Here Ryan blogs about politics, film, TV, history, religion, science, books, theater, digital media, LGBT issues, Bushwick & Williamsburg, New York City, and anything else he's interested in at the moment. Oh, and he'll probably talk a lot about himself.

My mom showed me this anti-gay marriage flyer over Skype that she received attending this morning’s mass. It’s from a group called Maryland Catholic Conference and it asks readers to call their local state senator, Jim Mathias in Ocean City, and ask him to support traditional marriage.
Near the end of mass, the priest invited the congregation to an upcoming rally to protect marriage. He made the invite right before the “go in peace to love and serve the Lord” part.
I’ve always felt bad for the gay kids, out or still in the closet, sitting with their parents and being forced to listen to such hurtful nonsense. I sort of remember being that kid.
