"[Gay Marriage] is an attack against the survival of the human species."

Bishop Juan Carlos, Rio Gallegos, Argentina, quoted in Yahoo News, 29 December 2009 "Gay Marriage in Argentina is 1st in Latin America"

Is that so bad? Hmmm...after all, priests and politicians created bastard children, orphanages, foster care, convents, monasteries, physically and sexually abusive state run religious schools, censored sex education (while insisting on the unquestioned acceptance of the Virgin Birth) devised the Inquisition, legalised torture, acknowledged the existence of the Devil and witchcraft, wiped out indigenous cultures who refused to convert or comply - and then insisted on the confession of sins.

All this while claiming that the priesthood was a "higher calling" and that politics was a "noble profession". In reality what it meant was that priests and politicians were for the longest time, immune to prosecution.

Presumably it would be impolite to point out that the legacy of priests and politicians has been the creation of millions of deeply wounded human psyches, which while physically functioning are sexually confused, emotionally traumatised, spiritually brutalized and politically betrayed.

Religion and politics are numbers games where the quest for Quantity overrides the scarred legacy of Quality. As far as FuelMix is concerned, emotional cripples who are the discarded byproducts of dogma, are just as much a threat to the viability of the human species as say..... hmmm.... 2 people of the same sex intending to enter into a commitment of integrity (whether through Gay Marriage or Civil Union) that might mean something.

Yes indeed, the World Management Team's view of Threat Awareness has taken on a bizarre twist.
