Boy, religious people sure do HATE SEX, don't they?
Oh I know, if you asked any of the Save Our Children From Leering
Depravity members who took part in the threatened boycott, they would
undoubtedly tell you that they are only worried about homosexuality,
because religious people are lying shitsacks. It's inherent in the
proposition of being religious. First you have to believe something
that only a dumbass would believe. Being a dumbass helps, but it
requires something beyond that, PULLING THE WOOL OVER YOUR OWN EYES.
(I mean let's face it, some of what -we- have we got from -them-,
sometimes it's a little hard to keep track of what subgeniuses
actually mean and what's ... eh ... let's say 'more true than true'.)
It requires the ability to believe something you intellectually know
isn't true because you want emotionally to believe it so bad, and it
isn't far at all from there to just simply being a lying shitsack, and
to my experience most religious people (well, Christians mostly) have
made that leap with a running start.
Just for example, you see Christians wandering around trying to
evangelize people and telling them "all you have to do is ACCEPT
JESUS! THAT'S IT! THERE'S NOTHING MORE TO IT!" I mean used car
salesmen and politicians don't even lie that baldly. They KNOW that
being what they consider a Christian entails a lot more than that.
Totally outside of how I feel about the belief system or accepting a
dead middle eastern schizo as my King, it's such a BALDASSED lie.
It's not even a -good- lie, a subtle lie or a lie which has some kind
of strategy behind it. It's a
flatout-completely-not-true-but-they-say-it-anyway lie.
And then they blink.
I guess it's how dumbasses find each other, like a mating call.
I've totally lost track of what I was talking about.
Oh they'll tell you with a straight face that they are only objecting
to the Homosexual Agenda or protecting their children from Godless
Humanism or something, something that at least sounds relatively
rational and as if they are just purely trying to defend themselves
.... but it's another blinking lie. The Rabbis are running around
trying to ban the Internet because people might see SEX on it, the
'Conservatives' are trying to take down every sex page on the Internet
and the new Attorney General has actually had a whack at it, Bush
tries to take morning after pills off the market because they
"encourage promiscuity" (which basically means SEX). Religious people
just HATE SEX. They won't admit it, but when it is the absolutely
unvarying common factor in so much of what they do, it shouldn't take
Sigmund Freud to figure it out.
And how can you HATE SEX? It's like hating pizza or warm showers.
But they don't really hate sex, that isn't the heart of it. They hate
OTHER PEOPLE having sex. Quite a few religious people seem to hate
sex in general but some of them kind of grudgingly approve of sex AS
LONG AS YOU'RE MARRIED TO A TIGHTASS *****. I don't completely get
the pattern.
But they definitely, unquestionably hate sex which is had by other
people, and especially people who have kinds of sex which they don't.
They go apoplectic expressing their revulsion at it. Jack Chick
comics are great for this but any time you see religi-O's going off
about sex it seems to me clear that they have vivid mental images of
the offending sex act.
That to me kind of hits at the heart of it. Logically, I really don't
grasp, not why people are bothered by sex, but why they give a damn
one way or another. How can you be bothered by something you don't
even know people are doing? I swear, straight conservative guys, even
if gay marriage -is- legalized, you won't have hordes of gay men
knocking down your front door and forcing you to have gay sex at
gunpoint and like it. You'd be amazed how rare that kind of thing is.
There are not thousands of gay men having torrid sexual fantasies
about ***** Cheney.
It seems to be implicit in anti-sex politics that you are somehow
forced to think about other people's sex lives.
Now to be honest, on that point I could agree with them. I really do
find the idea of men having sex a little revolting. It's true. It's
not something I really spend more time on than I really have to.
BUT THERE'S THE THING. I DON'T have to. In fact there are quite a
lot of things I find disgusting to think about, SO I DON'T.
Just the thought of the sex act which must logically have been
necessaryto bring our current president into the world makes me really
ill. I don't want to think about it.
SO I DON'T.
So is that what the religious right-wing is really all about? Is it
that they are, by nature, the kind of people who -can't- not think
about things? They only way they can stop thinking about
homosexuality or S&M or any kind of sex other than straight
missionary-position baby-making is to make them illegal (well which,
actually, of course, won't really work ... look at them making
witchcraft illegal in the middle ages ... just because something isn't
there, doesn't mean you can't fantasize that it is ...)
To some extent, I guess, I can relate. I have clicked on links on the
Internet which I have really regretted clicking and not been able to
get out of my head for a day or two. Rotten.com and ogrish.com and
things like that. But it really doesn't take long to get over it.
It actually explains a lot, IMO. Maybe that's what a religious person
-is-, somebody with less control over what they do, and unable to
control what they -think-.
Really, you look at the vast degree to which both right-wing politics
and the religious right-wing have been thick with homosexual scandals
and other transgressive-sex scandals ... in which the sex act involved
is exactly one of the sex acts that right-wing religious people are
all the time speaking out against.
Damn. This is starting to make a LOT of sense.
So because they really AREN'T capable of controlling themselves,
because they are really sincerely not capable of stopping thinking
about something once it is stuck in their head, they want to make it
illegal for THE WHOLE WORLD because that's the only way they can think
of to prevent themselves transgressing their self-imposed rules.
If which was the case... it not only explains religious politics, it
explains religion in general What is more perfect for somebody who
is incapable of controlling their actions than an imaginary authority
figure to tell them "NO! NO!" Maybe that's what a religious person
-is-, is somebody who just can't NOT do or think about something
unless they have the imaginary creator of the universe there as an
authority figure telling them not to.
Hoo hah. I really am totally on to something here. I am going to
spam this to a few religi-O newsgroups.
