Weirdos Under God

OK. I know you've all heard of the Rev. Phelps. He is the reverend who for years has taken the members of his church to protest at the funerals of gay people and soldiers. His church members are currenty made up of different generations of his family members. The reason they protest all of these funerals and not others is because they feel like God hates homosexuals and that God hates America because it embraces homosexuals. Thanks to You Tube we can all watch videos of these wackos at work.



They usually use Leviticus 18:22 as their basis for the belief that God hates gays. That verse says something like 'Thou shalt not lie with a man as one does with a woman. That is detestible.' I think that homosexuals generally do follow that verse as they definitely don't lie with a man in the same way as they do with a woman. The odd thing is that the verse is from the old testament which was basically made not applicable to present day Christians after Jesus dying on the cross for everyone's sins among other things Jesus told us. I would be willing to bet you that these people and others like them commit the breaking of many of the laws in the bible. I know multiple Christians for instance who eat pork and others who do not hesitate to sleep in the same house and even the same bed as their husbands while on their periods. Women who cut their hair and leave it uncovered, people with tatoos, showing skin where it isn't appropriate. The list goes on but basically my point is that if you choose to follow one of the old testament laws you must follow all of them in order for anyone to take you seriously. These kooks are just that kooks. I really wish that we could predict the when the death of any one of these people would die so that we could go to their funerals and have a party or protest it with signs about how God hates people who break whatever rule in Leviticus that we choose. I would take time off work to go to that party and then organize protests or parties outside the house where these people live.

Scientists Have Reversed Homosexuality in Sheep

Ok for those of you who are not like me and did not grow up in a farming community about 1 in 10 (10%) rams (male sheep) has the urge to mount other rams as opposed to ewes (female sheep). In the farming world this is bad because you make less money with these sheep who won't actually reproduce. The more animals you have in your herd that reproduce the more you can sell the more money you make and so on. Because of this study farmers everywhere can make more money and because of this study homosexuals are outraged. They are protesting the sheep's right to be gay if it wants. I am in the middle of this little science experiment because I am gay and from a family of farmers. Here is my point of view. The day a sheep can choose whether or not it wants to be gay is when it meets the following requirements: 1-it becomes human; 2-it pays the bills; 3-it votes etc. You get the point. Sheep aren't human people get over it. They don't have the choices that we do because they can't make decisions. If anything, this study is good it shows that an animal without the brain power to make choices naturally likes the same sex. The place you need to put your protest is when they start trying to allow this type of hormone treatment to be done on humans before those humans are adults and can make their own choices. Do not think that the farming industry (one of the biggest in this country) will be tolerant toward saving gay sheep at the expense of their already small pocket books. Please people try to keep your animal rights protests to physical cruelty issues and let farmers make their money until a sheep walks up to you and tells you it pays taxes and deserves some rights, And in the mean time keep up the good work fighting for Human Gay Rights and Equality.

Rosie O'Donnell's Racist Mocking of the Chinese Language

Rosie has offended the Chinese and other asian ethnic groups with her imitation of the Chinese language. She never ceases to amaze me. When she was all overly sensitive about the whole Clay Aiken/Kelly Ripa thing and accused Kelly of being homophobic with her comments. First of all you can't accuse someone of being homophobic of someone who hasn't said they're a homo. If you are a homo and you're stuck in the closet out of fear of what it will do to your career or your family relationships or whatever aren't you a litte homophobic yourself? I think it's called self hatred or something like that isn't it Rosie? She has always driven me nuts. She ranted and raved about doing away with guns all together and all the while her armed body guard stood close by just in case of emergency. She yapped and yapped on her show about being in love with Tom Cruise and then when it was about to come out that she was a homo she decides to out herself and retire. Making the cowardly move of doing it after she had already had a successful career as opposed to just being honest from the beginning or being like Clay Aiken is now and refusing to address the issue because it isn't relevant. Finally she ends up on The View spouting off about Kelly Ripa being a homophobe when (take it from this homo) it is clear she is being overly sensitive. Then she acts like an insensitive racist ass on The View and has the nerve to tell people to lighten up. Lighten up!?! This coming from someone who was wound tight about a statement she took as homophobic about a guy who hasn't even said whether or not he's gay. This lady contradicts herself all of the time and I wish she was not one of the weirdos who represents the gay population publicly to the world. No wonder they hate us with all the Rosies and the Ted Haggards and the Governor McGreeveys etc. running around making idiotic mistakes under public scrutiny. Whatever happened to integrity no matter who you are? Even theives have a moral code within their own ranks. Homos unite and oust this wacko from her throne.



I do have to say however that I met her partner one time and she was really nice.

Henry Rollins Video Clip

This is somewhat of a spoken word piece or speach on how America is a pseudo free country and we should fight for our freedom. I don't really know who Henry Rollins is but apparently he has a show that airs on the Independent Film Channel on cable TV. I like what he has to say in this clip and I agree with it. I don't know what his show is about but with the emotion he sends out in this particular piece I can only assume it is quite a resistant and rebellious show. Fight against the man and the machine. Don't let anyone keep you down and all that sort of stuff.

Religion For A Captive Audience, Paid For By Taxes

Ok this is the reason that I think everyone who is not 100% represented by the taxes they pay should go out and seek reimbursement for that which we don't have access to. If you aren't a Christian but your taxes paid for something which involves Christianity then go out and find yourself a church that will give you something. Go to a church that takes part in the Angel Food Network for instance. You can go to that church and sign up to pay a small fee somewhere around $25 and then you get huge amounts of free food. Fill your refridgerator and freezer once a month with free food paid for by those who receive your money in the first place. Take your money back. Wouldn't you do that if you made an investment and it wasn't as successful as you had hoped? You would stop investing in that thing if it was a failure so you should do the same for your tax money which has failed you. Seek out all that you can and take it back for yourself. If you pay taxes for things which support heterosexuals but you aren't a heterosexuals then take it back by going to find some place supported by government money and taking advantage of whatever the place offers whether you need it or not. Frankly, I'm sick of paying for spousal benefits for police officer, Firemen and Military people who are married when I don't get any of those benefits for my own spouse. I fought for my country but I don't get the same money as others do for their duties. Don't let pride stand in the way of you getting free food or any other free stuff. Why? Because it's not free stuff it is yours that you have already paid for. If you don't need it then donate the food and stuff to some organization that will help people like you. Chris Kids for instance is just one organizations which helps gay and other youth who risk being homeless because of their families abandoning them. Youth Pride also helps gay youth. Donate whatever you get back to an organization which supports your religion. Are you Pagan or Wiccan then give money to Spiral Scouts so that other little Pagans and Wiccans can grow up with the same money that the government gives to Christianity. Take back that which is yours. I don't need free food either I have plenty of money with which to buy my own at the regular price but if I paid for it I'm taking it and not leaving it in the store and just walking out. I'm going to the Angel Food Network and getting my food. I don't eat beef and all sorts of other foods. Who cares? If the Angel Food Network gives those things to me what is to stop me from cooking up a big beef steak for the homeless guy down the street who happens to be just like me minus the shelter and clothes. Anyway you get my point now hurry up and go take it back. Add one word to the "Pay it Forward" Movement so that it becomes "Pay It Forward Equally".

Conservative Jews Allow Gay Rabbis And Unions

"The highest legal body in conservative Judaism, the centrist movement in worldwide Jewry, voted yesterday to allow the ordination of gay rabbis and the celebration of same-sex commitment ceremonies...The decision, which followed years of debate, was denounced by traditionalists in the movement as an indication that Conservative Judaism had abandoned its commitment to adhere to Jewish law, but celebrated by others as a long-awaited move toward full equality for gay people...

Dick Cheney's Daughter Is Expecting A Baby

Cheney's daughter is expecting a baby with her partner of 15 years due some time in the spring. The Dick and his wife are reportedly looking forward to the baby's arrival as it will make the 6th grandchild. Of course all the wackos are using the issue as a point of controversy as opposed to just getting over it and letting the family live their lives. Maybe if people would mind their own business and not harrass the Dick he wouldn't have such a complex about his lesbian daughter and all the gay people in the world. Kudos to him though in recognizing it as a relationship and accepting the results of it as opposed to my own father who thinks it is a phase I've been going through for the last 25 years. He thinks I should move home to BFE Oklahoma and he said I could travel to a city 3 hours away on the weekend to do my gay thing. Little does he know the gay thing includes all the activities of daily life not just screwing whores on the weekend.

Are You Gay Or Is It Just A Mancrush?

Some straight guys have man crushes. A man crush is where you love a guy with all your heart but not in an intimate way. Does your husband have a thing for Clint Eastwood or The Rock? That is a guy crush. Does your boyfriend have one guy friend that knows just a little too much about him or that you wonder whether or not you should look up what "The DownLo" is? This is the explanation. It is simply a crush. Your husband is not gay. Everything will be fine. (Maybe you should follow him for a week or so just to be sure though)

Lesbian Couple Married in Massachusetts Files For Divorce In Rhode Island

Lesbian couple files for divorce in Rhode Island creating a confusing situation for the court system there. If they decide it is in their jurisdiction will they be recognizing the marriage? This is the conundrum in the Rhode Island court system. Massachusetts became the only state to allow same sex marriages when the supreme court ruled it was unconstitutional to ban it. The risk for Rhode Island is that if they decide to try the case in their state they are basically recognizing same sex marriage in their state.

Kim Coco Iwamoto Becomes Hawaii's Highest Elected Transgendered Official

Congratulations to Kim Coco Iwamoto!!!! This is great the people of Hawaii take care of "their own" regardless of gender or sexual orientation and I think this is great. Too bad the rest of us don't do the same. Unfortunately the rest of the country seems to think that "their own" is one small thing about who "their own" is. In Hawaii it seems their own is simply human. The rest of the country suffers from a lack of unity. Maybe we should all be stranded on a series of Islands forced to make it on our own for years and years until we finally end up recognized for our greatness by some greedy white people and then become a state and end up being one of the most successful tourist/money making spots in our country while still staying true to our culture and beliefs and thanking God that there is a shit load of water separating us from the ignoramous money hungry bastards whose mentality causes them to separate themselves into groups over tiny meaningless crap that doesn't even effect them on a direct level. Maybe if that happened to us we'd stop separating "our own" down to the tiniest of degrees of similarities and in turn causing rifts between every frickin person on earth. I am venturing to guess that Hawaii never motivated a terrorist to take them out. Hawaii is a great example of how things turn out when we give homosexuals and transgendered people equal rights. For example when you compare the violent crime rates of all the states Hawaii always falls within the top 14 or 15. (On a weird tangent they are usually in the top 5 or 6 for car theft which seems weird - I mean where do you hide a stolen car when you're on an island?) They are also in the bottom 20 or 21 for sex offenders each year.

Former New Jersey Gov. McGreevey Details Life as Closeted Gay Man in His New Book

This guy is exploiting his situation by writing a book about it and making money off of it. I hate this kind of crap. People like this guy and Ted Haggard get to have their cake and eat it too while the rest of us are stuck living our lives out of the closet and dealing with the every day crap that the various ignorant people in the world dish out. Part of the problem is that people aren't used to gay people yet. That is because a large part of us have not been out of the closet for years and years into history. Being gay is not as big a deal as everyone tries to make it out to be. Gay people live thier lives the same as straight ones. They go to grade school, high school, college. They love their parents. They try to do good in school and to be good citizens. They have jobs and make money. They go home to families and cook dinner and clean their houses. They pay taxes (some of which only benefit heterosexuals and are never used by homosexuals at all). They love their children and their partners and they strive to stay together for life even when it doesn't work. The problem is that the heterosexuals of the world don't see any of this. They see closeted men who ruin their families like McGreevey and Haggard. They see closeted women who choose to make their millions and come out of the closet after years of pseudo crushes on Tom Cruise like Rosie. If more of these public figures would just be themselves then maybe less of the world would be confused or jaded by their images and the damage they cause by being in the closet.

New York City to Ease ID Changes for Transgender Residents

New York City is thinking of changing the way they go about birth certificate changes for transgender residents. The city currently allows birth certificate changes but only to omit the gender for those with proof of having had the surgery. Now they are going to actually change the gender on the licence. The city currently does a dozen or so changes each year. The reason they are considering changing the actual gender is because of the increased security since 9/11 as well as harrassment from police etc. and job security. The issue is one of safety for the people who are transgender. I think it is too bad that any one at all has to fear from their safety from the authorities whose job it is to protect us, but unfortunately that is not the case. In this country you are free as long as you are within whatever the Prez thinks is right. After that you could be put in custody without cause, you may have an FBI file, you can beat a guy on video and get away with it as long as you're a police officer. The list goes on and in the end you really aren't as safe as you think you are. I wish I could change my gender on my ID so that I could get a pay increase. (Just Joking!! - But not about the pay increase)

Houston Company "Sets the Landscape" for Bigotry

A Houston landscaping company refuses to accept business from a lesbian couple. The Houston couple was accepting bids from multiple landscaping companies when they received an email from Garden Guy stating "I need to tell you that we cannot meet with you because we choose not to work for homosexuals." After receiving the message they forwarded it to 200 of their friends and a "landslide" occurred. People sent both hate and love messages to the landscaping company. I have to say that if I were the gay couple I would have been thankful for the information. Who wants to be stuck around people who hate you? Small businesses have the option to refuse service to anyone and there is not necessarily anything wrong with that. I am a small business owner myself and I have refused to give service to multiple people for reasons ranging from their house being too messy for me to be able to stand to them being racist. If I want to make less money in order to have more peace of mind that is what I will do. My problem with these people is that they say they have become "accidental crusaders for Christ." People all day long say things about homosexuals without knowing really what the bible says about homosexuality. Of course I have to also say that it is not helpful for the rest of us as homosexuals when these bigots received hate mail threats against their lives and their childrens lives. Those who sent them hate mail which lacked any sort of tact and intelligence just sent home the message that there are idiots in every rung of society. And I agree with an association of professional landscapers having policies against non-discrimination. I feel like if you want to be a member of a particular professional association then you should be required to follow their policies in order to obtain membership with the association in the first place. People should have equal rights no matter who they are and one of those rights is to refuse service to whomever they choose. It's just unfortunate that they have that privilege while people like us have to fight the government for our own rights.

My Vent about Ousted Evangelist Ted Haggard

Rev. Ted Haggard confessed to his followers saying he was a deceiver and a liar who had given in to his dark side. This type of guy is why the rest of the world sees gay people as only interested in sex. There is a stereotype of homosexuals being a group of sex crazed party animals with no morals. If people who were actually gay like this "bone smoker" would just live their lives as the person they were then we may not have such an issue. This type of crap is the reason why people can't see gay relationships as just that, a "relationship". Because closeted bone heads like this guy end up creating some sort of huge issue when they are forced out of the closet by someone who has irrefutable evidence of them being an immoral bone smoking drug addict who pays for sex, the rest of us have to pay. The reason this guy fought so hard against gay marriage is because he couldn't imagine someone gay actually being in a relationship as opposed to just bending over for some prostitute massage therapist. In reality we homos actually do have relationships. We save ourselves for marriage (or some version of it), we live together, raise children, pay bills blah-blah-blah just like breeders do. I hope that all of the bone smokin prostitute chasers are forced out of the closet soon so that we can just live our lives and get on with it. I sure do hope I don't have to flip chanels to find his wife crying her mascara off later on this week.

I'm done with my dad

So last night I was talking to my dad and I asked him about a little foster kid he used to have at his house after my brother and I had moved out. He told me she was a senior in high school and that she was to use his word "loose" I mentioned to him that where she moved the educational system was one of the lowest in the nation and so his response to that was "yeah she's been getting hit on by the blacks and she's liking it" I had no idea what to say to that. It was as if he thought that her being loose and the educational system being low can be blamed on "the blacks". I am amazed that he is this ignorant and I am amazed that he has the balls to treat me like that and then expect that I am supposed to be a well behaved little daughter. He is determined to input his opinion into my life in attempt to get me to change. He knows that I date black women and so he constantly feels the need to say the worst of things about black people. This is not the first time he has done something like this as a matter of fact he does this every time I talk to him and many times he is much more blunt and direct. I have gotten to the point where I am tired of it. I haven't decided yet but after 13+ years of him saying racist, homophobic things to me without regard to my feelings as if the displeasure of it will make me become the person he thinks I should be I am considering ceasing communication with him all together and just sending him a letter letting him know why. It has become too much drama to speak to him and listen each time to him say things about his dis-satisfaction with my life. It's as if he thinks the world revolves around him and that my entire purpose is to be what he wants me to be. Little does he know I am fine with who I am and I have no desire to change aside from natural maturation. I do not care to be constantly bombarded with what he thinks of my life or what he thinks I should do with it any more than he wants me to let him know what changes he should make in his. That is not either of our places as we are both adults who can take care of making our own decisions. The only time it should be of concern is if one or the other of us physically effects someone else in a negative and non consenting manner. It's not official but I have pretty much decided to cut him off-send him a letter explaining the decision-and let him know that I am only interested in a parent/child relationship with him where he accepts the fact that I am not going to change, that I know how he feels so he doesn't have to keep repeating it and therefore we can have a normal relationship where we simply have conversation about life without the abusive and condescending language. I hope that one day he matures as a parent so that we can both be grown together. A good parent matures in the relationship along with the child but occasionally there is a parent here or there who cannot accept the fact that their children have moved on and started their own life and tries to control their lives to the point of inappropriate interference. I am done with the interference and have come to terms with what will be lost when I end that interference. I am aware that it is all or nothing and I hope that he understands it will be all or nothing for him if he is to make his way back into my life.
