Doctor banned for prescribing 'gay cure' aka chemical castration...to teen

 

Mark Christopher James Craddock, a member of the Exclusive Brethren Christian sect, prescribed the anti-androgen therapy cyproterone acetate (Cyprostat) during a 10-minute consultation in February 2008.
The patient, who was a member of the same sect, had been referred to Dr Craddock, 75, by a church leader after he declared he was gay.
In a letter of complaint to the NSW Health Care Complaints Commission, the patient stated that the leader told him "there's medication you can go on".
Dr Craddock wrote him a prescription for Cyprostat with five repeats.
Four months later, the doctor admitted to the NSW Medical Council's professional standards committee that he did not ask for the patient's medical history, conduct a physical exam nor arrange a second appointment.
Nor did he refer the teen to a psychologist, despite the drug manufacturer's recommendations, or discuss the drug's side effects, which include impotence.
Dr Craddock, 75, later admitted to the committee it was dangerous to prescribe so much Cyprostat unsupervised.
Last month the committee found him guilty of unsatisfactory professional conduct.

 I'm sure steering clear of those Exclusive Brethren...Listen do Sydney Anglicans recommend chemical castration too?

No Ennis...I think they recommend "mail order "brides and arranged marriages as their cure. Didn't you hear that Sydney Anglican, Haydn Sennitt was the key speaker at the Asia Exodus Conference in Melbourne...and everyone was so impressed with his life story? Sydney Anglicans have got plenty of women floating around...they grow them to serve men.

What the story where Jesus encourages Haydn to give up his 100 homosexual lovers because his Sydney Anglican Church wanted to expel him...and so Jesus told him to ask his friend to introduce him to his non-English speaking sister who lived in Singapore ...so he could get married? Well I suppose it another way of tackling the surrogacy problems that homosexual couples face! So now all these young men with unwanted same-sex attraction can pray to Jesus for a niave wife. 




Oh come on fellas...after all it was the Asia Exodus conference! It's a real shame Haydn's not into weight loss... cause Jenny Craig is looking for a new ambassador... since I fell off the weight loss 'band wagon'. It's so easy to stay on it while you are getting all the attention but it sure is hard to maintain!

The Anglican Church League pays tribute to Bishop Wallace Benn for his orthodox stance against women, LGBT and children's rights!

Hi... I'm Michael Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Ali, friend to Wallace Benn and the Sydney Anglican diocese... and I want to protect the right of Christians to discriminate...  "Unless basic Christian values are upheld, human rights will become another inhuman ideology"

The Rt. Rev Wallace Benn, Bishop of Lewes, is a retiring UK bishop who has is an ally of the Sydney Anglican Diocese. He like Sydney Anglicans, cannot take the oath of canonical obedience to a female and can’t have fellowship with those who condone the ordination of openly gay clergy. However, it is reported, that Bishop Wallace Benn, can grant permission to officiate to a  paedophile priest and mislead a judge by not reporting events accurately. Wallace Benn is currently the subject of disciplinary measures following on from the Butler Sloss report into the sexual assaults of children by priests in the Diocese of Chichester.

 

Ennis...Sounds like Wallace Benn is as recalcitrant as the Sydney Anglican diocese .... "The previous Bishop of Chichester had been in office for many decades. His legacy was a system of area bishops...Even more extraordinary is Bishop Hind’s admission that because of this situation he felt ‘paralysed’.... In particular he felt as if he had little or no authority in the east of the diocese where Bishop Wallace Benn, a deeply conservative evangelical and former chair of Reform, exercised a quasi independent jurisdiction ."

Yes Jake...obviously "turning a blind eye" to the sexual assault of children is another pathology of a patriarchal  diocese with a deep hatred of women. As Colin says... The Diocese of Chichester has one diocesan and two area bishops, and since women were ordained to the priesthood, no bishop in the diocese has supported the ordination of women. Women are inevitably more vulnerable in a diocese like Chichester which has such a strong anti-women’s ordination culture....And it seems a few of those ex-gay, post-gat, closeted gays hung out in the diocese too.

Peter Sherlock Vice-Chancellor of MCD University of Divinity apologises to real flesh-and-blood complementarians who never experience relationship problems!

Peter says...Nonetheless, I owe my readers an apology in relation to the final few paragraphs of my last post.
I argue that the logic of ‘complementarianism’ inevitably leads to the disturbing positions I have described. I recognise, however, that few if any Christians who describe themselves as ‘complementarians’ would or could directly support them.
While I may dislike it, or not wish to acknowledge it, there are real flesh-and-blood human beings who identify as ‘complementarians’. Each and every one of you is made in the image of God and is offered the free and gracious gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. To generalise about you, to bear false witness to you, is to suggest that somehow you are excluded from these great truths and to deny you full humanity and the free will which accompanies it.
I am obliged to say more about my thinking about the gospel and gender, and a fuller post will follow in time.
And one of his readers thinks Peer is being a bit hard on himself by commenting...

   ...Second, in your wish to acknowledge ‘flesh-and-blood’ complementarians I hope you will also acknowledge the ‘flesh-and-blood’ women who have been, and continue to be, objectified, raped, beaten, abused, controlled, silenced or diminished: actions which lucidly endorse and express the idea that women should be submissive to men.

Missy... I don't know who you can tell about them beatings and that mental abuse... I mean all them lot are inbred. They're either all related to each other, or they are all brown- nosing each other cause they all work together ...or they don't want to become involved incase they lose their jobs...and all them wives are out and about telling women to be silent and submit...and getting men to speak for them when they write publicly and are criticised! If you say something  ... then they'll reckon your emotionally disturbed because your husband's so influential, and everyone thinks he's so smart and so nice  ...and if you report the abuse to outside authorities then you'll be left alone and an outcast. And it's no good me saying anything cause they'll attack my credibility by calling me a heretic and a dyke cause I'm not married ...I reckon you are going to have to suck it up!  I told you Missy... submission isn't about marrying Prince Charming, who will look after you forever ...Prince Charming often grows into a King with power issues!

I don't know Calam...I reckon the psychology behind having wives pledge a vow of submission will solve all Missy's husband's problems.  It sets the ground rules so she knows that whenever her husband gets upset with her ...it's her fault ...and that's because she hasn't submitted enough and made him angry! And Missy's pledge of silence will make it easier on others ...because we won't feel uncomfortable about having to deal with awkward situations...we can just continue to "get off" on God ...like a bunch of heady teenagers ...because our cult is so superficial ...just like our theology!

 

 

Peter Sherlock Vice-Chancellor of MCD University of Divinity, writes about Sydney Anglican female submission...

 

Peter Sherlock who is the Vice-Chancellor of MCD University of Divinity, and a Lay Canon of St Paul’s Cathedral, Melbourne has posted an article about Sydney Anglican's female submission vow. Peter says...
What is really going on here? During the last decade, English-speaking Evangelical Christians have been describing themselves as ‘complementarians’ and ‘egalitarians’, both claiming scriptural authority. As is apparent, I reject both these terms not only as inadequate but downright misleading in the search for a biblically-based Christianity...Sydney Anglican leaders claim that these are vows with biblical warrant, for the New Testament includes passages exhorting wives to ‘submit’ to their husbands...This is, nonetheless, the most disturbing development to come out of Sydney Anglicanism in its long and proud history. It is unbiblical, idolatrous, and sinful.The proposed service takes the analogy of church / bride and Christ / husband used by St Paul and hardens it, such that the bride becomes the church and the husband becomes Christ. The woman submits to her husband as if he were God.
While this might suit the present fad for would-be saviours of baseball-bat Christianity like Mark Driscoll, it is not good news. There is only one God, and both male and female are made in God’s image, not husbands alone.
The proposed service ties women, however willingly at the time, to a holy vow before God that they will submit to their husband without qualification. Vows like this become meaningful, not when life is easy and love is shared, but in those tough times that occur in all relationships.
When the nice Sydney Anglican husband falls off the rails, forgets his vow to love his bride like Christ, and comes home and beats she has no choice but to submit to the assault. Calling the police or ringing the women’s refuge is not an option. The best she can hope for is that her male pastor might notice the bruises and have a discreet word to her husband about his duty to be Christ-like in his love before she is in fear of her life....The proposed Sydney Anglican wedding service attempts to cement the ideology of complementarianism in the most common public occasion where gender and Christianity are explicated: marriage. It reveals how far this division has gone, how false this division is, and how horrific is the true agenda.
Complementarians do not teach merely that women cannot be leaders in the home or the church. In fact there is nothing whatsoever that is complementary (or complimentary) about the relationship between man and women within marriage. At the end of the day, when the going gets tough, the wife must do whatever her husband requires.
Complementarians support rape within marriage.
Complementarians believe domestic violence is a domestic problem the husband should solve.
Complementarians believe women should not read the bible in church meetings when men are present.
Complementarians are unbiblical, idolatrous and sinful.
Complementarians believe in slavery, and the duty of slaves to submit to their masters.
This is not Christian, this is not Anglican, and Sydney is worthy of far better than this.
So I hope and pray that members of Sydney Synod will throw out this perilous innovation and avoid condemning a whole generation of bible-believing women to unbiblical submission.

Bill you know them bondage sessions... are them women allowed to scream out... or do they remain silent like Sydney Anglican women. Surely when they call out "Mercy" them fellas know they've asserted too much control?

Calam... "Mercy" might work in bondage sessions... but I think Sydney Anglicans are more about combative submission ...so I think that they would prefer "I surrender" or "I give up" from their women!

 

Anthony Venn- Brown's daughter tells her story about the relationship she has with her gay father

 

The Sunday Telegraph has published Hannah Pate's story, when as a teenager, her preacher dad announced he was gay.
"Growing up, my father was a travelling preacher and he'd spend half the year on the road. When he came home, I'd be so excited. He was very charismatic - his sermons were like rock concerts.
When I was 13, Dad broke down and told my mum, my sister and me that he'd decided to give up preaching. I was surprised, but just wanted him to do what made him happy.
Over the next year, things became strange at home. Dad moved between different jobs, and one day I came home to find he'd gone.
Mum told us Dad had left because he was gay. She handled it incredibly well, telling us, 'He'll always be your dad and you are always to love him.'
The first time I went to visit Dad, I was nervous. I'd never known a gay person and we'd been taught it was a sin. But once I saw him, I realised nothing had changed between us.
I decided to be really open about the fact my dad was gay. I wanted people to know I supported him. Plus, I thought if everyone knew, no one could hold it against me or bully me about it at school.
It was only recently that I specifically told Dad how proud I am of him, but I think my actions spoke louder than words. I was always willing to go out with his friends and be part of his new life.
My two daughters, aged 10 and 14, have grown up knowing their 'Poppy' is gay, and I know if they ever have a friend who comes out, they'll offer acceptance without judgment.
We're still Christian and Dad has started an organisation called freedom2b, which supports Christians on their journey in coming out.
I'm grateful for this experience because it's allowed me to be accepting of people who are different from me. No matter what, Dad will always be my dad - our relationship is more important than anything else."
Anthony says: "I didn't think Hannah would accept my sexuality and I walked away knowing I might never see her again. I'm so proud she speaks up when anyone displays ignorance about sexual orientation."

Hey Ennis...that is a pretty good Father's Day story ... but it's a bit too nice a story for Christrian's to tell...I think I'd rather Phillip Jensen's Father's Day story about Satan and his children . It's a good reminder that evangelicals who say we're shameless are just plain bonkers! 

Happy Father's Day to Sydney Anglican Daddies...

Daddy ... my Father's Day pledge to you is ... "I promise to remain infantile and ever submissive to Sydney Anglican men... and that's so God has no doubt about my faith committment"... Oh I nearly forgot... I purchased you a voucher ...so if your faith is ever tested then you can get mum to prove your faith to God. 

 

Hey Whoopi... I heard via the grapevine... that Richard Glover from the ABC has made a good suggestion... he thinks that  fluffy handcuffs should be included with the Sydney Anglican's bridal bouquet ... You know what's sad Whoopi?...

I know Gail...when Sydney Anglicans show their ignorance and arrogance by displaying  no understanding of the connotations of the word 'submission' ... and overlook its implications so completely. That's when you get a husband taking offence because he thinks his submissive Asian wife is black! I'm black for Godsake! I know Sydney Anglicans read books about varying shades of grey but I think it would be wasted on people who can only function in categories of black and white!

Sydney Anglican Karin Martin reviews "Fifty Shades of Grey" and condemns it for promoting women's passivity and sexual submissiveness

Karin Martin has reviewed 'Fifty Shades of Grey'...and as a Sydney Anglican woman, criticises the sexual imbalance of the relationship portrayed in the book. Karin however, does not protest the promotion of the 'voluntary submission' of women, at a church, work and home level, within the Sydney Anglican diocese. Karin is a complementarian, who like other Sydney Anglican women believe that the male should lead when dancing... even when he has two left feet and needs some assistance!

I'm inclined to agree with Karin about how submission can be problematic and lead to:
... unhealthy relationships
... making popular the sort of female thinking that can lead to women making excuses for abusive  partners
... making the idea of female submission mainstream, when it belongs with fringe dwelling Sydney Anglicans
... encourages females to be the victims of males fantasies, where the female becomes incredibly passive and all acts are carried out on her. 
What was that Missy...did you ask if I have ever experienced  a bondage session?...Well if you count being tied up by Inguns...but I told Raincloud that my body may submit ...but my soul belongs to God... and he said that wasn't true submission...so he untied me and let me go.
Calam...is it true that  the voluntary submission  of women is actually a symptom of Sydney Anglican culture ...and it's historical male dominated influences...and not God?


Ennis... I thought that Karin would have been in favour of Sydney Anglican wives taking part in bondage sessions ...surely the husband's vow to protect her, is enough for her to submit and render herself helpless ...when her hands and feet are tied to the bedposts?
