Fueling My Fire

Ladies and gentlemen I offer you yet another article from MSNBC.com that incites the blogging rage inside of me…

High court rules for anti-gay funeral protestors

I will try not to go into a generalized anti-church rant here but it may be difficult. The basis of these absolute psychos arguments, however, are rooted in what is taught by the church and that’s the anti-gay sentiment.

I do recognize that not every Christian may agree with this anti-gay philosophy.

That being said – these psychos who would have the nerve to picket a soldier’s funeral as a result of this and trespass on the privacy of such an event deserve to find themselves amongst their very own funeral. Separate from the anti-gay sentiment – where do you find the nerve to picket someone’s funeral and disrespect a family, let alone a soldier, like that?

Its hard for me to even write about this because I sit here writing and all I can think of is, “How do people like this even exist? How do they go to bed at night believing what they do?” In this case the following quote rings true..

Mario Puzo wrote, “It is dangerous to be reasonable with a stupid person.”

In these people’s warped and highly-disturbed minds they think that holding signs like, “Thank God for dead soldiers”, “You’re Going to Hell” and “God Hates the USA/Thank God for 9/11” and picketing a marine’s funeral are acceptable ways of livng.

They think this simply because they believe that a soldier’s death is a punishment handed down from their mythological god. These lunatics apparently think these soldier’s die because they are fighting for a nation that tolerates homosexuality. I guess they don’t die because they were sent off to fight a war? The basis of their argument isn’t anti-war though. It’s anti-gay and that’s where the ultimate problem lies...

Just the word “tolerates” is ridiculous. The only reason I used that word is because it is written that way in the MSNBC article itself. Most importantly, whether or not you choose to believe in a mythological figure, people have the right to be homosexual, bisexual, green, black or purple. And, btw, – they should be able to get married and have kids and raise a family and do whatever it is you “normal” people do and shouldn’t need legislation to “allow” it.

This religiously-backed societal-outrage over homosexuality and gay rights is absolutely embarrassing. If you don’t like it than don’t be gay. How’s that? Otherwise take your signs and your bibles and stay home.

You may not believe it but I do understand someone’s desire to believe in a god and follow a church. I do. I may not believe myself but it doesn’t mean I don’t respect where you may be coming from. It’s when it’s taken to a different level that infuriates me. Its when people take their religious beliefs and throw it in the face of others simply because they think they are all-knowing and their law rings true.

This just in. Common sense, logic and respect are what ring true.

If you do believe in god do you really think he’ll give you a high-five for picketing a dead soldier’s funeral when you supposedly run into him at the “pearly gates”?

These particular delusional lunatics probably do and that's pretty sad.
