Koran Dominance

I mentioned to a few folks at church a few weeks ago that the Presbyterian Church in Minneapolis has the Koran displayed as the dominant "Sacred text" in their foyer.

Some couldn't believe it.  Here is the photo again.  Notice on the right where they say "Three Sacred Texts"

Unbelievable.

Why don't they just go ahead and bow to Allah and dismiss Jesus in favor of the "higher" prophet, Muhammad..."peace be upon him"?



Hundreds of Quakes Rattle Yellowstone

Yesterday a 5.8 quake rattled Western Montana.

Here:  http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-quake-montana-idUSKBN19R0JV

Also for the last few weeks we have been reading about the nearly continuous small quakes that have been rattling Yellowstone.

As you know, Yellowstone is a massive volcano that could disrupt all of the USA if it ever blows.

You don’t have to be a geologist to understand that an earthquake in the vicinity of a volcano could be a disaster waiting to happen, but what if there were nearly 900 quakes near a supervolcano?

That is the situation that is playing out right now in Yellowstone National Park, where 878 earthquakes have struck since June 12. Most of the quakes had a very low magnitude, but the strongest one, which was recorded on June 15, had a magnitude of 4.4. The park rests atop one of the most dangerous supervolcanoes on the planet, prompting fears that it could be about to blow. Any doubts about its active state can be dispelled by the sight of Old Faithful, shooting water up every few hours.

While earthquake swarms are not unusual in Yellowstone, the week of June 12 saw the highest number of quakes to be noted in a single week in five years. Although the risk of eruption remains low overall and the volcano alert level has not been raised from green, it is believed that if it does erupt, it could be 1,000 times as powerful as the one at Mount St. Helens in 1980.

This particular volcano has been dormant for more than 70,000 years, but that does not mean it won’t erupt again eventually. It’s impossible to predict when that might occur, but seismic activity can signal a potential eruption. Four years ago, researchers discovered that the underground magma chamber of the volcano was more than twice as big as previously believed, encompassing an area of land that measures 56 by 19 miles.

Should the volcano erupt, the resultant ash, smoke and lava would most likely cause widespread devastation in this country and also have an effect on the rest of the world. It is believed that an eruption there would see molten lava hotter than 1,000 degrees, but the biggest concern is the ash. Scientists believe it could emit ash that extends over 500 miles, stretching from California all the way to Texas and Louisiana. It would likely leave as many as four inches of gray ash on the ground, destroying Midwestern crops.

It could also spew out gases like sulfur dioxide, creating acid rain and leading to global cooling by reflecting the sun from the Earth. While it might not wipe out human life entirely, it would certainly create a lot of damage across the western side of our nation.

Another concern in that part of the country is a gigantic well of molten carbon that was discovered under the park earlier this year. Spanning 700,000 square miles, this section of upper mantle is about the size of Mexico and creates specific seismic patterns as solid carbonates melt. If a significant amount of the gases in this deposit are suddenly released into our atmosphere, it could spur an environmental disaster akin to nuclear warfare.

Here;  http://www.naturalnews.com/2017-07-04-yellowstone-reaches-878-earthquakes-in-just-two-weeks-as-scientists-wonder-when-it-will-blow.html#

Holy Armageddon!!  That sounds really bad!!  That would certainly ruin a lot of vacations!!

Could this happen tomorrow?

Yep!

Do we hope this is something that will happen during the Great Tribulation...meaning that all followers of Christ will be gone so won't be here to witness the devastation?

If one day 4 inch deep ash covers the USA and ruins all crops, it would clearly lead to a famine and starvation unlike the world has ever seen.

If 700,000 square miles of molten carbon releases its gas into the atmosphere and makes thousands of square miles uninhabitable in the USA...life as we know it will be gone forever.

For this reason, we believe that God's hand will spare USA from such a disaster until AFTER the rapture of the church.

Jesus said people will be eating, drinking, marrying, planting, building and carrying on pretty much as normal in the time before the rapture.  This is what the condition is like RIGHT NOW....but wouldn't be the condition of things if Yellowstone were to blow and famine, disease and dislocation started killing millions of Americans.

In fact those conditions sound more like what Jesus said would be happening at the end of the Great Tribulation.

Matthew 24
21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.

22 “If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.

Elon Musk Says World's Population Is Accelerating Toward Collapse

When you read the Bible, you come to believe that God has everything under control.  The world is not going to end until He says so.

Temperatures will rise and fall.  Earthquakes will increase, famine and war will always be here.  The greedy people will get greedier, perversion will always be with us...BUT the end of the age won't happen until the appointed time.

God is the alpha and the omega....the beginning of all things and the end of all things.

But if you don't believe what your Bible says, you may have a tendency to believe that the world is careening toward the edge of a cliff and no one is behind the steering wheel....and no one seems to even care!

Elon Musk is one of the most famous businessmen of our time.  Check out what he thinks is coming.

Elon Musk usually tweets about mundane topics, from LA traffic to Tesla projects. On Thursday he was more dire.

"The world's population is accelerating towards collapse, but few seem to notice or care," Tesla's CEO tweeted to his nearly 10 million followers. He pointed to a November article in New Scientist magazine titled, "The world in 2076: The population bomb has imploded."

The piece, written by Fred Pearce points to Japan as a case study for what could go wrong in the relatively near future.

Elon Musk usually tweets about mundane topics, from LA traffic to Tesla projects. On Thursday he was more dire.

"The world's population is accelerating towards collapse, but few seem to notice or care," Tesla's CEO tweeted to his nearly 10 million followers. He pointed to a November article in New Scientist magazine titled, "The world in 2076: The population bomb has imploded."

The piece, written by Fred Pearce points to Japan as a case study for what could go wrong in the relatively near future.

Rather than a meltdown where the Earth's population outstrips the planet's ability to feed everyone, we could be headed toward a more subtle but equally disastrous outcome where our population simply does not replace itself fast enough.

"The world has hit peak child," the late Hans Rosling, a professor at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, said in the article.

Indeed, Japan's fertility rate is 1.4 children per woman, well below what is required to sustain population growth.

While Japan is perhaps the most well-known example of a country's population aging, the article in the London-based magazine also points to Germany and Italy, both of which "could see their populations halve within the next 60 years."

The article spells out some of the problems an older population might bring, including less innovation, cultural shifts and worse and more recession-prone economies.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the nation's population is roughly 325 million with a net gain of one person every 12 seconds.

However, Pearce does point out some silver linings. "Old could be the new young," he writes, adding older societies are less likely to start wars. And, he points out, fewer people on the planet would give Earth's ecosystem a breather:

"Nature, at least, would enjoy the silver lining."

The so-called population bomb has been speculated about for nearly half a century, dating back to at least 1968 when two Stanford University researchers published a book titled "The Population Bomb" that predicted mass starvation in the 1970s and '80s due to overpopulation.

Musk has been known to pontificate on theories outside the mainstream, including famously last June when he said there is only a "one in billions" chance we're not living in a computer simulation.

Here;  http://www.cnbc.com/2017/07/06/elon-musk-the-worlds-population-is-accelerating-toward-collapse-and-nobody-cares.html

50 years ago lots of folks were concerned that we would have so many people on earth that we would all starve because the world simply couldn't feed that many people.

Today, Elon is warning that people in Japan, Europe and America aren't having enough kids to even maintain our population.

He may be onto something if you look at the Social Security charts in America.

When Social Security was put on the books it was assumed that about 30 workers would be around to support one retired worker.  Today we know that there assumptions were drastically wrong.  Now the projections are that 2 workers will one day need to support every retiree....and that math just doesn't fly.

Folks in America used to have 4-5 kids per couple.  They needed the kids for help around the farm and hopefully one or two would be around to help them in the old age...if they made it to old age.

Today, the cost of raising kids and taking them all to Disney World or skiing in Colorado has become so prohibitive that couples may only choose to have 1 or two kids.  Just look around you!  How many families do you know that have 4 kids?

Again, we have no idea if the world's population will explode or collapse...but we rest in the knowledge that God is in control and He isn't worried one single bit about anything.

Vatican Police Break Up Gay Orgy

Another day...another story of perversion coming out of the Catholic church.

Vatican police have broken up a gay orgy at the home of the secretary to one of Pope Francis’s key advisers, it has been claimed.

The flat belonged to the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, or Holy Office, which is in charge of tackling sexual abuse amongst the clergy.


Reports in Italy claim the occupant of the apartment is the secretary to Cardinal Francesco Coccopalmerio - a key aide to the 80-year-old Pope.

Coccopalmerio heads the Pontifical Council for Legislative texts and was said to have once recommended his secretary for a promotion to bishop.

The claims about the police raid last month were made in the Italian newspaper Il Fatto Quotidiano.

The flat involved is a short distance from the Vatican itself.

According to the paper, neighbours became suspicious before complaining about irregular behaviour of those coming and going at the flat.

When police showed up, they reportedly found drugs and a group of men engaged in sexual activity.

It is the latest scandal to hit the Vatican and comes after its finance chief Cardinal George Pell was charged with historical sexual offences.

Here;  http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/vatican-police-break-up-gay-10743972

I know that none of us are without sin.  Paul made that clear when he said ALL HAVE SINNED!...BUT Jesus said that we will be able to recognize other followers of Christ by seeing the fruit that they bear.

When it's a fact that thousands of priests around the world are guilty of sex crimes with young kids, and then you read of the child porn found in the Vatican and then you read of drugs and a gay-sex orgy at the home of a Vatican adviser....it seems hard to deny that there is something TERRIBLY wrong with the folks who are leading the Catholic church.

First Gender-less Baby Born in Canada

The leftists are getting more confused with every passing day.

If they have it their way, from this day forward ALL babies born would get a UNASSIGNED on their birth certificates so the infant could then CHOOSE what gender (from a long list) they identify as once they are old enough to know.

A Canadian baby is believed to be the first infant born without an official gender designation.

The infant, born in November and named Searyl Atli, was issued with a “U” on its health card in the spot designated for the “sex” of the baby, which, according to the BBC, could stand for “undetermined” or “unassigned.”

Kori Doty, a non-binary transgender person and the infant’s mother, is pushing to leave the child’s birth certificate gender-less.

"I'm raising Searyl in such a way that until they have the sense of self and command of vocabulary to tell me who they are, I'm recognizing them as a baby and trying to give them all the love and support to be the most whole person that they can be outside of the restrictions that come with the boy box and the girl box," Doty told CBC.

Doty told the BBC that people who are assigned a specific gender at birth often have a hard time later in life when they want to legally change their gender.

"When I was born, doctors looked at my genitals and made assumptions about who I would be, and those assignments followed me and followed my identification throughout my life," Doty said. "Those assumptions were incorrect, and I ended up having to do a lot of adjustments since then."

Doty said the authorities have refused to issue the infant’s birth certificate without a gender designation, so she filed a judicial review of the case, according to the BBC.

Give it another 10 years and there will be NO MORE men's and women's sporting events.  The women's volleyball teams will be dominated by 6'5 hairy women with deep voices and testicles who identify as "women" and the people with large breasts and ovaries will have to go back to activities that don't require competition....like cheer leading or keeping stats.

Three Men Marry Each Other

If all you have to do is claim that you were "born that way" in order to demand your "right" to follow through on all your desires....we are totally screwed.

"As long as I can remember, I have been attracted to chimpanzees so was clearly born with this desire...which is why I'm marrying by best friend and lover today....BoBo the Chimp".

"Ever since I was young I dreamt of having two gay husbands to share my life, and my bed, with.  I always knew I could never be monogamous because I simply wasn't born that way."

"My first memories of sexual attraction were never about being attracted to men or women.  I was always just attracted to people and it's like I could care less what physical sex they were born as...I just wanted to love them sexually and emotionally.  So yes, clearly I was BORN THIS WAY as a bi-sexual woman."

Now today we read an article that shows exactly what happens when you all society to fall down the slippery slope and let everyone define what marriage is to them.

Three Men Marry Each Other, Demonstrating the Slippery Slope of Morals

Society can’t deny that there is slippery slope when it comes to sex and the changing ideas about biblical standards, Michael Brown, host of the Line of Fire radio program, writes in a column for Charisma News.

“It’s becoming increasingly difficult to deny the reality of the slippery slope,” he writes. “The logical next step is to affirm it.”

Brown’s column comes in response to a Colombian marriage of three men—a polyamorous “family.” Colombia legalized same-sex marriage in 2016 and polyamorous marriage this year.

“‘We wanted to validate our household… and our rights, because we had no solid legal basis establishing us as a family,’ said one of the men in a video published by Colombian media this week.

Brown says an example of that “slippery slope” here in the Unites States would be when a lesbian couple with a child has the help of another man, “all three of whom become parents,” the Associated Press said.

He says that the Human Rights Campaign once argued to remove “transgender” from its campaign to pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. In New York you can now be fined for not accepting the stated identity of a transgendered employee. That slippery slope has now gone to Canada, where a bill allows its citizens to use whatever pronouns they want.

“”Refer to me as ze and zir rather than he or her,” Brown writes.

“And (they say) there is no slippery slope,” he writes.

Here;  https://prophecyinthenews.com/world_news/three-men-marry-each-other-demonstrating-the-slippery-slope-of-morals/

Marriage is defined by God and confirmed by Jesus to be a union that involves ONE MAN and ONE WOMAN.  Sexual intercourse is a wedding gift given by God to ONE MAN and ONE WOMAN who have pledged themselves for life before God.

Of course the people who reject God and deny Jesus want to make marriage out to be whatever they want.

Society simply won't last very long if everyone can claim their right to be allowed to do every desire they claim to be born with.  The fact that we show restraint and self control is what separates us from the animals.

Old Testament Israel once had a time that everyone did what they thought was right in his own mind.

Clearly, it didn't go well for them....just like it won't go well for us to let "marriage" be whatever every person decides it should be.

Judges 21
In those days Israel had no king; everyone did as they saw fit.

Syria Warns of Allied Attack on USA

Here's a good headline that should make Americans sit up and take notice!

Oh....that's right....everyone is at the lake celebrating 4th of July.

Syria warns of allied response in case of US attack

Damascus (AFP) - The Syrian government on Monday warned that any new attack by Washington on the war-ravaged country would provoke an even stronger reaction by Damascus and its allies.

"We would not be surprised if the United States carried out new attacks against Syria," deputy foreign minister Faisal al-Moqdad told reporters in Damascus.

"But they should carefully consider the possible reactions, and should know that Syria's response, and that of its allies, will not be like the one after the first aggression."

The United States carried out its first direct military action against Syria in April, firing 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles at the Shayrat military airport.

It came in response to accusations the Syrian army used the base to unleash a chemical weapons attack on the opposition-held town of Khan Sheikhun in the country's northwest.

Last week, the White House said President Bashar al-Assad was potentially preparing a new chemical weapons attack.

Spokesman Sean Spicer warned at the time that if "Assad conducts another mass murder attack using chemical weapons, he and his military will pay a heavy price".

And Pentagon chief Jim Mattis told reporters that it appeared the Assad government "took the warning seriously".

The April strike on Shayrat was fiercely condemned by Damascus and its allies, Russia and Iran, but there was no military response.

Speaking of that attack, Moqdad cast it aside as a show of force by US President Donald Trump, who had yet to complete his first 100 days in office at the time.

"I believe that the new American administration wanted the world to know that it is strong and can strike anywhere," Moqdad said.

"Of course, crazy men can strike anywhere."

Moqdad also rejected last week's report by the United Nations' chemical weapons watchdog, which concluded that the banned nerve agent sarin was used in the Khan Sheikhun attack.

The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons found that "a large number of people, some of whom died, were exposed to sarin or a sarin-like substance."

It did not accuse the Syrian government of carrying out the attack.

"We said that we will not recognise the results of this investigation and we will not deal with it, because it has no transparency, credibility, or integrity," Moqdad said.

Russia's foreign ministry also said the findings "are still based on rather questionable data".

Please remember that  we WATCH for headlines concerning DAMASCUS because Isaiah 17 says that in the Last Days it will be reduced to a heap of rubble and people won't live there anymore.

Also please notice that sentence in the article that says DAMASCUS, RUSSIA and IRAN...and remember Ezekiel 38.

Have a great 4th of July America!!  This is an awesome country and there is no doubt that God has blessed us and used us mightily to incubate Israel and set up the playing field for these Last Days.

But please don't believe that America will be here forever.  She is not mentioned AT ALL in any prophesies concerning the Last Days...and God is NO RESPECTER OF NATIONS.  He can, and will, set up or tear down any that He chooses.

Daniel 2
He changes times and seasons; he deposes kings and raises up others. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.

Delusions of a Risk Free World

In the past year a massive disconnect seems to have formed in the USA.

In an earlier time, if a Russian plane threatened a US Navy ship...the stock market would go down because of the jitters of a possible war breaking out.

Today, no one seems to care that the world is $200 trillion in debt, or that US voters are so divided they can't even be in the same room together, or that banks are soon going to CHARGE YOU to keep money in their bank, or that pension plans across the country are starting to slide over the abyss of insolvency.

Do you remember back in 2007 when the bank actually paid you 5 1/4% per year to leave money in their bank??  And that was for ZERO RISK!  If you had $1,000,000 of retirement savings sitting at the bank, you could earn $52,500 per year with NO RISK!

Today they might pay you $2000 per year...if you are lucky.

People won't care until the bottom falls out....and then they will all stand around and say, "Why didn't I see that coming??  It all seems so obvious right now!"

It would seem that almost EVERYONE has totally forgotten how scary 2007-2009 actually were.

And clearly there are very few people even alive today who remember how scary WWII was...and that things like gasoline, sugar, and car tires were actually rationed for the war effort.

Today, Rapture Ready wrote their weekly commentary on the Delusion that seems to have come upon us.

Delusions of a Risk Free World

Life is a series of calculated risks. Because we live in a world full of danger, it has long been important to keep tabs of the risks we face. For most of human history—war, disease, natural disasters and economic perils have been major risks to our human existence. The threat of danger made us take preventive action that helped lower the risk of unfortunate events.

In 2017, we seem to have developed a carefree attitude about risks. People look at the chance of various calamities and just shrug with little or no reaction.

Reports have been circulating over the past few weeks that the ground under Yellowstone Park has been rumbling. Between June 12 and June 27, Yellowstone experienced an earthquake swarm of 900 events, the majority of which were magnitude 1 or below. This was the highest number of earthquakes at Yellowstone within a single week in the past seven years.

Since Yellowstone is a super-volcano—if it were to erupt—a vast area of the U.S. could be devastated by the massive ash fallout. As these tremors continue, the amount of concern should rise at an exponential rate.

The folks at the U.S. Geological Survey say there is no reason for concern about the quakes. For three weeks now this government agency has issued a steady stream of soothing propaganda. It even said if Yellowstone were to blow, “the eruption produced would probably be fairly inconsequential.”

I don’t see what is inconsequential about 100 cubic miles of ash covering half of the continental U.S. The USGS alert scale should go directly from “No need to worry” to “We’re all going to die.”

For the past few years, the U.S. and Russia have been playing a game of cat and mouse with each other’s aircrafts. Russian jets would fly dangerously close to our jets and we would occasionally buzz them back. The day will eventually come when the jets will crash into each other. During the Cold War, our military kept a respectable distance from each other to prevent World War III. The current general view seems to be that there is an invisible force that will prevent a collision.

The lack of concern about risk can be seen on Wall Street. I remember when you could detect international incidents by a sudden drop in the Dow Jones average. Today, the stock traders are generally oblivious to news events. Last week, an America fighter jet shot down a Syrian aircraft, and the Dow didn’t even fling. In fact, it went on to close at a record high that day.

There is an index on Wall Street designed to track financial risk; the Volatility Index (VIX) is a complex fear gauge that is based on the price of options place against S&P 500 stocks. During the crash of 1987 it went up to 150. During the Great Recession of 2008, it went up to 80. The VIX is currently at 9, which is right near its lowest reading in the history of this index.

Federal Reserve chief Janet Yellen only sees blue skies for the financial markets. She thinks the changes to the architecture of the monetary system have made it unlikely for us to “see a financial crisis in our lifetime.” History shows that these types of comments typically occur right before a crash.

The optimistic attitude toward risk could be attributed to our strange odds in avoiding calamity. We’ve had a series of major bankruptcies with Detroit, Puerto Rico, and various banks in Europe. Each time there were fears these events might trigger a 1929 style crash, but nothing happened. With the state of Illinois teetering on the edge of insolvency, people are indifferent to the likelihood of the first U.S. state to have its debt downgraded to junk status. People just assume the financial fairies with fix their coming bankruptcy.

We can’t point to good fortune to explain the lack of concern over terrorism. The risk of being killed by an Islamist is growing by the day. We should be using basic logic to assess Islam as a dangerous risk, and then take protective action. The more people that are killed by Muslim terrorists, the more determined our leaders are at labeling this religion as “risk free.”

I think the lack of concern over risk is the result of Satan gaining a stronger foothold in this world. As nations become overrun by wickedness, people are losing the ability to measure risk. The profound level of blindness that we see all around us is a strong indication that the Rapture must be very near.

“The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God” (2 Corinthians 4:4).

Signs of the Last Days

Have you noticed all around you that people seem to believe that "The Good Times are Here again!"?

We were on the lake yesterday and we lost count of how many young families were running around with $120,000 water ski boats being pulled to the lake by $80,000 pick up trucks.

North Korea going to nuke us?

What??  Who cares?!?!

World $200 trillion in debt??

Not my worry!!  Who cares???

Enemies surrounding Israel getting ready to fulfill Ezekiel 38?

What is Ezekiel??  Who cares???

Today Pastor Greg Laurie has his daily devo talking about the Last Days.

Signs of the Last Days
"But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be."

—Matthew 24:37

The font most newspapers use for astounding events is called Second Coming type. These large block letters have announced the surrender of Germany and Japan in World War II and the assassination of President Kennedy. And one of these days, newspapers will use it for what it was meant for: the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

Though we might not have that banner headline on our front pages quite yet, there are certainly many signs of the times. It’s interesting to take an open Bible and an open newspaper or website and look at how so many Bible prophecies are literally being fulfilled before our eyes.

Jesus said the climate of the time prior to His return would be similar to the climate during Noah’s life. In Noah’s day, two sins were predominant: excessive violence and sexual perversion. Genesis 6:5, speaking of that time, says, “Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.”

The Bible also tells us, “For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark” (Matthew 24:38). We could paraphrase that statement by saying it was business as usual.

Noah was building a massive boat, and no doubt the people thought of him as some sort of a crackpot. And in the same way, people in the last days will ignore the prophetic warnings. The writing is on the wall for anyone who will pay attention. Yet Jesus said it largely will be business as usual.

Noah was mocked. And as followers of Jesus, we will continue to be mocked as well. That, too, is a sign of the last days.

Here;  http://us3.campaign-archive2.com/?e=a2c02c8ef7&u=4f108f827aed8d503b5fca9fa&id=7f381103eb

The world will be just like it was in the Days of Noah before Jesus returns for His Bride.  People will be eating, drinking, planting, building, marrying and giving in marriage, going to sporting events, buying big houses, planning their Mexico vacation, buying big trucks to pull all their big toys...and they will have NO IDEA what the heck is going on.....until it's too late.

If you KNEW Jesus was coming back next week, would you be excited by that news or scared to death?

Your answer may tell you something about where your heart is.

"Accidental Gay Parents"

You have to pull up this article via the link below and see the two photos.  You will see a 'man' with a beard who is clearly pregnant.

So let me explain.....

It's a story about a woman who believed she was trapped in a woman's body...so she wanted to become a man.  So she started taking male hormones and grew a beard.  But here is the twist....upon becoming a man she decided that she is a GAY MAN...meaning she was now a man who was attracted to other men.

Wait....doesn't that just mean she is a straight woman who wanted a beard?

It's all very confusing....

Just read about how the NBC News article fawns over this "new American family".

Trystan Reese admits that to some people, the life he has built with his partner, Biff Chaplow, and their two children, Hailey and Riley, can seem a bit mundane at times.

“Our life is mostly picking up soccer balls and driving to Girl Scouts,” he told NBC Out at their home in Portland, Oregon.

But Reese is quick to point out that as a gay trans man married to another gay man and raising two children together, the life he and his partner have built together is a life that many LGBTQ individuals before him could have never experienced.

I was in Texas last September, and I was talking to this older gay man in his 60s, and I told our story, and I asked, ‘Were you able to be a parent?’ And his eyes just swelled up with tears, and he said, ‘Oh sweet heart, I could never have done that,’” Reese recalled.

But for Reese and Chaplow, being a parent is indeed their reality, and the two men have been sharing their story of love and parenthood with others in the hopes of showing that many paths can exist when it comes to making a family.

Their path started seven years ago in Los Angeles, when the two met at a brunch hosted by a mutual friend. At the time, Chaplow was in a relationship with another person, but once that relationship ended, Chaplow and Reese began dating.

“When I started dating [Reese], I knew from the beginning that he was transgender,” Chaplow said. “By that time, I had done a lot of internal work and felt very comfortable in my sexuality and gender. I figured out that body parts matter a lot less than we think they do.”

For Reese, the attraction to Chaplow was immediate. “I’ve been a gay trans dude for like 14 years,” Reese explained. “I’m used to other trans men [asking], ‘Why would you transition to be a man only to be with another man?’ [I tell them] because 'I’m gay, I’m not going to pretend to be straight.'”

Here;  http://www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/accidental-gay-parents-show-there-s-no-one-path-creating-n773756

So wait.....let me think about this.....maybe if I'm a man who is attracted to women....maybe I'm actually a lesbian??

I'm so confused!!

Lord Jesus, would you please come to earth sooner than later and fix this entire fallen planet!  I'm just not sure how much more confusion we can all take!!
