It seems like its been a while since we have heard about somebody saying something this offensive and stupid. You are probably going to be stunned at this quote, I mean in this day and age, how could somebody be this fucking stupid to say something like this. Yes, I would imagine some people do think this way. And yes, he might have been doing it for attention. Well, I guess I shouldn’t keep you waiting, here is the quote that has me and many others in an uproar. Speaking in support of a proposed state constitutional ban on same-sex
unions, one Rev. Hayes Wicker of First Baptist Church in Naples, Fla.,
was recently quoted by the Naples Daily News as saying, “This is a tremendous social crisis, greater even than the issue of slavery.”
WHAT. THE. FUCK!!!!???? Really? Greater than the issue of slavery? Honestly? I don’t know if this guy is black or not, but not only is this comment bigoted towards gays, but it also reeks of racial undertones as well. Let’s compare slavery and gay marriage, shall we?
Gay marriage- A celebration of the love between 2 people of the same sex.
Slavery- A slaveowner’s love of being a lazy, racist, inconsiderate person.
Gay marriage- Homosexuals being granted equal rights among all other people instead of being treated as second class citizens.
Slavery- Slaves being given equal rights among other slaves but still being treated and thought of as second class people compared to whites.
Gay marriage- Still not legal in 49 states
Slavery- Still not legal in 50 states.
Gay marriage- Battle fought in Senate whether an amendment should be written into the constitution guaranteeing that one class of people should not have the same equal rights as everyone else.
Slavery- Civil war that nearly tore the country apart fought to give one class of people freedom to go along with all other classes of people.
Gay marriage- Resulted in nobody being stolen from Africa, forced onto a ship bound for a country a world away, sold, held against their will, sometimes raped, beaten and treated lower than a sewer rat.
Slavery- Resulted in nearly every one of those things by every man, woman, and child who was ever a slave.
Gay marriage- Gives gays respect and dignity.
Slavery- Takes away slaves dignity and any respect or self respect they ever had.
Ok, so I stand corrected. Both are the same, I mean, both are illegal. But to be fair, you can truly compare the two unless gay marriage is made legal, only then can we compare the two. So I say make it legal so that we can see if society crumbles and another civil war breaks out. Oh. Wait. It is legal in Massachusetts, how could I forget the violent and bloody war that wasn’t fought. And how can I forget how Massachusetts has crumbled to the ground since it became legal in 2004, I mean, the Boston Red Sox have only won two World Series since then compared with three before then. And how about the other countries such as Belgium, The Netherlands, Spain and Canada that have legalized it. I mean, I don’t know about you, but Belgium Waffles have tasted less Belgiumee since it became legal.
I think its pretty damn clear, this so called “man of God” fucking reverend has gone so far over with this statement that it just might be the most offensive and dumbest thing a reverend has ever said. It almost reminds me of the religious right’s king of saying stupid things, Pat Robertson. I haven’t posted anything about him in a long time so I’m long over due. This one is courtesy of positiveatheism.org check them out sometime. Anywho, here’s Pat:
Many of those
people involved with Adolph Hitler were Satanists, many of them were
homosexuals — the two things seem to go together.
– Pat Robertson, The 700 Club television
program, January 21, 1993, ignoring the facts that the Nazis killed
homosexuals as ruthlessly as they did Jews and that Satanism emerged
with Anton Szandor LaVey
