DEAR EUGENE DELGAUDIO:

YOUR ASSIGNMENT TO DEFEND THE PUBLIC AGAINST THE ADVANCE OF HOMOSEXUALITY IS MOST COMMENDABLE. INDEED, YOUR ASSESSMENT THAT HOMOSEXUALITY IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH HETEROSEXUALITY IS NOT ONLY COMMENDABLE; IT IS ADMIRABLE.

THE PREMISS OF HETEROSEXUALITY IS THAT GOD CREATED HUMANITY AS MAN AND WOMAN. THE TWO ARE SEXUALLY COMPLEMENTARY. JUST AS THE HUMAN PERSON IS ENDOWED WITH MANY DIFFERENT FACULTIES, SUCH AS SIGHT, HEARING, TOUCHING, ETC., S/HE IS ALSO ENDOWED WITH THE FACULTY OF SEX. WHEREAS IN OUR SENSES, THERE IS BUT ON FACULTY OF SIGHT HEARING, SEEING, ETC., FOR EACH SEPARATE INDIVIDUAL, BUT TWO SEPARATE ORGANS FOR EACH OF THESE FACULTIES, THERE IS ALSO ONLY ONE FACULTY FOR A PERSON'S SEXUALITY (VIZ., POWER TO PROCREATE HER/HIS OFFSPRING). THIS UNITARY FACULTY ALSO HAS TWO SEPARATE ORGANS: THE MALE AND FEMALE ORGANS. UNLIKE THE SENSORY ORGANS PREVIOUSLY INDICATED (VIZ., THE EYE AND THE EAR) THESE SEXUAL ORGANS ARE FOUND IN TWO SEPARATE BUT COMPLEMENTARY INDIVIDUALS.

​THE PREMISS OF HOMOSEXUALITY IS NOT THAT GOD CREATED HUMANITY AS SEXUALLY COMPLEMENTARY BUT THAT MANKIND CREATES ITS OWN SEXUALITY NOT TO BE PROCREATIVE BUT TO BE SELF-RECREATIVE. THE TWO ANTIPODAL PREMISES ARE NOT ONLY INCONGRUOUS, THEY ARE ANTITHETICAL. THIS ANTAGONISM BETWEEN THE TWO POSITIONS HAS NO COMMON GROUND FOR DISCUSSION OR DIALOGUE.

​IN OTHER WORDS, THE SEXUAL FACULTY IS NATURALLY EITHER PROCREATIVE OR RECREATIVE. FOR THE HOMOSEXUAL, IT IS EXCLUSIVELY THE LATTER. FOR THE HETEROSEXUAL, IT IS BOTH TOGETHER. THE PERSONS COMMITTED TO HETEROSEXUALITY ARE OPEN TO ACKNOWLEDGING GOD AS THEIR CREATOR; THE PERSONS NOT OPEN TO HETEROSEXUALITY ARE COMMITTED TO DENYING GOD AS THEIR CREATOR. THE FORMER PERSONS ARE OPEN TO ACKNOWLEDGING AN AUTHORITY TRANSCENDENT TO THEMSELVES. THE LATTER (VIZ., THE HOMOSEXUALISTS) ARE NOT OPEN TO ACKNOWLEDGING AN AUTHORITY TRANSCENDENT TO THEMSELVES.

​HENCE, THE ISSUE IS NOT THAT HOMOSEXUALS AND HOMOSEXUALITY ARE THREATENING THE RELIGIOUS LIBERTY OF HETEROSEXUAL AMERICANS, THE ISSUE IS THAT THEY ARE THREATENING THE VERY EXISTENCE OF AMERICA'S DEMOCRATIC CONSTITUTIONALITY!!! OUR SOCIETY IS BASED ON THE PREMISS THAT ALL OF HUMANKIND IS CREATED EQUAL. BUT THE HOMOSEXUALIST CREED IS THAT HOMOSEXUALITY IS NATURAL AND NOT ARBITRARY. SEXUALITY IS NOT PROCREATIVE BUT RE-CREATIVE. THAT IS, SEXUALITY IS NOT ENGENDERING NEW LIFE BUT INDULGING ONE'S SELF IN ONE'S OWN VENEREAL PLEASURE WHICH IS MORE ENJOYABLE WITH TWO PERSONS THAN WITH ONE ONLY.

THE HOMOSEXUALIST'S VIEW OF HUMANITY IS NOT ONLY SHORT-SIGHTED AND DEMEANING; IT IS NOT GOD-FEARING NOR ADMITTING OF THE EQUALITY OF THE DIFFERENT GENDERS NATURALLY INHERENT IN THE HUMAN PERSON. FURTHERMORE, IT IS DOUBLY STINTING AND DEHUMANIZING BY DENYING TO FUTURE HUMAN PERSONS THEIR NATURAL ENTITLEMENT TO BOTH A FATHER AND A MOTHER TO OVERSEE THEIR UPBRINGING AND DEVELOPMENT. IT IS A BLUEPRINT FOR ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION AND THE ELIMINATION OF THE FAMILY AS THE NATURAL HAVEN FOR THE BIRTH AND REARING OF NEW-BORN OFFSPRING.

PRAYERFULLY AND CORDIALLY YOURS, RICHARD E. DUMONT, OCDS, PH.D....

Think 2ce before deciding to do the Cincinnati archdiocese marriage tribunal annulment process !

For what its worth.. This is my opinion of the cincinnati archdiocese marriage tribunal’s annulment process -

Cincinnati archdiocese marriage tribunal annulment process Demands too much and offers too little to nothing in return..!! They demand that you answer over a hundred in-depth personal questions (f100 petition], and they don't require the same of your spouse –[ they do require all this from you but don't guarantee that you'll get any answers in return].. To help you see why your spouse wanted a divorce or annulment .

Plus they demand that you sit with one of their priests [who has no exp of ever being mar'd] who administers a psychiatric evaluation of you ! The cincinnati archdiocese marriage tribunal is very judgmental and demanding !

..if no priest was qualified to do a psychiatric evaluation for someone involved in a tribunal case, then WHY was that performed on me ?! As I had to sit with one of your priests [who has no exp of ever being mar'd] who administers a psychiatric evaluation !

I happened to think about & remember this recently and it still bothered me as the facts remain.. I did my part and she never did hers and no one there cared! You all scrutinized my replies and my work efforts, but no one there cared or required her to do her part at all! I did the work, but I didn’t get what I wanted.. answers [as to why she left our marriage].. or even a annulment certificate!).

I was never given the option of doing my interview over the telephone when I was unable to come to the tribunal.!

They do all this and don't even offer you a certificate of annulment …all they give you is a mediocre-at-best form letter !

Plus they charge you over $100 for this – [the cost of an annulment normally ranges from $200 to $1,000 in fees,] ; The tribunal in Cincinnati did charge me a fee in 2010.

..and the whole entire process requires and involves several months of work and visits and phone calls…. all this is required of you and they offer very little or nothing in return !!

I think that needs to be improved!..-

We do all this and don't even offer you a certificate of annulment …all they give you is a mediocre-at-best form letter !

Just that letter seems a little ‘weak’ for all of the work and efforts that was required!.. don’t you agree?

So WHY is there no actual ‘certificate’ [like a marriage or divorce certificate)? Esp’ly for all of the work and efforts that was required!

My entire pt is that I think that needs to be improved!..-

THE Cincinnati archdiocese marriage tribunal annulment process- • DEMANDS TOO MUCH AND OFFERS TOO LITTLE TO NOTHING IN RETURN • THEY DEMAND THAT YOU ANSWER A HUNDRED IN DEPTH PERSONAL QS • AND THEY DONT REQUIRE THE SAME OF YOUR SPOUSE • THEY DONT GUARANTEE THAT YOULL GET ANY ANSWERS IN RETURN • THEY WONT HELP YOU SEE WHY YOUR SPOUSE...

To the archbishop I think Catholic I’m a shame for what I’ve seen on social media and on the news this evening. You are the leader of your community and yet you have failed. You have to teach future minds to understand the basis of the Catholic culture and charities of humility and being humble. I request that this should be a full investigation on the students and that there should be no vote of confidence on the archbishop of Cincinnati for you have not stand with me in any guilt to what the students have done to others in the name of the Roman catholic church...
