THE TYRANNY OF THE BIBLICAL MAJORITY



There is NO secret recipe for life on this planet, yet there are individuals who move through life with the colored perception of what GOD WANTS. So for centuries these persons in this unpredictable AND chaotic world, these individuals have used THE BIBLE as a way to keep a certain group of society subordinate. Those who feel that they possess the power define those who they feel are powerless; and then impose their own definition on the ones defined. The guiding principle is to ensure the comfort, the convenience, the happiness, and the well-being of the dominant ones. It HURTS my soul SO much to know that there are persons out there that have such unnecessary HATE for men and women like me; and to make matter worst, SO many of them don’t even care to know the facts about the lives we live…Why should anyone get themselves involved in such a controversial subject like homosexuality unless they absolutely have to…right? Hence it is easier for them to interpret us as THE sign of hell N’ damnation? I often wonder if they realize who made us when they think of the disgusting image of SAME-SEX individuals being together. However, I am under the impression that since it is NONE of their business, they just need to move on and start thinking about something they actually know something about! Is it our fault that they don’t understand who we are? Is there a legitimate reason to put a whole class of people on GOD’S bad list when their bible says NOT to judge? Their actions CLEARLY shows that they have a limited understanding of the book they follow, the world around them AND the complexities of homosexuals. Their book tells them that ONLY GOD can judge us yet in their quest to feel superior AND sanctified they either don’t get it or…sorry there is NO other excuse…THEY JUST DON’T GET IT! As a result of this, they then out of ignorance N’ fear VIGOROUSLY defend the words out of a book rather than leave well intentioned humans alone…SO much for entering THEIR GOD’S KINGDOM through the narrow gate…I wonder if we will ever find the gateway that is small where the road is narrow? I suppose life is TOO hard and it is SO easy just to do and believe what everybody else around you believes, especially about a particularly controversial issue such as homosexuality…right? After all, what would God say? F&CK WHAT GOD WANTS FOR US AS HUMAN IS THEIR MOTTO BECAUSE THEY ARE HELL BENT ON LIVING WITH BLINDERS THAT CREATE A RESTRICTIVE TUNNEL VISION. CAN WE BLAME THEM FOR NOT WANTING US TO BE HAPPY WHEN THEY AREN’T? THEIR FOCUSING ON OUR IMMORAL AGENDA KEEPS THEM FROM SEEING THE REAL TRUTH…& IF THERE IS A 2,000 YEAR BELIEF THAT HOMOSEXUALITY IS A SIN, HOW CAN WE COME ALONG & SAY THAT THE CHURCH HAS BEEN WRONG ALL THIS TIME? I SAY WE CAN BECAUSE OF THE MYOPIC VIEW THEY HAVE AND THE ISOLATION BETWEEN US & THEM IS THE MAIN REASON WE CAN SAY THEY ARE SO WRONG…SO F&CK THE BIBICAL TYRANNY OF THE MAJORITY! I KNOW I DO WITH EVERY BREATH THAT LEAVES THIS BODY OF MINE…

  3. There are plenty of other abominations in the bible that so-called Christians conveniently forget about because it doesn't suit them. Selective quote-mining of the text doesn't benefit anyone. What we see here is the worst form of human behaviour - the majority ganging together to pick on a minority. What would Jesus do? Disown the modern church, that's for sure!

  8. Hello kiddo. I'm not sure if I understand what you mean by that opening line. But that's a topic for another day.

    Anyway, I was also thinking this past Saturday why there's such hostility & misunderstanding between what you call the biblical majority & the rest of society. The more I thought about it, the more it didn't make sense.

    I often hear, when people want to justify why homosexuality is not 'normal', that the bible says God created Adam & Eve & not Adam & Steve.

    It is as if Adam & Eve were God's first creation & prototype human beings; that all man descended from these two. Unless I have misread the bible, Genesis 1 v26 & 27; Genesis 4 v14, 16 & 17 clearly show that there were other people, other than Adam & Eve, living in the world. Granted, the bible does not say much about these people, but it would be ridiculous to think that everyone on earth was just heterosexual. Can you picture such a world? It's bizzare.

    So why does the bible make specific mention of Adam & Eve? In my humble opinion, the bible was not demonstrating that God created man & woman heterosexual. It was trying to illustrate to us how it came to be that man fell from grace. That's all.

    And then people also point to the story of Soddom & Gomorrah & how God destroyed that city because of the 'immoral' homosexual behaviour of some of the men who lived there. But this is absurd. My understanding is that the bible was demonstrating how people had become lawless & no longer respected God. If I remember correctly, those men wanted to have sex with the two angels who had arrived in Lot's house. I don't think homosexuality had anything to do with God's anger. If that was the case, does it mean the whole town with the exception of Lot & his family, was inhabitated by gay men & women? That's plain stupid.

    From what I see from the bible, God had always punished, indiscriminately, anyone who did what was not right. Including his chosen ones:

    1. Didn't God punish King David when he took another man's wife & had her husband killed? HE killed David's newborn son & caused divisions in David's family. Even David's son temporarily took away his rule & slept with his father's wives in full view of everyone.

    2. Didn't God take away ten tribes from King Solomon's rule & gave them to one of his officers because Solomon in his old age had started to worship foreign gods?

    3. Didn't God punish King Nebuchadnezzar for his arrogance? He lived like a wild animal until he had the sense to acknowledge God.

    4. Not even Moses entered the promised land.

    What has whom you love & where you put your organ got to do with anything? It's stupid. In my humble opinion.

  9. Organized religions are and always have been meant for political issues of power over populations and Christianity makes no difference in the balance. Arrivists studied the fears and credulity of their populations then built storylines about their deities so to gain political power by proxy, by closeness to the superpower, just like your aunt gains interest from the credulous by claiming she can stop bleeding. And it hasn't changed a single bit, with Bush claiming the war on Afghanistan was a holy one, and leaders in the Oriental world engaging in Fatwas over people who don't submit to their religious beliefs. We don't possess any kind of knowledge about the existence of the supernatural, let alone what these supernatural beings would think if they were to exist. Seeing as it's clear that dogmatic books have all been written by humans in quest of power, their value is not any higher than any popular fantasy book, if these people want to believe in their dogmas then they should accept the word "faith" as it really is, a blind BELIEF in UNPROVABLE things, not a KNOWLEDGE of any kind. Without any kind of knowledge, one should not enforce their beliefs onto another for their beliefs don't provide any more knowledge than any other kinds of beliefs. Before condemning us heathens for everything they don't agree with, I would suggest Christians to check in their wardrobe at their clothes so nothing in there is made of more than one brand, because as it says in the book of Leviticus, it is a sin to wear clothes made with two brands of fabrics.

  11. From my blog:
    "I have heard in the past so many of your Christian friends express an erroneous concept of what America is. America is not a Christian nation. It never was and never would be. Our Founding Fathers were very specific about that and were determined that there would be a separation of church and state. So please, stop insisting in turning this country into a theocracy. There are millions of people like me who will not stand for it.

    I will fight for your right to believe and to worship as you see fit. That is more than I can say for you because not only would you not do that for me, but you have proven in the past to discriminate and punish people like me who have no religious inclinations.

    I think that if you were to carry it through, and you finally were able to establish that this country is a Christian nation, you would find very little differences between your Theocratic America and the Islamic Republic of Iran. Intolerance, authoritarianism, oppression, peremptoriness, and a reign of terror would prevail in America just like it does in Iran."
