All's Fair In Food & Same Sex Marriage

This is an article that should have been written a LOOOOOOOOOOONG time ago, but sadly I've never gotten around to it until today. The reason being, there are already SEVERAL people more capable to handle this...rambling (I refuse to call it an argument) more aptly than I can. Furthermore seeing as how this really isn't an argument it's hardly worth discussing. The unfortunate reality is that there are people (short-sighted, shallow thinking people) who think that not only is this an argument but it's a compelling argument.

So now we come to our old pals Mr. John Fugelsang & The Young Turks, Mr. Fugelsang had a discussion with Bill Donohue of The Catholic League (not the best guy to talk to unfortunately) and The Young Turks commented. I'm of the mind set now where I'd like to challenge Mr. Fugelsang to a debate on scripture since by his own words he claims to be an "admirer of Jesus", any TRUE admirer of Jesus wouldn't have such a foolish perspective on scripture...I mean I expect this from The Young Turks but from you Mr. Fugelsang...from you a self-proclaim "admirer of Jesus" (slight divorce joke at Jesus' expense, blasphemy much?)...I hope you understand you're going to face judgment for that. OF COURSE YOU DON'T...let's get started.

The Plight Of A Black American Christian

This article after my previous article has been a LONG time coming, and because of that I feel like this article is going to be very long, very wordy and very emotion driven, which is unfortunate because I try {keyword being: TRY} to be as objective as I possibly can be when dealing with topics that infuriate me but have a feeling that I won't be able to control my anger and frustration but I will make every attempt to do so as to not make this article a jumbled mess of angry rambling. I will make a note that a lot of this article comes from my own personal experience but nonetheless are troubling signs of larger issues that aren't only applicable to me.

The Great Divorce Debacle

 Not too long ago someone posted this on Facebook and I wanted to address it and the topic of divorce in one article, so let's get to the goods;

Homosexuality, Slavery & Women's Rights

Ya know lately I've been running into MORE AND MORE shallow, non-thinking pictures made to display apparent contradictions in Christianity and Christian thinking. Anyways, I must AS ALWAYS correct the MANY misconceptions and hopefully correct the thinking of anyone who would endorse this level argumentation as meaningful. So let's dive in.

Equality vs. Exclusivity

Discrimination is a dirty word, and why shouldn't it be considering it's long standing history during The Civil Rights Movement. BUT nowadays Discrimination has been applied to situations that don't match the definition. Let's take a step back and examine what Discrimination is before we get into this article.

For the purpose of this article we're sticking to the 2nd definition because this is the realm where we find discrimination being used. Not too long ago there was a young boy who wanted to join the Girl Scouts, however the twist was this young boy identified himself as a girl. While some on the left might see this as Discrimination, those of us who are on the RIGHT side of the issues see this for what it is...EXCLUSIVITY! The title CLEARLY says GIRL scouts. The Girl Scouts is a privately funded organization and therefore are allowed to specify membership eligibility for specific genders, races, religious affiliation, ect. ect. Before we go on, let's look at Exclusive.

For the purpose of this article we'll have to focus on the 1st definition, specifically, incompatible. The boy is CLEARLY a boy but he desires to join The GIRL Scouts despite the fact that he is NOT a girl. Therefore by definition of the TITLE of Girl Scouts, he has NO grounds to request membership. And yet the parents of this BOY raise a stink when the Troop Leader doesn't allow HIM to join the Girl Scouts BASED on the fact that HE IS A BOY! In order to elaborate on the foolishness of this situation, this would be like a Black Person trying to join an Asian exclusive organization solely based on the fact that he has a deep seeded admiration of Asian culture so much so that he identifies himself as an Asian. That's fine, cool, and dandy BUT YOU'RE NOT ASIAN! We would clearly see the foolishness there, BUT because this is a child, our heartstrings get tugged at and Woe be tied to he who makes a child FEEL BAD. Give me a break...

Understand that I am NOT belittling the issue of this little boy, obviously he has a very deep seeded psychological disorder that causes him to think he is a girl and that issues needs to be treated NOT encouraged. But getting back to my point, Discrimination is being misused to be applied to ANY rejection of individuals REGARDLESS if it's a legitimate rejection or not.

Which brings me to the myth that is "Marriage Equality". If Homosexual Activists REALLY believed in "Marriage Equality" they'd affirm Polygamy, Pederasty, Incest, after all, why is it wrong for them to get married but okay for you ? We Christians don't have that problem, we believe in Marriage exclusivity, between an unrelated, of age Man & Woman (Race and Religious affiliation are not specified), although ideally one should marry someone who shares their religious affiliation, simply because a union of opposing world views can not survive a marriage. Based on OUR beliefs we have a reason to reject ANY idea of marriage outside of what God specified...however Homosexual Activists do not have such a standard to reject polygamy, pederasty and incest, and any attempt at doing so would be seen a bigotry and ignorance on their part...however they're unable to make that connection. So Homosexuals DON'T believe in "Marriage Equality", they believe in "Marriage Equality FOR THEM ONLY" which is really Marriage Exclusivity.

10 Reasons Why Gay Marriage Should Be Banned...Yeah Sure...

So I decided to have a little fun today. I saw the image below and decided that's I'd respond to each point with a little thing called logical and well thought-out arguments since there are an unfortunate number of people who think the points made in this image are solid:

Regarding "Pastor" Haynes...

So as I stated earlier in regards to the topic of Nominal Christianity, here is "Pastor" Fredrick D. Haynes III discussing President Obama's statement on Gay Marriage... I apologize for the length of this video but I had a lot to say and there was a lot of correcting to be done. Furthermore I will indeed be sending this link to "Pastor" Haynes and hopefully open a dialogue with him about his views. Below here is the original video and below that is my response. Enjoy and Peace in Christ.

My Response

Fathers ? Nonsense.

The Poor Reality Of America Today...

”While it’s great to listen to your kids’ ideas, there’s also a time when dads simply need to be dads. In this case, it would’ve been helpful for him to explain to Malia and Sasha that while her friends parents are no doubt lovely people, that’s not a reason to change thousands of years of thinking about marriage, Ideally, fathers help shape their kids’ worldview. In this situation, it was the other way around. I guess we can be glad that Malia and Sasha aren’t younger, or perhaps today’s press conference might have been about appointing Dora the Explorer as Attorney General because of her success in stopping Swiper the Fox, sometimes dads should lead their family in the right ways of thinking. In this case, it would’ve been nice if the President would’ve been an actual leader and helped shape their thoughts instead of merely reflecting what many teenagers think after one too many episodes of Glee.” - Bristol Palin

I can't believe I'm actually saying this, BUT it's a shame when an UNMARRIED Bristol Palin makes MORE sense than The President of the United States. Now I am NO Sarah Palin supporter, nor am I a supporter of The Tea Party or anything of that nature, BUT I can't deny that she's 100% correct (the little jab about "Dora The Explorer" aside) President Obama did indeed put the blame squarely on his children stating that it wouldn't occur to them that something was wrong with the relationships of their friends parents. Here in lies Bristol's point...it wouldn't occur to them BECAUSE YOU NEVER TAUGHT THEM!! President Obama has claimed Christianity time and time again and time and time again he's proven that he does NOT understand what it is he's claiming. To make matters worse MANY who call themselves Christians are going to look to President Obama as an example of a "Christian" who supports Gay Marriage, leading many to believe that you can be a Christian and support Gay Marriage...and YOU CANNOT because the 2 are UNARGUABLY INCOMPATIBLE!  

“I’m a Christian. And so, although I try not to have my religious beliefs dominate or determine my political views on this issue, I do believe that tradition, and my religious beliefs say that marriage is something sanctified between a man and a woman.” - President Barack Obama, Sept. 25, 2004 

I suppose we know what he means when he said he tries not to have his religious beliefs dominate or determine his political view. As Christianity is compatible with ANY political system that'll allow religious ideologies. You can be a Christian and a Democrat, you can be a Christian and a Republican, you can be a Christian and a Monarch, you can be a Christian with any sort of political affiliation but the one thing you CAN'T be is a Christian who is actively going against the Word of God. There's a word for people like that, it's called Hypocrite. I maybe selfish in saying what I'm about to say next but being African American myself I can't help but think what this is going to do for the African American community at large. Of course many of us are proud to have an African American in the White House however, when Racial Identity trumps God's Word, we have a problem. NOT THAT I AM ENDORSING MIT ROMNEY! Let's face it Romney's religious teaching profane marriage JUST AS BADLY AS HOMOSEXUALITY. But I see an even LARGER divide being driven between African Americans because of this...and that makes me very sad. This is just not a good week at all for the people of God. Peace in Christ, we can still pray for Obama's repentance and acceptance of what God has taught and affirmed SINCE THE BEGINNING. Pray for him and pray for Romney. Peace in Christ all!
