So, I seriously was really mad driving home today. There were a bunch of people holding picket signs saying "Yes on Prop. 8". I am so sick of people trying to get other people to vote yes on prop. 8 with their unreasonable and ridiculous so called "reasons". Flat out, it's unfair. It's unjust. It's discrimination. All of the so-called Christians saying that it is in the bible and it is a sin..blah blah blah. If these Christians or whoever are so for love and God, why are they so quick to discriminate God's own children. The bible says that God loves EVERYONE. The constitution states that all men should be created equally. Everyone, no matter who they are, deserves the right to love who they want and should have the right to spend the rest of their lives together as a married couple.
In the bible, lepers were seen as sinful people and no one wanted to associate with them. Sound familiar? But wait, what did Jesus do? He walked among them. Why can't everyone do the same thing now? It seems like people are scared to accept something that's different to them. But we should accept people for who they are. We are all children of God. And if Jesus can do it, our society can do it. This proposition is not about religion or teachings in school, which by the way, marriage isn't even taught in school so that is not even an issue. Although, if it were to be taught, don't you think more people would be open and more knowledgeable about all different kinds of people? I would expect by going to a Christian school, that people would be saying no on prop. 8 because they love everyone and want everyone to be happy just like God would want. All of the yes on prop. 8 excuses are ridiculous. Give love a chance. Give people a chance. Give people the benefit that you would like to have, no matter who they are. Do what Jesus would do. Do what God would want us to do.
You don't have to know who is getting married. You don't have to attend the wedding. Just give people the right to marry the one they love. Everyone deserves the right to be happy.
NO ON PROP. 8.

Yeah I totally feel that the only people that want yes on 8 are scared of something different. It is all the old fashioned people that are too stubborn to realize that saying yes on prop 8 is discrimination. What people don't realize is that gay marriage is already legal.. so all this bull crap about it being taught in schools should be happening, but wait a minute, there have been no complaints.. weird..
people need to get over how they feel about homosexuals and do the right thing, stop hating.
