What would Jesus do if he were a parent living in Fulton, MS? He'd totally arrange a fake prom to send the "weird kids" to and secretly set up another prom for all the regular students. Yeah, so what if Jesus never had any kids and never lived in Fulton? He still spoke English (it's in the bible, people!) and was pretty fucking clear in his Sermon on the Mount when he said: "Fuck you, outcasts!"
Constance McMillen told The Advocate yesterday, "They had two proms and I was only invited to one of them."
McMillen was told by prom organizers last week that the event would be held at a local country club in Fulton. But only seven students showed up, including two students with learning difficulties. You see, Fulton parents arranged another prom in secret for all the student who were non-gay or without learning difficulties. Just like Jesus would do.
Of the developmentally disabled students, McMillen had this to say: "They had the time of their lives. That's the one good thing that come out of this."
She added "[These kids] didn't have to worry about people making fun of them [at their prom]." Just like Jesus would have done.
