Religion

::from a couple days ago::

atheists are interesting people. rather sad and depressing really. see, atheists beleive there is no god or reason to life. they beleive we are randomly here on this rock we decided to call earth and surpriseingly sprung up life.

they have the most rediculous religion i know in my opinion. and yes athiest is a religion. they beleive in "nothing" so therefore have a beleif systematical organization, thus makeing them a religion.

how can you honestly beleive in nothing? how can you beleive there is nothing out there? it bothers me how one can think and beleive so. how there is nothing beyond our malcontempt society. our fucking coffe shops. this stupid fucking rat race we live in. our pathetic lifes we live.

i think people get that way. those are the people who go through a tragedy, some great calamity in their life and blame god, blame society, blame the world. you hear them say, "where was god when this happened?" truly a great bittery angst involved in their life.

you see, god, higher power, whatever you want to call this being, if you beleive, whatever you beleive, is a buissy person. this being cannot take care of everyone and everything. if this being did, why would we be here? what would be the purpose in living if we lived in pleasant ville?

there are many differant beleifs. i have taken on the beleif of norse. a viking religious beleif. i have been studying when i can. i must say it is the only religion where odin, their, "god" the "man" physicaly made life. personaly made people with his own balls.

the only thing i am deprived of, is, where did it all start? nothing tells the beggining in any fucking religion. they say where life started, this life. but what was before it? what was the real beggining? for instance, there were people before odin. he was birthed by his father and mother, ice giants. his father was thawed out by a cow licking a big ice cube with him in it. where did they come from? was there a higher power before them?

most religions don't get into too much detail of the beggining. but to what has come afterwards.

when i think about this in my mind, i can see how people could beleive in nothing. i can see why certain things are not discussed. that doesn't mean i agree certain information left unsaid is good, but i can see and sense an understanding.

i understand that all religion is obviously not the way it really is. certain things left out, certain things worded differantly, even my own. stories that were told in the past to benafit certain people's opinions and life styles.

it bothers me when people call it "norse mythology." especially when it is the beleivers of the religion calling our beleif mythology. it bothers me when one cannot stand up and state their beleifs and admitt to them. if you beleive in something, and it is true in your heart, why be ashamed? i understand certain situations where it would not be appropriate or get you into a discussion or arguement where you cannot win or where the other personeges would not understand. for example, extended mormon families.

i guess this is me searching the answers unknown that no one here can tell me. i am not expecting answers, but opinions. i am curious to what people have to say. i listen with an open mind. feel free to comment and voice your opinions and beleifs.
