14. Indeed We Will!
Fri Feb 1, 2013, 10:58 AM
Feb 2013

I respect the man or woman who is authentically kind, empathetic, compassionate, fair-minded, intellectually curious, erotically charged, decent and wise.

I am not anti-religious; I am anti- "I'll-force-you-to-profess-to-believe-what-I-want-you-to-believe". I loathe all authoritarian doctrine and dogma, dishonest speech and cant--whether it comes from religious or irreligious forces.

We need more like you, in the movement and the world!
