It's been a while...

So, I've sent in my audition for MuchMusic VJ Search 2.0 and, although the odds are not in my favour, I'm determined to see my happy face in the top 16.
I've been making videos, updating the Facebook group, and keeping track of comments and messages.
I just want to say thanks to those who are avidly following me, you're all helping this dream come true!

On another note, I've noticed that homosexuals are at an increased risk of harassment from a group of people. And I would like to clear things up.
As the scriptures of the Bible are entirely interpretable, I've been told homosexuality is a SIN.
This is incorrect.
How could something one cannot control be a sin? You think we chose to be this way? Chose to take the abuse on a daily basis? No. It was handed to us; we had no choice in it.
So, for all those who have supposedly found passages that explicitly state it is a sin to have butt sex, check these out.

1 John.

2:9 Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness.

4:7 Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

4:20 If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.

It seems to me, since there are so many interpretations of the Bible, we should actually ask the people who wrote the scriptures, eh?

Blow Up in Your Face.

School is now becoming increasingly more difficult to endure. Sometimes, sitting in class is alright, but then there are times when your mind begins to wander to other places.
You think about what your friends might be doing at that moment, you look longingly out the window at people driving around in a giant hurry. This is when you know you need a day off to collect your thoughts.
I did just this yesterday. It was pretty fantastic: I watched Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix twice. It is by far the best one of the six.
I did a lot of thinking, too.
Then, I went back to school and had a bomb dropped in my lap. Try studying after that!
So needless to say, I could have just stayed at home this morning and slept, but I decided Anthropology was much more important.

Here's hoping it was just a shitty start to an excellent weekend!

Cure for Homosexuality.

I was watching some videos on Youtube about 5 minutes ago, and one of them was a blogger asking people if they would choose (if there was some kind of cure) to become straight.
This led me to thinking: would people actually choose an easier life and abandon themselves?
In all honesty, I wouldn't be able to decide that in less than, say, a month. I'd have to put some serious thought into it. As sexual orientation is not a choice, being given the choice would raise a lot of concerns. Some would not choose to become straight, and obviously homophobes would thrive because someone actually wants to be gay. But can you imagine how hard it would be to live with yourself knowing you chose the easy way instead of the way that makes you happiest?
It would make the decision that much more difficult. People would not only judge you to no end for your eventual choice, but you would have to live with that choice for the rest of your life.
So this leads me to ask: If I actually have any readers as of yet, would you choose to "cure" your sexuality? If you could become straight, would you do it?
There is obviously no wrong answer here, so comment and let me know where you stand.
