Taxis
Posted by Zeng @ 10:22 pmMr Chen, Taxi Driver of comfort SH 8458
Thanks for being so rude to me,
Thanks for your “advice” on what my opinion should be.
Thanks for saying ” I never QUESTION you! ”
you know those words really made my day.
and saving the best for last…
Thanks for that threatening glare towards me, my bro and my girl, as we walked towards the HDB lift and even stay and waited for us as we reached our floor before you slowly left the area.
Your great service has really brighten up the rest of my day.
Of all the taxis i sat in,
even if they have the “available light” on and zoom right past me.
even if they “hum” the car with their great clutch/gear skills.
even if they took the “wrong” way and iI had to pay extra.
even if they had their own opinions about routes to take.
Ive never met a driver quite like you.
Cheers!
Haggard is Cured of his Gay-ness
Posted by Ray @ 8:03 pmPraise be to the Lord!
For those not in the know, the Reverend Ted Haggard is an anti-gay, evangelical christian who was outed by a gay prostitute from whom he’d solicited gay sex and crystal meth. For three years. He resigned his position in utter disgrace, eventually admitting to “sexual immorality”.
Now, after three intense weeks of counseling, the Denver Post is reporting that he is “completely heterosexual”. Counseling? Shouldn’t he have been put to death? Has not the Lord our God said (Leviticus 20:13):
If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.
And again, at Leviticus 18:22:
Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable.
Even the New Testament has something to say (1 Corinthians 6:9-10):
Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
Don’t you understand, Ted? The Bible says you are wicked and detestable (versions other than my NIV say you are an abomination). Come now; if you use the Bible to advance your homophobic agenda, then you must use that selfsame Bible and have your congregation put you to death. It is as the Lord commands.
I have no sympathy for this… thing. His its personal anti-irony generator cancels out all hypocrisy around him it as long as it is does not suit him it. Check out this interview on Youtube, and see if you don’t feel any disgust at this “man of God”.
Here’s a transcript starting at about 8:24, in case the Youtube vid dies:
Ted (to Richard Dawkins): You do understand, that this issue here, of intellectual arrogance, is the reason why people like you have a difficult problem with people of faith. I don’t communicate an air of superiority over the people because I know so much more (ed: at this point, he has is nose in the air and is just exuding superiority).
And if you’ve only read the books I know, and if you only knew the scientists I knew, then you would be great like me.
Yeah. I’d be so great, I’d tell everyone gays were bad because the Bible said so. Then I’d take drugs and pay a gay prostitute so I can have gay sex.
And then, just to show you all how great I am, I’d get caught.
But it’s okay! Now I’m cured of my gay-ness. Praise be to the Lord.
