Ramsey spoke with GQ MagazineShe revealed that the show would feature a multitude of acts of grave depravity in the future.

She stated to the outlet “I know people will think what they want to think. But they’re gonna have to get used to it. If you don’t want to watch the show because it has gay storylines, because it has a trans character, that’s on you, and you’re missing out.”

“It isn’t gonna make me afraid. I think that comes from a place of defiance,” She continued.

Ramsey’s comments come after the show’s third episode debuted and was heavily criticized. Synthetic Man on YouTube described the episode this way: Brokeback Mountain.

He explained, “We got 15 minutes of two middle-aged gay dudes falling in love and there’s an extended kissing scene. And they even get married. It is just the weirdest, bizarre, out of left field s**t that is completely irrelevant to the overall plot.”

As for Ramsey’s claim that you are missing out, it’s clearly not anything good that you are missing out on. You actively avoid sin, and encourage its proliferation.

The Catechism for the Catholic Church notes, “Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that ‘homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered. They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.”

In fact The Catechism affirms this as well. Sodomy is one of those sins that makes you cry to heaven. “The catechetical tradition also recalls that there are ‘sins that cry to heaven’: the blood of Abel, the sin of the Sodomites, the cry of the people oppressed in Egypt, the cry of the foreigner, the widow, and the orphan, injustice to the wage earner.”

Reiterating, you are actually avoiding sinful behavior and its proliferation by not watching this show. This is actively rejecting the evil the show is trying perpetuate.

St. Pope John Paul II in his Message for the 29th World Communications Day Also, “As happens with all the media of social communication, the cinema, as well as having the power and the great merit of contributing to the cultural and human growth of the individual, can oppress freedom—particularly of the most weak—when it distorts the truth and when it presents itself as the mirror of negative types of behavior, using scenes of violence and sex offensive to human dignity and ‘tending to excite violent emotions to stimulate the attention’ of the viewer.”

“The attitude of those who irresponsibly bring about degrading imitative behavior whose harmful effects can be read about each day in the pages of the newspapers cannot be defined as free artistic expression. As the Gospel reminds us, only in the Truth are we made free,” he declared.

2004 would see the declaration of St. Pope John Paul II. “People grow or diminish in moral stature by the words which they speak and the messages which they choose to hear. Consequently, wisdom and
discernment in the use of the media are particularly called for on the part of communications professionals, parents and educators, for their decisions greatly affect children and young people for whom they are responsible, and who are ultimately the future of society.”

Later, he added: “It is not so easy to resist commercial pressures or the demands of conformity to secular ideologies, but that is what responsible communicators must do. The stakes are high, since every attack on the fundamental value of the family is an attack on the true good of humanity.”
