Frenemies

Posted in friends, rant with tags , , on July 1, 2009 by pithstop

Let me just clue you in a little.

Those people that you love so much? They just put up with you. It’s called being polite.

Hanging out with someone 7 times in 5 years does not best friends make.

I’m glad they were dear enough to worth sacrificing a real friendship over.

Good job, asshole.

I want Proposition 8 to f*ck you up the *ss

You know, I’m happy that we finally elected someone other than an old white guy to be our president, I really am.

But you know what else?

I am ashamed.

I am ashamed and appalled that anyone in our country can oppose gay marriage.

So much for tolerance. So much for progression.

I quite simply can’t understand the mentality – you have got to have a lot of hate in your heart to want to deny another human being basic civil rights just because what turns them on turns you off.

And for those who hide behind the veil of Christianity for validation of their bigotry, whatever happened to separation of church and state? Why should any religious morals dictate a law? If your religion doesn’t allow homosexuality, then here’s a thought: don’t allow gay marriage in your church. Why force the rest of us to abide by your religious views? Or do you think it should be illegal to eat meat on Fridays, too?

How about, just because you don’t like something, which is not hurting anyone, you don’t get to make it illegal? Spare me the BS about undermining the institution of marriage. Look at the divorce rate in this country. Do you really think gay marriages will make it worse?

Well hell, if we’re going to say that the only marriages that are legal are the ones which coincide with what gets you off, then I guess no one who has a relationship based in BDSM should be able to get married. No one who likes to dress up in latex should be able to get married. Why? Well I think it’s sick! It’s disgusting! Let’s make it illegal!

How malicious and spiteful can you be to say to someone, Your love is not as good as mine. Your love is not as valid as mine. What kind of egotistical, arrogant asshole do you have to be to want to dictate what is and is not a valid marriage?

If you think gay marriage is wrong and an abomination and gays are going to hell – why can’t you just keep those thoughts to yourself? That way you’re not hurting anyone else (Do unto others, and whatnot) and guess what?  You might actually be *gasp* wrong!!! What if God, being so good and all, decides that ‘Hey, just because seeing another man’s flagpole makes yours rise, you’re not completely evil and damned for all of eternity’? Even if God is bitchy like that, to damn two people to hell for all of eternity because they dared to commit to love each other as long as they both shall live, shouldn’t you sort of let Him judge that?

And let’s not try comparing to murder and how God says that is bad, so it’s ok to make it illegal. Guess what – Christians don’t hold a monopoly on the moral right. Someone can be an atheist and still think it’s not a-ok to kill someone else. Just because a priest happens to believe the same thing doesn’t make his word the bottom line.

Look, why don’t you just keep your hate inside, let it fester and boil over and eat you away from the inside.

Don’t puke it out all over the rest of us and make us suffer, too.
