Atypical Theology

I am a person that some people do not like. I am a person that my family looks down upon. To you I will say that I am, simply speaking, an atheist. I worship no god... no supreme being. My views on ethical and moral situations perhaps reflect in the way I see things. I will not treat people with religious beliefs with a holier-than-thou attitude because why should I? What have I got that you haven't? Knowledge? Wisdom? You better know damn well sure that isn't true. Who am I to tell you (or anybody for that matter) what to believe in? I haven't got the right to blatantly disrespect whatever supreme being you pay homage to.

In these respects, I think I'm weird. I will fight with no religious man or woman. I will not say that you are wrong to believe in what you do. Why? Well... I don't know. I just don't feel as if you are wrong in anyway to believe in God or whom/whatever you should happen to worship. For all it's worth, I'm an ignorant twit that hasn't got a clue what going on in this macrocosm let alone what's happening when it comes to otherworldly deeds.

Now, there is a reason why I am not like my family in being a Christian. For one, I've never seemed to be able to grasp whatever concept is being introduced by the bible. To me, it's nothing but a tale lined with truths and fictions that have been exploited and hidden throughout history. I've always been ashamed of this thought, after all, my family hasn't got the slightest clue that I do not believe in God. Dear me... I'll have to inform them sometime this century. Anyway, I've never liked their ways. To go to church one day and repent for all sins committed and then go talking and raving about people behind their backs in the same afternoon is not exactly what I call good habits. They are not... bad people; in a sense, we are all flawed. Just the hypocritical behavior that they necessitate on a day to day basis is a bit tiresome to deal with.


In the wake of this new tidbit of evidence I'd like to state that I believe in the Big Bang Theory as much as I believe in God. I mean no contempt by that statement by the way. To be brutally honest, I don't know what to believe in. There is this bogus, half-assed theory on how the world came to be out of nothing (how can something come from nothing?), and the idea of the creationist. I'm more inclined to stick with the bible. It's much more interesting in my opinion anyway. Ugh... anyway, there's wasn't much of a point to this except to tell you where I am on a religious stand point. I'd also like to ask that you please not get into a debate with me over this topic... there are to many religions, to many theories and to many ideas for me to accept any one thing someone tries to shove in my smartass head.

p.s. Sorry, I cussed uh... three times in there. But what can I say, my thoughts aren't mild. I'm going straight from brain to paper here. So you're gonna get a spicy bean burrito with diablo sauce on top.

p.s.s Ehm... right, almost forgot. This post is the last before school starts. I just thought I get this last thing out before I go take a nap and forget. So, there you have it. This was also posted because I recently came across Livingsword's blogs Creation of the Blade and Life on the Blade.

Chronicles of a Mindless Hack

It's seems I haven't been on much. I've blogged fleetingly, but I'm a bit busy lately. Sorry for my sparse presence. Formerly, I was on vacation and then I had a few tournaments in which to participate. Nothing of any particular importance in my opinion.

Perhaps you remember my post on my little bitty problem? Yes... well, it has been confirmed and I have been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. Thanks to many of you for encouraging me through that, I might have had a mental breakdown had I not got my head together. Your down to earth advice helped a lot. Treatment wise, I'm not on medication. I've opted to completely revamp my diet to accomodate my condition. I'll be fine, or so the doctor says, but I've got to be careful.

Hmm... one last thing. I won't be blogging much... I will comment and read as much as I can but posts will be sparse. School is starting for me and that is my number one priority. When I do post, be sure to know that they will be serious... very few will have anything to do with 'not overly serious crap'.
