It’s revolting how these self-righteous fucks inflict morals via legislation, but fancy themselves to be above the law.
Meanwhile, with their words they are fostering a society of hatred & discrimination, most notably against gay people in the name of preserving the “sanctity of marriage,” which should only be pissed upon in secret - have some couth, man!
Then, conveniently enough, with their religion they are forgiven for behaving like savages, so long as they repent with the Jeebus & their families.
“People can believe in two opposing things. Humans are ingenious in how they can make exceptions for themselves. ‘Practice what you preach’ is an old saw, but there are plenty of charismatic figures who are known to be mean and nasty in their home life,”
“These people make an exception for themselves. The very fact of their own misbehavior is the reason they preach to others,”
I’m fascinated by how ppl can perceive themselves, in thoughts & words, as a good person - or somehow qualified to advise others on how to properly live their lives - when their actions say otherwise.
“Often the people who speak loudest about something are trying to protect themselves from their own urges. They act out one way on the public stage, but inside they have this urge. They feel it’s wrong, and outwardly, they’re telling themselves it’s wrong. It’s as if they’re having a conversation with themselves,”
