SEXUALITY & LOVE : NEWS INSIGHTS FROM NATURE AND HERO STORIES

"May our heterosexist, religious & materialistic friends find an open sexuality, a real god and the joys of nature".(Anon).

HETEROSEXUALITY IS NOT AS NORMAL AS WE THINK

My interest is a scholarly one, where I delve into homosexual studies, both human and animal homosexuality.

Bottlenose dolphins, cheetahs & grizzly bears only bond with the same sex, for life. So much for heterosexuality being the norm in nature. Did you know that researcher Edgar Gregersen states in his books that of the 4,000 mammals, only 7 bond male-female in a monogamous relationship for life ?

Heterosexuals can have natural sex in order to produce babies, but homosexuals can not do this naturally. However, homosexuals can have natural sex for pleasure purposes, but heterosexuals can not do this naturally, as they must rely on artificial / unnatural devices such as condoms, the pill, pulling out, and so on. So is anyone really homosexual or heterosexual ? Are we all bisexual ? Do women ever understand men, and do men ever understand women ?

Various scientists and sexologists have examined homosexuality in our human ancestors (eg: Prof Lewis Binford), and our closest living ancestors, the chimps, and countless hundreds of animals. Animals engage in all sorts of activity including transvestism, or they can change their gender at will, physically. There are even immaculate conceptions. There are now several books that are extremely well-researched, where you can now get to see what zoologists, biologists and other scientists did not want us to know for years. One of many of these books is listed below, and is called "Biological Exuberance".

RELIGION vs. HOMOSEXUALITY

I believe in god. I do not believe in religion which is man-made, but I do believe in spirituality which is god-made. Thus I believe very little of what religious texts tell us, where same are ultimately based on greed (wars), soldiers to fight these wars (heterosexual concept of 'marry and multiply), and where people will only do this if god tells them too (religion). Simply put, to fulfill the pockets of Greed of the power-mongers, one needs the Breed, where the Creed instructs us to breed (and indeed fulfill greed for our own selves too - we are to "subdue the earth" it says in Genesis). I believe in a Natural Spirituality, because if god exists, then he, she or it, created nature and nature's laws, which we hardly follow. Homosexuality is entirely natural, where if you are interested in delving further, continue reading below.

GAY HEROES, GAY RELIGIOUS MASTERS and A GAY JESUS

Before the story of Jesus (whether he existed or not), there are countless other myths about other religious masters that parallel his story. This was around his own time and also thousands of years before. These folk are known as 'Savior' ('Saviour') gods or 'Resurrection & Rebirth' gods. There are also homosexual relationships that they enjoy for Spiritual and other reasons.

There are also stories of what are known as the great Homosexual Heroes of ancient times. Indeed, mythology is replete with many gay hero stories, and gay religious masters or an inclination for them towards the gay way of life. No doubt due to Plato's 'The Good, The Beauty and The Truth', but also maybe due to Paul in the Bible, who states that those who do not marry a woman, are more concerned with spiritual, than material things. There are dozens of other reasons as well. There is also no doubt that heterosexuality is favoured in man's religions, as it serves the purpose of providing soldiers to fight their greedy wars.  If you want to read further about these gods and myths, see the book and DVD lists below.

Homosexual Behaviour in Animals by Volker Sommer & Paul L. Vasey
A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawkings

The Da Vinchi Code has some helpful insights, however its heterosexist stance that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene is quite out of keeping with the homosexual hero stories and homosexual religious masters who have spanned history and prehistory. If anything, Jesus had a male lover, which is well-explained in several of the books above.

DVD's

The God That Wasn't There (see how religion harms people and the environment).
Stephen Hawkings Universe (big bang and more).
The Unknown Jesus (there were many Jesus's).

SO YOU'RE HOOKED ?

If you want to know more about debunking religion, heterosexism and greed (which serve as handmaidens to each other), or about Homosexuality and how it relates to Spirituality and Plato's 'Good, Beauty & Truth', then read my other Reviews & Guides on these Subjects, and see book and DVD lists above.

Tidbit: One of the closest similarities to Jesus and the "Youth" is that of Hercules and his male lover, Hylas, with parallels like the river, a cave, nakedness, man lying upon man, wearing a loin cloth, asking the older one for love, etc.
