What Christian Youth are being Taught

So, today I was looking back on my life as a member of the Catholic/Christian churches... When I was wondering HEY, what was I being taught back then? So now that I look back to it... here is what I remember.

I remember being taught that homosexuality is wrong, and since I was only in Catholic Sunday school for the earlier years of my life, this would have to mean that the Catholic church was teaching me about homosexuality!!! How hypocritical for them to demonize us for having the remote possibility of the existence of homosexuality taught in schools. Yet there they are, teaching it to their young followers!? What do you think about this extreme irony...

I remember being taught how wrong it was... So is it right to teach that it is wrong. But it's not right to teach that it is right? These Right Wing Extremists quite possibly astound me in how hypocritical they are and how they think they are always right, even when the proof is right in front of their noses!

Last night I also saw a heart filled video posted by a Keith Olbermann

No On Prop 8 Protests Continue! YES WE CAN!

The past few days Prop 8 No supporters took to the streets in protest against the ban on same sex marriage. Many say, "This is a violation of our rights as Human beings." Throughout many major city's of California you could hear the echoes of the protest. They screamed from their hearts to be heard by all, that we weren't going down without a fight. That we weren't going to let this injustice continue!

Personal thanks to SeanChapin1 for the video!

• Throughout the streets of Los Angelus, San Fransisco, and other city's we can hear the voices of our friends, daughters, children, parents, family screaming. "WHAT DO WE WANT? EQUALITY!!! WHEN DO WE WANT IT? NOW!!!" Truly this is proof of the injustice done upon these people. I will hope that we all get this victory over the Proposition 8, over the hate and lies, extortion and child exploitation, spread by various Yes on Prop 8 Campaigners.
  
  
  • An estimate of nearly 7000+ people have been protesting each day! Several news station claimed the numbers were as high as 25,000. Surely this speaks volumes!
  
  
• If you see one of these protests and believe in it, join it! March with us for the cause of our lives, I am far away but no matter what my heart is marching with them, and I am posting here and there to fight this great injustice! Just remember if you protest, stay peaceful, stay respectful, ( yes even to the Mormons ) don't make the Police do something they or you'd regret.
  
  
• Yes we may be a pain in someones side, but we have to do this for everyones future, for everyones rights... To be heard, to have JUSTICE AND LIBERTY FOR ALL. If that causes a few Traffic Jams then I think that is a small price to pay! So in the words of so many, YES WE CAN!!! YES WE CAN!!!

CONTINUE THE FIGHT,

GAY, STRAIGHT, BLACK, WHITE! MARRIAGE IS A CIVIL RIGHT!

Same Sex Marriage Bans

Proposition Hate as we know it, Well I have held this post back for a couple of days in hope that perhaps the numbers would change. But now that reality has clearly passed. I spent a great deal of my time trying to reach as many people as I could. While my time spent was no where near in comparison to others such as those of NCLR...

• I feel that our loss can also be a victory, around the year 2000 in California there was Proposition 22 which was the same sex marriage ban of it's time... During that time we were almost 23% behind in polls. This year, we have accomplished something never done before, we have gained on the opposition by at least 18%. We were only 4% behind in the polls.
  
  
• This gain is not without great suffering, of course... The fact is that the same religious groups who lied, cheated, extorted and exploited children are now most likely going to target the currently married lesbian and gay marriages. They will not be happy until everyone of us is a second class citizen. Damaging to over 18,000 currently married couples and over 52,000 children who's parents are lesbian/gay in California... Surely they are the epitome of evil.
  
  
• So we must not give up! Our fight is far from over, they shall ultimately lose this battle. They lost their battle against interracial couples. Their beliefs are a dying breed and our rights are far from a weak cause, stronger than their faith, then their hatred. WE WILL PREVAIL.

The good shall always Triumph over the filth of Evil. We just need to fight a bit longer, maybe 10-20 years longer... But our victory will be our gift to our children, our family's children, and their children. We aren't just fighting for our rights, but everyones right.
