What the crap. That’s my profound articulation of this whole male pregnancy thing. You’ve probably heard about it on tv or the net. So guys can be pregnant now? And who really cares, besides the freak show aspect.

My biggest question is why? And science answers: because we can.

Watch this short documentary of the man preg.

This whole thing transcends just mere ‘can we do it,‘ it’s spilling out into gender issues and more. And they  are implying that men are jealous of women for carrying a children? Ha ha. Which guys are you talking to? A beer belly is the only gut you’ll see guys voluntarily sign up for. I respect my wife for carrying our four kids. Did I ever once want to be in her shoes…? No way. Not once.

In this pursuit of being enlightened and pushing the envelope of science, we’ve lost what it is to be human. There’s this immense dissatisfaction with who we are and a desire to change it. We tend to embrace this absolutely absurd idea that - “I should be able to do anything I want.” Well, just because we can doesn’t mean we should.

I’m not angry about this whole thing, I just think it’s profoundly stupid. And keep asking myself, why are we so dissatisfied with who we are?

I’ve been asked over and over lately about where I stand on the issues of the presidential race. Usually I try to change the subject or avoid it all together. I’ve said before that I don’t like politics and don’t trust anyone running today. But if you have to know where I stand… I think that a bumper sticker I saw the other day sums it up. “Scared as Hell in ‘08″. Or apathetic as hell in 08.

I don’t consider myself Republican or Democrat. Both have points and both miss the mark greatly.

I’m pro environment and anti big business. I’m pro choice, but anti-abortion.

I support our troops, but I think war makes sense only in certain circumstances and we haven’t seen those circumstances in decades.

Christians who blindly vote Republican, are certainly not thinkers. They’re pro war and anti abortion. So the message is it’s okay to kill some, but not others.

I’m pretty anti-political. I don’t have much faith in the process, feeling that money and companies run most of it. So I choose to do the best with the time I have. I believe in helping the poor and those in need. I just do what I’m called to do and not worry about politics.

And who do I like for president? Hilary is scary. McCain is creepy. And Obama is good at sounding good.

So that’s where I stand. What about you?

A town in South America is living in fear after several sightings of a ‘creepy gnome’ that locals claim stalks the streets at night.

Guess he’s a St. Patty’s day hold over. Nobody told the little guy to turn the costume back in - he may lose his deposit.

Here’s the evil gnome caught on film.
