What Does God Do To Gays? Part I

Divine sanctions for mistreatment of homosexuals?

Sooo...if being gay is a bad thing how does God want people to behave in regards to punishing what is supposed to be a very bad thing? Does God tell people what the punishment is supposed to be or does He let them choose how to punish gays so long as it is something that falls under the confines of the definition of 'punishment' or something similar? Let's take a peek, shall we?


Sooo...what God does to punish gays is to punish EVERYONE? Why in the world punish everyone for something so few do? Does law really work like this, where everyone should be punished for what others do? Is this divine judgment? And garbage like this is precisely part of what gives God and religion such a bad name. Seriously? You really, really think that the changing weather patterns in Colorado are part of some divine judgment for issues with gay marriage? You're smoking crack, dude. It is called 'weather' and it happens to be a major part of the processes of this planet, which by the way is a living planet so these thing DO happen. And why the fuck would God punish everyone in Colorado for something only a fraction choose, hummm? That sounds fair and balanced, right?

This guy thinks that gays (or at least people who engage in gay sex) should be shot in the head with a bullet or bow and arrow. Wonderful. He says this toward the end of this clip in case you were wondering. I only say that because this fellow goes on and on before he gets to saying that. Anyways, this is quite the misleading video. The wrestler's stage name was Rick Michaels and his real name is Raymond Rawls. He was charged with sexual exploitation and NOT being gay as this ding dong apparently thinks. Sexual exploitation IS a crime...as it SHOULD BE. Being gay is not a crime, as it SHOULD NOT BE.

Did you know that the term 'sodomy' is not only NOT in the Bible, but it is a terrible and purposeful misinterpretation added to the repertoire of the Christian religion by those seeking to control by redefining what the divine is against as far as sex goes? No? Check this out:  http://nwanglicanblog.wordpress.com/2011/02/14/sodomy-a-biblical-word-study-that-might-surprise-you/  And did you know that the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah had nothing to do with homosexuality? Check this out: http://www.webpages.uidaho.edu/ngier/sodom.htm  Sooo...you do realize that the first use and supposed intended meaning of the word 'sodomy' is completely inconsistent with the Bible, right? The Bible never, NEVER said such a word with such a meaning. People added that shit. Check this out: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sodomy  And finally, here is the clip where some ass munch named Pat Buchanan says gays ought to be castrated at about 3:10 into the clip:

This is horrible and deeply heartbreaking. People did this to their child whom they suspected was gay. A child. Their child. Do YOU have children? Would you do such a fucked up thing to them just because you suspected them to be gay? Do you know what it is like to be looked down upon and belittled and harassed and demeaned and mistreated because you are gay? Do you know what it is like to want to die because of how you are treated because you are gay? Would you want your sibling or child to feel such a way?

God, the Bigot. And yes, Bigot should be capitalized since God IS the biggest, baddest BIGOT there ever was, correct?

Jail time for being gay. ? Jail time for being gay? Robbers and thugs and molesters go to jail for harming, HARMING others. In a same-sex marriage someone is creating a bond with someone they LOVE. If you are straight...would YOU go to jail to marry the man or woman you love? I am a woman. Would I go to jail just to marry the woman I love? Yes.

Duck your head? This woman is fucked in her head. 


!


Where is the wrath and punishment of God for elder abuse, rape, robbery, battery, exploitation, bigamy, pedophilia, physical abuse, mental abuse, spiritual abuse, child abuse, animal abuse...all of these abuses that some people seem to have an affinity for? Out of all of these terrible things God chooses to punish EVERYONE for those who are gay? Being gay is not a crime, but rape is a crime. Being gay is not a crime, but child abuse is a crime. Being gay is not a crime, but robbery is a crime. Being gay is not a crime, but elder abuse is a crime. WTF, God?


Maybe part of the problem is that there are some people who just have a need to be mean, whether or not the fulfillment of that need pacifies some deep-seeded desire for control and power. I do not know. But...I think there are just some people who have this need, this push from within them, this propensity to be mean...and they WILL defend this need. Yikes. Fuck 'em.


What a move by these parents who set this shit up, hummm? Shut out the gay kids? What a way to bring a society and a people together, what a way to teach your children/the next generation how to behave and treat others. Nice.

Who is this Satan?

Where do people get their ideas about Satan?

Do you know who Satan is? Do you know the story of how Satan was cast out of heaven by God? Do you know what Satan's sole goal is in regards to man? Do you know the level of power and command over the supernatural that Satan possesses?

Many people who believe in the tabloid gossip about Satan in the Bible would rather cling blindly and resolutely to their distorted faith than to think for even one minute that the stories about Satan are totally false. It is interesting to come across the many interpretations of Bible verses that supposedly clearly indicate that the ultimate adversary to God, Satan, actually exists.

It is not man who has been duped into following the wicked wiles of Satan. It is Satan who has been duped and used by God in order that God's mighty, if tragically stupid plan for man be completed in the exact horrible and sadistic manner that God has mapped out.

You know what else? Isn't God supposed to be all powerful? If this is the case and if God truly intended for man to remain in the Garden of Eden to enjoy the glory of God for all eternity, how the hell did Satan get the best of God by tricking Adam and Eve into eating the wrong fruit? And don't give me any of that 'this is God's plan' horseshit. And none of that 'Adam and Eve made their own choice' crap either. That doesn't wash because Adam and Eve did not know what or who (Satan/the Serpent) to look out for, much less even know what 'evil' entailed in the first damn place. God never warned Adam and Eve. Never.

But, didn't God tell Adam and Eve to not eat of the wrong tree? Wasn't that fair warning? God did say that but it was by no means fair warning. Oh, don't eat of that tree or you shall surely die. Well, that is all fine and dandy except for the fact that God never told them about Satan/the Serpent; even though the all-powerful God knew by His own omnipotence that the Serpent was the craftiest thing/person/entity ever He did not warn Adam and Eve but chose to leave that out. 

Man did not 'fall' because it is his nature. Man fell because God left out necessary information vital to the survival of man. In torts negligence cases this would mean God breached His duty of care to man by omission, failing to act in the manner a reasonable person would have in the same or similar situation. God's behavior failed to conform to an acceptable level since 'but-for' God's omission to warn Adam and Eve about the Serpent/Satan, Adam and Eve would not have eaten of the wrong tree.

Christianity seems to truly believe that it has the sole rights of the truth and information in regards to Satan and what Satan has done, is doing now and will do in the future. This is pure stupidity. The good and evil portrayals in the Bible are the same as that occurred in pagan religions developing before Christianity. Only the names have been changed. Read the Bible or go to any fundamentalist church gathering and you just may be surprised by the number of people who truly believe that if it wasn't for the Bible informing people about Satan no one would know of this terrible evil lurking amongst we puny humans. The really sad part is that the Bible creates far more evil than it repels.

Well, what do we have here? Why it is another presentation of ridiculous religious ideals and practices intended to scare the crap out of people so they will turn to Jesus. Some people/shows/ideologies even toss in a mention of Nostradamus for simple dramatic effect. Lots of people fall for this bullshit.

I think it is utterly hilarious that people claim to be Satanist, worshiping Satan as God. The really crazy part is that 'Satan' is a term meaning 'adversary' and is intended to be interpreted in terms of position. Satanism is just as much a bald faced lie as Christianity is. Sure, there were ancient rituals and religions that worshiped deities that were absolutely horrible in their purposes and characteristics, but not anything called 'satanism.' At least not until Christianity came along.

Christianity did not want the spiritual competition provided by pagan religions, and with that in mind those intellectuals who conspired to create the lie of the Holy Bible were all-to-happy to toss in devil worship. Pagans and believers alike were informed by various people at various times in religious history that Satanism has always been around but it previously went by different names and terms and whatnot. 

When I was a kid I remember being informed that the Old Testament references to Molec and Baal and other deities were in reality the same as Satan and the worship of Satan. See, Christianity must go out of its way to create these absurd connections between the Bible's presentation of evil divine beings and what ancient history has to say about the spirituality of all things evil in the universe; the number one reason is to show all those with ears willing to hear of how long Satan has been trying to trick man into abandoning God, and how the only way people can be protected and provided for is to concede to the will of God as so presented in the Bible.

Eventually, Christianity will have to face the absurdity of the idea that Satan exists as a person, or that he is totally bad, or that every time he brought a little unhappiness to people he did so under his own command and not the command of God Himself. But who really gives a shit, because when you look through the Bible and see how terrible and evil Satan is supposed to be, such negative characteristics are still not even half as bad when compared to God. God is the real source of evil in the Bible, right? Everything begins and ends with God, thus so does evil.

Christianity should have given its story about Satan a little more thought before putting such into practice. It is far too easy to prove to be false, or at the very least copied from another religion.

Nothing is a plot of the devil because the devil does not exist. I am tired of hearing people blame the bad shit in their lives on the devil, Satan, beelzebub, and whatever other crackpot name religion labels what is supposed to be evil. People screw their own lives up; the devil or Satan has nothing to do with their trials and tribulations.

This is interesting. The guy in this video is somewhat creepy, but he has some pretty good points to make. Not everything, though. Some of what he says is so far out there he is not even in the stadium parking lot much less left field.
