This blog is really just for me to get out some pint up frustration. I made the mistake of giving a lovely, vigorous, handsome young man the blog topic of evolution. This was my mistake. I should have asked him privately. Matt, all I cared for was your opinion. I value your opinion and some of what you usually have to say. I also appreciate most of those that debated with him. It helped me out. When I gave Matt this topic, I was very interested to find out what he would write. Some were a little upset about what he had to say. I was a little surprised on what he had to say. Matt believes in the Bible. Just because you disagree with Matt doesn’t make you any more right. You were not there when the Bible was written.
Did you know that monks, scholars, and scribes were in charge of writing the Bible from its original text? They didn’t have a printing press. This means that the ORIGINAL Bible could have been messed with. Something could have been added, something could have been taken away. Do I believe it was messed with? Heck no. But it is a possibility. All I am trying to say is you were not there when the Earth was created. I think it is very foolish of us to limit God to only one way the Earth and Heavens could have been created. He is God!! He does what he wants! In the Bible it says that God created the Earth and the Heavens in six days and on the seventh he rested. Does God really need rest? Or was the potential poem just a way to set up the Sabbath?
I understand both sides of the debate. The Bible reads that the world was created in six days and God rested on the seventh, so that’s what the truth is. I gotcha. God created us through some sort of evolution. Starting from a big bang (that God made happen no mistake) and through the years of soupy-monkeyness, came us. Gotcha. Good points. I am not saying this is wrong. Either one. Simply because I am dumb. I don’t know all the answers. One day I will ask somebody that does. (HINT: God)This isn’t something that makes or breaks the relationship with God. I believe it’s a detail. Humans like to understand things. Jesus spoke in parables to help us understand things too complicated for our little brains.
On to new Business.
Those who think you are going to hell because you are gay or know someone that is gay. Your dumb! Shut up! No one values your opinion. Yes, being gay is a sin. So is throwing a baby against a wall. Which one does God hate more? Both! If you lie then you are the same as the gay person! If you are a guy and you look at an attractive woman too long (Matt and Jeff, this one is for you) then you are the same as the gay person! Sin is a sin is a sin. Don’t speak for God! Just a guess, but I bet He doesn’t like it.
Continuing
The people that rally against gay people or people that are about to get an abortion with there picket signs and hate calls, shut up! Stop wasting air! Practice lock jaw for me. I am convinced that you do not change the way someone is by yelling things at them. My mom does it to me and I ignore her. But when my dad comes up very calmly and tells me something, depending on what he just told me, my reaction is much better than being yelled at. There are two ways to change someone.1) Love them unconditionally. Be the best friend they need. Love them like you love yourself. If you were getting yelled at, you would want someone to come help you out; wouldn’t you? Get to know that person. Try to understand where they are coming from. Be sensitive to their feelings. (It’s a hard thing to do and I really am not trying to do that on this particular blog) 2.) Brute, unmerciful force! It’s my personal favorite. If someone is doing something you don’t want them to do then beat the living dog mess out of them. Wachovia them for all I care.
A message to Matt
Those who know Matt, love him. Those who just read his blog…umm not so much apparently. So let me set you straight on Matt before we go ripping apart the poor, skinny, pale, helpless, misshapen, fragile young man. All jokes aside. Matt is the closest thing to Jesus I know. I think that’s what we all strive for. To be like Jesus? It’s like trying to reach perfection. It is impossible. No one can be perfect. All we can do is strive to become it. He has always been there when I have needed him in the short time I have known him. Thanks buddy. (Cult meeting on Friday, right?)
A message to the masses
I am a broken pathetic person. I sin. I suck at life. But so do you. : ) At least we are in this sad state together. Let’s also try to get out of this state together.
HAVE A BLESSED DAY
