finger jousting and wrestling = i win. @ 07:50 pm

Current Mood: melancholy melancholy
Current Music: stage- the world has come between us

so, lately ive been really sort of "messed up." everything. for EVERYTHING, i question it and its roots, no matter what is is. like, someone will do something right, or wrong, and i immediatly think "wait, who says what is right and wrong, its only what we have been taught and our society conforms too. but why? if its right and wrong to us, is it right and worng to other lifeforms, which of course, there has to be. there is no reason to think that in this enitre universe, which is enormous, a speck known as earth is the only thing that features life? that is a load of bullshit. how come nobody ever thinks about this stuff, and when you do they just say "wow, your deep." which i have translated into " wow, that scares me becuase im a fucking dumbass who cant think for myself." but what i decided is that religious lawas and lifestyles are an escape from truth, because people are afraid. theres noway that the heaven "as the church teached it to be" exists. if heaven is a place where you go when you die, never to be again, then what? its proven that matter and energy cannot be :created, destroyed, or changed. this has to mean when you die, the matter decomposes to the soil, but your energy goes to something else, maybe a newborn, maybe the air...but an eternal resting place doesnt make any fucking sense, good one jesus, maybe you shouldve stayed in school longer and learned a bit more before you preached your bullshit that u have millions or people worshipping you for.. thanks alot. but, im not throwing away the idea of god at all. i truly belive there was a greater force to get this started, and that it just wasnt by chance. but...people believe when the end of the world comes, it will be the end all of end all. well, go fuck yourself. expalin to me this. the dinosaurs existed far linger than humnas have, then they just became extinct and their enitre habitat's changed as well. they animals and vegitation changed. so the world wont just end, it just basicly "sheds its skin", much like a snake, and much like humans, how we shed our skin every 7 years. therefore, i hink the world just recreates, as do we. because, how else do we know so much about history, we had to have been there and we get instincts that breakthrough and we put pieces together..., there has to be something when you can hear a story of ancient rome, and your mind can create a perfect picture of it. and also, if everythinjg is matter, technicaaly it is all similar and realted, but then...do we matter at all...if you strip down the laws, towns, socity's. "country's", allegiances, and everything materlai, so you are completely left with self simplicity and insticnt, that is what matters. how did all this "caring strictly about what others think" come into play?


thinking about this makes you insnae. it makes you depressed and happy at once, so lonely and alone, yet surrounded, all at the same time. but you can either think about it...or not, and just go along with whatever rolls yourway, but then...what the fuck are YOU doing? NOtHING, youre just doing and thinking what has already been done and thought for you.


maybe i should see someone....

you're right. and you know you're right. and your deepness is appreciated. at least it proves there are people out there who think once in awhile.

this makes me think about reincarnation.

but that theory seems so... closed.

we come back as animals, it says. or people. whatever.

but what about all the other energy?

as i've told you, i think its just cycling energy with various outlets: animals, people, nature.

i think it would be amazing to come back as water.

but i could be wrong.
we could just die. end. stop.

or there could be a form of heaven. but i still think it's merely a tool to promote discipline on earth. how fucking sad.

i bet the dinosaurs didn't have to worry about this.

i envy their simplicity.
and sharp teeth.

rarr.

Heaven etc.

(Link)
You really are confused, aren't you? First of all there is a Heaven and there is a Hell whether you believe it or not. Once life begins, it never ends. It is too precious to God and he does not ever let it end. You will be around for all eternity either in Heaven or Hell and because you have free will YOU decide where you will spend eternity. Our bodies die, but our souls never do. Death is the soul's separation from the body. Hell is the soul's separation from God. I agree that Religion is ridiculous because it is man-made.
Christianity, however, is something else. Jesus did live on this earth and he did "stay in school" as you put it. As a Male Jew, he was well-educated by his family and his community. As the Messiah, he had knowledge of all things. Our knowledge of right and wrong comes from God and the Bible. Christianity is not an escape from truth but is THE TRUTH. Christians are not afraid, they are filled with hope and courage. Those who are not Christians are the ones who are afraid. Christians do not have the view of the end of the world that you state. You really need to educate yourself about what will happen at the end of the world according to the Bible. In a sense, we are related to all other creatures because we were all created by God, but the difference is that people have souls and eternal life. Dinosaurs and other animals become extinct because of environmental conditions and because they do not have souls.
We also are highly intelligent and learn how to protect ourselves from environmental changes but animals do not have this ability. We also have imaginations and that is why we can picture such images as Ancient Rome in our minds. I resent you saying that Christians are just going along with the crowd and do not think for themselves. When I was a teenager, I had many of the same questions that you have. I was in a church, in a religion, but found it empty and unsatisfying. I decided that I would think for myself, and I started to read the Bible. I tried to learn as much as I could about Christ's life, death and resurrection. You obviously do not know very much about it so you are not in any position to criticize it. I challenge you to investigate for yourself as I did. If you are not willing to do this then you should not be criticizing what you do not know. Right now, you have many misconceptions. And yes, maybe you should see someone, a true Christian who can answer your questions. I hope you will take me up on this challenge as well as your friends who seem to agree with your views. Any emptiness and loneliness you feel is a longing for God and it will remain until you find him. Nothing in this world will fill that void. Trust me. You are searching for him and I hope you find him, Life is easier when you do.

who are you? you have no idea what your talking about, you saying i cannot critcize an opinion is completely hypocritical. i qoute you "i agree, religion is redigulous becuase it is man-made." you go on to say that christianity is truth and not rediculous. how do you figure? its COMPLETELY man made. you dont fucking know jesus, you read the damn bible, big deal, that means absolubtely nothing to me. should i go make a religion about harry potter or someother novel's hereo? i think ill pass. i think ill see a true question who can answer my questions, yes that will help. (sarcasm). a true christian will say "god loves you, read the bible. the bible cannot talk sir or miss, it cannot. and.. "Dinosaurs and other animals become extinct because of environmental conditions and because they do not have souls.
We also are highly intelligent and learn how to protect ourselves from environmental changes but animals do not have this ability." ... thats one of the most arrogant statmenets ive ever heard. animals have no souls? so let me get this straight.... god created humans and animals, but only gave us sould because god only cares about us? that makes sense (again, sarcasm) and also, we have NOT leanred to protect ourselves from the environment. do you forget the tsunami this year? appernently you do. how about pompeii? you seem to me as if you don't know what your talking about, so next time you post here, include a fcuking name or something, and not be anonymous, i might actually respect your oppinion if you can say it to me while knowing who you are

sir or miss, whomever you are (and i would really like to know ) i respect uor opinion, well actually, i DID respect your opinion up until where you said dinosaurs and animals have no souls, thats just a blatant contradiction to what is tought in the bible. the bible is what you are basing your faith on, so you MUST believe that if you are going to even believe in the book. and, i completely disagree with your opinion, yet i respect it.

and another thing...im not sure how long youve been a christian, but i can tell you that i DO have enough knowledge of the religon to bash it. i was a christian for 16 years, have been confirmed, have been to catholic, private schools all of my life, have a father who is a liturgical music composer, have a mother who is the head of the editorial department for a french owned religious publishing company, so, i DO have enoguh knowledge about it to bash and criticize it, whether you like it or not.

i recommend you watch the movie "Leprachaun 2 : Lep in da' hood" it will answer many of your questions.

if you know anything about glenn, he obviously knows enough about jesus to decide whether he believes in him or not. telling him what you believe isnt going to change what he believes; if you read his post you would realize thats he has clearly thought about this enough to make decisions withought the help of anonymous posters.

if you're too lazy to make a livejournal, at least sign your posts.
