Fair warning: Explicit language
throughout.
First of all, I do NOT under any
circumstances endorse the picture above. But I AM sick and fucking
tired of ignorant, misinformed bullshit such as this being passed
around social media as fact. Since when do Canadian kids not sing the
national anthem at school? My kids do every day! Sometimes even on
weekends! Besides, Oh! Canada is not a prayer! So you're comparing
apples and oranges anyway! If we want to make the world a better
place, this kind of bigoted misinformation needs to stop. Attitudes
need to change. TOLERANCE, ACCEPTANCE, LOVE and CO-OPERATION are the
keys to opening up a better society. Hate, ignorance, bigotry and
discrimination are the locks standing in the way.
STOP OPPRESSING RELIGIOUS FREEDOM
THROUGH HATE!!! THAT'S NOT WHAT CANADA IS ABOUT!!!
Branching also into the general hate on
Muslims that comes in the wake of events like Orlando...Do you ever
consider the heartbreak “regular” Muslims must feel when the
extremists (and those claiming to be extremists) commit these
atrocities? How would you feel if a bunch of wackos started killing
people in the name of your “God”? Started a Holy War against the
unbelievers? (Uh, the Crusades anyone?) “In the name of Jesus
Christ, DIE MOTHERFUCKERS!!!” and then all the “every day
Christians” get painted with same extremist brush? Wouldn't like
that, would you! That's not fair, is it?! Well...
What is you Christians say? “Love one
another as I have loved you.” There's no fine print, no qualifiers,
no exceptions to the rule. If you truly believe in this most basic of
Jesus' teachings and continue to spread hate and intolerance, you're
no better than the extremists. Don't hate. But if you're going to
hate someone, hate them because they're an ASSHOLE not because
they're different than you. That makes YOU the asshole. Don't be a
righteous fucking hypocrite sitting on your high horse. FYI,
according to Dante hypocrites end up in the 8th Circle of
Hell. There's only one worse. Hypocrites are doomed to suffer by
plodding around the circle eternally wearing heavy robes covered in
gold. A fitting punishment for the sin of appearing holy on the
outside but bearing the heavy weight of deceit on the inside. You're
weighing down the advancement of the human race, man!
Hey, if this offends you go ahead an
unfriend me, block me, delete me. I don't fucking care! It's fucking
Facebook or Twitter or whatever. I don't care. And I've got no time,
patience or place in my soul for shit like this. We're all made of
the same space dust. We all breathe the same air. We all bleed red.
We're all human beings. Know your facts. Stop spreading hate, lies
and motherfucking BULLSHIT.
“Turn the other cheek” doesn't
exactly work. Murderers need to be held accountable no matter what their motivations. But labelling
the many on the actions of the few and spreading hate and intolerance
is misguided, sad, and doesn't make you a better person. It does the opposite. The world is
vast and the people are different. If you don't like that, deal with
it. If you don't like me, deal with it. If you don't like what I have
to say, deal with it. You may be able to clear your conscience, but
you'll never cleanse your soul. Not with hate.
Rant done. Day ruined. Oh well. To
quote another Christian, “Onward and upward!”
