Michael Pakaluk: The Ethics of Irrationally Hating Faggots

Some people enter graduate level philosophy programs in order to grow, to intellectually explore new ideas, new concepts, and new ways of being. Others enter graduate level philosophy programs in order to gain both knowledge and practice at rationally defending their own pre-conceived notions, preserved and protected since their infancy.

Michael Pakaluk, Ph.D., Harvard University took a third path: He neither grew as a person nor learned how to rationally argue. Instead, he went to Harvard, received his Ph. D., and then wrote Children in the custody of same-sex couples in parochial schools. Because, well, Michael Pakaluk, Ph.D., Harvard University, is a homophobic, ignorant bigot. I say "homophobic" because, well, he really fucking hates faggots. I say "ignorant" because, well, he never learned how to use a dictionary. And I say "fuckheaded" because he is a fucking fuckhead.

Let us begin.

The question arises of whether children in the custody of (one cannot say, “children of”) same-sex couples should be admitted to Catholic parochial schools.

Alright, Michael "shithead" Pakaluk, let's teach you how words work. The word "of" has 17 definitions. The second definition is "used to indicate derivation, origin, or source", which we assume is the "of" which cannot be applied to the children OF same-sex couples because, as Michael learned at Harvard, a same-sex couple is composed of either two people with "boy parts" and two people with "girl parts". Since a child can only originate in a couple with both boy parts and girl parts, a same-sex couple cannot "make" a baby. And since "of" only means "produced by"...

Oh, wait, no; "of" means 17 fucking things, one of which is "used to indicate possession, connection, or association". Well fuck my ass and call me Jesus Christ, the son of God, there IS a definition of "of" applicable to the children of same-sex couples; the "of" of possession! Well, that solves that problem. I guess children can be of a same-sex couple, you fucking moron.

Seriously, how the fuck did you get a Ph. D in philosophy from Harvard and never learn what "of" means?
My own son in the first grade in a Boston Archdiocesan parochial school had a classmate who was being raised by his father and another man.

Let's think about this one for a moment. Apparently, the terms "father" and "mother" mean only "biological father" and "biological mother". So, a child adopted by a heterosexual couple cannot refer to its adoptive parents as "father" and "mother"? Well, if you say so, Michael...
The first involves the inevitability of scandal. It was inevitable that either the teacher, or some parent, would deal with the two men in such a way as implicitly to teach my son, or other children in the class, that there is nothing wrong with same-sex relationships.

So, for Michael Pakaluk, "scandal" results from not being hateful bigots towards persons who maintain different value systems.
Someone might object that, no, what the teacher or parents would teach is to “love the sinner while hating the sin.” I say in reply that this objector is presupposing that the young children involved have already been taught to recognize and “hate” the sin, which is what is at issue. Also, I reject the idea that an appropriate task for a 6-year-old might be learning how to “love the sinner but hate the sin” in a matter involving both immediate familial affections and sexual disorder.

So, what you are saying is that Catholics need to start teaching their children to hate sooner, that children need learn how to quickly and carefully discern objects of hate? Well, if you are having trouble with teaching hate I assume the Klan would be more than willing to help out. Or maybe you could have a Pope Pius XII day where we teach children that it's best to not condemn the wholesale slaughter of millions of Jews, because "fuck the jews".

Also, it's really nice how he snuck that "sexual disorder" line right into the assholes of our minds after lubing us up with his stupid.
All of this is not even to touch upon the question of whether teachers and parents will distort how they talk about parents and family life, out of a misguided sense of “love.”

Wow. "misguided sense of 'love'"? So, tolerance, acceptance, and support are not loving acts? Alright, well then I would be quite interested to know how you show your "love" for your wife.

My bet is that Michael Pakaluk shows his "love" for his wife in very short, unfulfilling bursts.
I saw this beginning to happen in my son’s school: not wishing to offend, teacher and parents would refer to the two men as the “parents” of that boy, even though only one was the father.

Jesus cock-shitting Christ, Michael; buy a god damned dictionary.
Parent:
1. a father or a mother.
2. an ancestor, precursor, or progenitor.
3. a source, origin, or cause.
4. a protector or guardian.
5. Biology . any organism that produces or generates another.
6. Physics . the first nuclide in a radioactive series.

"Parent" means "Protector or Guardian", Michael. Protector or Guardian. Words, Michael. Dictionaries, Michael. Come on, shithead, you went to Harvard; you ought to know how to use a fucking dictionary.
A mother or father may volunteer to read to the class or chaperone for a class trip. If the homosexual parent does so, what guarantee would I have that he would not be an advocate for his lifestyle, implicitly if not explicitly?

Wait. So, if heterosexual parents volunteer to chaperone a class trip to the local ball pit, and watch their children sink into a mass of balls, roll in the balls, stroke the balls, bury their faces in the balls, that is an implicit or explicit advocacy for heterosexuality?

And further, your worry is that if a homosexual reads to Catholic children it may turn the children gay? Well, it's a good thing that there are not homosexual Catholic priests. Because, I mean, if a homosexual Catholic Priest ever read to children then they could teach children homosexuality. But it's a good thing that no Catholic priests are homosexuals...

OH SHIT!
The same-sex couple was interestingly activist in hosting pizza parties, sponsoring tables at fundraisers, and volunteering when parental help was needed.

What a couple of selfish fucking faggots, right Michael? Offering their time and effort to help raise their children? God, what assholes.
When I complained to the principal, she claimed that the school would never divulge such information, as it was “confidential” and a matter of “privacy.”

What a bitch! I totally agree with Michael that homosexuals ought to identify themselves in some way. Perhaps they could wear stars on their clothing with the word "homosexual" in the middle. Yeah, badges ought to do it. And then we could form these "camps", where we could "concentrate" the homosexuals.

Man, I can't believe no one else ever thought of doing that.

The third reason is that it seemed a real danger that the boy being raised by the same-sex couple would bring to school something obscene or pornographic.

Yes, Michael Pakaluk, homosexual parents give their children pornography. Over the cribs of their adopted children homosexual couples hang mobiles of dongs, wangs, and testicles. The first books read to homosexual children are not Dr. Seuss, but rather excerpts from the Dr. Fuck-Cock's Jizz-testicle Orgynarium series. And I believe we have a clip here:

"See Spot Run. Run, Spot, Run! Lube, Spot, Lube! Bend over, Spot, Bend Over. Take that hot, throbbing cock in your asshole, Spot! Fuck, Spot, fuck! Work it, Spot, Work it. Lube, Spot, Lube! Oh god, Spot, Oh god. Yeah, Take it, Spot, Take it. You're a bitch, Spot. Oh yeah, all the way, Spot. Oh take that fucking cock, Spot, take that fucking rock-hard cock in your tight little fucking asshole. Oh, yes, Spot, yes, oh goooooooooooodd, Spot. Take it in the face, Spot, turn your fucking face towards that fucking dick, Spot, you little fucking whore, Spot.

Lick it up, Spot.

Lick it up."
When I raised these and similar concerns with the pastor, he replied that the school’s mission was to serve the child of the same-sex couple. I said that I believed that the Church indeed had such a mission, but that this mission conflicted with the mission to educate my son well.

Michael Pakaluk raises a good point: How will his children learn to be hateful, intolerant bigots within a school system which teaches tolerance, compassion, and love? Again, I suggest consulting the Klan for help.
Someone might wonder where the line should be drawn if children raised by same-sex couples are excluded from parochial schools. What about children raised by divorced, contracepting, or cohabiting couples?

Well--what would be the problem in requiring that if parents wish to enroll their children in a Catholic school, they must agree to abide by basic principles of morality?

First of all, I did not know that "contracepting" was a word. Second of all, I did not know that contraception was immoral. Third of all, if we are going to required that children enrolled in Catholic school be subject to the moral code of the Bible then, well, Leviticus. Let me know when you get to 25:44-46.

44Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.
45Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.
46And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with rigour.

Yeah, I always find it best to take my morality from books which condone slavery, too.
It should be said that all of my practical concerns involve young children, who should be innocent of sexual matters and whose familial affections are still being formed. Nothing I have said would count against admitting children raised by same-sex couples into high school, and probably not middle school.

OOOH, ok. So once kids get to high school they can be exposed to the cock-sucking faggot spawn of dick-sucking homorents? Well then I guess you aren't a close-minded, unread, uninformed, delusional, self-aggrandizing homophobe after all.
Michael Pakaluk is Professor of Philosophy at the Institute for the Psychological Sciences in Arlington, VA, where he teaches courses on ethics and the philosophy of marriage and the family. He formerly taught at Clark University, in Worcester, and has been a Visiting Scholar at Harvard University.

It also ought to be mentioned that Pakaluk's work focuses upon Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, a book he has apparently never read:
If activities are, as we said, what gives life its character, no happy man can become miserable; for he will never do the acts that are hateful and mean. For the man who is truly good and wise, we think, bears all the chances life becomingly and always makes the best of circumstances, as a good general makes the best military use of the army at his command and a good shoemaker makes the best shoes out of the hides that are given him; and so with all other craftsmen.
- Nicomachean Ethics, Book 1.

It's alright, Michael Pakaluck, the Nichomachean Ethics is really long. So I can understand that your work would focus upon it but you'd never read halfway through Book 1. Maybe one day you'll get around to reading that thing about which you have written multiple books.

Harvard University: We gave Michael Pakaluk a Ph. D.

"Well, it's a good thing that there are not homosexual Catholic priests, no Catholic priests who fuck little boys. Because, I mean, if they ever read to children then they could teach children homosexuality, or pedophilia. But it's a good thing that no Catholic priests are homosexuals or pedophiles..."

Just wanna note that gay priest does not equal pedo-priest.
People seem to be insistent on suggesting the priests rape little boys because they are gay, or because they can't have sex with teh ladies. NO! Hell NO!
Pedophiles become priests because they will have access to and authority over little boys to rape. Circumstances do not make them pedophiles, the circumstances attract pedophiles.
A gay priest would not rape a child. A pedophile priest would. And a priest who rapes a boy, is not gay, still a pedophile. Being gay is seeking an adult same sex partner. Being a pedophile is raping children. I really do not understand how people insist on lumping them together.

Andrew said...

-J-, I was mostly ranting at the news media.
I realize you know the difference. but the pairing of gay and pedophilia made me wanna rant.

Andrew said...

Oh fun, Pakuluk is an evangelical convert to Catholicism and a member of Opus Dei!

_J_ said...

That was poor word order on my part.

I do not think homosexual and pedophile are the same thing, but I did fail to articulate the distinction and my word order did kind of imply a similarity.

I apologize.

It is not an excuse, but Pakaluk, in his writing, seems to convolute homosexuality and pedophilia, so in sarcastically replying to his points I maintained the similarity. That was my mistake, and it is regretable.

_J_ said...

Lines which make reference to pedophilia have been removed.

Again, I apologize.

Andrew said...

if only it were so easy to get rid of pedophilia...
I wonder if Michael Pakaluk will google himself and read this....

Caleb said...

Maybe it was a correspondence Ph.D. program. Does Harvard have those?

Roscoe said...

... I suspect there's probably more a connection between pedophiles going into the priesthood and the church classicly being a place of sanctuary than it being ripe for easy pickin's...


Though.. I'd agree, the circumstances do attract pedophiles, not vice versa.
