some things to think about…
I have been trying to decide how to approach last week’s Prop 8 decision in California. Should I throw a bunch of facts, stats out there and educate? Or should I chastise Prop 8 proponents for forcing their hate onto others. Because no matter how you spin it, denying people their civil rights is hateful and wrong. Hide behind your fictitious ”good book” all you want, it does not, nor will it ever justify hateful discrimination. If there is a god — this wonderful creator so many worship — and I was a “believer” than I would chose to believe in this entity not as a fearful hate filled energy, but rather a loving, caring soul connecting all of us on a higher level. (This also explains why I left the Catholic Church and shun organized religion all together, but I digress…)
After watching this message from Keith Olbermann, I realized I could not have phrased my disgust more eloquently…
until next time…
**Note: I do have many evolved friends who are both religious and supporters of all people and all their civil rights and I am SO THANKFUL for those individuals. When discussing religious zealots against Prop 8, these individuals were by no means classified into the same group as those other hate-mongers.
