Assault on Mount Athos by Homosexual Groups!

Post by 尼古拉前执事 »

These links will be disturbing but when searching for info on Mount Athos I found that these firms are making vacations for active homosexuals that include going to Mount Athos and communing in the monasteries after their other "activities"! If I had not read this myself, I would have never believed this!

f.w.i.w.:

Yeah, they shouldn't sneak in. They should realise that they'd be happier just being who they are, regardless of what other people say. :)

we must prepare properly for The Most Holy Mysteries ,and unfortunately being homosexual is far from being properly prepared...
I dont see a problem with gays visiting , they might get turned around and see God`s love...

Yes, if there is one thing that traditional Orthodox are good at, it's showing love to those unlike themselves :roll:

I'm not going to get into another lesson on how this sick society equates "love" with acceptance of everything and anything - specifically with regard to "traditional" Orthodoxy. It is not so much that people even fail to understand that, but it is just so convenient make such ridiculous stereotypes as "traditionalists are not loving" in order to have at least some argument.

But with regards to the subject of this thread: Homosexuality is a perversion of God's design and will. Homosexuals are the same kind of perverts as child molesters, one finds pleasure in the same sex, another finds pleasure in sex with children (and some even with animals). The only difference is that one involves a partner that becomes a victim of his own ignorance and immaturity - and therefore his "rights" are violated - and this is a "rights" worshipping society. So society labels one as being "orientated" differently, and the other a pervert and puts him in jail. The fact is, they are both equally perverts.

So when these people organize themselves into a self-congratulating group of perverts with the expressed aim of exploring their sexual perversions in a place where "only other men are allowed" - well, I hope the monks don't give them any chance to desecrate any part of the Holy Mountain, and give them the boot in an ungratuitous manner. We are not concerned with men's laws, which is just an artificial system to prevent the total breakdown in society; we are concerned with God's laws, which are normal and are based on man's perfection.
