"Alabama Pastor Holds 'Whites Only' Conference"

Yeah, that's right. I love what the pastor said when approached about this. Reverend William Collier said that he wasn't a racist, but that "the white race is God's chosen people."

The founder of the church, Mel Lewis, complained that the uproars this year shows a disrespect for religious liberty. ...and yes, the KKK will be attending this year...

Yeah, Jesus was Jewish. If there were a chosen people, wouldn't it be Jews? If we don't want to look at it that way, wouldn't everyone be God's "chosen people"? People amaze me with such idiotic comments and then they hide behind their distorted version of their religion to say they're not a racist and then attempt to turn the tables and say it's the people calling them out that are against free speech/religion/diversity.

According to Collier and the like, the hymn goes something like this:

"Jesus loves the little children,
All the children of the world,
White and white, white and white,
They are precious in his sight..."

Well, I guess if God had a chosen person to showcase stupidity, it's Reverend William Collier.

  1. That's ridiculous. I'm not suprised to hear of the KKK being there. Bunch of racist jerkoffs anyway. I hate racism, I hate people who are racist. People who believe that white is powerful or white is the dominant people need to have their head examined. I hate racism, discrimination. As far as my opinion goes, we're all the same on the inside; we just come in different packages is all. God did it that way to make us all unique in our own ways, to add a little splash of variety on the earth, to add a splash of diversity here. I love it when there are people of other races and nationalities here. It'd be boring if it was all white here.

    I've been in situations where people say bad things, like making a big deal I'm hugging a black person or an Asian person. There are people my dad work with that are of other ethnicities. One time, a friend of my dad's, who happens to be black, was at her store at this local flea market. So me, my sis and dad went out there to see her and we started hugging her because we knew her for so long and this white guy was giving us dirty looks; like he thought we should not be hugging a person darker than us! WTF?

  2. Thanks for your comment. It really amazes me that, in this day and age, there are still people whom judge others not by their character, but by the color of their skin (or in other cases, their gender, sexual orientation, creed, etc.). I'll never understand such a person's thinking. When I talk to and get along with someone, why in the world should it make a difference if that person is white, black, brown, purple, periwinkle, male, female, a bit of both, gay, straight, asexual, Hindu, Christian, Scientologist, etc.? I have a feeling that often times, such people are quite insecure and ignorant. Some of them need to feel like there's a person or group of people beneath them in some manner. I also find that often times they're not the brightest crayons in the box. When we limit our diversity in people/culture, we limit our diversity in knowledge.

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Trump's Lie Tally at the CNN Debate

1) "We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We had never done so well. Every – everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us." 2) "But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess." 3) "The only jobs he created are for illegal immigrants and bounceback jobs; they’re bounced back from the COVID." 4) "Not going to drive them higher. It’s just going to cause countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China – it’s going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things." (tariffs) 5) "He also said he inherited 9 percent inflation." 6) "No, he inherited almost no inflation and it stayed that way for 14 months. And then it blew up under his leadership, because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn’t know what t...
