The Foley Blame Game

It would be nice, if every once in awhile when someone does something stupid , they would stand up and take responsibility. My waiting continues....

Rep. Mark Foley has now blamed his lewd behavior with an underage boy on alcohol and sexual abuse by a clergyman. I don't know what Mr. Foley has endured in his life and it is obvious has has some problems. Still, there is no excuse for the type of deviant behavior former Congressman Mark Foley has admitted to.

I'd like to hear those representing the homosexual community denounce the actions of Foley, but they never will. Homosexuality is every bit a part of the culture of death as is abortion and contraception. Acknowledging some things are not acceptable, puts those issues at risk. Not surprisingly, Foley was an ardent supporter of both, representing the interests of Planned Parenthood 64 percent of the time thus far in 2006.

Can we really not see the link here? All these actions that some claim are "rights" denigrate the intrinsic dignity of and respect for human life. Then all of a sudden a child is not child and therefore I can abuse a child in pursuit of my own pleasure. This is the thought that allows a person to rationalize deviant behavior.

Victims of abuse should understand the destructiveness and not use evil as and excuse for evil. Support for these actions breed a mindset where life becomes a commodity and the highest achievement is self-indulgence, which inevitably leads to the reckless behavior we are now witnessing across this country. From teachers to clergy, we opened the door when so called "tolerance" knocked.

There is a movement in this nation to just accept homosexuals. Anything less is bigotry and hatred. Or maybe they will call it homophobia and intolerance. Whatever battle cry is chosen, we must stand firm and not allow the abuse of children, the approval of homosexuality and the continued attacks from those who see to weaken and dishonor the priesthood.

Foley's action show him to be a homosexual predator. Homosexuals continue their lifestyle campaign through a cycle of disordered behavior that creates future generations of abusers and predators.

Foley must be brought to justice as should anyone guilty of perpetrating similar crimes against him. Past abuse is not an excuse for deviant behavior. Any person who knowingly covered up this despicable behavior should be removed from office.
