Faith in the elections.

First off im not trying to create controversy here, i just wanna state some simple and true facts.
The hot topic lately is prop 8, half say yes half say no. Ok got it. 
Now this part goes out for my Christian Bothers and Sisters in God, what does Jesus say about gay marriage? Pretty much NO WAY JOSE!! 
here is some proof for those who believe that the bible is the truth
  Romans 1:26-27  “For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.” 
That simple. 
So what i don't get is why sooo many christians are voting no on prop 8!!!!
Now we have those saying how intolerant "we" Christians are. Not true, we love our neighbor as ourselves its commanded by the bible.
We love the thief, but we don't say stealing is ok, we love the murderer but we don't say its ok to kill
So whats makes homosexuality and different?

Boggles my mind sometimes.

Now for president.. No comment its like voting for being stabbed or shot, both suck.

tattoos

Many people ask the same question with tattoos. Do they hurt?? The answer is very straight forward. YES!!! No pain no gain. Pain is half the experience of tattoos, if they didn't hurt everyone would have them then they would lose a lot of there appeal. 
Through out the years the acceptance of tattoos, piercing or any other body modification has changed dramatically. The work force has been accepting and embracing tattoos now more then ever. Even the religious leaders have been spotted sporting entire arm sleeves.
So if anyone is seriously considering getting a tattoo try to follow these guide lines
First: Thing of what you really want its gonna be there forever.
Second: Ask your friends who have them, they would know way more about tattoos.
Third: Shop around for a tattoo shop( again ask friends who have tattoos.) Don't settle for any random shop!!!!
Fourth( and last i think): Be ready for the pain. It hurts but its bearable my sister didn't cry and she's a big cry baby.

Sweet Playlsit

Heres my song my playlist. For the longest time I limited myself to only metal deathmetal and hardcore.
But as I grew and matured so did my musical taste. Most of my playlist consist of folk and indie. Except for Alexisonfire(which is like screamo, i don't like screamo but i like this band) and The Beatles. I recommend any of these bands to you and I can almost guarantee you will enjoy these bands. CHECKEM OUT!!!!!


                                         Places                            

  The place for which Im providing the soundtrack for is my hometown of Riverside, Ca


  1) This Could Be Anywhere In The World- Alexisonfire album Crisis 2006

 From the very few opening words of the song it describes the hold my city of Riverside, Ca has on me like claws buried into my neck. The song feels like an anthem for the way the city just sucks the very energy out of me.



2) Here Comes the Sun- The Beatles album Abbey Road 1969

Southern California is nothing but sun especially Riverside. The rains were never certain but the coming of the sun was almost guaranteed, so this song just remains me of of sunny Riverside.


3) Coffee- Copeland album Beneath the Medicine Tree 2003

Regardless of the booming size of riverside my friends and I have done everything our time has to offer. So when the sun goes down we try our best to act like big city kids like those in the song. When nothing was left to do we stayed up all night and just drank coffee.


4) Dust in the Wind- Kansas album Point of No Return 1977

Riverside has never been a small town for me, as I grew I realized how small i was in this city. Just dust in the wind or another drop of water in the ocean in a city with over three hundred thousand I just feel like just another head in the crowd here.


5) Comin' Home- City Colour album Sometimes 2005

I was blessed with the incredible opportunity to travel the entire United States for nearly two months. I went to so many states, no matter how far i went nothing was ever like home. The song repeats the same verse through out the song Im comin home. Thats all i could say as i entered the state limits of California, no matter how much i resisted Riverside its home and i was glad to breath in the hot polluted air. It is home.
