I"m so disgusted I can't think. As already commented by skylark, these people are christians, and my understanding was always that real christians don't do petty, vile, rephrehensible things like that f'ing statue.

Date: 2004-01-23 11:33 pm (UTC)Yeah, I stumbled upon this site by my "Christian" brothers and sisters the other night and fell into a fairly deep depression over the state of the world.
I was rescued by my personification of God from Dinner Dates coming up with lots of nastly little bit to add to the story in order to further piss off the my "Christian" neighbors. =P Thanks to all of this current news, the story has been bymped up considerably on the "to-do" list.

It doesn't affect you in your day to day life. My motto has always been "to each his own," and I've done all right by it so far (except maybe when I get angry about things like this and declare they're all fucking morons, in which case I probably should calm down).
I really can't wait to see that story, I've been insanely curious ever since you first mentioned it.

Not the impression I wish to give; my mom is against gay marriages while I'm for them and we still get along fine. I know plenty of people around here that don't agree with gay anything, but they're definitely not evil. It's just the statue-erecting ones that make me so mad. Growing up around those types turned me off religion completely.
