Homosexual Liberal Atheists ~ What's UP with that?

I have to admit, I had never seen it. DH was watching it on the "Movie Classics" channel a week or two ago and I saw part of it. Never was a big Brando fan.

Maybe if you were a God Loving Christian instead of a God fearing Christian you would love your neighbor as you love thyself as Jesus commanded.

And when you get to Heaven if the Lord decides to bestow that on to you, will you still be heterosexual? Will you still be Conservative? Will I still be Liberal? Will you Love me?

Wow.

I loved the God Loving Christian party! Great post.

Same coin different side is the Bible verse that says for us to seek our "your own salvation with fear and trembling". I think moreso to be seriously intense about the subject. I am also of the understanding from the reading that to base faith on the Bible and then be gay is an oxymoron.

Now back on topic. Rants and Raves are just that. I don't think you are confined to a preconceived category to rant or rave. It invites raw emotion, post away. You know what they say? If you don't think you will like what you read, DON'T READ IT.

Im a straight liberal atheist. I did however have a very long relationship with a woman in my teenage years. we even lived together for almost a year. She is a wonderful person and someone whom with I learned alot about life from. Never regret it for a moment. As far as that cartoon goes in the first post. looks like fun, maybe if I wasn't such a fatty I could get into that position. Hmmmmm, think I have just now changed my main goal to be in that position instead of getting healthy. Thanks, you really straightened me out -no pun intended. puh-lease what an idiot this first poster is.

I'm just curious why we have to change the subject? This post was made in LBT rants and raves and clearly says off topic debate area. Why can't we start another thread about movie quotes in another area. That way people who want to debate this topic can as long as they follow the rules. And if people are offended by the topic they can just not come in here. I will probably get burned at the stake for saying that but I think this topic was posted in the appropriate place. Speaking of things I am pondering? Is the person that posted the original topic in this thread cowardly? Maybe they posted and I didn't read that and if so I apologize. man enough to say it, be man enough to own it.

I think the thread starter wanted to see the Liberals, atheists and Gays losing their cool and flaming him so that he could feel superior to them (us).

He was wrong. The majority of Liberals, atheists and Gays, and of Conservative, Christians, Jews, Catholics, Muslims, straights and Bisexuals at LBT are too level headed to fall for a ploy like that IMNSHO.

He wanted us to flame, but he gave us a chance to shine.

Sorry, you ever get revved up about something and think of something else you wanted to say but didn't???

anyways, why does it seem like the athiest posts I read talk more about "to each their own" and the only intolerance ie: hatred I seem to read is from "religious" people. Is that what they teach you in church? Again, if I have mis-read something or missed anything as I do not claim to have read EVERY single message on this board I do apologize. Keep in mind that I said "it seems like".

the fact that someone tried to take a shot at the expense of others and the board was turned around and made light of was our own way of ranting and raving.

To each their own, right?

I think some people just plain become uncomfortable when being faced with their own behaviors. Even if someone else writes something that they typically say, they will jump in and make the moment easier by changing the subject.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
