BULLYING

Bullying is a phenomenon that at least fifty percent of the citizens of the United States will experience in their lifetime. I would almost disagree with the above stated fact if I had more resources and real data to verify my feelings. It could be a larger percent.

I am sitting here contemplating what I want to write and how to say it, with my TV on in front of me. The words bully and bullying keep coming to mind. I pause to take in some of the circus I see and it becomes evidently clear. This is a bully show. Rep. Schiff is playing his bully card very well by intimidating every witness that appears as well as each republican that attempts to participate in the procedure. It is absolutely ridiculous.

We need to wake up and face reality. If you are a conservative, republican, Christian or sexually straight person you are, have been or will be a victim of bullying. I recently witnessed a proud lesbian lady proclaim how strong a Christian she is. In my opinion that is not possible. She can make the choice, she is lesbian or Christian, not both. This decision is no more difficult than the decision she made to become lesbian. Make no mistake, God did not make some gay or others lesbian, they made the choice to become part of that lifestyle. God made man in his own image, how much plainer can it be stated? This group has become a bully club.

Chick Fil A, is a fast food restaurant founded in 1946 by a Southern Baptist, Mr. Truett Cathey. The Cathey family continues to run the organization while living a life as devout Christians and are very benevolent to many organizations. Now we find the LGBTQ mob trying to bully them and their business because of the lack of public support for their causes. David Green founder of Hobby Lobby has found himself and his business being singled out by this same mob protesting his Christian beliefs and actions. We cannot allow a small but loud group of immoral, unchristian disruptors and detractors to interfere with these upright businesses.

One of my favorite charities, The Salvation Army, is now being punished by the obnoxious LBGTQ sector because of their Christian base and lack of support for the queer group. All the good the Salvation Army has done means nothing without specific donations and funding for the LGBTQ group. Surely this group of people is not large enough to make these demands and actually expect results. Last time I checked the LGBTQ clan was a minority group, but a loud one. The silent majority needs to become loud against these tactics.

As for me and the LGBTQ crowd, let’s go our own ways. I will never condone or endorse your lifestyle but you have the right to exist. Do not try to force your beliefs on me or my family and keep all your propaganda and actions out of my face. Don’t try to force something on me that I don’t want. I will not force you to believe as I do but I will open my arms and welcome you into the Christian family anytime you so desire. The choice is yours, God didn’t do it to you.

I may not speak eloquently, but I speak what I feel, plain and simple.

Once again I wish to share I am considering an Alaskan trip next September. The trip will include transport by ship, air, bus and rail. A professional tour company has planned all activities and adventures. If you might be interested in going, let me know and I will proceed with planning. We need to know how much interest is out there before we can go much farther. The larger the group the more affordable for each of us. Take this advantage to scratch another item off your bucket list.
