Bankrupt Brokeback
Barbara Nicolosi gets it. All the frenetic ejaculations of praise for the new "Gay Cowboy" film is much to do about nothing. The accolades are about agenda, not about great story telling. The film is simply boring. Contrary to this being the "Gay Gone with the Wind" - the film fails to engage the audience and create affection for these characters or their relationship.

Ms. Nicolosi was just recently on Relevant Radio talking about the film. It seems that if the objective was to portray gay love in its romantic depths and hights, then it fails miserably and shows that there is nothing but raw physicality, violence and selfishness at the heart of gay relationships.

Perhaps what the film really suceeds in doing is showing just how unnatural gay "love" really is. Against such a sweeping backdrop of pastoral scenes of the raw beauty of nature, the film sets this relationship which in contrast strikes the audience as awkward, lacking in deep intimacy and ultimately "icky" - the incarnation of the un-natural. Beyond this message, it says that our sexual urges define us and control us and that is "good" - this un-natural desire drives these men, who are both married, to leave their families. Brokeback Mountain suceeds is demonstrating (unintentionally?) that homosexuality is a bankrupt way of life that destroys people.

Of course this film will win multiple Oscars this year, but that says more about how much the Hollywood Establishment hates George Bush's America than it does about this as a film.

We all see through it so, no harm done?

Well, not exactly.

The people who get hurt by this film are the young men who are suffering from same-sex-syndrome and think that this is "how God made them." The sad reality is that these men will likely be "helped" into a coming out sensitivity group and initiated into the gay lifestyle. They will never be told about how their future happiness and fulfillment as persons will be short changed and even their life expectancy will likely take a toll. This is the real tragedy of a culture that refuses to help the people most hurt by same sex syndrome - homosexuals themselves.

On the lighter side.

It seems that the most monumental aspect of this film is that it finally gives us a plausible back-story for the singer from the Villiage People who wears the cowboy hat (sadly, the handle-bar moo-stach still remains a mystery).

Ahh . . . those where the days: when homosexuality was just a fun song on the dance floor. Today, "Young man, are you listening to me?" means something entirely different.
