Those cosmetic catalogs that come in the mail,

I don’t read those.

Not because cosmetics are bad.

Or because I’m against eye shadow.

I’m not afraid of mascara.

I harbor no hatred for makeup.

I’m simply disinterested.

That’s it.

I don’t use makeup.

Never even think about it.

Except for when I’m throwing away those catalogs that come in the mail.

Now…

Those GLBT issues that pop-up in culture,

I don’t pay attention to those.

Not because gay people are bad.

Or because I’m against them.

I’m not afraid of homosexuals.

I harbor no hatred for trans gender individuals.

I’m simply not interested.

That’s it.

I’m not gay.

So I don’t think about gay stuff.

Gay rights are as important to me as mascara.

Does that make me insensitive?

Yes.

And as long as I’m confessing,

Here are some other things I’m insensitive about:

• Toilet cleaner brands
• Astrology
• Wood chisels
• Celebrity marriages
• Parakeet mating habits

…and too many other things to list.

There are way more things I don’t care about than things I do.

Insisting that I OUGHT to care about mascara isn’t going to make me do it.

Same goes for GLBT cultural issues.

Marriage, by my definition, requires a dude and a chick.

But honestly,

I’m not interested enough to debate it.

If that statement offends you, write me a letter.

I’ll read it along with the next cosmetics catalog I receive.

Blessed is the man

who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked

or stand in the way of sinners

or sit in the seat of mockers.

But his delight is in the law of the Lord,

and on his law he meditates day and night.

Psalm 1:1
