EQUALITY FOR ALL... but Just a Little More for Me

I am pro-gay, pro-LGBT, pro-all that. But articles like As Funds Invoke Bible Values, Others See Intolerance makes it difficult for me to support them when, in essence, they are throwing a tantrum. Basically, new "exchange traded funds" are promising they won't invest in any companies that produce or support things against Christian values. Calling it "intolerance" when in reality they aren't saying, "No you can't marry, no you cant sell guns, etc." They are just saying, "You do you and I just wont fund it". And honestly what is wrong with that? They have our tolerance just not our approval and I think that screams equality more than anything.

The Bible says love thy neighbor, and we do. The "breeder" community loves the LGBT, the gun fanatics, because God made them. But that does not mean we have to full on support them. I know people who do drugs, drink, and I still fully love them and tolerate them but I do not support what they do in their free time.

When reading through the article I saw a lot of numbers. How the fact that people are now supporting the funds that aren't investing in what they don't believe in is costing people money. Well how would Gays or gun supports react if people asked them not to invest then the thing they believe in, but rather the very thing they stand against. Because that is what they are doing. They would throw a bigger fit they are now, if that's even possible.

And believe it or not their are companies who ride that grey area like its their job. Companies who serve people with lifestyles and beliefs they don't support because if they didn't it would be an uproar. But lets say a lesbian who doesn't want to serve a straight person because they don't believe in their lifestyle they would applauded for standing up rather than getting told they are intolerant.

We scream, "EQUALITY EQUAILTY", yet we don't want it for everyone. Ironic isn't it. The LGBT want their lifestyles to be accepted but when they get that but not support with it, its not good enough. Why cant I see you, tolerate you, then go my own way? That is what they are doing when they aren't throwing rallies and riots. But when the Christian does it its not right. That doesn't sound like equality it sounds like people want to be treated equal but treated a little better than others... Makes sense? No, no it does not.

So I suppose what I'm getting at after this little 500 word rant is, other companies have invested along the guidelines of other religions but this incident was a big deal because it "offended" the wrong community. Also, that the definition and image of "equality" has become skewed to fit different peoples views and "wants". But what seems to remain the same is standing up for what you believe, for what is right is an amazing thing, unless it goes against what others say...
