THE INTERSECTION | MADNESS & REALITY: Repression is not Morality: The Consequences of Sexual Suppression

I read this interesting article. It makes some good points but I think some mistakes have been made in that it puts the blame for sexual moral problems at sexual repression (which is true) but it makes the claim that its because of the Bible and the Qur'an and the great patristic monotheistic religions - Christianity, Islam, and Judaism and this I think is a mistake. The problem with sexual repression isn't ethic or moral standards. The problem is lack of them. I can't talk about Islam nor Judaism because I'm neither Muslim nor Jew. As a Christian, I blame the church for not teaching what God has said regarding sexuality. Sex was never meant to bring condemnation but joy and closeness. The only catch is that it has to be in a monogamous married relationship between a man and woman. Within these parameters we can truly be free and not repressed. If you want God's best you have to follow God and not your own way. We can trust Him.

CNN's Don Lemon Admits Being Victim of Sexual Abuse In Midst of Bishop Eddie Long Controversy - The Snob Blog - Danielle Belton's The Black Snob

This article brings up some important information. I didn't know that Don Lemon has had to deal with such a thing as being victimized as a child. This crime is extremely widespread. A lot og lives have been destroyed. The cause? Simple - Sin. People behaving and acting against the standard God has for us. I'm not talking about the victims...I'm talking about the perpetrators. The victims suffer. The truth is so does the perpetrator. There is only one answer out of this - Jesus. Jesus can heal both the abuser and the victim.

In a rare, revealing moment on television, CNN's Don Lemon admitted for the first time in public that he was a victim of sexual abuse as a child. While conducting a televised discussion with a group of Bishop Eddie Long supporters Saturday, Lemon recalled abuse that started when he was six-years-old. As reported on Richard Prince's Journal-ism's blog for the Maynard Institute, Lemon said he hid the secret of his abuse until he was 30 years old because of shame.
