36. Feel free to bash their bigotries but this is appalling. |

Mocking the tenets of another's religion is never a good path to take. This is just hate speech to counter theirs. I would never in a million years consider converting to Mormonism but I would NEVER ridicule it. You're right to be angry about Prop 8 but don't let your bloodlust cloud your eyes to what you're doing, or you'll become just like them (plus, they'll just feel vindicated).
Prop 8 was a disaster. Move on. Find new ways to work past the bigotry and get marriage legalized for all. Whether that means overturning Prop 8 or pushing new legislation is irrelevant; both are calm, collected approaches that show them equal rights supporters are NOT the horrible people they think we are. By legalizing gay marriage they think we're intent on destroying religion, so for God's sake don't attempt to destroy their religion! We we can show them that they're wrong, and this isn't the way to do it.
