Urbandale posted:i am not saying that the CIA isnt an integral aspect of the ability of the US to project its power. but what i am saying is that there is a reason its using the very inexpensive (in manpower, due to presunk costs into NGOs in the country and domestic NGOs funding them, like the AFL-CIO's international committee) methods they are using and not the military option. the strongarm military doesnt work and hasnt for decades.
the US military works perfectly well if you know that its actually a massive money laundering scheme and drug corridor security force. Its goal is not to "conquer" countries or "win" "wars"

IRL, I have never heard the term 'culture of death' being used regarding homosexuality specifically, let alone as one of its major manifestations. And I have known pretty much the full spectrum of Catholics in my area, from Catholic Worker veterans in DC to a shut-in nonegenerian whose son became a priest of the SSPX. Even the most hard-line appear to treat it as a different issue. I can cede though that your experience may have varied, because in fact the Church is pretty "decentralized" in practice.
If we are talking about official lines, contrary to certain secondary sources out there, what your saying doesn't correspond to how the "culture of death" is used by the Vatican's formal documents. Here are the parts of Evangelium Vitae in which definitions of the phrase are provided:
This reality is characterized by the emergence of a culture which denies solidarity and in many cases takes the form of a veritable "culture of death". This culture is actively fostered by powerful cultural, economic and political currents which encourage an idea of society excessively concerned with efficiency. Looking at the situation from this point of view, it is possible to speak in a certain sense of a war of the powerful against the weak: a life which would require greater acceptance, love and care is considered useless, or held to be an intolerable burden, and is therefore rejected in one way or another. A person who, because of illness, handicap or, more simply, just by existing, compromises the well-being or life-style of those who are more favoured tends to be looked upon as an enemy to be resisted or eliminated. In this way a kind of "conspiracy against life" is unleashed....
Here we are faced with one of the more alarming symptoms of the "culture of death", which is advancing above all in prosperous societies, marked by an attitude of excessive preoccupation with efficiency and which sees the growing number of elderly and disabled people as intolerable and too burdensome. These people are very often isolated by their families and by society, which are organized almost exclusively on the basis of criteria of productive efficiency, according to which a hopelessly impaired life no longer has any value.
Note that the primary emphasis is not on sexuality at all, and what is listed as 'the most alarming symptom.'

yyeah, it's worse because the catholic church has actual power and control over people's beliefs and actions towards gay people.

this is a pretty standard theological move tho. making broad universalizing claims about how the weak are abused by the strong and material and economic pressure blah blah whatever, when the actual practice of the church is to promote anti-communist propaganda and opposition to anything that threatens the patriarch as the center of social life. anyway my interest in the theological presentation of the church's regressive and awful sexual politics is only academic much like exactly which laws are invoked to deny black people housing and livelihood. it will take whatever form is convenient for the moment.
