Woah...wait when did that happen?
Current mood:content
Yup myspace has spoken I am 29, oh lordy lord. But as my mom said to me as she was wishing me a happy birthday, I'm not really born yet 'your head isn't even showing'.
Thanks to everyone for all the wonderful wishes!

Worth Standing Up & Speaking Out
Anyone who knows me is, I am sure quite aware that I don't watch the news and am not much about current events. Recently I have been reading the paper a bit...it helps that it is free here on campus where I work, and having my interest peaked about several news stories I have been checking on the web as well.
One that I have been following is the Huntington, Utah mine collapse. While reading over several stories I came a cross a religious group in Kansas that has some very strong and HATEFUL feelings about this event. I am baffled by this group and even more so by the actions they are choosing to take. The following is the text taken from a flier available to print on their website:
Westboro Baptist Church (WBC Chronicles - Since 1955)

NEWS RELEASE
Thank God for the Utah Mine Disaster.
WBC to picket the memorial services for the six dead
miners in the central Utah coal mine - assuming they
are dead, after so long a time missing without a word
or a sound; in religious protest and warning; to wit:
God Hates Fags! & Fag-Enablers - Ergo, God hates
Utah and America for surrendering to the fag agenda,
and because of which God is now punishing this evil,
sodomite nation with disaster after disaster,
including 911 I, Iraq, Katrina, West Virginia Mine
Disaster, Virginia Tech Massacre, The Shuttle
Disaster, etc., - and now: The Utah Mine Disaster.
Worse and More is Coming of the Wrath of a Raging Angry God,
Here is WBC's warning to America from God Almighty; to wit:
"Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall befall them; so that they will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us, because our God is not among us? And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods." Deut. 31:17,18.
"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind; it is abomination." Lev. 18:22.
I just wanted to share my fear and unrest about this with you my ether and non-ether friends. That is an amazing amount of hate and it hurts my core. Thanks for letting me stand on my soap box.
