If not gays then me

After watching the V (Vendetta) movie and seeing the persecution of gays I am reminded that I owe them a debt of gratitude. The gays get the brunt of the religious people's social critizism regardless of whether they are religious or not. Now religious people will always need someone to demonize (you can't be 'right' and moral if you can't point to someone who isn't) and after they gays it's me/us the atheists. We already know they distrust us the most but so far they remain distracted. Imagine Rove is trying to win the 2016 electron and gay marriage/adoption/pension/teaching/etc are all worn out having been on previous ballet boxes. What else is there to demonize? Atheists, with their science and reason. So until then thanks for taking the brunt of it!
