Nothing New

St. John Chrysostom, commenting on Titus 2, relates various Greek histories of the gods and dramas, pointing out their various perversions. He especially excoriates their love of boys and their perversion in dishonoring women. He exhorts the Christians to not be like this.

"O ye subverters of all decency, who use men, as if they were women, an dlead out women to war as if they were men."

Why do Americans want to go back to what the Lord already rescued us from?

Great quote. Sad to see nothing has changed over the centuries. I guess mankind never learns.
