Buzzfeed Is A Joke

Once again, the left attacks successful Christians

Buzzfeed Is A Joke

So last week the fake news site Buzzfeed (along with others such as the not so wonderful Cosmopolitan) released an article about Chip and Joanna Gaines who have the show "Fixer Upper" on HGTV. Now the piece is just another cowardly attack on Christians because Chip and Joanna go to a church where, get this, the pastor reads the Bible! What a bigot am I right? The article has since been updated, but the original intent is still well-known.

Bullying Christians has long been a favorite past time for those on the left. It happens all too often and if you say anything they just respond with "It's not a thing, it never happens." Oh but it does happen, all the time. It comes as a shock to them that apparently millions of Americans believe in traditional Christian values. All those bigoted homophobic people (satire). Now Christians believe that homosexuality is a sin and many on the left believe it is not, both different beliefs. However someone having a different belief does not fly with the left. See, the left claims to have the moral high ground (though most of the time they are relatively immoral) and thus bully those with different beliefs.

This ridiculous tactic is used all the time by the media and Hollywood, and it is not very effective. You want to know why Trump won? Insulting his supporters or those who reluctantly voted for him is a huge reason. Articles like the one in Buzzfeed or the one from Cosmo could easily be described as "Reason #83 as to why Trump won". The left just does not get it though, they go on the extreme thinking it will be effective and it has backfired on them instead.

I am not surprised that an article like this came from Buzzfeed. The "journalism" that they have is really just nonsense. They are on the same level of ignorance as other sites like Huffington Post, NowThis, Seriously.tv, ThinkProgress, Salon, Occupy Democrats, Vox, and The Young Turks. There are plenty more, trust me. These sites have a fairly large influence on millennials, just scroll through most of the articles here on Odyssey and it becomes obvious where these "writers" get their news.

The piece on Chip and Joanna Gaines is absurd. Just like how it is absurd for those bakers to lose their business. The definition of a bigot simply put is one who is intolerant towards those holding a different opinion or belief. Chip and Joanna, those bakers, or any other person who believes in traditional Christian values are not bigots. Can you guess who are the true bigots?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
