The "Brownwood Moons" : What are they "Brewing" ?
----------------
FUNDAMENTALISM AND DEPENDENCY
Fundamentalists create a religious environment of legalistic judgmental fear that makes their followers dependent on a flawed religious system for their peace of mind and sense of security. Abusive sick religion wounds people and then plays the role of healer to fix something that was never broken to begin with. It may be an obvious retreat from reality, but it makes a lot of money, a whole lot of money!
It is bad enough that the misinformed homophobic fundamentalists lead many GLBT people to commit suicide in fear and despair, but for them to amass great financial profit from their evil works is beyond any possible justification. The same can be said for all abusive religion.
Fundamentalists encourage and create dependence on their system by teaching their own misinformation, opinions and prejudices instead of teaching their followers to think for themselves.
SICK RELIGION AND DESPERATION
Legalistic homophobic fundamentalism also makes people desperate, desperate for change, desperate to change themselves to fit the unrealistic demands of sick religion, and desperate to please other desperate people who are out of touch with spiritual reality.
When any kind of stress makes us desperate, we become victims of our own feelings, and being cool, calm and collected becomes a great challenge.
Remember the statement in "Blazing Saddles" about something being "The last act of a desperate man"? The comic reply was, "I don't care if it's the first act of Henry the Fifth!" Desperate acts get us into a lot of trouble, like losing our jobs, losing our money, getting married, acting crazy, and joining abusive churches.
What does it take to make you desperate? Have you ever done destructive things to yourself because you were desperate? I have. Desperation is never a pretty picture. Fear and desperation often go together. Fear of losing your lover, your job, your health, your reputation, your friends, your family, your possessions, or your life can fill you with dread and make you desperate.

If Wayne were in town I'd buy him a cup of coffee at one of Brownwood's Coffee Shops within walking distance of "Historic" Downtwon Brownwood !
