Proposition 8...ad in Los Angeles Times offensive! Doesn't pass the smell test...




On Sunday morning I was flipping through the pages of the weekend edition of the Los Angeles Times, when I stumbled across a full page ad featuring a sketch of Christ with a crown of thorns on his head.


I was greatly offended to find that the image was being used as a political ploy to urge the residents of the State of California to Vote "yes" on Proposition 8.

For starters, I find the use of Christ's image for such a cause, outrageous.

In the ad - the tired old perpetrators of the sleazy propaganda tool - referred to the oft-quoted Biblical Verse (!) at Leviticus 20:13.

"If a man lies down with a male as he lies down with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination."

Oh, hogwash!

I have it on high authority that those are "not" God's words!

That verse - and others - were penned by Church Officials centuries ago with a secret agenda in mind.

Notwithstanding, I also find it very telling that the individual(s) who financed this dubious campaign smut attack, were inclined to keep a low profile on their own nefarious backgrounds.

At the bottom of the blurb (rude burp?) it simply noted the ad was paid for by one S.R. Grubb.

A search of the Internet revealed that the Grubbs - in spite of who they think they may be - are a curious lot of questionable and dubious origins!

No matter.

The overriding verse that all Christians should pay heed to is the one in which the Lord notes that when he calls on someone, he accepts them as "they are".

Specifically, the scriptures state that when the call has come, the Lord does not require that a person marry (if they are single), or divorce (if they are married); in fact, they are not required to "change", at all.

In essence, the Lord accepts the individual "as they are".

The rest of the hateful crap - that the Evangelicals and the Religious fundamentalists are trying to shove down everyone's throat - is a bunch of misguided "Satanic" nonsense.

By the way, have a great day!

Gay Marriage...Archbishop Rowan Williams says Gay Unions OK to God!


When the whole issue of "gay marriage" hit the fan weeks ago (after a bill passed approving the "unions" in California) I noted in a post on the heels of the brouhaha - that based on my own familiarity with the scriptures - a relationship with a same-sex partner was not wrong in the eyes of God.

In newly-disclosed correspondence, it has been revealed that the Archbishop of Canterbury - Rowan Williams - penned his thoughts on the controversial subject.

In sum, he asserted that the Bible doesn't forbid sax-sex relationships when there is a commitment similar to those in traditional marriages.

In the news report - the English journalists outlined all the Archbishop's views - based on communications he wrote between the years 2000-2001 to an associate, Deborah Pitt.

Ms. Pitt is an Evangelical who asked the Archbishop for his opinion on the issues.

The newspaper quoted Williams verbatim,

"I concluded that an active sexual relationship between two people of the same sex might therefore reflect the love of God in a way comparable to marriage, if and only if it had about it the same character of absolute covenanted faithfulness."

In my own post weeks ago, I noted it was essential the relationship be nurturing, loving - and most of all - monogamous.

In the final analysis, for those in doubt, I urge prayer for guidance on the subject.

God may answer in mysterious ways!
