Study on Homosexuality Labeled "Hate Speech"
churchmilitant.com
"Facebook is labeling a book linking the modern diet to homosexuality as hate speech.
Rita Strakosha, a clinical psychology professional in Albania, was banned from Facebook for six days for posting a link to her paper that theorizes modern diet and stress cause homosexuality. Strakosha wrote the paper as her master's thesis to earn her degree in clinical psychology at Albanian University and looked at hundreds of studies on sexuality and its causes.
Strakosha told Church Militant she posted a comment on someone's Facebook page, saying, 'You may find of interest this study which shows how stress and diet cause homosexuality' with a link to her study. She said Facebook messaged her, saying it considered her post 'hate speech' and banned it from her Facebook page. She was also notified that the ban would be permanent if she continued to post it...
She published a blog post showcasing some of the historical perspectives of homosexuality and the use of fasting to help prevent and stop homosexual desires.
A number of saints have spoken about the connection between gluttony and lust. They are linked by the cardinal virtue of temperance. The website Unam Sanctam Catholicam wrote a blog post 'On Gluttony and Lust' where they noted that 'Lust is nothing other than disordered, immoderate sexual desire. Because it deals with excess with regards to bodily pleasure, we may rightly understand out sexual appetite to be governed by the virtue of temperance.' They quoted the saints:
Saint Jerome said, 'The eating of flesh, and drinking of wine and fullness of the stomach is the seed-plot of lust' Saint John Climacus said, 'To be gluttonous, yet expect to be chaste, is to wish to extinguish fire with oil. It matters not whether the object of our desire is food or sexual pleasure: when we do not mortify our bodily instincts, we become immoderate people and fail in any struggle that requires temperance.'"
