DR. HOLSINGER’S "SIN" AND THE NEW PHARISEES

President Bush’s nominee for U.S. Surgeon General, Dr. James Holsinger of Kentucky, is being viciously assailed by homosexual activist groups and their allies, like the Washington Post, because he states the truth about homosexual behavior.

Dr. Holsinger is an active layman in the United Methodist Church. (Hardly one of those right wing fundamentalists the Post loves to insult.) He is being pilloried for presenting an honest view of the consequences of homosexual behavior. In a 1991 report to a United Methodist committee, Dr. Holsinger, who holds both an M.D. and a Ph.D. in anatomy and physiology, wrote that homosexual practices were physically dangerous and unnatural.

Now, what is wrong with that statement? Need we go into a detailed anatomy lesson on the structure of the anus and rectum and their suitability for sexual intercourse? Surely no intellectually honest—scientifically informed—person would argue with Dr. Holsinger’s conclusion.

Now, if the anti-Holsinger activists, their congressional sympathizers and the Washington Post editors want to be honest, they should simply say, “Sound scientific observations about homosexual behavior are incompatible with our desired social and political outcomes, so we therefore choose to ignore them and silence others who wish to comment on them.” That would be honest.

Instead, as I have said and written before, irrational activists willingly surrender the truth in pursuit of their goals, which they consider to be more important than the truth.

What we now have is a new breed of Pharisees—hypocrites who say one thing and practice another. While they’re busy assailing George Bush and the Republicans for ignoring what they allege are scientific facts on climate change and evolution, they condemn Dr. Holsinger and his sponsors for factually stating what is scientifically accurate.

It’s supremely ironic when these same opponents challenge me during a debate by saying something like There you go again, Reverend, asserting moral absolutes. There’s no such thing as a moral absolute! I love it when they say it because I have my rehearsed comeback, “Are you absolutely certain of that?”

It’s funny how absolute people can be about what they assert to be non-absolutes! Let us remember those oft repeated thunderous denunciations by Christ Himself, “Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!”
