Can the Middle Be Sought in This Way?

From a tweet:

At the beginning of Dr. Tim Patitsas's truly amazing Chapter Five, "Only Priests Can Marry: The Reconciliation of Men and Women in Christ," in his book The Ethics of Beauty: Our concern in this chapter is the mystery of gender, an issue which has become increasingly vexed in our society. A new way of considering gender difference is proposed here which borrows [and transcends] elements from both the 'left-wing' insistence that the genders are interchangeable, and the 'right-wing' assertion that the genders are complementary. This new way is chiasm, wherein men and women, in embracing the cross of Christ within their biologically given genders, come to symbolize each other's vocation while experiencing the transfiguration of their own" (p. 297).


I don't think so. Where is the warrant in Scripture or Tradition for such an argument?

Gotta Maintain That SJW Cred

CNA: New Vatican document says gender theory is ‘cultural and ideological revolution’

“Indeed, it cannot be denied that through the centuries forms of unjust discrimination have been a sad fact of history and have also had an influence within the Church. This has brought a certain rigid status quo, delaying the necessary and progressive inculturation of the truth of Jesus’ proclamation of the equal dignity of men and women, and has provoked accusations of a sort of masculinist mentality, veiled to a greater or lesser degree by religious motives.”

More BS from TED


Post by TED.

Rainbow Looms and the cheap knock-offs appear to be a popular toy for elementary school children; one of my nieces has one. Today I found a 3rd grade class in which the boys were also playing with the looms to make bracelets. "Hm." Such trends come and go, though one might argue that the appeal of making such things with their own hands does not completely disappear even in Uhmerican girls. Could the boys be learning something else instead. The gender reconstructionists would object to any such redirection of boys towards more masculine pursuits.

Radical reconstruction in Spain

Carey Roberts, Inane in Spain: The Gender Agenda Forges Ahead (via The Spearhead)

Did Spain have a chance once Franco handed power over to Juan Carlos? Could this moral and spiritual disaster have been mitigated if power had been decentralized? Down with Zapatero. 2012 can't come soon enough, but who will replace him? I don't think the Socialists (PSOE) have been discredited yet, and the leftists are back with a vengeance?
