Same Sex Marriage
President Obama has come out, perhaps a poor choice of words, he has come out in favor of Gay marriage. So what do I think?
The debate really centers around the M word.

I did a blog on the topic, “Is homosexuality a sin.” I have received a lot of comments and that is a good thing. Today someone posted on my face book page the comments of a homophobic pastor. It is hard to comment on such ignorance.
I read in the paper today something that at first I thought must be a joke. It was not. A developer wants to put up a new apartment building in an area of Vancouver called Gas Town. Gas Town is a mix of drug addicts, Mentally challenged, rich and poor and everything in between.
What is important to you. What do you value? I talked to a couple of people in New York City and they had some interesting things to say about values. A young man by the name of Ricky Thompson goes into schools, on his own time, and speaks to children about getting a good education. He say’s he gets more out of it than the children do.
I am driving my grandson david to school and thinking about what our country needs. Dewey How about a new political platform? A platform that stress honesty, integrity and character. The real crisis in America is not financial it is not oil, it is the breakdown of morality.
The rebuilding of the World Trade Centre inspires me in so many ways.
Stuff happens in life. Sometimes we get knocked down. The question is do we get up again. That is what living is all about.
So the other question is, well there will be riots if the team wins or loses. I think there are enough social rejects in Vancouver to try again. This is the only way some people ever get attention. We do not realize how socially inept a large section of our population is. When you have a Vancouver Justice System (now there is an oxymoron) like the one we put up with it does not deter a lot of socially dysfunctional idiots who live in our land.
So I lost my wallet today and I had an opportunity to be upset. The saying came to mind,”in everything give thanks.”. It does not say give thanks for everything. It says in everything give thanks. So I changed my focus and decided to go with an attitude of gratitude. I did not get my wallet back but I feel pretty good about life. I decided to talk to some of my street buddies. A lot of folks Don’t take [...]
This is true what I am about to tell you. The Government of Canada now gives out free crack pipes along with instructions on how to use . How convenient. This is part of the harm reduction program for addicts. So the idea is if you can’t help them get off drugs at least help them do drugs. Does the word enabling come to mind.
Is there any deeper love than the love of a mother for her children? A lady in Kentucky risked her own life to secure the safety of her two children. In the process she may lose both of her legs. Her son then turned around and saved his mother’s life by running to the neighbours and getting help for his mom. In a lot of ways it was a miracle that they survived. The home was torn apart but the children walked away without a scratch on them.
There is a very popular t.v. series called the ‘Walking Dead.’ It is about a Zombie Apocalypse and the story is about survival in a world where there is a constant threat of death.
In the book I read a lot it says, “The enemy comes to rob, steal and destroy.” In a real sense most of the world as we know it is living in a state of fear. Hatred, bitterness, drugs, divorce, wars and rumours of wars. Planet earth is a battlefield in a world of people that are the real ‘Walking Dead.’

Obama may sing his way into the second term. Jeremy Lin may shoot his way into the White House. Why not he is a Harvard Grad and now that he has star power, watch out. The three reasons why the republicans will not get in. Newt, Mitt and Rick, between the three of them they do not have half the Charisma of Barak Obama.
