Jesus Was a Homosexual
According to a new interview of Elton John in Parade, the carpenter from Nazareth was a super intelligent gay man. There have been suggestions that Jesus and Mary Magdalene were a couple, and might have even had a baby together, but the evidence is slim.
Two thousand years ago a carpenter did hard physical work. If Jesus was actually a real historical person (which is certainly open to question), he was not some skinny little wimp who got sand kicked in his face. No doubt he was in excellent physical condition, maybe even what one might call “buff.” He might have looked sort of like the oiled up, muscled gay men that one sometimes sees at the gym.
The Christian religion has some very perverse and unhealthy ideas about sex. Just ask almost any modern teenage Baptist girl with raging hormones who is racked by guilt. Or look at the tragic cases of so many Catholic Priests engaging in anal intercourse with young boys from their congregation. These priests should have their balls chopped off, and a scarlet brand burned into their faces so that all the world will know they are child abusers.
Guilt about sex starts from the beginning of the book when the naked and very sexy Eve tempts Adam in the Garden of Eden. Vigin birth is described in order to avoid doing the disgusting sex act. The stage is set, making sex appear horribly nasty, wicked, and evil. Christian masturbation is appalling, and to this day there are right wing fanatics and fundamentalists who quote bible passages to justify their verbal and physical abuse, even murder, of gays.
Elton John’s observation is astute. He is OK, and Stephen Fry is nothing short of wonderful. Ellen DeGeneres and Wanda Sykes are nice too.
But I am not gay; I don’t have any tendencies in that direction. I maybe do get a little bit turned on by girl-on-girl porn, but I sure don’t have any fantasy about being together sexually with another man. I find the idea of male-male sex a bit disgusting.
I do not accept the argument that childrearing by two loving, devoted parents of the same gender is as good for the child as when the parents are loving, devoted, and male/female. I don’t want the sex police breaking down bedroom doors in the middle of the night to catch two consenting adults performing their favorite sexual perversion. I support the right of gays to be together out of the closet.
This doesn’t in any way mean that I consider same-sex marriage as healthy for society as male/female marriage. They are not equal. Not even close. Marriage is an institution designed to encourage a man and a woman to remain together as a couple during the long child rearing process that human kids undergo. And a healthy, loving male/female marriage is far better for the kid than a healthy, loving gay marriage. That is my assessment.
