This one's about gay marriage.
THE PROMPT: "Gay marriage? Yes? No? Do you care? Why?"


Holy commotion y'all...I can almost smell it comin'. What is up? For reals? We're still talking about this in 2013? Tell ya what...come at me when we're talking about electing a gay president, bro. Seriously. I'm about as bored talking about this as I am talking about my own miserable life these days.

The truth is, live and let live. I don't care what your religion says. Your religion doesn't matter to me. Too many religions have too many holes in them for me to firmly stand behind them anyway. But what can I stand behind? Love. If two dudes love each other, or two chicks love each other, then good. Better than good...great. And if they wanna be parents and raise kids, even better...because that kid will likely be the most tolerable kid in the world and have two parents that love that kid a lot. Hell, how many kids have parents that don't love them at all?

I know plenty of gay people in this world, and they're no different than you or me. I don't have "gay friends"...and I've said this a million times before...I don't have "black friends" or "lady friends" or "ugly friends" or "Jewish friends" or "Wal-mart friends". I have friends. Period like the end of a sentence. If you're my friend for pretty much any reason, you're my friend. I don't judge. I don't classify or categorize. Life's too short for that kind of bullshit.

And if one-eighth of the world loved each other the way most gay people love one another, I fully believe this world would be an absolutely more tolerable planet. Imagine everybody getting along a lot better than they do now. I'm not saying it'd be perfect (there will always be room for improvement), but I think you know what I'm saying.

I really wish I had more to say about this, because I think this is important. It's not about religion or sex or power or wealth or anything else. It's about love, and maybe I haven't learned everything there is to learn in every kind of bible in the world, but I'm pretty damn sure most of them preach love first (before they get into who you're supposed to and not supposed to love). It should be such a non-issue; way more a non-issue than a lot of other supposed non-issues. I also know love isn't something to fuck with. If you wanna do anything to screw up your karma, go on and fuck around with love. Trust me...unless you want to spend the rest of your life bored, lonely and watching reruns of Friends on dvd while eating Chef Boyardee straight from the can, don't fuck with love. Whether it's a guy and a girl, two guys or two girls, don't do it. Like I said near the top, live and let live. Love is for everyone, regardless of anything else.

MUSICAL BREAK!!

If ever there is another question about this subject, look no further.



VITAL STATS:

*Pthb* Next week, can we get an opinion prompt with a little kick to it? Can't wait to see what everyone else has to say about this.

Anyway, I'm gonna get goin' now that I'm all caught up again (seems like a prevailing theme this month). Peace, and GOODNIGHT NOW!!
