I Hate This Town!!!! God, get me out of here!!!!

Damnit! I live five minutes from Focus On The Family and live in a hot-bed of right wing conservative assholes. “Do as I say, not as I do.” It’s bullshit I tell you. (someone in around the boards mentioned Gary Bauer…um, sad to say my father supported him in his lame ass try for the Republican presidential bid, and they think I am loony for my political beliefs! Just to give you and idea of what I deal with.)

http://www.cwcm.net/bullshit.html

First off, as you will see from the letter to the editor to start, this bitch seems to have this idea that all, or most, women are evil and are the cause of all human problems. I find this sick and disgusting thinking and wish this bitch a slow and painful death.

I don’t get it, let’s blame some non-existant woman for all the evils of the world then a man saves us all. My ass. This is weird because I was thinking how ludicrous the whole idea of Adam and Eve is just earlier today. We humans definately are not cut from the same cloth and my God, to blame one single woman and the woman that follow for the “sins” of the world is outrageous.

Okay, I may be reading more into it than this woman is writing, but fucking A, this bitch needs to go back to 100 years ago where a womans worth was nill. She needs to crawl out of her asshole and realize that women are worthwhile. Yes, some of us do give birth but we also contribute more into society than she suggests in her short snippit. She also needs to realize that abortion practices, medicinal and surgical go back extremelly far in time.

Look, if she is so hell bent on stopping abortions then I wish she would get off her polyester (sp) fat ass and work towards helping women make the choice she feels is right. BUT NO, this bitch has to sit back and blame all societal ills on the fact that a woman feels she has to make a decision. Whether that decision is right or wrong in the “The Eyes of God” is between the woman and God, not her supremist-white-bitch, I-am-a-Christian, therefore-I-am-superior-than-thou, fucked up attitude.

Oh and then on to the next part of the page.

Mr. James Dobson, Mister High and Mighty of the Christian elite, says he “forgives” his precious John Paulk for sliding back into his former status of a gay man.

Okay, this is fucked from my perspective because the FOTF organization makes it VERY clear in our city that gays are horrible beings and there is little forgiveness because they live the lifestyle of a homosexual.

I wouldn’t let this chap my hide except from this small article it proves to me that everything they preach and have out there against the gay lifestyle (whatever you want to call it) screams to me that their stance is more about hating homosexuals rather than loving people for their decisions and whatever is happening behind the scenes.

In turn, this article proves what hipocrites FOTF really is.

I am disgusted with the attitudes in this city. I want to leave this place as it stiffels the human love for life. So many in this city are quick to judge and don’t leave any room for us being human.

If I could afford it, I would move back to Denver which is close enough to my family but far enough from the bullshit that this town essentially represents, intolerance.

I personally find Miss Edna’s “Eve as horny slut” theory to be a particular hoot (he said with a grumble in his voice).

Damn, Tech’ems, you’ve got my sympathy (whether you want it or not). A lot of people like this you just can’t argue with (not like their beliefs are based on much intelligence anyway…), and as such you’ve either got to stay silent or shout yourself hoarse to no avail. And who wants to go tear their vocal chords to shreds over people like these?

Here’s hopin’ you manage to get away ASAP.

>>>>>>"Gentlemen, you know her; she’s out there - looking for her sexual gratification. Don’t give her the power to take out of the hands of God the disposal of human life. "<<<<<

Yeah! You never see us guys out there hunting for sexual gratification! Tramp!

The way I heard it was it was Adam’s fault; he was the one “in charge” and so sinned by eating the fruit.
Once on a tv show, someone from the audience asked PAt Robertson what would’ve happened if Adam hadn’t eaten, but Eve had.
He laughed and said, “well, I guess God would’ve made another woman then.” !

Sounds like some real fun people. A pity the rest of us are not likely to ever be moral enough to emulate them.

I never fail to be amazed at the lengths they’ll go in their attempts to make as many people as possible think only as they do, while consigning the rest of us to hell. Of course, it’s all been done before, and recently. If I remember right, Nazi Germany in the '30s did much the same on a larger scale. Only the philosophy was different.

Me, I’d stick around. Monomaniac-bashing can be fun.

Techie, it could be worse. You could live in Dallas. Or at least you could come and visit :wink:

James Dobson of Focus on the Family- yes, I have heard his segments on my radio station here in SoCal. Interesting how, when in the mainstream, he sounds very reasonable.

Guess I know what to do when I hear it now.

I have stopped trying to explain to close-minded ignorant fucks what their problem is. It is a waste of my time, breath, and everything else.

OK, Eve’s got some ‘splainin’ to do. Why can’t I find her on the TV and in movies? (Yeah, we can find a magazine article or a book from time to time, but I never get to watch her in the movies!) Eve? Have you been two-timing us by appearing exclusively on Colorado Springs television?

No sympathy from me, just empathy. My congressman is Henry Hyde. For years I lived a mile from Wheaton College, Billy Graham’s alma mater.

I feel your pain.

More sympathies from down South, where Jesus rules with an iron fist. Jesus fish are more common than turn signals here. GW stickers dot every bumper. Hundreds of them. I’ve seen exactly ONE Gore sticker (really)!

I think these people are just looking for someone to blame for their pathetic lives. As the wise Geddy Lee once sang :

The stars aren’t aligned
Or the gods are malign.
Blame is better to give than receive.

I guess they don’t want to blame god for the ills of society since they love him so damn much, so they put down homosexuals and women. Sad, little people with tiny, little minds.

Come north, young woman. You’ll be much happier, techchick68.

I escaped the Orange curtain almost ten years ago. Northern California is much easier to live in than SoCal. In the terrible days of living in Dannemeyer’s district I was a hair-on-fire liberal feminist, but now, twenty miles south of San Francisco, I’m practically a moderate.

Way back when I was one of the few democrats in my hometown. Election day was always a hoot. It would take the poll ladies almost a minute to find my republican dad, whereas, finding mom and me in the little book o’democrats took about two seconds.

Save your pennies and move soon. The weather is nicer up here too.

or just come up north and check out Boulder…it the Antisprings.

Or come to California, where we’re all sex-obsessed, godless heathens!

Boulder? Commander, you’re funny! BOULDER? HAHAHAHA!

It’s true, there’s Colorado Springs then there’s Boulder on the other side of the spectrum. How two so different cities can exist in such a short distance is amazing.

Denver or Grand Junction would be fine with me. You can be youself without feeling you are doing wrong.

It’s no wonder I sit on my ass all the time and about the only time I become social is when I head to Denver. The thing with the night life here is it’s either a bunch of snobs or sluts…niether of which I am.

I don’t get into going to a night club where you are judged by how long your dark roots are, how much makeup you have on and how tight your dress is. On the other hand I also refuse to go to the snob clubs and run into the assholes I went to high school with – makes me shudder even thinking about it. I can’t win in this place.

Damn conservative assholes!

Funny, I live NEAR Boulder, and the whole time I found myself thinking how oppressive my town is in exactly the opposite way. For example there is a tree on Open Space land that people would hang paper angels on during the holidays, Boulder County got sued over it and had to go remove all the angels even though they didn’t put them there. While at the same time there is a big ‘ol statue of a pagan god on the Pearl Street Mall that nobody cares about. Go figure? Oh well I like Boulders’ flavor of tyranny better than Colorado Springs. I vote Grand Junction.

Kuwatto- a statue of a pagan god on the mall? It has been WAY TOO LONG since I’ve been back to Boulder! Where is it? I don’t suppose one of the Pearl Street webcams can see it?

I have to agree with the theory that Boulder and Colorado Springs are so apart from each other that they come back around to the same place. Both places have absolutely no tolerance for anybody who thinks different from them, and think they’re the most important place in the world. Stick with Denver, we’re sane and fun.

Can I have an Amen? Preach on Brother neutron.
TC, that letter had to have been written by a woman that has never experienced a singe, let alone multiple, orgasm. I’ve seen what they can do to a woman (well, not really seen, but I’ve heard). If she ever had one, she’d probably start running the streets looking for some of that good, old-time “sexual gratification.”
