America's Next Evolutionary Leap
by D. P. Murphy
Our country is about to experience an enormous Evolutionary Leap; a Nation wide and perhaps
Planet wide Paradigm change. It is entirely possible that America is about to shift the National
Consciousness away from the long prevailing White Male perspective to a much larger, more
inclusive reality. Eight years of a Black President and the very real possibility of our First
Female Leader will shift the Power Structure removing the Historic reign of the White Male
leader. That would be sixteen years without a Male Caucasian Commander-in-Chief; about half a
generation. By then anyone under twenty years of age will not recall living in a White Male
Dominated Society.
In addition, the Queer Community is openly seeking equal civil rights and inclusion with no
“Agenda” beyond being an accepted part of society. Furthermore all the signs point to a real
physical Civil and/or Holy War some time before the Presidential Inauguration. In 1965 I was in
Newark, NJ during the height of the Civil Rights movement. That large Urban Center and
numerous other major cities burned as a very likely result of Political, Religious, and

Government resistance to rapid Social, Cultural, and Civil Evolutionary (Revolutionary)
advances.
Behaviors and Incidences pointing to possible Extreme and Revolutionary Changes:
The Republican Party meltdown; Trump’s threats of violence, propagation of lies
and falsehoods, Racist Speech, Mocking of the Disabled, Blatant & Offensive
Sexism, Deflection as Policy, Vilification of the Media & the Religions of other
Cultures, Imaginary claims of Personal Persecution, numerous denigrations of
American Citizens including Elected Officials and the Military; Pandering to
Racist and Alt-Right Violent Organizations, Refusal to Release his taxes, and so
many other Anti-American Pronouncements; the refusal by Congress to do their
sworn Constitutional duties; their disrespect and preventing the President from
doing his job; the push by Christian Religionists to change laws to discriminate
against a single sector of the population; the passing of the Anti-LGBT laws
which does that contrary to protections guaranteed by the Constitution; the
movement by industrial, business companies, musicians, and Hollywood to place
economic sanctions of the states; the continuing spread of states considering and
passing their bigoted, Racist laws; the Feds threatening to withhold Billions in aid
to NC and other states, and other alarming suggestions are calling for radical,
illegal, and Unconstitutional changes in laws.
The recent changes in Social Consciousness, Gender Awareness, Same-Sex Acceptance,
Reproductive and Civil Rights, and Racial and Cultural tolerances are being threatened by
Religionists, Conservatives, and Fundamentalists.
The LGBT community, their families, friends, and supporters will not back track on these New-
Found Freedoms. "Gay Rights" are Civil Rights, nothing more. Too many have suffered and died
in this Country for who they love just as so many have been and are yet being abused, denied,

persecuted, and murdered for the color of their skin. Once out of the closet no Queer American is
going to acquiesce and go back into hiding. Put too many rats in a box and they eat each other.
Remember Watts, Selma, and Newark in the early 60s.
Neither Skin Color (a result of the amount of the pigment melanin which is the primary
determinant in skin color and the degree of reflection of light off of one’s skin) nor one's Gender
Identity as something other than Heterosexual (Including: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender,
Gender Queer, Gender Fluid, Intersex, or anyone who by self-declaration fits the category
Other) can be considered the sole determiner of any single being's Humanity and/or their Worth
as a Person.
Color, Gender, or Sex doesn’t define anyone wholly just as hair color, eye color, length of their
legs, or size of their ears doesn’t delineate their personhood. Those characteristics do not affected
one's ability to work, to learn how to drive, to vote, wash, think, learn, care, share, parent, or
love. Its irrational to delimit the value of a person with such constraints.
Neither Characteristic is a disability; they are not an infection; they're not communicable; not an
indication of lower intelligence; nor an inability to learn or to teach; not to coach, invent,
perform research, nor do anything cognitive. Contrary to myths and rumors neither Skin Color
nor Sexual Identity limits or enhances body odor, sexual experience or ability, affects one's
perception of Time, makes a person violent, lazy, abusive, makes you steal, cheat, lie, or become
a criminal. Neither attribute renders someone Homophobic, Racist, Sexist, a Physical or Sexual

Abuser, Religious, Atheistic, a Devil Worshiper, Superstitious, a Republican, a Democrat, a
Union member, or a Damn cable guy.
If Skin Color or Gender Consciousness determined any one of the above degrees of humanity or
any of the millions of other Aspects, Characteristics, Choices, Natures, or Behaviors we share
than it would have to affect, influence, and qualify everyone, everywhere, because everyone is a
Color, a Gender, and a Sex. It therefore stands to Reason that Rationally, Logically, and
Cognitively all Skin Shades, all Genders, all Sexual Identities are as much as any other single
Living Human Being Born or Created equal (not just White Males as the ‘All men are created
equal’ statement in the Constitution actually applied to in 1776). Period!
Therefore all people regardless of Color, Gender, Sexual Identity, or any of the characteristics
listed above deserve utmost respect, equal treatment under the law and in the community, the
concern of others, physical and communal personal safety, honesty in all regards, and the
absolute positive regard of others merely and completely by virtue of their birth on this planet,
their humanity, and their membership in the Human Race.
I’ve been researching about what is actually happening to Christianity in our country. They are
screaming about the “Gay Agenda” and how Queers are “persecuting” them. The persecution
feeling they have is based on their belief that Homosexuality is an abomination they cheery-
picked from their fabricated scripture. In 1969 I spent a year studying for the ministry. I was
subsequently ordained into a non-denominational Christian church. With that knowledge and
research I found that most of their quotes from the Bible are chosen to fit the a pattern of lies and

attempts to control people and accumulate wealth. How can someone else's choice of partner,
same-sex union or marriage, sexual inclination, desire for Equal Rights, or holding hands in
Public possibly have any affect on someone else's Lifestyle. It is only a person's Irrational and
Unhealthy Religious beliefs that make them fear another's Civil Liberties and Lifestyle. The
ways in which the Terrorist Religionists and Blind Fundamentalists believe that they are being
persecuted are illusionary. They fear change and are afraid of no longer getting their way. They
have let their directive from their Ministers and Prophets to "spread the Word" become a Mission
to control and subjugate others in the same way they are subjugated by the Church and their
Imaginary Supreme Being. They are not concerned that their Religious rights infringe upon and
take away the Civil Rights of others, especially the LGBTQ community, Women, and People of
Color.
Some complaints of the Religious Right:
Same-sex marriage is destroying the sanctity of marriage as they define it. (ignoring the
fact that the National divorce rate among Heterosexuals is 45-53%).
The idea that they have to service or wait on, sell, provide or produce for Queers
threatens their faith because they think of those people as cursed and children of Satan. (I
just want to buy a cake)
It was Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve, blah, blah, blah. Since the Religionists state
that same sex marriages cannot procreate they are unnatural. Therefore they shouldn’t be
allowed to adopt either. They lie and say that Queers will make their children gay or
sexually abuse them. There is nothing that exists that is unnatural since it couldn’t exist in
Nature. Only man, not Nature, which is everything outside of man’s dominion and
6. Murphy 6

consciousness, ascribes right and wrong to their Reality. Since right and wrong are
human inventions, like everything in man’s beliefs, there is no place for them in Nature.
No right or wrong, no possible Unnatural thing.
If gays do have children the kids would have to go to school with Christian children
which would threaten to damage and “Gayify the religious kids.” I didn’t make that word
up. It was used on more than one Christian website decrying Homosexuals.
The desire by the Queers to attain equality in employment, marriage, law, family, and
other Civil Rights is an attempt, based on their illusionary belief in a “Gay Agenda,” to
destroy Christianity. Therefore, the church must attack first. Since they have deemed us
the sole enemy we have become the Scapegoat and are responsible for all that they hate
about today’s society.
The belief in the need to attack sounds like it may be based on an actual human defense system
which is a major component of the psychological disorder PTSD. Evidence of PTSD is provided
by the church itself. They list a long history of being persecuted by groups such as the Turks, the
Early French, Mongols, Muslims (with examples rampant in the Middle East today), the Jews,
and others. They have to prevent this from happening today. History teaches that cultures, tribes,
classes, religions and other facets of society who experience persecution will themselves become
persecutors. I believe that this is leading to a form of group PTSD based upon the “Fight or
Flight” syndrome. Many preachers on their church supported radio programs are shouting out
about being tired of the Gays pushing them around and taking their Religious Freedoms away.
They scapegoat their own Deity by claiming that God and the church is “not gonna take it
anymore.” How the Hell can they talk for an imaginary White man in the sky? Why would a
7. Murphy 7

benevolent, All-powerful, All-loving God discriminate against and apparently lose his patience
with the Automatons he allegedly created to people His Garden and do his bidding? Why does he
display finite and imperfect Human emotions while demanding to be worshiped and loved under
the threat of Eternal Damnation? Why is his love, protection, and promise of Heaven conditional
at all? Living under the threat of Interminable Fire and Brimstone makes people prisoners not
family nor the Chosen Ones.
If this sanctimonious and hypocritical attack on the Rights and Freedoms of non-believers seems
to be predicated on the Asinine and mindless ancient beliefs and predatory Historic behaviors of
the Christian church that’s because it is. They cling to the Fundamental Dogma and Tenets of a
belief system designed for a unenlightened unscientific civilization disregarding thousands of
years of discovery, edification, and technological advances.
I believe that the Fundamental and Traumatic Fear that they are experiencing today in the form
of their perceived Invisible Persecution is the impetus and motivating factor for the Radical and
Terroristic attacks they are waging on Non-Theists and Non-Traditional Groups and their
members.
Their erroneous and pretentious belief, based on their fabricated and unsubstantiated religious
history and a 2000 year-old book of Fables, that this country was founded on Christian principles
can give them an imaginary sense of Proprietary Rights.

They seem to believe that only a religion like theirs has the Holy and Righteous strength of belief
to fuel such a dangerous and aggressive movement to reclaim White Christian America. I
sincerely hope I’m wrong, but I don’t think so. Too much has already occurred and is in place for
any conclusion but a physical confrontation. If so, we will survive as we did many times before.
With Hillary in office, and if the Aliens don’t show up, I see a better future for what is and
always has been a Great Nation.
