"By "authoritarianism" he means his host nation."

No he means the legally-enforced (i.e. authoritarian) socially conservative culture that existed in the years leading up to this interview. Remember when swearing was such a big deal, gay people didn't have equal rights, we were teaching creationism in schools, etc.?

Edit: Definitely should have also mentioned the same culture would try to outlaw pornography. Eventually those effort failed on 1st amendment grounds, but that didn't stop the conservatives from trying.

Call me a German person from World War II, but I think there may be a middle ground where children are taught heredity instead of how to put stuff up their butt.

instead of how to put stuff up their butt.

Are you against sex education generally, or just when it's focused on gay people?

Children should be taught the biological reality of sex and reproduction.

They should learn the cold facts about the existence of individuals carrying incurable diseases in their orifices, without being exposed to shocking imagery, softcore banana porn or worse.

They should probably read the studies that show that sex with multiple individuals results in unhappy non-reproductive lifestyles down the road.

Homosexual intercourse isn’t even sex to begin with.

    No, it's fine the way it is. Most gays don't have human souls.

    We were not really teaching creationism in school, though we were teaching ethics and Christians morality. Something that has been merely reduced to church going.

    And it doesn't look like a generation without Christian ethics and morality is any better, right? I wonder whose influence... Nevermind.

    Buuuuuuuut Judeo-Christian morality.

    The problem is the modern Jew is NOT the biblical Jews. That is all that needs to be said.

    Agreed.
