Okay, so I know that last update was really long and probably boring to many(all one) of you. So, ignore it if you don't want to read about my ramblings on wargaming.
Two things today I want to talk about. It seems I'm becomming more and more amused at the views of some far right wing conservative christians. Which is kind of odd, but there you go.
First, a couple of weeks ago, this letter to the editor appeared in The Free-Lance Star. The guy is basically saying that homosexuality is abnormal and a disease, and needs to be cured. Well, someone else wrote a letter a few days ago, parodying this guy's logic. It's REALLLY funny. Observe:
I want to thank Al Rios for sharing his insight on homosexuality as a disease ["Science hasn't shown that homosexuality's a 'given,'" July 15]. Webster says the word "abnormal" means not "normal, not average, not typical," and the word "disease" refers to health and illness. Mr. Rios' contention, however, is that any abnormal function of the body, even if it has no effect on health, is a disease.
That being the case, I want to point out another diseased group: lefties. To use Mr. Rios' words: "The majority of humans throughout history has been socially and culturally" right-handed. That makes the natural inclinations of a left-handed person different. Not average. Not normal. In other words, the body of a left-handed person functions abnormally and is, according to Mr. Rios, diseased.
Do we hate these people? No, but they must be cured.
Society once took "proper action." Schools forced inflicted children to use their "proper' hand, and parents were told to tie down the offending appendage while at dinner so the "normal" hand would hold the fork. Even so, some of these diseased children would be caught in their room, late at night, doing unspeakably abnormal things with a pencil or ball.
Still, progress was being made; children were being cured, until those bleeding-heart liberals on the "left" (A coincidence? I don't think so) started telling lefties that they weren't diseased, just different. And slowly, one by one, they started "coming out of the glove." Now some of them are brazen enough to even demand their own scissors.
What is next. Left-handers in the military? Sure, we can teach them to salute with their right hand, but in the shower room, when decent right-handers are at their most vulnerable, I think we all know in which hand these miscreants will be holding the soap. And what about adoption? How could two left-handed people possibly raise a child to be right-handed?
It is shocking. It is an outrage. It must be stopped.
HA! I found it highly amusing.
Second, I was reading another article somewhere in which someone basically said that anything that got in the way of a pregnancy was abortion, specifically contraceptives and birth control. Latex is murder! Okay, so if anything that gets in the way of a pregnancy is abortion, then everyone should cease doing things that prevent pregnancies from occuring. Well, abstinence is preventing pregnancies. Look at all the people who abstain from sex who could be getting pregnant or getting other people pregnant! It's horrible, all the abortions they're doing! They need to start having sex, and right now. And for those poeple that are having sex, well, they need to be having sex all the time. The horrible people think they can sleep and eat and go to work without having sex, they're murdering millions of infants too! And I highly doubt that most of them are having sex with lots and lots of people. Afterall, the more partners you have the better chance they or you will become pregnant. So that's the only solution to this horrible horrible abortion problem. EVeryone must have as much sex as possible with as many people as possible. It's the only way!
HA!
Not that I believe it, but it does kind of follow from that person's logic.
Kind of.
On another note, Eddie is coming to DC on Monday the 27th, and Tuesday the 28th of October. Warner Theater. I'm SO there.
