Today’s Irish Examiner letters
Seán Daithí ÓChonaill wonders:
I’d say you’re some craic at parties, Frank.
He lifted that ‘living together for the purposes of sexual activity” from my Tinder profile >_<
Well, he has probably trawled Grindr, Tinder and every pornsite known to man – all under the guise or “research”.

Was he from the Fujian province of China, because gay marriage was allowed back in the day in that region apparently.
The putrid stench of hypocrisy pervades Frank O’Meara’s musings on the state extending marriage to same-sex couples. The manner in which he obsesses with sodomy not only reeks of sexual immaturity but they way he talks, one would think the vagina is an orifice of the utmost purity, sanctity and cleanliness. Something tells me, this luminary has not had much experience of human sexuality.
Frank “roll-on, do the Lord’s work, roll-off” O’Meara. Thank your stars you aint married to him.
Ah give over
Pretty impressive collection of fallacies there.
Phallacies rather. Frank O’Meara likes a good phallus. Sorry , couldn’t resist.
Perhaps we should document these ‘phallacies’ with pen and paper and send it to him.
About 20,000 drawings of knobs in the post should satisfy Frank.
“…it is a mortal sin for christians”. I take it that this ‘mortal’ is defined as lethal, causing or liable to cause death; fatal.
I know christians who are in gay marriages but their the death by divine lightning seems to be delayed somehow.
Mortal as opposed to venial or eternal. It has a specific definition. It’s one you can go to hell for but can repent and be forgiven, I think.
Nah, mortal sin’s the one you can’t get rid of, venial are the ones you can, mortal sin’s are ‘grave’ and are willingly committed in the knowledge that they’re sins.
Anything that isn’t grave, done in full knowledge and with full consent is venial.
Mind you it’s hard to keep track of magic stuff.
That Frank knows a lot about sodomy.
He is completely right, same sex marriage is civil only and not church based. No one is claiming otherwise.
If he wants to live in a theocratic state there are plenty of articles in the media this weekend discussing the joys of one such theocatic state. Ireland is not theocratic, it may have been moreso in the past but times change for the better. He should stop whining, live his good christian life, and stop worrying about who puts whose pee-pee in whose orifice
The only time you should consider someones sexuality, is in the moment where you want to have sex with them.

Another Albert Einstein quote that never was!
Poor Albert get’s awful stick.. like the other one about him not finishing his PhD –> what an idiot!
Did you know that he failed maths in school?
It’s very easy to be misquoted on the Internet
— Abraham Lincoln
If Frank simply sees gay people as walking sex acts, you can bet your bottom! dollar that it is more revelatory of Frank’s deep seated issues and “struggles”.
That and the fact, he is possibly not getting any…
May never have.
Here’s Frank railing against “one of the most obscene (in the true use of the word) methods of contraception ever invented by man” – condoms.
“Whenever governments ignore the laws of God and nature, disaster follows; and a condom culture is fast becoming a disaster.”

Is this guy some sort of nutty legend of the Examiner letters pages?
Wow… that’s super special!
Looks like he has a direct view of a church, on streetview. Explains a lot.
Jobs, not condoms!!!
One of the great things about the succesful referendum is you can now safely ignore stuff like this.
“The state has no power to impart God’s blessing”, – I never really considered that. You live and you learn.
Who do they think they are anyway? Father Brendan Smith?
I’ll pass on that blessing, ta.
There will come, hopefully, a time when all these creatures have died out leaving the rest of us to just get on with our lives.
Ah no. Then we’ll miss seeing them squirm about in impotent rage as they realise their ignorant opinions count for nothing any more.

His 1st point on the definition of marriage doesn’t seem to rule out same sex marriage as it doesn’t mention who’s doing the giving and taking. There’s nothing there to say a man can’t take another man as husband nor a woman another woman as wife.
Sure as long as he’s fighting a battle he’s already lost he’s safely ignored.
Whatever about “great craic” at parties, he’s late to this one – too busy foaming at the mouth, by the looks of the letter!
I like that his ‘research’ starts and ends with what the RCC told him. Is he a creationist too?
Knob end.
Can someone start posting as god here and give these people some clarifications? There’s a guy doing it in twitter extremely well (@TheTweetOfGod).
ABM left in disgust. Its bin done.
But ABM thought god was conservative. I am sure she is rather liberal and her ideas should be voiced here.
All factually accurate, what’s the problem?
Your too late mate. Argument doesn’t matter anymore.
Lols
Only it’s not the Civil Union Act…. It’s the Marriage Act 2015….
It’s religion and sanctimony that came late to the whole marriage malarkey,,,,,
Seeing as we are sticking to what was done by the good guys in the Bible I guess Frank will be cool out with people marrying their half-sister / half-brother. You know, like Abraham in the Bible did.
Marriage was around in pre-Christian times and so reverting to the historical Catholic / Christian version only shows that Frank is only willing to listen to some of the truth when he speaks of the historical meaning that he says was “always” there. Because clearly, it was NOT always there.
Anyway, his whole arguement is that he says it doesn’t matter what these people do because it will never be a “marriage” recognised by the version of marriage he subscribes to which is the RCC “sacrament of marriage” which no one wants anyway.
So what’s his beef? He’s of the belief that Christianity ‘owns’ marriage…… well he can fupp off with that bit of stupidity for starters and stop interfering in other peoples marriage outside the RCC version.
Frank’s just an imbecile if he thinks the RCC owns “marriage”, which he clearly does think.
Fortunately we don’t need to pretend to be polite and rationally argue this kind of nonsense anymore :)
Congrats to all the couples who can get married from today!
Yep! Long last the new normal!

Unless it is sodomy
Poor old Frank, he’s got a lot of issues.
Tissues, stained tissues
Lesbos you say? Get me on a flight there right away!
I thought they came from Lesbania?
On dykes?
He also had a lot to say regarding rape and why the girls were at fault.
actually he has sent in loads of very strange letters.
he is Ireland’s answer to the West Baptist Church
http://www.independent.ie/opinion/letters/prayer-only-hope-26594510.html
Crikey, his poor neighbours. What are the chances he is a virgin? Pretty high, I’d say.
I guess it’s… good to be aware… that these people exist?
I mean the alternative of maybe not publishing this guy’s brain-foam is just an appalling vista of self-censorship.
Annie and Caroline are the same person, me thinks.
“Me thinks”, why Mrs. Hudson tis the very calling card of the mentally subfunctional. What possessed you to admit him?
I’d say Frank’s weekly trips to confession are an eye opener. Imparting all those impure thoughts about sodomisers and provocatively dressed girls to de preesht? He must walk around in a constant state of arousal.
Oh baby; you’re turning me on
Jay-fupping-sus… Is he trolling Ireland?
Ah right, the man’s a loon. Fair enough.
And his letter obsessing about “sodomy” is one of his less deranged ones. As I say, I pity the poor fool’s neighbours.
well, fpup that.
I wonder if all these Christians knew that Oral Sex is classed as sodomy, would they be as quick to condemn it.
So just talking about sex is sodomy…jaysus.
The sins of Sodom are widely misunderstood. They were sins of orgies, rape and being uncharitable and abusive to strangers not homosexual sex. Loving sexual union is not a sin and it is incorrect to use the term sodomite to refer to a gay person.
It is funny. It a story about God destroying a two city’s because the men in it wanted to rape a couple of angels, and then allowing one man to leave so he could impregnate his daughters.
and the moral of the story is that gays are wrong.
bit of a leap if you ask me.
Hold on, leave orgies alone. Nothing wrong with hanky panky in numbers!
Whatever you’re into man, just don’t make me legislate for it.
There’s very little chat about constitutional democracy or popular sovereignty in the Bible, so I don’t know where Frank is getting the notion that it’s a mortal sin to vote for someone who supports marriage equality. Unless, that is, he pulled it out of his arse.
I was all for it Until he told me it was a mortal sin.
whats one of those anyway?
Does Frank believe anyone quakes in fear at being found in a state of mortal sin any more? The language of fear & damnation is quaint …mad to think it once held real power
Just read Franks other little dribblings….he’s a ray of sunshine, so he is…..
I heard somebody refer to it as “Anus Marriage” recently.
I tried work a similar title into my wedding vows this summer. Wife wouldn’t let it through.

Forty years in moral decline
CONCERNING the homily at Mass in these times, it may be helpful to read the following extract from the monk Dom Chautard’s The Soul of the Apostolate: “An apostle who is accustomed to the interior life based on Our Lord’s words ‘Let him deny himself’ will be fully capable of producing in others the self-denial that is the foundation of all moral perfection. But one who only lags behind Our Lord in carrying The Cross will be incapable of such a result. Since he himself is such a coward when it comes to imitating Christ crucified, how will he ever preach to his people the holy war against the passions — the war in which Our Lord sounded the rallying call for us all? ”Only an apostle who is disinterested, humble and chaste can lead souls on into battle against the ever-growing forces of greed, ambition and impurity.” At the beginning of this century Our Lady appeared at Fatima asking Catholics to say the Rosary as the best way to develop the interior life in these days and thereby save their souls from hell. Men who say the Rosary regularly will never be overcome by depression. Women and girls who say the Rosary every day will learn that true beauty involves wearing feminine attire and covering the body from the neck to below the knees. They will not try to imitate the ways of men and be obsessed with challenging them for an artificial equality. They will stand firm against the Anti-Christ forces in all aspects of the media. They will reject those politicians who make laws against the law of God. A false version of Christ has been put about for nigh-on 40 years, with a lopsided message implying that all will be saved. Preaching on sin and the need for Confession has been, in general, obscured and played down.

Hell is awaiting users of the ‘pill’
RTE gave one of its ‘values free’ newscasts recently, with Brian O’Connell reporting from London on new research on the effects of the contraceptive pill on millions of British women ten years after cessation of its use. It was supposed to reassure them.
Any woman who uses artificial contraception of any kind interrupts the transmission of human life.
For anybody this is a serious mortal sin. It also has frightful effects on the people who do it, cutting them off from the grace of God and destroying their natures in selfishness and vice.
For a Catholic to use artificial contraception within marriage is putting that marriage at serious risk. Hell is a big place and is well able to contain millions. For a Catholic to use artificial contraception and to go unconfessed to receive Holy Communion is to ‘drink damnation to him/herself’. It is because priests are not saying these things that I have to write this letter.
Those in education who permit people teaching ‘safe sex’ into classrooms will be judged by God with a millstone round their necks into the depths of Hell.

Liberals causing a social breakdown
OVER the last four decades the Irish politicians have so arranged both the civil laws and the laws of protocol applying to themselves that the only corruption for which they can be held accountable involves money. In all other respects, their private lives are their own business.
This evolved from a particularly slick political sleight of hand which at the time of the contraceptives controversy claimed that
…
Oh Frank O’Meara, I want to write to you and tell you it is not self-denial that is the foundation of all moral perfection, it is self-acceptance. Are you the one who lags behind Christ? Thank you for your reference of Dom Chautard. I urge you to refelct on the meanings of “disinterested, humble and chaste”. I also recognise that I am referring to a letter writen in 1998. I wouldn’t dream of telling you what I was doing in ’98
There is a humorous illustrated coffee-table book of 419 scams (aka the Nigerian Prince scam); someone should do an illustrated book of this guy’s letters:
As a lay Catholic, I have several issues with RTÉ’s programmes on the occult.
The contacting of spirits from the dead was condemned as mortally sinful by a decree of the Holy Office issued on June 25, 1840. All attempts to contact the dead, or spirits, and participation in seances, using mediums, boards, tables, or wireless devices, are forbidden by Catholic teaching under pain of mortal sin.
The facts around contacts with spirits or the dead are as follows:
All the spirits contacted in these ways are from the host of fallen angels who forfeited eternal life; with their fall, they became demons or fiends.
It is not possible to contact a dead person by occult means, because such people are either in heaven or hell, and are not contactable. However, evil spirits can stand in for human beings and pretend to be relatives or friends, etc.
The English author, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who was a widely recognised medium, abandoned the practice when he discovered that the contacted spirits were incapable of ever telling the truth.

(Unfortunately they are taking their responses underground…)
It is apparent that dear old Frank is from a certain generation of Irish. I have no doubt that this ideology was bet into him so that he feared for his very survival. I’d like to know his family history. However he is not entirely wrong. It just feels like a strangulated way of communication. Much better if he’s reading this to also look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral_theory_%28Ken_Wilber%29
i’d love to know what, or who frank keeps in his basement.
