the six degrees to square one

i keep my hand out of politics, usually. i didnt vote and never vote because really, its all rigged anyways. until this recent election decisiontggvffffffffffffffffffffff



that was my cat stepping on my keyboard. hes too cute to delete his writing.


ANYWAYS, BEFORE I WAS SO RUDELY INTERRUPTED...

until this recent election decision, the country has essentially been in the hands of religious fundamentalists and free masons. basically, people who are out of touch with reality. granted, this country was forged on the basis of religion and god, but progressive thinking in the last few decades has come to realize the checks and balances system of "separation of church and state" to be a literal definition, and not just figurative. the irony in itself is that the whole rule of separation of church and state was made in a time where America was more of a theocracy based on the ten commandments. but, as America grew as a country, so did the weight of the constitution and disagreements. thus, amendments were formed to alter this primitive doctrine of living. nowadays, our country is based more upon its own constitution rather than the ten commandments, so doesnt it make sense for our train of thought to reflect that?

evidently not. as i said, i keep my hands out of politics, but the ratification of proposition 8 REALLY is a setback for california, the theory of mind over matter, and people in general. and what really makes me pretty angry is the lack of a logical argument from the side in favor of the proposition:

religion is not substantial. god is indefinitive. you cant validate an argument by falling back on something that may or may not exist. and does or does not have a definition. so when in an academic argument where substantiative evidence is furnished, extending God as a basis doesnt work for me. no sir.

logic and common sense seem lost in the political world. by adding the two words "gay" and "marriage" together, you are merely creating a compound word out of a prefix and a suffix. much the same as inter-racial "marriage". or "gay" relationship. the terms by themselves still hold an infinite number of word possibilities, so conjoining them only brings together infinitive connotations.

why focus on the deprivation of the sanctity of the word "marriage"? that statement alone denotes the inferiority of gays as to imply that the prefix "gay" in itself demeans the meaning of the WORD "marriage". its a word. nothing more. im married to my thoughts. is that demeaning? my thoughts are more deadly and virulent and sinister than anything a gay man has ever been. so why isnt the the term "im married to my thoughts" bad?

it all comes down to inherent morals. stuff that NOBODY can change. you cant force a right wing radical christian to spawn conscious thought if it conflicts with what they have BELIEVED since birth. thats why this whole prop. 8 thing will always be running in a circle.

CA supreme court ruled gay marriage legal
petition of 100,000 signatures sent to CA congress allows prop. 8 to be put on ballot.
prop 8. passes.
opposers of prop 8 protest alllll over the state. peitions are signed (including by me, the only role ive EVER had in politics)

whats next? ill tell you whats next... this whole controversy will keep stressing everybody out and making people mad til the next election. then what? the same cycle will repeat. because there will never be a compromise when you pit religious beliefs with common sense.


maybe it makes it to the US supreme court. then what? this whole thing will be nationwide. until the last of the religious fundamentalists dies off.


it makes me happy to see progressive thinking get SO close to prevalence, finally. ten years ago, it wouldnt have even made a wave in the media if somebody proposed legalizing gay marriage. thirty years ago, it would have been a fiery debate that would have ended in a radical riot and national guard troops. fifty years ago, people would have been beat.

just stop with the protests. and all the media noise. change will come eventually.


we're moving along. progressing. we dont need obama for change, we're doing it on our own. with minds.
