But in the case of meat on Fridays for Catholics, a past Pope decided that well maybe that was silly and so decreed that meat was ok on Fridays after all. So, let's see. God no man no a Pope decided meat was NOT a good idea to eat on Fridays (although the rest of the week it was ok...go figure), and then ANOTHER Pope decided to rescind that ban. Disposable sin?
There are many examples of inconsistent decrees about things supposedly major sin OR NOT. Hard to keep up sometimes.
So now let's say your first birthday is today and as a present you get handed (in your crib) a paper requiring you to make certain declarations about yourself.
#1. CHOOSE YOUR HAIR COLOR: You may pick
(a) blonde (dumb) or
(b) Brown (best) or
(c) Ginger/Redhead (thought to be unstable and perhaps sinful) or
(d) a combination (no opinion except it is weird).
#2. CHOOSE YOUR EYE COLOR: You may pick
(a) blue (gorgeous)
(b) brown (plain)
(c) Violet (borderline heretic)
(d) Hazel (weird)
#3. CHOOSE YOUR ULTIMATE HEIGHT: _____ (fill in the blank)
#4. CHOOSE YOUR GENDER: (if you notice you have a dick), you may choose
(a) male or bi or neither
(if you notice you have a hole where a dick should be), you may choose
(a) female or bi or neither
If you choose neither one will be picked for you.
#5. CHOOSE YOUR SEXUAL ORIENTATION: You may choose
(a) Homosexual (preferred but costly) You will crave other men
(b) Heterosexual (if you must) (You will crave women and babies and outrageous bills and multiple divorces and be considered normal although we ALL know wink wink)...
(c) Bisexual (best of both worlds or total confusion)
(d) Asexual (if you choose this you will never have sex and won't miss it)
This sounds more than a little ridiculous doesn't it. OF COURSE IT DOES!
BUT, this is the homophobes view of the world. The gender biased, the gay bashers, the IGNORANT.
You might conclude that to hand a baby a declarative request for the basics would be ludicrous on its face... YET. THIS is what the homophobe HAS TO BELIEVE HAPPENS. HE DID OF COURSE. Chose to be heterosexual early in his life. One day he was asked to make a decision. BE STRAIGHT OR GAY OR BOTH? CHOOSE NOW, and OF COURSE, he chose the normal path, heterosexuality.
REALLY?
HE DID?
POOF all right. Poof to that bullshit.
NOBODY AND I DO MEAN NOBODY picks any of that on their 1st birthday, at the exit of the birth canal, on their 21st birthday, or EVER. JUST DOESN'T HAPPEN and wouldn't make sense if it did.
Stop laughing. Did YOU? NO! Nuts to think anyone ever did. They don't. I didn't. You didn't. NOBODY DOES.
But for anyone to hate gays because OF COURSE THEY CHOSE TO BE GAY... this is the absolute certainty they have to believe. Maybe on the 2nd birthday but that is equally outrageous and STUPID. 3rd? Why not on their 50th birthday, yeh . Ok, you turn 50 and now you have to choose which sex you are and which one you like and how tall you wanna be... HAHAHAHAHA. Guess what. AIN'T HAPPENING, BUCKWHEAT.
SO, if one does NOT choose their own hair color or eye color or gender or orientation, then what sense does it make to ostracize or discriminate against or hate ANYONE for their orientation when in truth THEY DIDN'T CHOOSE IT. GOD DID.
OOPS!
If your religion teaches that any orientation is sinful, how do they explain that it is God given but A SIN? They really can't. They can roll out a bunch of bullshit defensive crap to try to explain it but none of it will really explain it adequately or excuse it or properly defend it since that position is indefensible and inexcusable.
ORIENTATION IS NOT A CHOICE. As you can clearly see. NOBODY CHOOSES TO BE STRAIGHT OR GAY OR BI. YOUR ORIENTATION IS WHAT IT IS FROM BIRTH.
So stop the hate, stop the bullshit rhetoric, stop the crap. STOP THE RELIGIOUS BULLSHIT and if this is what your religion teaches and it is patently untrue, what else?
I am not saying all religion is bad. What I AM saying is that is religion is NOT GOD. IT IS MAN'S INTERPRETATION of what WE THINK is how God wants us to worship him. Pure and simple. Religion and the accompanying 'holy books' are guidelines nothing more. If there was one true religion FROM GOD, THERE WOULD BE ONE TRUE RELIGION PERIOD. Not a mishmash of bunches not to mention Athiesm and Nihilism.
Believe what you feel is correct, but do NOT be stupid. Remember at the heart of all religions is the prayer that one lives a good life, mainly FOR others... IN LOVE AND CARING AND INTEGRITY. Nothing wrong with that. It is only when we get into the Thou Shalt Nots we get into serious trouble.
There are too many variables. Life is not all that simple but human beings are definitely NOT simple. Complex we is .
But we must be ever mindful that we ALL OF US were created equal and tolerance is required. Respect for others and our differences while celebrating our similarities and there are more of those than the differences that can become so divisive. After all it is our attitudes and our differences that cause the most wars.
Others of HIS Creation?
So the Chinese hate the Americans but lend us money and send us cheap shit we sell to each other, and they love the North Koreans but don't trust them and don't really like them and want to control them but know they really don't and then there are the Russians and the Venezuelans and....
Makes my head hurt.
If God created all in HIS image and likeness, does this mean God is at war with Himself? Is God Schizophrenic? Now there's a thought.
ANYWAY, none of this makes sense but this. God created us (if you believe that but in any event here we are somehow), and we came with the basics intact from the factory in Heaven or Hell or Des Moines or...)
Eye color, Hair Color, DNA and Genetics in place including gender and orientation.
PERIOD.
FINI.
Que Sera Sera.
In other words, I am Male who likes other Males (except you... hehehe ) and you are Male and like who you like and SO WHO THE FUCK CARES?
IS WHAT IT IS. LIVE IT.
SOME PEOPLE ARE HETEROSEXUAL. GET OVER IT.
SOME AREN'T. GET OVER IT.
Just be thankful you aren't THAT OTHER KIND. EEEEK.
Who wants to put their... in...
OMG
OH EWWWW
OH PULEEZE
People can be THOOO THUPID sometimes. Ok, ALL the time.
LOL.
Don't get me started.
