A letter to the Christians

Dear Christians,

Keep your scripture in mind as you watch your westernized television. A few of your fellow brothers and sisters in Christ are using the same tactics as those they labeled as terrorists not too long ago. Do you need a slap in the face from the same God you serve? Perhaps not. Maybe you are partially sane. But if you are failing to see the radical disconnect between the actions of the few modern American Christian terrorists and the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, yes, you need a divine slap from the Holy Trinity of which you speak so highly.

Bible lesson time! :D (If you don’t know, I used to attempt to teach this stuff…so I would sort of know)…

First, Matthew 24:36-44.

36) No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

37) As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.

38) For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark;

39) and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.

40) Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left.

41) Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.

42) Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.

43) But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.

44) So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

Now Mark 13:32-37.

32) No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

33) Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come.

34) It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with his assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.

35) Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn.

36) If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping.

37) What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’

Now Luke 17:26-30, 34-36

26) And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

27) They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

28) Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;

29) But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

30) Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

34) I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed; one will be taken and the other left.

35) Two women will be grinding grain together; one will be taken and the other left.

36) Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left.

Basically, no matter what any Christian Warrior does, any sort of god will not come to save everyone any faster than what it was originally planning. …There will simply be a few corpses and a glob of unsatisfied Christians lying around wondering why they haven’t ascended into the clouds to the beaconing sounds of trumpets.

If you think Sarah Palin is any credible source of anything, remember that she is a manipulative pile of makeup whose attractiveness will only ever go to uselessness since her religion condemns lust. Nothing of inspiration is possible from her mouth other than dangerous incite for the incitable swine. The sausage that the televised conservative Christians are claiming to brandish is not the same size as the penis in their pants. There may be many of them, but not nearly enough to accomplish an overthrowing of the American government – a truly beautiful system that has been masked by the ugly stench of conservative agenda.

If you want to be true Americans, how about accepting everybody, chilling the fuck out, and realizing that health care reform is not going to lead to Armageddon or Christian persecution. If a god exists, I’m sure it will have its way with all the baby-aborting aborters inside of those pearly gates. Start worrying less about others and start accepting people for who they are. Not everyone cares about an afterlife. I sure as hell don’t.

A small digression about the beauty and limited pliability of a human mind and body

I am actually happy after reading an article from an American news source. The article itself does not matter but its core idea does: Fortunately, a human will only ever be human.

In its lifetime, the human will never aspire to anything better than a human. Hardest it tries, any human is just as susceptible as any other to an inevitable succumbence of life in the case of failing to find itself a sufficient amount of food or water. This is the beauty and the tragedy of life.

Emotions work similarly, I believe. In suggesting this I propose that they, even of those in positions of corrupt authority, can only take so much systematism before they snap. After a certain point, one can only suppress so many emotions before the pent-up feelings begin to leak from physical orifice. Forcing all potential escape routes closed in an attempt to trap the emotions seems like it can lead to a breakdown. This is also beautiful about the human.

My point is this: From the things I have read so far, modern westernized society seems to often want to build a machine or a system to plow through the many various roadblocks of development. When humans are assigned a place within system or control of a machine, the operator is not as capable as the function of the entire machine, otherwise why build the machine?

This small idea means that humans can and will break. Workers in corrupt authority will probably at some point break down. If not in public, the breakdown will likely occur in the privacy of itself. For now, the sensitivity of humanity is the immutable switch that will unfortunately put a certain amount potential of failure on every effort. However, this unfortunate condition is also one of the most valuable assets to all of us because it signifies that people can only be swept (or sweep others) under the rug for so long before dispute erupts.

In the situation that conflict erupts, my hope is that people find non-violent methods of solving disputes. It is possible, and this is also the beauty of humanity: choice in action; autonomy.

Traffic has me baffled

On my way to work this morning, I noticed something about traffic. So much of the driving experience depends on the car directly in front of you, however, when there is a problem or delay on the road, how rarely it is the fault of the car directly in front of you. How can something be so faultless yet so influential to the outcome of events?

This blows my mind. I am going to give this more thought.
