Why I Have Mixed Feelings About Thanksgiving
Let me be honest, there are a lot of things I like about Thanksgiving. I think it’s nice to get together with the ones you love. I very much enjoy the food that is served. And I like the idea of modesty and not taking things for granted. Showing each other gratitude is never something I would oppose! But Thanksgiving troubles me for some reasons too. First of all, how we think about the history of Thanksgiving is blatantly racist, in my opinion. I mean, it was all about how the Native Americans saved the Pilgrims and they all celebrated together! How happy and wonderful! I think these kids do a much better interpretation of what actually happened (Hat Tip:
“Religious Liberty” My Ass! – The Manhattan Declaration
Sorry, I do know better than to write when I’m angry, but I’m angry and I’m writing, so here goes. The concept of “religious liberty,” as continually used by those on the extreme right to defend their archaic discrimination, is complete trash. It’s a farce to think that these people—or any people—can use a belief or set of beliefs to get their own interpretation of the laws.

Glee Demonstrates My Straight Man-Gay Man Theory!

I Think People Who Can’t Discern Between Sexual Orientation and Paraphilia Should Shut Up
Wow, harsh title. I guess I’m just tired of society being so ho-hum when people are just wrong in what they say. No, it’s not that they have a “different opinion.” They just have no clue what they’re talking about. Here’s a quick primer. Everyone has a sexual orientation. Everyone. And it only means one thing. It means to which sex(es) a person is oriented. It’s right there in the name. You can be oriented towards males or females or potentially both or potentially those whose sex defies the binary. But, that’s pretty much it. It has been measured, documented, and defined over and over again and that is all
Don’t Read Harry Potter and Don’t Shop at Gap/Diversity Is a Cancer
I really didn’t expect to be writing about this regularly. Honestly. But, this is too good… I wrote last week about the American Family Association’s boycott of Gap, Inc. Just as a reminder, the AFA took um brage that Gap would not specifically cater to Christianity
