LSN - ‘Sex box’ for Swiss kindergarteners has genitalia toys: will teach sexuality is pleasurable

From Life Site News comes this truly horrific story.

BASEL, August 25, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Kindergarten children in Basel, Switzerland will be presented this year with fabric models of human genitalia in a “sex box” to teach them that “contacting body parts can be pleasurable.”

The kit for teachers to give sex-education lessons to primary school children uses models and recommends having children massage each other or to rub themselves with warm sand bags, accompanied by soft music, according to The Local, a Swiss newspaper in English.

“Children should be encouraged to develop and experience their sexuality in a pleasurable way,” Daniel Schneider, a deputy kindergarten rector for Basel who helped develop the sex ed curriculum along with experts, had said earlier this year.

To kindergartners.  To KINDERGARTNERS!

They want to teach KINDERGARTNERS TO MASTURBATE!

This is the end result of the push for "sex education" on our children.  Teachers teaching children how to masturbate and to have sex...

I'm utterly sickened.  I can't even muster anything to really say about this horrible story.  And this is the route Obama and his ilk want to take us down.

Pay attention Christians, this is what will happen if you are not vigilant.  We must fight back against this culture of corruption that is poisoning our children.  Smash the Kinsey legacy!

LSN: Obama admin website: infants and children are ‘sexual beings’

Via LSN:

WARNING: disturbing content.

WASHINGTON, D.C., August 24, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Borrowing Planned Parenthood’s talking points almost verbatim, the Obama administration is now encouraging parents to begin thinking about their children, and even babies, as “sexual beings” who should be allowed to sexually stimulate themselves from infancy.

“Children are human beings and therefore sexual beings,” says a Q&A about sex directly linked to by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).  “It’s hard for parents to acknowledge this, just as it’s hard for kids to think of their parents as sexually active. But even infants have curiosity about their own bodies, which is healthy and normal.”

The page was reported by NewsBusters before it was picked up by Fox News on Tuesday.

The talking points on the page closely reflect the counseling on a parenting page by Planned Parenthood, the nation’s top contraception and sex education lobby, where readers are told they “need to give babies a sense of themselves, their sexuality, and their bodies from birth.”

Sounds like a page taken from the "research" of Dr. Kinsey or something ripped from the pages of a NAMBLA publication, and not anything you would expect to find on an official government website.

Then again, this is Obama administration we're talking.  This man and his cabinet of fools have taken progressive lunacy and thrown into the center of American life.

The idea that infants and children are "sexual beings" is ludicrous.  Infants touch themselves, yes, but for sexual pleasure?  You've got to be joking.  Are they "born gourmets" because they put things in their mouths?  I don't think so.  This argument is something that was peddled by Dr. Kinsey in his infamous "research" (which, by the way, used information gathered from pedophiles who raped innocent children in the name of science, with the knowledge and encouragement of Kinsey), and was later taken up by the pro-pedophilia movement started by groups like NAMBLA (read one of their publications and the information on the DHHS website and you'll find the same vile talking points). 

The whole thing shows just how far we as a society have fallen, and why we need, as a society, to turn back to God and acknowledge Christ as King, all of us, if we're ever to fix the damage wrought by the "progressives".

Lord, have mercy on us all!

WOC throws a nutty over female altar servers

Father Z's blog at wdtprs.com brings us this latest hissy fit from the dissenters at Women's Ordination Conference, this time over the decision of the Phoenix diocese to only allow male altar servers at it's cathedral.

Father Z's commentary is preserved because, frankly, it's hilarious.

Women’s Ordination Conference [WOC!] Decries Ban on Altar Girls in Phoenix Diocese
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: August 22, 2011
Contact: Erin Saiz Hanna, 202 675-1006, woc@womensordination.org
Women’s Ordination Conference Decries [A high dudgeon word if ever there was one.] Ban on Altar Girls in Pheonix Diocese [No... really.  Pheonix, who was, I believe both one of their large puppets as well as a character with mottled skin in a Star Trek series.]
WASHINGTON, DC – August 22, 2011 – Girls will no longer be allowed to serve as altar servers during Mass at the cathedral of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Phoenix, SS. Simon and Jude. In response, Women’s Ordination Conference has issued an action alert [aaahWOOOOgah!] calling on the Diocese to immediately reinstate female altar servers in that parish.  [More on this, below.]
“If young women in the Phoenix diocese want to grow up to work for the Church – or even aspire to the priesthood [not gonna happen] – I, and the vast majority of U.S. Catholics, don’t see the harm in that, said Erin Saiz Hanna, executive director of the Women’s Ordination Conference. [Because in the Catholic Church doctrine is determined by the number of people who believe something.] “Around the country, young women have been lawfully serving at the altar for well over a decade.” [More on this below.]
Reportedly, Rev. Lankeit banned girls from the altar because he wants only boys to prepare for priesthood in this way. [Hold on there.  That is an assumption.  Are they working from the newspaper article or did anyone from COW call the rector of the cathedral and ask him?  It could be that he is also trying to follow what the Holy See said was the "preferable" practice.  It is still permitted to obey Rome, no?] Since 1994, the Vatican and the U.S. Bishops have allowed female altar servers. There is no restriction in Canon Law for women to help at the altar during the liturgy.  [And there is no right, either.  There is, however, a tradition and clearly expressed preference in the Holy See's documents on the matter.]
“This is not only disgraceful, it is impractical. Women comprise at least 80 per cent of church lay ministers, and they are backbone of most parishes around the world,” continued Hanna. [Oh my!  What is WOC going to do about the manifest discrimination against men filling these roles?  JUSTICE! we must cry, JUSTICE!]
“The Vatican’s stance on the ordination of women is based on arguments that have been refuted time and again. [Refuted?  Because WOC says so?  Pfffft.] In 1976, the Vatican’s own Pontifical Biblical Commission determined that there is no scriptural reason to prohibit women’s ordination.  [And there is no scriptural prohibition against slavery either.  We can, in WOC-logic both ordain women and also enslave them.] Jesus included women as full and equal partners in his ministry, [ROLF! One of the dumbest things I have read in a looooong time.  Hanna, read this carefully.  NOBODY was Jesus "full and equal partner in His ministry".  Jesus was Master and Lord.  The greatest man born of women, John the Baptist, said he wasn't worthy to untie the Lord's sandal.  The Mother of God said to listen to and obey her Son.  The Apostles themselves had a hierarchy within their ranks and they only did what they did in Jesus' Name.  Priests today are partners and collaborators with the bishops, but they are not exactly "full and equal" partners of the bishops.  They have different roles.] and the hierarchy would do well to follow suit,” Hanna concluded.

So let's recap; the WOC, who are already bad enough for advocating the impossible (women's "ordination") and conducting fake ordinations of wymyn in defiance of Church authority, presume to lecture the Phoenix diocese on what to do with it's cathedral church.  They ignore that it has been a long-standing tradition of using only males for altar servers, instead screaming "SEXISM!  *sad face*.

Someone needs to remind these women what it really means to be Catholic.  That means you are obedient to the Church in all matters of doctrine (including on the matter of women's ordination, as it is doctrine, not discipline, that women may not be ordained to the priesthood, not now, not ever), and you don't presume to lecture the bishop on every single matter just because you feel you can.

Readers, please offer prayers for these women.

LSN: Florida High School removes teacher for criticizing gay "marriage"

LINK

MOUNT DORA, FL, August 18, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Mount Dora High School has removed a veteran social-studies teacher Gerald (Jerry) Buell from his classroom for Facebook comments critical of homosexual ‘marriage’. Christopher Patton, Communications Officer for Lake County Schools told LifeSiteNews that Buell was moved to administrative duties pending the results of an investigation into a suspected code of ethics violation.

On his personal Facebook account, outside of school time, Buell posted a reaction to New York’s passage of homosexual ‘marriage’ saying he “almost threw up.” He also referred to homosexual unions as sinful and referred to it as part of a “cesspool” of behaviors in remarks quoted by the Sentinel.

Harsh words certainly, but it speaks volumes about the direction that this country is heading when a school can fire a teacher for a personal opinion delivered over his private Facebook profile.  Is there any doubt that there is persecution of those who speak the truth going on in this country?  I think not.

Lord Jesus, have mercy on us all!

Bishop Aquila on Pro-Abort Pols

This is what Bishop Samuel Aquila had to say about unrepentant pro-abortion Catholic politicians.

US Bishop on unrepentant pro-abort pols: ‘Treat them as a tax collector or Gentile. Expel him.’

FARGO, North Dakota, August 11, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The Church should seek the conversion of pro-abortion politicians, but if they remain obstinate they should be expelled from the Church, says Bishop Samuel Aquila of Fargo.

The Bishop proposed in an interview with Catholic World Report this week that Bishops should take their cue from the Gospel of Matthew in handling pro-abortion politicians.

“Our Lord tells us to speak to the person, and then take two or three others with us if he does not change,” he said. “If he still does not change, the Church can speak to him, which is done through the bishop. [The bishop] exercises the authority of Christ. Christ then says that if that person is still obstinate and will not change, treat them as a tax collector or Gentile. Expel him.’”

The Bishop continued: “Catholics are called to defend human life, particularly that of the unborn. The Church’s teaching is clear. If we don’t challenge public officials who reject this teaching, we leave them in their sins and confuse the faithful.”

A huge CIVB kudos to Bishop Aquila! 

Aquila, who has been the spiritual head of the diocese of Fargo in North Dakota for ten years, is well known for his support for the pro-life cause.

A 10-year-old GLAMOR MODEL!?

From the truly despicable minds at Vogue magazine comes this atrocity. 

Thylane Lena-Rose Blondeau is 10, but an issue of French Vogue, in which she wears heavy makeup, stilettos and a come-hither look has stirred up an adult-sized controversy.

The images of Thylane, which appeared in the magazine's December/January issue but were brought back into the spotlight in a "Good Morning America" segment on Thursday, are firing arguments about the sexualization of young girls. Some see it as part of an overall recent trend toward younger models. (Although one might argue that it is hard for a young girl to get a break, given all the fortysomething movie stars hogging covers nowadays.)

 Let's see; a pre-pubescent girl dolled up to look like an adult supermodel and photographed in sexually suggestive poses and images.  Sounds less like something you'd find in a major magazine and more like something you'd find hidden deep inside the hard drive of a sex offender's computer. 

It always amazes me that the same culture that rightly lambastes those who molest children, when something like this appears, has people leaping to it's defense.  Come one!  This is little more than legal child pornography!  This is the stuff that fuels pedophiles and contributes to sexual immorality amongst the youth and adults.  It's time for people of faith to oppose this sewage, pronto!

Pax Christi.
