The Gold Encompass

WARNING: Major-hate rant blogging ahead.
Read it, especially if you are easily offended.

I am so goddamn sick of theists and their stupid freakin' boycotts of anything that doesn't mesh with their perfect little ideal of the world. Arg!!!! (For the sand-headed, I am speaking of: Harry Potter, The Da Vinci Code, and The Golden Compass specifically, not mentioning the thousands of other crap out there that I don't know about)

It's one thing to abstain from activities that you deem inappropriate for your person, in fact it sometimes is the most intelligent action one can take is to not act, but: What the typical theist does is listen and obey and and then spread the word that everyone else they know should listen and obey and do or don't do anything they are told! There's no thinking. There is no intellectual analysis of what events are actually occurring, or what message is actually portrayed in a book or movie or CD. Nobody bothers to examine the first-hand account or scrutinize the source of public outcry. But above all, I am most irritated and bothered by the Theists fear to be entertained. It's an ideal that has somehow survived since the time of the puritans and today periodically is revived- The idea that if at any point you are enjoying something of this world (particularly things related to sex, although it extends to enjoyment of anything) you're sinning against God himself.

I hate the seriousness of it all. Also, I think things like "Wow, you must have a very frail belief in that shit if you can't see this movie and still believe in your perfect little God"... If the invention of 'god' is the combination of parental authority and the fear of the unknown, then how can anyone who isn't absolutely helpless want to believe it all their life? Obviously they wouldn't want to. Nor would they believe god is an invention. Jesus Christ!!!

Major rant-hate blog. My frustration feels muchly ventilated

But life is good, no matter how many pricks and assholes and people with pricks up their assholes may exist in it. Those 'shoot first and ask questions later' people are a dying breed. So, I will live on and try to ignore the flies on the wall. Peace in life is not life at all, but A still life that does not live is peaceful.
