Althouse: "Early results suggest the Republic of Ireland has voted to legalise same-sex marriage in a historic referendum."

May 23, 2015

"Early results suggest the Republic of Ireland has voted to legalise same-sex marriage in a historic referendum."

"If the change is approved, the Republic of Ireland would become the first country to legalise same-sex marriage through a popular vote."

Nice work, Ireland!

Michael K said...: "The leader of the Catholic Church in Ireland, Eamon Martin, has said the church may look at whether it continues to perform the civil side of solemnisation if the change comes in."

This sounds about what should happen here.

"A separate referendum, on whether the eligibility age of presidential candidates should be lowered from 35 to 21, was being held at the same time, along with a parliamentary by-election in the Carlow-Kilkenny constituency."

ndspinelli said...: There is a big example of academic fraud regarding gay marriage. The Green/LaCouer report had fraudulent data. Professor Green has disowned the much heralded study in Science Mag, and LaCouer has lawyered up. Remember when we were told 10% of people are gay. Then an exhaustive CDC Study showed only 1.6% of people self identify as gay. Annie is a propagandist on this subject. Her gay son clouds her view, well that and the vino.; 5/23/15, 10:53 AM

n.n said...: Another pro-choice policy in lieu if principles. Homosexuality represents a small subset of trans orientations. The equivalence movement is notable for excluding other heterosexual and trans behaviors.

I wonder how many women will rent their wombs to normalize male homosexual couplets, and how many men will sell their sperm to normalize female homosexual couplets. The debasement of human life through progressive morality is impressive, if not, unfortunately, novel.

So, the takeaway is that progressive (i.e. generational) liberals are amoral/immoral and anti-science (and self-evident knowledge). They selectively normalize or promote behaviors antithetical to evolutionary fitness for causes of wealth, pleasure, and leisure (i.e. opportunistically). Their only concern seems to be to secure the stability of their environment, secular profits, and marginalization and neutralization of their competing interests.; 5/23/15, 11:18 AM

William said...: Tim Pat Coogan, in his book, Ireland in the 20th Century, points out that there was only one piece of Church sponsored legislation that went down to defeat. The Church wanted to mandate that the pubs be closed at 10:30 pm on week nights, but they couldn't muster support for the bill......The sex scandals in Ireland, especially among the Irish Christian Brothers, were truly horrendous. The Church has lost its ability to speak out on matters of sexual morality.......I was raised as a Catholic and have more reasons than not to be grateful to the Church, but I wouldn't look to priests for guidance in sexual matters.; 5/23/15, 11:30 AM
William said...: Does anyone know of a non-western society that is even willing to consider same sex marriage or civil unions? I can't think of any, but I might be wrong.......Gay marriage seems to be a western thing, and much of the animus directed against westerners is for their views on the rights of women and gays. Liberals feel it is a great crime for westerners to impose their values on others, but they make an exception in those two cases.; 5/23/15, 11:41 AM

Roughcoat said...: I'm against same-sex marriage but I don't care to fight that battle anymore because that battle is lost. I don't even want to talk about it.

Henceforth I'm resorting to the Benedict Option, in both the cultural and political spheres.

With exceptions: I remain involved with government/military agencies concerning certain Middle Eastern issues.

The homosexual/pedophile scandals in Ireland basically destroyed the Catholic Church in Ireland. In other words, the Catholic Church destroyed itself. Because of the conduct of gay/pedophile priests and of those who covered for their actions, the Catholic Church in Ireland is dead; Catholicism in Ireland is dead.

Gay men and women who are my friends tell me that Catholic priest pedophiles in Ireland and the U.S. are not gay and that the pedophile scandals should not be associated with being gay or the gay movement. They tell me that the being a pedophile has nothing to do with being gay. I tell them that they want to have it both ways; that they want to have their cake and eat it.

I'm bitter at gays because of this and until they change their attitudes in this and related matters I'll oppose their initiatives for advancing the gay agenda and my opposition will increase.

Gays, or rather a subset of the gay community (a term I use for wont of a better one), destroyed the Catholic Church in Ireland and have severely damaged Catholicism in the United States.

If Satan exists he could not have devised a more effective means of wrecking the Church.

And it should be noted that if he does exist he could not have devised a more effective means of turning people against gays.

If would seem that, if he does exist, he's intent on killing two birds with one stone and he's winning--so far. After the Church is destroyed he'll set about destroying gays.

I am not saying that being gay is satanic or that gays are servants of Satan. Far from it.

What I am saying is that we are all complicit to a greater or lesser degree, sometimes willingly, usually not, in enabling the evils of our times. Those who believe in Satan may say that we are being used by Satan to accomplish his evil ends. Those who don't believe in Satan may say that we are merely manifesting (and failing to constrain) the dark aspects of human nature.

I say: believe what you want. I'm withdrawing from the fray.; 5/23/15, 12:29 PM
chillblaine said...: The push for gay marriage has nothing to do with marriage. It is a desire to normalize and promote homosexual behavior.

After this country legalizes gay marriage, we will see a drive to have rainbow stickers displayed in the window of brick-and-mortar businesses and web presences. Absence of these displays will be de facto bigotry, and, to avoid incitement, civil rights tribunals will be empowered to sanction anyone in the public square who doesn't go along.

In the end, the Pope didn't have enough divisions to overcome this Stalinist incursion.; 5/23/15, 12:33 PM

After the depraved militants attack their villages, they strip the girls naked, conduct virginity tests, evaluate their bodies and send them to twisted auctions, Zainab Bangura claims.

Renee said...: Who said and when?

"From the crisis of today the Church of tomorrow will emerge—a Church that has lost much. She will become small and will have to start afresh more or less from the beginning. She will no longer be able to inhabit many of the edifices she built in prosperity. As the number of her adherents diminishes, so will she lose many of her social privileges. In contrast to an earlier age, she will be seen much more as a voluntary society, entered only by free decision.
As a small society, she will make much bigger demands on the initiative of her individual members. Undoubtedly she will discover new forms of ministry and will ordain to the priesthood approved Christians who pursue some profession. In many smaller congregations or in self-contained social groups, pastoral care will normally be provided in this fashion. Alongside this, the full-time ministry of the priesthood will be indispensable as formerly.
But in all of the changes at which one might guess, the Church will find her essence afresh and with full conviction in that which was always at her center: faith in the triune God, in Jesus Christ, the Son of God made man, in the presence of the Spirit until the end of the world. In faith and prayer she will again recognize her true center and experience the sacraments again as the worship of God and not as a subject for liturgical scholarship.
The Church will be a more spiritual Church, not presuming upon a political mandate, flirting as little with the Left as with the Right. It will be hard going for the Church, for the process of crystalization and clarification will cost her much valuable energy. It will make her poor and cause her to become the Church of the meek."; 5/23/15, 1:08 PM
ndspinelli said...: Renee, So many people are ignorant of history. Indeed, like may topics in history, there is a pendulum. It has swung secular the past several decades. It will swing back. I can abide the swings until they get too radical.

When I was an investigator for a prosecutor's office back in the 70's, the pendulum was swung against victims. It was blatantly unfair. Now, the pendulum has swung violently against defendants. MUCH more dangerous a swing. I find when the pendulum is in the middle, no matter which way has momentum, is generally when a culture is most successful.; 5/23/15, 1:09 PM

Just to put it in perspective.

And that assumption that half want to get married and can find a willing partner, is just an assumption I puled out of the air.

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: If you want further proof of how anti-science and brain-dead the political far-right Republicans are these days, nothing more is required than their nonsensical confusion of pedophilia with homosexuality - especially as demonstrated by the hardest of the die-hard followers on this thread.

I realize this is what a lot of them are told that they must believe by a self-destructive Church so deluded and scandalized as to actually keep insisting that celibacy is a requirement for spiritual leadership, but the facts are the facts. It is utterly false.

Pedophilia is its own orientation. Not that people who are compelled to deny their own sexuality would understand that. But it is true. Homosexuals are no more likely to molest children than heterosexuals, and in fact the latter is probably more likely if anything.

The fact that both homosexuals and pedophiles are attracted to the Catholic priesthood due to its insistence on celibacy and seeing all lust as sinful, does not mean that they are equivalent orientations. It just means have both attracted to the priesthood because they have long been taboo, and they see the moral presumptions conferred upon such membership as a path to acceptance. They, further, see the celibacy it insists upon as a way to legitimize their efforts to suppress urges that we once thought of as abominable (homosexuality) or still do (pedophilia).

So, it's the priesthood that attracts both. But that does not mean the two groups are the same, and neither does it make them equal. It just means the priesthood has traditionally been a natural place of retreat for both.

Not understanding all this, as obvious as it is to anyone else, is the natural consequence of being dictated to by a bureaucratic morality clique - one that places way too much emphasis on a fear of sexuality and on sexual ignorance.; 5/23/15, 8:45 PM
Renee said...: If there just three gay people in Ireland they shouldnt be unjustly discriminated against.

It isnt numbers, but the function & purpose of marriage in relation to public policy.

Marriage is still connected to the assumption of paternity, public policy governing public health and child care...

The theory is, all of Europe will come to Ireland to get married, as any countries marriage license is legal in all countries by treaties. Well, except in Arabia and Iran.

Course, if all countries promote unnatural (sorry wiktionary term) sexual intercourse, then this all becomes folly, and just another legal tax game.

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together said...: I don't know if the rate is "higher", but what's common knowledge is that a series of outrageous scandals has been ongoing in an institution where such a thing should be horrifying. Whether they're attracted (i.e. in greater number) to the priesthood for the reasons I suggested or not is speculation. But I gave it because it's rational to suppose so and makes sense. Better explanations would be interesting to entertain. I doubt they'll be forthcoming though as a lot of die-hard Church policy defenders seem to be in denial about a lot of things related to that. They view it as a familial institution that must be defended from any suggestion that it has been doing anything wrong in its dogma or how it goes about its business.; 5/23/15, 9:53 PM

Ireland had very few rights for fathers. With the decline of marriage, anyone living at the time of birth with mom gets guardianship.

Anonymous said...: I hypothesize that the conflating of homosexuality and pedophilia came about because many gay guys have the same porny obsession with youthful sex partners that het guys have - only it is directed towards boys instead of girls.

This is not strictly pedophilia, but the concentration of priests victimizing a majority boys rather than girls further blurred the lines. Other than a spasm of female teachers, the general public is not used to seeing boys in this light. Also in a het situation the boy is still not really considered a 'victim'(by other het guys) of an older woman, but rather a lucky kid that got to fulfill (supposedly) every guy's fantasy. This is not the case when it's male-male. Suddenly the kid is absolutely considered a victim.; 5/24/15, 7:20 PM

There is no upside to faggotry that anyone has been able to demonstrate outside of some blue-sky kin-selection hypothesis. Homosexuality is a disease that a better society would eradicate if it could. I feel bad for gays and some of them are nice people but promoting gaydom is like selling alcoholism or polio. It's anti-reason and anti-life.

The best that can be said of you promoters is that you are on autopilot and think it is necessary to be true to your notion of principle. That or you want to be down with the in crowd.
