary to God’s plan for the universe. On the contrary, they must be part of it…
…But “God made you this way” is more than “who am I to judge.” It’s an affirmation, not a negation. And whatever its doctrinal impact, it has already moved many gay Catholics to tears. And answered their prayers. Read complete article by JAY MICHAELSON: https://www.thedailybeast.com/pope-francis-to-gay-catholic-god-made-you-this-way

Juan Carlos Cruz, who was sexually abused, says pontiff told him God did not mind that he was gay 20 May 2018
A survivor of clerical sexual abuse has said Pope Francis told him that God had made him gay and loved him, in arguably the most strikingly accepting comments about homosexuality to be uttered by the leader of the Roman Catholic church.
Juan Carlos Cruz, who spoke privately with the pope last week about the abuse he suffered at the hands of one of Chile’s most notorious paedophiles, said the issue of his sexuality had arisen because some of the Latin American country’s bishops had sought to depict him as a pervert as they accused him of lying about the abuse.
“He told me, ‘Juan Carlos, that you are gay does not matter. God made you like this and loves you like this and I don’t care. The pope loves you like this. You have to be happy with who you are,’” Cruz told Spanish newspaper El País…
Bishops - Not Allowed to Become Experts - Hunting For Scapegoats i.e. Gay Priests
On Chilean abuse crisis, Francis says removing bishops is ‘needed’ but not enough - May 18, 2018
…The problems facing the Chilean Church today are not solved by “addressing the concrete cases and reducing them to the removal of people; this - and I say this clearly - must be done, but it’s not enough, we must go further.”
According to Francis, it would be “a serious omission” not to look into the roots and structures that allowed for the abuse - not only sexual, but also of power and conscience - to happen and to continue over time…
…Francis also says that the Chilean Church has become “elitist,” which he condemns by saying that no individual or “enlightened group” can pretend to “be the totality of the People of God.”He adds, “that elite or elitist psychology ends up generating dynamics of division, separation, ‘closed circles’ that lead to narcissistic and authoritarian spiritualities in which, instead of evangelizing, the important thing is to feel special, different from others, thus leaving in evidence that neither Jesus Christ nor others truly matter. Messianism, elitism, clericalism, are all synonymous of perversion in the ecclesial being.”
…“The gravity of the events doesn’t allow us to become expert hunters of ‘scapegoats,’” Francis said…
…Francis closes the document by saying that the only way to avoid the perpetuation of these acts in the future is by assuming this is a “problem of all of us and not one lived by some.” Read more: https://cruxnow.com/vatican/2018/05/18/on-chilean-abuses-crisis-francis-says-removing-bishops-is-needed-but-not-enough/

They said Francis spent over four hours with them, first saying Mass for them, then holding individual meetings, followed by a group meeting….

The Absence of

On Homosexuality
Someday, maybe, there will exist a well-informed, well considered and yet fervent public conviction that the most deadly of all possible sins is the mutilation of a child’s spirit.

…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!!! Read more: Part 4B

LGBTQ Youth At Higher Risk For Homelessness, Sex Trafficking
Jan 24, 2018
Jan 24, 2018
…Nationally, about 40 percent of homeless youth identify as LGBTQ. In Springfield, the average is higher - at 55 percent.
Reynolds says their sexual orientation is most likely the reason they ended up on the streets. Because they need shelter and food, homeless youth are a vulnerable target for labor and sex trafficking.
…”The biggest target right now is young gay men," said Reynolds.
It's a situation that can be even harder to spot. For any person looking from the outside, it can look like a normal relationship.
"A typical scenario would be if a young gay man would go to Martha's and then two or three days later he would tell me that he's been staying at an old gentleman's house," said Reynolds. "And everything was going great for a while, and then the older gentleman started asking for favors in return for staying there. That's sex trafficking."

"And everything was going great for a while, and then the older gentleman started asking for favors in return for staying there. That's sex trafficking."
The situation can escalate and go as far as that person forcing the youth to perform favors for others in exchange for shelter and other goods.
"A lot of the at-risk population that we have are the ones that are engaging in that survival sex, or having to give something in order to have a place to stay, and we would consider that unsafe housing," said Sudduth.
Reynolds says young gay men are also less likely to report.
"That's the last thing they're going to do, is to tell someone that they are being taken advantage of every night by another person," said Reynolds.
Reynolds believes what they are fighting are overwhelming religious implications in the area.
"It's sort of top heavy. There really isn't another answer. It's either this religion or not," she said. "It's difficult to fight that money and that power when that's what existed for so long. It sort of tends to lead a blind eye to what's happening on the underside of society."
"No one chooses to be homeless. No one chooses to be taken advantage of by an older gentleman. No one chooses to be sex trafficked," said Reynolds. "We've got to get past the religion oppression. It cannot matter anymore what you believe religiously, you have to look at them as a human being. It's that simple.”…

July 12, 2017
Bishop David J. Walkowiak
Bishop of the Grand Rapids Diocese
360 Division Avenue S.,
Grand Rapids, MI 49503-4501
Dear Bishop David,
I received your letter dated October 2015, that included a request to set an appointment to dialogue with you. At the time, my commitments,obligations and lack of financial means did not permit me to follow through. Furthermore, the around trip from Canton, MI to Grand Rapids, MI would have been about eight hours. However, after seeking reliable spiritual direction I was advised to write a letter to accept your request to meet. In the process of writing this letter, I began to thoroughly research the situation, from the combined insight obtained from three professionals perspectives, as a priest, as a psychologist, and as a historian. Through these perspectives, I have analyzed the many ways in which I was a victim of antigay hierarchal violence, having no judicial oversight to appeal to for protection within the church or civilly. This is an unidentified form of structural violence directed not at me alone but also many priests, theologians, sisters, religious and others, including Pope Francis for the past four decades - all have been victims of this form of violence.
S t r u c t u r a l V i o l e n c e
Introduction
by Deborah Du Nann Winter and Dana C. Leighton
Peace, conflict, and violence: Peace psychology in the 21st century
…Direct violence is horrific, but its brutality usually gets our attention: we notice it, and often respond to it. Structural violence, however, is almost always invisible, embedded in ubiquitous social structures, normalized by stable institutions and regular experience. Structural violence occurs whenever people are disadvantaged by political, legal, economic, or cultural traditions. Because they are longstanding, structural inequities usually seem ordinary—the way things are and always have been. But structural violence produces suffering and death as often as direct violence does, though the damage is slower, more subtle, more common, and more difficult to repair. The chapters in this section teach us about some important but invisible forms of structural violence, and alert us to the powerful cultural mechanisms that create and maintain them over generations…
One outcome of exclusionary thinking is the belief that victims of violence must in some way deserve their plight. But certainly it is easy to see that young children do not deserve to be victims…
Section II: Winter, D. D., & Leighton, D. C. (2001). Structural violence. In D. J. Christie, R. V. Wagner, & D. D. Winter (Eds.), Peace, conflict, and violence: Peace psychology in the 21st century. New York: Prentice-Hall.
The main purpose of this form of structural violence is to silence and remove anyone in the Church who openly discusses the science on the sexual orientation of homosexuality - gay people. This antigay hierarchical, structural violence has been successful in firmly suppressing this science on homosexuality for the past 60 years. In 1957, world renowned psychologist, Dr. Evelyn Hooker conducted ground breaking research proving that homosexuality is not a mental illness. She proved that being homosexual was just as normal as being heterosexual. For years the hierarchical church has rebuked such scientifically sound findings and have championed the obsessive suppression of gay people. Such actions lead to question who benefits from falsifying truth? The hierarchical church did not suppress the scientific research on heart surgery or cancer for the past 60 years. This vicious form of gay suppression is entrenched in the corruption of the curia in which speaking the truth has become a reprehensible thing. Through my years of analysis, I have come to find that the greatest harm this suppression imposes is on our children.
Truly I tell you, unless you
change and become like little children,
you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this
child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
And whoever welcomes one such child in
my name welcomes me.
Matthew 18: 3-5
…whoever causes one of these
little ones
who believe in Me to stumble,
it would be better for him
to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck,
and to be drowned in the
depth of the sea.
Matthew 18:6
My “coming out” in March 1997 was all based on substantiated science and scripture. Furthermore, it was motivated to protect defenseless children. How did risking my life by coming out warrant such extreme vindictive retaliation for the past 20 years by members of the curia and hierarchy?
How did it get twisted around that I refused to return to the Grand Rapids Dioceses, when in fact, it was made clear to me that it was unsafe for me to return by their coercing me to acquiesce to being sent away to be re-educated on the science on the sexual orientation of homosexuality. They wanted me to leave the priesthood on my own, which would be another grave sin to commit. Since I had no recourse to appeal to for justice in 1997 - what recourse would I have available to me if I returned and more severe immoral tactics were used against me?
This tactic of the curia to dispose of someone was most recently demonstrated by Cardinal Raymond Burke firing Boeselager the Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Malta. Burke falsified a papal decision of Pope Francis that no one was to be fired, that the problematic issues with the Knights of Malta should be resolved through dialogue. Burke without any true dialogue with Boeselager stated that it was Pope Francis’s wish that he resign as the Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Malta. When Boeselager refused to resign because of “unreasonable circumstances,” Burke fired him on the grounds of disobedience. Sound familiar? Boeselager, then appealed directly to Pope Francis and an investigation was ordered into the firing of Boeselager. It was later exposed that the grounds that Burke had used against Boeselager were over “condoms.” However, this information was contrived by a group of Burke’s supporters known as “Lepanto Institute for the Restoration of All Things in Christ.” This group is described as a “militant traditionalist organization close to Burke (Austen Ivereigh).” “This ultraconservative organization specialized in the denunciation of "gays” entering the Church and in attacks on the major development associations that question unfettered economic liberalism (La Croix International).” On February 4, 2017, Pope Francis replaced Cardinal Burke as the Patron of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta and overnight all over Rome appeared posters of Pope Francis with a sad expression with the words - “Where is your mercy?”
It was the truth from science and religion that morally obligated me to come out for the protection of children growing up gay in March 1997. This was an act of love and my duty as a priest. It is the true meaning of being a priest. Pope Francis on Thursday, June 22, 2017 in his homily during Mass at Casa Santa Marta confirmed this fact stating,"The Good Shepherd gives his life for his sheep,” using as an example the parish priest of Barbiana, Fr. Don Milani, the from the Diocese of Firenze (Florence).
The research to find the answers to these questions endlessly kept unfolding more and more information that led back in time - more than a century and a half. The research doors were opened wide once Pope Francis was elected and he along with his team of experts, and cardinals began reforming the curia. The research revealed two main historical events that were dependent on exploiting societal prejudices against gay people to rise and to stay in power. The, first, began with the ideology of Nazism promoted by Hitler and the Nazi regime that led to the deaths of 70 million people unprecedented in human history. The, second, began the with ideology of the “trickle-down theory” known as Reaganomics that led to Globalization and the greatest inequality in human history - “A world where 1% of humanity controls as much wealth as the bottom 99% will never be stable (President Obama’s departing speech to the UN General Assembly September 2016).‟ Ian Kershaw explains what Hitler’s place in history will be:
…Primarily, as the inspiration of the most lethal and destructive war in history, and of the most terrible genocidethe world has ever seen. He left behind him not just physical, but also moral, ruination such as history has never previously experienced. He represented an extreme pathology of modern society. He showed us the most radical face of modern inhumanity – how an advanced society can undergo a breathtaking descent into modern barbarity that’s quite without precedent. That’s what, with the passage of time, we can see was historically defining about Hitler. Never before Hitler’s time had we seen so clearly what human beings are capable of…
…we shouldn’t mystify Hitler’s personality. The uniquenessof Nazism can’t be reduced to that strange personality. Another time, another place, and Hitler would have had no impact at all. He couldn’t have derailed a modern society without that society itself making a major contribution to its own fate… We shouldn’t be complacent about the future. New forms of fascism and racial intolerance rightly appal and worry us…
…what we can do is to remind ourselves of the essential point about Hitler: he represented the most fundamental and frontal assault ever launched on all that we associate with humanity and civilisation.
Excerpt from: - Hitler’s Place in History - Ian Kershaw
Professor of Modern History at Sheffield University
Lecture - Wednesday 27th April 2005
Over the past year and a half - I have been researching and writing 24/7, since I received your letter - gathering significant amounts of factual data on all three levels (as a priest, psychologist and historian). This research includes my personal experience of being a victim of the hierarchical, antigay violence. As it happens when I do research, such as it did when I was doing the qualitative research on the Holocaust in graduate school for psychology, it is only after thoroughly exhausting every possible avenue several times do all the pieces begin to fall into place like a jigsaw puzzle that a picture is formed.
The picture centers on the crucial importance for the safety and well-being of all of humanity present and on into the future and is dependent on maintaining an ongoing dialogue between science and religion. This is necessary to obtain truth that which then gives meaning and value to love. Without this truth formed through this process -
…Love becomes an empty shell, to be filled in an arbitrary way. In a culture without truth, this is the fatal risk facing love. It falls prey to contingent subjective emotions and opinions, the word “love” is abused and distorted,to the point where it comes to mean the opposite…
Benedict XVI - Caritas in Veritate 2007 2009
Pope Benedict XVI goes on to make the warning that “Any breachin this dialogue comes only at an enormous price to human development…” St. Pope John Paul II made an early statement to this effect explaining how science and religion cannot be separated. He explains - as Benedict does that science is the study of all of God’s creation and religion is formed from the bible, which is the inspired word of God. They both explain how the dialogue between science and religion becomes a self-correcting mechanism of oversight, preventing abuse and maintaining integrity of both science and religion - thus allowing science and religion to guide us on our journey into the future. Both John Paul II and Benedict XVI are writing from their experience having lived through the atrocities of Hitler and the Nazi regime (1933-1945) that resulted from their manipulation and abuse of science and religion to invent a pseudo-science to legitimize Hitler’s ideology of Nazism and pseudo-religious terms to promote it. They experienced living in a social environment saturated in the racial ideology of Nazism - where the meaning of love was so twisted around that in actuality love meant the opposite. Love meant exterminating people considered to be less than human or subhuman - “Life Unworthy Of Life.”
With the recent election of President Trump we are experiencing living in a similar social environment saturated with the ideology of the “trickle-down theory.” This led to Globalization that was also legitimized by the manipulation of science and religion that twisted the meaning of love around to mean the exact opposite. In addition to Mr. Trump’s behavior, the Republican Convention 2016 slogans, “Lock her up!” (that sounded like the palpable hysteria of the Nazi Party “Sieg Heil” chant at a Cathedral lit Nuremberg Rally of the 1930s) and his being elected US president are all blatant examples of love twisted to mean the opposite. Both the rise of Nazism and Globalization were depended on the exploitation of societal prejudices against gay people.
However, in regards to rise of the “trickle-down theory”of the 1980s that led to Globalization - the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy are responsible for the exploitation of societal prejudices against gay people. The research of Dr. Evelyn Hooker and subsequent research completely dispel prejudices against gay people. Instead of the curia and hierarchy acknowledging the truth of this science - they manipulated religion by misusing the bible and continued to wrongly condemn homosexuality. Thus they twisted the meaning of truth around to the point that it continues to mean the opposite. They and their supporters are not about truth and therefore not about love. They are no different than the palpable hysteria of the Nazi Party “Sieg Heil” members at the Nuremberg Rallies of the 1930s. And this is the violence, their twisted meaning of truth - the complete absence of love, they have used against me and against so many others before and after me. Some of our best and brightest theologians and bridge makers, such as, Sister Jeannine Gramick and Fr. Robert Nugent. Gramick and Nugent have been responsible since 1977 for saving millions of people’s lives, especially very young children. To the best of my knowledge, they were the first to begin an ongoing dialogue on the science of the sexual orientation of homosexuality - gay people and religion - scripture and theology.
S c i e n c e can purify religion from error and superstition;
R e l i g i o n can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes.
Each can draw the other into a wider world,
a world in which both can flourish.
For the truth of the matter is that the Church and the scientific
community will inevitably interact; their options
do not include isolation.
St. Pope John Paul II - 1988
I came out in March 1997: for the protection of children, as young as 4 and 5 years of age, who are growing up gay. Since then it has become a moral obligation to educate and prevent forced parental suppression and unsubstantiated antigay social and religious norms.What has bothered me ever since was the fact that I found it difficult to find the r o o t c a u s e in understanding “how” and “why” and “when” did the meaning of “love” and “truth” get so monumentally - twisted around; notably among the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy to mean the exact opposite.
For the past 10 years I have been writing in an effort to explain how this mindless inquisition that started almost immediately after coming out in June 1997 - of being coerced “behind closed doors” by a directive from the curia conveyed by the bishop for me to acquiesce to being sent away “somewhere” to be re-educated on the science on the sexual orientation of homosexuality. This directive was not only shocking, but traumatizing as well.
This irrational directive from the curia completely negated the immediate need of protecting the lives of millions of very young defenseless children from lifelong debilitating harmful effects. It also negated the wealth of the authoritative substantiated research gathered from the major medical and mental health associations, institutions, and organizations, including universities. This was the reason for my “coming out.”
Through knowledge acquired during my studies at the University of Michigan and attending the American Psychological Association National Conventions my research was reinforced on the science of sexual orientation. The action of the curia and hierarchy was a blatant affront, a direct attack on truth and love, as taught and embodied in Jesus Christ, of which the entire purpose and meaning of priesthood is based on. It was like a supervisor telling a heart surgeon that he is going to be be sent away on a sabbatical to be reeducated on the ancient system of medicine known as “bloodletting.” I cannot explain how twisted it sounded - to be told such absurdity!!! “Who in the hell is running this ship?!?” I was 47 years old at the time.
How did the curia and hierarchy cause a breach in the dialogue between science and religion that ended up twisting the meaning of love around to mean the opposite?
We will learn from studying the - science on sexual orientation that it is composed of interrelated biological and psychological processes that are not able to be consciously controlled or suppressed. These interrelated processes function outside our conscious awareness - automatically and continuously throughout life as part of the autonomic nervous system - like the heart beating and breathing. The continuous functioning of our sexual orientation - is essential in meeting our most basic human need for love, attachment, intimacy, through which empathy is developed. The continuous functioning of our sexual orientation is as vital to human survival from the beginning of life to the end - as the heart beating and breathing. Any attempt to force the suppression of a child’s gay sexual orientation is the same as suppressing the heart and breathing rate which can cause a number of lifelong adverse effects (persistent form of depression (dysthymia), suicidal ideation, and obsessive dislike for gay people that is implicit, to explicit verbal expressions of hate, to lethal forms of violence, and torture).
The majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy are European. They are the ones who grew up in the toxic antigay social environments left behind by Hitler’s Nazi regime. This begins to explain the long history of the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy’s collective obsessive antigay crusade. This collective thought suppressed all emerging science on homosexuality for the past 60 years. For these members of the curia and hierarchy the thought of gay science has been a long closed door slammed shut in their early childhood years. This was out of great fear from their witnessing the terror in the adult’s warnings of how Hitler treated priests who were found out to be homosexuals. As this trauma of the early childhood events are not remembered, only the emotional terror of the event remains. It is this emotional terror that is wronglymistaken as an innate guiding voice of their conscience strongly conveying to them that homosexuality is evil. This misunderstanding then becomes a force that completely obliterates years of scientific research on homosexuality. It is more likely that such scientific research ignites seemingly unending waves of unexplainable terror. That door slammed tightly shut - is the breach in the dialogue between science and religion on the issue of homosexuality. This is a childhood defense mechanism. It is the only means available to the child to stop the unending waves of fear. However, as adults, these childhood defenses must be reexamined in a safe environment - to be challenged in the adult dialogue between science and religion on issues of homosexuality. As Pope Benedict XVI explains, this is the only process to find truth and give real value and meaning to the understanding of love. I do not presume this to be an easy task to unravel and should only be attempted in a safe environment. However, this situation - is not unusual - it brings to mind the words of St. Paul to be understood with great care and empathy.
When I was a child, I talked like a child,
I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.
1 Corinthians 13:11
No, no, no this type of breach in the dialogue between science and religion on gay sexual orientation has to stop! Justice demands that I be exonerated and proper restitution be made for all harm endured, including the lost salary for the past 20 years to be made quickly. Not to follow through on this road of true justice is to continue this breach in the dialogue between science and religion on gay sexual orientation. Am I, like so many others, going to be made an example of what happens when a priest speaks aloud the truth? Will this be a situation reminiscent of Hitler’s regime to remove and silence Anti-Nazi priests? Are you going demonstrate publicly how an advanced society of people made a major contribution to the modern barbarity of Hitler and the Nazi regime by their complicity and indifference?
My moral obligation as a priest is to protect people, especially children.
I look forward to setting a time to dialogue the reality of this situation in the light of the warnings of both St. Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI while maintaining an open discussion between science and religion for the search of truth that leads to love.
Sincerely yours,

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
...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.
As Church Shifts, a Cardinal Welcomes Gays; They Embrace a ‘Miracle’
The New York Times
June 13, 2017
NEWARK — The word “pilgrimage” usually evokes visions of far-off, exotic places, but for some 100 gay and lesbian Catholics and their families, a pilgrimage to the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart here on a recent Sunday was more like a homecoming.
The doors to the cathedral were opened to them, and they were welcomed personally by the leader of the Archdiocese of Newark, Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin. They were seated on folding chairs at the cathedral’s center, in front of the altar in the towering sanctuary, under the blue-tinted glow of stained glass.
“I am Joseph, your brother,” Cardinal Tobin told the group, which included lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Catholics from around New York and the five dioceses in New Jersey. “I am your brother, as a disciple of Jesus. I am your brother, as a sinner who finds mercy with the Lord.”
The welcoming of a group of openly gay people to Mass by a leader of Cardinal Tobin’s standing in the Roman Catholic Church in this country would have been unthinkable even five years ago. But Cardinal Tobin, whom Pope Francis appointed to Newark last year, is among a small but growing group of bishops changing how the American church relates to its gay members. They are seeking to be more inclusive and signaling to subordinate priests that they should do the same…
Four years ago, Pope Francis shook the Catholic world with his comment about gay priests seeking the Lord: “Who am I to judge?” But it was unclear how his words would affect Catholics seeking acceptance in the pews…
But gestures like Cardinal Tobin’s are evidence that Pope Francis’ words are having an impact…Read more: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/13/nyregion/catholic-church-gays-mass-newark-cathedral.html?_r=0

DR. EVELYN HOOKER
In the USA, 1957, Evelyn Hooker’s most notable and ground breaking research proving that homosexuality is not a mental illness was completed called:-
in which she administered several psychological tests to groups of self-identified male homosexuals and heterosexuals and asked experts to identify the homosexuals and rate their mental health. The experiment, which other researchers subsequently repeated, argues that homosexuality is not a mental disorder, as there was no detectable difference between homosexual and heterosexual men in terms of mental adjustment...

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

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…

AUSCHWITZ -- CHRISTMAS 2008 -- A flashback far more severe than in --- BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN
December 26, 2008 – Fr. Marty Kurylowicz
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 not identified 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

Pope Francis Dines with DC Homeless for Lunch
September 24, 2015
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- He's been called the pope of the poor. And on Thursday he spoke directly to those who have gone without.
"In prayer there is no first or second class," Pope Francis said. "There is brotherhood."
He shared his message of hope with people who work directly with the poor and some of the needy they serve, like Lanita King, a former drug addict who once was homeless.
"It felt like energy went right through my hand. He touched it and grabbed it," King recalled.
King was one of many who connected with the pope and felt blessed.
"He is delivering the message that God is here for us. God is here with us," she said.
…And if there were any question about the pope's priorities, he passed up a lunch in his honor on Capitol Hill to come here and spend time with the less fortunate.
