September 12, 2012 — Although I hadn’t as yet read any headlines about it, I understood Father Dwight Longenecker to be pulling a taut string of satire on this “Hollywood director coming out for man/goat love.
And then I saw the actual article and realized that Longenecker hadn’t, perhaps, stepped far enough away from reality to make it truly satirical!
So, in the course of a week, we see advocacy for incest and as well as a sort of apologia for pedophilia suggesting that some people are “born with” the urge to destroy children’s lives, and so an amount of sympathy ought to be rendered their way.
