Social justice is the only justice.

Kim Evans, owner of Petals and Promises Wedding Flowers, in Riverview, New Brunswick, Canada, has refused to provide promised flowers to a wedding once she found out it was a same sex couple wedding, citing that she is a born again Christian. This not only breaks New Brunswick laws on non-discrimination, it violates moral laws of which she is completely oblivious.




This is written just for you Kim:



Misinterpretations

Believer in two thousand year old lies
Convert to modern truths
The poor lost soul needs to find her way
Mind so weak it needs hate for a crutch
Her own thoughts undeveloped to the point of collapse
The words of the ancient ignorant give her support
Condemnation of the unknown brings her comfort
Persecution and ignorance her best friends
 She spreads the hateful message with wilful stupidity
Yet bets say that she eats shellfish with impunity
The bible says she is an abomination, clearly
Leviticus confirms it
Is her store open on Sundays?
Are flowers sold on God’s day off?
Remember the Sabbath and keep it holy
Does God come in and buy a bouquet for Mary
Thou shall not commit adultery
Her death insisted by Exodus
Hypocrisy her new verse
She has never read scriptures
New born Christian
(Christ no new brain)
You shall love your neighbour as yourself
Try being born again
This time get it right

  1. It is sad that we still have people in the world who use religion to promate hate. This lady is just a small weak minded bigot.

  4. I found the link to your poem on the Facebook group.

    You said what needed to be said so well...for too many people religion seems to give them a moral superiority complex, and instead of becoming the better people they claim to be on the way to becoming it only serves as a justification for assholish behavior.
