Transsexuals attacked yet again

What is wrong with people in this world? why have we not evolved in our thinking beyond the dark ages? the earth is a sphere and revolves around the sun but ignorance attacked that and science prevailed, we would never have gotten out of the dark ages if people would have continued to think that everything is as people before them perveived. Today we have the LGBT battle for acceptance and people refuse yet again to believe that the evidence presented before them is fact so they refute it with slanderous statements and discriminatory slurs, everytime someone who is different shows up people will bash and otherwise do anything in their power to destroy the different person be it by verbal or physical violence. I feel I give humanity too much credit for having the brain capacity to understand complex things, and very few people seem to possess this ability. Humans seem to be primarely stuck in the "be like me or else you will suffer" mentality and cant get past the black and white world they themselves have created as their perceived reality, I for one hope the world changes this year with the possibilites that may come for us after 2012(if there is anything that will happen). I hope the world as we know it ceases to exist and we as humanity evolve into greater beings with a better understanding of the world around us.
