Recently in Alabama, the 10 commandments were removed from a courthouse because of a ruling based on the supposed Seperation of Church and State.
Earlier this year, a monument was erected on federal property in Sacramento California to honor the achievements of Gay, Lesbian and Transgender (i wasnt aware that we hade these) service members who have served in the military.
Now, these two monuments might seem unrelated at first glance, but i beleive they're nothing more than the physical representation of different lifestyles that occur in our population. Now bear in mind there is no monument specifically honoring straight service members either.
So what's up? Is our government not supposed to be upholding the values we as a society hold? Because Im willing to bet that a larger portion of the country believes in god, than participates in cross dressing or homosexual relations. We cant really discount the fact that our legal system is pretty much based on the ten commandments either right?
Is this some kind of joke?
Why does CNN keep showing the raving church lunatic screaming about jesus instead of people who actually have something important to say?
Is it just that a very vocal minority is making things happen, while the majority just sits back and doesnt care? Why does the larger voice always get the back seat? Do we just love the under dog or what?
As ive said a hundred times, Im not a religious person, but i just see all of this as wrong. Why are you better represented if you're gay rather than christian? What the hell does being gay have to do with serving in the military? We wouldnt allow a site honoring christian service members on federal property would we?
Am i making any sense?
