1 Man and 1 Woman
Tonight I stumbled on a press conference on the PCN (Pennsylvania Cable Network) regarding a possible amendment to Pennsylvania law that would define marriage as being between a man and a woman. There was a group of people in opposition to the change representing the gay and lesbian community who were voicing their concerns.
Let me continue by first saying that I have nothing against gay and lesbian people. Let's get that out of the way right at the get go. I do have a problem with their choice of lifestyle. I believe that it is strictly prohibited by God. End of story. I'm sorry that these people feel like people are trying to make them "second class citizens." They're not. They're simply saying marriage is between a man and a woman, as God, who just happens to be the One that created marriage, intended it. Please tell me, if all living beings were homosexual, how would there by any reproduction? How would life continue on? If we want to get a little more into the nitty gritty, look at male and female anatomy. They seem to fit together quite nicely, I'd say.
It bothers me when I hear people saying (as they did tonight) that they believe in a loving God who basically supports their alternative lifestyle. I'm sorry, no He doesn't. That is made quite clear throughout the Bible. And your church you're attending is not preaching the truth to you if they're not telling you that you need to change your lifestyle.
And while we're at it, don't call me a homophobe because I don't agree with homosexuality. I'm not afraid of homosexual people at all. I just don't agree with their lifestyle. I believe that term was coined to really make people like myself come off in a bad light. You don't agree with the gay agenda...boom you're a homophobe, and that sounds dirty and scary.
If you want the truth on how to live your life, turn to the Bible. I'll be the first to admit that I don't get it right nearly as often as I should, but I try.
That's my $.02 for the night. What's yours?

Steelers
Today we had the joy of watching the Steelers pretty much manhandle the Denver Broncos with some good friends. A great time was had by all. There was lots of good food, good friends, and some great football. I must admit that I was a little worried that Denver might beat Pittsburgh, but they really pretty much dominated the game. I hope to see the exact same thing happen in two weeks.
GO STEELERS!
GO STEELERS!

Alito and Abortion
Last week or maybe it was the week before, I was reading an article about the Alito confirmation hearings on NewsMax. I can't find the article now, but the Democratic senator made a comment to the effect of, "since abortion has been around for so long, we can't just go overturning it now."
May I just say that I'm glad that this person was not in charge when slavery and other issues in this country have needed to be overturned. What if the people who were instrumental in those cases just said that since that was the way it had been for so long that they couldn't just go changing things? Can you imagine what our country what would be like? I sure wouldn't want to.
I think abortion is a blight a VERY big blight on this country's history. How you can get away without calling it anything but murder is beyond me and it really flies in the face of rational thought. Especially partial birth abortion. How come the baby is a baby as soon as it's delivered, but up until then it's pretty much all out on war on the unborn fetus? Please explain that one to me.
Yes, the child is in your body, which is your body, but the child is not a part of your body. The child is its own living being. It has a heart, it has a mind, it has a soul, it has a spirit. Please explain to me why it's OK to just dispose of them like an annoying piece of garbage. Someone, please do that.

Google Cube
Would you buy a Google Cube (the supposed soon-to-be-announced Google PC) for $200? I know I would if I had $200 laying around to do something with. I think I would get it mostly for the history - the first ever PC made by Google. I think it would be great if they could make a cheap, easy for a novice user to use, computer. The fact that it might not run Windows, well that's just an added benefit. If the rumors are true, we'll hear something during Larry Page's (one of Google's co-creators) speech during this weeks' Consumer Electronics Show.
