I get so angry. I get so upset and tense and frustrated when people use God as a scapegoat to their own ignorance, when people are so shallow and judgemental and hypocritical that they’d rather make misinformed assertions than open their mind to a changing world, an evolving world, a broadening world.
Prop 8 went through the 9th Circuit today. The courts held the decision that the Prop is unconstitutional and I am incredibly proud of this state. However, every time a decision like this is made, the internet explodes.
People are turning left and right to exert their own views. They’re making claims against people and for people, projecting their own beliefs and morals and ideals into the community so that everyone around them can hear just what they have to say.
And I’m not any better sometimes. There are moments when I want everyone to listen and agree with me, because I honestly, whole-heartedly believe that what I have to say is worth it. And I get it, people are passionate.
I just wish there was more sensitivity in people, because it makes me sick. It makes me physically sick how people can so readily disregard others, how they can project themselves above the importance of other human life, a life that deserves respect, and equality, and honor, life that began on this earth with the same structure and foundations of so many others.
And we need to remember that. We are life, and human, and equal. We are equal and we are none to judge.
