Red Light District America - The Dominating and Oppressing Sexual Culture in America
The Ignorant Fishermen Blog ^ | 7/27/09 | DJP I.F.

Posted on 07/27/2009 8:53:18 PM PDT by The Ignorant Fisherman

It is nearly impossible to go anywhere in the United States of America today and not sense the oppressive sexual culture in which we live. It is a subliminal, hypnotic barrage of immoral images, lewd language and erotic enticements that consciously and subconsciously affects our entire nation. It has gone so far that we have become a base and morally callous people. Where can anyone go today without being continuously bombarded by the “24/ 7” decadent drumbeat of this licentious orchestra? We have indeed become a “Red Light District” nation!

This hypnotic drum beat comes from all different sources of media: TV, radio, the internet, billboards, advertising, the music industry, the fashion world, Hollywood, the sports world, newspapers, magazines, tabloids, classrooms, college campuses, government,….and on and on. Every facet of life has been affected. Every nook and cranny of American culture has been permeated and contaminated with this sickening vice. Teaching and preaching the moral values and virtues that are vital to preserve a healthy society brings only hate and slander from the vast secular faction here in the United States.

Dear “Old Enough”, You are obviously a person who has some sense of values. Your tagline says as much.

I believe that what Madison is calling for in his post is local and personal initiative - which is precisely the type of self-government the Founders intended for America. (I make this assumption from my reading not only of the Constitution, but the Federalist Papers.)

To color all who hold strict moral values as “bigots” is to fly in the face of Adams statement that the “...Constitution is suited to the governance of a moral and religious people, it is wholly unsuited to any other...”

This is not to suppose that the non-believer cannot prosper and find happiness in America. The America I know is big enough for the Deist Jefferson, the Evangelical Billy Graham and the Atheist Ayn Rand - all of whom would champion the country, its values and its tolerance.

Tolerance, however, cannot be confused with license, nor can it be allowed to inhibit the natural impetus of each community within the Nation to construct its own ordinances for self-governance. Nowhere in the Bill of Rights will you find a securing of the right to fornicate, pander or debase a community.

If the majority of Americans choose to live in a sewer of licentiousness and filth, then they will find that their nation will soon resemble the Socialist Utopias that both you and I fought to prevent America from becoming.

Are Las Vegas and New Orleans the pinnacle of American culture? I hope not!

Are they part of the fabric of this society? Probably so - but just because a garment has some frayed and dirty edges, that doesn’t mean that the whole doesn’t serve its function.

You took some time to champion the brothel culture of Europe, but in the same post your tagline disavowed the Socialist Culture that is its natural outgrowth.

Which is the symptom and which is the disease is open for debate, but that the two go hand in hand is not.

A perspective on this can be found in the work of the aforementioned Atheist, Ayn Rand, who wrote: “In any compromise between good and evil, it is only evil that can profit.”

I agree that no one is forcing me to watch the rubbish on electronic media. When I watch TV, I prefer to put in one of my DVD’s from the Golden Age of both movie and television. Or I don’t watch at all. I’ll read(which is better,anyway) or do something else. Hitting the off switch on the TV is the moral equivalent of flushing a commode. Unfortunately, the stench lingers on in our TV-ized culture in which I must work, shop and live. Just as you have the right to decide what to watch(as do I),I have the right to despise the moral rot in our culture and to actively oppose it.

“The author of this slanted, biased, one sided, intolerant rant doesn't have a clue”.

We already know that, what about the posted article, Red Light District America........?

Those who are not on either end of the zealot scale will pray for your enlightenment but since you have the ability to read the minds of 80% of the American public you already knew that.

“It is easy to print these attack rants”

Yes, we know, just as no forced you to read the article, no one is forcing your little fingers to the keys.

“I can't stand non tolerant zealots”.

I can't either so I'll leave you to yourself.

“We are sick and tired of all flavors of bigots”.

My, my, you both must be soooo conflicted! But now that you've let all that bile out, do either of you feel better?

When you and you get back from your European cruise come back and talk but only one of you at a time. g’night.

To: liberalism is suicide

I understand what your saying. fortunately where I work we have dress codes so there ain’t a lot of butts showing. So it’s drive into the big city work and drive back home. I purposely moved out of Wichita Kansas because of all the crime and gang bangers. we have one main highway through the middle of town going south and north the one I drive to work on every day and you never know when some dumb shit is going to pull a gun on you if he or she felt like you dis them or something so I’d rather not drive around to much in Wichita, and I work 2nd shift so it in town before the 5:00 rush and it out of town after midnight.

Lately I’ve been alternating between second and third shifts. After so long a time on second shift I decided to try third shift and found that I prefer it and would like to stay on it permanently. But management has other ideas.

The truth is that the Christian faith is STILL the largest religion and is growing in what is called the “global south” of Latin America,Asia,and Africa. The big 3 Christian churches leading in this growth in the global south is the Roman Catholic Church,Anglican,and Pentacostal/Evangelical churches.

Islam comes in second in numbers.

Freewill... It’s your choice...but..Why are you so defensive about God and the Bible if it is irrelative? I think you know deep down inside the Bible is Almighty God’s Word and you’re very afraid. God loves you do not have to lash out and be fearful. Why don’t you read what great things God has for you?

I know what this guy is doing he’s a seminar freeper... your trying to stir the pot to get all worked up and up set.. If you want to be a whoremonger then go ahead.. but expect to reap the doings of your deeds. If you cannot see that this immoral vice has destroyed our Country you are a reprobate. Why don’t you go back to Moveon.org and hate with some of your own kind. Almighty God loves you don’t turn your back on Him.

You are a parasite.

You benefit from the heritage of morality we Americans inherited, which is based in Fear of G-d, yet you deny it, and you deny G-d, or at least a moral G-d.

The freedom you cherish is rooted in that religious heritage, and can not survive without a culture that is moral. Yet you scoff at at it.

A parasite.

Well..Christ is the cure alone not the pope..

And of course the Pope agrees, so be careful of false dichotomies -- it is not an issue of Christ vs the Pope. To endorse the one is to automatically endorse the other. The Theology of the Body is all about living a Christ-centered life.
