It STILL Pisses Me Off!!

People get it done here!

Rant like a raving maniac!

If it pisses you off, I want to hear about it!

~Here are a just a few of mine~

Three weeks ago the head of the Roman Catholic Church, Pope Benedict, was in the United States being revered as though he was more than a mere man. We all saw it-how could we avoid it? Every television network and cable news channels covered his every movement from the placing on of his eyeglasses to handing him tissues (toilet paper?).

There comes a time in human history when one must come to terms with the going’s on and the implications of their actions in living history.

Make no mistake about it…I am a Christian. A-nothing-special-person-who-respects-anyone’s-spirituality. No bigger or smaller than anyone else.

For a lot of Christian’s out there we must remember a few precepts we’ve been taught. Being a Christian means humility; moreover, if one thinks their walk will be easy, perhaps another faith is the way to go, inasmuch as to be a Christian means to suffer; although, not like the ascetic suffers, yet nonetheless there will be persecution, and the rubbish that comes with it.

There are many people, some of my own friends, colleagues, and associates who struggle with this concept. As a Christian, who hasn’t received this one; “How could anyone believe in something that will cause them to suffer?” A little on the temporal side, but for most in this day and age, and what we have allowed America to evolve into without interceding, it’s easy to see where this place is headed.

Here is a basic natural right; moreover, it is a basic civil right:

“The union of love, based on matrimony between a man and a woman, which makes up the family, represents a good for all society that can not be substituted by, confused with, or compared to other types of unions,” Pope Benedict said.

The pope also spoke of the inalienable rights of the traditional family, “founded on matrimony between a man and a woman, to be the natural cradle of human life”.

Now then here is one of the issues that’s been bugging me like a pest: Those individuals who subscribe to the notion of sexual orientation, ad infinitum who argue that “My god doesn’t believe that…or even for the atheist who says, ‘we don’t believe in a god’” and speaks of inalienable rights really ought to think things over just a bit more.

And finally, when is it fair for the natural rights, henceforth, the civil rights of one person or 100 million people, are trounced upon the ‘alleged’ civil rights of another? Isn’t that what we refer to as discrimination?


Still bringing more…
