Woah, it's stormy outside. :O Only in Minnesota do we have a huge thunderstorm the day before a foot a snow. Oh well! I love it here nonetheless. ^_^
My Renge wig was orded a few weeks ago! I'm really excited to get it and actually start filming shorts for NYAHpro. The head director Ash (who plays Hani) has already got up a bunch of little shorts and the first episode of her "show". It's actually really cute! Check it out! :D
Now, onto a heavier topic. A couple days ago I got into a huge argument with some girls over my Facebook status. It read: 'Why so anti-gay? Jesus had two dads, and he was just fine." Funny, right? :p I sure thought it was. Just to let you know, I am a Christian. I go to church and stuff like a "good" christian, it's just I like to make strange statments like that.
Also, I didn't even think of it myself. I got it from a FailBlog post. I knew that people were going to get mad at me, and some weren't going to get it. But I could care less, it's something I usually do to make in-your-face comments on Facebook and such. Nothing too bad, just jabs at conservatives and anti-gay activists.
But these two girls were apparently VERY offended by that statement. (One was my age and one was still in middle school, mind you.) Without missing a beat, they started yelleing at me calling me disgusting, non-christian, etc. etc. I fought back, but later deleted the comments just to keep it as a joke. They then called me things like a coward and will face the wrath of God because I'm a sinner. I didn't really care, because my Uncle was gay and I am going to stand up for my family.
But what hit me hard was when they pulled the "good Christian card" on me. One of the girls sent me a message saying that she'd pray for me that one day I'd be saved. Saved? Saved from what? A mind that thinks of God as a guy with a sense of humor and a good heart? A life of trying to give people equal opportunities? If that's what I'm being "saved" from, then give your prayers to someone else.
I'll think what I want. And let everyone else know what those thoughts are. If this is what comes from doing that, then so be it.
