I officially declare this “Religious Tuesday”…

 

A message on myspace awoke my tastebuds on Sunday.  Never had I really been a victim of any type of hate speech, but alas…someone claiming to be out “saving souls” wrote some pretty derogatory terms about my sexuality.  Shocked, I decided that it would be best to just not reply to justify this person’s actions.  However, here is the link to her page.  Please feel free to send her messages, links and comments filled with gay pornography.  As Margaret Cho says, it’s time to activate “al Gaydah”. 

 

In retrospect, I won't post the link because I'm better than that.  If you want it however, ask and you shall receive!

 

I awoke this morning and found myself watching The 700 Club.  Why, oh why?!  For some strange reason, Pat Robertson is totally fascinating.  I can’t really fathom why people take what he says so seriously.  His voice is so Chester the Molester, old man living at the end of your street with an overgrown yard and a ton of cats, trying to give you candy if you agree to come inside.  Sketchy.  But why is he so fascinating to me?  Maybe I’m just jealous and want to hear the voice of God like he does.  Or maybe I’m just jealous because the voices that he hears seem to predict something catastrophic, unlike mine which just say “eat that!” and “you should take a shower.” 

 

I got back to the BART station and was accosted by this guy who started preaching the Bible to me.  Mind you, he was pushing an old man in a wheelchair and when he saw he, he pushed the old man rolling in his chair in another direction, ran up to me and starting blabbering on about the King James bible.  I just stood there, agreeing to his every word.  It was freezing and I didn’t feel like standing there for any length of time.  He gave me a booklet called, “How to get to Heaven from California.”  YAY…there are directions!  I’m going to Mapquest it later.  How convenient!

 

In all seriousness, I respect the fact that people have so much faith in a higher being and feel the need to share it.  Faith is powerful and can be wonderful as long as it doesn’t cloud your better judgment.  There are a ton of spiritual things that I believe in, but I prefer them to be personal, which is how I think religion should be.  What is right for me, may not be necessarily right for you.  Celebrate differences.  Learn from differences. 

 

Quote of the day:

“Dear God, since I can’t be skinny, please make my friends fat.”
