Nova Scotia has universal health care. It is a nice place to live until you break a hip and then someone from your own gov says that you are no longer an asset to the country. THEY WILL LET YOU DIE.............................

"As demonstrated by the 4th century Romans, high Islamic, and 1930s British societies, rampant homosexuality among ruling elites is an indication of civilization in decline."

I'm aware of what occurred in two of the three societies you've listed, above. Forgive my ignorance, but I'd never heard of the 30s British thing.

Would you mind expanding just a little on [that]??

I'd have thought something like that --ie Brit ruling elite immersed in deviant behavior(s)-- would've been more widely known, quite important in the scheme of things.
Yet here I am, uninformed.

If a link would save you time, fine.
TIA. :^)

"Sorry so late..."

No problemo, my friend.
Ol' Polish proverb says, "Some have a life, some don't" for explaining these things.
You, have a life. :^)

"...but in maine we have this right to repeal a law that these jackasses write. We need 60 days and 50,000 votes. It will happen..oh yes..it will..."

I *believe* you. ;^)

However, if and/or when y'all succeed?
Methinks the news would merit its own thread, don't you?

When it does happen do ping me, OK?

I'd really like to keep abreast of this development in Maine. Just in case ideas, inspiration etc are needed for potential fights here in WI.

Thanks, and best of luck! ;^)

I pulled my comment quite close to a quote from one of my favorite books, “Medieval History” by Norman Cantor, 1963 pp. 24,25. Written before the age of Aquarius and hippies, I find the book to be unadulterated by Leftist nonsense.

The author was examining various opinions as to why the Roman state slowly disintegrated and merely noticed widespread acceptance of homosexuality as coincident with malfunctioning social and moral orders of other societies as well. There is no elaboration of the 1930s English.

In our age we not only have widespread acceptance of deviant behavior but demands that this behavior be condoned and made co-equal with civilization's basic unit, the heterosexual family. Oh, and this perversion is coincident with the past 60 years degradation of our wonderful constitution.

Sorry, no link.

Fair enough.
I know precisely what you're saying.
Same thing can easily be observed in today's motion pictures, also.
I mean could a Ben Hur or Network be made today by Hollyweird, even IF they could find actors up to the task among the himbos & bimbos?
>Of course not. I highly doubt it.

Even if someone out their lost their marbles & tried, one of the classics attempted? It'd be so far from what the original author(s) had intended, complete with altered moral message(s) etc, as to be absurd.
There've been many precedents to buttress that fact, too.
Interestingly enough?
Sometimes I've found propaganda leftist shills & dolts employ when writing "books" {spit} while despicable, may also be quite useful when turned around & used against 'em.
Easy to do considering how little of their "fact(s)" are based on anything but baloney.

"The author was examining various opinions as to why the Roman state slowly disintegrated and merely noticed widespread acceptance of homosexuality as coincident with malfunctioning social and moral orders of other societies as well."

*Noticed*, huh.
How astute of the man, I'm sure he's tenured. {g}
Kidding aside, sounds like he was *trying* to be fair. Not direct the reader in lieu of the reader making up their own mind.
You're right, he's an anachronism.

"There is no elaboration of the 1930s English."

I see, unfortunate.
Perhaps one of today's grad students in psych c/would find the subject worthy of further investigation?

"In our age we not only have widespread acceptance of deviant behavior but demands that this behavior be condoned and made co-equal with civilization's basic unit, the heterosexual family. Oh, and this perversion is coincident with the past 60 years degradation of our wonderful constitution."

Amen to that, nicely synopsizes the *predicament* while suggesting one very plausible link to the beginning of the fall.

"Sorry, no link."

I'll get over it, thanks. :^)

Y'know, Jacq?
I *think* one may extrapolate all the proof they'd needed as to the influence of homosexual elites on GB & GB's culture by simply examining what the formerly great empire is, today.

Thanks again, my friend. :^)

Sorry my friend, it's Monday.
Am feeling unusually thick this morning. {g}

Care to explain?
I'd be very appreciative. ;^)

Wilde was the original JFKerry, at least in terms of sodomy and socialism...can’t remember what the other “s” stood for. In Wilde’s case he was an advocate of the latter and practitioner of the former. Among the degenerate of his class it was referred to as the higher sodomy.

BWHAAAA!!!
Thank you my friend, I got the picture in spite of the missing 'S'. ;^)

Ahhhhhh, I *see*.

Well listen to this.
There's a disgraced former archbishop, a pedophile. This clown's tell-all book is about to come out, IIRC, sometime within the next two weeks.

In his *book* IF you've the stomach.

In any event, sounds like he might've been a protege of one Oscar Wilde. ;^)

Thanks for the explanation.
While [I'm] still a dolt?
A smarter dolt, now. :^)
