Kiki and Herb encourage us to crucify Jesus. When such a claim is made and when homosexual activity is consequently condoned, or when civil legislation is introduced to protect behavior to which no one has any conceivable right, neither the Church nor society at large should be surprised when other distorted notions and practices gain ground, and irrational and violent reactions increase emphasis mine.
What, then, are homosexual persons to do who seek to follow the Lord? That Cross, for the believer, is a fruitful sacrifice since from that death come life and redemption. Ratzinger wants homosexuals to conspire with Rome and crucify our desires. Traditional gay theology is a helpful resource for resurrecting Jesus, for giving Jesus a new, gayer life style.
The Gospel of Matthew is one source of the Christian mythos. It is in this text that we discover a spirituality of gay identification. The black head covering is worn by a group of women witnessing three men entering Jerusalem second image below. Jesus, too, is clothed in a simple black head covering. The Greek grammar of Matthew 1 see below links Mary and the Spirit to each other and a tradition of maternal rebellion and survival.
Matthew defines the Spirit in and through Mary, described in and through a tradition of maternal rebellion and survival. In Jesus Messiah, gay identification bursts into the world as a messianic practice or politics. The ek of Matthew also connects Mary and Jesus, and so links Jesus to a tradition of maternal rebellion and survival.
Verse 16 does not read like this: Joseph the father of Jesus by Mary. It reads like this: Joseph is the man or husband of Mary, of whom is Jesus. The disruption of the typical formula begets unexpected results. The name of her son, Jesus, follows her name. In this way, Matthew links the messianic role to the maternal role. The maternal role in Matthew 1 is quite scandalous. When his mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, but before they lived together , she was found to be with child from [ ek ] the Holy Spirit.
