Jesus loves me but...
Fucking Bible-thumpers woke me up this morning. Can you believe that? Way the fuck out here. Grrrr. Nothing like JWs after four hours sleep. Totally lame. When I told him I wasn't interested he confirmed that seemed to be the 'general consensus' here. He then had the audacity to ask why. What, am I suddenly the half dead / half asleep spokesperson for the general public in the Kootenays?
I replied: "I do not believe in organized religion and I've met a lot of hypocrites." Chalk up Jehovah's Witness one, me zero for that weak response. I wanted to get into the real reasonss but the fucker tricked me with his flashy dress clothes and his nefarious use of a cute little boy with him to deflect all flamer-based attention. As I rudely closed my door in his face, he sneakily threw out a "You know what is good? Reading the Bible" at me. Reading the Bible? Buddy, I can think of a shit load of things that I would consider 'good' that top that...and at least two that don't involved sex.
Had I been more awake, I'm sure I could have delved into many reasons why I do not believe and refuse to follow Christianity or any derivative thereof:
- I have many tattoos and piercings, therefore, have already spit in God's face for desecrating his image
- The Bible is a good story...most Christians would scoff at Scientologists for following some random book written by some random guy that led to particular ridiculous lifestyle choices...silly Christians - can you say "I'm a huge ass hypocrite?"
- I've studied the historical inception of Christianity and there have been two Genesis stories written about 500 years apart from each other. In the original story, woman and man (Eve and Adam) were created together, equally, and at the same time out of dust from the Earth. In the later version (the one fully promoted today), Adam was created first (thus sealing his arrogant supremacy over woman) and then Eve was created out of his rib (enslaving woman for all time to be dominated by males). What a fucking treat that was to us. Suddenly the demanded subservience of women for the rest of time is rationally justified by men! Bite me you Bible freaks.
- I have zero tolerance for any ideology that promotes belittling and ostracizing others that don't blindly hold the same belief structure. While many Christians would deny that is the case, how many other religions have become the support system for extremist, white supremacists? Jesus was Jewish you fucking morons. Do you think your religion is actually fostering a sense of community with its blackmailing tactics? If I don't follow it I will burn forever in the depths of Hell? Where is the unconditional love in that method of thinking.
- Christianity led to the self-congratulating, self-promoting, lets all pat each other on the fucking backs for being so cool, glorified snuff film Passions of the Christ which is as scary as this - the Road Warrior was cool - Bible beating, Christian supremacy rationalizing Passions is just fucking disturbing.
- Finally, the most personal by far deals with my best friend in high school. His father was known by the entire town to be an upstanding, faithful Christian. He was the head of the RCMP (those puffy pants wearing, bell-hop outfitted, horse riding cowboys with the funny hats that enforce some form of the law here in Canada) and performed good Christian acts while he lived in this wee town of 35 000 people. At home, he would tie his son to a chair and beat him until he was unconscious while he was drunk on confiscated moonshine some of the locals would make and he would tag as evidence and then bring home for his own personal stash (with the evidence tags still on). I realize this is one measly example of a good Christian gone bad, but get real...how many other hypocritical pedophile priests do you need before you realize your religion is based on and supports the reinforcement of lies?

So what are you trying to say? Are you saying the pickles weren't green enough for you? Or maybe the state of the national currency in Tibet just doesn't cut it for you and you're going to have to take your business somewhere else?
I'm not sure. I know my blog post was amiguous at best but I'm trying to come to some definitive personal ideology ;) Loser.
