This is new...and SICK!

Recently I did business with MetLife.

As with many large businesses, I had to send them a W-9 and to fill out a vendor questionnaire. The questionnaire contained typical questions like: "Type of commodity/Services the vendor is providing. "Whether MetLife employee/ Ex MetLife employee, etc."

Then at the bottom, the questionnaire says "Whether Minority Owned / Women Owned / Disabled Veterans / LGB-LGBT Owned." Yes, LGB, LGBT, which I'm pretty sure is referring to LESBIAN, GAY, BI, TRANSEXUAL"

I've always been annoyed about having special rights going to the Minority and Women Owned businesses, but from my understanding, these are "disadvantaged businesses" that need extra assistance.

I have a couple of questions I really need answered:

1. I have never heard of any government law(s) federal state making this any criteria for doing business (unlike the minority thing). Does anyone know if there is any laws on the books, or is this something MetLife is doing on their own? If so, I intend to boycott them forever more (although I'll take their money for this or any other sales)

2. It's no secret that the gay community is much more economically prosperous than the average American, so what is the reasoning for giving special advantages to LGBT?

3. When I mentioned we were a small business, we got a response asking to show proof of this. How does one prove themselves to be Gay or Bi?

4. Would one have to physically participate in sexual acts of members of the same sex qualify for these special rights, or would staring at a dude in spandex for ten seconds be enough for their terms?

All I know, is that many times I've been in a rest stop along the highway, I've found writing on the walls that says "be here at 12:30 am at such and such date for (sick sexual act). When I was younger, I thought it was just some pervert joking around. Now I'm pretty sure those bathroom proposals are indeed sincere. It just amazes me these bathroom writers should get any special treatment.

Your thoughts?

GREECE WILL BRING FORTH THE BEAST OF REVELATIONS

Christians are getting excited t the current situation in Greece.
It is the precursor to the EU becoming the famous Beast in Revelations
with 7 heads and 10 horns and 10 crowns on top of the horns.

when the EU was established in Rome in 1957 with 7 countries
the Christians waited until they increased to 10 so prophecy can be fulfilled.
typically the prophecy failed, just in the same way as the failed second coming , and the number of states in the EU increased to 28.

but Christians knew the prophecy will eventually be fulfilled, just as the second coming will eventually happen.

the current situation in Greece could be IT!!
This is the precursor they have been waiting for.

Greece will begin the unravelling and the EU will fall apart.
The present 28 countries will revert to just 10.
Thus becoming the infamous 10 horns with 10 crowns.

Go Greece!!!!! vote NO!!!! OXI!!

When God creates tornadoes to kills innocent children He is merely taking back what He gave and has every right to take. It is no violation of justice and hence not a sin.

Quote# 101975

[The Planned Parenthood Tumblr blog made a post for LGBTQ Pride Month in June, affirming their support for that community.]

Planned Parenthood is an American corporation in business to make money. They understand that they must keep abortion legal to stay in business. That is why they are pandering to the LGBTQ community. They need an alliance with this community to allow them to continue killing little unborn boys and girls. As all things related to abortion, this logic is utterly twisted and self defeating for the LGBTQ community. This community relies on the heterosexual community to make more LGBTQ people. If they partner with Planned Parenthood, heterosexual offspring will continue to be slaughtered at a rate of over 1,000,000 children per year in the US alone, over 43,000,000 worldwide. Planned Parenthood's marketing strategy and coalition building skills are almost as good as their industrialized killing machine.

The idea that a man is a pedophile if he sleeps with a 13 yo girl is based on the notion that he is is sleeping with "underage" girls because that's what the bad laws say.

The thing is - These laws are utterly insane.
Imagine if the age of consent was 30. Would you think a sex with a 29 year-old woman being banned would be crazy?

What if the age of consent was 80? Would you agree that having sex with a 79 year-old woman because she is too young being a crime is crazy?

Well, guess what - that's how a sane man feels in a modern Western world. If you thought that the ideas with 30 or 80 were crazy that's how we feel when we read your batshit ideas.

The idea of "pedophilia" over the age of 12 is the idea of completely insane people and insane laws that are implemented and upheld. It has nothing to do with actual physical and biological reality. It's based on a fundamentally flawed idea on sex being a traumatic, dangerous act and is puritan nonsense liberals are defending staunchly and thus proving the point many realize about them, which is that they're not progressive or actually liberal but small minded followers of what's most popular.

What must, of course, be noted is that liberals want to apply these insane laws only to whites. A liberal would have no problem with a black, Muslim or any other member of some of their sacred groups having sex with their 2 month old baby if they want it. That would be a no problem at all for a liberal. But this is because a liberal sees statutory rape, or any rape, as white men doing anything to get a woman. To a liberal brutally and forcefully fucking a white woman by a member of a sacred group isn't a crime but a white man asking a woman for coffee is a severe crime. When it comes to white women and the "rapes" liberals claim they might commit, statutory or otherwise, that's another story for another post.

Just had a scarey thought: Since Star Wars was taken over by Disney, are we going to see the three new sequels have some sort of gay or possibly gay characters in them? That would ruin Star Wars forever.

You still won't admit that the vast majority of inventions have been American? Look, you have free will to deny basic facts, but your denial is astounding....

If you were genuinely interested in logic, then you'd spend some time reading or translating the Bible, the most logical book of all. But I suspect you're more interested in trying to reject the Bible than giving it equal time in your activities. Am I right?

"I will send you what you need to know... but you - stay out of the news."

It seems that all these terrorist cells are entering countries as refugees.

"Not all but many, enough to make the difference when Islam is declared the world religion."

How can that happen? People see how horrible it is.

"The government will force the issue. Your faith in Me will have to be denied in writing, in order to keep 'world peace.'"

But even factions of Islam kill each other.

"That, too, will come to an artificial end during this time of scripted and contrived peace. This will be touted as the solution to all men's ills: a religion that does not offend Islam. All will sign this document or be beheaded. It's just that simple.

"There will be a coup in your government. Suddenly Islamic candidates will rise to power just as your president did, by stealth and intrigue, coming from nowhere and preaching a platform of world peace. Prosperity and progressiveness will be touted as the banner of the day, even as it was in Hitler's day - and those who wish to be fashionable and accepted will easily fall into line, for their glory is their shame."

But Islam does not allow for homosexuality?

"It will. This new brand of Islam will; the Mahdi will be a homosexual."

No! That can't possibly be! But of course, it if were Obama, that would be the perfect candidate.

I had an experience with the Lord where He took me to a Mosque in the middle east, there were cobras coming out from behind the central worship area and when He took me back there I saw a throne covered with an awning at the end of a very, very long narrow room where men were seated on the floor cross legged, talking to one another. At the left hand of the throne, seated on the floor was Osama Bin Laden. They were all waiting for the Mahdi. Along with that I saw who I would one day recognize as Obama, at the Capitol rotunda appearing at a gala in his honor, and being introduced as our Savior. "Our savior is here!" And then he introduced Obama.

Its evident to me, for unbelievers it will not be evident, don't you think Satan watches out for his flock? He wants the unbeliever to be as comfortable as possible, negating any need to seek God. There's nobody there, there's nobody there... says the ostrich with his head in the sand.

If as a politician you can speak to the truth publicly then do so with ability. Trump & Farage have it. Trump & Farage can handle every dirty fake newsdog going. Trump is highly articulate and highly intelligent on so many subjects the likes of which Merkel and May could never last a minute under free-for-all-questioning. Farage also is as articulate as Trump - no wonder the UK elite hate him. In the UK our Labour & Tory politicians are a first world embarrassment for their controlled and contrived utterances in public.

Go Brexit and Go Trump - the European pro-EU politicals have made some very grave mistakes in not keeping up with the information age the times and the people and what has gone on in America.

Keep up the 'correction' that has been a long time coming Donald.

(later comment from him)
The British people already have clocked and gotten the Trump message - the shame and disgracefulness of it all is that the politicians and the media (all of them to use an Americanism are all caught way behind the curve) in the Uk are still mentally disturbed, spitting bile and still squaking around over a year after Brexit. Wake up you stoopid UK politicians you lost - Brexit won - now get with the people or you will find yourselves locked up.

[Borat : Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan]

I'm an airy fairy new age psychic Christian from Washington, DC married to a Jewish man from the Northeast. However, I do have Christian relatives from the midwest and South. My point is that it's alright for a black to make a joke about a white, but not vice versa. It's alright for a Jews to parody Christians, but not the reverse.

This movie was very selective in picking people from the South to show as ignorant and socially/politically incorrect. Why didn't he pick any NY or CA people to portray this way? We know there's an abudance of idiots in every region. This movie was narrow-minded, and manipulative in its depiction of Americans and Southerners, and relied heavily on disgusting hairy body parts for its humor. Frankly, I was bored and grossed out by the film.

It was also an obvious political statement by a liberal foreigner as we approach the elections. And guess what...I'm not a Republican. But I'm still offended when foreigners constantly malign Americans, yet there are still 20m+ immigrants flooding into our country.

Can we say "double standard" on all counts? I wish I could get a refund back from this movie.

Whatever they feel for each other, it certainly isn't love. Perverted lust is more like it. That's why almost zero percent of gays and lesbians stay together more than a few months -- a year or two at most. They are unhappy and looking for something they won't ever find outside of repenting and turning away from their homosexuality. I will never understand how any man or woman could go against their natural feelings for the opposite sex (because everybody was made heterosexual and designed to be attracted to the opposite sex) and be with someone of the same sex, unless it is just pure rebellion and perversion. And that's why we don't need these people in positions of power or influence any more than we need murderers, rapists, theives, and drug addicts in power. Yes, I know everybody struggles with sin, but to embrace sin and call it normal and right is NOT acceptable. No one was born to be gay. For whatever reason -- childhood abuse or plain rebelliousness -- these people CHOOSE to live this kind of lifestyle, and they CHOOSE to want to be with the same sex. They need help, not encouragement. Allowing them to be government officials, teachers, or in any other position where they can have influence over others is not right.

Ok, I see what your saying, Not all Jews will be saved, those who reject Jesus will die and go to hell just like gentiles. As far as after the rapture, depending on which way you believe. The Jews who end up recieving the mark of the beast, whether because of the great delusion of 1 Thess. Make more sense?

[I am Pro-Life.
I think abortion should be illegal, unless the mother's life is in danger.]




Life is life. Why kill a baby if the mother's life is in danger? Why not let the mother die and save the baby? Who are we to choose which life should be chosen over another? Why not leave it into God's hands to decide who should live or die. It is disturbing that some people claim to be pro life then put restrictions on life....
