subject: you people disgust me (well, not all of you)
reading all of these posts has made me sick to my stomach, i`m 15 years old and it seems like i have more sense than alot of you. i totally understand that people have the right to their own opinion but they don`t have the right to disrupt anyones happiness if it`s not hurting anyone. it disturbs me how someone can let a few thousand sheets of paper with words on them dictate so much of what they believe. if the bible said gay unions were perfectly acceptable, how would you all feel now? i`m not a christian, but i do believe in some kind of higher power, i just don`t let a book decide how i live my life. lets take this into consideration, my mother says its selfish for a gay couple to raise children because it subjects them to ridicule, i think this is the biggest peice of shit i`ve ever heard, that`s just like saying black people shouldn`t have kids because of racist assholes, my mother had 3 kids, so is that selfish of her? because i've been called a "******" countless times, i can't help this and neither can anyone else, it just happens. deciding the happiness of someone else is none of the governemnts concern. if the white house were to control everything that the bible deems wrong this world would be a HELL of alot different. but i`m sorry, i guess i`ve been under the silly little impression that this was a free country and the whole "life liberty and the pursuit of happiness" actually meant something....my bad, stupid old me
