because as someone that is now outsider
(in more ways than I can count)
it is difficult to see myself as anything but
an outsider surrounded by christanity.

praying at city council meetings.
listening to politicians "debate" whether my marriages should
be recognized by the gov't since god won't like it.
listening to ppl bitch about the war on christmas
even though christmas starts in October.

not to mention how often ppl witness to me about the lord.



this explains, I guess, why various liberation movements
are scoffed at by so many ppl.

just the mention of it
is seen as a threat to the mainstream culture.
it's an attack on their identity.

and for some, a failure to attack those movements
may be viewed as a moral failing that god will judge them for.

crazy.
