In the guardian.co.uk today comes the most two sided story I ever read in my life.
American teenagers are increasingly facing prosecution as sex offenders as a result of the rapidly spreading practice of sending explicit photos of themselves by mobile phone — a trend known as “sexting”. In the latest case, three teenage girls in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, who sent nude self portraits, and the three male classmates who received the images, have all been served with child pornography charges. The girls have been charged with manufacturing and disseminating child pornography while the boys are accused of possessing it. In Rochester, New York, a boy aged 16 faces seven years in jail for circulating an image of a girlfriend to friends.
First, this sort of open and explicit sexual behavior among children never used to happen and was never a problem. Kids kept their bodies to themselves and certainly never paraded their nakedness in front of the opposite sex. So the fact that they are now, and increasingly so, speaks directly to the pressures on them to seek gratification, to assert their sexuality, to reach for independence, to emulate their Hollywood idols, to rebel against their elders… the list goes on.
When sexuality is pumped at all of us continually in our media, especially television, through blatant ads for Viagra to have sex longer and more often, ads for pills that make penises larger and make a point about how happy the users are for getting greater sexual pleasure, with Levis ads showing a young couple yanking off their clothes to have sex…
How do we then expect our kids to react? Puberty brings on a heavy hormone rush as bodies fill out and urges mount in intensity. So are we adults helping them learn to cope with this until their brains catch up with their bodies? Hell no, we’re exploiting their sexuality to sell them stuff, we’re encouraging exactly the kind of behavior, for profit, that we should be doing our best to discourage with wise counsel.
Then, secondly, after they do what we have pushed them into doing, we call them Sex Offenders and put them in prison and destroy their lives forever.
Taking away their cell phone cameras isn’t the answer but it would be a good start. They don’t need cameras in their cell phones and expecting them to always behave responsibly is silly.
However.
The burden really is on our legal system to back off and take a deep breath. We just can’t go and put kids in prisons for years for sharing nude pictures of each other and then make them register as sex offenders for the rest of their lives for showing off their private parts to each other. We have taught our children to be openly sexual, like it or not. Now we can’t stand back all self-righteous and aghast and condemn them for doing what comes naturally. Either we change our laws to reflect reality, and I mean Right Now, or we might as well just put a razor wire fence clear around the U.S. and all of us wear orange jump suits with Federal Prisoner stenciled in black on the back, because we’re all going to end up in prison anyway if we don’t get a grip on ourselves.
We shoved Sexual Freedom down our kids throats. They took it and ran with it. What else did we expect?
Now. I know how to solve this. Reverse history. The reason this was never a problem before is because there were never so many people as there are now. The more of us there are crammed together the more aberrant, hostile and anti-social we become. Back in the 60′s someone did a study on rats, allowing their population to increase unchecked, in a limited amount of living space. The more they got jammed together, the more they acted like humans. Homosexuality and violence became commonplace.
The fix for the problem is to eliminate the excess population over 35,000 in every large city in the world, and reduce the population of every average city to no more than 5000. No community allowed of over 5000 people other than cities like Los Angeles, New Delhi and so forth. This is an achievable goal, and this is why:
Once every century, at the turn of each century, stories of apocalypse and prophets of Armageddon would be all the rage, and quickly pass as the century mark passed. 1600, 1700, 1800, 1900, all had their religious nuts who would prophecy the collapse of humanity. But once the fateful date passed and nothing happened, it was forgotten for another century. Now it’s different.
Now, and since before the year 2000, the prophecies of doom, Armageddon, global disaster, have gone on and on. We see them nearly nightly on our TV, hear them on the radio, people are writing books left and right about the way they think we’re all going to die, by a comet strike, a cosmic ray or neutron pulse from a distant star, an ice age, nuclear war………
This is because we’re overpopulated and instinctually, we know that being so will doom us. Our population is growing unchecked. The planet is maxxing out on how many humans it can feed, the oceans are dying – they have been for years now, as Jacques Cousteau kept telling us back in the 1960s. If our ocean actually died, and all the organisms in it began decaying, the oxygen the process would consume would asphyxiate the planet. Everything would die. Everything. If we heat the planet up too much and melt all the ice, the actual dry land mass of the planet would be reduced by over a third, and that’s the part that most of us live on and grow our food on.
We have a death wish as a species. We know, down inside, that we can’t control our own numbers and that to live we have to die, by the billions, and pretty soon, too. The only way the human race can survive is for most of us to die. It’s also the only way for everything else on the planet to have a chance of survival, because if we don’t endure a massive extermiination of ourselves pretty soon, we’ll take the whole thing down with us.
This is why we’re going to do it. We just keep hoping an asteroid will do it for us first. We’d much rather have a big chunk of rock hit somewhere and plunge us into darkness for a year or two and kill most of us off that way, than have to do the job ourselves, which is why the asteroid doomsday scenario is so popular. We don’t want a nuclear war, we just want most of us to die, and this way we could blame it on God instead of us having to carry the shame for millennia of having poisoned the Earth with fallout. But nuke we will, when our population reaches critical mass, and it soon will.
The hottest prediction going is for Nov. 23, 2012, you’ve probably heard all about that one, how the Aztec calendar ends on that day because the world does, and there are other corroborating prophecies from such as Nostradamus and Mother Shipman, and Bible and other prophecies. Seems like as good a date as any to me, that’s nearly 5 years away from now and really, it’s a toss-up whether we make it that long or not.
A Little Respect?
Tuesday, December 30th, 2008The homosexual crowd is still pushing as hard as ever for “equal rights”, and what they actually mean by that is equal acceptance on a social level. It’s not as if they were held down by reason of their race, something that’s common to humanity virtually everywhere.
Homosexuals have been an abused minority not because of their skin color but because of their behavior, and that’s a whole different game. It is reasonable for normal people to be repelled by aberrant behavior.
People who wear clothing unusual to the norm, or go around naked or nearly so in a well-covered society, people who babble strange things or habitually laugh at inappropriate times, and so on, are repelled by their societies for their strangeness. Humans have a need to have a comfortable norm, to establish acceptable levels of behavior simply because we need to know what to reasonably expect from the people around us, and when some of us go off on a tangent, we push them away from the majority of us.
All societies have certain sexual mores as the most basic part of their foundations, and very few societies are accepting of homosexuality unless those societies are composed primarily of homosexuals, such as the Catholic Church or the city of San Francisco.
This is reasonable human behavior. Now we have homosexuals pressing to be included within the acceptable norm of our society, which is based on monagomous heterosexual relationships, and demanding that our institution of marriage and it’s attendant rights, duties and privileges be extended to them.
Long before religions tried to dominate and enforce the legalities and rituals of marriage, long before there were religions beyond the level of witch doctors, marriages between men and women were recognized and a ritual was performed to give recognition to the bond. The purpose then was the same as now, to tell the world that these two people were now paired and their children would be raised and protected by them.
Marriage was for the recognition of new families and for the protection of children. It still is. All societies today want to know the parentage of children, who is responsible for the birthing and fathering of the children, who is responsible for the caring of the children. Marriage establishes the parentage of children. Marriage is all about knowing who a child is and the protection of that child.
Homosexuals do not have children by their uniions, so through the legality of marriage according to our democratic laws, they would have the right to adopt children, which could then be raised, and certainly would be raised, to have the same aberrant sexual views as their adoptive parents. They want to raise children totally outside of a normal environment regardless of the harm that it would bring to children, to their mental stability as well as exposure to diseases such as AIDS.
Any normal person who has ever gone to a homosexual bar has seen enough to know that homosexual behavior isn’t something they want to engage in and certainly not something they want their children engaging in. Homosexuals see things differently and think differently. They have entirely different emotional reactions than normal people which seem both inappropriate and excessive. They over-react emotionally, often deliberately so, simply to outdo their homosexual friends. To most homosexuals, emotions are far more valid than logic and common sense and they act on their emotions accordingly.
Since they’re repressed from doing this in normal society, they end up living two lives, so to speak, which is extremely stressful for them. This is why the movement to come out of the closet arose and why they form their own communities, so they can act in ways that to them are normal but that repel and disgust the rest of us.
In spite of the revulsion of society toward them, we have responded democratically by enacting laws to protect them from assault and discrimination due to their “sexual orientation”, ie, their homosexuality. They asked for and were granted mutual respect within our communities and workplaces.
But that’s not enough. In their gushing emotional insanity they think that paired emotional and sexual bonds between them should be accepted by us just the same as if it were normal couples who were getting married and having children. They want their intrusion and takeover of heterosexual society to be complete, they want to take everything from us and give us back nothing. It doesn’t matter to them at all that our religions can’t and won’t recognize marriages between two men or two women because they can’t produce offspring. It doesn’t matter to them at all that they’re trying to crush the traditions of our society into the dirt. All that matters to them is their dithering emotional excesses. Oh I must have it, oh I must, oh I must.
This is about respect and if the homosexuals don’t have the good sense God gave most of us, to respect the traditions of others and not go where we don’t belong, then we have to respect our values and traditions ourselves and say NO to these men in lipstick and leotards and women in Levi’s and steel toed boots. A line has to be drawn and not crossed over and that line is the sanctity of marriage, for the sake of our children, our religions and our society.
