Reply #40: Excuse me. [View All]

The people you describe ATTACK people like me. They go after my rights, they intervene in political affairs to make my life difficult.

They persecute people like me and then claim it's done out of "love." No one needs to caricature them--they are caricatures of themselves. And it sounds like you agree with them.

You don't tell another human being to be something they are not, to bury their own human nature, to suffocate and hide and be miserable, because you love them. You don't tell them that part of their core identity is disgusting, evil and needs to be "cured" because you love them. You don't tell them that their most personal and private feelings are lie, that they are not who and what they say they are, because you love them. Putting dogma and "major teachings" above compassion and acceptance of other human beings who are different is not love. It is hatred. No matter how many songs you sing and poetic verses you recite to make you feel good about the backwards, archaic and hurtful belief system underlying it.

Bigotry isn't love simply because you put a smile on its face.

Sell that someplace else.
