[Revolver05]

The great achillies heel of men has always been; when things go wrong, to start looking for god. To call out in despair over his/her/it's absence in the world at the time. What we really need to do is look past the state of god in question, "is he dead, alive, on vacation?", and fix our own problems.
I am not a "christian" per se. I grew up in a protestant (presbytarian), midwestern household, and was taught the bible, and the words of scripture. I never really took hold to anything other than the simple things Jesus taught. Things like turn the other cheek, and loving one's neighbor. Cheesy as all this sounds, it is the best way to live, christian or non christian. Fuck religion, it's a crutch for our fear of an end that is inevitable to come. We create heaven so we wont have to really die, but now it's time to put our dicks on the table and say it: our problems are just that, our problems, and even if there is a god, he's not going to come down with his middle finger and smite the bigoted, and overzealous. We have to deal with ourselves.
