And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

God Hates You and Me

This is one of those posts I hate to write about, because I hate to give publicity to those who enjoy hating others, but when it involves the man upstairs, it becomes my issue, when it involves the man I love, it becomes my issue, when it involves our family, our military, and so forth - IT BECOMES EVERYONE'S ISSUE.  I believe in God whole-heartedly, and truly believe that he is not as hateful as these people portray him to be.

The Westboro Baptist Church uploaded a video on Tuesday that is beyond anything I've ever seen. Not only did they feel the need to imitate the NOH8 campaign started by Adam Bouska to create their own version, they felt they needed to promote hate on every level. 

It is so disturbing to me that the children in this photo are being taught to hate from birth and to believe that God hates the majority of people.  These idiots picket the funerals of our military soldiers, celebrities, and abuse victims who have died, all in the name of God.  They spew hatred in every ounce of their sermons, and the messages they deliver affect people's lives.  I blogged about one of Fred Phelp's children in February on the abuse he had endured while living with with his father and his other siblings, it is really upsetting.

Why do I post this video? To remind us that we have crazy people out there, and that it starts with people like this.


I am truly thankful to the Lord for my parents and Ryan's parents who raised us in Christian households who showed us what love was all about; And while they dealt with problems and personal issues that arise in every family.  They had God in their hearts and it was their faith that kept them going.  I'm Gay... and I Love God.
