Stonewall, Manitoba
The Postmaster has of late been receiving large quantities of correspondence from certain cities across Canada. The Postmaster has thusly decided to begin sharing the deepest thoughts of humankind one town at a time. Today, let us journey to Stonewall, Manitoba. The Postmaster does not know what makes this town such a haven for prolific writers. Perhaps there is an excellent library, or some exceptional teachers, or perhaps there is not very much with which to occupy one's self in said town and the inhabitants have only felt-tipped pens and legal size paper with which to amuse themselves. Whatever the reasons, The Postmaster was this morning blessed to reap what Stonewall, Manitoba, has sown. Let me share my bountiful crop with all:
"I do not want two mammies.
I like my Daddy.
This bill must not go through."
The Postmaster is tempted to believe, based on the quality of sentence structure, reasoning and penmanship, as well as the use of the word "mammie" that the author of this letter is a small child. However, it is also possible that the author simply lives in his parents' basement. Regardless, The Postmaster is sorry to hear that same-sex marriage will result in the author's father being forcibly removed from his home and replaced with another mother, but perhaps he should simply stop being such a mammy's boy and try to move on with his life.
"LOVE IS KIND
BE KIND TO OUR NEXT GENERATION
VOTE NO TO SAME-SEX MARRIAGE"
Now here is a letter after The Postmaster's own heart - the words "Love" and "is" are each in their own separate heart, with a larger heart encircling all three words. I believe it was Socrates himself who said, "When in doubt, make your arguments cuter!". Or perhaps The Postmaster is mistaken. Regardless, if there were any way to convince someone that openly discriminating against a portion of the population is loving, it is certainly through the use of large cartoon hearts.
"THINK OF TODAY AS IF IT WAS THE LAST OPPORTUNITY IN YOUR LIFE TO DO SOMETHING FOR GOD
We all know God's view of marriage is the union of one man & one woman
WHO has the power to make the sun rise?
WHO has the power to quake the earth?
WHO has the power to roll in the waves of tsunami?
TODAY - YOU have the opportunity to join with this power against same sex marriages.
The Postmaster is at a loss for words. Never before has The Postmaster seen so clearly described the issue of same-sex marriage. If God Himself would kill hundreds of thousands of people through natural disasters - albeit in a different part of the world far removed from this debate but perhaps His aim is not what it used to be - then surely we should all be preparing our life-preserving watercraft for when He should strike again. Perhaps the good people of Stonewall write so frequently because they live on such low ground.
