Oh goodness... Paring this up with what I've read about all the old pagan cults in the post flood world, it's not a surprise to see newer versions of the same sin, but being practiced with a fresh coat of technology and demonic deception.
Bless you brother. Thanks for continuing to address the sin elephants in the room thst need to be addeessed.
I would love to hear your views on the obsession of leftists with veganism. I read someone recently, I can't remember who, who seemed to put his finger on it; they like vegetables because they are not reproduced by sexual intercourse. Thus, it stems from their hatred of human fruitfulness. But is that all?
Awesome. FYI, I found the quote I was thinking of:
"A certain sort of sexuality, non-procreative in nature, appears throughout the history of Gnosticism. The word buggery, a synonym for sodomy, derives from a group of medieval Gnostics known as Bogomils, a descendant of the early charismatic sect, the Messalians. The same non-procreative understanding of love fueled Socrates' celebration of pederasty in the Phaedrus. Or again, there is the Gnostic practice of coitus interrupts which we see in its various permutations, as in tantric sex practices and in the sex practices of the utopian Oneida Community. For similar reasons the Gnostics condemned marriage. The Apostle Paul had the Gnostics in mind when he warned against those who forbid marriage and command abstinence from foods "which God [i.e. the evil Yaltabaoth, in the mind of the Gnostic] created." (I Timothy 4: 3) Later third century Marcionite groups believed marriage fulfilled the "work of Satan."110 Irenaeus likewise testified to this Gnostic impulse: "Marriage and procreation, they maintain, are of Satan. Many of [their] followers abstain from [meat]."111 This rejection of marriage, along with vegetarianism (because vegetables are food not produced by sexual intercourse), follows the Gnostic stream throughout history."

Brother, that's a good idea. I'll put that on the list. If you don't see that in a few weeks, remind me.
