Milo Yiannopoulos: The Leading Catholic Guilt Evangelist

I’ve found it strange that so many atheists — even many anti-theists — strive to protect and hail Milo Yiannapoulos, considering the fact that Milo is the leading Catholic evangelist of the modern era. It can be difficult to see this, due to what is, on the surface, an irreverent provocateur image. But a look at what Milo actually criticizes, what he extols, and when shows that he is very strategic about a completely different agenda: reinforcing Catholic guilt.

One of the reasons that people say he can’t be a serious Catholic is his own seemingly proud homosexuality. However, Milo Yiannapoulos takes advantage of spaces in which he is allowed to discuss his homosexuality to talk about how evil homosexuality is, right in line with the Catholic Church.

Someone asked him once: “How do you reconcile being a Roman Catholic and a homosexual? That is something that I never really understood.”

Milo did not defend homosexuality. He said that homosexuality was a sin, and that he was a sinner and thus needed the blood of Christ. No, really. Look:

If you think I’m a bad Catholic, imagine how bad I’d be without God. To ask this question — and I don’t mean to attack you in the least bit, I’m just trying to be completely honest with you — I think to ask that question requires a level of…I won’t say ignorance, I’ll just say a lack of understanding about the Catholic Church and about homosexuality;

Milo admits that Homosexuality is a sin. He says he needs forgiveness. He says he is a bad Catholic.

"Let those without sin cast the first stone" does not condone sin, but it shows compassion and requires a sense of self examination.

I have done things that I regret. Maybe there are those who have not.

His tactic are effective, he connects with young people.

He goes into Ivory Towers, one after the other, smashing up all manner of stupid ideas.

I’m tired of losing, and if the cost of winning —winning BIG— is putting up with a SINGLE turd burglar..?

I’M FINE WITH IT.

“Paris vaut bien une messe.”

And that comes from someone who lived in SF and had to stomach all MANNER of small-minded dictatorship from those cowardly homoz.

HE IS HELPING US.

The thread was removed earlier cuz some posters chose to focus on “how homo sausage actually gets made” —homo body parts, homo functions, etc.

It wasn’t on the greater question of The Culture War in America.

So the removal explanation was, “No thanks”, which....at that very physical point I couldn’t completely disagree with.

It wasn’t really a political discussion at that point.

I thought it was because it was posted in “News”, which I thought was correct, but you cannot be sure.

The lines between a News site and a Blog are becoming quite blurred.

So I reposted under Blogs.

It’s so refreshing and inspiring when someone “gets” Catholicism on its deeper level. The level of anointing and washing the feet of Christ with your tears and drying them with your hair! Who is to say Milo is not trying to follow his faith in chastity as all the faithful do?

It is between him and God. As he is Catholic, perhaps his Priest at confessional.

Thank you for saying it’s so well! That way I don’t have to say it but Milo truly does understand his Catholicism! The church is not for Saints it is for sinners and what he is doing is showmanship. He is actually helping to break down PC which is a great evil that prevents the telling of Truth Milo’s a great guy, a great conservative, a great Republican and a great Catholic activist!

I like the dude because he’s brilliant and discusses what should be important to everyone: Mutual Values that have nothing to do with race, sexuality or gender.

Listened to him a few days ago discussing hate crimes and that they are an abonimation to crime and really elevate special treatment of one group over another.

That is, if someone were to punch him in the face, there is a real possibility of enhancing the crime because he is gay.

Whereas, if he were to hit me, it would be simple assault.

Hate crimes are phony invention of “Thought Crimes” when the Crime itself ought to be the crime.

Besides, they are applied unevenly across groups.

Milo has also stated that he wishes he weren’t gay, that his life would be much easier, and he would like to have children some day. Says he tries “it” once a year or so, but hasn’t been successful, yet. He also acknowledges that he drifted into homosexuality as a teen as an ultimate act of parental rebellion.

He really isn’t our enemy, and is a master at red-pilling the younger generation.
