Stop picking on the Mormons

Okay. So I have to say what so many are thinking. Okay maybe just me - but it really bugs me. Why do people always pick on the Mormons? Seriously. Wednesday after Proposition 8 passes, they single out the Mormons from the other millions of voters who voted for it that came from dozens of other religions.

"ProtectMarriage.com, is a broad-based coalition of California families, community leaders, religious leaders, pro-family organizations and individuals from all walks of life who have joined together to support Proposition 8.

Over 1.1 million Californians signed petitions to place Proposition 8 on the ballot, and over 4.3 million voters already passed the very same language included in Proposition 8 as Proposition 22 in 2000."

http://mojoey.blogspot.com/2008/11/list-of-churches-supporting-prop-8.html is a blog that lists over 100 churches that supported it.

So seriously. Why all the hate towards Mormons? Mormons know enough about hate. It has nothing to do with us hating gay people. We all know and love one or two or many people who are gay. I have nothing against the person. But I don't support it. I know a lot of people who have been addicted to drugs as well. I don't hate them. It is just something I don't believe is right. And there is enough evidence in the Bible to show that God doesn't support it either. But he doesn't hate the people who are Gay.

And now all I see is how we are hateful. And then they proceed to list all of the reason why they hate Mormons. Come on! Does any one see the hypocrisy in that? Believe whatever you want but realize that I have the right to believe whatever I want too. And isn't the whole point of democracy that people can vote how they want, no matter what religion they are? Churches aren't in the voting booth with you while you are voting. The people spoke for themselves. Not the LDS church.

So why pick on just us. Are they out protesting all of the other represented religions that voted for it? No.

And we are the ones who discriminate. We are the ones who hate.

So my last point is two part. In the last five years or so there have been so many stories about Polygamists. And which church do they almost always credit the crazy to? LDS. Not FLDS. So first, get your facts straight people.

And second, why is polygamy so wrong if Gay marriage isn't? If everyone can marry any one, or anything they want, then why does the media freak out at polygamy. Cause it is a freaking double standard. I don't believe in Polygamy either but how is it so different?
This world is insane.

Stop picking on the Mormon's already.
