Jesse Kern came out of hiding today. The 31-year old son of homophobic Oklahoma lawmaker Sally Kern spoke with Tulsa World today to address all those pesky gay rumors.
Kern insists that he’s not gay, but simply a celibate metaphysicist!
[Kern] said that he chooses to be celibate, but he is not homosexual.
“First of all, no one’s sexuality is anyone’s business. It is not even my mother’s business,” he said. “I practice celibacy to give to my God,” he said.
Kern said metaphysics helps teach him such things such as concentration, which has helped him keep focused with all the adverse publicity surrounding his mother’s comments.
Kern makes sure to note that he doesn’t condone his mother’s comments, but applauds her for speaking her mind, although he hasn’t listened to the audio. He also offered tacit gay approval: “[There] needs to be honor in any relationship whether it is a straight or gay relationship.”
Glad his mother didn’t pass the insanity gene.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.

Don’t know about not passing the insanity gene, but at least he does’nt express it like she does. Better to let sleeping dogs lie? Bless his metaphysical heart !

The only people who are celibate by choice are gay people who are ashamed of their feelings, like Catholic priests.
Dom
No, actually the only people who are TRULY celibate are the one who have had their dicks and balls caught in a wheat thresher.

He. is. gay.

FTA:“I practice celibacy to give to my God,†he said.
Does this sentence make anyone else’s head hurt? Give your “G”od what?

Imagine the life this family has lived.
Thank you Sally Kern for showing America the true meaning of “Family Values”
Where the hell is Oklahomo anyway?

i pray for him

Still living in the supernatural……But a step above the Southern Baptist mindset of his parents. Maybe someday he will get real and be honest, come out and cut the umbilical cord from his monster mother. He needs to know that to bite the hand that feeds you is to escape their “Jesus” insanity. It’s called personal growth.
Dawster
i used to use that same excuse to get laid.

I’d do anything for my mother too. Probably even lie.
And if she fucked me up, I’d probably believe that horseshit too!

I wonder if his parents sent him away to one of those de-gaying camps. Really, this fellow is an enigma wrapped in a riddle and sealed with a cipher.
Obviously he has rebelled against the militant Jesusism of his parents, but has replaced it with another cult-system — as many do. Once the mind is warped so far, it can never truly go back to normality. Perhaps some people are just brain-wired to be led by the nose, I thank all the Gods that ever existed that I’m NOT one of them.

Some gay men are so completely convinced that they will go to hell if they ever have sex, that they will do anything to avoid it. Many of them become priests. Some remain celibate for a long time. Some remain celibate for their entire lives. (Not always the same ones who become priests, of course.) They try to convince themselves that they are happy. Some throw themselves into other work to avoid dealing with their own sexuality. Some drink or drug themselves into oblivion. Some of them commit suicide.
They are truly sick people. Their minds are warped by a lifetime of hate and bigotry, turned inward against themselves. Many are completely unable to tell the truth even to themselves. Their own families will never fully know them. They will never be fully open or honest.
We should have pity on them.
Steve S.
I do have great pity for him. He looks quite unhappy. Gaunt. Big dark circles around his eyes. His life is centered around metaphysics, any port in a storm I guess. Any avenue to try to find happiness. We can all be happy by just being who we are, who God or the Cosmos made us. When we set out on a lifetime of soul-searching or other religionist bull-crap, it is most likely because we have denied an important part of our beautiful humanity — otherwise there would be no need. Life is short, and to waste it searching for some false spiritual drivel is obscene. Life is for living, and loving. He may be living, but it’s not really a life without full human love. If God didn’t want you to use your beautiful human penis, He would have put it in the middle of your back.

Metaphysic is, essentially, nothing. It is purely mental masturbation. An endless thought-diddle. It is quite apt as a replacement for physical masturbation as it just moves the act from the penis to the brain.
Metaphysics has been attacked, at different times in history, as being futile and overly vague, or of no use entirely.
David Hume went so far as to write:
If we take in our hand any volume; of divinity or school metaphysics, for instance; let us ask, Does it contain any abstract reasoning concerning quantity or number? No. Does it contain any experimental reasoning concerning matter of fact and existence? No. Commit it then to the flames: for it can contain nothing but sophistry and illusion.

Immanuel Kant prescribed a limited role to the subject and argued against knowledge progressing beyond the world of our representations, except to knowledge that the noumena exist:
…though we cannot know these objects as things in themselves, we must yet be in a position at least to think them as things in themselves; otherwise we should be landed in the absurd conclusion that there can be appearance without anything that appears.
– Critique of Pure Reason pp. Bxxvi-xxvii

Nice copy straight from Wikipedia, Kevin.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metaphysics#Criticism)
You honestly think that we have not benefited from discussions of space, time, and our place in them? Or religion (theology)? I can debate a religious person about their beliefs using entirely non-quantifiable logic and arguments not derived from empiricism, but common sense and previous work by others.
I think this would be a very different (and worse) world without such mental masturbation.
(Of course I refer to metaphysical study, not plagiarizing philosophy on gay blogs.)

Stating sources and plagiarizing doesn’t get together, stupid.

When Jesse’s head explodes (and it will) the local authorities better keep an eye on him.

Why in the world does this guy have to talk to anyone about his sexuality? Poor guy…and then to have cyber-loonies evaluate him. Whew!
