When the hell did it happen? How long has this been creeping up on us? Like our grandparents watching Hitler invading Europe we just sat and said by the grace it is not affecting me.  We have sat and watched without taking a stance for what is right and now we live in a country, a society, where you are “EXCLUDED” and “PERSACUTED” for not being gay or anti-god. Yes, the United States of America is no longer a Christian nation, but a nation of gay and godless. For those who still hang on to the idea of heterosexuality, marriage, family and believe in a creator greater than a monkey, Yes GOD!, are told that we are wrong and should be ashamed for not accepting the new “hip” way of being gay and godless.

 I am also saddened as my Employer has taken a very strong positive potion on this new gay and godless way as well. I work for one of the top Anti-Virus companies in the world. I have recently asked them if they would consider donating a couple of copies of their product so I could do a Boy Scout Merit badge training in Computers. Here is the reply I got from my great and powerful company:

   Hi Robert. I understand your sentiments, and please know that we are not passing judgment on any individual chapter of the Boy Scouts. However, the national chapter has taken a very public and outspoken stance against homosexuality – this is in direct opposition to <Anti-Virus Company> commitment to ensuring a diverse and inclusive workplace for all employees, regardless of age, sexual orientation, religion, etc.

Unfortunately for the local chapters, the national governing body’s stance has forced a lot of corporate organizations to examine whether the Boy Scout’s philosophy regarding this issue aligns with their own philosophy – in the case of <Anti-Virus Company>, we do not agree with the position they’ve taken.


 So, there it is, if you are not a freaking gay person or a pro gay organization you are not in line with the “Philosophy” and you are excluded.

 As I read this, I am very confused with the words Lora used in her statement. She writes “this is in direct opposition to <Anti-Virus Company> commitment to ensuring a diverse and inclusive workplace for all employees” What does a “diverse and inclusive workplace” mean in this case. I would expect “inclusive” to mean to embrace everything. But according to this Lora who represents Anti-Virus company inclusive means everybody accept the non-gay and God believing.

 I am very frustrated how a group of people like this (godless and gay) have managed to use a 900 pound UCLA to force this country into such shame. And how did we the people of this country, this community, allow it to happen.

 I know the godless and gay people say that this is a natural biological structure in nature. Yes, I am sure there are some DNA errors that cause some people to be gay. But if you follow the liberal Darwin you will find that since it is not possible for gay people to reproduce the DNA errors will not be propagate into the general DNA pool. As a matter of fact, the DNA change that would make a person gay should never grow beyond the low % of error that would naturally occur in nature.  But what we are seeing now in this culture of godless and gay more and more people “coming out” and being openly gay based on the cultural need to be against the norm, or what used to be the norm.  It is now cool and politically correct to be against what the norm was and what this country has spent 250 years defining.  

 I am ashamed of the corporate world for buckling and being afraid of supporting all groups and allowing themselves to be forced into only accepting the gay and godless of this country.  I am ashamed of the people of this county as 70%+ claim to be of Christian belief but yet agree to the change (with their lack of action) to have our country converted to the home of the gay and godless!

 The Anti-virus company might be one of the market leaders in what they do, but at the same time they are of so little moral value and strength they refuse to give to all equally.

 Shame on you Anti-virus Company and all who just sit there!

 

And for the record, I support the BSA and its National Chapter and values!

Now here is a good use of google maps.  I just wish I had found this when there was time to still see the lights.  Maybe next year if we are still here.

Christmas is here! The kids spent one tenth the time to rip into the packages as it took to wrap them. But I guess that is the fun part for a kid really. I recall the days of seeing how fast I could rip it open. Then there was the year I tried to open each package in such a way the paper would not rip. It was fun watching the kids this year. They got some nice things and will be spending their gift cards soon I am sure. For all of you we wish you a

MERRY CHRISTMAS
