Most important thing? Let's STOP people from loving each other

So, feel like stepping into a mind field here...

Hey... I... Well, there are just so many things to say about that upcoming election that nothing gets said. There are so many interesting threads to pull. But.. one thing.

This Petition 8 story. There's this political thing in California going on trying to stop gay people from marrying each other and to regulate that these things doesn't get taught in school and stuff.

Christian people has been a huge part of raising more than 25 million dollars to make sure that this petition gets through. So. Ok. Let me think. People in my Christian family think it is worth 25 freaking m i l l i o n dollars to make sure other people live by their standard? I can't begin to figure in how many ways... oh, sorry, I'll try to stay a little politically correct here.

Number one: I am a straight person. I believe that God intended us to be man and woman and live together ever after. I also believe that this world is f***** up and that love is one of the few things that are truly still beautiful. So be it. The gay question is not even the matter here, so I'm gonna leave that out of it.
Number two: Why is it so important for some Christians to regulate other peoples life? Why would we want people who doesn't even believe that Jesus exists, to live by his word? Again, my last post long ago is addressing the same matter.
Number three: I guess one of the reasons Christians would wanna regulate other peoples life is because they believe that God knows what is best for us. Here's an idea: Let's introduce people to that God instead of telling them what they should and should not do first? Sounds smart? Thought so.
Number four: This God type kind of talks a lot about love. Actually, love comes kind of at the top of the list. So... How come some of us make it an main issue to make sure that people know that they are lost and doomed rather than loved and cherished?
Number five, and this is a big one: What the heck does it say to people about that love from God when his people can spend 25 million dollars to make sure that people do not get the same rights as others? Cause, let's face it. No matter what we think about homosexuality and again, that is not the question, is it really ok to say that some people should not have the same legal rights as others? Cause that is really what this is about, isn't it? Do you know what could have been done with 25 million dollars? Think about it for a sec. Is it money well spent? Is it wise? It it really the most important issue?

I feel a little urge tonight to say... I'm sorry guys. I'm sorry some of my family thinks it is worth money to make sure you feel left out. I'm sorry, and this is no excuse, but in some weird way I think this is some peoples way of... showing love and concern. It's just very... weird.

And family! How about we take that money and go save a... country somewhere? Let love be love and let God be the one to judge. All of us. I have this tiny feeling he'll be more merciful than most of us. And that I'll be one of the people most in need of that mercy.
