To all of God's children.

I believe that we are all connected by a higher power. Some call it God, others Allah, but whatever it is, some sort of energy unites every human being on this planet. Recently the little boy in this picture was murdered by one of his male classmates because he asked him to be his valentine. I have no words that have not already been said about this tragedy except that there exists an utter disgust in my heart for any family that teaches a child hatred. At 15, Lawrence King, lived his life proud of who he was and was murdered for it by a 14 year old. Shame on that 14 year old's parents. Not only has he ruined the life of many people by eliminating the life of Lawrence King, but he has ruined his own life by acting as he did. Love is the only thing that will keep this world together, but, apparently, love does not exist in the murderer's family, nor does the murderer exist in God's family as far as I'm concerned. Shame and disgust on them.

All those who teach that God hates gays don't understand the true essence of God, they don't understand love.
Every time when I hear that someone has beenbeaten up or killed because of their's sexual orientation my heart gets broken, how much hate and fear there can be?
When parents teach kids to hate in the name of God, they are following teachings of lesser god, one-eyed monster made by humans.
Even though I may be a foolish optimist, I do believe that the tide of time is changing and these unholy relics of fear will be abandoned.
But alas, too late for too many.
