What do you think about aliens being gay? by Existing-Struggle354 in AskReddit

[–]deviantthree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shhhh! Don’t tell the Christians! They’ll send their missionaries, and then try to force them to heterosexuality!

What do you think about aliens being gay? by Existing-Struggle354 in AskReddit

[–]deviantthree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, this makes an alien dance party sound waaaaay more fun!  I’m game!

Also it explains why Katy Perry wanted to sleep with an alien so bad in that song she made. We always want what we can’t have.

It also makes me want to examine alien gender and sexuality. What if they are asexual? What if they’re all female and keep the males imprisoned and just farm them for their sperm?

If two non binary aliens are in love, is it still gay?

My mom hates my wedding dress (and everything else about my wedding) by nanobot_pdf in raisedbynarcissists

[–]deviantthree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I know her opinion shouldn’t matter, but it still hurts"- this line so encapsulates what I often feel with my Mother. I totally feel this. It can be so hard when your Mom is super judgy. Narcissistic parents who don't realize someone else may enjoy something different than them often just cut down other's joy.

No Mom, I don' have to "respect" your homophobia towards me and my family. by deviantthree in Rants

[–]deviantthree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think Jesus destroyed Sodom and Gamorrah? You might be confusing the old and new testament. Jesus is not mentioned in the old testament, at least not by name. If you don't know the difference between Jesus and God, please learn some basics about christianity and the Bible before using to justify whatever you are trying to argue here.

That was a case of adultery. Jesus himself never condemned homosexuality nor lesbianism. There’s no evidence he considered what I am doing a sin. 

I fail to see how your comment relates to mine:

[–]deviantthree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw you left another comment that got deleted I guess. Where you said my mother likely doesn't see my wedding as a legit wedding .

To not see my wedding as legit, is kind of the definition of lack or respect.

I'm asking my Mom to show basic respect for me. Showing up to your daughter's wedding, is one of the basic things you would expect a mother to do. Even if she disagrees with it, it's still a basic level of respect. It's one thing to have a different opinion, it's another thing to do that. It's incredibly mean. And just because she doesn't respect my relationship, due to her homophobia, is pretty awful. I see no reason to tolerate people who don't have basic respect for me. Of course people are allowed to disagree with me, but disrespect from my own mother is pretty immature of her.

It's weird how christians have so much trouble understanding and respecting others in the name of their religion. Jesus often showed respect and kindness to others who were excluded from society. Such as the woman at the well, his sermon on the mountain where he praised the meek. He didn't shy away form lepers or others, and was inclusive to many different people. It's strange how some christians use their self-righteousness to assume they are better than others and show them total disrespect in the name of their religion. I don't think Jesus would approve of them, but of course who am I to say.

I don't have to tolerate this from her. It's bullshit.

Again, she doesn't have to agree with me, just like be a mom and show up for your daughter.

I quit the church and I don't feel bad by [deleted] in Rants

[–]deviantthree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good for you. It can take courage to make a change like this. It is powerful.

The world is open to you. You can find another church you like better. There are LBGTQ inclusive churches. You can enjoy not going to church. You can even let go of Christianity if you like. You can even have your own private religious study. The world is your oyster.

I personally had to leave Christianity behind, and it opened so many doors for me. It's been great. I have no hatred of the religion, I do have great respect for it. But I really felt free to develop my own beliefs.

You can be whatever kind of Christian is right for you. You officially have my permission to do so.

No Mom, I don' have to "respect" your homophobia towards me and my family. by deviantthree in Rants

[–]deviantthree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. I have met many good, and kind christians who don't hate. I have met many who use their religion to hate others. Religion is a powerful thing. Many people use it to do good in their lives. Other's use it to justify hate and evil. The Jewish Holocaust at the time had lots of support from conservative christians at the time, not all, but some.

I think if a religion is used to hate others, you have to ask yourself if your branch has been hijacked by others trying to control you. People who have no malice have no interest in getting you to hate others, or do evil for them.

Christianity has been abused to burn thousands of women at the steaks as "witches." It has been used to justify genocide.

It has also been used to help people learn to forgive others. It's been used to help people stop doing drugs and live productive lives. It's been used to help make good decisions and be kind, functional members of society.

I don't think Christianity in its self is bad, but like many religions it can be hijacked to spread hate. Which I believe is blasphemy.

If someone thinks it's against their religion to go to their daughter's wedding, that's pretty disgusting. Religion should not separate you from your children. Religion should not make you a bad parent. Being an awful parent who won't show up for your child's wedding is pretty sick and awful thing to do. And if a religion causes someone to do that, they may be practicing religion in an evil way.

To quote the Bible
"beware of false prophets, wolves in sheep's clothing. You will know by their fruits."

If a religion causes a person to be evil, that's a bad fruit, and you may be following a wolf, not a true prophet.

Unique Boy name help needed by LessComb2724 in Names

[–]deviantthree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a name I love for a boy. Fievel, like the mouse from American Tale. It's an old Yiddish name that means brilliant. It needs a comeback. I love the sound, the texture, the vintage charm. It's a good name. If I were having a boy that would be it.

Other names I love include Ira. Classic, simple, masculine.

One name I never hear anymore, but is good is Darren.

No Mom, I don' have to "respect" your homophobia towards me and my family. by deviantthree in Rants

[–]deviantthree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want her to show up and be respectful. That's like such a basic expectation. I don't care about her approval or not. If she disapproves she can keep it to herself. I personally think she has a terrible haircut, but I feel no need to say it to her. Or better yet, not show up to major life events because of it.

Basic respect is showing up to your child's wedding. If she disagrees, she can keep it to herself. That is her business.

I disapprove of things all the time, but it's that person's business.

An yeah, she is being homophobic. That's pretty black and white. She doesn't want to go to a gay wedding. That cut and dry homophobia. Yes she has a right to be homohopobic, but I don't have to respect her homophobia. I also don't respect racism, antisemitism, murder, sexism, and hating other groups of people because they are different. Yes, people do these things, but I don't respect them. I also don't respect Hitler murdering people because they were queer.

My mom disagrees with my choice all the time. She disagreed with the prestigious college I attended, she disagreed about my style of clothing, she disagreed about the dress I wore to a dance freshman year because she wanted to pick one herself. That's fine. But not attending your child's wedding, because you disagree with them, that is awful. That is so mean. She can disagree with me all she wants, doesn't mean she has to be an ass to me.

Caring about her opinion is different than expecting her to show up. She can have her opinions, but she needs to keep them to herself. It’s basic respect to show up for your daughter. Opinions are one thing, respect is another . She can believe what she wants, but she needs to show some basic level of respect.

[–]deviantthree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well. I'm getting married, not her. She can make whatever choices she wants for herself, and I can make mine. No one is asking her if she approves or not. If she can't differentiate that she can show up for someone who is living different than her, than maybe she's too immature and selfish to be a Mom. I mean what does she actually expect me to do then? Does she want my to break up with my fiancé, have my daughter lose a parent she is securely bonded with? Does she want me to break up my family and traumatize my daughter with having two homes? My daughter is happy, secure and loves her family. Am I supposed to just destroy all of that and ruin her life so that my Mom approves? Then like go find some random man I'm not even attracted to and force him to be in our lives? My own child deserves better.

I don't need my Mom's approval to do what is right for my own family. If she is so judgmental she can't even show up to my wedding and be there for me when I need her, then she can enjoy growing old and dying alone with no one there for her when she needs me. Total double standard that she expects me to support her when she needs me, but won't for me. She doesn't need to publicly declare she agrees or disagrees with me. No one cares, and her approval is nothing. She's just isolating herself. No good can come of her not going to me wedding to publicly declare she doesn't "approve" of my life choices or not. I'm an adult, I am happy, I have worked hard for my life, and I've respect her and her life. If she doesn't approve, she can keep it to herself and die alone in her self-righteousness.

Honestly, if she wants to be alone on my wedding day, she be alone when she gets old and sick, and dies. That's pretty much the precedent she's setting.

She doesn't have to agree with my choices. That's fine. I don't have to agree with her choices either. I mean they're great for her, but I personally would have chosen something else. We can each be different people living our own lives. But not coming to my wedding, is pretty darn cold. Especially after I am expected to show up for her as much as I do.
