Psychobabble is a word, an expression ,whose use can be attributed to journalist Richard Dean Rosen who publicly used it in 1977. It refers to the media's use of words and expressions like, “dysfunctional family,” “type ‘A’ personality, “up-tight” or “co-dependent;” words deriving their origin in the field of psychology and subsequently have made their way into our common everyday usage.
The word “psychobabble” is often used by someone who believes the world of psychology to be somewhat of a non-scientific head-trip with bizarre terminology that makes no sense to the average person unless he has wrapped his brain about the high minded lofty notion of nonsensical realities. Rosen however, specifically implicated that the “babbling,” was more like that of a baby who just learning a new language learns a new word and then applies it to everything. He intended to infer that psychology and psychological jargon is over-used and perhaps a bit overrated, often even totally irrelevant to how it happened to be used in a particular instance and misapplied.
Psychology, is based on observation, with interpretation of course; and for those who practice it’s guiding principles in their daily lives, (depending of course on which aspect or interpretation they adhere to, (be it Jung or Freud or someone else, and how much to each they personally ascribe “wisdom,”) it is considered (by them) to be good sound logical understanding of life and the human experience. It is the source of their understanding and guide for their human reasoning, a way of perceiving and living life. Full of principles and insights into the inner workings of the human mind, a person's "worldview" and how they view the world and themselves, it is almost like a religion.
Psychology deals with mental processes. It’s the way a person thinks about themselves in relation to the world and other people. It’s a philosophy of how to build “healthy” relationships, particularly in family, but not excluding managing business, organizing educational curriculum and standards, parenting children, basically viewing the world. The word itself is derived from the Greek word 'psyche' meaning breath, spirit, or soul, more evidence that true "psychology" is "spiritual" and about understanding who you are. A person into psychology will most likely "need" psychotherapy, which is the application of psychology in it’s various forms. This therapy in all it's forms is what nurtures your understanding of that soul or spirit, the person that you are or can become, give you a "healthy" identity...(if is it Id?) This of course because psychology helps you understand YOU better, instructs YOU in what YOU say and do and don't do unto others and what YOU should and should not believe.
It is all about YOU.
Unfortunately as enamored with thoughts of ourselves as we all are, the whole field of psychology is built on the false premise of self and self discovery being the most important think in life the universe and everything. This can be a problem for Christians, who, not unlike people in psychotherapy know very much they are spiritual beings souls and psyches, feeling hopeless, helpless, like their life is a wreck and feeling like they need salvation from the things too difficult to bear. Christians have a great savior than themselves, God.
Even if a particular branch of psychology is dubbed “spiritual” in nature it is often entwined like a weed in the occult, in fact, much of psychology has deep roots l in realms of the occult and the problem is that one may realize it’s origin until it’s too late.
In the realm of psychology, one begins with the understanding they have a problem and need help, and they get help from a psychologist, one who has studied and now knows how the mind works. From there, the problem is identified and dealt with, and then one psychological understanding is built on top of another until a person can finally look back over their lives and understand everything about themselves and all the hows and whys of who they are and the person they have become. They identify who is and who is not to blame for them being the way they are and learn new truths on which to base their lives if their consellors do not happen to be Christian, but are atheists.
And is such a person were to be Christian, to ascribe to a belief in God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, they would most likely be expected to refrain from talking about "sin" or pointing the ailing one to Christ as the redeemer or the Savior, or the wisdom of the Bible as holding the answer to everything that ails both genders of the human species, man and woman. Such a thing as this is, for the humanly educated mind, often far too simplistic. Most counselors of psychology have been duly trained by atheists, and as graduates of the educational ladder, they know earily man's ideas of God are but "a myth" and with a more realistic view of life, the universe and everything, know that their work helps humanity evolve into the next level of awareness... that they are the masters of their own realities, maybe even God, certainly not sinners being convicted of any guilt or shame.
The wisdom and knowledge that feeds the soul of man in “psychology” is very different from the wisdom and knowledge of God. It is even a bit like the situation that took place at the Tower of Babel long ago. (Genesis 11:1-11)
The Tower of Babel is, just a story right? Who on earth reads such tales, tales like the story of the Tower of Babel? Who on earth even thinks that they are true?
Is it true?
The Tower of Babel in the Bible, was said to be built by Nimrod and Nimrod, we learn in various sources of history that Nimrod was a real person, and a king, a king in a place now considered to be modern day Iraq. The Tower of Babel was an ancient “tower” being built within the city wall no doubt a common practice in that time period, and the bible tells us that the building of this mighty "tower to the heavens" was a combined effort of all the peoples of the earth . It took place under the direction of Nimrod, King of Babylon in the city of Babel when he ruled, which would have been around 3400 BC.
Babel was a real tower, built with bricks that the people made with their own hands. These bricks were then stuck together using slime for mortar as they built for themselves first a city then a tower that reached up to the sky. Their goal was heaven, and they were doing it without God, for they had their own gods they created for themselves to worship; and they did, even unto the total disrespect of the God who gave man life in the beginning. Leaving God's basic instructions behind them they made their own and yet, they still wanted heaven, or at least access to heaven from the earth. They believed that if they worked together, (and they could work together well because they all spoke one language and understood one another perfectly,) they could build a tower to the sky.
But God, being God, (who knows and sees all things,) saw what they were doing and confounded them by changing their languages and thus putting an end to all their work. Unable to make sense of one anothers babbling talk, not understanding one anther's words, they could no longer cooperate and the peoples were dispersed, each going out to find some habitable place somewhere else.
Their dream was shattered. The work was ended and the Tower was left incomplete and abandoned, at least until more recent days.
The goal of building such a tower then, as it is today, is reaching heaven... so that man, any man, every man, perhaps even one single man can sit over all the earth, over all that is called God and proclaim himself to be God, even if he is not. Ruler over land sea and sky, knowing all there is to know and more, the creature will then marvel at the works of his own hands, and make his own laws regarding what is good and what is right. He will deliver justice as his own justice will see fit, and do good deeds to suit his own perceptions and desires, to get him what he wants and think he needs. The tower of Babel, if it were to be built today, would be built on man's own foundation, and have nothing whatsoever to do with the true and living God, creator and sustainer of all the heavens and the Earth.
Some think that such things are but a myth of man's imagination, but there was in Babylon an ancient ziggurat that fits such a strange and curious description. It is mentioned in the writings of Nebucanezzar, and named also by the Greek historian Herodotus. It is known as "Etemenanki,” a Sumarian name which means, “house of the foundation of heaven on earth.” (Some references to Etemenanki say, “the house foundation of sky and earth” or “"The temple of the creation of heaven and earth.") Some believe remnants of it have been discovered.
The annuls of the Assyrian King Sennacherib mention such a temple as well. He claims he and his armies destroyed such a temple in Babylon in 689 BCE. Alexander the great is said to have ordered it’s rebuilding in 331 BC, but this never happened. A man named Antiochus however, is said to have finally rebuilt it, but he also is said to have ordered that it be destroyed by elephants, and until recent years, there in the rubble, babble lay; at least until the German explorer and archeologist Robert Johann Koldewey claimed to have found the ruins of Etemenanki when he discovered the ruins of the ancient city of Babylon in Iraq in 1913.
In the Bible story of the Tower of Babel, God saw this temple that the people had built, this tower to heaven and He knew that once this was complete, nothing would be restrained from man he would do whatever it was that he imagines himself to do. God confounded their language, the people dispersed and then God called Abram out of Ur of the Chaldees.
Today we have psychology experts to do more than connect us in language, but to connect the inner workings of our minds. We have psychology giants like Joseph Alder, Sigmund Freud, Ray Rosenman, Abraham Maslow, Carl Jung, Erich Fromm and others who are responsible for coining certain terms and phrases we see in common use, like: “defense mechanism,” “inner child,” “ego,” “introvert,” “type “A” personality” or something called the “collective consciousness of humanity. ”
Such words seem like babble to some, "psychobabble" in fact, but to others it is the very things that will help us better understand ourselves and relate to one another. Current teachings from many a university teaches that these psychologists are wise men that know what they were talking about and are even quite devoted to the fountains of human wisdom that babble forth from their lips as they speak, and write and teach the rest of us their wisdom. While they babel, some still Bible.
Psychology as a discipline, considered to be a type of science, and "it is believed to embrace all aspects of the human experience — from the functions of the brain to the actions of nations, from child development to care for the aged.” (American Psychological Association definition of psychology.) There is nothing in the human experience to which it cannot be applied and by psychology’s own definition, this would include spiritual experiences as well.
But there are two very distinct and divergent fonts of "wisdom." There is human wisdom that is earthly and formulated by men who believe they are so very smart, in control of everything, even on their way to becomming a god, and then there is the wisdom from above, the wisdom of Almighty God. A thirsty soul should be thoughtful about which brook they drink from and what water is their source. One babbling brook give life only in this world, and one gives living water that actually revives the soul.
Like fresh flowing living water, Jesus’ words are true, and they come from a source that can be trusted. Jesus’ words are heavenly derived and they flow from the eternal rock, the solid foundation put in place on earth by God. Christians know God's word is the true source of life, words that like rain from heaven fall to earth on parched dry lifeless ground.And they do not return void.
But then again, to some, who are merely saturated with their own ideas, giving heed to the wisdom which originates from the earth, the falling rain from heaven is undesirable. It even ruins all their work.
To them such wisdom of God, even stories of the tower of Babel, is merely myth, or just for imaginative children who have yet to be adulterated, indoctrinated by the wisdom of world..
Pilates
Pilates, (pronounced, puh-LAH-teez) is a currently popular method of exercise that has many striking similarities to Yoga. It is named after it’s German born developer, now American, Joseph Hubertus Pilates (1880 - 1967) who originally called his method the art of “contrology” because he said it uses the mind to control the muscles.
Pilates is a sort of combination of calisthenics, controlled breathing and yoga. (Calisthenics are exercises performed without weights or other equipment like jumping jacks and push-ups.)
There are three types of Pilates, authentic Pilates, Contemporary Pilates and Modern Pilates. There is even a form called Yogalates too.

It Feels Good To Be Out Of The Rain
“Out of the Rain” is part of the lyrics to a song by a band called America. The song is called A Horse With No Name. The song, sung by Dan Peek, was a huge radio hit in the 70’s and at the time there was a lot of speculation about the meaning of the song. The big question was what was the meaning of the "horse" Some people thought it was code for some sort of drug, mainly heroine. Others thought the meaning was some reference to religion. It really didn;t matter what the horse was or wasn't; the song was a hit.
The song goes, "Well, I've been through the desert on a horse with know name, It felt good to be out of the rain. In the desert you can remember your name, cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain…La, la ... etc.”
In January 2006, Peek, in an interview with Mike Rimmer, talked about how the band became one of the most successful of the period and how, despite all the success and fame, life for the band, and for Peek in particular, was not well.
Dan Peek told Rimmer, “I had bought into the whole materialistic consumer-oriented advertising age theory that if you just have the right car and the right clothes and the right hairstyle and the right shoes, then you would be happy and fulfilled. We were able to attain all of that stuff at a very early age because we were just miraculously and incredibly fortunate. Things just clicked. We had all the success; the hit records and the fame and the material things that came along with it. I think probably the rudest shock of all was to just wake up and think, 'My goodness. I'm empty!' I was still searching for some type of peace and some type of meaning to my life after we ended up with walls covered in gold and platinum albums and the accolades and the praise of our peers and the fans. You just still felt this nagging emptiness. It was very, very frightening."
Peek however has since become a Christian. In the same interview, talking about his conversion, Peek said, "I finally found out that all of this stuff - the fame, the success, the glory, the records, the accolades - had left me totally empty. So I turned to Christ. I turned to Jesus as Lord and Savior. THAT was the transformation that I had been looking for my whole life.”

Transpersonal Psychology
Charles Tart, born in 1937, is known as one of the founders of a branch of psychology called Transpersonal Psychology and has been involved in “Consciousness Studies” at several state universities as well as the faculty Institute of Noetic Sciences” in California. (Noetic Science is a science exploring the frontiers of consciousness) Tart is considered by some, to be one of the foremost researchers on “states of consciousness.” He studies psychic abilities, (E.S.P.) mystical states of awareness, mind-matter interaction phenomena, martial arts, and out of the body experiences.(O.B.E.)
His home page notes that he has been “involved with research and theory in the fields of Hypnosis, Psychology, Transpersonal Psychology, Parapsychology, Consciousness and Mindfulness since 1963.” In addition to his research, he has authored several books and articles, some which have been published in “prestigious scientific journals such as Science and Nature.” Tart also says his primary goal is to” build bridges between the scientific and spiritual communities and to help bring about a refinement and integration of Western and Eastern approaches for knowing the world and for personal and social growth.”
Having watched him on you tube and visited his blog, I would say he is a nice man, enthusiastic and inquisitive too, a man looking for answers to the ultimate questions of life in things that are of interest to him, like how the mind works, and altered states of consciousness , E.S.P. and O.B.E. He is so enthusiastic about experimenting with the occult and psycodelic drugs that he even publically endorses more experimentation and even advocates their "disciplined use." Curiously enough, what Tart really seems to want to know is more than how the mind works,(though he obviously has formulated a lot of ideas about this in his own mind.) What Tart really wants to do is "survive" and he thinks occult spirituality mixed with "science" will assist him in finding answers.
According to the Ensalen Center where Tart teaches in conferences on the subject of "Surviving Bodily Death," "From Tart’s perspective, science is hallmarked by the unwavering commitment to the truth regardless of preference, while Buddhism is interested in what is useful for ending suffering and attaining enlightenment. Therein lies the nobility of the objective scientific quest to empirically investigate the survival of bodily death."
Tart is currently working in collaboration with other scientists from universities all over the world discussing and researching trans personal psychology, a new branch of science that he hopes will give humanity the answer to the question of whether we (humans) survive bodily death in some form. He hosts a journal, The Archives of Scientists Transcendent Experiences (TASTE) where other scientists interested in the spiritual can contribute information regarding spiritual experiences they themselves have had, but you have to be a "scientist" to contribute to their scintific study of transpersonal psychology. .
In the study of what happens after death, scientific knowledge, if it is truely scientific should include both descriptions of what happens when one dies and and explanations of why it happens. Science is scince because the scientific method is reliable and repeatable, but the problem with testing death is that it is appoint once for man to die, death, it's not something that can be repeated and retested. In fact, it is very rare that one will die and be raised again to life.
This has been done only one time in human history... Jesus Christ rose from the dead. He is the answer.
Miraculously this event of JEsus's death and resurrection was forth-told in writing before it ever happened and in fact is still something may people believe and celebrate even yet today. My advice to people like Tart who dabble in darkness, who are toying with death, is repent of your occult practices, call on the name of Jesus and "TASTE and see, that the Lord is good."... (Psalm 34:8 ) Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ ans you will be saved! REmember, God and the things of God are very good, in fact, sweet, "sweeter than honey and the honey comb." ( Psalm 19:10)
Our human journey here on earth in this precious life we have been given is simply justice being served and grace being given. We will die. But by believing God and receiving Christ as savior, we will live, forever... yes, like Jesus we will be raised from death to life and be invited to return to God and live again in the heavenly realms. not because we know all there is to know, not because we are so smart and hold degrees and not because of anything we could do or give to God who gave us lie, but simply because we heard the truth and we believed.
Blessed is the man who has faith in Him. (Psalm 34:8 )

Kinsey
The following is rated " M "by me... because I intend it to be for Mature audiences only. It is written by an adult for an adult audience, and discusses the work of sexologist, Alfred Kinsey from a historical perspective. If you are an adolescent, please consult your mom or dad before reading this page and know that Mr. Alfred Kinsey was a very troubled, although famous, man.
Alfred Kinsey, (1894-1956) was at first a zoologist with a keen interest in insects, particularly wasps, but at the end of his life he was most notably a very famous "sex expert." It cannot go unoticed that there is much debate as to if he was an expert or a pervert, and to help one look at the debate about this more clearly, here is provided a somewhat short rendering of Kinsey's historic tale.
Alfred Kinsey's name and reputation first got widespread media coverage in 1948, when his book, Sexual Behavior in the Human Male was put into print. (It sold more than 200,000 copies the first month after tpublication.) A few years later in 1953, Kinsey published a sequel that was titled, Sexual Behavior in the Human Female. This too became a "National Bestseller," and the name Kinsey was almost a household word. He became world reknown for his research and his published fndings were intended to give the world a whole new perspective on human sexuality.
The Kinsey Report, as his works became called, served to change the way people viewed sex and sexuality, even family life. His scientifically collected data was published in order to shed some light on thing before thought to have been perverse or taboo. Research showed that at least 10% percent of the male population was exclusively homosexual, concluding for Kinsey that such behavor was not at all "abnormal" for men,as society previously thought. Not only that, but Kiinsey's research showed that, 46% of men in his studies responded sexually to both women and men, thus demonstrating that many hedrosexual men, "normall" had "homosexual tendencies."
Regarding marriage and family life, Kinsey stressed in his reports that multiple partners during marriage was normal. Research showed that 50% of men had extramarital affairs, as did 26 % of women. For all his research into the psyche and behavior of human sexuality and the influence it had on American families, Kinsey himself had become known as, "the Father of the sexual revolution."
Kinsey was an atheist who believed the research of Darwin and his theory and therefore took the view that man was simply a higher order animal. Being nothing more than an animal, he believed that human sexuality was really, simply a matter of doing what comes naturally, like it does with the animals. Kinsey believed that there were social taboos on certain sexual activities, not because they were "immoral," or harmful to other human beings, but because people were religiously superstitious. He believed peple were afraid of their own sexuality, and he even used the term, "sexually repressed"… (a Sigmund Freud invented term, ) to describe people who were “not properly in touch” with their sexuality.
So according to Kinsey, Americans were just simply too uptight, so he advocated that people be more open about sex and feel free to engage in all kinds of sexual activity. He even had the support of Mrs. Kinsey, his wife and mother of their four children in this endeavor to free society from the bondage of repression. Mrs. Kinsey appeared in the July 1948 McCalls magazine, a magazine directed at women, but read by men and found in most American homes in that day, telling readers in an interview titled Meet Mrs. Kinsey, that her husband's work represented "a plea for tolerance.”
Yes, "Tolerance," the same word we hear today.According to Kinsey, people should be more tolerant of what previously had been thought of as promiscuity and perversion. Besides advocating homosexuality, Kinsey believed premarital sex was healthyand normal. He believed that waiting until marriage for intercourse was psychologically harmful. The worse offenders, the most intolerant were of course, American Christians.
Christians considered homosexuality, promiscuity, adultery and fornication to be sinful, thus causing repression and psychosis for everyone. Kinsey believed that they and anyone else who would oppose his work were those who stood in the way of science and progress because they believed such practices should be restrained, or worse… that they were somehow shameful, obscene, or harmful to others and that they should be considered illegal, punishable by law. It was time, in Kinsey’s mind for "tolerance" and time to "change" these views. With the Kinsey Reports he, and others who believed in his work felt they had the scientific research hat would set mankind free.
Working to validate his work in the minds of the American people were numerous factors. Besides being on the “best seller” status, popular and respected writers and magazines like Newsweek, McCalls, Life and Look, featured articles about Kinsey and his work. They knew the topic would peak the curiosity of the American public and sell magazines and papers. Some were happy in and of themselves to join the cause of “sexually liberating" the world. Interest in Kinsey's "research" also came from professionals in the medical community, many who were quite impressed that a scientifically minded colleague finally found out for them the very things they always wanted to ask their patients, but were afraid to ask.
In certain circles, Kinsey was respectable, knowledgeable and professional and the public was repeatedly informed that Kinsey’s Report was conducted scientifically and with full regard for the latest refinements in, "public survery methods."They were told to believe it was science, never realizing the real methods and who the subjects were.
I you are convinced it was not science at all, then you may not want to read on. This will only be repetitious for you. If you believe it was scientific think again. "science" was only an excuse for something that should have been considered criminal. Truth is, Kinsey used real, live, (even by today's standards,) "sex offenders." His scientific research was conducted with men both in, and recently released from prison for their crimes, men who were more than happy to perform or instigate sexual encounters with and between children. Kinsey's subjects were, no doubt, those who were biasly interested in the cause of liberated sex, and create less criminal penalties for such crimes.
His subjects were bias, in that they were prostitutes, people who frequented prostitutes, people who wanted affirmation and fulfillment of their otherwise rejected sexual provocations, people happy to find a “professional” who shared their enthusiasm for the topic, who even enjoyed attending the "doctors" s sex lectures. Kinsey was a source of an encouragement to themin their exploits and they to his own.
Kinsey valued the information the people on the fringe of society provided him and most provided information about their own sexuality to Kinsey on a regular basis. They were enthusiastic in participating and Kinsey shared in their enthusiasm. His biographer, James Jones, author of Alfred C. Kinsey: A Public Private Life, explained Kinsey’s pursuit for scientific information better than anyone. He wrote, “In his eagerness to learn everything he could about human sexuality, Kinsey was a vacuum cleaner, and he had absolutely no standards about censorship or passing moral judgment."
Like many of the people Kinsey researched, Kinsey himself had “no standards and no moral judgment.” With no thoughts on the matter, he was nothing but a vacuum who knew no restraint sucking up information no matter where it came from, be it wasps or rats or tiny babies in a crib, to him they were all the same, animals and research subjects. Sex was nothing sacred nor profound in his decrepit mind. To Kinsey and friends, sex of any kind, even sex between men and infants was to be considered perfectly normal. The sad and disturbing thing is that it is from the research of the man named Kinsey, that even today, most of the American public is educated about their own human sexuality, particularly the segment of society that loves to do as they will and even reject "God."
Kinsey thought himself to be a broadminded, progressive man, simply a scientist searching for believed his motives were altruistic. If the man had any question in his mind that he might have been doing something wrong, he regarded his work important enough to believe that the end result somehow that justified his means.As a trained entomologist, might have sincerely believed he was, simply studying a different kind of creature than a wasp when he delved into his study of human beings, he may have even believed that in his study he was working to benefit all of mankind in the future. Whatever it was he obviously rationalized his use of infants and prepubescent adolescents subjects to collect his data, for to Kinsey, pedophilia, (the rape and molesting of even the youngest of children, babies.. infants and toddlers,) was somehow justified. With his consciousness seared, as if with a hot iron, he didn't think such a thing was evil.
It’s a strong word; evil. But evil is exactly what kind of work it was because this man, father and husband should have been the kind of man to protect these children, even very young children, from the hands of ruthless men who used their tiny bodies not only to fulfill their own perverted passions, but for gathering information for Kinsey.
The Kinsey Institute has taken a lot of criticism over the years for these instances of what they still call “perceived child abuse" claims. They maintain to this day that Kinsey himself never personally had sexual interaction with children. They are also emphatic in stating that Kinsey had high moral standards in doing his research, after all, as they claim, “he always interviewed children in the presence of their parents.”
What they fail to acknowledge, if this is the case, is that these "parents" were the perpetrators and either allowed the allowed the abuse, or were the abusers. Inmany instances, who the perpetrator was or who the subject was, could be anybody’s guess; take for example, Mr. X.
Mr. X was a man whom Kinsey regularly obtained research information from and he was a known child molester,presumably an adult. Kinsey considered Mr. X to be a true “pioneer” in sexology because he actually took the time to journalize his exploits with a few hundred subjects.. er eh... victims. Working "scientifically, " and for the benefit of all mankind with Mr. X, did not seem something evil or perverse to Kinsey. And Mr, X’s behavior, was not viewed as detrimental to the children either. No, Kinsey who believed that children were sexual beings, having sexual encounters with Mr. X , did not believe that these encounters would be something harmful to the life and happiness of a child.
The Kinsey Institute even believes hat children today still reap the benefit of his research. In fact, University of Indiana where the Kinsey Research Institute is located and has been established since 1947, has expanded and become the Sex Information and Education Council of the United States (SIECUS) a group that works to insure the sexual education of America, a group that is very involved in American public schools. SIECUS sponsors school programs like “Right from the Start” and hosts internet webpages like “familiesaretalking.org.”
SEICUS is not just a secular organization, they also seek to educate religious communities by forming religious groups like the Religious Institute on Sexual Morality, Justice, and Healing. (RISMJH) Publishing pamphlets like The Really Good News: What the Bible Says About Sex, they obviously do not fail to address the sexual issues as they would like to think they relate to the Bible, but they fail to see the problem with the research of their all-time American Hero, Alfred C. Kinsey. And make no mistake, "The Religious Institute's mission is to change the way America understands the relationship of sexuality and religion." SEICUS and the RISMJH are educting America according to Kinsey,
But if you, like all those who uses these products and organizational materials, still doubt there was anything morally "wrong" with Kinsey's research, consider the testimony of Clarence Tripp, photographer and well-known writer on homosexual issues, (now deceased,) who was a friend and supporter of Kinsey when he was alive. In 1990, as a guest on the Phil Donahue Show, he defended Kinsey’s controversial research saying, “(Kinsey) would listen only to pedophiles who were very careful, used stopwatches, knew how to record their thing.”
This was not a revelation. Kinsey’s report testified to the accuracy of TRipps statement. The real revelation here is that people who listened to such testimonies rationalized the behavior of the adults as documented incidences of nepiophilia, rape, abuse, or incest took place while the pediophiles did their "thing." For whatever reason people, like Kinsey somehow believe that the "bad" behavior of the adults was legitimate. Kinsey, after all said he found it, “difficult to understand why a child should be disturbed by sexual contact, observation or molestation.” (Kinsey pg. 121)
SEICUS and RISMJH people simply nod their heads in approval of the studies Kinsey and they think his information is legitimate and accurate. Kinsey is their hero in the so-called, " sexual revolution." As a result of his heroic work into the inner workings of human sexuality, individuals and groups still work politically to gain public acceptance of prostitution as a legitimate form of work, pedophilia and child pornography as a legitimate business, sodomy no longer a crime and homosexual marriage as a legal right. Groups such as SEICUS and RISMJH aren;t the only Kinsey supporters today. The North American Man/Boy Love Association, (NAMBLA) would not be in business if it were not for the work of Alfred Kinsey and friends.
NAMBLA and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU work very hard, hand in hand to change laws, in particular the laws against such things as pedophilia, sodomy and the “age of consent." They believe these laws are unjust and say, these laws do nothing but terrorize those who find simple pleasure in various forms of sex. Like Kinsey before them, they cry that the rest of us should have “tolerance” as they simply fulfill their human desires.
But male sexuality and the hitherto before “secret” sexual life of little children was not all Kinsey would be remembered for. His report on women taught that women enjoy sex as much as men. It taught America that when women said no to sex, they really didn’t mean it. They might have said no, they might have even ought the man off tooth and nail, but Kinsey told America, that such behavior was a game and that the truth was that the women who said "no,"n only did so because of their sexual repression and from that day forward, Kinsey’s “revolutionary” sex theories were used to counter charges of rape in courts of law.
Anyone who was educated and scientific, who revered the work of Kinsey, had read the research on women. They were familiar with the report. It wasn't long before laws requiring severe punishments for offenses of rape, incest, and even sodomy seemed far too inhuman, after all this was sexuality, human sexuality....we were dealing with. Then of course came the heated issue of abortion.
With unrestrained sexuality being the order of the day, there were, needless to say, unwanted pregnancies ....and children, as Kinsey clearly demonstrated in his research were undeserving of human rights and protection under law. Considered fetuses, not babies, unborn children had already been proven by Darwin (and Kinsey) to be animals, merely products of a sex act, much less than human beings. Pregnancy was now a problem, not a blessing; and being pregnant, not to mention raising children was burdensome, repressive, certainly a hardship for individuals who wanted to be free to do whatever they so desired. Pregnancy however was a problem that could be remedied by abortion and better so if abortions would be made legal.
In 2004, Kinsey’s work gained notoriety once more for a whole new generation, and for a whole new generation of voters as the movie titled Kinsey hit the big important screen. The film was to be a portrait of the sex hero of a man, Alfred Kinsey; once more pictured for the public eye as a courageous scientist who discovered the deep truths about human sexuality through his bold and daring research. As this rated “R” film swept across the nation and across the world it served to re-educate a new generation. Moviegoers left the theater thinking that Kinsey was a hero, the ultimate free thinker.
SEICUS, the organization sponsored by the Kinsey Institute boasted that the movie grossed almost 4 million dollars. In addition, they boast that the movie has gained critical acclaim, having been nominated for several Golden Globe Awards, including Best Picture Drama and Best Actor Drama.
In response to the movie’s release, outspoken Christian and Dr. Judith Reisman has chosen to speak out for the voices of the children who have been shamelessly silenced by Kinsey’s “research.” She has written, several books on the matter; Kinsey: Crimes and Consequences; (1998) Kinsey, Sex and Fraud, The Indoctrination of a People; (1990) and Kinsey’s Attic: The Shocking Story of How One Mans Sexual Pathology Changed the World. (2006) She documents in her writings the research Kinsey did, the methods he used in doing his research and the financiay support he incurred to make it all happen. Her loud voice in the crowd as earned her a great backlash both from the gay and lesbian community and from the Kinsey Institute as well.
The Institute holds the position that Dr. Kinsey was honorable, meanwhile they paint the picture that Reisman is perpetrating evil by being intolerant and biased due to her religious beliefs. They continue to uphold the position that Mr. Kinsey was a man of impeccable scientific ethics, only motivated by an interest in the welfare of children and that he was and is a hero because he was protecting the children of the world from “negative, inhibitory, guilt-provoking influences.”
They say her concern about Tables 31 through 34 in the Male volume, is “an understandable concern.” Then they negate the concern by giving the official statement is that it would never have occurred to Kinsey that responses of “sobbing or crying or hypersensitivity” of a child having a sexual encounter with other children or an adult would be interpreted as “physical torture.” They then insist that Kinsey, the altruistic man that he was, if he thought that children were being harmed in any way, “would have been opposed to it.”
It’s pretty obvious that Kinsey wasn’t opposed, and since the publication of his Kinsey Report millions of teetering minds wavered in silence, confused, willing to entertain the thoughts the media projection was feeding to them. Amused at the mere notion of discovering more about themselves and satiating their own desires they were willing to entertain such wisdom from a man who didn;t care what was right and what was wrong. Millions still do to this day and it's almost as if America had been seduced into silence, not thinking anyore, simply listening to the wisdom of such self proclaimed, "experts".
Today a whole generation of people were educated and are still being educated in such Kinsian wisdom. They still herald Kinsey as some great liberator, a genius. Few dared to speak out in defense of the weak and helpless because they live in darkness and their personal misery loves the company of anyone who will keep them company. Like a big black hole, such misery, is like a vacuum, self-absorbed taking down into the depths of depravity anything not anchored down.
Into darkness it goes, seeking not God but how self and how self's desire can be fulfilled via sexual freedom. It's a deep dark place that replaces holy and sacred love with ...pornography, prostitution, pedophilia, bestiality, voyeurism, and other "harmless"( ? ) forms of sexual entertainment... and worse.
But we know from the scriptures that the words of wisdom, often guilt producing, will be perceived as either foolish or wise. To the wise they are wise. To the fool, wisdom is foolish.
It's sad to say, but those who reject God and believe man is but a product of evolution, no different than an animal, those who do not value human life and dignity,who seek only their own pleasure no matter who or what gets in their way, God will always be the villian, and men and women, like Mr. Kinsey will be thought of by them as some kind of hero.
Thanks be to God, he is long-suffering toward us, not willing that any should perish. He also loves us, forgives our sins gives us light to walk in instead of darkness, his love is forever an anchor to our soul and he gives us the amazing gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ. Not only did God created mankind upright, but even today his Holy Spirit is still working to restrain upon this earth, something known to humanity as evil.
Alfred Kinsey, (1894-1956) was at first a zoologist with a keen interest in insects, particularly wasps, but at the end of his life he was most notably a very famous "sex expert." It cannot go unoticed that there is much debate as to if he was an expert or a pervert, and to help one look at the debate about this more clearly, here is provided a somewhat short rendering of Kinsey's historic tale.
Alfred Kinsey's name and reputation first got widespread media coverage in 1948, when his book, Sexual Behavior in the Human Male was put into print. (It sold more than 200,000 copies the first month after tpublication.) A few years later in 1953, Kinsey published a sequel that was titled, Sexual Behavior in the Human Female. This too became a "National Bestseller," and the name Kinsey was almost a household word. He became world reknown for his research and his published fndings were intended to give the world a whole new perspective on human sexuality.
The Kinsey Report, as his works became called, served to change the way people viewed sex and sexuality, even family life. His scientifically collected data was published in order to shed some light on thing before thought to have been perverse or taboo. Research showed that at least 10% percent of the male population was exclusively homosexual, concluding for Kinsey that such behavor was not at all "abnormal" for men,as society previously thought. Not only that, but Kiinsey's research showed that, 46% of men in his studies responded sexually to both women and men, thus demonstrating that many hedrosexual men, "normall" had "homosexual tendencies."
Regarding marriage and family life, Kinsey stressed in his reports that multiple partners during marriage was normal. Research showed that 50% of men had extramarital affairs, as did 26 % of women. For all his research into the psyche and behavior of human sexuality and the influence it had on American families, Kinsey himself had become known as, "the Father of the sexual revolution."
Kinsey was an atheist who believed the research of Darwin and his theory and therefore took the view that man was simply a higher order animal. Being nothing more than an animal, he believed that human sexuality was really, simply a matter of doing what comes naturally, like it does with the animals. Kinsey believed that there were social taboos on certain sexual activities, not because they were "immoral," or harmful to other human beings, but because people were religiously superstitious. He believed peple were afraid of their own sexuality, and he even used the term, "sexually repressed"… (a Sigmund Freud invented term, ) to describe people who were “not properly in touch” with their sexuality.
So according to Kinsey, Americans were just simply too uptight, so he advocated that people be more open about sex and feel free to engage in all kinds of sexual activity. He even had the support of Mrs. Kinsey, his wife and mother of their four children in this endeavor to free society from the bondage of repression. Mrs. Kinsey appeared in the July 1948 McCalls magazine, a magazine directed at women, but read by men and found in most American homes in that day, telling readers in an interview titled Meet Mrs. Kinsey, that her husband's work represented "a plea for tolerance.”
Yes, "Tolerance," the same word we hear today.According to Kinsey, people should be more tolerant of what previously had been thought of as promiscuity and perversion. Besides advocating homosexuality, Kinsey believed premarital sex was healthyand normal. He believed that waiting until marriage for intercourse was psychologically harmful. The worse offenders, the most intolerant were of course, American Christians.
Christians considered homosexuality, promiscuity, adultery and fornication to be sinful, thus causing repression and psychosis for everyone. Kinsey believed that they and anyone else who would oppose his work were those who stood in the way of science and progress because they believed such practices should be restrained, or worse… that they were somehow shameful, obscene, or harmful to others and that they should be considered illegal, punishable by law. It was time, in Kinsey’s mind for "tolerance" and time to "change" these views. With the Kinsey Reports he, and others who believed in his work felt they had the scientific research hat would set mankind free.
Working to validate his work in the minds of the American people were numerous factors. Besides being on the “best seller” status, popular and respected writers and magazines like Newsweek, McCalls, Life and Look, featured articles about Kinsey and his work. They knew the topic would peak the curiosity of the American public and sell magazines and papers. Some were happy in and of themselves to join the cause of “sexually liberating" the world. Interest in Kinsey's "research" also came from professionals in the medical community, many who were quite impressed that a scientifically minded colleague finally found out for them the very things they always wanted to ask their patients, but were afraid to ask.
In certain circles, Kinsey was respectable, knowledgeable and professional and the public was repeatedly informed that Kinsey’s Report was conducted scientifically and with full regard for the latest refinements in, "public survery methods."They were told to believe it was science, never realizing the real methods and who the subjects were.
I you are convinced it was not science at all, then you may not want to read on. This will only be repetitious for you. If you believe it was scientific think again. "science" was only an excuse for something that should have been considered criminal. Truth is, Kinsey used real, live, (even by today's standards,) "sex offenders." His scientific research was conducted with men both in, and recently released from prison for their crimes, men who were more than happy to perform or instigate sexual encounters with and between children. Kinsey's subjects were, no doubt, those who were biasly interested in the cause of liberated sex, and create less criminal penalties for such crimes.
His subjects were bias, in that they were prostitutes, people who frequented prostitutes, people who wanted affirmation and fulfillment of their otherwise rejected sexual provocations, people happy to find a “professional” who shared their enthusiasm for the topic, who even enjoyed attending the "doctors" s sex lectures. Kinsey was a source of an encouragement to themin their exploits and they to his own.
Kinsey valued the information the people on the fringe of society provided him and most provided information about their own sexuality to Kinsey on a regular basis. They were enthusiastic in participating and Kinsey shared in their enthusiasm. His biographer, James Jones, author of Alfred C. Kinsey: A Public Private Life, explained Kinsey’s pursuit for scientific information better than anyone. He wrote, “In his eagerness to learn everything he could about human sexuality, Kinsey was a vacuum cleaner, and he had absolutely no standards about censorship or passing moral judgment."
Like many of the people Kinsey researched, Kinsey himself had “no standards and no moral judgment.” With no thoughts on the matter, he was nothing but a vacuum who knew no restraint sucking up information no matter where it came from, be it wasps or rats or tiny babies in a crib, to him they were all the same, animals and research subjects. Sex was nothing sacred nor profound in his decrepit mind. To Kinsey and friends, sex of any kind, even sex between men and infants was to be considered perfectly normal. The sad and disturbing thing is that it is from the research of the man named Kinsey, that even today, most of the American public is educated about their own human sexuality, particularly the segment of society that loves to do as they will and even reject "God."
Kinsey thought himself to be a broadminded, progressive man, simply a scientist searching for believed his motives were altruistic. If the man had any question in his mind that he might have been doing something wrong, he regarded his work important enough to believe that the end result somehow that justified his means.As a trained entomologist, might have sincerely believed he was, simply studying a different kind of creature than a wasp when he delved into his study of human beings, he may have even believed that in his study he was working to benefit all of mankind in the future. Whatever it was he obviously rationalized his use of infants and prepubescent adolescents subjects to collect his data, for to Kinsey, pedophilia, (the rape and molesting of even the youngest of children, babies.. infants and toddlers,) was somehow justified. With his consciousness seared, as if with a hot iron, he didn't think such a thing was evil.
It’s a strong word; evil. But evil is exactly what kind of work it was because this man, father and husband should have been the kind of man to protect these children, even very young children, from the hands of ruthless men who used their tiny bodies not only to fulfill their own perverted passions, but for gathering information for Kinsey.
The Kinsey Institute has taken a lot of criticism over the years for these instances of what they still call “perceived child abuse" claims. They maintain to this day that Kinsey himself never personally had sexual interaction with children. They are also emphatic in stating that Kinsey had high moral standards in doing his research, after all, as they claim, “he always interviewed children in the presence of their parents.”
What they fail to acknowledge, if this is the case, is that these "parents" were the perpetrators and either allowed the allowed the abuse, or were the abusers. Inmany instances, who the perpetrator was or who the subject was, could be anybody’s guess; take for example, Mr. X.
Mr. X was a man whom Kinsey regularly obtained research information from and he was a known child molester,presumably an adult. Kinsey considered Mr. X to be a true “pioneer” in sexology because he actually took the time to journalize his exploits with a few hundred subjects.. er eh... victims. Working "scientifically, " and for the benefit of all mankind with Mr. X, did not seem something evil or perverse to Kinsey. And Mr, X’s behavior, was not viewed as detrimental to the children either. No, Kinsey who believed that children were sexual beings, having sexual encounters with Mr. X , did not believe that these encounters would be something harmful to the life and happiness of a child.
The Kinsey Institute even believes hat children today still reap the benefit of his research. In fact, University of Indiana where the Kinsey Research Institute is located and has been established since 1947, has expanded and become the Sex Information and Education Council of the United States (SIECUS) a group that works to insure the sexual education of America, a group that is very involved in American public schools.
