And an old Jew at the lunch counter back in 1969 told me (I didn't ask) that homosexuality is caused by eating pork. A web site I saw recently stated that New Orleans was hit by Katrina, not because of rampant homosexuality but rampant Catholicism - which causes rampant homosexuality. Ah, the complex world of cause and effect. By the way, my Canon produces movies in AVI format so I directly upload to blogger. I can, but rarely do, edit, as I am a lazy SOB. I already spend way too much time here.
Frank - oh I'm sure it's true what they say about Catholicism, I've known several Catholic men - in the Biblical sense. Grin. But never any strictly kosher guys . . . now there's a study/survey just begging to be done.
Stan - understand, I'd appreciate a quiver or two, myself.
Well, all I know is that Washington, DC passed a gay marriage bill and it got more snow than ever. I guess hell froze over.
Just kidding of course. And now for a serious point: the second commandment forbids taking the name of the Lord in vain. Most people will see that as outlawing cuss words. I think it really means putting words in God's mouth, saying things in his name that were never his intent. And so many who speak in his name violate this commandment repeatedly. When are they going to get their earthquake, snowmaggedon, or whatever?
But yes, why is it that God is always *supposedly* on the side of the oppressors? What the hell kind of God is that? Obviously, the self-justifying kind, made in man's image.
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, harmony; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy. Grant that I may seek not so much to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.

We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love.

Churches say that the expression of love in a heterosexual monogamous relationship includes the physical, the touching, embracing, kissing, the genital act - the totality of our love makes each of us grow to become increasingly godlike and compassionate. If this is so for the heterosexual, what earthly reason have we to say that it is not the case with the homosexual?
It is a perversion if you say to me that a person chooses to be homosexual. You must be crazy to choose a way of life that exposes you to a kind of hatred. It's like saying you choose to be black in a race-infected society.
If God, as they say, is homophobic, I wouldn't worship that God.

Man I'd love to feel the earth shake under my old bones once in a while.
