Wherein I point out that Jesus preached love



Written: 10/27/2012

The Family Research Council has come out and said that church attendance is declining because they don’t hate gay people enough.

I’ll let that sink in for just a moment.

This coming from the far right, one of their denizens who tweeted this:

It blows my mind that people don’t see the connection between the constant tearing down and bullying of LGBT (or those assumed to be) youth and the high suicide rate.

And yes, it’s even the small things like calling people or things “gay.”  I tend to take it all in and personalize and internalize everything, and holding that pain inside has done bad things to me, but let’s for once, actually think of the children and remember that we’re commanded to love unconditionally.

All my best,

The King of Spades
