In 1975, Selma Fraiberg, a clinical social worker and child psychoanalyst, introduced the metaphor of “ghosts in the nursery.” This concept refers to the relationship between a parent’s early, often negative experience of the way they were raised and their own parenting style. Young children who are abused by their parents can exhibit similar behaviors when they become parents themselves. Sometimes they have repressed the abuse, sometimes it’s what they consider to be “normal” because it’s how they were raised. These “ghosts” can reappear throughout generations, contributing to a cycle of abuse. Trauma-informed therapy like TI-CPP helps parents to recognize ghosts from their past so that they and their children can heal together.

Trauma can have a profound influence on growth and development, leading to developmental disruptions…

Hitler. 1936-1945: Nemesis

Ian Kershaw 2001

…In February 1937 Hitler made it plain to his inner circle that he did not want a ‘Church struggle’ at this juncture. The time was not ripe for it…The anti-clericalism and anti-Church sentiments of the grass-roots Party activists simply could not be eradicated…The stranglehold that the Churches maintained over the values and mentalities of large sections of the population was an obvious thorn in the side of a Movement with its own highly intolerant ‘world-view’, which saw itself as making a total claim on soul as well as body. The assault on the practices and institutions of the Christian Churches was deeply embedded in the psyche of National Socialism…

At the same time, the activists could draw on the verbal violence of Party leaders towards the Churches for their encouragement. Goebbels’s

orchestrated attacks on the clergy through the

staged

[“smoke scene”]

‘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 license 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’

(Untergan), and that the Churches must yield to the ‘primacy of the state’, railing against any compromise with ‘the most horrible institution imaginable’…However, he indicated that at some point in the future Church and state would be separated, the Concordat of 1933 between the Reich and the Vatican dissolved (to provide the regime with a free hand), and the entire force of the Party turned to ‘the destruction of the clerics (Pfaffen)’…

Addressing the Gauleiter in mid-March, Hitler announced that he wanted ‘no ordinary victory’ over the Churches. Either one should keep quiet about an opponent (totschweigen), or slay him (totschlagen), was how he put it. In April, Goebbels reported with satisfaction that the Führer was becoming more radical in the ‘Church Question’, and had approved the start of the ‘immorality trials’ against clergy. Goebbels noted Hitler’s verbal attacks on the clergy and his satisfaction with the propaganda campaign on several subsequent occasions over the following few weeks… Photo

inquisitors led to decades of

40 YEARS LATER

RECOGNIZING

DIGNITY

LGBTQ

COMMUNITY

and of

EVERYONE

Pope Francis in an interview Jan. 24, 2023, acknowledged that Catholic bishops in some parts of the world support laws that criminalize homosexuality or discriminate against the LGBTQ community…he attributed attitudes to

CULTURE BACKGROUND,

and said bishops in particular need to undergo a process of change to recognize the dignity of everyone.

The Vatican’s teachings on homosexuality have not been renounced, but Pope Francis has brought to light the next best thing by eliminating the harsh total condemnation of a human being, gay human beings. Pope Francis did this by applying Catholic morality that homosexuals were excluded from. Pope Francis began this process by restoring the Human Dignity of homosexuals, as human beings thus ending the curia’s and the Roman Catholic Hierarchy’s pervasive blind (homosexual dissociation) acceptable practice of the Nazi dehumanization of homosexuals that considered them to be less than human, “Untermenschen — subhumans — and as such were excluded from the system of moral rights and obligations that bind humankind together (excerpt from - NPR “Less Than Human by David Livingstone Smith.” https://www.npr.org/2011/03/29/134956180/criminals-see-their-victims-as-less-than-human).”

Homosexuals were and still are considered less than human beginning in 1981 by the Vatican's curia and by the majority of the RC hierarchy and therefore homosexuals were excluded from the applications of Catholic morality. Pope Francis broke through this blind acceptable

dehumanizing

practice by restoring human dignity to homosexuals.

https://kidshelpline.com.au/teens/issues/all-about-respect#:~:text=Respect%20means%20that%20you%20accept,it%20is%20something%20you%20learn.

Pope Francis has achieved neutralizing rendering these Vatican teachings on homosexuality harmless to gay people by placing these teachings in the perspective of Catholic morality. Pope Francis by applying, what has blatantly been completely neglected by the RC hierarchy - Pope Francis adds a humane, a fuller more comprehensive understanding of homosexuality that includes taking into account the science of homosexuality he has demonstrated how the key concepts of FREEDOM and INTENTION

shields gay people from the harsh total condemnation contained in the Vatican’s teachings on homosexuality.

Pope Benedict XVI

Caritas in veritate

In essence, fundamentally, what Pope Francis has done was the natural inclusion of the science of homosexuality into the dialogue between science and religion as detailed in Pope Benedict XVI’s Caritas in veritate that renders truth that leads to love. Pope Francis brought the science of homosexuality into the dialogue with

Catholic morality. What resulted is the scientific fact that sexual orientation is: (1) NOT FREELY chosen, also (a) it functions 24/7 under the control of the autonomic nervous system, which is OUT of a person’s conscious control i.e. heart beating, breathing, and (2) the INTENTION of sexual orientation is to meet our crucial most basic human need - to love and to be loved, to feel as one with another human being, therefore, the Catholic morality applied to the above constitutes NO SIN involved.

Regarding the above, Pope Francis changed no Church teaching nor did he add anything to Church teaching. What Pope Francis most importantly did was that he restored

plain human respect

to homosexuals and applied Catholic morality that was denied to them for decades.

Why is respect important?

Receiving respect from others is important because it helps us to feel safe and to express ourselves.

Being respected by important people in our lives growing up teaches us how to be respectful toward others.

Respect means that you accept somebody for who they are, even when they’re different from you or you don’t agree with them.

Respect in your relationships builds feelings of trust, safety, and wellbeing.

Respect doesn’t have to come naturally – it is something you learn.

A brief Tango History

by Murray Pfeffer

The Tango, often called 'The Argentine Tango', is Argentina's contribution to the world of dance. The Tango came from the brothels and low cafes of Buenos Aires at the turn of the century [1900]. However, at it's very beginning, it was a ballet-like dance between two men, which, just a little later, became the obscene dance of the brothels where both men and women had the opportunity to rub their bodies together. Over the years, the Tango has changed becoming an elegant and stylish dance evoking a picture of high society, with women in sleek glittering evening gowns and men in tuxedos and tails…

Restores

Human Dignity

Homosexuals

Removed

Hitler and the Nazi regime 1937

What Pope Francis did first was to restore the human dignity to homosexuals - as human being created by God! The Nazi regime had dehumanized homosexuals - as less than human not deserving to share in the rights and privileges as shared by the rest of humanity ().

…Thinking sets the agenda for action, and thinking of humans as less than human paves the way for atrocity. The Nazis were explicit about the status of their victims. They were Untermenschen — subhumans — and as such were excluded from the system of moral rights and obligations that bind humankind together. It's wrong to kill a person, but permissible to exterminate a rat. To the Nazis, all the Jews, Gypsies and others were rats: dangerous, disease-carrying rats.

Jews were the main victims of this genocidal project. From the beginning, Hitler and his followers were convinced that the Jewish people posed a deadly threat to all that was noble in humanity. In the apocalyptic Nazi vision, these putative enemies of civilization were represented as parasitic organisms — as leeches, lice, bacteria, or vectors of contagion. "Today," Hitler proclaimed in 1943, "international Jewry is the ferment of decomposition of peoples and states, just as it was in antiquity. It will remain that way as long as peoples do not find the strength to get rid of the virus." Both the death camps (the gas chambers of which were modeled on delousing chambers) and the Einsatzgruppen (paramilitary death squads that roamed across Eastern Europe followed in the wake of the advancing German army) were responses to what the Nazis perceived to be a lethal pestilence…

…In July 1933 Pope Pius XI shocked the democratic world by signing a concordat with Hitler, which was very favorable to the rights of the Catholic churches in the German states. The Nazis had no intention of keeping this agreement and gradually moved towards outright repression [of the Catholic Church]; they staged prosecutions of monks for homosexuality, with the maximum of publicity.

This Nazi ideology "Thinking" specifically related to dehumanizing only homosexuals crept into the

Vatican, the curia and eventually throughout the majority of the RC hierarchy all through Pope Benedict XVI starting in 1981 when he was appointed Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. Pope Benedict XVI was a child in his early childhood years growing up in Nazi Germany 1937 when he witnessed Hitler’s fierce public attacks against anti-nazi outspoken Catholic priests falsely accusing them of being homosexuals (at that time in Germany being a homosexual was a crime) - to avoid public outrage so that these anti-nazi priests could be silenced by removing them from their parishes to

re-education camps, the beginnings of the Nazi Concentration Camps. Pope Benedict XVI was a very severe example of how HOMOSEXUAL

DISSOCIATION begins in the traumatizing dehumanizing

anti-gay early childhood

years, how the lifelong harmful effects that includes how traumatizing violence is reenacted

unchecked continuously on others in their adult years - are lasting throughout life (Pope Benedict XVI from 1981 to the present).

Fr. Marty Kurylowicz

In December 2008, I wrote about the traumatization that I experienced while doing graduate research on the Holocaust and how

…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 [Pope Benedict XVI] position would not be doing this consciously or intentionally…

…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?…

…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?

Pope Francis

October 13, 2022

Dear Pope Francis,

I need your immediate help. I have been abandoned in my forced retirement and significant declining health years of safe housing and care.

My name is Fr. Martin (Marty) Kurylowicz, from Grand Rapids, Michigan USA.

In March 1997, based on extensive and exhaustive

scientific and biblical evidence, I came out as a gay Catholic priest, for the protection of very young children globally who grow up to be gay, from social environments infected with extreme antigay social and religious norms not based on science or an unbiased interpretation of the bible that causes them lifelong lasting psychological harmful effects, i.e. to become dissociated from their gay sexual orientation, destroying their ability to form lifelong life-giving relationships and entrapping them in any number of non-criminal gay adult sexual addictions, further deforming their personalities (cf. foot binding).

The majority of the members of the Roman Catholic hierarchy have demonstrated that they are dissociated from their gay sexual orientation by their obsessive public antigay rhetoric and their excessive gay adult sexual addictive behaviors (“50 shades of gay”) - indicating that they are more than likely - adult childhood abuse victims of growing up in the above described antigay social and religious environments (pdf “Ghosts in the Nursery” Selma Fraiberg) for which I came out in March 1997 to protect children from, globally.

This Roman Catholic hierarchy’s obsessive antigay dissociated rhetoric and behavior has become their dominating organizational culture, identifiable by the complete absence of science on homosexuality sexual orientation. For example: after my coming out March 1997, I was ordered by the Vatican to be sent away to be re-educated on the subject of homosexuality sexual orientation though void of the science. This directive from the Vatican mirrored exactly the same directive employed by the Nazis 1937 to silence the out-spoken anti-nazi Catholic priests, who were arrested and sent away to re-education camps - later called the concentration camps. Pope Benedict XVI was a 10 years old child growing up in this extreme antigay Nazi social environment. Further demonstrating the extent of the lifelong lasting psychological harmful effects of have been raised in antigay social and religious environments.

My coming out, March 1997, based on science that severely threatened the Roman Catholic hierarchy’s obsessive antigay dissociated state of mind, blatantly exposing the true facts of their trying to repress the 24/7 normal natural functioning of autonomic nervous system (that operates outside of any conscious control i.e. heart beating, breathing) of their homosexuality sexual orientation has created and continues to create for them near intolerable anxiety. It made me their immediate target to be removed and the need to greatly destroy my reputation - in order to alleviate their intolerable levels of anxiety of having to consciously acknowledge the truth that they are homosexuals.

Justice demands that I be publicly restored to the status that of a “priest in good standing” not for my own sake but for the safety and well-being of the future lives of millions of children, globally.

My immediate need having been abandoned in my forced retirement and significant declining health years is for safe housing and care.

Sincerely yours in Christ,

Fr. Marty Kurylowicz

Oh, please, let’s not start with that baloney and blasphemy about “Canon law closely linked to Church’s salvific mission.” The application of canon law is greatly obstructed through the (1) pervasive homosexual dissociation mindset of the majority of the individual members of the RC hierarchy consumed and operating in the (2) dominant organizational culture of the curia that is also the homosexual dissociation attitude. The supporting examples of the above are endless e.g. Juan Cruz/Chile affair, the curia's antigay backstory to the “Who am I to judge?” statement.

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

childhood

often

persist

into young adulthood, middle age and even senescence, leading many gay people to conceal important aspects of themselves...

“Hiding

and passing as heterosexual becomes a lifelong moral hatred of the self; a maze of corruptions,

petty lies, and half truths that

spoil

social relations in

family

and friendship

(Herdt and Boxer, 1993)...

those perceived to be gay serves several functions...

efforts

to maintain

psychological

In other words, it is an

Excerpts

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

Hiding activities

learned

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.

If and when same-sex feelings and attractions can no longer be kept out of consciousness, the individual becomes homosexually self-aware. Individuals to whom this happens can acknowledge some aspect of their homosexuality to themselves. While homosexually self-aware people might consider accepting and integrating these feelings into their public persona, acceptance is not a pre-determined outcome. For example, a religious, homosexually self-aware man may choose a celibate life to avoid what, for him, would be the problematic integration of his religious and sexual identities.

Individuals who are either consciously prepared to act on their homoerotic feelings or to reveal a homosexual identity to others usually define themselves as gay or lesbian. To be gay, in contrast to being homosexually self-aware, is to claim a normative identity. In other words, defining oneself as gay usually requires some measure of

self-acceptance.

A gay person may choose to come out to family or intimate acquaintances. Others may come out to people they have met in the gay community while keeping their gay identity separate from the rest of their lives.

Another homosexual identity is the non-gay-identified individual. These people have experienced homosexual self-awareness, may have acted on their feelings, and may have even once identified as gay or lesbian. However, such individuals find it difficult, if not impossible, to naturalize their same-sex feelings and attractions. While recognizing their homosexual feelings, these individuals reject the feelings and, despite the low odds of success, may even seek to change their sexual orientation (Shidlo et al., 2001).

The above classification of homosexual identities privileges the role of self-definition. These identities are not mutually exclusive; there is often overlap between and differing motivations within them. They are shaped by individual and cultural factors. Consequently, when individuals become homosexually self-aware, there is a wide range of psychosocially constructed attitudes and responses they may develop toward their own homosexuality. For example, a homosexually self-aware man may initially identify himself as gay but then regret that decision and return to his earlier practices of hiding. Another may choose a non-gay identity, attempt a "sexual conversion" therapy, but then later decide to accept his homosexual feelings and come out.

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)…

The Closet and

Gay-Bashing

For some gay men,

"Hiding

and passing as heterosexual becomes a lifelong moral hatred of the self; a maze of corruptions,

petty lies, and half truths that

spoil

social relations in

family

and friendship"

(Herdt and Boxer, 1993). There are many gay men who, before they came out, were either "gay-baiters" or "gay-bashers" themselves.

Attacking

those perceived to be gay serves several functions. One penile plethysmography study indicated that men with strong antihomosexual beliefs actually had

significant

homosexual

arousal

patterns (Adams et al., 1996). Strong antihomosexual feelings may represent an effort to control perceptions of a gay-basher's own sexual identity. This might translate as, "If I attack gay people, no one will think I am gay." Psychoanalysts call this defense "identification with the aggressor" (Freud, 1966). It may represent intrapsychic

efforts

to maintain

psychological

distance

from one's

own

homoerotic

feelings.

In other words, it is an

effort

strengthen

dissociative

tendencies…

A brief Tango History

by Murray Pfeffer

The Tango, often called 'The Argentine Tango', is Argentina's contribution to the world of dance. The Tango came from the brothels and low cafes of Buenos Aires at the turn of the century. However, at it's very beginning, it was a ballet-like dance between two men, which, just a little later, became the obscene dance of the brothels where both men and women had the opportunity to rub their bodies together. Over the years, the Tango has changed becoming an elegant and stylish dance evoking a picture of high society, with women in sleek glittering evening gowns and men in tuxedos and tails…

After

Jesus had finished all his sayings in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.

A centurion there had a slave whom he valued highly, and who was ill and close to death. When he heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to him, asking him to come and heal his slave. When they came to Jesus, they appealed to him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy of having you do this for him, for he loves our people, and it is he who built our synagogue for

us.”

And Jesus went with them, but when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to say to him,

“Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you come under my roof;

therefore I did not presume to come to you. But only speak the word, and let my servant be healed. For I also am a man set under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this,’ and the slave does

it.”

When Jesus heard this he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd that followed him, he said,

“I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith.”

When those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the slave in good health.

Caritas in veritate

Caritas in veritate

...Without truth, charity degenerates into sentimentality. Love becomes an empty shell, to be filled in an arbitrary way. In a culture without truth, this is the fatal risk facing love. It falls prey to contingent subjective emotions and opinions, the word “love” is abused and distorted, to the point where it comes to mean the opposite. Truth frees charity from the constraints of an emotionalism that deprives it of relational and social content, and of a fideism that deprives it of human and universal breathing-space…

…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…

ABSENCE

of the

SCIENCE

HUMAN

SEXUALITY

When we consider the adult proven science demonstrating the sheer enormity of the degree of diversity regarding the lasting individuality of DNA, that is able to identify individuals through the centuries of time, but when it comes to considering the science regarding the complexity of human sexuality (i.e. sexual orientation, homosexuality) that also demonstrates the enormity of the degree of diversity that exists, as it does with DNA, including finger prints - the sophistication level of adult understanding among a majority of the Roman Catholic bishops and others - significantly drops off to the level that of a child. They just refuse to believe the science. Instead, they cling to their unsubstantiated childhood beliefs about human sexuality. It is as ridiculous as reducing the adult technology of the smart phone - to a child’s perception of talking on

two cans and a

string!!!

What accounts for this drastic mindset change from an adult understanding of reality to that of magical thinking of a child regarding human sexuality (i.e. sexual orientation, homosexuality)? The distortion of the reality of human sexuality can be explained through the mental process of dissociation, the years of the lasting effect of this dissociation strongly appears to be a stagnation of the psychological stages of human development - not reaching the adult stage. The cause of this stagnation is the BREACH - the absence of the SCIENCE regarding human sexuality (i.e. sexual orientation, homosexuality) resulting in the antigay traumatization of early childhood that is perceived by the child as the abandonment of parental love, and for a child this is a fate worse than death!

Clinical Studies on Psychiatry (1956)

Harry Stack Sullivan MD

Dissociative Processes

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

remained constant 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

“making

derogatory

remarks”

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 then 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 fantasy that 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.

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.

The AP Interview: Pope says homosexuality

not a crime

By NICOLE WINFIELD

January 25, 2023

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis criticized laws that criminalize homosexuality as “unjust,” saying God loves all his children just as they are just as they are and called on Catholic bishops who support the laws to welcome LGBTQ people into the church.

“Being homosexual isn’t a crime,” Francis said during an exclusive interview Tuesday with The Associated Press.

Francis acknowledged that Catholic bishops in some parts of the world support laws that criminalize homosexuality or discriminate against LGBTQ people, and he himself referred to the issue in terms of “sin.” But he attributed such attitudes to cultural backgrounds, and said bishops in particular need to undergo a process of change to recognize the dignity of everyone.

“These bishops have to have a process of conversion,” he said, adding that they should apply “tenderness, please, as God has for each one of us.”

Francis’ comments, which were hailed by gay rights advocates as a milestone, are the first uttered by a pope about such laws. But they are also consistent with his overall approach to LGBTQ people and belief that the Catholic Church should welcome everyone and not discriminate…

Pope clarifies

homosexuality

and sin

comments in note

By NICOLE WINFIELD

January 28,2023

ROME (AP) — Pope Francis has clarified his recent comments about homosexuality and sin, saying he was merely referring to official Catholic moral teaching that teaches that any sexual act outside of marriage is a sin.

And in a note Friday, Francis recalled that even that black- and-white teaching is subject to circumstances that might eliminate the sin altogether.

Francis first made the comments in an interview Jan. 24 with The Associated Press, in which he declared that laws criminalizing homosexuality were “unjust” and that “being homosexual is not a crime.”

As he often does, Francis then imagined a conversation with someone who raised the matter of the church’s official teaching, which states that homosexual acts are sinful, or “intrinsically disordered.”

“Fine, but first let’s distinguish between a sin and a crime,” Francis said in the pretend conversation. “It’s also a sin to lack charity with one another.”

His comments calling for the decriminalization of homosexuality were hailed by LGBTQ advocates as a milestone that would help end harassment and violence against LGBTQ persons. But his reference to “sin” raised questions about whether he believed that merely being gay was itself a sin.

The Rev. James Martin, an American Jesuit who runs the U.S.-based Outreach ministry for LGBTQ Catholics, asked Francis for clarification and printed the pope’s handwritten response on the Outreach website late Friday.

In his note, Francis reaffirmed that homosexuality “is not a crime,” and said he spoke out “in order to stress that criminalization is neither good nor just.”

“When I said it is a sin, I was simply referring to Catholic moral teaching, which says that every sexual act outside of marriage is a sin,” Francis wrote in Spanish, underlining the final phrase.

But in a nod to his case-by-case approach to pastoral ministry, Francis noted that even that teaching is subject to consideration of the circumstances, “which may decrease or eliminate

fault.”

He acknowledged he could have been clearer in his comments to the AP. But he said he was using “natural and conversational language” in the interview that didn’t call for precise definitions.

“As you can see, I was repeating something in general. I should have said: ‘It is a sin, as is any sexual act outside of marriage.’ This is to speak of ‘the matter’ of sin, but we know well that Catholic morality not only takes into consideration the matter, but also evaluates freedom and

intention; and this, for every kind of sin,” he said…

Excerpt - from the 2017 letter found below:

…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?

automatically and

continuously

throughout life as part of the autonomic nervous system - like the heart beating and breathing [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…]. 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 wrongly mistaken 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 [Caritas in veritate], 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.

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…

Structural

Violence

Introduction

by Deborah Du Nann Winter and Dana C. Leighton

…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 oftenas 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…

Excerpts:

…ROBERT MICKENS, Vatican Correspondent, The Tablet: I came here when I was a seminarian in 1986. And I remember I had this very wide-eyed idea of the Vatican, of these holy cardinals and holy men. And I was shocked within a matter of weeks, months, at the careerism, at the sexual innuendo, the— just the whole kind of non-holy life I hadn't expected.

VATICAN GUIDE: [through interpreter] A large part of the hierarchy is homosexual. Certainly, at the top levels of the church, in the Curia, and many important people, such as bishops and archbishops, are gay.

NARRATOR: He's a Vatican guide who says he's had relationships with several priests.

VATICAN GUIDE: [through interpreter] Here in Rome, it's very easy to meet a gay priest, on a bus, in a church, and important churches like St. Peter's. It's even easier when you go to gay clubs and gay bars. You see them in the bars, and then at the altar the following Sunday…

OBSERVING

CURIA’S RIGID

CLOSETED

CARDINALS & BISHOPS

“50 shades of gay”

The Corruption of the Vatican’s Gay Elite Has Been Exposed

By Andrew Sullivan

FEB. 22, 2019

I spent much of this week reading and trying to absorb the new and devastating book by one Frédéric Martel on the gayness of the hierarchy at the top of the Catholic Church, In the Closet of the Vatican: Power, Homosexuality, Hypocrisy. It’s a bewildering and vast piece of reporting — Martel interviewed no fewer than “41 cardinals, 52 bishops and monsignori, 45 apostolic nuncios, secretaries of nunciatures or foreign ambassadors, 11 Swiss Guards and over 200 Catholic priests and seminarians.” He conducted more than 1,500 interviews over four years, is quite clear about his sources, and helps the reader weigh their credibility. He keeps the identity of many of the most egregiously hypocritical cardinals confidential, but is unsparing about the dead.

The picture Martel draws is jaw-dropping. Many of the Vatican gays — especially the most homophobic — treat their vows of celibacy with an insouciant contempt. Martel argues that many of these cardinals and officials have lively sex lives, operate within a “don’t ask, don’t tell” culture, constantly hit on young men, hire prostitutes, throw chem-sex parties, and even pay for sex with church money. How do we know this? Because, astonishingly, they tell us.

So much of the information in the book comes from sources deep within the Holy See. Named and unnamed, they expose their fellow cardinals and bishops and nuncios as hypocrites, without perhaps realizing that their very targets are doing the same to them. Martel didn’t expect this remarkable candor, or, clearly, what he was about to see: “Whether they are ‘practising’, ‘homophile’, ‘initiates’, ‘unstraights’, ‘wordly’, ‘versatile’, ‘questioning’, or simply ‘in the closet’, the world I am discovering, with its 50 shades of gay, is beyond comprehension.”...

“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?

How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

ADDRESS OF HIS HOLINESS

POPE FRANCIS

Monday, 22 December 2014

1. The disease of thinking we are “immortal”, “immune” or downright “indispensable”, neglecting the need for regular check-ups. A Curia which is not self-critical, which does not keep up with things, which does not seek to be more fit, is a sick body…

2. Another disease is the “Martha complex”, excessive busy-ness. It is found in those who immerse themselves in work and inevitably neglect “the better part”: sitting at the feet of Jesus (cf. Lk 10:38-42)…

3. Then too there is the disease of mental and spiritual “petrification”. It is found in those who have a heart of stone, the “stiff-necked” (Acts 7:51-60), in those who in the course of time lose their interior serenity, alertness and daring, and hide under a pile of papers, turning into paper pushers and not men of God (cf. Heb 3:12). It is dangerous to lose the human sensitivity that enables us to weep with those who weep and to rejoice with those who rejoice!…

4. The disease of excessive planning and of functionalism. When the apostle plans everything down to the last detail and believes that with perfect planning things will fall into place, he becomes an accountant or an office manager. Things need to be prepared well, but without ever falling into the temptation of trying to contain and direct the freedom of the Holy Spirit, which is always greater and more flexible than any human planning (cf. Jn 3:8)…

5. The disease of poor coordination. Once its members lose communion among themselves, the body loses its harmonious functioning and its

equilibrium; it then becomes an orchestra which produces noise: its members do not work together and lose the spirit of fellowship and teamwork…

6. There is also a “spiritual Alzheimer’s disease”…It involves a progressive decline in the spiritual faculties which in the long or short run greatly handicaps a person by making him incapable of doing anything on his own, living in a state of absolute dependence on his often imaginary perceptions…

7. The disease of rivalry and vainglory.[11] When appearances, the colour of our clothes and our titles of honour become the primary object in life, we forget the words of Saint Paul: “Do nothing from selfishness or conceit but in humility count others better than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others” (Phil 2:3-4)…

8. The disease of existential schizophrenia. This is the disease of those who live a double life, the fruit of that hypocrisy typical of the mediocre and of a progressive spiritual emptiness which no doctorates or academic titles can fill. It is a disease which often strikes those who abandon pastoral service and restrict themselves to bureaucratic matters, thus losing contact with reality, with concrete people…

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…

10. The disease of idolizing superiors. This is the disease of those who court their superiors in the hope of gaining their favour. They are victims of careerism and opportunism; they honour persons and not God (cf. Mt 23:8- 12). They serve thinking only of what they can get and not of what they should give. Small-minded persons, unhappy and inspired only by their own lethal selfishness (cf. Gal 5:16-25). Superiors themselves could be affected by this disease, when they court their collaborators in order to obtain their submission, loyalty and psychological dependency, but the end result is a real complicity…

11. The disease of indifference to others. This is where each individual thinks only of himself and loses sincerity and warmth of human relationships. When the most knowledgeable person does not put that knowledge at the service of his less knowledgeable colleagues. When we learn something and then keep it to ourselves rather than sharing it in a helpful way with others. When out of jealousy or deceit we take joy in seeing others fall instead of helping them up and encouraging them…

12. The disease of a lugubrious face. Those glum and dour persons who think that to be serious we have to put on a face of melancholy and severity, and treat others – especially those we consider our inferiors – with rigour, brusqueness and arrogance (having or revealing an exaggerated sense of one's own importance or abilities)…

13. The disease of hoarding. When an apostle tries to fill an existential void in his heart by accumulating material goods, not out of need but only in order to feel secure…

14. The disease of closed circles, where belonging to a clique becomes more powerful than belonging to the Body and, in some circumstances, to Christ himself…

15. Lastly: the disease of worldly profit, of forms of self-exhibition. When an apostle turns his service into power, and his power into a commodity in order to gain worldly profit or even greater power. This is the disease of persons who insatiably try to accumulate power and to this end are ready to slander, defame and discredit others, even in newspapers and magazines…

You haven't learn by now that repressed dissociated homosexual members of the curia and the hierarchy cannot be trusted on any gay adult sexual information. It will always be biased, a defensive projection (attributing one’s own unacceptable urges to another) and out dated - not to mention silly and stupid and infantile!!! Pick on priests and nuns and ignore the overwhelming gay sexual behavior of the curia's cardinals and bishops (the gayness of the hierarchy at the top of the Catholic Church, In the Closet of the Vatican: Power, Homosexuality, Hypocrisy)!!! How ridiculous in this day and age!!!!! What about cardinals and bishops viewing gay adult pornagraphy???? You owe priests and nuns a big public apology!!!!

This is a clear case of Structural Violence - on the part of the Chilean bishops and the Vatican's curia - both felt

self-righteous in condemning Cruz because he was gay. Therefore, Cruz was deserving of their cruelest mistreatment, not deserving of plain human respect!!! They felt justified of treating Cruz as being less than human!!!

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.

…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.”

…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.”

Peace, conflict, and violence: Peace psychology in the 21st century

The curia and the hierarchy their willful absence of science on homosexual sexual orientation is the breach that - leads to their arbitrarily attacking a symptom (viewing

gay adult pornagraphy) and not the cause (Vatican’s

unsubstantiated

antigay teaching about homosexuality sexual orientation) is deadly violent

foolishness!!!!! They have demonized the human need to love and to be loved!!!!!! They labeled falling in love with another as being "intrinsically

disordered.” Human beings cannot live without love!!! "...the word “love” is abused and distorted, to the point where it comes to mean the opposite (Caritas in veritate

Pope Benedict XVI)."

Their unsubstantiated

antigay teaching is far far worst than foot binding, it inhumanely deforms a child's personality!!!!!!!! They have driven people towards gay adult pornagraphy!!!!

Pope Francis has described what this deforming looks like in adulthood in his Christmas address to Roman Curia December 22, 2014

The willful absence of science - is the breach that Pope Benedict XVI sternly warns us against making - that would caused "an enormous price to human development…(Benedict XVI Caritas in veritate)." It solves nothing and only adds to the confusion and violence - of the dissociation of the closeted curia homosexuals!!!

To untwist this confusion of this breach, and of the dissociation of the closeted curia homosexuals thus ending their violence - begins with adding in science.

Research has shown that gay adult pornagraphy is harmless!!!!! It is from the absence of science of the Vatican’s unsubstantiated

antigay teaching about homosexuality sexual orientation that 'the

devil enters from there’!!!!!

If you are not building on the solid rock of truth that comes from the ongoing dialogue between science and religion - you are building a house of cards that will fall!!!!!! However, not before causing "an enormous price to human development…(Benedict XVI Caritas in veritate)."

And, as in the 2018 Juan Cruz/Chile affair causing

unconscionable -

cruelty - additional excruciating harm and pain to the individuals involved!!!!!!!! There is no justice for some people who implicitly have been considered, by those in power, to be less than human, not deserving of justice that is shared by others!!! Therefore, it is permissible for those in authority to make such erroneous public pronouncements about adult pornagraphy - a situation that they deny responsible for causing and then shifting the blame by unjustly condemning innocent people, who have no recourse to defend themselves!!! Again, this is a clear case of Structural Violence!!!!!!!!

Jesus

Cleansing the

Temple

Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’”

Matthew 21:12-13

Jesus

Clears the Temple Courts

When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!” His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for your house will consume me.”

John 2:13-17

https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/why-footbinding-persisted-china-millennium-180953971/

Have you religiously and thoroughly checked that fact out about adult pornagraphy!!!!! If you did - you would have learned that it is a direct product stemming from the Vatican’s

unsubstantiated

antigay teaching about homosexuality sexual orientation!!!!!! It is the product of the lifelong harmful effectscaused during early childhood years of being subjected to the Vatican’s unsubstantiated antigay teaching about homosexuality sexual orientation. A time when they were forced to believe that they are never to fall in love with anyone!!!! They are never to feel one with another!!! I assure you that adult pornagraphy is no replacement for being in love with another human being!!!!! But viewing gay adult pornagraphy is a product of that Vatican's early childhood abuse and would not otherwise exist or be a problem in their adulthood years!!!!!!! It is like the practice of foot binding very young children and then blaming, condemning

them for having deformed feet as adults!!!!!!!!

It is one thing to grow up knowing you have the freedom to fall in love with anyone - even someone of the same gender and then later in life decide to take the religious vow of celibacy.

It is completely, another situation, to be raised in early childhood in an antigay social and religious environments made to believe that it is evil to fall in love with anyone and forced into leading a celibate life. Forced as a child into denying the most basic human need to love and to be loved and then taking the vow of celibacy. Celibacy is not freely chosen!!!! It is most inhumane!!!!

This false condemnation of adult pornagraphy will not alleviate one bit of your personal guilt for turning your back on someone in need (the ones who are considered much much much lower than the least in the world)!!! Making this false condemnation of adult pornagraphy is like pouring salt into an open wound stemming as far back from early childhood!!!!! It is abusing adult childhood victims of the early childhood abuse by the Vatican’s unsubstantiated antigay teaching about homosexuality sexual orientation.

Study the science of adult pornagraphy the psychology!!!

Viewing adult pornagraphy is harmless. It acts like the Ink Blot test also known as the Rorschach test, a projective test and people’s reactions to adult pornagraphy is most revealing of one’s personal sexual life more than they are aware of - exposing their most secret sexual desires and problems. A self-righteous attitude towards to pornagraphy is a blatant cover-up, a red flag!!! Just listen to the extreme emotional outbursts of the majority of the members of the hierarchy, especially to gay adult pornagraphy, what are they covering up???

I have used gay adult pornagraphy as a means to “out” the homosexual members of the hierarchy and it has been and continues to be most

lightning effective!!!!

Bishop Walter Hurley could not find a reason to remove me from the priesthood. Hurley told me in private that my case would just be forgotten in the curia! My reason for “coming out” (the lives and future lives of millions of children, globally) was too important to let my case die in the Vatican's curia! I knew the one thing that would get the immediate attention of the curia would be gay adult pornagraphy and while at the same time “outing” the majority of the members hierarchy as closetedhomosexuals. And it worked and is still working!!!

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…

The hierarchy's

instant emotional sexual hysteria to gay adult pornagraphy - traveled faster than the speed of light from the USA to the Vatican and still has flashes of light that brightens the hallways in the Vatican like lightning!!!

What does that tell you about the hierarchy, their type sexual orientation, and what is foremost in their minds??? They are

closeted

homosexuals!!!!!

Homelessness, poverty, human suffering, etc. barely moves the hearts of the hierarchy??? It mirrors the heighten hierarchy's emotional gay overtones of the 2018 Juan Cruz/Chile affair - both among bishops of Chile and the curia members of the Vatican!!!

First, renounced the Vatican’s

unsubstantiated

antigay teaching about homosexuality sexual orientation and then we can talk about gay adult pornagraphy!!!!!! It more than likely would cease to be problem!!!!

…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.

Homophobes Might Be

Homosexuals

April 12, 2012

Homophobes should consider a little self-reflection, suggests a new study finding those individuals who are most hostile toward gays and hold strong anti-gay views may themselves have same-sex desires, albeit undercover ones.

The prejudice of homophobia may also stem from authoritarian parents, particularly those with homophobic views as well, the researchers added.

"This study shows that if you are feeling that kind of visceral reaction to an out-group, ask yourself, 'Why?'" co-author Richard Ryan, a professor of psychology at the University of Rochester, said in a statement. "Those intense emotions should serve as a call to self-reflection.”

The research, published in the April 2012 issue of the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, reveals the nuances of prejudices like homophobia, which can ultimately have dire consequences. [The 10 Most Destructive Human Behaviors]

"Sometimes people are threatened by gays and lesbians because they are fearing their own impulses, in a sense they 'doth protest too much,'" Ryan told LiveScience. "In addition, it appears that sometimes those who would oppress others have been oppressed themselves, and we can have some compassion for them too, they may be unaccepting of others because they cannot be accepting of themselves.”…

Hidden homosexuality

…The research may help to explain the underpinnings of anti-gay bullying and hate crimes, the researchers note. People in denial about their own sexual orientation, perhaps a denial fostered by authoritarian and homophobic parents, may feel a threat from other gay and lesbian individuals. Lashing out may ultimately be an indicator of the person's own internal conflict with sexual orientation.

This inner conflict can be seen in some high-profile cases in which anti-gay public figures are caught engaging in same-sex acts, the researchers say. For instance, evangelical preacher and anti-gay-marriage advocate Ted Haggard was caught in a gay sex scandal in 2006. And in 2010, prominent anti-gay activist and co-founder of conservative Family Research Council George Rekers was reportedly spotted in 2010 with a male escort rented from Rentboy com. According to news reports, the escort confirmed Rekers is gay.

"We laugh at or make fun of such blatant hypocrisy, but in a real way, these people may often themselves be victims of repression and experience exaggerated feelings of threat," Ryan said. "Homophobia is not a laughing matter. It can sometimes have tragicconsequences," as was the case in the 1998 murder of Matthew Shepard, a gay man.

A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.

John 13:34-35

Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

Dear Pope Francis,

I need your immediate help. I have been abandoned in my forced retirement and significant declining health years of safe housing and care.

My name is Fr. Martin (Marty) Kurylowicz, from Grand Rapids, Michigan USA.

In March 1997, based on extensive and exhaustive scientific and biblical evidence, I came out as a gay Catholic priest, for the protection of very young children globally who grow up to be gay, from social environments infected with extreme antigay social and religious norms not based on science or an unbiased interpretation of the bible that causes them lifelong lasting psychological harmful effects, i.e. to become dissociated from their gay sexual orientation, destroying their ability to form lifelong life-giving relationships and entrapping them in any number of non-criminal gay adult sexual addictions, further deforming their personalities (cf. foot binding).

This Roman Catholic hierarchy’s obsessive antigay dissociated rhetoric and behavior has become their dominating organizational culture, identifiable by the complete absence of science on homosexuality sexual orientation. For example: after my coming out March 1997, I was ordered by the Vatican to be sent away to be re-educated on the subject of homosexuality sexual orientation though void of the science. This directive from the Vatican mirrored exactly the same directive employed by the Nazis1937 to silence the out-spoken anti-nazi Catholic priests, who were arrested and sent away to re-education camps - later called the concentration camps. Pope Benedict XVI was a 10 years old child growing up in this extreme antigay Nazi social environment. Further demonstrating the extent of the lifelong lasting psychological harmful effects of have been raised in antigay social and religious environments.

My immediate need having been abandoned in my forced retirement and significant declining health years is for safe housing and care.

Sincerely yours in Christ,

Fr. Marty Kurylowicz

CURIA’S RIGID

CARDINALS & BISHOPS

“50 shades of gay”

The Corruption of the Vatican’s Gay Elite Has Been Exposed

By Andrew Sullivan

FEB. 22, 2019

Among the named sources: Francesco Lepore, a brilliant young gay Latin translator and priest. He soared through the ranks, directly serving Popes Benedict XVI and Francis, until, as a gay man, he found a way to quit his post because he couldn’t abide the double life he was forced to lead, or the rancid hypocrisy of the whole system. He says he saw everything from the inside: “He has had several lovers among archbishops and prelates; he has been propositioned by a number of cardinals, whom we discuss: an endless list. I have scrupulously checked all of those stories, making contact myself with those cardinals, archbishops, monsignori, nuncios, assistants, ordinary priests or confessors at St Peter’s, all basically homosexual.” This is not the peddling of innuendo, or salacious gossip. It’s reporting…

…Martel is taken aback by the way in which many of his interviewees openly hit on him and, especially, his young assistant. Being gay, he notices things a straight reporter might not. His ears prick up when Cardinal Burke’s assistant casually informs him of the archenemy of Francis: “She works from home.” He sees the cruising all around him. He notices simple things that some might call innuendo, but any gay man will instantly recognize, like the fabulous interiors of the gay cardinals’ palaces, always with their “assistants” or young “relative” on hand. Or he simply describes Burke’s appearance: “The 70-year-old cardinal [is] sitting on an asparagus-green throne twice as large as he is, surrounded by silvery drapery. He wears a fluorescent yellow mitre in the shape of a tall Tower of Pisa, and long turquoise gloves that look like iron hands; his mozzetta is cabbage-green, embroidered with yellow, lined with a leek-green hood revealing a bow of crimson and pomegranate lace.”

Then there’s simply the reporting. Some of the most conservative clerics concede the truth of the book on the record. Or take Martel’s interaction with the Swiss Guards, one of whom vents: “The harassment is so insistent that I said to myself that I was going straight home. Many of us are exasperated by the usually rather indiscreet advances of the cardinals and bishops.” Or the prostitutes who keep elaborate records of their clients, and have already caused huge scandals in Italy. Or a confessor-priest in Saint Peter’s who guides Martel into the Vatican with the words: “Welcome to Sodoma.” Martel double-checks rumors until he can confirm them. Of course, many of these sources remain unnamed. The very subject matter makes that unavoidable. But critics of the book — and the defensive dismissals of it as mere salacious gossip are already out there — have to argue that Martel is a liar, a fabulist, a con artist, who faked these remarkable interviews. I don’t buy it…

A New Balance

The Pope Francis Interview: “A New Balance” for the Church

September 19, 2013

“In Buenos Aires I used to receive letters from homosexual persons who are ‘socially wounded’ because they tell me that they feel like the church has always condemned them,” Pope Francis said in a long, occasionally mesmerizing interview with Father Antonio Spadaro that was published Thursday by sixteen Jesuit journals, in a range of languages. (The English version is in America.) “But the church does not want to do this.” He had just told Spadaro that wounds were what the Church was meant to heal: “I see the church as a field hospital after battle. It is useless to ask a seriously injured person if he has high cholesterol and about the level of his blood sugars! You have to heal his wounds. Then we can talk about everything else. Heal the wounds, heal the wounds.”

And yet the Church “sometimes has locked itself up in small things, in small-minded rules.” And then, in a passage that will probably always be associated with his papacy, he went on to make clear what he considered small, or smaller-minded:…

We have to find a new balance; otherwise even the moral edifice of the church is likely to fall like a house of cards, losing the freshness and fragrance of the Gospel. … The proclamation of the saving love of God comes before moral and religious imperatives. Today sometimes it seems that the opposite order is prevailing...

Galileo’s Trial

Oct. 31, 1992

More than 350 years after the Roman Catholic Church condemned Galileo, Pope John Paul II is poised to rectify one of the Church's most infamous wrongs -- the persecution of the Italian astronomer and physicist for proving the Earth moves around the Sun.

With a formal statement at the Pontifical Academy of Sciences on Saturday, Vatican officials said the Pope will formally close a 13-year investigation into the Church's condemnation of Galileo in 1633. The condemnation, which forced the astronomer and physicist to recant his discoveries, led to Galileo's house arrest for eight years before his death in 1642 at the age of 77.

The dispute between the Church and Galileo has long stood as one of history's great emblems of conflict between reason and dogma, science and faith. The Vatican's formal acknowledgement of an error, moreover, is a rarity in an institution built over centuries on the belief that the Church is the final arbiter in matters of faith.

At the time of his condemnation, Galileo had won fame and the patronage of leading Italian powers like the Medicis and Barberinis for discoveries he had made with the astronomical telescope he had built. But when his observations led him to proof of the Copernican theory of the solar system, in which the sun and not the earth is the center, and which the Church regarded as heresy, Galileo was summoned to Rome by the Inquisition.

Forced to Recant

By the end of his trial, Galileo was forced to recant his own scientific findings as "abjured, cursed and detested," a renunciation that caused him great personal anguish but which saved him from being burned at the stake…

Know the TRUTH and the TRUTH will set you FREE

Caritas in veritate

...Without truth, charity degenerates into sentimentality. Love becomes an empty shell, to be filled in an arbitrary way. In a culture without truth, this is the fatal risk facing love. It falls prey to contingent subjective emotions and opinions, the word “love” is abused and distorted, to the point where it comes to mean the opposite. Truthfrees charity from the constraints of an emotionalism that deprives it of relational and social content, and of a fideism that deprives it of human and universal breathing-space…

…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, RELIGIONalways needs to be purified by reason in order to show its authentically human face. Anybreach in this dialogue comes only at an enormous price to human development…

A brief Tango History

by Murray Pfeffer

The Tango, often called 'The Argentine Tango', is Argentina's contribution to the world of dance. The Tango came from the brothels and low cafes of Buenos Aires at the turn of the century. However, at it's very beginning, it was a ballet-like dance between two men, which, just a little later, became the obscene dance of the brothels where both men and women had the opportunity to rub their bodies together. Over the years, the Tango has changed becoming an elegant and stylish dance evoking a picture of high society, with women in sleek glittering evening gowns and men in tuxedos and tails…

Pope Francis meets transgender

guests of Rome church

By NICOLE WINFIELD

August 11, 2022

ROME (AP) — Pope Francis has met with a fourth group of transgender people who found shelter at a Rome church, the Vatican newspaper reported Thursday.

L’Osservatore Romano said the encounter took place Wednesday on the sidelines of Francis’ weekly general audience. The newspaper quoted Sister Genevieve Jeanningros and the Rev. Andrea Conocchia as saying the pope’s welcome brought their guests hope.

The Blessed Immaculate Virgin community in the Torvaianica neighborhood on Rome’s outskirts opened its doors to transgender people during the coronavirus pandemic.

Francis previously met with some of them on April 27, June 22 and Aug. 3, the newspaper said.

“No one should encounter injustice or be thrown away, everyone has dignity of being a child of God,” the paper quoted Sister Jeanningros as saying.

Francis has earned praise from some members of the LBGTQ community for his outreach. When asked in 2013 about a purportedly gay priest, he replied, “Who am I to judge?” He has met individually and in groups with transgender people over the course of his pontificate…

San Diego Bishop

McElroy named by Pope Francis as a cardinal

May 30, 2022

(AP) — Bishop Robert McElroy of San Diego, one of Pope Francis’ ideological allies who has often sparred with more conservative U.S. bishops, was named by the pope on Sunday as one of 21 new cardinals.

The San Diego diocese said McElroy will be installed by Pope Francis on August 27 at St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome…

…In selecting McElroy, Francis passed over the higher-ranking archbishop of San Francisco, Salvatore Cordileone. Earlier this month, Cordileone said he will no longer allow U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to receive Communion because of her support for abortion rights…

…Los Angeles Archbishop José Gomez, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops who has worked with McElroy for many years…

“By naming Bishop Robert McElroy as a cardinal, Pope Francis has shown his pastoral care for the Church in the United States,” Gomez said in a written statement…

..Over recent years, McElroy has been among the relatively few U.S. bishops who questioned why the bishops’ conference insisted on identifying abortion as its “preeminent” priority. He has questioned why greater prominence was not given to issues such as racism, poverty, immigration and climate change.

“The death toll from abortion is more immediate, but the long-term death toll from unchecked climate change is larger and threatens the very future of humanity,” he said in a speech in 2020.

Last year, he was among a small group of bishops signing a statement expressing support for LGBT youth and denouncing the bullying often directed at them.

The bishops’ statement said LGBT youth attempt suicide at much higher rates, are often homeless because of families who reject them and “are the target of violent acts at alarming rates.”

“We take this opportunity to say to our LGBT friends, especially young people, that we stand with you and oppose any form of violence, bullying or harassment directed at you,” it read. “Most of all, know that God created you, God loves you and God is on your side.”

Francis DeBernardo, executive director of New Ways Ministry, which advocates for greater LGBTQacceptance in the Catholic church, hailed McElroy’s appointment.

“He represents the kind of prelate our church needs, one who will stretch out a hand, not a fist, to the LGBTQ community,” DeBernardo said. “As an elector of future popes, McElroy can play a role in making sure that the next papacy will continue in the welcoming spirit of Pope Francis.”…

FAITH LEADERS RESPOND TO POPE FRANCIS COMMENTS ON LGBT PEOPLE

August 2022

…

Marianne Duddy-Burke, Executive Director, DignityUSA:

“We find much to be hopeful about, particularly in the Pope’s firm desire that the Church be a ’home for all people,’ and his belief that God looks on lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people with love rather than condemnation.

“LGBT Catholics and allies will rejoice in the Pope’s call for Church leaders to focus on being pastors rather than rule enforcers. We hope that the bishops will heed this call and immediately end their anti-LGBT campaigns, the firings of church workers for who they are, the attacks on people who challenge or question official teachings, and the exclusive and judgmental rhetoric that comes too often from our pulpits.

“The Pope is unambiguous. Leave the bully pulpit, and accompany your people. We appreciate the Pope’s commitment to consultation, and his clear statement that the Church is all the people of God. We look forward to engaging members and leaders of the Church at all levels in ongoing dialogue about the issues of concern to LGBT Catholics and our families.

“This could be a moment of deep renewal for our Church, and for its LGBT members. We hope, pray, and work to ensure this is so.”…

The withdraw of parental love from a child

A continuous

lifetime form of

child abuse

In a brief generalization, a child not being loved by parents for being gay - IS NOT A ONE TIME TRAUMATIC EVENT!

POPE BENEDICT XVI is a perfect example of what it means - not being a one time TRAUMATIC EVENT - means is that every day as the gay child matures on through old age - will be tortured 24/7 by every normal and natural

impulse of the functioning of his gay sexual orientation with nearly every attractive male that comes into his sight.

Brokeback Mountain

by Roger Ebert

December 15, 2005

Ennis tells Jack about something he saw as a boy. "There were two old guys shacked up together. They were the joke of the town, even though they were pretty tough old birds." One day they were found beaten to death. Ennis says: "My dad, he made sure me and my brother saw it. For all I know, he did it."

This childhood memory is always there, the ghost in the room, in Ang Lee's "Brokeback Mountain." When he was taught by his father to hate homosexuals, Ennis was taught to hate his own feelings. Years after he first makes love with Jack on a Wyoming mountainside, after his marriage has failed, after his world has compressed to a mobile home, the laundromat, the TV, he still feels the same pain: "Why don't you let me be? It's because of you, Jack, that I'm like this -- nothing, and nobody.”… Read more:

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.

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
