Homosexuality is becoming more and more open each day… and that’s an awesome thing, but there are so many people that don’t accept it. Every one of them, having their bogus reasons… and the one I hear the most is the Christians saying how god says it’s a sin. From what I know about god, he was supposed to create every man and woman equal, well I think that if we’re all equal, then we all should be treated equally, which, in reality I know will never happen. But the thing that most people don’t realize, or the realize it but don’t really BELIEVE it, is that YOU can make a difference. If a kid that you sit by is getting made fun of, stand up for him or her, you never know but you saved their life. People’s feelings get hurt real easy, especially if you get made fun of each and every day, and it keeps ripping and tearing at you, that you eventually break. Homosexuality is not an easy thing to live with, lots of people shun you just because you like another male or if your female, like another girl. The world is NOT equal, but if we work on it, we can make it a better place to be. I’m 13, and I know now what many people won’t realize until they’re an adult, and even then, some won’t realize it. It’s sitting right in front of your face, people… open your eyes and see it, touch it take it into consideration. Yes, wisdom comes with age, but maturity, is a whole different story, I know many 5 year olds that are already more mature the tons of people that go to my school. Close-mindedness and ignorance is becoming a major problem in society today, more than it ever has before, each and every day- getting worse and worse. As for gay and lesbian marriages; IT NEEDS TO BE LEGALIZED. God forbid, if you honestly fell in love with a person, and thought it was important to get married (yes, I’m talking male and female) and the FUCKING government tells you that you can’t because they said so, WHAT WOULD YOU DO? WHAT WOULD YOU FEEL? WOULD YOU DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT? It’s the same story here, folks, two people falling in love, feeling the need to get married, or the want, whatever it is, so be it. NOBODY, absolutely NOBODY should have the right to tell somebody that they can’t get married to a person because of something like gender, race, religion. I’m truly sorry if I offend anybody here, but, Christianity and Catholicism is SO MUCH BULLSHIT. HOW come it’s a sin to be a homosexual, because some man wrote it on a paper and sent it to sea in a glass bottle? I’m sorry, I really shouldn’t be covering this topic because I personally know nothing about religion, but come on, it’s common sense… NO Christian I talk to can tell me where god came from, I thought everything had to have a beginning…? I do believe in a higher-power, but not god. Nothingness (outer space) was created into something, maybe a gas, or a liquid even, the friction causing it to form another and another, call causing a lump of what we call earth, spinning, spinning, that nothingness, that was created into SOMETHING, using that something to create another thing and another and another… I believe that we MAY be what we call an "extra-terrestrials", perhaps one of MANY! Giving us nothing but life, having to create something out of nothing. For all we know, we could be germs living in a bio-tube, creating our own world, atmosphere, life. There may be no god, Jesus, virgin marry, or any other higher power, in the religious sense. But, we could also be like ants in an antfarm, the ozone layer being the top layer of sand deteroriating more and more each and every FUCKING day

I sit back and watch all of the kids at my school, and, it’s amazing how so many of them are SO immature, especially for being in 8^th grade, with LESS than HALF of a year left. Why do people make the decisions that they do even if they know it’s going to fuck their lives up at least temporarily, and maybe even for the rest of their life? The things people do, and say is amazing. You see girls walking around the halls with their pants too tight and shirt too small with their mid-drifts hanging out, HELLO PEOPLE, you’re only 13/14, you don’t need to be doing that, you’ve got your whole life ahead of you… don’t try to act so mature in that field when you act so immaturely in all of the others. What do you want to be when you get older? Money doesn’t grow on trees, you know. People have to work damn hard for what they have. There is no reason that you shouldn’t too, your just like everybody else, no matter how different you think that you are.
