I am so fucking sick and tired of people (mostly of the Religious persuasion) picking and choosing what/who they're going to judge and what/who they're going to accept, and which Biblical laws they should follow, and which to discard.
Oh, and which ones to make up.

The following judgements will be made to you courtesy of my religious upbringing (and, for the most part, real-life experience with people inside the Baptist Church of which I was a member), and are, apparently, just fine in the eyes of the deity and all Christians:
- Seduce a youth pastor and ruin his marriage.
- Have a kid without getting married, move in with baby daddy, have another kid.
- Be a raging judgemental Planned-Parenthood bombing type of Christian. (the bombing part is an exaggeration... or is it?)
- Be a Republican Presidential candidate who's against all things gay, but have Grindr on your phone.
- Wish death and destruction on other countries/cultures/peoples/gays.
- Actually bomb Planned Parenthoods.
- Damn and judge people openly on street corners downtown.
- Maybe become a priest and have sex with young boys.
- Own companies, and use the profit to support Anti-gay (and anti-everything good) organizations, pose as a teenage girl on facebook to shame people posting on their wall, lie a lot....
- Cry out that you're oppressed, when in all actuality, you're oppressing everyone else.
BUT SOMEHOW BEING GAY IS WORSE THAN ALL THE STUPID SHIT THAT CHRISTIANS DO THEMSELVES.
And let's be honest, that's just the tip of the iceberg of shit that Christians/religious folk do to one another, and every one else.

I just.... what?
I am sick and fucking tired of Christians telling me where I'm going when I die, or how to live my life, or judging me when, according to their own religious text - no one can do that except God.
UGH. My own Mother commented a friend's status and mentioned that every time someone says anything against the LGBT community, we freak out and get up in arms, and there's no reasoning with us.
.....which, I commented on the same thing, and got up in arms but it was because the article the person posted about the Chick-Fil-A debacle was completely ridiculous and unfounded. It wasn't even an article - it was BLOG POST. Sorry I'm not sorry that I don't base my opinions and beliefs on BLOG POSTS. I read facts. I read MULTIPLE sources. DO YOUR RESEARCH before your post something stupid on your facebook wall and talk about it like it's Scripture.

So just back the fuck off, you crazy Christian weirdos.
Because YOUR God was the one who made me gay.
I didn't choose to have my heart go pitter-patter and nearly burst out of my chest with I met Girlfriend.
Because that's what happened.
And that's what happens every single day.
Who could hate that? I just don't get it.
It's whatever EVERYONE wishes, and hopes, and dreams for.
I didn't choose this. I didn't choose to have my Mom hate me, or my Dad make transphobic "as long as you don't want to BE a boy" comments after I say I want to cut my hair really short...
I didn't choose to have people stare at me when I shop at walmart, holding my girlfriend's hand.
I didn't choose to have people judge me, or have the option to fire me for being gay, or kick me out of where I'm living because I'm gay.
I didn't choose to be nervous going to eat at places like Lambert's. (What if people stare? What if we get kicked out? What if people are mean to us/spit in our food/give us poor service?)
I've been very lucky. I have an extremely amazing support system. I have a job, a college degree, an incredible relationship, ways to support myself....
But a lot of kids don't have that.
They get kicked out of their house (like Girlfriend), disowned....
There are hate crimes...
Like this one
And this one
And this one
And this one
And this
And this
And this.
This.
This.
And of course things like Same Sex Couple Denied Wedding Cake By Bakery, and the couple who were denied a wedding announcement in their local paper (by, hey-o... joke's on you, newspaper, since their upcoming nuptials now have international attention!)...
And of course, the creation of such LGBT self-defense groups like Pink Pistols.
No one would choose this.
Don't get me wrong. I've never been so happy (gay, if you will ;D ). I am the happiest and healthiest I've ever been (Girlfriend and I are working out and eating right!).
But sometimes it's hard.
Sometimes you just want to move to Canada... okay, actually, a lot of the time I want to move to Canada, but Girlfriend says we don't have enough money to do that right now.
All I'm saying is that it's exhausting to be constantly surrounded by religious bigots who throw around Scripture like everyone believes it and should follow it.
Or, they make things up like "Jesus hates gays."
Once again, Religious people... do your research. Jesus didn't say anything about teh gayz.
If we're all human, we should all have the same rights.
We should know by now that we can't judge anyone, and from our own judgments base how we treat other humans.
It's unfair.
Always practice empathy.
And now I'd like to list today's gay agenda (mostly I just wanted to use that photo....)

Yell at the cat for being annoying, then feed him.
Put a load of laundry in the washing machine.
Throw out beer bottles.
Sit on my couch with the blinds closed and cruise around Tumblr.
Make some coffee, maybe add some milk and sugar.
Drink said coffee.
Watch 45 seconds of Michael Phelps swimming 200m butterfly.
Call into work today so I can hang out with Ellie and Matt, who are coming in town for 1 night.
Probably take a shower if I can tear myself away from Tumblr.
Kiss and hug my girlfriend when she gets home from work.
Go eat at Lambert's.
Die because I'm too full.
okay, bye!
