Deviancy is the new Alcoholism

A great deal of time and scientific research has gone into discovering how people become alcoholics.  Some folks may have a genetic predisposition, or maybe they grew up in a household where binge drinking was commonplace and it's how they learned to cope with life's problems.  Or maybe they just gave in to something they knew was unhealthy for them long-term in trade for a short-term joyride.

In general, the American center perceives alcoholism and a negative thing.  Governments have pushed hard on the greater vices of alcohol, tobacco and firearms.  In general we pity those who find themselves wrecked because of vices and celebrate when they overcome their dependency on alcohol.
Recovering addicts know that the first step to getting better is to recognize they have a problem..then seek help.  Support groups, medication, doctor supervision, even a chip in the pocket as a reminder to stay strong...these are methods that folks use to overcome drug and alcohol addiction.  They celebrate the hours they've stayed strong...appreciate the life they've regained.

And then there's sex.

Our liberal friends would like everyone to believe there is no such thing a deviancy.  Well, have a look around at what has worked in nature since the dawn of time...and then everything else.

America has moved into a spiritually dangerous territory.  Let me prove that by demonstrating how the paragraph on alcoholics above changes in tone when replaced by accepted, previously antisocial behavior.

A great deal of time and scientific research has gone into discovering how people become sexual deviants.  Some folks may have a genetic predisposition, or maybe they grew up in a household where unnatural behavior was commonplace and it's how they learned to cope with life's problems.  Or maybe they just gave in to something they knew was unhealthy for them long-term in trade for a short-term joyride.
In general, the American center perceives non-traditional relationships as a negative thing.  Governments have pushed hard on the greater vices of homosexuality, prostitution, nudism, animal abuse, and other rough-trade.  In general we pity those who find themselves wrecked because of vices and celebrate when they overcome their self-destructive behavior.
Recovering sex abusers & addicts know that the first step to getting better is to recognize they have a problem..then seek help.  Support groups, medication, doctor supervision, even a chip in the pocket as a reminder to stay strong...these are methods that folks use to overcome unnatural sex addiction.  They celebrate the hours they've stayed strong...appreciate the life they've regained.

How can you be gay and proud...really.  It's a sad thing.  And repeating that something is okay until you believe it...doesn't make it so.  Ask any gambler with a problem.  Need absolution and can't get it? Maybe Absolut will do (for a while.)

God put us on this earth to learn and grow and evolve.  What needs to happen is not an evolution of thinking about what's acceptable, but how we should be working hard every day to improve ourselves no matter what our mental and physical challenges are.  If gay sex behavior is your vice...then like any other vice you have to accept that it's part of your personality...whatever the reason.  But you don't have to give in to it any more than an alcoholic has to have that next shot of ripple.  BEING gay is not the problem...but why would you let someone else define you...tell you what that means...how to behave...  BEING gay does not have to be a liability or a disability.  It can be set aside as any other vice...you can find a mate and enjoy your own children, one of the greatest blessings of this life.  And maybe just maybe you will figure out that you overcame it and you are better off for it.    Or.    You can give in to your 'alcoholism' and inherit shame.

What you do behind closed doors is your business...not mine...but when you bring it out in the yard, I reserve the right to get the hose.
