Tolerance

Lately I have really had to come to grips that society has low tolerance for those who are different than themselves. It shocks me that people are still so close minded to those who are different then themselves. Especially when the people who seem to be the most close minded and judgmental are those are claim to be doing so, due to what a book tells them. A book that was written by man, and which has changed over time. A book that supposedly the old part was over written by the new part. Though those same people say well that one part still applies. Ahh I see, so as a person you can choose which parts you believe in. So why not believe in letting others live THEIR life the way THEY want to live it, if it does not bother you. It is not like them being gay is really bothering you, so why do you care so much?  I have been quiet for so long, as your belief is yours. Lately I am just so disgusted with people not being tolerant of others. I do not bother you about your beliefs, so why do you want to bother me? Why is my best friends sexual preference worthy of you poking your nose in?  Why not let GOD judge, and you just be nice and tolerant? Why does gay marriage effect you?

Same goes with Racism, why can we all just not get along? Why do people have to judge on the color of someones skin or bring up things that happened GENERATIONS AGO. I did not enslave anyone and quite frankly I do not believe anyone in my family did. Most people needed to be WEALTHY to own slaves, and if you did some reading, most of the north had slaves WAYYY past the Confederate war, so why not take down the American flag too?    I get that the Confederate flag represents so not so nice things. I understand some feel it is their heritage. However you cannot erase the past, if you do, the past WILL repeat itself. Do I think it needs to be removed from everything in history or that we need to dig up dead people? No, you people who think that are nuts.. and need a life!

Now if you are one of the sheep who only listens to the media and thinks what they want you to think, get out there open a flipping history book or research it on your own, learn and make YOUR OWN opinions. This doing what the flock does is STUPID and makes you STUPID.  The media gets off on getting you stirred up, and causing friction, it makes them MONEY. So stop.. just stop!

Be kind, be nice, mind your own business, do research before you speak, know that EVERYONE has walked a path that is unknown to you, you cannot generalize, and you shouldn't. You should be kind, turn the other cheek, and love.. love others for themselves. Love them in spite of themselves. Love and kindness would make this world a better place.. try practicing it, instead of hate!

Off soap box now!
