In January of 1998, a 39 year-old Catholic by the name of Alfredo Ormando knelt down as if to pray in the deserted Vatican piazza and proceeded to douse his clothing with a flammable fluid, making it nearly impossible for police to extinguish the flames which ultimately took his life several days later. Opportunistic fanatics and other anti-catholic pundits blamed the death on JPII and now Pope Benedict along with the Catholic church for causing despair among those like Mr. Ormando who suffer from SSAD. Regardless of the conflicting reports on what eventually caused this poor man to take his own life (a protest on the Church’s doctrine on SSAD vs. stressed family relations), the facts remain that it’s the life events which are responsible for triggering symptoms of depression, but it’s the depression which goes untreated that ultimately causes a suicide; consequently, credible and well designed studies have found suicide attempts among “homosexuals” were three to six times greater than that of the general population.

While there have been wins by pro-”gay” activist manipulating and intimidating society into embracing a “gay” culture, the pseudo-science activists have failed time and again in their pursuit of legitimate scientific data to back their hopes of SSA being the result of a genetically predetermined condition. A new 2008 study of twins and SSA (latest and largest study of it’s kind) enrolled over 9000 individuals with the hope of establishing proof that SSA is a genetically driven condition. In short, it failed to do so, instead re-affirmed other studies of it’s kind which show genetic effects on SSA are minor, while other very individualist factors predominate.

Not that it should even matter if one is born with a condition or not, as there are children born with undesirable and debilitating physical disabilities every day, and these physically impaired children are not being rejected for who they are (they are not their disability) , nor are they left to the vices of their own disabilities due to fears of damaging their self-esteem, but they are treated with sound evidence based medicine specifically because they have value and are loved. So it is the hope of parents that their children may not only love, but be loved, and grow to live up to their potential with the hope of living productive and prosperous lives. Those suffering from SSAD should have the same opportunity to be all that God created them to be, but our cowardly and sick culture denies them of healing, choosing instead to look the other way and say nothing rather than stand up to the scorn of the militant activists of the world who use intimidation and slander (vs. science and evidence base medicine) to push their intolerant agenda through out the world. It’s these same fascists who condemn and blame the Catholic Church of intolerance and hate, that sit in judgment of anyone who has the guts to work for change and wholeness in their lives.

Because sexuality forms an integral part of our personality, it makes sense that some of those who suffer from a wounded sense of sexual identity would believe sexual orientation is tied to something significantly more than just to the sexual act itself. It’s important to remember many people within the “gay” community feel that the only place they’ve ever been fully accepted, is within the “gay” community, not only because the outside world condemns homosexuality, but because a significant part of the outside world failed to accept them and their personality even before they had any sort of homosexual feelings - so, accepting one part of the person without accepting the sexuality part , through their eyes, is not possible. I think a good example on how I may see the person and the homosexual acts as separate or compartmentalized, like the sin and the sinner; whereas, those with SSAD see “gayness” as more homogenized into their being - the sin and the sinner are one - diabolically brilliant strategy to be sure.

The tragedy behind the tragedy of Alfredo Ormando’s suicide is that 10 years later, even in death, the exploitation of this tormented man continues to perpetuate the hateful and dangerous pro-gay/anti-catholic agenda that contributed to his violent death in the first place. Shame to all  (APA, AMA, politicians, etc…) of those who know what they do, but do or say nothing out of fear of reprisal, apathy and personal agendas- there’s plenty blood shed and blame to be shared by all.
