Stop the Insanity

As a previous citizen of the US, and having to continue to
read the shameful ways Americans are allowing this kind of insanity
to go on, is just more justification for why I left in the first
place. The insanity is that allowing gay people to marry is even in
question. It should never have been a question in the first place
as it should never have been a question as to whether slavery was
right... Whether women should be allowed to vote and whether black
people should be respected and given the same general rights and
opportunities as white folk. In my own mind, these are just obvious
things and its so shameful that Americans still need to squabble
over such things when the rest of the world (For the most part)
have already become somewhat enlightened in these matters.
The other thing that bothers me most is how everyone who is a
Christian or religious seems to turn this whole thing in to
something about them. Not everyone is a Christan nor cares what
your opinion is about this matter. And no, Marriage has nothing to
do with your religion no matter what you book of ancient text and
scrolls tends to say. Its meaningless to most sane thinking people.
And Christianity for the most part causes more harm to people than
almost anything else. It teaches intolerance and hatred and bigotry
towards those who don't share your views. Shame on you. I even read
where Christians believe that Gay marriage hurts kids and that it
confuses them. How about imaginary fairy tales of invisible beings
that love and care for you but are never seen, but will send you to
a lake of fire if you don't obey him. Scaring children in to being
"good"? Again... Shame on you. Also... the biggest thing that
angers me is seeing Christians compare homosexuality to bestiality.
I believe that too many Christians have a preoccupation with animal
sex and that its very strange that almost all of them go in that
direction when trying to debate gay marriage. Despite what
Christians believe, what human a person loves, is their business
and it should be accepted by the general public and those people
should be given the same equal rights. So please, stop telling me
and other homosexuals that its like having sex with animals and
that somehow its unnatural and not normal. I believe most likely,
Christianity is not normal, and more harmful.
Stop debating over common sense things and focus on things
that need fixing such as the real separation of Church and state.
+*Marriage and unity of loving people is a basic human right
for everyone regardless of color, race or sexual preference.* +
