On this note - I saw a video made for Valentines Day, by the son of one of the most chashuv lamdanim and mechabrei sfarim [I am well acquainted with them] in the USA. In it, he shows how he found two homosexual homeless men [who didn't seem to be 100 "all there" and lucid], bought them a new wardrobe, paid for them to have a "romantic" dinner and then gave them a free night in a fancy hotel in a room together so that they could immerse themselves in the Tumah of משכב זכור.
For real.
He couldn't find two people more deserving of a free night together in a hotel than two homosexual men.
He also wears his yarmulke [and long beard] throughout the video that will be watched by hundreds of thousands if not millions.
And Hashem said in the Torah Ha-kedosha:
"וְאֶת זָכָר לֹא תִשְׁכַּב מִשְׁכְּבֵי אִשָּׁה תּוֹעֵבָה הִיא"
"וְאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר יִשְׁכַּב אֶת זָכָר מִשְׁכְּבֵי אִשָּׁה תּוֹעֵבָה עָשׂוּ שְׁנֵיהֶם מוֹת יוּמָתוּ דְּמֵיהֶם בָּם"
It was supposed to be a "feel good" video. It made me sick. It is hard to imagine a more widespread Chilul Hashem than what he caused.
But we live in a world where if one promotes Biblical morality, he is called a "bigot" or "homophobe" or "misogynist" or other pejorative terms. To be "truly enlightened" one must be in favor of almost "anything goes".
We shouldn't be embarrassed to stand behind eternal, immutable morals and values.
