My Story

hmmm... thats very interesting. I dont believe in the cure for homosexuality and all that bull shit. They arent doing any harm IMO. As for the marriage part, I dont believe in it. Its not a Christian thing bc I dont claim to be one. It is bc "marriage" is a religious institution ( which no major religion in the world says its ok), while on the other hand we have Civil Unions. I think its fucked up how someone can say they can cure homosexuality. If they are attracted to the same sex then let it be. As for gays being well known to rape and molest people, yeah they do it. So?! So do heterosexuals on even a larger scale.

Religion is doing enough harm as it is without convincing lawmakers in other countries to pass laws structuring their view of morality and KILLING or locking in a cage those that do not abide by them.

If I was not protected by our constitution and the First Amendment of freedom of speech in this country, I could be arrested for my words and the publication there of.

It is internationally recognized as a human right under Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and recognized in international human rights law in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). The ICCPR recognizes the right to freedom of speech as "the right to hold opinions without interference. Everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression"

But it's limitations lie in it's definitions of "hate speech". And THAT is just another example where religion has found it's way of neutering my freedom and rearing it's ugly head, and its consideration of "blasphemy" falling under it's terms. The fact their are even blasphemy laws to protect people from hearing words that might crowbar their minds out of the stone age is a perfect illustration of the cowardly immaturity of the religious mind and the emptiness of religion itself. So you see what I want here...freedom and LOTS of it, religion does everything it can to make you unable to attain it.
