Time to Think

I was thinking about some of the issues in this world. Some of them make me very angry. Well you start off this weekend I went to NICHE and started to think about all the arguments in the world. NICHE is a homeschool conference.
One of the issues that makes me angry is homosexuality. People say that "oh I was born gay its just my nature". Well that's a BIG lie. When a farmer has some animals and he sees two of the same sex trying to mate and not interested in the others he will get rid of them. Why? Because its first wrong and also NOT natural. But for some reason in society people think that its ok for humans to be gay but not animals and that we have some sort of excuse. That just makes me SICK! When I was talking to a man at the NICHE conference he had some very good points. When two people of the same gender decide that they are going to get married it is a perversion of what it is marrige supposed to be. The Bible says that marrige is supposed to be between a man and a women. NOT a man and man or a women and women.
Lets say that you see two people eating. The first person is putting the food into their mouths. The second person is putting the food up their nose. Would you knowing that you eat with your mouth believe the second person when they say "I like to eat this way. I was born to eat like this"? I think NOT! Well that is the exact same thing with homosexuality. People say that its normal but its not. Its not natural and its not Biblical.

Another subject is abortion. Why do people say its alright to kill an innocent human life before it is born but then not ok after birth. Lets say that I kill two people. One person is your average guy middle age 30-40 years. Now let the second person be a baby that has been born only an hour ago. Now what is worse killing the baby or the man. Neither is worse. Now lets say that Theres a baby that was born an hour ago and theres another that will be born in one hour. Lets say I kill both. Your average person would now say that it is alright to kill the baby that isn't born yet but not the baby that is born. Why? What is the difference? Just because the first baby is breathing and the second one isn't? People say the reason is because the baby that isn't born can't fend for its self so its alright to kill. But isn't it also true that if you left the one hour baby alone for a week you would come back to see it dead? Did it fend for itself? No. My view about pregnancy is this. Even though the mother of the child is holding the baby. Its not hers. Its Gods. She is just carrying it for Him temporarily. Its like when you let a friend borrow something of yours and he lets another person borrow the thing and so on. Just because the person is holding onto the thing and taking care of it doesn't mean that it is theirs. It is still yours.

Another thing is the bill that the UN is trying to pass. If you haven't heard the bill is basicly giving a child the right to do whatever he wants and you as a parent can't do anything. If you try to do something then you will get fined. Now do you think that that is what society needs right now? A ton of children running around doing what ever he wants and you not being able to stop him or her. Last time I checked children are not capable to take care of them selves to a certain extent. The reason why there are families is so that the parents can help the children learn and help them mature.

I hope that you will think about some of the issues that I talked about. Stand up for what is right not just for what is easy and fun. For all the teenagers who are reading this change this generation. Don't let people think that teenagers are just dumb and lazy. I strongly recommend reading the book "Do Hard Things" by the Harris Brothers. They talk about rebelling against the low expectations of a teen. Do we want to be known for being lazy and dumb or do we want to be known for taking the extra step and rebelling against those low expectations.?

NC

Hey its been along time since I've blogged. The reason why is because I was in Georgia for a week at a camp. The camp is called NC (national convention). Its like the Teenpact that I went to earlier this year but just national. People from all over came. It was alot of fun. The day basicly started like this:
8:00-8:45 breakfast don't have to eat but its a good idea.
9:00-9:45 bonjour (quiet time)
10:00-10:45 announcements and singing
11:00-11:45 Smallgroup (a group game and Bible verses)
12:00-12:45 lunch amazing food and a big glass of sweet tea
1:00-3:00 singing and speakers
3:00-5:00 free time and ultimate frisbee tourny for the people on teams
5:00-5:45 supper more great food and another glass of tea this time plane
6:00-9:30 singing, prayer, speakers, and election stuff.
9:30-10:00 coffee house.

The singing was awesome! On friday night after prayer during singing people everywhere (me included) started crying very hard. I could feel the presents of God in the room. It was an amazing experience.
The elections were alot of fun. People would go all out campaigning. I got some cool shirts from them and lots of candy.
Coffee house was also fun. My friend, who I met at the airport, and I would go around annoying my new "older sister". My friend, Ian, is also my new "little bro". My new "older sister" is named Bobbisue. A very cool name if you ask me. She is from Montana which is another cool state because it has snowboarding.
On the last day of coffee house my little bro and I would go around to people we knew and scream into their ears. Of course not actually scream but over emphasize it. We made alot of the people they where talking to just stop and laugh super hard. When the victim would look around we would just act like we were walking by. Lots of fun.
One bad thing about NC was the bugs. They were everywhere. When people would be sitting around for bonjour someone would just jump up screaming and slapping their legs because of the bitting ants. And there were HUGE bees. Imagine a bee 2 inches long and fatter than a nickel flying around. Not fun.
Well its getting late so I"m gonna head off to bed.
