Sometimes I cant help but wonder if people still think at all about anything. Everyone is turning more and more into animals being driven by their basic primal needs. They want (do not need) more money, more TV, more sex. Its all a take take lifestyle these days. The deprssion statistics rise as this lifestyle we live can leave you feeling nothing but empty and pointless. The ones who come to the sad realisation that it is all for nothing do not hesitate to live life to the fullest and enjoy whilst they can or bring on the eventual end prematurely. A select few aspire that there is more to this life than meets the eye. They turn to the sky. As many men before them have dreaming of a life beyond. Some in a physical way others in the spiritual way. "Where did we come from? Why are we here?",They ask themselves. Most only can assume that we are hre becasue of GOD. A God THE God. Call "him" what you will. I mean after all there is a collection of 1000 year old stories that seem to link up together so it must be true. After all.... God said it was. O.o
Now before I get to my actuel point let me say this. I have been raised as a christian since I was born. At the age of five or six I asked Jesus to come into my heart. Not because my parents told me to but because that was what I wanted. I saw a picture of Jesus on the cross and thought anyone who would do that for me is very awesome. I remained a strong christian for years. Life was good. Other than an occosional spanking it was good. I prayed, I went to church I did it all. I BELIEVED it all. "What went wrong!?", people ask. (refering to my faith) Well...how do we know there is anything wrong?? Maybe I opened my eyes a little more. Maybe instead of running from the pointlesness of it all I decided to grow up and accept it. Maybe God is just a glorified Tooth Fairy? After all just like children you chase after something you can not see, you can not feel, just like Santa and presents. God is your fat assed jolly old man and the presents are those trinkets, that make it seem ok, and you give the credit to Santa(God).
All Religion is a desire for perfection and the fact is....there is no such thing. It is an unsatisfaction of the real. Like all humans you want more, you want bigger and better. So you turn to God(wether it be Thor or what have you). Life is corrupt and you are corrupt so you know what...lets make God to be our perfect figure to aspire to. Saying its God you are aspiring to is kind of pointless anyways. All christians acknowledge that there is no way to uphold all the commandments and rules God lays down. So why even torture yourself?!? If you know you will fail then why attempt it? Its like playing russian roulette with a semi-automatic 9mm. Your doomed to ne shot right in your face, leaving behind a mess for the others to clean up.
The sad truth is there can be no such thing as perfect. Except for ideas. As soon as you bring forth these ideas to reality they arent perfect cause they just arent. They never are. Vaccines and cures either kill a few or dont work. Xbox 360 are defective sometimes and their hard drives die. God isnt there for you ever and does nothing. Its the mind that makes things perfect. The Christian Placebo Effect I call it. God is there so he must be doing good. "I avoided that car wreck (Thank you God)" or you can look at it the way it is...you turned the fucking wheel dumbass. Not God. Anyways. Just quit while your ahead ok? Its the best idea.

Long....interesting....and i liked it. and i'm not sure what i thinka bout it but here's the first reaction you wanted. hahaa.
I can't say that I agree with everything on there but you already know that. I think some people are like that, but I wouldn't go generalizing that that's what Christianity is, or that's what God is period. I think some people treat him and Christianity like that but it dont mean that that is what it actually is. It's just people mixed up ideas about it. I dont understand everything tho. God isn't the tooth fairy and he's not santa claus, tons of people think he is but he's not. And just because we cant understand it dont make it not true... gargle.
I wont go preaching on here tho. Haha. I did like reading it tho.
I'll post something else about it when i have time to think about it.
Ten out of TEN.
You nailed that one right on the nose. There was way to much there for me to sit here and comment on it all, so I'm just going to leave it at "Awesome", and try and write something to match it. :D
