On the one hand, sure. On the other, fuck religion. I lean harder on fuck religion, but do what you want so long as it doesn't affect me. Emphasis on that last part.

Exactly. I think that's the part that needs to be shouted more.

Everyone, regardless of their beliefs, bigotry, racism, whatever.... just needs to butt the fuck out of everyone elses business.

Your right to swing your fist ends where someone else's nose begins.

I don't give a shit if a racist refuses to have black person over for dinner at their house or a homophobe refuses to attend a gay wedding of a friend's son or daughter. What they do in their own home is not my concern. Believe what you want. Make your own family miserable if you want to be that kind of asshole.

But the moment you step out of the door, you are part of a society. And in that society, whatever you personally believe means precisely jack shit. So mind..your..own...fucking...business. You have a right to your beliefs. But you do NOT have the right to use those beliefs to hinder someone elses.

Upset that some people are celebrating pride by having a parade? Okay...go home and bitch about it to your wife when you get home, I don't fucking care. But that's where your right ends. You have the right to not like it. But you don't have the right to force everyone else to change to accomodate what you don't like.

But then again, on the first hand, god wants you to wear a hat
