Gay Marriage

I really hear a lot of crap from politicians on a daily basis.  One comment took the cake today.  I will not name him, but he defended his position against gay marriage by saying, “It (marriage) between a man and a woman has worked pretty well for the past 2000 years, so I don’t see a need to change what works.”  I couldn’t believe the journalist let this guy get away with that ridiculous defense of heterosexual marriage.  Why didn’t the journalist explain that 1st of all marriage goes back much further than 2000 years (Surprise, it’s not just a Christian concept, buddy!)  Secondly, we’ve come a long way from those times…baby!

According to this line of reasoning…we should bring back the pharaohs’ and monarchy to rule us…while the working classes starve and build pyramids and go on holy crusades for the rich folks. We should also forget our judicial system and just lynch people with vigilante justice.  As a matter of fact…let’s close down public schools/libraries/publishing houses/Internet because the masses shouldn’t be allowed to read.

Ladies…forget education for you…you have to marry or be owned by your brother…who we all know will treat you like a slave or if you do marry just have baby after baby…oh yea (no birth control)!  Too many mouths to feed?…Well, I guess you’ll have to expose them to the elements like they did back in the old days because sadly there won’t be any orphanages or adoption agencies and really?  Do you think the Feudal Lords will really want your common children?

Yes…all this was working pretty well for a select few people back in those days!  But…because of people that didn’t march “in rank and file” society became much fairer.  It is because of those people that our civilization has progressed and will continue to do so.

I personally feel the government should not have a say in who you marry.  I believe strongly that everyone should have equal rights in this country.  That guy just really griped my ass with his ignorance.  People are born gay or bisexual.  I don’t know if it is genetic or hormonal, but it is nothing a person can change willfully.

I know this to be true from personal experience.  I have always been attracted to both sexes…all the way back when the first sexual thoughts came into being.  Luckily…in this modern day and age, I haven’t been forced to marry and have children that I didn’t want.

People like this politician thought they could stop change way back then, too.  100 years from now, I’m sure someone will be griping about dating robots with artificial intelligence!

Her mind is on fire

Burning with a wicked heat

A voice hissing inside her head

Reveals the word…the deceit

 

Power…is the word that mocks her

It melts inside her spirit

Like gooey chocolate sin

And she has no sense to fear it

 

Tragic is the life for her

To want and yet be denied

Creator of life stripped bare

No justice…global matricide. ©

My Interview with God/Dess

12 Sunday Jun 2011

I thought I might like to write a book based on my personal interview with God/Dess.  I wonder how far that would go…huummmm?  Well, I do know many people have been very successful doing just that.  Just look at history…all the holy writings from any religion I know of… claim to know the mind of that all powerful entity known as God.  Well in my interview with God/Dess…I was told that s/he designed us to evolve into something that might be more interesting and intelligent than a rock, but s/he said she had been mostly disappointed as of yet.

She also said Humans are stupid and easily manipulated and soooo easy to brainwash no matter how ludicrous the idea.  She liked Albert Einstein’s quote…  “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.  He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.”

You know… I forgive people back in ancient times…all the way up to the renaissance…because they really just didn’t have the knowledge to make sense of everything.  So, why not make up stories to fill in the gaps?  Stories are fun.  However, I do hold people accountable for their ignorance today.  It’s pure sloth!  Yes…sloth is one of the seven deadly sins!  People are mentally lazy in this day and time.  No one wants to do the hard work of acquiring knowledge and exercising critical thinking skills to develop a conceptual understanding.   People want the answer handed to them in a nice little package.

These mentally lazy people are ruling the world with their ignorance and making this world into a hell.  They use their religious ideas to form societies that punish people who don’t accept their blind faith.  I can just hear these dolts…science is too hard…I can’t wrap my brain around this…what good is math…I don’t want to think…just give me the answer…we are alone in the universe…we must obey…we must obey…we must obey!  These mindless obedient pod people continue to embrace outdated notions with superstitious zeal.  What intelligent being would not be contemptuous of such stupidity?

God/Dess gave us a brain to think…to evolve…to create…to become something admirable & noble.  It is such a beautiful gift.  It’s really disgusting that some people do not appreciate the miraculous organ and allow it to atrophy into so much mush.  They never ask the question?  Why did God/Dess gift me with this brain?  It reminds me of that Ally bank commercial where the bank guy gives the little girl a brand new bike and then tells her the rule is… to not ride the bike outside the tiny square he’s given her.  Do you give your child a bicycle and then command them to never learn to use it…to stay in that tiny square?   Why even give them the bicycle?

If God/Dess wanted us to be a bunch of mindless zombies…s/he wouldn’t have given us …yes let me say it once again…a brain.  Humanity could make this world a much better place if we collectively respected knowledge and each other.  Many diligent people sweated blood and tears to give us the knowledge we have today.   Many also gave their lives because they had the courage to refuse to march “rank and file.”   It grieves me to see so many people ignore their sacrifice.

Throughout time I have been hunted…

Through ages past…history informs us—

Death is the only reward for those who see,

Tortured for ideas—hanged—burned—

Blasphemer—witch—goddess-whore.

Genetics…the key to heaven,

Math and Music…the languages of the Creator…

Gifted with our minds’ we have

A pathway to the divine—

God—Goddess—Yin and Yang.

Giving in to hate and ignorance…

Not yet evolved outside our species,

And yet humanity’s evil rules the earth

Through the guise of three powerful religions—

Sloth—Wrath…and Greed. ©

God/Dess

Some people may read my blog and think I am a man hater.  I assure you I am not.  I have brothers, nephews, and some of my best friends have been male throughout my life.  I have the good sense to realize both sexes have been duped by writings written by men way back that decided they understood the mind of God/Dess.  Those ancient ignorant minds noticed the pain women had to endure through childbirth and sometimes on a monthly basis and decided that God/Dess was obviously anti-female.  Women were obviously being punished!

So, if these ancient men actually reasoned along that line of thought…they should have realized that whenever they had a kidney stone or hit pretty hard in the gonads…they should have realized God/Dess might be anti-male as well.  I’m just sorry that when the so-called rules of God/Dess were carved onto a rock…some lady didn’t stand up and say…no…God/Dess doesn’t hate women…God/Dess trusts women to nourish, protect, and bring forth life.  Maybe it did happen…maybe she was beat up or stoned…maybe covers a lot of scenarios…

These people were too ignorant to see the simple concept…God/Dess teaches through pain.  Men and women are tried by different types of pain, but I don’t know a soul on this earth that doesn’t taste pain through our mortal bodies.  For humanity to survive…it is imperative that a mother protect her offspring.  I can tell you that if a woman goes through 9 miserable months and hour after hour of agonizing labor…she will cherish the prize in most cases…unless there is some mental illness at work.  It’s like running a 100 mile marathon or the Iron Man triathlon.  When you take the trophy and photos home you cherish them.  They wouldn’t mean as much if it had been a walk in the park.  Life is pain…pain makes you think…thinking leads to wisdom…

Oh…by the way…I use the word God/Dess because it kind of covers male and female.  It is not fair for women to have to think of God/ Dess as totally male and it is not fair for men to think the God/Dess is totally female.  Plus…I speak English and God is dog spelled backwards.  So, I like to be fair and respectful to the all powerful entity that created me.

Dream of Equality

05 Sunday Jun 2011

I had a dream last night.  It was interesting.  I dreamt America sent a huge fleet of ships through the Mediterranean Sea to the coast of Egypt.  A mob of Egyptian women came running out to the water’s edge tearing off burkas, headscarves, and clothes to throw themselves naked into the sea where they began swimming for the ships.

Wow!  Wouldn’t that be an event?  I thought about the dream and I wondered…how many of those women if given the chance would overcome their fears and conditioning to actually liberate themselves.  How many would snatch up their daughters and escape?  How many would leave their cruel male overlords and taste sweet freedom?

But, then I began thinking more deeply and I thought of American society.  How many women actually buck the system in America?  How many women stand up to misogyny in American society?  Men insult each other by calling the other a “p@#^y” (slang for the reproductive part of a woman’s body).  “Little bitch is another disrespectful insult men love to throw at each other.”   “Or you cry like a little girl.”  I hear these phrases so often today that in some ways I have become desensitized to their root meaning, which of course is…the female is weak and deserves derision.

Today’s movies and TV glorify the courageous male hero!  How many movies have you seen lately where a woman saves the day?  If you happened to find one…it probably starred Angelina Jolie or was maybe written by Joss Whedon.   I hear the excuse is that there isn’t an audience or market for the female hero…the law of supply and demand and such.  So, maybe they’re right.   Maybe American women…just like many of the Egyptian women in my dream… refuse to throw off their clothes and swim for freedom.

American women complain about human rights issues in Muslim countries and ignore the inequality of the American system.  Women are often discriminated against in the workplace, religious institutions, and in society as a whole.  I’ve actually heard men say that they are discriminated against due to minority laws.  This is so ludicrous that I have to breathe and count to 10 before I construct my answer.  I guess it’s not enough that men have molded the world into their violent vision for over 5000 years…and subjugated women through brute force and then something very clever…religion.  So, I suppose the female is being unreasonable to ask for a few labor laws to balance the scale.  That’s just asking for too many crumbs from the table…I guess.

I do agree with that guy yelling discrimination… in the idea that the government cannot force change.  Change begins with the children.  We construct the future through the children.  Children are taught gender roles very early.  Children are pressured by parents to mold themselves into what society will accept.  But, but doing this…they lesson the possibilities for so many children to grow into something different and unique.  The ironic thing is that many children “go with the flow” to satisfy parents and society but secretly hide their true identities…and take anti-depressants to cope with their unhappiness.

Little girls wear pink and little boys wear blue…right?  Society forces dolls on little girls and tools or play weapons on little boys.  ‘Cause after all girls are supposed to nurture and boys are supposed to hunt…right?  Girls are expected to cry when they fall down…boys aren’t supposed to cry.  If women ever want to reach equal status in this society, mothers’ must let their children choose their own toys and teach girls and boys to work together.  They must stop shoving the children into these restrictive boxes or humanity will never progress.  I would imagine at one point…if we don’t start using our minds…God Dess will clean the slate and start over.

If women had been allowed equality for the past 5000 years, we would not recognize the world today.  I think of all the brilliant women in times past that were not allowed an education or voice because they were female.   I think of the inventions, great works of art, literature, scientific knowledge, and spiritual/philosophical ideas that never saw the light of day because a female expressed it or a male claimed it for himself.  The sad thing is…most men and women do not realize or face this fact because if they did…our society would be advancing much faster.

Mothers…I challenge you to escape your conditioning and raise your children to be strong, intelligent, and empathetic.  Teach children equality and to work together as partners.  I keep hearing that song in my head…“Mama don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys” and while I am not a country music fan…the message in that one sentence would change a lot of things for a great many little boys and girls if the advice was followed.

Another interesting thing to ponder…Egypt had a female Pharaoh named Hatshepsut 3500 years ago.  America gave women the right to vote less than 100 years ago.  America as of yet has not elected a female President.  Ladies it’s time to wake up.  Look at Egypt today…
