Beware of Perverts! The Need to Excoriate Homosexuality

(6. A Universal Offence Forbidden to all Mankind!
Extracts:
Homosexuality is an offence against the Universal Laws of all Humanity ("Noachide Laws"):
http://www.myjewishlearning.com/article/the-noahide-laws/
Noahides are prohibited from engaging in six illicit sexual relationships: with one's mother, with one's father's wife, with another man's wife, with his sister from the same mother, in a male homosexual union, and with an animal as it says, 'Therefore shall a man leave his father'- this refers to his father's wife; 'and his mother' - refers to the mother; 'and cling to his wife' - and not another's wife; 'wife' - and not a homosexual union; 'and become one flesh' (Genesis 2:24) excluding animals.' (Maimonides, Laws of Kings, 9:5).
Homosexuality is also forbidden by the Torah (Leviticus 18:22). It is punishable by death (Leviticus 20:13).
Proverbs 25:
5 Separate the evil person from before the king
And his throne will be established in righteousness.
(7. Are Subconscious Inclinations (or even Semi-Conscious Ones) Pertinant?
Extracts:
... This would not be the first time that the Forces of Darkness have used what they presented as "research" to mislead the public in their war against Biblical Values.
A prime example is the Kinsley Report. ...
Illustrative Anecdote:
A light-weight drug addict in Israel with peripheral connections in the past to the criminal world was being threatened and terrorized by a criminal bigger than him.
He was seriously considering taking severe preemptive action.
This would have brought disaster on himself and on his family, not to mention the villain as well.
The drug addict was convinced however at the last minute, against his instincts and values, to go to the police.
The police proved sympathetic and efficient. They solved the problem.
One of the arguments that induced the person in action to take such a course went along the lines that the Police themselves were like a criminal gang, the biggest in existence. "Why not use more powerful official criminals to counter weaker unofficial ones?"
Deuteronomy 29:
29 The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law.
We need to do what God wants because that is what we are here for. This is also for our own good and for the good of they who come after us.

2. Month of Tevet (Tebet): Notes about the Tribe of Dan
The 30th and 31st of December, 2016, are the New Month Days of Tevet, 5777.
This according to mainstream (HaGra and HaArizal) opinion is the month of Dan.
Others (Midrash Peliah and the Rabad) attribute it to Gad.

The holy power of Dan reflects a spark of Mashiach. In the Zohar we are taught that the commander-in-chief of the army of Mashiach will come from the tribe of Dan.

The tribe of Tevet is Dan. Part of his inheritance is in the far north of Israel, certainly one of the coldest parts of the country. He was known as the "measeph l'chol hamachanot", the in-gatherer of all the tribes. Dan was the tribe that walked last in the procession as the Israelites journeyed through the desert, and he picked up the lost articles which the other tribes had left behind as they traveled, and returned them. Thus, he did a lot of returning of lost sparks to their source as he went on his way.

The tribe of this month is Dan. This is similar to the word Din which means judgment. That harsh energy of the soul brings about the "Evil Eye" and anger. Overcoming criticism and judgment of oneself and of others can bring about the highest levels of transformation. It is a transformation from the lowest creature of all - the snake - the symbol of the tribe of Dan, to the highest light of all - the light of Moshiach. [The numerical value of the word nachash (snake) is 358 which is the same as the value of the word Moshiach.] Why is this? The agenda of the primordial snake, also known as Satan, is to bring about the downfall of man. Judgment and criticism of oneself and of others that tampers with one's G-dly sense of self worth is one of the snake's tactics. Moshiach will reveal the highest levels of G-dliness in everything that exists, especially the G-dliness of our own selves - our essence.

The month of Tevet is the darkest time of the year. Its days are the shortest of the year and its nights the longest. The tribe associated with Tevet is the tribe of Dan. When the Children of Israel traveled and camped in the desert, they encircled the Holy Ark. The tribe of Dan was the most northerly encampment. The North is a dark cold place. The long nights of Tevet are even longer in the North. The Hebrew word for North - tzafon - is spelled the same as tzafun - which means hidden. The Talmud tells us that one of the names of the yetzer hara - the negative drive - is tzafuni (Succa 52).

3. Proverbs 26: 6-12. Beware of Fools and Foolishness
http://hebrewnations.com/articles/bible/proverbs/proverbs26.html
The following verses have the common theme of what being a fool, or dealing with one, means:
6 He cuts off his own feet and drinks violence
Who sends a message by the hand of a fool.
This is correct BUT the word transalted as "violence" can also mean contradiction as explained by Metsudat Tsion.
Someone who uses a fool as his emissary may defeat his won purpose.
7 Like the legs which are useless to the lame,
So is a proverb in the mouth of fools.
This is similar to the previous saying (26:6).
The word translated as "proverb" in Hebrew is "moshel" meaning more exactly "anecdote" but also connoting wise saying.
A fool uses an anecdote or wise saying in a way that is contradictory to its real meaning.
8 Like one who binds a stone in a sling,
So is he who gives honor to a fool.
9 Like a thorn which falls into the hand of a drunkard,
So is a proverb in the mouth of fools.
A thorn is a harmful thing that is liable to harm the person using it as well as others.
10 Like an archer who wounds everyone,
So is he who hires a fool or who hires those who pass by.
Alternate Translation based on the Hebrew:
# A quarrelsome person desecrates every thing ["kills everybody']. He hires a fool, he hires passersby.#
A person of contentious nature destroys everything around him. He has nobody to rely upon and must hire a fool or whoever is available.
OR
So too, is somebody who hires a fool or whoever passes by.
Additional explanations exist.
11 Like a dog that returns to its vomit
Is a fool who repeats his folly.
There is a saying,
"Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me."
In reality we may find ourselves making the same mistake several times over before we wake up.
12 Do you see a man wise in his own eyes?
There is more hope for a fool than for him.
We should always be willing to learn from others.
