To "Spiritual Leaders" of the United States and the "Religious Right": PART TWO

You know, I was hoping to save part two of my open letter for later on in the summer, but after the garbage that's been in the news, lately, I guess I'll be making more than two parts to this open letter. You know, I'm getting pretty tired of having to keep writing these kind of posts on my blog, but since you haven't opened your ears/eyes yet, let me help you once again.

You want to know something? The majority of the LGBT community will have a better chance of getting into heaven than you and the rest of your bigoted, fear-mongering, genocide-calling friends. Want to know why? Because the LGBT community is fighting for the RIGHT THING. They're fighting for the right to have a consentual, loving relationship with the person they choose to be with, regardless of gender. They're fighting for the right to be happy, safe and healthy. They're fighting to stop the bullying-caused deaths that have been happening on a regular basis. They're fighting against HATE and the fear of death.

To sum it up so that maybe, just maybe you'll get it? They're fighting for EXACTLY what YOUR GOD wanted people to fight for.

You know why you don't stand a chance of entering the gates of Heaven? Because you promote everything that YOUR GOD was against. You fight for the right to tax the poor. You fight for the right to bully others. You fight for the right to force your religion on others without their consent. You fight for the right to harm women and children. YOU fight for the right to advocate the murder of innocent people in the LGBT community just because you don't understand, nor will you ever, what that community is all about. You fight for the right to withhold proper medical care from anyone who does not believe the same as you, for example, contraception. You fight for the right to make poor families suffer without proper medical care or access to government services that might help them get on their feet and do something with their lives. You fight for the right to teach children LIES. You fight for the right to force children to be ignorant about important facts.

And the minute you do any of the above, you become a Fascist. Every time you say that Gays (or anyone) should be put to death, you become JUST. LIKE. HITLER. Yeah, I said it. And I mean it.

You know what you'll never understand about the Bible? (Other than it was written by a MAN) You'll never understand the most important passage in the entire book: "For God so loved the World, that he gave his only begotten Son, so that whoever believes in him shall have eternal life" . Jesus promoted love, not hate. Forgiveness, not anger. Honesty instead of lying. And for crying out loud, please PLEASE go back and read that book. Read it like you're viewing it from a bullied teenager's eyes. Read it like you've just found out that it's just a story book. Read it and realize that half of what the Apostles taught after Christ died were things that Jesus didn't even mention. You think He and God would be advocating for the death of one of their own? If you do think that, I guess I'll be seeing you in Hell.

You need to understand that it's not necessary for everyone to believe as you do. There's nothing wrong with sharing your Religion, but you need to STOP forcing your beliefs on others. THAT is morally wrong. THAT is called RELIGIOUS TERRORISM. Don't believe me? Google Religious Terrorism and read the official definition.


And by no means am I done. I'll fight until you get it. So will the rest of us. And ultimately, it won't be us losing; It will be you.

An Open Letter to the "Spiritual Leaders" of the United States and the "Religious Right" PART ONE

Hello. Let me introduce myself. My name is Krystina. I'm a Minister's daughter and Granddaughter. I'm also a single mother, and I'm gay.

Now, I'm sure some of you just rolled your eyes, said to yourself "Oh great, another sinner who just wants to get her two cents in" and moved on, but for the rest of you, I hope you'll read on. This open letter isn't necessarily to scream at you for imposing your beliefs on others. Consider this to just be a letter to you. I won't be going on about Leviticus, or any of those other verses that are so widely misused.

First off, I'd actually like to thank you. Why? Because I've never had so many people concerned about my soul. So thank you. But you needn't worry. You see, my soul and I, we're doing okay. I'm at peace with myself and with my God. Why? I'll tell you, but please be patient, as this might take a little bit of explaining.

There was a point in my life where I hated all things religious. Not because of what my father taught as a Minister. I hated it because other religions/religious leaders had taught me that if I were to be myself, I would be angering God, and angering my peers. And it made for a very ugly time in my life. Finally, I had enough of living with anger and hate, and I went to go see a Minister friend of mine. I told him exactly what had gone on in my life, about knowing since I was very small that I was Gay, and how watching others be persecuted for that made me feel like I was worthless and irrelevant. He counseled me through it, and shared with me something so interesting and relevant, that I was surprised I hadn't seen it before. But when you've got angry blinders on, it's hard to see anything else. He taught me the following:

Every day that I fear living my life truthfully, I break the Ten Commandments. Every time I hate, I break the Ten Commandments. I break Christ's teaching. How? Because Fear begets anger, and anger begets hate and hate begets sin. By lying about who I am, I dishonor my father and mother. I don't honor the Lord, my God. I was committing murder. Of my own soul. I was stealing my own life. And I envied everyone who was straight and "True".  And by lying to myself, I was not honoring Christ, as he abhorred lying. With just that tiny bit, I was committing my soul to hell.

You see, God doesn't hate Gay people. I'm pretty sure he's got other things to worry about that are much more important than someone just trying to live their lives honestly.

But, I think the most important lesson I learned from my Minister friend and from my father, was this:

Treat the Bible like it's a story about being a parent. You make this wonderful, amazing creation, and you resolve to be the best parent you can be. As you proudly watch your pride and joy grow, they suddenly become a toddler. And what do toddlers like to do? They like to stretch their boundaries..touch things they're not supposed to. I think of Adam and Eve like that, in a way. And when your toddler does something they know they're not supposed to, what's a parent to do? They discipline. Although I really don't recommend disciplining your actual child like the old testament, with fire and brimstone, unless getting up in the middle of the night to tend to nightmares is your thing.

The Old Testament is a lot like disciplining a rebellious a child that grows from toddler to teenager. Threats are made, rules are enforced, and you impose your will upon them to try and keep them on the straight and narrow. If you read towards the end of the Old Testament and into the beginning of the New Testament, you might see that now that God is no longer a "first time parent", he's realized that maybe the fire and brimstone approach isn't really working..It hasn't solved anything, it's just made some of his "children" more rebellious, or the opposite, zealous in adhering to his anger. And so he decides that maybe it's time to try something new. Love and acceptance, negotiating and listening instead of obedience and a force of will.

So, in the New Testament, to show that he's mellowed with age and really does love us, he sends his "only son" Jesus. And he tells us that Jesus will make a difference and show to us what God is really all about. And he tells us that Jesus will sacrifice himself so that we will become "clean again". A blank slate, so to speak. Jesus talks about what really pisses God off, and what really makes him happy. Like when you're negotiating with a strong-willed teenager or young adult that's about to spread their wings and learn what life's really all about. You desperately want to make sure they're prepared, and you realize that maybe they do get it more than you thought, especially when you treated them with respect and love, instead of harsh punishments and anger.

I think God's approach in the New Testament was so much more effective than the Old Testament, and I believe that he did this to counter his "early years".  Like my own father did as I was growing up. He started with the warnings and restrictions, etc., as I began to rebel. But as I grew older, he realized that being a "parental bully" really didn't help things. So he switched tactics. He encouraged me to find out who I am, to question everything and form my own beliefs, asked me to respect others and remain true to myself.

As further proof to that in regards to my own life, my parents knew I was unhappy, but they didn't know why. And when I finally got the courage to come out the them, instead of rebuking me or distancing themselves from me, they celebrated with me. My father told me later, that during my darker times, he used to pray that I would find whatever it was that would make me actually like myself, view myself as an asset, rather than a bane to society. And when he saw how at peace with myself because of finally being able to have the confidence to be me, he was relieved. Both my parents have told and shown me that they will love me NO MATTER WHAT. And, because I love my family, I must remain true to who I am, who I was born to be. To honor my mother and my father.

I still read the Bible. It's helped me through some tough times. And I believe in God. But when I read the Bible, I remember that it was written by Man. Through stories told from generation to generation. And if you read it properly, you'd note that the only places in the Bible that Jesus Christ actually is noted as speaking is Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. And the further you get into the Bible past that, if you read it with not only an open mind, but an open heart, you realize that the apostles actually started to preach things that had never even come out of Jesus' mouth. Makes you wonder just who's agenda was really being pushed. It's the same in the Old Testament. Other than a handful of times after the Garden of Eden, God rarely speaks. It's the men in the story doing all the talking. I'm not bashing the Bible, even though I'm sure it seems that way to some. I just want you to know my point of view. Because my point of view is just as relevant as yours.

You know the most interesting quote from Jesus? It was when he spoke about worship. He spoke about how God hated it when people made a big deal out of worship. Like they wanted everyone to see just how pious they were. Jesus said that God loved it when someone worshipped him without anyone around to worship it, as that was when the heart was the most pure, there was no real agenda. Just communication. That's how I build my spirituality. That's my religion. I talk to God in my living room. I worship him whenever I go for a walk with my little one and point out how beautiful this planet is. I honor my God by teaching my child to love others, to accept and tolerate, and to be grateful.

I'm going to close this part of my letter to you with the following questions. When you go to Church, do you feel filled up with the love, power and glory of God? Or your own self-importance? Do you go to Church to feel closer to God? Or to be seen by those you deem important? Ask yourselves these questions. And think hard before you answer. And be honest. Because Lying is a sin.

So again, thank you. But my soul and I? We're just fine.

With Regards,

An Ordinary Woman

Hello, Fellow Suffragettes and Suffragents;


This week has been a week of celebration. On May 9, 2012, the President of the United States came out in support of same-sex marriage. Not literally, of course, but the video above is of him endorsing it.

Some have breathed a huge sigh of relief, because they feel a little less persecuted. As they should. The President endorsing same-sex marriage is a HUGE victory for the LGBT community.

Others have worried even more.."What will this do to his campaign?" What if he loses the election over this?" "What if the Bigots and Extremists try to do something about this?" What if. What if. What if. Let me tell you. These concerns are legitimate, but if you think about it, this should be an empowering moment.

You see, up until May 9, 2012, we have never had a President publicly announce that he was in favor of same-sex marriage. Sure, we had some politicians quietly promising us that they would endorse us once the reached the Oval Office, but this is the first time I've ever seen that happen.

Now, of course some activists are a little critical about Obama's timing with this announcement...Some think the timing is questionable, but let me present you with the following:

When VP Joe Biden went out and said he supported Gay rights, etc., he actually pushed the President's hand. From what I've read/learned from sources, the President took the time to do some soul searching about such a volatile subject. He asked people he respected for their opinions, he weighed them against what he believes in, and made the choice to show his support. If anything, this proves that the U.S. FINALLY has an open-minded President. I believe that he did not endorse same-sex marriage before this, because he didn't want to make it a campaign issue. A mistake on his part, sure, but with all the craziness and hype of this particular campaign, and with so many issues to wade through, this was not at the top of his list. Rightly so. The economy, for one, is pretty important. And he's had some extremely unstable Presidential Candidates to fight against. I believe Obama would have endorsed either way, but wanted to wait until closer to November, or after he had won. But, since he wasn't able to wait until then, I personally think he chose a near-perfect time to "come out". Biden had already made his opinion heard, and then the vote in North Carolina for Amendment One happened. And the timing of Obama's endorsement was perfect after that whole circus of bigotry.

I've been gauging the reaction on FB, Twitter, other social media sites and, of course, the news. It's pretty much split, when it comes to opinion in the LGBT world, as well as the activist world. Some think this will help his campaign, others worry that he will lose crucial votes. I think this will do nothing but help his campaign. By showing that he's really paying attention to what his voters worry about, he's showing that he's open to "evolving" and willing to stick his neck out to help in any way he can, even if it just means saying the words.

And, of course you've got the Right Wing Extremists, the Homophobes, the Zealots and the Bigots weighing in, spewing their hate and fear-mongering. I'm not even going to bother posting links for this, as most of us have seen them. (Plus I'm saving them for a different blog post). All I can say is, that by crawling out of the woodwork to condemn President Obama for doing this, they are yet again showing just why they are dangerous, hypocritical and small-minded.

So, in closing, to President Barack Obama, THANK YOU. Thank you for evolving. Thank you for being open minded. Thank you for wading into an already messy situation. I admire you for that, as it shows that you're not just concerned about the campaign, you're concerned about your citizens and their well-being. This proves to me that you are the ONE person in this circus of a campaign who gets it. And I will endorse you back. And now that you've proven that you've got a brain, and you're not afraid to use it, I hope you'll look at all the other issues and prove to us that you're willing to do what it takes in the war on equality.


And to all my LGBT friends, crack open the bubbly, drink a glass for me. This is a victory for us. Let us take this endorsement and run with it, and learn from it.

Please feel free to comment. Because to be truly informed, you MUST have information! Debate is welcome, but trolls, abuse and threats will be dealt with swiftly.

My friends, as usual, I am grateful. Thank you for enlightening me.

With the deepest of Respect,

An Ordinary Woman

Romney, Obama and Paul; Cleaning Out The Closets Part 3 of 4

Hello my friends,


And welcome to Part Three of my Cleaning Out the Closets of the Presidential Candidates series. Today's subject will be Ron Paul. You don't hear much about Ron Paul, with all the Brouhaha in the media about Mitt Romney, so I consider Ron Paul to be a wild card. I'm not a fan of his. Why? I'll tell you after we sum up his bio. But, regardless of my feelings towards him, I will do my best to remain unbiased and ethical.

So. On to Ron Paul. First, here are your links:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Paul
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electoral_history_of_Ron_Paul
http://www.biography.com/people/ron-paul-265881
http://www.conservapedia.com/Ron_Paul
http://freethoughtblogs.com/dispatches/2011/12/29/ron-pauls-crazy-conspiracy-theories/
http://www.redstate.com/leon_h_wolf/2011/12/27/ron-paul-is-crazy-part-4018663/
http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archives/2011/12/28/let-the-ron-paul-conspiracy-theories-begin


Let's begin, shall we? Ronald Ernest Paul was born August 20, 1935, to Harold and Margaret Paul. There's no real information on Ron Paul's parents that I could find. If you know of any links, please share them. One website I found states that he was born to "Warrior Parent"..not quite sure what to make of that. Apparently from childhood on, his father prepared him physically for battle. His mother taught him everything she could to ensure he would attain a high standing in the future. He eventually almost became like a nemesis to the Rhodes Scholars. He graduated from Gettysburg College with a Bachelor degree in Science. He then continued on to Duke University and earned his M.D. He met his wife Carol, and they later married.

Ron Paul worked as a medical officer in the 1960's, as well as being a OB/GYN. Ron Paul is also a published Author, writing such novels as: The Case for Gold,  Liberty Defined: 50 Essential Issues That Affect Our Freedom, End The Fed, The Revolution: A Manifesto, Pillars of Prosperity, and A Foreign Policy of Freedom: Peace, Commerce, and Honest Friendship

Some people refer to Ron Paul as the "Godfather" of the Tea Party. But, technically, he is a  Paleolibertarian. He supports limited Government,  low taxes, free markets, strict adherence to the Constitution, and a return to monetary policies based on commodity-backed currency. ( I have borrowed heavily from http://www.conservapedia.com/Ron_Paul#Early_life_and_education for this paragraph)


Okay. Now, before we get into the skeleton closet, here is why I'm not a fan. If you read the last couple of  links, you'll notice that they're about conspiracy theories...I'm not a fan of conspiracy theories, as that's ALL they will ever be..theories. Until someone shows up with some cold hard facts, I don't buy into it. BUT. This makes him a wild card. Because, as we all know, there are A LOT of conspiracy theorists out there who would love to have one of their own in power. I'm sure they think he'll blow the lid off of all the Government secrets.

Some more reasons I do not like Ron Paul? He's Racist. He's a Bigot. He's Anti-Choice, he is Anti-gay, and he's Anti-Woman. He also views Social Security as Unconstitutional. In the 80's and 90's he tried to abolish Public Schools.He's against low-income children getting health insurance from the Government. He's against anyone, basically, who isn't a millionaire. He suggests that people who are harassed at their workplace just simply quit their jobs. And the one that pisses me off the most? He voted AGAINST legislation to catch online predators and pedophiles. Here is one of the links for that information:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_positions_of_Ron_Paul

I know, I'm failing miserably at staying unbiased, but in my own personal opinion, this man is just as dangerous, if not more dangerous (due to his obvious instability) than Mitt Romney.

At this rate, do you think there's anything in his Skeleton Closet? Let's take a look:
http://hillbuzz.org/the-skeletons-in-ron-pauls-closet-78991
http://www.realchange.org/ronpaul.htm
http://iowntheworld.com/blog/?p=109991
http://marie-everydaymiracle.blogspot.ca/2011/12/ron-pauls-racist-and-homophobic-closet.html
http://gratewire.com/topic/ron-pauls-skeleton-closet

Okay. When I ran a search for Ron Paul's Skeletons, I got MORE hits than I did for Mitt Romney...that's saying a lot!

Let's go through the most relevant ones.

1985: Ron Paul starts a newsletter that's clearly Racist. You can see some of the quotes throughout the links I've attached. And, of course, in 2001, he tried to deny that he had anything to do with it, blaming everything on a Ghostwriter. - But wait...wouldn't it have had to been approved through you, Ron Paul? Hmmmm...Meanwhile he's been quoting racist views all over the place, appearing on Alex Jones' radio show and spewing hate, and giving interviews to the John Birch Society.

There's no real proof that he's done anything "terrible" in his personal life, and he doesn't seem to have his hand in anyone else's pockets or vice-versa.

As for his conspiracy theories, he seems reluctant to own up to that part of himself, much like he enjoys denying his bigotry. But he continues to associate with Alex Jones, The 9/11 Truthers, and the John Birch Society.


I sincerely hope he's a wild card that gets played and discarded soon, but I do think it's time to keep a closer eye one him. He's been awfully attractive to the younger crowds due to some of his views, as well as to the conspiracy theory crowd.

And that, my friends, is Ron Paul. And I apologize for not being able to remain unbiased with this one. I promise to try harder in the future.

Stay tuned for part Four, which will be out this week.


Please feel free to comment, as to be informed, you MUST have the FACTS. Debate is welcome, but trolls, abuse and violence will be dealt with swiftly.

And to my readers, as usual, thank you. You continue to educate me and support this blog, and I am grateful.


With the highest Respect,

Romney, Obama and Paul..Cleaning out the Closets Part 2 of 4

Hello again, my friends; welcome to Part 2 of my Cleaning Out the Closets of the Presidential Candidates!




Before I start, let me mention that I heard from several people that I hadn't really included anything new about Mitt Romney in the first part of this series. Let me reassure you: I fully intend to, however, you're going to have to wait until part four to see the new items I have discovered. The first three parts of this series is basically just a basic synopsis of all the information out there on the candidates.


So, with that being said, let us continue: Part Two: Barack Obama.


First, the links:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Dunham
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama,_Sr.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolo_Soetoro
http://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/president-obama
http://www.biography.com/people/barack-obama-12782369




Let's start at the beginning: Barack Hussein Obama II was born August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii. His parents were Barack Obama Sr and Stanley Ann Dunham. (To prevent any confusion, Barack Obama Sr will be referred to as Senior, and Barack Obama II will be referred to as Obama). Senior was a senior governmental economist in Kenya. He was born Muslim and Christian, but became an Atheist as a young man. In 1959, Senior went to Hawaii and became the first African (foreign) student at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. It was here that he met Stanley Ann Dunham. Shortly after, she became pregnant. Senior married her in Hawaii, after assuring her that he was divorced. It was revealed later that this was not the truth. Obama was born at  the Kapiolani Maternity and Gynecological Hospital. His birth was announced in The Honolulu Advertiser and the Honolulu Star-Bulletin (as per wikipedia). By 1965, he was divorced from Ann and had returned to Kenya. The only time he chose to see Obama was for one month when he was 10 years old. By 1969, Senior had been blacklisted in Kenya, survived two accidents and had become an alcoholic. In 1982, he died in his third automobile accident.


Obama's mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, was an anthropologist, specializing in Economical Anthropology and Rural Development. At one time, she also worked as a consultant for the United States Agency for International Development. She was 18 when she gave birth to Obama. After divorcing Senior, she met Lolo Soetoro, a surveyor who had come to Hawaii on a grant to study geography. They married, and after graduating, She moved herself and Obama to Indonesia to be with Soetoro. During their time in Indonesia, Ann ensured Obama`s education did not suffer. He continued to have correspondence schooling, and listened to Mahalia Jackson and Martin Luther King jr. Eventually, though, she chose to send Obama back to Hawaii, and enrolled him in Punahou School. She joined Obama eventually, and divorced Soetoro by the end of 1980. In 1994, Ann died from Uterine Cancer. Obama spoke about her death a few times, most notable in 2007:


 "I remember my mother. She was 52 years old when she died of ovarian cancer, and you know what she was thinking about in the last months of her life? She wasn’t thinking about getting well. She wasn't thinking about coming to terms with her own mortality. She had been diagnosed just as she was transitioning between jobs. And she wasn’t sure whether insurance was going to cover the medical expenses because they might consider this a preexisting condition. I remember just being heartbroken, seeing her struggle through the paperwork and the medical bills and the insurance forms. So, I have seen what it's like when somebody you love is suffering because of a broken health care system. And it's wrong. It's not who we are as a people."
(souce: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Dunham).


Obama cites that his mother was the most influential people in his life, as she taught him to question everything. From Religion to Politics. 


Next. Obama is a graduate of Columbia and Harvard. He was the president of the Harvard Law Review, and earned his law degree. From 1992 to 2004, he worked in civil rights law, and taught at the University of Chicago about Constitutional Law. From 1997 to 2004, he also served three terms in the Illinois Senate. In 2004, he ran for the U.S. Senate. And won. With the support of his family, he decided to run for President. In the 2008 primaries, he beat Hillary Clinton and won the nomination. And in November, 2008, he beat McCain and became the 44th President of the United States. 


Upon becoming President, Obama soon realized just what he had inherited: A large debt, unfair laws, and people more than ready to condemn him on every move he made. But, in his Presidency, he has done the following (and much more):  the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009,  Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010,  Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act,  Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act,  Don't Ask, Don't Tell Repeal Act of 2010, Budget Control Act of 2011, and he ended the war in Iraq, increased the troops in Afghanistan, signed the New START A.C. treaty with Russia, became involved in the 2011 Libya military intervention, rid the world of Osama bin Laden. And that's just a few. 


Oh? You'd like a couple more? Why of course! Here you go:


As per Wikipedia, he has also done the following: He made the order to shut down Guatanamo Bay, giving them until January 2010 to close the doors. That didn't happen the way he wanted it to, because Congress would not release or approve the funding that would be necessary to carry that act out. Obama also reduced the secrecy of the Presidential Files, and changed procedures for the Freedom of Information Act, to make access and disclosure easier. He reversed George Bush's ban on federal funding to foreign establishments that allow abortions. He also signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), and the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act. 


There are a lot more, but I'm running out of room. So, on to the next part. In 1989, Obama met Michelle Robinson. They were married in 1992, and proceeded to have two daughters. 


Currently, Obama is campaigning for a second term as President of the United States.




Are there Skeletons in his Closet? Well, everyone has some, so let's see what we can find. Here are the links:
http://www.realchange.org/obama.htm
http://crackercoast.com/crackerchat/showthread.php/16340-And-to-be-fair-Obama-s-Skeleton-Closet

(And YES, again, I'm holding all the real juicy bits for part four!)

The biggest skeletons that these two links show, are that Obama used and documented his use of cocaine, the Solyndra Solar Scandal, Tony Rezko, Bill Ayers, and the fact that his father had been born a Muslim (even though Obama was NOT raised Muslim),


These skeletons are well-documented and public, but still skeletons in the closet.


And that, my friends, is Barack Obama. Next up in Part Three is Ron Paul. Stay tuned.


And once again, you teach me, you inspire me, I am forever grateful for everyone who reads this blog, and for the people who supply me with information.


Please feel free to comment, as to be informed, you must have the information! Debate is welcome, however, trolls, abuse and violence will be dealt with swiftly.
