WWJD?

Jesus would have voted against those yucky gay people too.

Honestly, people, give me one single reason that isn't based on god/jesus/bible for altering our government constitution to pick out one particular group of people and deny them rights. And don't give me this "It harms the institution of marriage" or "preserving tradition" bullshit either. That's just rhetoric to smooth over how flaming a hateful bigot you are. You probably couldn't even explain what those statements mean, only just rehash them again and again like some programmed robot.

I have some news for you. Little House on the Prairie WAS A TV SHOW. Fiction. Fake. Fabricated by writers addicted to heroin and cocaine, just like all the other prime time installations that front as bastions of purity and wholesomeness. It's an illusion...a ghost. There was never a single point in history that everything was pure and white and squeaky clean. Back in those halcyon covered wagon days there was still rape, murder, burglary, adultery and (gasp!) GAY PEOPLE. Denial ain't just a river in Egypt...OPEN YOUR EYES.

So you contend that same-sex civil unions threaten your marriage and family. I hate to notify you, but if that's the case your marriage was already fucked long before the fags showed up, and your children hate you for letting your family spill into dysfunction, not because queers abound. Stop picking on us evil liberals as these Great Satans that introduce demonism into your perfectly-pleated gingham-aproned apple-pie-and-lemonade-soaked rose-colored world. I smell scapegoating. Practice what you so eagerly get up on your soap box and preach while shaking fingers in peoples faces. If you exerted a single ounce of responsibility, your family would be rock solid, able to withstand the rushing tidal wave of those dirty homosexuals trying to bring you down. Would Jesus make lame excuses? I didn't think so.

Ok, I understand the whole 'marriage' terminology thing. Marriage in this country is undeniably a Christian thing. Go ahead and define the word 'marriage' as a man-woman only deal. That's fine, I respect religion. But to turn around and say that gay couples can't even have any legal (read: state granted, not church granted) rights whatsoever, that's just fucking MEAN and VINDICTIVE. Would Jesus rub salt into their already festering wounds? I didn't think so.

My point: Pushing government legislation banning same-sex civil unions using Bible-based arguments is totalitarian and wrong. Think middle ages. Using God and Jesus to push your agenda of repression, intolerance and discrimination is wrong. Jesus loved and died for EVERYONE (including gays), not just those whom you want him to have died for. I'm sorry to put it that way, but you can't believe the bible in slices, conveniently disregarding the parts that don't suit you. Stop being blasphemous hypocrites.

Society will not dissolve with the introduction of change. Change
is the only constant in this world, and it is inevitable. You can
work to thwart it, but it is much more powerful than you, and the
best you can possibly ever achieve is to put it off for a while. If
American society is deprived of the ability to mutate and adapt to
the ever-morphing global community, if the flow of fresh new
ideas is emphatically resisted or swept under the rug, America will
fall into a fundamentalist rut of social rigidity and slowly crumble
like a dry-rotting tire. By creating policy based solely on fear and
paranoia, we will only ever regress into a country of weak-willed
citizens striving to live a media induced, perfect image of some
nonexistant "good ol' days". Let's not sink into another
McCarthy-esque, witch hunt, isolationistic 1950's. Fear it or
embrace it, change will overcome.

I have a dream...that some day the truth will become self evident that all people are created equal.
