MISSION STATEMENT

 

'There's not a morning I begin without a thousand questions running through my mind,

That I don't try and find the reason and the logic in the world that God designed.'

Words by Alan and Marilyn Bergman - from the Barbra Streisand film 'Yentl.'

What's it all about ?

 


 

It is about accepting ourselves just the way we are and appreciating that God, or whoever and whatever you may call it,- loves us just the way we are, and that we don't have to believe a single word of the Bible, Koran, Talmud or anything in order to feel accepted and loved.

we just need to believe in ourselves
as part of a universal family
gay or straight
black or white
woman or man
sexual or celibate
old or young

It is about sharing some alternative truths to the ones we have been told
for a millennium are the only truth, while we as gay people
know much of this to be intrinsically in error.

It is not about pushing religion or promoting celibacy.
It's not about being judgmental or promoting therapy.
It's not about forcing attitudes on people or about damning others for being different.
It's about acceptance.

It's about accepting our sexual and emotional differences
as being part of who we are, and finding peace with that.

Its about love
for yourself
our family
our friends
our world
our God of choice

and hardest of all
love for those who would deny us


It's about being part of a society that often damns and lives in fear,
and one that many of us feel abandoned by,- accepted by,-
loved and/or hated by,- while society itself is just as fearful and just as scared,
just as passionate and just as wonderful, - and just as wrong - or right.

It's about opening our eyes to the wonders around us on a daily,
moment to moment basis, and being thankful we are alive.

It's about sharing things that work for us and help us in our daily lives.

It's about you.
It's about me.
It's about everyone, regardless.

you are not alone


Through an open and diverse spiritual, metaphysical, holistic, new age, complimentary and alternative lifestyle of spiritual and self development, we wish to share a journey with you that can assist in enlightenment of many issues that affect us all, in many ways.
For too long we have been abused by the very institutions
set up in order to save our souls while actually being busy in damning us
to the hellfire's just because we were seen as different and 'queer.'

It's about reclaiming our rightful place in society,
in church and in our souls,
as being a part of the universal energies of life, God and all that is.



This is not a Christian site - and we do not promote Christian philosophy
or any organized religious dogma.

We are open to all pathways and all ways of treading along that path,
as long as it comes from a loving perspective and where
NO-ONE IS HURT EMOTIONALLY, PHYSICALLY AND MORALLY

Many avenues - such as sexuality - have been shut off to us
and we will share some of the alternative truths surrounding this much misunderstood subject and why the church and various religions have made it the way it is.
 


We welcome your constructive input, ideas and comments -

true or false

This web magazine is huge and is constantly being updated and I will point out that there is not one single word of truth held within it. Not one word is accurate, honest or precise - and as in life - BELIEVE NOTHING you EVER read, hear, witness or experience unless it resonated within YOU as a truth, and then find out for yourself.  Read and ask questions - get 2 or 3 books on the same subject and get a more rounded viewpoint and not just from one writers angle. Never stop asking questions and find your OWN truth,  one that FEELS RIGHT - and one that comes from a loving place, and then allow that truth to be within you and LIVE YOUR TRUTH and be an example for others. Share your truth and never blindly 'follow the pack' assuming it is the correct path, the correct truth,   just because everyone else considers it so. Stand firm in your truth and always be open to new truths,  new ideas, new concepts and new areas of belief.  Be brave enough to stand out from the crowd and be an individual.  Follow your own path, with loving intent,  always,  for through your truth,  you will be set free
