I am always amazed at how primitive seemingly sophisticated and educated people can be.

History is full of man's inhumanity to man.  We measure time with one holocaust after another.  Sometimes we give them pretty names, but the gist is still the same.  The Wars of the Roses, The Crusades, Culloden, World War I, the Vietnam War Era, we are a violent species.

We make decisions like children with a box of crayons.  Pink is good.  Brown is bad.  Then we twist the facts to support our feelings.

We even try to control the ultimate creator sullying it with our own attributes and feelings, then using it to support the terrible things we do.  For some reason we still want validation even in our most heinous moments.

So yesterday I was actually moved to tears by a friend's call that says the Supreme Court allows us to marry the people we love.  Perhaps we are moving in the right direction at last.
