In fact, it may not even be the inability to understand than the refusal to understand. Yup, refusal sounds right. Indeed, this is coming from someone who subscribes to a religion that has notoriety for intolerance and disturbing amounts of conservatism. =P However, the rally that you guys did to counter the vapid remarks and stances of the WBC is a wonderful thing. You guys did it peacefully, drowning out the noise of hate with the voices of peaceful allegiance. I really hope this is something that benchmarks an even deeper alliance between groups.
