| | Prop 8 in California, as well as amendments in two other states, recently banned gay marriage. Hundreds, if not thousands of gay couples who were married are now unsure if their marriage still exists. Does anyone else find this ironic?
The Christian Right, in all their self-centered hubris, have been declaring for years that gay marriage would "destroy marriages" -- that it would somehow affect straight marriages by weakening the term. (I mean, more than Britney's 24-hr marriage and the 50% divorce rate already do...)
I can't find one example of a straight marriage that has dissolved due to gay marriage, but I can now find several hundred gay marriages that have dissolved due to the recent ban. Ironic.
I wonder if atheists like myself should also be banned from marriage, because if there's anything God hates more than gays and shellfish, it's an atheist.
So fuck everyone who voted yes to social inequality and "separate but equal." If you don't want a gay marriage, then don't have one, but stop imposing your opinions on others, and citing your silly skydaddy as the reason for your utter lack of empathy to those who are different from you. Your moral high ground, just like your god, is false.
