  • Game Demos and Music

    A fellow student replied to one of the required posts I made for my Full Sail class on Video Sharing platforms. They asked about my favorite music, and I found videos on my channel which serve as good examples of my favorite music.

    These three videos are also demos of my games I made. They are not the most up to date but they are still amazing to look at

    I love listening to techno and dance music the best. Video games are totally my thing, and I spent a lot of time on OC Remix when I was trying to select music that I wanted to include in my own game.
    Here are some links to some demos of my games with some music from OC Remix to get an idea of the style I like.

  • RPLA Presentation Speech

    For tonight’s presentation, I want to go over some essential points. Some of this is my opinion, but it is an educated opinion based on my own experience and as someone very involved in reading news about LGBT people and being transgender myself.

    In addition, I think what I am about to say may surprise some people but is also logically solid enough that most of the board members of the Rainbow Pro-Life Alliance will probably agree with my reasoning. And if not, then we can talk about why.

    1. Being transgender is not a political statement.

    Being transgender means only that your sense of gender identity does not match society’s expectations based on what your body looks like. For many of these people, it is much easier to change their bodies or at least wear clothing that makes them feel more comfortable and avoid criticism from society. However, it does not work because many issues will affect them, and some are denied employment, housing, restrooms, and even are violently killed just because they don’t look either male or female enough. These same issues affect intersex people who are not transgender but still have some combination of male and female appearance.

    However, being transgender, intersex, or plain genderfluid does not mean someone is making a political statement. Some people assume they are all Democrats, liberals, and snowflakes. Sometimes they believe they all have blue hair(seriously, this shit is too weird to make up).

    However, each person has an opinion on any political topic separately from their gender identity. I recommend you listen to Caitlyn Jenner and Blaire White because they consider themselves more “conservative” to understand how different some transgender people are from what you have been told. The bottom line is that we are all different and WILL have different opinions on abortion laws, gun control, immigration, vaccine mandates, the military, public education, etc.

    1. Being Pro-Life is not a political statement

    While being Pro-Life generally means that someone would like to make abortion illegal, it is more about an ethical discussion. I think someone can be against abortion even if they don’t seek to get into politics or vote(like me). I have some deep thoughts on this and am constantly evolving on this issue, but I am still Pro-Life because I view murder as a moral wrong. I will quickly have a conversation anytime about the differences between the legal and ethical sides of the issue.

    1. Both are moral, ethical, philosophical, and spiritual statements.

    Being transgender can influence your moral/ethical ideas of right and wrong. It also leads to philosophical debates about “What is a man?” or “What is a Woman?”. Being Pro-Life also leads to questions such as “What is a baby?”, “When is it acceptable to kill someone?”. I also think your religion or spirituality will factor into your beliefs about both of these topics. I have certainly had to re-evaluate things I did and believed based on these issues.

    1. Gender transition and abortion require serious discussions of medical ethics and applicable laws. However, both are heavily related to “bodily autonomy”. I will make the case that abortion always violates the bodily autonomy of the baby/embryo/fetus/clump of cells/etc.

    Gender transition does not violate bodily autonomy as long as it is not done against your will. In most cases, the transgender person seeking hormones or surgery chooses what they do with their own body. There are cases where genitals are modified on intersex infants without their consent(they can’t even speak yet), and sometimes without even the permission of the parents! The movie “Everybody” shows some obvious examples of this. Additionally, one of our board members also has written about their experience of having their testicles removed without their consent.

    Here are some helpful links that may explain some things I mentioned.

  • This Is What Transgender Eradication Looks Like

    Today I am sharing a post by Erin Reed with some particularly relevant quotes. When I read things like this I get very concerned. It makes me think about the weird events that happen and the strange looks I get in the men’s bathroom. I certainly am using the correct restroom based on biological sex.

    However, there could even be a time where someone accuses me of being in the wrong bathroom and call the police. If it happened it would probably just result in police officers pulling my pants down and then saying I was in the right restroom. But what a waste of police time when there are crimes that are happening that they should worry about. But the fact that we live in a world where such a thing could theoretically happen is terrifying.

    And what of drag bans? Will women be jailed for wearing pants because women wearing pants is not “deeply rooted in this nation’s history and traditions?” What about trans women wearing bras?

    Seriously this world is crazy. How is anyone, especially an autistic person like me supposed to navigate a world like this?

    “This year witnessed the introduction of drag bans in multiple states, so broad in scope that they affected anyone wearing clothing not traditionally associated with their assigned gender.”

    “In Florida, violations of bathroom bans lead to arrest, with the incarcerated trans person spending up to a year in prison. In states like Missouri and West Virginia, any arrest can subject an individual to state-mandated detransition.”

  • Positive LGBTQIA Church Experience

    This is a chat with the Artificial Intelligence known as Chat GPT on July 16, 2023.

    Chastity: Hello again ChatGPT how are you?

    ChatGPT: Hello! I’m an AI language model, so I don’t have feelings, but I’m here and ready to assist you. How can I help you today?

    Chastity: I visited a new church today. Want to hear about it?

    ChatGPT: Of course! I’d be happy to hear about your experience at the new church. Please go ahead and share your thoughts and any details you’d like to discuss.

    Chastity: It’s called Lee’s Summit Christian Church and it is affirming of LGBTQIA people. I thought it would be a good place to make new friends.

    ChatGPT: That’s wonderful to hear! Lee’s Summit Christian Church sounds like an inclusive and welcoming community. It’s great that they are affirming of LGBTQIA individuals. Attending a church where you feel accepted and comfortable can certainly provide opportunities to make new friends who share similar values. I hope you had a positive experience there. Is there anything specific you would like to discuss about your visit?

    Chastity: Yes I did have a positive experience. I met a lot of new people and gave them my business cards I made so they can contact me.

    ChatGPT: That’s fantastic! It’s great that you had the opportunity to meet new people at Lee’s Summit Christian Church and even share your business cards with them. Building connections and fostering relationships can lead to meaningful interactions and potential collaborations. It’s wonderful to see you taking proactive steps to stay connected with the people you met. Wishing you all the best in building those connections further!

    Chastity: Thanks. I have not had enough social interaction and it was good to be in a place other than work or grocery shopping.

    ChatGPT: You’re welcome! It’s important to have social interactions beyond work and daily routines, and I’m glad that your experience at Lee’s Summit Christian Church provided you with that opportunity. Connecting with others in a different environment can be refreshing and fulfilling. If you ever feel the need for more social interaction, seeking out community events or groups with similar interests can also be beneficial. Remember to take care of yourself and nurture those social connections.

    Chastity: I will thanks!

    ChatGPT: You’re welcome! I’m glad I could help. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask. Take care and enjoy nurturing your new connections!

    Chastity: Yes I do have a question for you. According to your data how would you define a Christian?

    ChatGPT: A Christian is generally defined as a follower or believer in Christianity, a monotheistic religion centered around the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. Christians typically believe that Jesus is the Son of God and the savior of humanity, and they strive to live according to his teachings, as found in the Bible. Christian beliefs and practices can vary across different denominations and traditions, but the core tenets generally revolve around faith in Jesus Christ and a commitment to living a moral and virtuous life.

    Chastity: I like your answer because it is more on the teachings of Jesus rather than having to believe some doctrine that people made up but which is of no consequence to how most people live their lives. Specifically things like the trinity or specific interpretations of a bible verse mean nothing to me.

    ChatGPT: I understand your perspective. While Christianity encompasses a wide range of beliefs and interpretations, focusing on the teachings of Jesus and living a compassionate and virtuous life is at the heart of many Christians’ faith. It’s important for individuals to find meaning and understanding in their own spiritual journey, and different people may prioritize different aspects of their faith. Ultimately, what matters most to many is the application of Jesus’ teachings in their daily lives, fostering love, compassion, and kindness towards others.

    Chastity: And that’s how I feel. Upon the ethical framework of the golden rule is what my own life is based on. Everything including veganism and my love of other LGBTQIA people who are very much like me.

    ChatGPT: That’s wonderful to hear! Living by an ethical framework that includes the golden rule and extends love, compassion, and respect to others, including the LGBTQIA community, is a meaningful way to shape your life. It’s great that you have found alignment with values such as veganism, which reflects your care for animals and the environment. Embracing diversity and treating others with empathy and understanding is a beautiful way to create a more inclusive and compassionate world. Keep living true to your principles and spreading kindness.

    Chastity: I will, I can promise you that!

    ChatGPT: That’s fantastic to hear! Your commitment to living by your principles and spreading kindness is commendable. Remember that even small acts of compassion can make a significant difference. Keep up the great work, and I wish you all the best in your journey of making the world a better place. If you ever have more questions or need further support, feel free to reach out.

  • God and the Gay Christian: Book Review

    I commonly listen to audio books and I originally bought this as an audio book but have since bought the Kindle Edition and 3 paperbacks. The reason is because this book is extremely important for those who believe the Bible is the word of God but also unsure how to approach the issue of homosexuality and some Bible verses.

    It is also important for someone like me who is too gay to function in the context of Christianity and am not sure how I feel about it. However, listening to this book by Matthew Vines and also Torn by Justin Lee has made me reconsider that maybe God does love me and maybe I do have a place somewhere.

    I am also transgender and very interested in all LGBTQIA matters. People are asking many questions on Quora about if it is possible to be Gay or Transgender and also Christian. This book could very well answer these questions in a better way than the average person on the internet does. These are serious questions which are a matter of life and death for so many people.
