Someone today said to me that I am too democratic for my own good. If Loving everyone and wanting everyone to have equal rights (like homosexuals and women) is democratic, then so be it. There was a time when people said whites are only supposed to marry whites and interracial marriage was forbidden but with time that changed.
If wanting love and peace instead of war is democratic then be it, if loving everyone and valuing their life is democratic then be it. If realizing the wars are no longer Just and it only benefits the rich while our loved ones die is democratic then so be it. If realizing that Golden Rule (Luke 6:31) is the rule to live by is democratic, then so be it.
If understanding the fact that some people have too much money in their possession and still have greed while millions of people in this country and world wide die of hunger, disease and other things that people do not even worry about in their daily life is democratic, then so be it.
If putting myself in the shoes of oppressed is democratic, then so be it.
I see nothing wrong with my lifestyle, but the question is this, what is wrong with yours?
