I'm thinking yeah.

You find out about the "being fired for being gay" thing today in Cotter's class? We did, well, my CE article was on Prop2 & that's what brought it up. Honestly, I'm not shocked. There are so many people like that in the world today who still say that being gay isn't something your born as.."it's a mental choice" (direct quote) which I find completely offensive. Then of course they started quoting the bible and yada yada. I just don't get why people think they can play God and try and but a definition on love. Love is a feeling beteween two people and no-where does it say "two people of opposite sexes". People like that just piss me off with their close-mindedness. And now MI's jumping on the bandwagon. It's just wrong.
