The bible says...

…that being gay is wrong. It’s an abomination. It’s an act of evil against god. Gay people will burn in hell for eternity for their heresy.

What a crock.

Yet, people actually believe this. The bible is the reason that gay marriage is outlawed in all but 5 states. Religious zealots use the book as a weapon, as a way of attacking without feeling guilty. They are doing the work of god…not victimizing those who are different.

Those of us who have opened our eyes and turned away from the bigotry that religion has become realize that these zealots are the least Christ-like of all people.

Bigoted zealots are using religion for evil. For them, religion is a vice…not a virtue.


Take, for example, Carl Paladino. He’s the Republican opponent in New York’s gubernatorial race. His recent attacks on gays have been fueled by his ridiculous views of religion. They lead to acts like this, or this, or - worst of all - this.

“We shouldn’t brainwash teens into being gay,” says Paladino even though he’s perfectly content in brainwashing them to be hateful, god-fearing bullies. Religion says he, atrocity says I. Step away from god, and no man can make claims like Paladino has, they will begin to feel only guilt, not religion.

Thank god, so to speak this man is losing heavily in the polls. And even though he is an obvious hate-monger and close-minded bigot, he promotes himself as the “religious values candidate.”

If those are religious values, I’m happy in my heresy.

I won’t add religion to my growing list of vices.


The election is next week. If you live in New York, please don't vote for this monster, and do your best to dissuade all others from it as well.
