I drove EWO to Walmart to return the death glad bag of fish carcasses.
There was a foul smell in my truck, and it wasn't coming from the fish.
It was the smell of bigotry.
EWO said:
I was in Holland last year, visiting my niece, when I met two lovely ladies in the park by my nieces house.
Each lady was carrying a small child. One a boy, one a girl.
These ladies were so lovely. So smart. One was a professor. The other was...hmm...well something professional, I can't remember.
I really liked them. Every time I saw them I would wave to them.
One day I mentioned them to my niece. She said, "Oh I know them! They sing in my choir at church. I have to tell you something, Auntie. They are
Lesbians!"
Well, I gasped in shock. "Well how did they get their children?!"
"Oh. They researched sperm donors at the sperm bank and chose their future children from that. One of the lesbian ladies carried the babies."
"I tell you what..." EWO said to me as I drove, "I wondered what they would say to their children when the children were old enough to ask questions. It's so unfair to the children."
"If the children are loved they will be just fine" I said, breaking my silence.
"Well I refused to wave to them anymore." EWO said with a self righteous sniff. "How dare they do that to those poor children."
"Do what?" I asked, "LOVE their children? Provide them with a loving home?"
"They are living in
sin." EWO said through pursed disproving lips.
I sighed and bit back my temper.
It does no good to argue against such blatant bigotry. The small wrinkled mind is closed.
Let's just hope that the God she worships has a bigger heart then the minuscule one that beats in bony disapproving chest of EWO.
