They preach about pride “Pride is a sin!” People nod obediently “Two men kissing is a sin!” A few more obedient nods WHAT ARE WE? Slaves? Do we obey all the things That a silly old book says To get to a place most probably Will never see Since they’ve committed just one ONE SIN? Two men kissing Sounds harmless as a butterfly Two girls kissing Sweet as sugar It’s fine to be yourself Boy, girl, both or none It’s accepted in the animal kingdom Why not the human one? Are you scared of a book? A book that controls how you act How you talk, speak, pray? Have pride everyone! Have pride in yourself! Who you are! Who you want to be! BECAUSE SOMEONE SOMEONE IN THIS BEAUTIFUL GREEN/BLUE PLANET WILL LOVE YOU FOR IT!

Not only is this for LGBT but I feel that people are just brought up into a religion and forced into it. Like how most are forced to see that LGBT is a bad thing. I hope people have the ability to choose their faith, their path in life and not be bullied or hurt for doing so. And the thing about the animal kingdom is true! There are several gay animals like penguins, sheep, flamingos, giraffes and lion! So there is ‘pride’ (pun intended, I regret nothing) in the animals kingdom: but not in the human Kingdom. All over some book that says we can’t.
