In the current society, when the GLBT community has not been granted the same rights and liberties as the straight folks, here’s my “cheer up” news to the community: God is gay, lesbian, bisexual or a transgender, but definitely not straight.

According to Bible, God said “let us make man in our own image according to our likeness”. It is very interesting to note that God says “us” and “our”. Isn’t this enough to make us realize that there was not one creator God—there were two or more of them? Could it be two male Gods? Could it be a male God and a female Goddess?

But, the Bible refers to God only in a singular form, never in the plural form. Therefore, we can rule out the possibility of multiple creators, which means there should have been only one creator God. But man being made in “their” own image implies that the God was bisexual. Otherwise how could one God be the model for both man and woman? Of course, God could be either a beautiful gay man or a handsome lesbian woman. God could also be a transgender or a cross-dresser. Those would satisfy the condition that both man and woman look like Him/Her.

Speaking of a single God being both a man and a woman, one can’t help but bring Lord Shiva into the discussion. Shiva is one of the three major Hindu gods. Although Lord Brahma is considered the creator God, Shiva could have helped or even taken over from Brahma the job of creating the world. Because, you see, Brahma was busy having an incest relationship with his own daughter. He was too busy to have finished creating the world on time. So Shiva must have taken the job over from that sleazy Brahma.

Now you may ask “Okay, Shiva may have created the world, but what’s your point?” Here’s my point: Lord Shiva had many forms. One of those forms was a he-she form: a half man and half woman. Therefore, man and woman could have been created by Lord Shiva during his mixed form. And, that would fit right into the creation story of Bible, where man is created in “their” own image. But then the question arises: What do you call a half-man-half-woman God? Gay? Bisexual? Transgender? All three? I’m not sure, but it does rule out the prospect of God being “straight”.

Speaking of the he-she creator God, the Egyptian myths suggest that in the beginning, the creator God, Atum, created himself using his thoughts and will. He made a union with his shadow, and created more gods. The union with his shadow could be a metaphor to suggest Atum’s bisexual nature. And this may, as well, be the reason why the Egyptians call him the “Great He-She”.

Genesis mentions woman being formed from Adam's ribs, and Quran mentions woman being created from man's nature. In Arabic and Hebrew “rib” means nature. The whole “Eve was created from Adam's ribs” that we’ve been hearing could as well be a case of lost-in-translation, couldn’t it? Could the Atum from the Egyptian myth and Adam from Genesis be the same person?
If they are the same person, then the Genesis’ description of Eve being created from Adam’s nature tells us of the inherent femininity in the bisexual or transgender nature of Atum or Adam. And, what does that mean? Well, to me, it means Adam was either bisexual or transgender because his God-father made Adam in his own image.

So, GLBTs, don’t be mad when straight people don’t give you equal rights. Cheer up, since “you” are the true children of God, and not “them”. Because, like I am trying to say, God is not straight.

I read in the news, many months ago, that people in Canada were concerned that the 18 billion dollars that their federal government was thinking of spending in healthcare for the next six years would cause a deficit in their economy! Do you really think that they were worried about the deficit? It�s only 18 billion dollars. It�s not even the American dollars; it�s Canadian dollars.

Of course they�re not worried about the deficit. They�re only teasing the Americans, to put it nicely. They were pissing the Americans off, to put it bluntly. They don�t want to let go of the opportunity to ridicule America for the something-trillion dollars American deficit. But they did not know that the Americans did not know that they were being ridiculed at.

Speaking of news, there is never a shortage of weird news in the world, is there? Take for example, in the June of 2004, Norway�s government did not allow Skjargard School�s official registration papers to be filed. For those of you who don�t know, Skjargard is a Christian fundamentalist school that receives aid from the government. Now, the reason why the papers were not allowed to be filed was because the organization�s chart showed Jesus Christ as its CEO. Turns out it is not a good idea to list Jesus as your CEO.

Having Jesus as your CEO means, in case of any wrongdoings by the organization, the authorities would have to question Jesus Christ! I guess the school�s members were being smart by putting Jesus� name because they knew NOBODY could dare question the Son of God. On the other hand, they were also being dumb. If someone actually did want to question the Son of God�thus damning himself or herself to hell for eternity�Jesus is already dead! What�s the questioner supposed to do? Wait for Jesus� third-coming?

While we are on the topic of church and God, you may know by now that the Pope angered the Muslims recently when he quoted something that someone wrote 500 years ago to suggest that the Muslim prophet Muhammad advocated violence and killings. When the Muslims asked the Pope to apologize, the Pope said he was sorry that his comments were taken as offensive. He added that by saying what he said, he was actually trying to start a dialogue between the two faiths.

If degrading and demeaning the Muslim prophet is how the Pope thinks we should start dialogues between Islam and Christianity, then the Pope need not worry. He should be proud that the Christians already got a head-start on the dialogue when centuries ago they accused Prophet Muhammad of being a pedophile. But, here�s my question to the Pope: Why the special treatment to Islam? Let�s also start a dialogue with Hinduism by calling Krishna a playboy, with Buddhism by calling Buddha a crack addict, and with Scientology by calling Hubbard a child molester.

Going back to some non-God news, my secret sources tell me that the CIA has uncovered a plot about the next attack on the U.S. According to the intelligence gathered by the CIA, the next attack on U.S. soil will be in New York�again. But this time it�s not the Al Qaeda, it�s the French. They want their Statue of Liberty back. CIA intelligence says that the French, apparently, seem to have had enough of being the butt-joke of every late-night talk shows in America.

But again, the CIA cannot really be trusted when it comes to their so-called intelligence. They have, lately, been getting too many bad ones if you ask me. The CIA has lost so much credibility that, now days for me, the CIA is to intelligence what Fox is to fair and balanced news. Anyone remember �weapons of mass destruction� and �yellow cake�?

Of course, I could care less about the weapons of mass destruction, but I surely wanted to taste a piece of that cake which, as we all know by now, never existed in the first place. Now I will have to die wondering what the much hyped and much advertised (mostly in the fair and balanced Fox News) yellow cake actually tastes like.
