Top 10 Reasons

....gay people should not get married.  This is a lazy repost but I thought it might be good to touch on the subject.

01) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

02) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

03) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

04) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn’t changed at all like many of the principles on which this great country was founded; women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

05) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of marriages like Britney Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

06) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children.

07) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

08) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one religion in America.

09) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.

Y U NO LEAVE COMMENT?

This blog is still a young blog.  June 20th. of 2011 was the first post and after Sept. I almost quit writing at all.  Aiming to forget this blog came the new year. Not quite a resolution but on more of a suggestion that I keep writing, I have been posting new topics and have kept the blog current for about 2 months now.  I have seen a dramatic increase in traffic from before with a lot of traffic occurring most recently.  Total views of this site are not anything to brag about but it has raised the questions; Does my writing reach anyone?  Do people read and care?

I have just relabeled the blog posts into a more concise listing and have come to realize that this blog may lack focus.  My aim is to have a mix of topics and still focus on 3 main issues encompassing Atheism (religion), politics, and entertainment.  After the relabeling I have noticed that many posts are under the philosophy label and this is somewhat of a catch all of coherent ideas and some inane ramblings.  Politics and entertainment both have a high content total and to keep it balanced, I will write more on Atheism; what is it, what it means, and to show its not devil worship.

This posts goal is to generate some level of feedback.  Since I am new to blogging I have no idea on what it takes to get followers or even comments out of people.  As of now not a single person has commented which isn't actually disheartening but it is somewhat like being in the dark.  I have tried to post decent content and make the page look half-well designed.  I have also begun to include more photos and embed more videos for a more entertaining site.

I have searched blog spot posts randomly by using the 'next blog' widget while logged in and many blogs seem very uninteresting.  Sometimes the page that it lands on may have only a tertiary relevance to the blog itself and this single sample is judged for better or for worse.  I can see how some of my older posts are less attractive then my current content.  So then how do I get a person to stick around a little longer?  I can see how a great many people may be put off by the Atheist topics but I try to include enough variety to hook a greater audience.  Is it working?

Tell me what YOU want to see or read about. How do YOU want this blog to look?  Tell me am I relevant to YOU?

This image was take by me in Spokane, WA on July 19, 2011 4:18 am.  It is of the Upriver Dam.  This dams purpose is to provide water for a large portion of the city of Spokane. Down river, perhaps 750 ft or so, is the second portion of the facility shown here:

 The electricity generated from the turbines is used to power the water pumps from the regional aquifer.  A Google search will clearly show the 2 damns and how they are arranged.  This third image shows the main spillway section in brighter conditions:

The last two images were also taken by me at approximately 6am.  The images are free to use but please credit my blog if you use the them.

Title of the post is the topic. Beware this website has nudity.  I would not want you walking into a place or website and having your sensibilities damaged.

This picture above is a sample on http://graysprovocation.com/ and I first became aware of this site when I found one of his videos here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKfl94x3ptg Titled "Ode to 2011".  The content on the official site is slightly different and I recommend going there instead of youtube. The way I found this was, I was browsing through a genre of music called dubstep.  Dubstep is a take on electronica music which features a driving heavy bass beat with the possibility of "glitch" included.  Here is an example of another dubstep song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7-XLL3nbYU . The first video is a remix of Massive Attack's Paradise Circus by Zeds Dead.

I rather enjoy the music alone but I find the video to be extremely attractive and I believe it falls under "art" and not pornography. That being said it is a super sexy video which the author seems to label as a short compilation.  The cinematography seems to capture the feeling of the music, at least for me, and the bass effects.  Not really having a story line does not detract anything for it has more than latent sexuality about it, that it should fire off enough endorphins to keep you interested.

It appears this artist works along the west coast featuring models from Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles. On his site are a mixture of tasteful stills and videos. A preview of a new video appears that may have a little more of a violent edge mixed with sexuality titled Gun Metal Grey and only gives a hint at the music which appears to be of another dubstep song. I feel this is an artist who could use a little attention and I give him the "Sine Deo" endorsement.  He does sell some videos at a nominal price and I'm sure that helps to keep bringing these sexy models to the "stage", if you will.

Provacative - Stunning

Travels through the internet often turn up fun things. LIKE THIS: probably not work safe http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/2001497/Naked-women-on-Paris-Metro-Photos-start-row.html

"""Naked women on Paris Metro: Photos of naked women in provocative positions on the Paris Metro, featured in a new book, have sparked an investigation by rail authorities in France.""""

This nudity is fairly tasteful and our culture should probably appreciate this instead of Modern Warfare 5......doncha think? but about the pictures and the story behind it, very interesting.  Do I really need to say much else?
