I bet about all of you people are going to despise me for this…
I hate this sticker/picture/whatever else it is being turned into. I take offense to it. Serious offense. The basis of this sticker is that all religions are basically the same and do the same thing and we are all the same blah blah blah blah blah …ect..ect. But, see here: they really AREN’T all the same. And yes, I take offense to my religion being compared to and saying it is the same as the other religions. It is not. And I think, rather am sure, that if you ask anyone from these other religions, they would take offense to being compared to most of the others there. I think the only two that can be compared the most, are Judaism and Christianity. Besides that, yeah, we got nothing hardly in common. And I take offense. 

not ready to make nice

dreaminginsomniacs:

Forgive sounds good.

My hands are black with your lessons
That you forced own my throat
About how to be and act.

I can’t be rid of what has been done to me.
No matter how much I try, I am dirty.
YOU made me dirty though, not I.

I just can’t tell you i forgive you yet.
Lying is not my habit. Its yours.
So tell me again you love me.

Leave me alone for once.
You’ve done enough.
let me lie in peace.

Forgive sounds good.
Too easily said.
Give me time.

Maybe one day;
We can be ok.
not now.

An Atheist Professor of Philosophy was speaking to his Class on the problem Science has with God. He asked one of his new Christian students to stand.

  • Professor:

    You are a Christian, aren’t you, son?

  • Student:

    Yes, sir.

  • Professor:

    So, you believe in God?

  • Student:

    Absolutely, sir.

  • Professor:

    Is God good?

  • Student:

    Sure.

  • Professor:

    My brother died of cancer, even though he prayed to God to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn’t. How is God good, then? Hmm?

  • (Student was silent)

  • Professor:

    You can’t answer, can you? Let’s start again, young fella. Is God good?

  • Student:

    Yes.

  • Professor:

    Is Satan good?

  • Student:

    No.

  • Professor:

    Where does Satan come from?

  • Student:

    From.. God.

  • Professor:

    That’s right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?

  • Student:

    Yes.

  • Professor:

    Evil is everywhere, isn’t it? And God did make everything. Correct?

  • Student:

    Yes.

  • Professor:

    So who created evil?

  • (Student didn’t answer)

  • Professor:

    Is there sickness? Immortality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don’t they?

  • Student:

    Yes, sir.

  • Professor:

    So, who created them?

  • (Student had no answer)

  • Professor:

    Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son.. have you ever seen God?

  • Student:

    No, sir.

  • Professor:

    Tell us if you have ever heard your God.

  • Student:

    No, sir.

  • Professor:

    Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God, for that matter?

  • Student:

    No, sir. I’m afraid I haven’t.

  • Professor:

    Yet you still believe in Him?

  • Student:

    Yes.

  • Professor:

    According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, Science says your God doesn’t exist. What do you say to that, son?

  • Student:

    Nothing. I only have my Faith.

  • Professor:

    Yes, Faith. And that is the problem Science has.

  • Student:

    Professor, is there such a thing as Heat?

  • Professor:

    Yes.

  • Student:

    And is there such a thing as Cold?

  • Professor:

    Yes.

  • Student:

    No, sir, there isn’t.

  • (The Lecture Theatre became very quiet with this turn of events)

  • Student:

    Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don’t have anything called cold. We can hit 458 Degrees below Zero which is no heat, but we can’t go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of Heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.

  • (There was a pon-drop silence in the Lecture Theatre)

  • Student:

    What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?

  • Professor:

    Yes. What is night if there isn’t darkness?

  • Student:

    You’re wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have Low Light, Normal Light, Bright Light, Flashing Light… But if you have No Light constantly, you have nothing and it’s called Darkness, isn’t it? In reality, darkness isn’t. If it is, You would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn’t you?

  • Professor:

    So what is the point you are making, young man?

  • Student:

    Sir, my point is, your Philosophical Premise is flawed.

  • Professor:

    Flawed? Can you explain how?

  • Student:

    Sir, you are working on the Premise of Duality. You argue there is Life and then there is Death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, Science can’t even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life, just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor, do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?

  • Professor:

    If you are referring to the Natural Evolutionary Process, yes of course, I do.

  • Student:

    Have you ever observed Evolution with your own eyes, sir?

  • (The professor shook his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument was going)

  • Student:

    Since no one has ever observed the Process of Evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a Scientist but a Preacher?

  • (The class was in uproar)

  • Student:

    Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor’s brain?

  • (The class broke out into laughter)

  • Student:

    Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor’s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? .. No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established Rules of Empirical, Stable and Demonstrable Protocol, Science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures?

  • (The room was silent. The Professor stared at the student, his face unfathomable)

  • Professor:

    I guess you’ll have to take them on Faith, son.

  • Student:

    That is it, sir.. exactly! The link between man and God is Faith. That is all that keeps things alive and moving!

  • The student's name was Albert Einstein. Brilliant.

  • I WILL ALWAYS REBLOG THIS.

  • This is brilliant!

my new obsession<3

Jesus Jesus - Noah Gunderson

Jesus, Jesus, could you tell me what the problem is
With the world and all the people in it?
Because I’ve been hearing stories about
the end of the world
But I’m in love with a girl and I don’t wanna leave her

And the television screams such hideous things
They’re talking about the war on the radio
They say the whole thing’s gonna blow
And we will all be left alone
No we’ll be dead and we won’t know what hit us

Jesus, Jesus, if you’re up there won’t you hear me
‘Cause I’ve been wondering if you’re listening
for quite a while

And Jesus, Jesus, it’s such a pretty place we live in
And I know we fucked it up, please be kind
Don’t let us go out like the dinosaurs
Or blown to bits in a third world war

There are a hundred different things I’d still like to do
I’d like to climb to the top of the Eiffel Tower
Look up from the ground at a meteor shower
And maybe even raise a family

Jesus, Jesus, there are those that say they love you
But they have treated me so God damn mean
And I know you said ‘forgive them for they
know not what they do’
But sometimes I think they do
And I think about you

If all the heathens burn in hell,
do all their children burn as well?
What about the Muslims and the gays
and the unwed mothers?

What about me and all my friends?
Are we all sinners if we sin?
Does it even matter in the end if we’re unhappy?

Jesus, Jesus, I’m still looking for answers
Though I know that I won’t find them here tonight
But Jesus, Jesus, could you call me if you have the time?
And maybe we could meet for coffee and work it out
And maybe then I’ll understand what it’s all about
