THE NATURE OF RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY

Seems to me that the anti-gay marriage crowd are trying to rob others of their rights as human beings. Of course, this is from a site espousing tolerance...
Fuck the rights of others. If I find you weird, you should stay the fuck out of my face and STFU.

How's that for "tolerance?"

Funny how everybody is howling about having their "rights" recognized - except when they're talking about the rights of unborn children.

What's the matter? Are there universal rights or not? Everyone claims, on the one hand, they have the "right" to marry whomever they wish and it must be recognized by everyone else. They claim this "right" even though (until recently) there was no law establishing gay marriage. They just say that they have this "right". Well, where does that right come from? Why should I believe you when you say that you have that right?

However, on the other hand, they say that there is no right to life for the unborn. ....

Just wondering how they know the one right exists and not the other.

Not "everyone else" - just the government.

Well, actually, there is...which is why this rush to amend the constitution to STOP the right from being utilized.

However, on the other hand, they say that there is no right to life for the unborn. ....
