Actions Have Consequences: The recent vote to oust Chick-fil-A from the Elon University campus (see Student Vote WRAL) demonstrates the total failure and breakdown of the nations system of higher education. It is clear that they possess absolutely no in-depth understanding of the nature and reality of gender -- or the higher purpose of the opposite sex relationship. Which is why they are intellectually and spiritually flat-lined -- and while they think in their own minds that they are intelligent, what they are is pseudo-intellectuals who make their own standards and rules that give them the illusion of intelligence. The fact that they lack even the minimal intellect to recognize that when they censor or promote one side of an argument, while blindly promoting its opposite -- censoring and suppressing one side of the equation, while affirming its opposite -- without understanding the consequences of the position being promoted -- in their pseudo-intellectual self-created world in which they dwell, their censorship must be seen as the absolute suspension of reason and intellect. And yet, this is exactly the case in point with respect to the Elon student bodies attempt to have Chick-fil-A removed from the university campus because the CEO affirms the position of the Biblical definition of Marriage as a Spiritual Union of Opposites. They are pseudo-intellectuals -- the Taliban of political correctness -- attempting to censor a polarity of mind and thinking that they lack the perceptive intellect to understand -- promoting an Inquisition for the purpose of suppressing all opposing positions other than their own.
Building off the article entitled The Chicken War - Gay Marriage - Choices Have Consequences!, the question that students walking the path of intellectual pursuits should be asking is: What is the consequences of one's choices? In the first place the person of intellect would want to know why the Bible rejects homosexuality? Is there an important reason? And if there is an important reason for the condemnation of homosexuality, did the biblical authors possess the means to make and in-depth explanation necessary to convey this reason? Or, because of the immaturity of the people, were they forced to create a list of do's and don't's that will sufice to get the people through the elementary stages of intellectual and spiritual immaturity.
In the same way that a parent is limited by the maturity of their child with respect to the child's ability to understand the consequences of certain actions, in many instances the parent is limited to enforcing a list of guidelines that must be followed. Often, because of the immaturity of the child, the parent is limited to telling their child: Just Say No! Not because the parent wants to dictate unreasonable positions to the child -- but rather, because the child's stage of development does not permit an in-depth explanation of realities which the child's state of immaturity does not permit them to intelligently contemplate at that age.
The question is: Why does the Bible prohibit homosexuality? The fact that there is an important reason why such a biblical prohibition exists -- and that students and critics of the Bible fail to even understand why this prohibition was made -- is in and of itself the outcome of the Church's long attempt to promote blind faith while outlawing Spiritual Knowledge. Resulting in the fact that while the Church should be able to intelligently explain the reasons why the Bible prohibits homosexuality, because of the consequences of the Church's own long history of the suppression and censorship of the voice of Spiritual Christians -- while actively promoting blind faith and the ritualization of the Gospel -- has undermined the whole foundation of the original Gospel objectives -- which is the mental development and spiritual enlightenment of the believer (see The Heightening And Expansion Of Mind).
In the pre-Nicene Church (325AD) there existed a body of mature Christians who could easily explain not only why the Bible rejects homosexuality -- but could also explain all other concepts presented in the Gospel. These early Christians never relied upon (blind) faith, because they possessed sure Spiritual Knowledge. This enlightened core of Spiritual Christians understood that God is the most Rational and Intelligent Force in all of Creation -- that there is a reason, a causal factor, and even a higher purpose for all events that transpire in this world -- and these Spiritually Mature Christians knew and comprehended all important reasons for every concept set forth in the Gospel teachings. But this enlightened intellect of the core body of Spiritual Christians presented a serious threat to the political leaders, and they were hunted down as heretics and murdered.
A wise man knows that history perpetually repeats itself -- and in the same way that it was said of Mao's Cultural Revolution that "Many intellectuals were sent to rural labour camps, and many of those who survived left China shortly after the revolution ended. Many survivors and observers suggest that almost anyone with skills over that of the average person was made the target of political 'struggle' in some way". In much the same way the Nicene Church was taken over by Pagan Rome, and the whole body of Spiritually Mature Christians were hunted down as heretics in order to silence all opposition to Imperial Rule over the Church and its acceptable doctrines of belief (see Atheists Never Exposed To Original Gospel Teachings). To the degree that neither the faith-based body of believers, or their non-believing critics, have any idea that one of the primary objectives of the Original Gospel Teachings is as a true System Of Education And Enlightenment. To the degree that from the perspective of man's higher reality, his present systems of education do more to inhibit genuine knowledge and the development of man's intellect, than to nurture and foster man's ultimate intellectual development and spirituality maturity.
There is a Divine Pattern of Creation -- a Divine Design within which all things have their place -- and the polarity of opposites which is portrayed in the concept of Mother/Father God, remains valid and true in man and woman, and embodies all things right down to the atomic structure of negatively charged electrons and positively charged protons.
In the manner of those who are victims of Stockholm Syndrome, because of the government intrusion into the Church and its doctrines of belief -- along with the suppression of important original teachings -- the Church today is a mere shadow of its original illustrious manifest reality.
What is not at all understood today is the fact that the biblical prohibition against homosexuality
