prop8 BS
I said this on twitter this morning:
"I am so tired of all the prop 8 shit. tired of it when I voted on it, tired of it now. I don't like either side's arguments either."
And here's my deal:
I don't care who you fucking marry. I really don't*. The hetro crowd isn't doing great things with the institution anyway. I know God isn't a fan of the gay lifesytle, but ya know what? He dislikes divorce even more. (notice I didn't say he dislikes gays, just their sexual decisions. big difference that intolerant fucks don't get).
but yes. God HATES divorce. BIG TIME. what the fuck christiandom? There's divorce all over the place. Let's do something about that before we get all crazy about more marriages. It's not like we as Christians are doing any better with the divorce rate than the secular folks. Yes, I am a Christian and married so include myself with their ranks. However, when I made the vow UDDUP**, I meant it and plan to keep it. (for the record, Jews, Christians and Muslims all agree and believe the old testament and God's lack of compassion for same sex relations, so it's NOT just a Christian thing)
So, Gay and Lesbian people want the right to marry. go ahead! they can't do any worse than the Hetro couples have done. what about those atheist hetros who never want kids, getting married by a judge in court? No "family" potential there either. I however am tired of all the fucking whining "It's not fair! I want to marry who i love!" But it's not about that. No really, it's not.
stop and fucking read. then rant away.
-----------------------------
the whole argument comes down to ONE POINT.
The nature of being gay as a choice.
To most Christians (Jews, Muslims, etc) it's not a question of bigotry, as a skin color prejudice is, becasue gays CHOOSE to be gay, so why should they get special treatment for their choice?
Most Gays believe they are made that way and feel VERY differently. They feel persecuted, and understandably so. "I didn't choose to be like this. You're not giving me equal rights."
I'm quite sure some people DO choose to be gay. Good for you. While others KNOW they have been gay their entire lives. Good for you too. enjoy.
BUT UNTIL THIS ISSUE OF CHOICE IS SETTLED SCIENTIFICALLY THIS DEBATE WILL GO ON.
and sadly, even then it won't be over. How do you separate the ones that chose and didn't choose? Will the Conservative right accept the science?
there is nothing but drama in the future. and I HATE DRAMA.
-----------------------------
SO: gay marriage? frankly, I don't see the problem. I don't care much either way.
I DO CARE ABOUT DIVORCE.
Divorce is rampant and is destroying marriage and families all over this country. Divorce tears everyone involved asunder and scars them for life. Don't make it illegal, but bring back FAULT. Infidelity? great reason to divorce. "Oh I fell out of love," or "we just don't agree on things anymore." NOPE. NOT GOOD ENOUGH. Husband beats you? DIVORCE THE FUCKER. She won't give it up because she is an ice queen? NO CAN DO. Warm her up you fool.
If you're unhappy with my view, go ahead and comment. I'm sure God's a bit peeved at me too.
*okay, I lie. Don't marry idiots or abusive fuckers. That might help. And you might want to have known them more than a couple of hours. Seeing as you're going to spend the REST OF YOUR LIVES WITH THEM.
** Until Death Do You Part for the numbnuts out there
