McCain & Palin
Category: News and Politics

Wow! On Friday I did not expect all this talk about her. I think that the new media has forgotten about the one guy…Obama…I have never hide that fact that I am a Republican who is voting Obama 2008. But I have been thinking these past few days and about my party lines…Palin had a daughter how is 5 months pregnant and she is 17, unmarried…how cares Bristol (is the 17yrs name) is not the one running for office. Then her husband was arrested for drunk driving back in 1986…then there are the rumors of her firing someone for not letting her ex-brother in-law go…and lest not forget that she is green…

But wait…Bristol's choice to keep her child at 17, is her choice. It is not anyone's business what this young lady does with her body…come on you people that are pro-choice it's her body, leave it alone…her husband being arrested 21 yrs ago for drinking was 21 yrs ago, come on. I personally have done thing that I am not happy of but I am not that person anymore and those things have helped me to become the person I am today.  The rumors well are rumors as for right now…maybe these rumors are from an anger bay that last his job and is finding a way for getting back in angry…as for her being GREEN…what about Obama greenness, isn't that what we like about him, that he is not like old Washington, I know that I what I like about him and that is what I like about her.

I don't know much about her but all that I have been reading and listening to I am liking her more and more…she is one that have a vision and a passion for her party and I can wait to see what happens in this race…and as for her being "a heartbeat away for" the president's job if they win…I think I would be ok with that.

So I am looking forward to seeing Palin speak tonight and watching her at the debate on October 3, on CNN…So for who I am voting for…I would like to say I am still 100% for Obama…but I am only 75% leading to him…I need to remember that I am voting for the person at the top of the ticket and I don't care for McCain, at the top on my party and I don't face for (I want to make everyone happy) Biden, the bottom of the democrats ticket…

He’s white, that is why...
Current mood: disappointed
Category: Life

I have never said my name or where I live at for two reasons.

1)      I don't want people trying to find me and get me saved or yell at me.

2)      My wife is a teacher for the school our kids attend.

But I will start with my name Scott Rose, I live in Burlington, NC and my kids are students in the Alamance-Burlington School system…that's in Burlington, NC. I am a white male, my wife white and my boys yes they are white too. Please don't get me wrong I am not saying I hate or dislike people that are not different from me…I hate and dislike all people, the same…black, white, yellow, brown or red, I hate and dislike them all the same.

But my oldest child start school last week and tonight he cried and cried because he did not like school, he even asked to quick school or stay off a few more days. So after he went to bed my wife and I talked about why, cause he is only in the first grade and he LOVED school so much. That is when she informed me that he was the only white boy in his class, WTF…that is like having 14 boys and one white girl, that would not go over well anywhere, what about only one black kid and the rest white…then I thought is why he hates it, it's because no one is like him…I know I would hate that too… I also know he is my son and maybe I am getting carried away, I don't give a fuck that is my baby and it is my job to protect and keep him safe. So this week I am going to the school to talk to someone and if that doesn't work I will talk to someone at the main office. I want my boy to love school and enjoy other people.

So what do you think am I over reacting?

DNC (day two)
Category: News and Politics

Last night DNC was wow! I known it was doing to be with Clinton speaking, she did do a good job BUT what about KUCINICH...his speech was powerful and inspirational like Obama use to be….so to me hands down if I was to rate Kucinich and Clinton, hands down he bitch smacked her and call her his bitch…

hereis a cut and passte of his speech:

It's Election Day 2008. We Democrats are giving America a wake-up call. Wake up, America. In 2001, the oil companies, the war contractors and the neo-con artists seized the economy and have added 4 trillion dollars of unproductive spending to the national debt. We now pay four times more for defense, three times more for gasoline and home heating oil and twice what we paid for health care.

Millions of Americans have lost their jobs, their homes, their health care, their pensions. Trillions of dollars for an unnecessary war paid with borrowed money. Tens of billions of dollars in cash and weapons disappeared into thin air, at the cost of the lives of our troops and innocent Iraqis, while all the president's oilmen are maneuvering to grab Iraq's oil.

Borrowed money to bomb bridges in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. No money to rebuild bridges in America. Money to start a hot war with Iran. Now we have another cold war with Russia, while the American economy has become a game of Russian roulette.

If there was an Olympics for misleading, mismanaging and misappropriating, this administration would take the gold. World records for violations of national and international laws. They want another four-year term to continue to alienate our allies, spend our children's inheritance and hollow out our economy.

We can't afford another Republican administration. Wake up, America. The insurance companies took over health care. Wake up, America. The pharmaceutical companies took over drug pricing.

Wake up, America. The speculators took over Wall Street. Wake up, America. They want to take your Social Security. Wake up, America. Multinational corporations took over our trade policies, factories are closing, good paying jobs lost.

Wake up, America. We went into Iraq for oil. The oil companies want more. War against Iran will mean $10-a-gallon gasoline. The oil administration wants to drill more, into your wallet. Wake up, America. Weapons contractors want more. An Iran war will cost 5 to 10 trillion dollars.

This administration can tap our phones. They can't tap our creative spirit. They can open our mail. They can't open economic opportunities. They can track our every move. They lost track of the economy while the cost of food, gasoline and electricity skyrockets. They skillfully played our post-9/11 fears and allowed the few to profit at the expense of the many. Every day we get the color orange, while the oil companies, the insurance companies, the speculators, the war contractors get the color green.

Wake up, America. This is not a call for you to take a new direction from right to left. This is call for you to go from down to up. Up with the rights of workers. Up with wages. Up with fair trade. Up with creating millions of good paying jobs, rebuilding our bridges, ports and water systems. Up with creating millions of sustainable energy jobs to lower the cost of energy, lower carbon emissions and protect the environment.

Up with health care for all. Up with education for all. Up with home ownership. Up with guaranteed retirement benefits. Up with peace. Up with prosperity. Up with the Democratic Party. Up with Obama-Biden.

Wake up, America. Wake up, America. Wake up, America.

now in my 30’s (a rant I might had been high)
Category: Religion and Philosophy

U know when ur high things are a little bit more open to you! Or is it just because ur high?

Well, I am high today and my head is heavy and is leading to the right…but I can see things a little bit so I thought I would blog so here I go….

I stilled don't know what line to walk…I have spent many year walking one line or another...in my teens I spent time walk the line of experimenting sexually and watch all kind of porn…my 20"s I sent walking the line if Christianity, seeking forgiveness for the teen years…now in my thirty's I am walking the line of love trying to seek forgiveness for my teens and 20's…

Why am I trying to find forgiveness in my 30's if I spent 12 yrs or so in the church…because when I was in the church I was living a lie, like most good Christian do…I was stilled caught up in the sins of my teen years, mostly porn, masturbation and exploring my sexuality…that I keep in hidden in my 20's till it all came exploring in my face two, after my wife found out about my addiction of my youth…but I also did a lot of good things I spent time as a pastor, living a godly life, teaching other to love God…but I also yelled hateful things, told lies, stolid and on and on…(now my head is leaning down)Now I am seeking forgiveness in my 30's about lying about the free gift of love from God and fight against my addiction because of love….now that I have been bible free (well I should say church) my fight is stronger, my marriage is stronger and my love for others (all other) is stronger…but why it should had been that why when I was in the church, right…right, it should had but I spent so much time teaching against sin that I hate all things that where against God…Now I am loving all and excepting them as they are no matter when they are or who they are or what they do…I love them that is my only goal is to love all the same and to love all life…when I meditation seek and listen I find peace that I  did not know or feel before…is if the peace of God I feel or the peace of knowing that we are all one in the world…I don't know but I tell u that I don't pray or seek God in my time of meditation…I seek the still small voice within and listen and walk in love of all that live and moves…I now will say that I don't believe in the God of the bible as I once did…nor do I believe in Jesus as I once did, it's all changed (as u all that have been reading my blogs on Myspace) for me these past churchless years…and no I was not hurt by a church as I was a pastor or just a person that sat in a pew…I am different as it god, say it me, or even say it is Satan…for me I have learned to embrace it and I say is LOVE…

Well tell me what you think and I let you know how I feel…love all

So what is this blog about well I say it is about me taking a hell of a long time finding peace and love...so to you that are out there trying to find out where u fit into just wait u will find out some day and u will hurt a love of people, do a lot of things wrong, you will only find forgiveness is when you find peace and truth that is within...

gauging my ears and body modification
Current mood: pirate
Category: Life

OMG…it hurts. Today I am stretching (gauging) my ears from 00 to ½ inch. It hurts like a motherfer…I just cannot explain the pain. I know I am stupid and that is why I did it, but it will be worth it (I hope). It hurt so much that I could only do one of my ears right now without crying like a baby. So I am slowly stretching the other only using black tape, I will be adding three layers every 24 hours will it is at the ½ inch I want…I will be posting picture on here of my new size and my new body modification too…oh yeah I am going to be getting a few (three or five) Dermal piercings this weekend on my left wrist. Again I am stupid, you might be thinking, but I have been thinking about it for some time now. I guess I do enjoy the pain of it all or I wouldn't be doing it, right?

So let me know what you all think about gauged ears, tattoos and other body modifications? Are they for you or not? Do you have any? What are they?

Same-sex parenting (30 Days)
Category: Religion and Philosophy

I love the TV show 30 Days on FX channel Tuesday nights at 10pm. The show is about someone living 30 Day in someone shoes with a different view form their own. Last night it was about same-sex parenting…this woman from a conservative Christian background and she moved into a home with two men and their four adopted boys. From their first family dinner this woman talking down on same-sex adoption, because God is against that so she is.

I can see where this woman is coming from that a family should have two loving parents a dad and mom. The two men asked her…should these kids age out of the system with no parents or being moving from one place to another to another…with not knowing love or knowing a home.  She kept saying that having a same-sex parenting is open these kids as seeing that being gay is right and is putting unneeded stress on the child. This lady said this it is upsetting that "An army of people out there fighting against what I am fighting for" it is a hard thing to know, that others believe different from you. But that is a part of life. By the end of the 30 Days she learned to respect them but still not agreeing with same-sex adoption. The reason she is against it is from a moral view.

I am not trying to attack her or other people like her. But I can't see how people can feel this way. There are so many kids out there need the love of a family. Yes if the ideal family should be mom and dad, but why in the hell can't it be same-sex parents? Is it because of their morals?  I know many people that are gay and all not one of them came from a same-sex home…So to think that if a child is from a same-sex home will more likely be gay over straight…is very close-minded. So what is your stand on this subject?

Six pack, box of condoms, 2 blue pills and a tan line…
Category: Religion and Philosophy

Do you remember when you were a kid and Scooby Doo or the Smurfs would bring you joy that last till the next Saturday morning? Truthfully I can't, but I can see it in my boys. Now in my 30's is takes a little more than Saturday morning cartoons for me to find enjoyment.

I look it at this man that comes in to my work just about every day. This man is married I know this from the ring she sports on his ring finger of his left hand. This when he comes to buy his six pack he never smiles, talks or even looks at you, he's an asshole (that need his ass kicked). But Saturday nights is different, him come in with a smile and his is every talkative, he still buys his six pack of beer; but he adds a box of condoms and the little blue pills (sex pills). But that not the only differences the woman is a different woman each Saturday and his ring finger is not sport a ring but a tan line…This man love his woman, beer, condom and his sex…but not his wife?  

Where am I going with this? I don't know for sure. Even knowing I would not put myself under any religious faith, I don't see how people could just have casual sex…but sex should be with two loving people. I am not say just in a marriage relationship but a committed relationship. I have only had sex with one person so I guess that is the reason I do not know how or why people just can have casual sex with no strings attached. But sex for me is a deep and meaningful expression of committed and love, so why shear that with a random person. I also see that sex as becoming one with that person, so how can a person's become one with so many? And is it like that person is also become one with the other people you had sex with?

Ponder God’s Plan (repost of a reply)
Category: Religion and Philosophy

"God's plan" is the way that Christians traditionally explain things like amputations, cancer, hurricanes and car accidents. For example, if a Christian dies a painful and tragic death because of cancer, she dies as part of God's plan. Her death has a purpose. God called her home for a reason. Even if something bad happens to a Christian, it is actually good because it is part of God's plan.

You can see how pervasive "God's plan" is by looking in Christian inspirational literature. For example, if we look in the book A Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren, we find this remarkable paragraph in Chapter 2:

Because God made you for a reason, he also decided when you would be born and how long you would live. He planned the days of your life in advance, choosing the exact time of your birth and death. The Bible says, "You saw me before I was born and scheduled each day of my life before I began to breathe. Every day was recorded in your book!" [Psalm 139:16]
There is also this:
Regardless of the circumstances of your birth or who your parents are, God had a plan in creating you.
Under this view of the universe, God plans everything.
Take a moment and think about what Rick Warren said. Rick said, "He planned the days of your life in advance, choosing the exact time of your birth and death." Let's examine one simple implication of this statement. What this means is that God has pre-planned every abortion that has taken place on our planet.

If the concept of "God's plan" is true, you can first of all see that God wants us to be aborting children. Every single abortion is planned by God, so God must be doing it for a reason. Second, you can see that both the mother who requests the abortion and the doctor who performs it are blameless. Since it is God who planned the abortion of the child (God chose the "exact time" of the death, according to Rick Warren), the mother and doctor are simply puppets who are fulfilling God's plan, are they not? What about all the Christians who are fighting against abortion? If abortion is part of God's plan, why are they fighting it? God is the all-powerful ruler of the universe, and his plan is for more than a million children a year to die in the United States through abortion. If God's plan is true, then each one of those abortions was meticulously planned by God.

If God does not intend for us to perform abortions, is Rick Warren then wrong that God has a plan? If God has a plan, is he not the direct cause of every abortion? Simply think it through, and you will begin to see the problems in Rick's proposition.

Think about Adolph Hitler. He was evil incarnate, and Hitler is well known for the atrocious things he did. What I would like you to do right now is to consider this statement: "Hitler is part of God's Plan." Think about what Rick said:

He planned the days of your life in advance, choosing the exact time of your birth and death. The Bible says, "You saw me before I was born and scheduled each day of my life before I began to breathe. Every day was recorded in your book!" [Psalm 139:16]
Rick also says:
God never does anything accidentally, and he never makes mistakes. He has a reason for everything he creates. Every plant and every animal was planned by God, and every person was designed with a purpose in mind.
If God has a divine plan for each of us, then he had a divine plan for Hitler too. It is when you stop to think about it deeply that the contradictions hit you.
Now let's imagine that you say a prayer in this sort of universe. What difference does it make? God has his plan, and that plan is running down its track like a freight train. If God has a plan, then everyone who died in the Holocaust died for a reason. They had to die, and each death had meaning. Therefore, Holocaust victims could pray all day, and they would still die. The idea of a "plan" makes the idea of a "prayer-answering relationship with God" a contradiction, doesn't it? Yet Christians seem to attach themselves to both ideas, despite the irresolvable problem the two ideas create.

Think about what God's plan means for you personally. If the plan happens to say that you will get hit by a bus tomorrow, or that terrorists will blow you up, or that you will be shot in the head four times, then that's what will happen. It would be the same with any disease. If you contract cancer this afternoon and die three months later, that is God's plan for you. Praying to cure the cancer is a waste. God plans for you to die, so you will die. He has pre-programmed the exact time of your death. There is nothing you can do to change the plan -- no amount of prayer will help -- because your death will have meaning and your death will cause side-effects that are also part of the plan.

Who will you marry? You actually have no choice in the matter. God has pre-planned your wedding in minute detail. Rick Warren says, "God knew that those two individuals [your parents] possessed exactly the right genetic makeup to create the custom 'you' that he had in mind. They had the DNA God wanted to make you." Therefore, your spouse was pre-chosen by God for you so that you would create the children who are a part of his plan. You also have no choice in the number of children you will have -- God has pre-planned their births.

In addition, this sort of universe means that Hitler is blameless. Hitler was not "evil," because Hitler had no free will at all. Hitler was simply an actor forced to play his role in God's plan. God planned for millions of people to die in the Holocaust -- he planned their deaths in exact detail according to Rick Warren. Hitler had to kill those people. Hitler was God's puppet in making that those millions of deaths happen right on schedule.

In the same way then, every murderer is blameless. Since God has planned each of our deaths in exact detail, murderers are actually essential to God's plan. Why do we punish them? We should be rewarding them for doing their God-planned duty. What if you get raped tomorrow and get pregnant? God did that because he planned the exact time of that child's birth and death. God actually pre-planned your rape, and the rapist was God's puppet. Rather than hating the rapist, we should celebrate God's plan.

Do you believe that murderers and rapists should be rewarded? Do you believe that Hitler was sent by God to kill millions of people in the Holocaust? Do you believe that God is the direct cause of every abortion on this planet? Do you believe that you have no choice in your spouse or the number of children you have? Probably not. But that is what you are saying when you state that Hitler or cancer or anything else is part of "God's plan."

If you think about it as an intelligent person, you will realize that the statement "It is part of God's plan" is one of those meaningless palliatives. When you sit down and think it through using your common sense, the statement makes no sense. That lack of sense shows us how imaginary God is.

Can a gay person be a Christian?

In the Greek, Hebrew and the original text...there is not word for homosexuality...the word that is used is for pedophile, someone that is into sex with children which is unnatural, as you read your bible and where you see the word homosexual add pedophile in its place…

Why flock to the Lakeland revival (is God that small)
Category: Religion and Philosophy

Revivals, miracles, signs and wonders...why are the masses flocking to Lakeland Florida? I have been watching the live feed, reading about it and doing research about this move of god. I have always respected Todd Bentley from the first time I meet him. I meet Todd in Canada at that the Toronto revival back in 2002, I know that he has a heart for all god children (all); this passion of this man is pure. But again why are they flocking to this revival? These people have been come from all over the world; it's like what happen in Toronto, Canada and the Brownsville, Florida revivals that starting in the 1990's. Can't God touch them at home and in their churches? I believe that it is wrong to be seeking miracles, signs and wonders…I think that Gods people are to seek God and not him hand. But then again it is my view, maybe God can't move or touch people at home or their churches and that is what this revival like many, the masses flocking to these revivals. To me it is sad to think that their God is that small that he can  only touch them at these revivals...
