One Step Forward, Ten Yard Penalty

Every. Single. Time.

Every single time I hear good news, I'm hit with worse news. If people in America want to know why we progress at a snail's pace, it's because there are officials in office who are snails.

A couple days ago I heard from a friend of mine that the Presbyterian Church has finally accepted gay marriage. Woo! Seriously, that's great! But when I was told of this, I responded with some skepticism.

Though it's great that the Presbyterian Church has accepted homosexual marriage, it took forever. It took similarly as long for a Catholic Pope to finally go, "Yeah, gay marriage is cool, whatever." To the point of LGBT activists everywhere, it's called marriage. Not gay marriage. It's just marriage.

That said, no religion represents the United States or even individual states (though I'm sure there are conservative Republicans out there who would say otherwise, and I'd argue that if that is the case it shouldn't be because, ya know, separation of Church and State and all that shit that everyone keeps ignoring. But, ya know, don't give me a background check for the guns I purchase. Sorry, slight digression...). So, why, then does it seem like Religion(Church..whatever) and State GO HAND-IN-HAND!?

Listen, Christians, I get it. You out there who want to pick certain things out of your religious text in order to berate other human beings around you for no reason other than to assert whatever dominance you think you have on them. Really, I get it. You're assholes. It's cool. There are tons of people like you out there. I'm used to it!

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, the Lord of all Assholes hailing from Indiana decides, "Hey, ya know what would be really great? Let's make a law where everyone can make pretend that homosexuals aren't people. Yeah! Let's go backwards by 100 years and treat people who are different than me like animals!"

First off, look at me *does the index-middle finger to the eyes back to that disgusting human being* Fuck. You.

Either you were elected by a kajillion heathens--which I will not withdraw as a possibility--OR you DISGUISED yourselves as non-heathens, beautiful people whom in reality are the fullest of the shits. All of the shits.

If you are someone from Indiana who is not trying to stop this legislation that will actively discriminate against the LGBTQ, etc. community, you should be embarrassed! You should be embarrassed of that governing POSs over there that are signing this act of  clear oppression on a group of people who only deserve to be treated like people.*

I'm livid. I'm sad. I'm sorry to the LGBTQ, etc. community over there and around the country who this is hurting the most. 

These acts of hatred have got to end right now!

Flabergasted and disgusted.
