Sigh.
I had a huge debate in 3rd hour today with like 3-4 people. What about? Gays/Lesbians.
They knew nothing. Had no evidence of the things they said were true and no real experience with such people. They kept saying they chose to be that way...
Ugh. Ugh.
One kid seriously said.. flat out.. "Gays should be shot." Really? I will never understand such hatred! EVER! How could you ever want to end a life? How?
No one I know who is gay, chose to be. Why would they want to make their life harder than it has to be?
I offended so many people. I basically said that religion has ruined how people think. No free thinking.
These kids were saying, "The bible tells me it's wrong." So basically, their religion.. something that is supposed to be a good thing in their life and tell them to love thy neighbor... is causing such hatred. I just.. I just can't understand it. It breaks my heart to hear such hatred and ignorance. It breaks my heart that they honestly don't have the ability to think for themselves.
This is not meant to turn into some huge debate.. I'm sharing my day.
Once again, sigh.
