"Human rights. I'm down for those. Love is love."

So in light of recent events I am going to semi break my "stay away from politics and religion" rule because I am disheartened, nay, sickened by the things I have been seeing/hearing. First and foremost, there is a very well defined line called "separation of church and state" that being said 1) feel free to have your personal opinions...yes personal. You are not God therefore don't attempt to speak for him/her/them and what he/she/they deem "right". Have you forgotten the Bible was written by men....or is that a fact you are simply trying to ignore? Or maybe you're one of those people who live by only what you choose to? Condemn gays but have premarital sex and cuss like a sailor? Ringing any bells? 2) Religion does not trump human rights. Our freedom is our birth right religion is optional. Moving on, because it's not even the religious aspect that's gotten me irritated. What really has my blood boiling is all the people in interracial relationships getting on to people about who they can and cannot marry....SERIOUSLY! You are telling me that you are going to back the same people who less than 50 years ago said your relationship was against Gods will and unnatural. For African Americans, it was said you could not marry outside your race because you were considered live stock and of course, bestiality, huge biblical no-no. You are doing nothing but erasing history and taking a big fat crap on everything those people stood for, died for. You are absolutely no better of a person  now than those people were then. If you dont agree with it, so be it but dont let your opinion dictate someone elses life. Mad truth.

FYI: Interracial marriage was considered unconstitutional until 1967, Loving v. Virginia.
