Disgrace!

Right-wing political forces took advantage of the AIDS crisis to make a scapegoat of gay and lesbian people.

The scapegoat creates political power by ascribing all evil to a vulnerable minority group.

Hitler called it Moral Ease.

It is straight out of the Nazi rulebook.

And it is a disgrace!

The Possessed Boy.

When a father came to Jesus requesting that he cure his son who suffered from violent fits Jesus said: "' You faithless and perverse generation, how much longer must I be with you?  How much longer must I put up with you?'"  Matthew 17:17 (NRSV)

The Lady Aoi.

The Lady Aoi was the principle wife of Prince Genji.

She developed a mysterious illness and was confined to bed.

The Buddhist monks prayed and chanted over her for weeks.

Eventually the demon revealed itself as the jealousy of the Lady Rokujo.

This is a classic story of how our thoughts can affect others.

Murder.

"'You are from your father the devil, and you choose to do your father's desires.  He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him.  When he lies he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.'"  John 8:44 (NRSV)

God Loves You.

God loves gays.

Hate is inspired by the devil.

And prejudice is against the Law.

The Dream.

When we are young we have a dream of a better world.

But unseen forces work against us and the dream is compromised.

Satanism hidden in our popular culture sets out to wreck our dreams.

And impose a living death that imprisons everyone.

For God shares our dream.

But God will not use force or coersion.

So we must persevere and reconstruct our dream.

And overcome those who would destroy it.

But we must use non-violent methods.

And rely on faith, hope, and love.
