An Inconvenient Truth

I bought this before I converted because I thought it was perfect. All business, no games.

But once I converted, I was told that even though the sentiment holds some truth, it's much too irreverent and I should put it away. So I did.

But in all honesty, I believe in it too much to be told what to think about it anymore.

Especially in a country where the Texas Rangers can put their religious biases before the Constitutional rights of an entire community.

Remember the Children

I bought this from the Holocaust Museum last summer because I know what it's like to have every adult in your life ignore you entirely as they fight their own battles--especially the one where they pretend to know what's best for you.

And as I sit here thinking about the 400+ Fundamentalist Latter-day Saint children that were just "removed" from their parents with an affidavit based entirely upon second-hand information, I can't help but notice the relationship between the actions of the Texas state government and all the times the Nazis took children away from their parents.

My heart goes out to the children, because they're the only ones that always seem to stand blameless in situations like these.

If only being innocent was enough to protect them.
