Make sure you watch this, guys, it's amazing. The New Zealand parliament successfully legalises gay marriage and then everyone stands up to sing the traditional Maori love song Pokarekare Ana and lines up to hug Louisa Wall, the MP who submitted the bill.

Oh and here's the hilarious and heartwarming reply from MP Maurice Williamson congratulating her.

quote:

I have had a reverend in my local electorate call and say that the gay onslaught will start the day after this bill is passed. We are really struggling to know what the gay onslaught will look like. We do not know whether it will come down the Pakuranga Highway as a series of troops, or whether it will be a gas that flows in over the electorate and blocks us all in.

I also had a Catholic priest tell me that I was supporting an unnatural act. I found that quite interesting coming from someone who has taken an oath of celibacy for his whole life.

That reminds me of my favorite quote from Martin Luther King, Jr:

quote:

I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.

Lifts me up when the evil in the world seems overwhelming. :unsmith:

You left out the puzzling dichotomy he sets up before that quote, though:

Patton Oswalt posted:

So when you spot violence, or bigotry, or intolerance or fear or just garden-variety misogyny, hatred or ignorance, just look it in the eye and think, "The good outnumber you, and we always will."

The people who regularly exhibit bigotry, intolerance, hatred, ignorance, fear, and/or misogyny either marginally or vastly outnumber The Good, depending on hard you decide to pay attention to them. Sometimes you have to do more than sit there and wait for these things to go away. Here's a wall of hundreds of Bostonians preventing the Westboro Baptist Church from harassing mourners today. They're not in their computer chair thinking about the inevitable triumph of good. I find this kind of thing far more uplifting than the fact that hey, most people don't blow people up.
