right to live YOUR life
I know that the basis for my beliefs is that all people have a right to live their life, believe what they want, and be whatever they want to be. Meaning: If somebody is gay, I am not offended, I do not feel they owe an explanation to myself or the rest of society, nor do I think that a homosexual deserves to be ostracisized from society for their sexual preference. I do not believe gay people are sexual deviants, I do not feel that gay people have a choice in what their sexual preference is. If someone is gay they are gay and there is no hiding it. Even if a man is married for 20 years and has children and maybe even grandchildren and he is truly gay it will come out. He will not live his entire life in the lie of being married to a woman. Denying one their right to their sexual preference is like denying their right to breath. Another example: I am fascinated by people whom make no excuses for their life, their beliefs, regardless of what others may say or do to them. The person who can be totally open about what is in their mind is the person who can understand themselves and the world around them better. Fear comes from that which we do not know. Fear of the unknown is the driving force behind many issues in America today. Religion in America has a tinge of fear to it because if one is not religious it is almost impossible to get someone who is to believe that you are a rational person. So fear is created for people who are not adherent to God and christianity of any kind. There is fear on the end of the religious toward the non-religious and vise-versa. Back to the concept of being what you are. Isn't it a lie if one does not live to what they feel inside they are as a person? Isn't it a blatant lie to ones self if they do not adhere to their own indoctrinations about life and the world around them. All this is coming from my crazy mind of course as some may say but really my point is directed toward those who judge others, those who do not keep an open mind, those who view people who are different from them as bad. My obsession lately has been: Why do human beings hold judgement for those who are what they are: gay, handicapped, disabled, psycholgically or physically impaired in anyway, all people, all categories and types??? Why is there a fear in this country to accept. Not reject. I am sure people could refute me and say that this there is no problem and I am negative and overreacting yet think about this, why don't we focus on fixing problems instead of worrying about if a woman does with her body what she pleases. Issues in the government have been stalemated because of this issues alone. Abortion. I can see the points of prolife supporters, the positive points are many, yet our bodies are like our opinions, they are what they are and they are there for us to do with them as we wish. I don't even know who I am writing too but I know that I have to get this out. Logic in my mind is scarce right now when it comes to my opiniosn regarding sorting them and finding hat to use to present to the world.
