Yeah, Let’s Boycott the ENTIRE STATE of Utah!
Saturday, November 8th, 2008
I will write more about this. For now, suffice to say I am not going to sit down any more and allow this kind of bigoted hypocrisy continue. People are so fast to forget their god now that the @#$% hits the fan regarding their believe systems.
Utah faces boycott after Mormon work for Prop 8
Some talking points:
- “The main focus is going to be going after the Utah brand,” he said. “At this point, honestly, we’re going to destroy the Utah brand. It is a hate state.”
What a blatant, bigoted attack! Lets destroy (notice the usage of the word here, no hate in that right) the Utah brand. It is a hate (yeah, lets let the pot call the kettle black shall we?) state. Unbelievable!
The more I ponder this, the less I focus on proposition 8 and more on the hypocrisy of the special interest groups (in this case the gay and lesbian groups), and their blatant intolerance to those that may have contradictory opinions about issues that affect everyone.
Update
I have come to realize I was a tad irate while all of this was happening. When it comes to being attacked, I take it a bit personally. Hopefully all this will all just fizzle out as most things like this do.

My Sentiments Exactly, Glenn Beck
Wednesday, January 30th, 2008
I do not subscribe to Glenn Beck, nor do I claim to know a whole lot about him other than he is a conservative, LDS radio/TV talk show host. However, tonight I saw something from him via KSL/YouTube that was touching. His comments reflected some of my feelings of the passing of President Gordon B. Hinckley. I have been wanting to write something about it the past few days, but could not find the words to express myself properly. Thank you Mr. Beck for putting in to words what my lack of time and eloquence could hope to muster right now.

I’m sick of so-called pro-family NFPO’s

Today, I received my last official e-mail SPAM from AFA (America Family Association). I’m officially removing myself form their forsaken, over hyped, hyper-reactive, illogical, insecure, anti-societal stronghold. This last e-mail was the straw that broke the camel’s back, hammered the nail on the coffin, whatever idiom you wish to apply on this. My response to them can be read below:
My goodness! It’s a documentary. Documentaries are made to be informational, theory or factual based perceptions of societal hot-topics. This is a scientific discovery that in no way slams my belief in Christ. I can choose to believe in it (or watch it for that fact) or not. Please try to focus on things that really matter. The greatest threat to Christianity is disbelief, not information. Christ and god are real, thus no amount of information, science, etc can curtail that belief in Christ. The fact you are trying so hard to combat this belittles the concept of "faith" and belief in god based on faith. Perhaps a better approach, rather than attempting an information coup, would be to offer your rebuttal through well produced Christian focused documentaries and such. Just because someone takes the initiative to produce a documentary about hard evidence and vague theory, doesn’t make them the anti-christ.
Incidentally, my e-mail bounced back due to a "Account has reached the allocation limit"
PS: I have decided to allow comments on this one, as I know many of you will have something to say to this.
