A Few Words From An Uppity Faggot

April 27, 2015 By John Rankine 2 Comments

I don’t want or need your love, prayers, acceptance, or even tolerance. I just want you to stop interfering with my life.

I don’t think it’s too much to ask.

From age 5 to present, I’ve been bullied, punched, kicked, spat on, name-called, and threatened with my life – and I will never be your victim.

But at age 60, I am tired of your oppressive, bullshit, bigotry.

Can you not be satisfied I will spend the rest of my eternal life in flames, that you have to make my life a living Hell here on Earth?

So please – go forth and multiply, take care of the poor, and just shut the fuck up!

    “Eternal Life’… see, that’s another bit of misinformation that those who profess to love Jesus are spreading about. Half of eternity is already gone. You will therefore burn for only the other half of eternity. Not nearly so frightening.
