Matthew Stuckey here and I want to make a quick video just showing you a link
between being obsessed with animals and being a sexual pervert or deviant. And
there's actually a link that we can find both biblically, logically, and in society
between someone who is overly obsessed with animals and then also being a
sexual pervert. These things actually go hand in hand. And so when you think to
the Bible, to the book of 1st Samuel, and you think about the Philistines, the God
they were worshiping was Dagon. And Dagon was said to be a fish God. So the
God they were worshiping was an animal God. Now many pagan societies have had
animal gods that they have worshiped, but oftentimes they also have just human
gods that they worship, just normal gods, not animal gods. But the Philistines had
Dagon which was a fish God. And so in 1st Samuel chapter 6 verses 4 and 5, this is
what it says, "...then said they, What shall be the trespass offering which we shall
return to him? They answered, Five golden emerods and five golden mice." So first we
see them worshiping a fish God and then they said, you know what, we're in trouble.
You know, the gods are angry with us. We've got to make them happy. We've got
to get forgiveness. So what are we gonna do as an offering or as a gift? Give them
five golden emerods and five golden mice. So you see an obsession with animals
there and then five golden emerods, that's just perversion. That's not
even something that would come into a normal person's mind. Then in verse five
it says, "...wherefore ye shall make images of your emerods and images of your mice
that mar the land." And so we're seeing a link between being obsessed with animals
and then being sexual perverts. I mean this is not something that would come
into your mind. You say, well we got to make God happy. We got to appease him. We
got to make an offering. So let's make an offering of emerods and mice. It's like,
what kind of a person would even think of something like that? And if you
remember King Saul, you know, before he committed suicide, his armor-bearer, he
actually asked to kill him, you know. And the reason why he asked his armor-bearer
to kill him is he was worried that the Philistines would come and abuse him. What
it says in 1 Samuel 31 verse 4 is this, "...lest these uncircumcised come and thrust
me through and abuse me." What is he talking about when he says abuse me? Well
he's talking about being sexually defiled because he understood that the
Philistines were, you know, worshiping these animal gods and that they were
perverts. They were weirdos. They were freaks. And, you know, a normal guy would
rather just die than be, you know, sexually molested and then killed. And so
Saul says, I'll just, you know, kill my... just ask you to kill me. And if he
wouldn't kill him, then he actually ended up killing himself. Now obviously we know
King Saul was a believer. He's in heaven because it is eternal life, whether it's
the Old Testament or New Testament. But he chooses to end his life
because he's afraid of being abused. So we're seeing a link between, you know,
worshiping, you know, a fish god, you know, having an over obsession with mice. And
then we also see that, you know, they take images of their emerods. And then, you
know, Saul is worried about being physically molested by these Philistines.
And so we're seeing a link between animal obsession and sexual perversion.
And you say, well, maybe that's a coincidence. Maybe that's just this
situation. Is this something that really goes on in today's world? Well, if you
think about countries around the world and religions around the world that have
an over obsession with animals and that worship animals and lift them up, you're
gonna think of Hinduism and India. And so those are... that's the country, India,
which also has other similar religions that kind of, you know, evolved out of
that same sort of belief system. And then you have the country of India. So
Hinduism and India. And so when you see this, you know, there's no question that
Hinduism and India, they worship a lot of animals. One of their big animals that
they worship is Ganesh, you know, the elephant god. And so Ganesh is one of
their top five or ten gods that they worship. And it's a god that has an
elephant head. And so, you know, there's an obsession with animals right
there. And, you know, when it comes to an India, they worship the elephant because
he's a very powerful animal and they end up worshipping it. And so then you also
see that they have the big rat temple in India, which is a big thing where
basically the rats are supposed to be basically like gods. And there's also
an obsession and a worship in some parts with monkeys. And, you know, of course cows
is the most obvious example where they worship cows. And they worship cows
because the cows provide, you know, nourishment with all of their milk. And
they used to actually eat cows in India. That's, you know, pretty much changed as
the religion has changed quite a bit. But, you know, the cows are very valuable
providing milk and meat. And so they ended up worshipping the cow. And they
worship the cow today. So you see an over obsession with animals. And you say, okay,
I see that in India and Hinduism, but is there sexual perversion as well? Well, you
know, just a couple years ago, the Thompson Reuters Foundation voted India
the most dangerous country in the world for women. And the reason why it's voted
dangerous for women is primarily due to rape. That obviously includes murder and
other stuff like that. But primarily it's it's due to rape. And, you know, India is
said to be the number one country in the world. It's known as the rape capital
of the world to a lot of people. Now, rape statistics are very difficult to track
because, depending on where you live, they don't necessarily, you know, process
complaints as much as in other areas. And in India with a caste system, you know, if
you're of a lower caste, you're very unlikely to be able to win a case. So
many people, when stuff like this happens, they just allow it to be passed over. And
they don't do anything about it. And depending on what country you are, they
might be tough on crime. They might not. So it's hard to get accurate statistics.
But it's known as the rape capital of the world to a lot of people. It's also
said to be the number one country in the world for child trafficking. And so
obviously with child trafficking, there is sexual perversion attached to that.
And, you know, they've got the Devadasi tradition, which I might be pronouncing
incorrectly. But we're basically women, before they hit puberty, are dedicated to
this goddess. And they're basically a sex slave. And, you know, to any guys that
would want a part of them. And it's kind of morphed into more prostitution. But
they used to be just kind of these provocative dancers at a very young age.
And it's kind of morphed into guys cross-dressing and being part of this
Devadasi tradition as well. Just these sex slaves. So real perversion. And, you
know, even in the Hindu temples, you know, you see the statues and in parts of
India where they have just bestiality in and other just sexual perversion. And
just even in the temples. Like if you were to walk in. I've never been in a
Hindu temple. But as it's said, you know, that they have these graphic perversion
on the sides of the temples. And so there's no question that in India, you
know, you do see an obsession with animals. But there's also sexual
perversion as well with this religion of Hinduism. And it's said that, you know, sex
is something that's considered divine in Hinduism. And so just really perverted
thoughts. And what you're seeing is an obsession with animals. And you're also
seeing sexual perversion. And so what can we take away from this as a Bible
Believing Christian? Well, what we can take away as Christians is that you
ought to be very careful with people that are overly obsessed with animals.
Now I'm not saying there's anything wrong with having a pet or loving your
animal. But what I'm saying is if you run into someone who's just obsessed with
animals, someone who just elevates animals to the level of humans, those are
the people that are probably going to lower the value of humans to the level
of animals. And it makes sense that if you elevate animals to a certain level,
then you're going to lower the value of actual humans. So look, you ought to be
very careful with people that are just so obsessed with animals. And they look
at them like they're humans as well. Those are the people that might actually
be sexual perverts. Thank you and God bless.
