I JUST WANNA LIVE!




We all want a tolerant and free society to live in and yet with so many political problems world wide, we wonder if tolerance will ever be a word of the past instead of one that lurks and confronts us every day.

Let's face it. People are easily offended. We are separated by religions, ethnic groups, cultures, traditions, languages,values, jobs, education levels, genetic incapacities, politics etc....

The only thing we do have in common is that mankind suffers.
We suffer because of our feelings, resulting from all of the above differences.
To all this, we can add
love, hate, emotional and physical pain, stress which leads into automatic, stereotyped judging of people, before we even know them.
For example: We have the gay issue. We are asked if we are pro gay people.
Personally I have nothing for or against them.
Those who I have met I mostly like but like all people, we all have our inbuilt preferences, which has nothing to do with being gay or not gay.

Do I approve of gay marriage? In and of itself , I have nothing against it.

Do I approve gay marriage in church? No. Because you join an institution for the beliefs that it has and because we live in a free society, no one has the power to go inside this institution and force it to go against the established principles and beliefs which made it what it is.

Like most organizations, they disappear on their own once they become outdated.
For something to exist, means there have to be people who believe in it.
So if the gay issue demands respect they also require to show respect towards institutions
which demand certain beliefs and behavior.
To strong arm it into changing the beliefs, changes the organization into a farce and turns it into a circus show instead of the serious entity it was meant to be. It thus destroys the holy concept of marriage and defeats the purpose of why gay people want to marry in church to begin with. If gay people can attack a church and its principles on the grounds of intolerance the same could be said of gay people being intolerant to the beliefs of a church. So things cancel out in free societies.
This I believe also applies to muslim institutions today in general, excepting for the fact, they are in the midst of warring between themselves and the world, using terror.

Do I believe gay people should have children?
Well if it is their own children, then it goes without saying but I believe that once you become an adult, you have a responsibility towards new born innocence.

People have grades in life to pass as well as grades in school, to develop them into mature, self reliant, responsible, accountable adults.
If you skip certain portions of growth or if certain portions are intercepted, you end up missing a part of the whole person you are meant to be and therefore lost and needing to find yourself. Children were designed by nature, to generally be brought up with a male and female union.
The argument is that families can be different and this I agree with totally except that before, children grew up with friends, aunties, uncles, etc... but not a Daddy who is a Mommy and a Mommy who is a Daddy. These roles can't be changed and if they are changed, it presents the child to grow up with a lie . Children have enough confusing issues to deal with growing up without adding this to it.

So here, with the gay issue, we find intolerance from the gay and the straight side but it doesn't mean the gay and straight people reject each others way and means of being.

By rejecting certain people, we only hurt ourselves.
We hurt the development of our own personal growth and brain power. No one learns anything if doors are shut, and life becomes stifled, boring and dull.
We end up developing hate to anything and everything that's different from our comfort zone.This then leads into issues found in warring societies where trust and good decision making, seem to be lacking.

The thing about knowledge, understanding and difference, is that regardless of our beliefs, things always have a 50 - 50% chance of either working out or failing, for many reasons other than the obvious. There are things we can have control over and things we can't. lol

Understanding people and where they are coming from, is already half the battle won and then being understood yourself, is the other half. lol
Each one of us carries both halves.

Finding yourself accepting the 50-50% chances of thinking, seems to make the day go by rather pleasantly because there are no high expectations and therefore fewer disappointments.

In the end we have to consider that our purpose in life is survival. Everyone and everything wants to live and survive.
When faced with instances of global catastrophes, issues of tolerance vs intolerance fade away
and survival comes to the forefront.
If we began to think in terms of survival, as opposed to social differences between people, we would
have fewer problems in this world.:)

Guess what?

TGIF people! :)

Weight of Freedom.

Tolerance to intolerance,

led to intolerance to tolerance which now leads into, intolerance to intolerance.

Tolerance to tolerance will never happen.

It is in another world we call Utopia.It is in another realm of other non existent terms like freedom and liberty and justice and love.All poetic words that mean nothing because they do not exist, except in our dreams and ideals.

As the tolerant make way against intolerance, they open doors to more and more tolerance, till the tolerance goes so far as to make those who opened the doors to tolerance, suffocate or get beheaded by their own hand and words.

There is a thing about words like "freedom" and " tolerance".They need to stay dignified and level.They need to rest on a level plain In free countries they use what is called the”middle of the road approach” and it is kept there, in balance, by educated level headed wise people.It stays balanced and peace reigns.

Today The scale of justice and freedom .is not balanced.

Today it is out of control and heading towards an abyss because the uneducated, unbalanced, unfree, who are intolerant to intolerance are encouraged to tip the scales and send everyone into an abyss along with them.

To pull out an uneducated man from tyranny and giving him full rights,is like giving a baby the right to crawl out onto a busy street because it was born free. The baby is so strong, it takes you with it, to be run over.Not only will that baby either die or get hit and become a living vegetable but it willresult in a calamity of people jumping on everything,from money, rights,justice tolerance intolerance, right and wrong, good or bad....Etc…. all sorts of irrelevant things, when the answer lies in none of those things.

The answer lies in babysitting and looking to the needs of the baby.The baby needs guidance, protection, not rights and freedoms it doesn't understand the meaning of.

Christian values do this. They are there to teach protect and defend.To raise people so they can carry the weight of words that have meaning to us.Christianity gives birth to other progressive things which keep man ahead and alive.Christianity is not there to dictate and abuse and torture but to develop man so he "understands".

To put ones back against Christian teachings is to put ones back to the child that crawls out the front door into traffic.

The “have not” countries live like the baby, except their religions and politics, do not allow them to grow up. Some even attach bombs to the baby and decide for the baby what it needs to do.

You cannot save them. They can’t be saved from themselves because the brain has only so many years to absorb a foundation. After that its not easy and requires special people to help them.

You need 20 – 25 years to re teach for every 7.taught.So if you do not get them the first 7 years of life, you lost them.

It is the same with the baby in the womb.If it is not fed right the first few months of conception, chances of the brain being affected are great and so we have children bornWith alcohol syndrome drug addictions retardation and other things which make them grow up unable to learn and as a result end up in self destructive, criminal behavior and become a noose on society’s back.

It is easier to be a tyrant a warrior, than to be a Christian.

It is easier to tip scales than to keep it balanced.

In our world we leave the duty to keep balance with the people but if the people can’t do it, a tyrant will. A tyrant denies people the right to knowledge and progress.He lies about himself and sells himself and his country out for votes.For a tyrant there is nothing better than having a gullible society which cannot read or think.

Christianity which promotes progress and the self, is therefore hated, abused and stamped on.I think this is something to think about. Sometimes religion is not the opiate of the people but simply just a self help guide

To help man help himself.

Today the people who lead us are not honorable men . They dance in front of "balance" trying to create a niche to fit in and they don’t care which side its on. and those who try to be honorable, supporting the status quo, are getting eaten alive.

The people are losing. Christianity is losing. Good living is losing.

So what is it exactly that we are unhappy about? Having balanced families and children? Having food water and shelter?Having freedom to read write and create? Having a voice to speak?

Having our bodies and brain saved from self destruction?
We cannot help the fallen because the fallen need special help. The fallen will not get the help they need because it requires a Christian to give it.Otherwise it becomes too expensive.

Christian values give birth to other progressive things which keep man educated, employed, ahead and alive.To put ones back against Christian teachings is to put ones back to the childthat crawls out the front door into traffic. No one will care if the child lives or dies for what butour conscience stops man from becoming a killer and a predator?

It is easier to become a tyrant, a warrior, than to be a Christian. Once a tyrant tastes blood, the second kill becomes easier. This is why Christianity teaches to turn the other cheek but not to be a fool as to give up your life. Otherwise, there would be no point to having children.

It is easier to tip scales than to keep it balanced and wise people, who love their country, need to live true to words, the American Dream was built on.

In God We Trust.
