Radical Heteronormative People

Ben Shapiro declares himself to be a radical heteronormative person:

Last week, actress Jada Pinkett Smith won an award from the Harvard Foundation for Intercultural and Race Relations. During her acceptance speech, she told women in the audience, “you can have it all — a loving man, devoted husband, loving children, a fabulous career … To my men, open your mind, open your eyes to new ideas.” Rather sweet, no? Not to the BGLTSA, which called for an apology from the organizers of the Cultural Rhythms show, explaining that Smith’s statements were “extremely heteronormative.” “Heteronormative,” for those who don’t speak the radical homosexual lingo, may be defined as the viewpoint that heterosexual relationships are normal, and others are not.

Basically, Jada Pinkett Smith (Will Smith’s wife) made a statement that implied that a man and a woman together are *gasp* normal. A group that represents bisexual, gay and lesbian people (BGLTSA) was offended that they weren’t considered normal, too, and lodged a complain with Harvard University.

The rise of the homosexual movement is a textbook example of societal amorality devolving into societal immorality. The rationale behind societal amorality is the myopic question: “How does my immoral behavior hurt you?” The answer is: It may not, in the short term. But when society sanctions your immoral behavior, that does hurt me. If millions of people accept the deviant as normal, that reshapes society in vastly destructive ways. Your moral self-destruction may have no consequences for me, but destruction of societal standards always has consequences.

The rest of Ben Shapiro’s article is excellent.

About Me

Michael, a sinner saved by grace, sharing what the good Lord has shared with me.

Solomon, in the book of Ecclesiastes, said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”

If you’re not living for the glory of God, then what you’re doing is meaningless, no matter what it is. Living for God gives life meaning, and enjoying a “chasing after the wind” is a gift from God. I’m doing what I can to enjoy this gift daily.

Got questions? I’m not surprised. If you have any questions about Chasing the Wind, you can email me at chasingthewind@outlook.com.
