This is election year in US. The first US presidential
election I began to pay attention was: Gore VS Bush. It was a shameless nude
dance in the face of American; for many weeks they recounted votes, debated,
argued, regretted on their famous and always controversial “electoral and
popular vote system”, while the whole world was amazed to find out that even
America, the ‘democratic messiah of the world’ failed blatantly to elect the
president. So much politics was involved. I hated politics and will always hate
it. Churches, temples, holy people, scriptures all claim that they are put up
there by GOD, for future purposes. Philosophically, if that was the case, there
is no point in arguing, babbling and complaining about why Obama supports gay
marriage now publicly. It must be God’s ultimate purpose, uncovering like a
lotus flower in mud, may something hidden be unhidden and God will be
glorified.
My thing is simple- politics is the dirtiest game ever
existed, and politicians are shameless, valueless, immoral, opportunistic
hyenas. They will sell even their own daughters to be elected for the‘Office’, just
like Obama did today. It is another question if he changed his position because
of something else but he changed his stand due to his daughter’s friends from
same sex parents and his staffs and marines who are supposedly in
‘monogamous’relationship. What a joke!
Same sex marriage was not the central issue this time. It is
not the real debate. Please read ‘between the lines’-it’s the election time. In
America, nowadays, there are more people (votes) supporting gay marriage than
opposing it. It has significantly increased in last four years. This is one of
the many examples of politicians throwing out their dices. Al Qaida document publication,
capture of few terrorist, supposedly increased job rate, decreased oil prices,
improved economy and so on...to name a few, everything is smoothly happening
now. A few more of these things will happen. An average man with some common
sense will know what going on. Most American will take this as an opportunity
to explore; to enjoy forbidden fruit- no complains….human nature is such.
Politics is the worst thing can happen to good people. Everyone will be
corrupted by it.
Most Americans are calling it a landmark while many
Christian hearts are sad today. For many, Obama just has stabbed them in the
back. I think if Jesus already said that he is all the authority, in here,
there and everywhere, there no need to respect any politicians. That if anyone
does, I consider him idolater of new kind. Jesus didn’t respect any tax
collector in the temple, neither he bow down to Ceaser, nor he offered any
apology to Pilate. Bible has been modified, edited, translated numerous times.
All the writers, translators, inspired apostles acted politically, if I may use
that word, in some way, to make the book valid, updated and adjusted, to make
it acceptable and correct in contemporary political, social, economic and
cultural beliefs. Examples—rise of Roman Catholicism, Issue of circumcision,
Baptism, discussion about including and not including certain texts, Revelation
being a prime example, and issues like slavery.
For Jesus, like me, all the politicians, tax collectors,
priests are all hypocrites, opportunistic snakes, doing hanky-panky jobs in
God’s house. For non-Christians- it is not difficult to understand, it is
almost expected from any one in that position to say such things. I mean any
politicians would take a chance on right times. Homosexual are also God- made
people. Marriage is a different issue, however. Laws in different countries in
the world may have different laws about marriage but we all know what marriage
is. Someone who is voluntarily ignorant is the toughest to educate. I have seen
many homosexuals and for many years I struggled to find answers about if
homosexuals are really born “that way”. It will always be a controversial
issue. We need more open time to discuss that in detail.
