What the F***

So, today I'm reading the Yahoo! News, and I see an article about Jessica Alba being pregnant. I'm thinking, "Ah, that's nice." Of course, then I scroll down and see the comments that have been posted and think, "What the F*** are these guys thinking?" Apparently, some people feel they must point out that according to God's law, Alba is a bad person because she and the baby's father aren't married. This got me thinking about how often this kind of thinking pops up in today's society. These people seem to feel that not only is it wrong for a child not to grow up in a two parent home (male-female parent home), but they just have to force this view on everyone, whether others want to hear it or not. It's really starting to piss me off!

Sure, I think that a child growing up in a loving two parent home is better equipped to handle their future life than children not growing up in a loving home, but there are a lot of kids who receive just as much, if not more, love in a one parent home, or in a home that is not represented by the "traditional" family model. What people forget in their rush to follow "God's" law is that it is the child who counts. It's all about love. If the child is going to be loved, who cares if it's raised by a mom and a dad, 2 moms, 2 dads, a grandparent, aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters, or whatever.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that we're all equipped with morals, standards, ethics or whatever you want to call them. If you think that you have to have yours dictated by someone else rather than just doing good because it's the right thing to do to make a better world, maybe you had better re-evaluate yourself. Maybe you should take time away to discover whether your "good deeds" are done so that you can go to heaven, please another person, or look like an appropriate Christian, Buddhist, Jew, Muslim, etc., or whether you are actually a good person who just likes to see others happy and be happy, as well. I'm tired of the hypocrisy! Get a backbone, people, and think for yourself. I'm not saying religion is bad or good. I'm just saying that rather than let others tell you how to think or what to do, use the great, grey matter between your ears and make some decisions on your own.

And by the way, it's none of our business if Jessica Alba is married before she has a baby or not. This is her business, and she needs to do what she feels is right, not what we feel is right. Rant concluded. You will now be returned to your regularly scheduled program.
