Confusion

We can all agree that we live in an era of confusion. Many times I've heard the remark "it's as if the world has turned upside down!" made in despair by parents, all kinds of adults and specially by young people. Some of you may have heard it too, or even made this kind of statement yourself. I, for one, have done so myself. 

What do we mean with "confusion"? Well, first of all, there is confusion about values, about moral standards, about personal identities. Young people and even children all of a sudden are questioning their own gender and their sexuality, something which I personally, as a historian, cannot recall having seen or read about it in the past. So that's an unique thing. Some days ago, an icon of confused values and identity launched the term "pansexuality". I'm still having problems with grasping the exact meaning of this neologism, as no one can explain it to me either. The confusion evoked by this word neatly sums up the murky zone in which many of our children and youngsters are stumbling along. I see gay, lesbian and bisexual (or are they all pansexual?) people popping up all around me in the social media. And I ask myself as an educator, with half a century behind me, if I have always been surrounded by so many people of the homosexual persuasion, and never noticed it? Or is it a symptom of this "era of confusion" with gay weddings and all? Are many of these youngsters not sure themselves of what they are, of who they are - or is something else going on? 

I was brought up with the idea that "true" homosexuality - not the cultural kind - comes along with conception. That is probably has hereditary roots, that it's something in your DNA, and has little to do with upbringing or education. That it clearly stands separated from what I call "cultural homosexuality", behavior adopted through peer pressure, surroundings, culture and the odd experimenting we inherited from the crazy 1960's. I guess many of you know what I mean, and why I make this distinction. Because that is what Western educated society has taught us, through reasoning and scientific proof to show that being gay is nothing to be ashamed of.  As an educator, teacher and school coach, I treated all of my students according to this principle. Being gay is no reason for discrimination, nor bullying, nor attack. 

This last point should have set off little alarm bells inside me in those less confusing days - in hindsight. I admit, as a straight man, that I still applaud the idea that true homosexuality as a state of mind is nothing to be ashamed about - Christian religion only condemns the homosexual act, but not homosexuality as such.  But the efforts made by our Western opinion makers in the last 40 years or so to sell the idea of "being gay is OK" to the world, suddenly look odd to me now. Was the true intention to sell this idea to the world, to improve and normalize the status of gays in society? Or was it all along the plan to impose the gay view on the world on the rest of us, i.e. that "straight" people are prejudiced, narrow-minded, intolerant? And that homosexuals are all the opposite, with their nice rainbow flags and their free view on morality, sexuality, religion and everything else?

Listen, I do NOT attack gays here. I do question however the true intentions of opinion makers in the media and elsewhere. I see how the gay community - homosexuals, lesbians, transsexuals, the whole lot - are being paraded around to achieve some sort of goal. I know enough gays who really don't agree with what is happening around them right now. Which should ring a bell or two with some more conservative-minded among us. 

That goal, it has now become clear to me, is to transform society into something unrecognizable to you and me. This is not about giving equal or even more rights to the gay communities, because many gays don't care about it that much. And I have more and more the feeling that has never been the intention at all. The empowerment of the gay community world-wide is only a spear-point of a complete transformation of societies all over our planet. Call it an opening salvo, an excuse to break down the gate and enter the walled city. 

Who is behind it?

There is great uncertainty about politics, about leaders, about the road the world is travelling. Haven't you noticed that our leaders in the West are suddenly moving in exactly the opposite direction? In Europe, members of the political establishment are applauding the arrival of millions of homeless persons called "refugees' to their countries. And forcing the peoples of those countries to accept it, or else. What is happening right now in the European Union, is nothing less than the transformation of a 1500-year-old culture into something never seen before. Call it transformation, destruction, whatever. The big difference between the previous migrations between AD 200 and 500, which destroyed the Roman Empire and all of romanized  Europe (causing the destruction of the Celtic culture), and the migrations of today, is that today's European leaders are welcoming it! There is only one reason for this apparent madness, this suicidal tendency of societies - there are powerful people who want to force a transformation of societies, no matter the cost. Same in the US, which is moving along similar lines. These leaders have a name, and a face. But behind them are countless others who will move forward to replace the ones you know. It's like a hydra. 

And to those observing the going-on within the Roman Catholic Church at this very moment - listen carefully and you can hear the demolition teams working in full force, banging and breaking away at the 1900-year-old structures. Today's pope seems to be gripped by a transforming fever much like his secular colleagues all over the Western world. Even the figure of Jesus Christ is now being discussed, as are the texts of the Bible. I have no doubt that within time, "new" bibles will be printed and published, adding to a total confusion and eventually, to the destruction of Rome, which will be applauded as the victory of the "new times" to come. For those hating the Catholic church and belonging to other Christian congregations - don't cheer, because the next ones to be demolished will be you. 

And after that, the other world religions will be the next ones to be "reformed". This might cause some hefty wars, as a religion like Islam will not leave the house without burning it down first, but in the mind of a politician, wars mean spring cleaning. Less persons to control, more room left. And the more violence, the better - it will fit the picture that "religions mean war and hatred". Sometimes I wonder about what triggered the war in Syria in 2011.... don't you?

There is a fire sale going on. Everything simply has to "go", it all has to be modern and new. Religion, moral values, education, our whole view on ourselves and humanity  are being reviewed, put upside down, overturned, changed. Squashed to an unrecognizable pulp. 

And all this is triggered by a select and partly hidden group of powerful persons who are interested in just one thing. More Power. New World Order, world government, world religion, illuminati, Novus Ordo, call it whatever you like. Power over all of humanity and the planet. Total power. Power over you and your way of thinking and acting. With implanting chips into everyone of us, total control will be easy. And changing our ways of thinking through endless media streams all proclaiming one "truth", managing and controlling us should become easy overtime, once the remnants of those called retrogrades, old-fashioned, intolerants, narrow-minded, stupid, have been pushed away to the margins of New Society, left to wither away. Brave New World is coming towards us, it's no fiction anymore. 

That is why there is so much confusion all around us. The confusion has been set in place to confuse us all, change our views, our beliefs, our ways of thinking. That is my firm conviction. 

What can you do about it? A lot. Make sure there is NO confusion around you. Let your yes be a yes, and your no be a no. And make sure your children, if you have them, learn that from you. As long as your own family, your own community are difficult to crack, you are earning points in this struggle. Make it as hard as possible for you to get controlled. The clue is winning time, throwing confusion back in the faces of those who spread it around. No war is being won before fighting one last battle. 

And never, ever, betray yourself or what you stand for. No matter if you're straight or gay.
