This month
Robin Reardon
continues her Blog — a series of installments using logic and facts, in the form of
an open letter to humanity, to prove that the only thing wrong with
being gay is how some people treat you when they find out.
The Case for Acceptance presents the thinking behind
Reardon’s second novel,
Thinking Straight, about a gay teen who is sent to a Christian
de-programming center to straighten him out.
In the fifth
installment of this open letter to humanity, author Robin
Reardon continues the logical, rational process for
deconstructing and demolishing those nasty virtual cards that
homophobic bigots flash at gays. This time we’ll find out what
our lizard brain is and how thinking can keep us human. The
card? “There’s no need to think; I feel instinctively this is
wrong.” (Read the introductory installment on
Reardon’s blog and find out what a faggot-bag is and where
it comes from.)

- Opportunity to Subsidize Publication of Ayahausca Book by
Bia Labate:
MAPS
(Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies), supporting
psychedelic & medical marijuana research since 1986, has agreed to donate
$2,000 towards the publication of several essays and a bibliography of
scientific papers about the religious use of the Amazonian
shamanic brew
ayahuasca and is ready to accept an additional $2,000 from a donor who
wants to support education about ayahuasca. The book was edited by
Bia Labate and it
contains scientific articles and a bibliography of papers about
ayahausca, as well as other resources. Supporters will be
commemorated on the title page.
MAPS is seeking to raise a total of
$3,500 to supplement the $2,000 that they're donating to cover the
publication costs for 2,000 copies.
The Trance Foundation has
donated $1,000, Julian Babcock has donated $500, and DREAMWalker Group
has donated $250 so far. MAPS had previously
donated $1,500 toward the costs of translating the book, which has been
published in Portuguese. Richard Wolfe and
The Cottonwood Foundation
have also already donated $1,500 each toward the translation.

Richard David Kennedy's blog,
The
Portfolio — a repository for
writers of all genres — continues to thrive.
Says Richard, "We've got some brilliant people here — not a
joke! And I, for one, am always looking forward to seeing
some really creative, exceptionally good stuff. This
isn't about `politics, rules and regulations, or personality
favs.' It's about writing and a place to
express and share your work with others who really do appreciate
the work of kindred souls. And you never know just who may
be reading what is being posted here. Food for thought."
