I’m going to use my baby soapbox to make this one point. 

There isn’t enough room in this world for all of the HATE that’s currently circulating.

God says “love thy neighbor.” He doesn’t say love thy neighbor, but only if he’s white or straight or Christian or votes the same way you do. It’s a blanket of love he is asking for. 

Hating people because of the color of their skin, the way they love, the way they pray, or the way they vote is like hating natural redheads for the color of their hair. They don’t have anymore control over the color of their hair than a member of the LGBTQ community does the people they’re attracted to. Sure you can dye your hair, but eventually your roots will show and you’ll tire of hiding who you were born to be. The person God made you to be.

We have the right to disagree with a persons religious belief, political view or life style. We don’t have the right to judge, harm (both physically and mentally), or bully someone because they’re different from us. Not everyone is a square peg, some of of are round and some of us are triangles. We aren’t all going to fit into the same metaphorical square hole.

So let’s all make an effort to stop all of this hate & bulling and bigotry. Make an effort to be a part of the solution and not the problem. If you see someone being bullied online, stand up for them, even if that means standing up for a Democrat or a Republican. If you see someone being pushed around and harassed because they’re different, stand up for them. And for the love of God, stop calling people hateful names.

Stand up for the human race, regardless of our differences, because it’s our differences that make us so amazing and beautiful. It would be a very dull world if we lived in a monochromatic society.
