The whole red state v blue state is a recent construct from the media and the political elite to keep us divided. In fact, the entire idea of a culture war was borne of the divide and conquer idea. As long as m,embers of one of the main parties can point to the other and say "If you elect them there will be terrorists conducing gay marriages on every street corner." they have done their job. In fact, in Al Frankin's book The Truth (with Jokes) he points to the genesis of the whole gay marriage becoming a federal issue.
Frankly, many Americans have had their religion hijacked as the mega churches have morphed into right ring agenda cloning machines. Operation:Mindcrime is not against anyone's choice of faith, but O:MC is against anyone who is using their faith to further a political agenda. This site is a good beginning to counter the right wing extremism that is washing over this country from supposed Christians.
The whole thing is a crock of crap. Most Americans who have not been brainwashed by the Talibanesque efforts of the right wing political Christian movement realize that the government should stay out of our bedrooms. Its really that simple. I also defy any opponent of gay marriage to post in the comment section how two men down the street from you being married hurts YOUR marriage. I don't want anything vague from scripture. Answer the question: how does it hurt YOUR marriage? I'll even accept an answer to how does it affect you? Show me that I am wrong and you are more than a brainwashed automaton.
Stop and think people, all of these so called issues are to distract you from the reality that the government is screwing you to aid the wealthy. They want you to focus on all these other things rather than the truth. They are afraid that people will truly come together to force them to face their corporate masters, so they distract us by division.
