Am I missing something here? Is this 2012 or is it 1950? All over America we
have people starving, homeless, unemployed, and sick without universal health
insurance. At the same time we have a group of small minded people who are
totally consumed with the issue of gay marriage. Now I'm an old grandpa with
twenty four grandchildren so I don't know much about the gay lifestyle.
I do know this however, its none of my bloody business as to who loves who.
If we have an open society, that entitles freedom for all in a democracy why
would these people not have the same rights as everyone else? It was less
than a hundred years ago when we had the same nonsense as to whether women
should have equal rights and even the right to vote. Come to think of it the same
group of right wing over zealous religious people fought that change too.
That is not to say all conservatives or all religious people are opposed to equal
rights in this case, just the uncompromising people. These are people who believe
in a democracy they can control. They in fact want to dictate everyone Else's
concept of democracy. This shouldn't even be a back burner issue, it should not
be an issue at all.
Why is it that some people want to go about hating people who want to love each
other? Was not Christ himself about compassion and understanding? I am willing
to bet that some of these zealots given the chance could straighten out Ole Jesus
on some of his positions they don't like. This whole issue is nonsense.
