Baaahahahaah! In the paper this morning, Archbishop George Pell actually uses the term "activist judges". BAAAHAAHAHAAAAAA! What a LAME-O! Way to jump on the bandwagon, G. Where the hell do you think you are? Oh yeah, in a shitty world where dumbass Archbishops can write opinion pieces that poorly argue the 'case' against gay marriage. Apparently, "decades of international research" have provided evidence to the fact that if you are not in, or not raised in, a 'traditional' marriage, you're pretty much gonna be a social problem for the rest of us...but George makes sure to diffidently qualify all his talk about how in families where there is not marriage, you're pretty much fucked - you're gonna be unhealthy, unfaithful, your kids are gonna be baby sluts, and then they're gonna live in sin just like you did, you're gonna be poor, you're all gonna be criminals, you're gonna kill yourself, or, if you dont, you're certainly not gonna live as long or be as happy as the marrieds - by saying "This is not to condemn devoted parents in situations other than marriage, single parents, often heroic(!), and de facto couples." Nope, George, no condemnation of them in your article at all. It's just the research talking. I liked that 'heroic' touch. Way to heap it on, man. Also, you omitted another group of "devoted parents in situations other than marriage" there, didn't you? But I suppose that's precisely your point, eh. You're so reasonable, George. Making all these social welfare arguments. You really look out for us average peeps. You talk so sweet, we might even forget that you don't care a jot about any of this shit you're spinning. You just think gay people suck. But I suppose that's implicit in statements like "Allowing same-sex couples to marry would worsen the situation of the family in Australia" and "It is not discrimination to say that same-sex marriage takes us in the wrong direction". I'm sorry dude, but you haven't backed that up, and you've been disingenuous about your motivation for making the argument. You suck, and not even in an original way. Clunky-ass mofo.

People might be getting sick of me and my pissed off position about this gay marriage stuff, but I can't let it go. It's not about the marriage thing. I'm not into it because I think all gay people should get married, or whatever. It's about the normalised injustice thing. It galls me to think that people go "Why do they want to get married anyway?" etc etc etc, "What's with all the troublemaking?" blah blah. I'm like, PEOPLE! It's not fair! And it's a symptom of this fundamental assumption about gay relationships being less worthy, and this unreflective acceptance of the idea that gay people shouldn't really mind about their different civic and social status, since they're different and all. And then you go, like "Wouldn't you mind?" And they're like, "Uh, lady, that's beside the point. Cos I'm not gay". Right. This stuff can't work in people's minds unless they think, gay/different=lesser. And that's fucked up.
