Two Quotes
The quotes in my two previous posts are not only two of my favorite quotes, but oddly enough they are very connected. I’m pretty confident that the Oscar Wilde quote is driven from his life as a homosexual. Whenever people begin to talk about gay marriage, and whether they support it or not, I usually think I’m not against because it doesn’t really affect me. Plus, when looking at the reasons to be against it, like the sanctity of marriage and what not, I can’t help but thinking how ridiculous of an argument it is. Obviously just because you’re straight does not mean that you will keep the sanctity of marriage. Given the divorce rate and the oh so many other unholy things that happen in marriages around the country, why not allow gay marriage?
The second quote blew my mind the first time I read it. Specifically, the final sentence. Just imagine if everyone was exactly like you and had the same religious beliefs or views on life. I would never have an interesting conversation again. Yet, many Conservatives want people to share their beliefs. Anyone who lives life differently and unlike how they believe it should be lived they look down on and are prejudice towards. What’s wrong with other people living life their way?
