I agree with THIS.And in addition, for those who disagree and use crass behaviour and little reason, I quote from The Bible:*"Love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrong-doing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends . But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end...And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love" (1 Cor 13:1-13).See that? Thats the most important message I ever saw in that book: 'The Greatest of these is Love'. Not 'The greatest of these is Hetrosexual marriage, and we're gonna persecute anyone that stands in our way. Along the way we'll also take a swipe at race, colour, creed, gender, and when anyone dares to question, we'll just say it was in the name of our Lord'. I have no qualms with people following beliefs or texts that I don't but what really chokes my goat is when peoples use it as an excuse for predjudice and bigotry. It ain't big and it ain't clever, and it sure as hell ain't gonna get you through no pearly gates. I believe in Faith, I try to keep hope, and I know Love. But hope is difficult to keep when hateful behaviour like this continues to rear its ugly head.I have no qualm with discussions, or differing opinions, but i do object it when people are told to 'shut the fuck up' and 'suck it up' without any attempt to back up their requests. Disabling comments just shields you from the retribution you know is going to follow. Its behaviour like that which makes me unfriend people. All comments are open on this post, and I welcome anyone to take a pot shot at what i've said here and now. Blatant insults and comments not applying to this post will be deleted.(* Despite not being Christian or following the Bible, I did really well at Religious Studies. Mostly because I could spot when people were manipulating texts to pimp their own personal beliefs. Its what drove me away from that avenue of faith. I have no problem with The Bible or anyone that follows it, as long as they don't A)Abuse it or B)Set Fire to me.)P.S. apologies to my regular viewers for this minor outburst, but some things just really rile me up. This is one of them
