Together We can Make a Difference.
“If we are lucky, marriage means finding the person who makes us whole….” as said by Harold S. Kushner in How Good Do we Have to Be.
Many times we forget how lucky one is to find the person who completes them. I am thankful everyday that I found my wife, and that we have been able to spend our lives together. Yet, everyday others, who love their partners just as much as I love my wife, are denied to have that completeness simply because they are deemed different.
Living in a country that prides itself in giving justice to all, we have become very hypocritical nation when it comes to same-sex marriage. Even though they have the same love for their partners as many straight couples do, they are shown an extreme form of injustice. It is extreme in the nature that it signals people out for something they do not control: their sexuality.
It is now time to correct this injustice, and allow same-sex couples to find and spend their lives with the person who makes them whole. I will be doing my part by providing services in order to officiate same-sex marriages. If you want to do your part in supporting this cause, or if you are a same-sex couple, and want to make that commitment, I encourage you to connect with us.
Together, we can make a difference.
We must be the change in the world that we want. We can’t just sit back and assume others will. By being complacent, we allow evil to continue.
Taking this to heart, I have decided to expand the work I am doing in order to hopefully further change. So, starting this month, I will be opening services in order to officiate same-sex marriages.
Now I know that same sex-marriages are not recognized in either North Dakota or Minnesota; however, the government should have nothing to do with marriage. Marriage is between two people, and should not be denied to individuals simply because of who they are.
In a country that values liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, it is time people truly act as if that is true. I hope to be part of this change.
If you want to be part of this change, or are interested in marriage, I encourage you to connect with us.
Garden of Eden.
When it comes to the Garden of Eden story in Genesis, many miss what the story really is telling us. When looked at critically, a message can be gleamed that transcends religious divides, and be be beneficial to humans in general. The message is one that we should all appreciate: it is okay to push and go beyond our limits. Check out the article: The Garden of Eden.
Questions?
In order to make the highest quality source regarding tolerance and religion, we need your help. If you have a question regarding religion, feel free to ask it. Maybe you have a question regarding a certain Biblical verse that has been giving you a hard time, or appears to be “evil.” Maybe you heard a rumor concerning another religion, and you want to get to the bottom of it. Or maybe you just want to learn more about a subject (ever wondered how psychics work? Just ask) . We are here to help.
Whatever your question is, I will try to answer it fully. I are dedicated to making one of the best sources available in regards to tolerance and religion. And with your help, we will achieve just that. So don’t be afraid to ask. There are many ways to contact us on our connect page, or simply send an email to Dustin@Belzian.com, and I will answer it as soon as possible.
“Color is more than skin deep for young African-American women struggling to define themselves.”
This is part of the reason I began the work that I did. No one should feel ashamed or of less worth because of who they are. Regardless of the color of our skin, our sexual orientation, where we were born, etc., we should all be able to accept ourselves as we are, and be proud about that. Tolerance is the key. Check out the following video.
If you have a few moments, we ask you to take some time and read these testimonials from members of the GLBTQ community. If you have your own testimonial that you would like to share, please send them to Dustin@Belzian.com.
Judgment:
Recently I overheard a conversation that showcased the exact opposite ideas that Christianity should stand for. Yet, instead of love, and understanding; intolerance and hatred were spread, and even more, they were purposely spread to a child. This is an incident that should not occur, and one that people need to overcome. Check out the article here: Judgement
Update:
We have commissioned five hand written copies of the “Good Samaritan” narrative to be used as giveaway prizes for those who donate to our fundraiser. Each one is translated directly from the Greek, to give a unique and accurate English translation. They will be written on parchment, in beautiful calligraphic script. Photos will be coming soon (once they are finished).
We are beginning our first major fundraiser here at Belzian. Our goal is to raise $10,000+ in order to further the work that we are doing. This includes furthering our research in regards to homosexuality and the community, the creation of a documentary on the same subject, as well as setting up a number of shows in order to address a number of topics.
In order to help achieve our fundraising goal, we will be promoting this work in a variety of ways. Everyone who donates and helps us achieve our goals, will receive a copy of our ebook Homosexuality and the Community, which is set to be published at the end of this year. They will also be entered into a number of giveaways, which will feature a variety of wonderful gifts.
We will also be scheduling a number of shows, both live shows, as well as online shows. If you want to see one of these shows in your area, send us your city and state, and we will try to arrange one in your area. As for the online shows, we will record them in order so that those who are not able to attend a live show, still get the opportunity to witness one.

As for our first giveaway, jewelry designer Sandra Schell-Geiss, owner of SilverSchells Hand Crafted Jewelry, is donating this beautiful Angelic Infinity Necklace, which is the same necklace created for Jessica Alba. All who donate will be entered into the drawing.
