Freedom of religion MY ASS!!!!!

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." What that means to me is that everyone has the right to practice their CHOSEN religion, even if that mean no religion at all. What that also means to me is that government is not to respect any ONE religion over the other, religion has no place in ANY governmental decisions. I hear a lot of talk about Kentucky clerk Kim Davis and her religious rights, lets get one thing clear. When you take a government job YOU NEED TO LEAVE YOUR RELIGION AT THE DOOR before you go to work. If you don't then you let you religion cloud your workplace decisions and the ability to do your job. Which is EXACTLY what is happening in Kentucky!!!! This country was founded on religious liberty and people escaping religious persecution. Kim Davis is NOT being persecuted for her beliefs!!! She is using her beliefs to persecute other people!!!!! By telling people she cannot grant them a marriage license because of HER beliefs, she is persecuting them!!!!! She is forcing HER beliefs on them, and denying them a constitutional right!!! People like Kim Davis are flat out WRONG!!!! Christians like these people are why I stopped going to church in the first place! But then again I'm sure Kim believes that letting two men marry violates the sanctity or her FOURTH marriage!!!!

Stream of.....

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, just haven't been feeling it lately. So, I just felt like posting a random thoughts blog...here goes.... If Scott Walker is the best the GOP has to offer right now, then the future looks very bright for Democrats! He most likely wouldn't even carry his own state!!!! Love how President Obama is handling most things....setting the agenda and forcing the GOP to oppose programs that favor everyday people, yeah I think that majority in the Senate will be short lived!!! Loretta Lynch, highly qualified.....but I'm not a fan!!! Why does John McCain ALWAYS want to go to war at the drop of a hat? And don't even get me started about his puppy Lindsey Graham!!!! Vaccination is an issue now? Really??? Thanks a lot to Faux News and idiots like Michele Bachmann and Jenny McCarthy!!! Sarah Palin and Donald Trump are MORONS!!!!! Just in case you forgot! Brian Williams lying about being shot down is incredibly stupid, it minimizes what people who have actually gone through being shot down. That being said, all this outrage is a little much, I mean Faux News has been lying about things for years and look at them!!! Normalizing relations with Cuba makes sense...NOW BRING ON THE CIGARS!!!! Not a fan of the TPP...NAFTA on steroids!!!! Keystone XL sucks!!!!! and finally... ISIS CAN FUCK OFF AND DIE!!!!!

Religion and lack thereof....

Hey there, took some time off, but am back now for more!!! I have been over the past few days trying to process the attacks on the office of "Charlie Hedbo," Bill Maher, and religion in general. Let me say that I despise religious extremism on ALL fronts, suicide bombings, plane hijackings, abortion clinic vandalism and harassment, the list goes on.... I HATE it all!!!! Christopher Hitchens said in his book GOD IS NOT GREAT, that religion poisons everything....it was even in the title! Bill Maher has recently said ALL religion is "stupid and dangerous." While I don't go FULL Maher on this, I do agree with the sentiment about religion. GOP lawmakers, and some Dems, oppose certain things because of their religious beliefs (abortion, marriage equality, science). Similarly, terrorist activities are being carried out in the name of twisted interpretations of faith. Back when I was young when I heard that somebody was a Christian, I thought they were basically a nice person who didn't swear, and listened to shitty music. and watched dumb TV shows. Now saying that brings up a whole different reaction, it makes me think of someone who is homophobic, judgmental, and just generally not very nice at all!!!! Religion can be an ok thing but these people have clearly, lost their way in that regard. Same with people of the Middle Eastern faiths, basically decent people who don't wish harm on anyone. Like Christians, their faith is most often represented by extremist, ignorant assholes!!! This all has led me to the conclusion to take a break from all religion for the time being. Nobody's faith is more important than any other's, we need to get back to that before I will step back into any house of worship. You NEVER see any acts of terror by atheists!!!!! And my personal message to those MORONS who carried out and support the attacks in France, if your faith is threatened that much by satirists then your faith is pretty worthless!!!!
