My friend actually posted a link today to a thank you letter sent to Kim Kardashian by a reverend. This however was not your everyday thank you note, this was a message to all. As we all probably know Kim Kardashian filed for divorce after 72 glorious days. This is an insult to the whole concept of marriage. Reverend Susan Russel wrote this letter, in the form of a blog post, to Kim Kardashian informing her that she would be added to the list of failed marriages that she was going to use as examples when she helps to argue in favor for the Respect for Marriage Act on Capitol Hill. While people who argue against gay marriage say that gay marriage would destroy the sanctity of marriage, she argues that Kim Kardashian's and Britney Spears' marriages (72 days and 55 hours) are perfect of examples of why it is not dependent on a persons sexual orientation but rather their character. I for one completely agree with her. What kind of country do we live in where people get married for mere hours while people who truly love each other and have been in committed relationships for more than 10 years cannot enjoy the same rights that Kim Kardashian took for granted? For any one that is interested here is the link. I highly recommend it!
