In the Presence of Vultures

After the state of California banned same sex marriage, the proponents of Prop. 8 now wnats same sex marriages be nullified. So the bigots now want religion to dictate what rights a human being can exercise. They claim that same sex marriage the foundations of what a family consitutes. Ah yes, there is no mention of gays and lesbians being created by God. I forgot that God created only man and woman. But does anyone know what God’s sex is? Last I heard that he created us in His image. Then I suppose He can either be a woman or a man. And if this is the case, He could be gay or a lesbian as well.

Ok, this post is not supposed question what God is. It’s about how narrow-minded, pea-brained some cults can be. I call them cults because they interpret the Holy Bible literally. Just like how “Go forth and multiply” to these fanatics mean that they can marry as many wives as they want. Just imagine how their children must feel, confused that they have so many mothers and so many siblings as well. Would polygamy mean that theirs is a NORMAL family? It’s stupid isn’t it?

Times are changing and whether we like it or not, gays and lesbians are humans too, with right to decide for themselves how to run their lives. Who are we to say that they will not be good parents? We’ve witnessed how men of the faith rape young boys and father children out of wedlock. We’ve seen how pastors steal the money of heir churches. I know of several orphans adopted and raised by these so-call abominations of society and they have been raised very well. They’re normal heterosexuals with happy, normal families.

Now isn’t it pure bigotry to discriminate or take away the rights of others because they don’t share the same lifestyles we have? Or have we forgotten that we are judged by the Lord based on how we lived our lives? I think this issue has to do more with ego than a moral one. Just imagine how a man would feel if he is outdone by a lesbian or a woman who loses her husband to a gay. Hahahaha! It sure looks more like this to me than calling it a sin.

Never judge lest you be judged. We cannot dictate upon others what they should be nor could we tell them that they cannot be good parents. If you’re not secured with your sexuality then please deal with it yourself and not put the blame of society’s decay on some man or woman who chose to be different.

The US ato industry is reeling from the economic slowdown. The big 3 has been asking the US government for aid. But the lawmakers would prefer to teach them a lesson. Well, not exactly the CEOs alone but the unions as well. Congress thinks thworkers are getting too much. So now they stand to lose their jobs. At a time when unemployment is at its highest, congress thinks another 2.5 million jobs doesn’t matter. What about the other businesses that will be affected if the big 3 rolls over? I suppose it’s more prudent for them to safeguard(?) the taxpayers’ money. Now the bailout lies in the hands of the president.

The revenues lost if the big 3 closes down is staggering, not to mention the burden and effect it will have on an already ailing economy.  I suppose the lawmakers would like the workers to match the salaries being paid in sweatshops in Asia. The workers are willing to make conscessions but of course not to the extent they they would end up being dehumanized in the process.

If there’s anyone whose pay should be cut, it’s the overpaid lawmakers and their absurd retirement benefits. Maybe they should do the patriotic thing and cut their wages by 50% and not use their pork barrel for some stupid project that give them their kickbacks.

The auto industry is the backbone of America’s industrial might and not to help them out is like handing over the American dream to some forreign country. I suppose congress is not getting enough grease money from the atuto industry unlike the other businesses that they chose to bailout. As for those who oppose such a bailout, the market is not dictated by the industry, it is the consumer who dictates what is to be sold in the market. It is stupid to blame the industry for the condition they are in. These companies will not be churning out big gas-guzzling vehicles if no one will buy them.

At a time when the very heart of American might is under siege, the on;ly logical thing to do is come to its aid.During the las world war, the auto industry did what was asked of them by the country. They built the machines that won the war. Now they’re in dire straits, the least the country can do is to help them keep their heads above water.
