a note to the politically inactive fundamentalist christians (Free verse) by i_am_the_popsicle
even if you think that homosexuality is a sin even if you think that aborting a fetus is a sin i still say that you are making a big fuss over what is relatively nothing, you that potential people are dying, and that children could be raised in houses of sin and that the sanctity of marriage could be ruined but none of this is new, think of the people starving in africa, think of the people that are brutally murdered every year in our own country think of them when you talk about murder think of the children who are being raised by drug dealers, and think of the children that are raped and abused by their parent think of them when you talk about bad environments think of men walking out on their girlfriends think of the men who are beating the women thik of the men who walk out on the wives when you talk about the sanctity of marriage and if you still think that abortion and homosexuality are the most compelling problems then good for you at least you have thought about it but it makes me literally sick to hear the heated debates in your kitchen when all that you have ever done is vote and that doesn't do as much as we'd like to beleive i would like for you to do something constructive to try to fight the problems that torture your soul but you wont and i understand that is not the way that our culture does things i would like for you to see the tragedies first hand, rather than through your sattellite digital tv set, but you wont and i understand that that is not the way that our culture does things i would like for your soul to be tortured by things other than the pta meetings i would like for us all to be humanitarians but i know this would never work because who could we then elect to office? but, tell me, is it really to much, to ask you to at least complain of problems that matter just a bit more, then if two gay men are given a sheet of paper with the word marriage on it
