it just doesn't make any sense to me.

boycotting the russian olympics because of the LGBT issue - fine.

boycotting them because of the stray dogs issue - fine.

not boycotting them when they're in our country because of the dead-babies-by-way-of-abortion issue.


not fine.


the only way that LGBT rights and dog rights can be worthy is if those creatures' lives are worthy. and they are. 

but why is the life of a gay person more worthy than the life of an unborn baby? at least the gay person can (at least to some extent) fight for him/herself.

why is the life of an animal more worthy? (they can fight, too. teeth.)


it just doesn't make any sense to me. and it never will.


because it's not right.


“In ancient Rome, there was a potestas patria or the right of the father to dispose of a child. In our modern day, there is a potesta matria or the right of the mother to dispose of a child. In between pagan Rome and pagan today there was, and still is, a group of God-loving people who will protect those who are incapable of independent existence because they sense in their own frailty the mercy of God and, therefore, resolve to extend it to others.” Archbishop Fulton Sheen
