In Chapter 3 of The Smoke of Satan in the Temple of God, I write:
If one is
worldly and hedonistic, Satan enters with temptations of the flesh. One hears
often that the “liberation” of the human libido began in earnest in the United
States in the “sexual revolution” of the 1960s. Americans, troubled over
repressive attitudes toward human sexuality, hoped for a revolution that would
free them from outdated moral and social constraints. It resulted not in
liberation but in license and a host of societal sexual crises. Since the onset
of the sexual revolution, we have had to face an ever-increasing array of
sexual problems. One has only to think of the tremendous increase in the number
of post-1960s illegitimate births and abortions, sexually transmitted diseases,
opposition to censorship of pornography (especially on the Internet), and the
resulting sexual addiction (in some extreme instances resulting in murder).
Consider too the tremendous blows to marriage and the family done by adultery,
the battle over the homosexual lifestyle in the United States, Canada and
Europe (now to the point of the redefinition of marriage under the law); the
increasing incidences of sexual harassment, child pornography on the Internet,
Internet predators, date rape, and of course, the divorce rate.
Currently in the United States we are faced with a growing movement in favor of fostering one of these crises, the destruction of the family. The arguments one hears in favor of so-called same sex MARRIAGE are discussed in a fine recent piece by Jennifer Fulwiler!
