RESPONSE TO DANIEL: NY GOVERNOR’S EXECUTIVE ORDER A MOVE TOWARDS NAZISM
Hello Daniel,
I was deeply saddened by your post and then by your entire blog. As I read the words you placed on this page, the hate in your heart is so apparent that it drips from you lips like a rabid dog frothing and eager to decimate its prey. Now I ask you, how much like Jesus is your blog? Would Jesus in today’s time be writing and denouncing so many people and is this what he would call a Christian way to live?
I won’t even address the vile manner in which you attacked a politician, because I can believe it is within your rights to express your dissatisfaction with the way an elected official is performing their job. I believe your words to be crass and unjustified, but then I found many of the things stated in this post and others to be similarly amplified. I am hoping that you will grant me this opportunity to openly discuss the foundation of your hate and what makes it such a powerful and driving force in your life.
Let us start by dispelling the very first facts you might point to as a driving force and that being the Bible. I am a man of God and hold spirituality firm in my heart just as I imagine you do. I’ve read every word in the Bible and for years thought as you do that the Bible spoke ill of me while denouncing who I am and floundering in my life because I had a problem believing God would create me demented, perverse or just simply wrong. If he created me in his image, and my sexuality is not a choice for me just as it wasn’t for you, then how could I be bad by birth? Years of this thinking kept me away from religion because so many of the faithful, yell and scream from the pulpits and the pews of my evil existence just as you stated in your post. However, I started reading the good book again and this time my mind wasn’t referencing what religious leaders have been using as a bullying tactic to increase their coffers and place larger numbers of butts in their seats. I spoke with noted theologians of many different religions and people who have dedicated their lives to the study of Christianity in hopes that I might garner some decipherable explanation to the words within the pages of a book.
In my search for the real truth about religion I found that most learned people who have truly studied the Bible and its writings have all said that the context of its lessons has been purposely taken out of focus and knowingly done so by the very leaders we look to for guidance and support. When this reality hit me my world changed because it was as if the message was starring me in the face the entire time I questioned it. I always asked in my prayers to God, how could you make me imperfect and yet still be in your image? If being gay was a choice, I would have chosen differently, but yet I never had the ability to choose heterosexuality or homosexuality. I knew of my differences long before I knew what it was that made me different. But as I stammered with my newly found enlightenment, I realized that religion today does not truly represent the church that Jesus Christ wanted us to attend. Please tell me of any time in the life of Jesus Christ where he denied or denounced any person he encountered? When did he allow the ill statements of his followers to be delivered to their subjects? When did Jesus say that homosexuality was wrong and when did he deny the love shared by any two persons?
On my account the living example God sent to show us how we should strive to live our lives did nothing but extend the hand of love to all who would accept it. So with that understanding, why do you believe you are more worthy than Jesus Christ in denouncing homosexuality? If God set you forth on this earth as a profit to teach the world please tell me, otherwise I would find us both men and being children of God and thereby both having the same rights, privileges and capabilities. If you are not the lost profit and we are thereby equal, please tell me how you are anointed with such privilege that you can sit in judgments over me?
If the harshness of your post is out of our systems and we can both agree that Christianity and religion can do without the hypocrisy, then let’s deal with real issues. When did you choose to be straight? At what age were you when you made the active choice to be heterosexual or did you experiment with both boys and girls and then decide after investigating both sides determining that you wanted to be a straight man? If you never made that choice just as all other people that I’ve asked this question too, why would you believe that sexuality is a choice for me and not for you. Don’t you think God would make it the same for everyone? Why would he give me a choice and not give you the same choice? If sexuality is chosen, why would anyone want to be gay? I don’t know anyone who would want to choose to be so different from how everyone else in society tells them to be. I know as I was growing up I didn’t want to be so different from everyone else. Life would have been so much easier had I fit in with everyone else including all of those within my family. I wouldn’t have chosen to be isolated by the ones I loved the most and I would have preferred having friends as I grew up thinking that I was just like everyone else. So if we can understand that sexuality is not the choice that you and Christianity wants everyone to believe that it is, that solidifies that I am made by God in his image and thereby perfect just like you!
If we have dispelled two of the primary beliefs against homosexuality, that brings up to the point, why shouldn’t we have the exact same rights as you? Why should we be unable to share the love in our hearts with the person we fall in love with? Why should our local and Federal governments deny us the rights granted to all people by our founding fathers with our Constitution? If we are truly the same in the eyes of God, why can’t we be the same in the eyes of our Government?
I also need to dispel one thing that you point out numerous times and that is that our government is beholden to God. I hate to dispel this point, but the words of Jesus Christ said that we must follow the laws of the church as well as the laws sanctioned by our government. He also preached for a separation between religion and government.
Daniel, I know you are doing what you believe to be right, but can you truly, deeply and honestly tell me that you are doing exactly what you know Jesus himself would do? If that is your belief then I can respect your stance even when I know in my heart it is wrong. Love is how we need to see everyone else in the world…not hate. I would hope that something I’ve said makes you think or asking questions about what you think you know. My rule of thumb has become, can I see Jesus taking my stance, saying my words, writing my words and teaching what I believe…and I can honestly from the depts. of my heart say unequivocally “Yes” I can. Thank you for reading my words as they refute yours own I bid you a life filled with peace and love as Jesus would have wanted it.
Your humble servant – Todd M. Dobson
NY Governor’s Executive Order a Move Toward Nazism
May 29, 2008 • No Comments
New York’s governor, David A. Paterson, is following the path of pre-Hilter Reich led by the Kaiser. He was notorious for bypassing the processes of a Democratic government. In order to accomplish what he wanted often in opposition of the duly elected legislator, he employed the dictatorial tool of the executive order. It is only dictatorial tool available to the executive provided by a democratic form of government. Hitler was democratically elected. Once elected, Hitler took the common use of the executive order for making public law to its final purpose.
The move toward totalitarianism is already blatantly practiced by gays and their supportive politicians. Gov. Patterson has taken the next step toward a totalitarian state. When people with a moral conscience are no longer permitted to freely criticize the behavioral politics of sexual immorality, their Constitutional rights have been usurped. When moral or religious people are fired for the same reasons, the supposed liberal right to employment becomes non-existent. More importantly, so does their right to assembly in term of economics. When employers are forced to hire those whose behavior offend their religious or moral beliefs, business owner have lost their 1st amendment rights. When ex-gays cannot freely speak at churches, college campuses, or in other public without fascist gays disrupting their meeting to an extent that riot police must be involved, American of opposing views have in-effect lost their free speech rights. That is especially so because typically police do not forceful remove radical and violent gays from the premises of those public forums.
For public officials to abolish the moral bases of social law is to violate the very principle of our Republican form of constitutional government rooted in natural law and religion. Consent of the many does not make constitutional law when it violates the other part of Declaration of Independence that speaks of appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions and ith a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence.
Besides, gay politics claim civil rights to justify their politics. Yet, civil rights law founded on the 14th and 15 amendments are directly linked to the Declaration of Independence. The equality spoken of in the Declaration is part of natural law as given by the Creator, Providence, and Supreme Judge– in other words, God. God did not create homosexuals. It is obvious to both Reason and Revelation that God make male and female for sexual relations, which is the a major reason for marriage. Natural law states that any practice contrary to nature is evil. That what gay politics is all about.
Leading the totalitarian charge is gay organizations like Amnesty International, Gay Straight Alliance Network International, GLAAD, GLSEN, Human Rights Campaign, International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission, Lambda Legal, Marriage Equality, Stonewall Democrats. They are supported mostly by those of the liberal, humanist, and socialist persuasion including organizations like Democratic party, United Nations, Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays, many corporations, American Civil Liberties Union, and the like. Senators Obama and Clinton officially support the gay agenda.
