For a community we don't have a lot in common. I like black and you like white, now that's a common problem. And so, we're here today to see if we can solve 'em. Now, say I like black, and he likes white(and I hear you like, "What's the problem", right?). But let me portray it in a different light. With regards to gay rights, what's the problem with thinking the bible was right? Who cares what you think, as long as you don't shove it upon people. Of course I believe freedom of all people, that means everybody, including gays, are equal. But what if I didn't? Would you resent me for my way of living, for the way I grew up, for the way I was risen? Would you hate me, would you call me ignorant? White and black, two ends of a spectrum, but ultimately the same thing. What a metaphorical conundrum of ethics.

The Same Thing.
