Sobran on Homosexuality
July 5, 2015
Getting in touch with my feelings the
other day, I realized how I loathe homosexuals. All of them? Of course
not. Some of them are funny, kind, intelligent, and otherwise pleasant.
But homosexuals in general, yes. I can’t stand them. Especially the ones
who are organized under the rubric of gay rights.
I guess this makes me “homophobic.” So
what? Homophobia is one of those ugly cant-words — like racist and
sexist — that no self-respecting speaker of the English language would
use. (Try to imagine Abraham Lincoln calling someone “homophobic.”) It’s
a verbal badge of groupthink.
Funny how the people who style themselves
victims always want to bully everyone else.
Diversity now means
conformity. It means making sensible people afraid to contradict
nonsense so obvious as to insult their intelligence.
Normal people find homosexuality,
especially male homosexuality, repellent. We’re supposed to apologize
for that? Our slang words for the anus, and their use as insults,
express our disgust with the whole idea of anal sex. Apart from the
personal defilement it involves, it’s grossly unsanitary.
My own feelings are intensified by
personal experience. Believe me, when a child you love has been
sodomized, it takes a lot of the romance out of buggery. What was merely
disgusting becomes nauseating. You needn’t hate the perpetrator — who,
in this case as in so many others, had been sodomized as a child himself
— to feel utter revulsion at the act, and contempt for those who try to
endow it with dignity.
Will the victim now grow up to sodomize
other boys? Will he come down with AIDS? Will he, on his wedding night,
remember this first “sexual” experience?
Another instance of homosexual pedophilia
has been in the news lately — or rather, hasn’t been in the news. In
1999, two Arkansas perverts raped, tortured, and murdered a 13-year-old
boy; that crime has been almost totally ignored by the same news media
that spent a year bewailing the murder of the homosexual Matthew
Shepard. Because the boy was a victim rather than a victimizer of
homosexuals, his story might hurt The Cause. No martyr he! [cont.]
Alan: Conservatives are guided by anecdote more than reason and so Mr. Sobran must resort to 1999 for an instance of egregious homosexual violence worked upon a heterosexual.
On the flip side of this sexual coin, violence perpetrated by heterosexuals in relationship with gays and women alike is commonplace.
If joy is an unfailing sign of infusion by The Holy Spirit, The Thinking Housewife and her readers are not meeting muster.
Consistently, they come across as bitter, pissy and uncharitable.
Antonin Scalia
A dependable source of authentic cant.
