SALT LAKE CITY – On the one hand, Utah State Sen. Todd Weiler is absolutely right when he says pornography is a public health crisis, more addictive than cocaine and leading to a “broad spectrum of individual and public health impacts and societal harms.”

On the other hand, the total lack of reference to gay pornography in Weiler’s new bill, S.C.R. 9, strongly suggests the senator could be a political plant, a crony of the fat (but admittedly well-dressed) cats of Big Homosexuality, part of their ongoing effort to foist their sinful lifestyle upon America, corrupt and recruit our young boys and erode God’s willingness to protect our country from her enemies at home and abroad.

Sure, Weiler talks a good game, backing up his assertions about porn by noting he has “read books” and “experts tell me pornography is more difficult to overcome than cocaine,” but in his next breath, he revealed a disturbing progressivism which severely undermined my confidence in the man, even before I’d read his flawed legislation.

“These are scientific facts,” Weiler said, “just like global warming.”

There you have it folks — a telltale sign this man can’t be trusted.

Reading between the lines, what Weiler has done by analogizing his claims about porn to liberal-backed, pseudo-scientific, known and proven mega-fraud like the big lie of global warming, he’s subtly — and intentionally — undermining his own argument.

This led me to believe Weiler is what one might call a “Man-on-Manchurian” candidate.

Once I took a look at his bill, my suspicions immediately were confirmed. Again and again, throughout this supposedly anti-pornography bill, the opportunity to include language directly aimed at gay porn is ignored, as though gay porn isn’t the gateway to Islamist terrorism!

Cleverly wrapping his homosexual lies in the cloak of straight truth, Weiler writes “pornography use is linked to lessening desire in young men to marry, dissatisfaction in marriage, and infidelity.” Sure, we all know this to be true — but what could make young men less likely to marry than developing an addiction to gay porn, where they are encouraged to treat with reverence the muscular abdomens of men with names like Chad, Brody and Austin?

Nowhere in Weiler’s bill does he mention the travesty of gay porn’s constant use of imagery associated with manly heroes, including the penchant of gay porn producers to dress their performing poofters like firemen, cops and other first responders.

Omitted from his legislation is any mention of the popularity of military imagery in gay porn, a thematic device clearly designed to send a message it’s OK to be both gay and a soldier — a secular liberal fallacy that undermines the morale of our soldiers and promotes the notion everybody in the military has a mustache like Tom Selleck’s.

In his bill, Weiler asserts “pornography treats women as objects and commodities for the viewer’s use, it teaches girls they are to be used and teaches boys to be users,” but not once does he tell us what gay porn teaches.

Never does he address the gay porn tradition — a tradition that reaches back to the infamous Greek progressive Socrates — of encouraging young men to renounce God in favor of an obsession with interior decorating and set aside their Bibles in favor of the tools of the hairstyling trade.

If Weiler were really out to help society and address the scourge of pornography, wouldn’t he dedicate at least one “WHEREAS” to addressing the false egalitarianism of the reach-around? Would the citizens of Utah not be well served to be warned about their sons wanting to shave and oil their chests in an attempt to mimic the well-muscled but decidedly false idols promoted by Sean Cody?

The final nail in the coffin of the possibility Weiler is actually trying to solve America’s porn problem comes with his total refusal to address one of the most disturbing behaviors associated with porn consumption.

“My resolution does not deal with masturbation,” Weiler said. “I think that’s beyond the scope of what I’m doing. We’re not going to outlaw masturbation in Utah.”

If there were any doubt about Weiler’s insincerity with respect to concern for public health, this absurd statement about masturbation removes it, without question. Masturbation is beyond the scope of a bill addressing pornography? What does Weiler think people do as they’re watching porn — make a romantic dinner for two?

While many of my anti-porn friends applaud Weiler, I just can’t bring myself to do the same. Not while he’s shielding gay porn from scrutiny, whether he’s doing so because he’s one of “them” or merely intimidated by their growing number of sympathizers in the legislative community.

Regardless of his motive, one thing is clear: Weiler wants God to deliver more dead soldiers to America. It’s the only logical explanation, just as God testing our Christian faith is the only logical explanation for the existence of dinosaur bones.
