my icon, i like what it says a lot.
I've been doing a lot of thinking tonight. I wish i could shut my mind off actually, but that's not guna happen.
I wonder, is there such thing as fate? Or do you set your own destiny. I'd prefer the latter, just because I'd like to think that my choices do effect what will be in the future, but thats a frightening thought nonetheless. Because that means every little action can impact everything.
I'd like to think that we have a choice. That we are not just puppets dangling from a rapt puppeteers greasy fingers. I don't truly believe in a higher power. And I can't make myself completely respect the opinions of those that believe in God. Yet I still do respect their freedom of religion. But how terribly close minded must you eb to think that "the all mighty" has control over everything. Religion is a form of controlling the naive masses. It gives people hope of something better this, that one day, all their pain and anguish will be taken away and they will be in heaven with the Creator. Or if they lived a life of sin, they'll rot away in hell. Whatever happened to God forgiving all his children. That's kinda hypocritical of him, is it now, to send them away to "Helll"??
I refuse to live my life thinking that there will be something better after this. I don't believe any of it, and I'd love to hear your optimistic opinions on how great it is to live for Him if you are a believer.
It's bittersweet, somewhat beautiful to know that people devote their lives to something they have NO proof exists. They believe stories told over and over again, drilled into their minds. They live in their pure little worlds. Would that make the people who don't believe dirty? Do we mar the purity of the evil and treacherous establishment of church. Do we dirty the minds of those who devote themselves to some nonexistent higher power, and live off the words spoken by pedophiles, scammers and lunatics?
I am a walking talking breathing fucking sin then. Yet still, by the "book", if i say a few hail marys and confess all my dirty deeds, I'll be free of my Sins.
Fuck church. Fuck priests.
& fuck the idea of no pre-marital sex? lol
