Religion...
Has fucked up so many things since Christianity came into power.
Don't get me wrong. I believe in da man Jesus (yes he actually lived) but the message of the bible was written by those who did not have the facts all there. Written from a man's perspective too which means it's gonna make some people very very angry.
I have not read the Bible. I just couldn't get past the first page. Yes, maybe a God did create the heavens (universe) but he did NOT create Earth on that first day. Or the SUN after the Earth. That's where I just cannot stomach the rest...
It'd be different if da man (Jesus) actually wrote something which people KNEW was from the mouth of Jesus.... The book was written after the star had left the playing field. There was no TV to cover the story. Just some dude who heard from another person that "it was so" so it had to be that way because "he" said it was true... A bit like the South Park episode in which the guys absolutely ROAST that Mormon dude with the magical seeing stones. Very funny indeed by the way...
This world has seen nothing but suffering the day Jesus left the scene...
And it ISNT good. It's fucked up. FUBAR in fact.
I would have loved to hear da man speak. Maybe when I die I will have the privilege of shaking his hand and looking into his eyes.... seeing the pain that he saw. And that I see today.... In every aspect of life.
We (as a people) are on the precipice... Which way we go from here is left to those who stil have free will left in them. Not braindead sheep concerned with who's sleeping with whom and which celebrity has gone off the deep end or died (MJ).
The human race NEEDS to evolve here... Or else we are fucked. End of story.
"And he put down his flaming sword and went among the people and listened to their worries and pains. And he wept for them knowing that within these people they cried for a saviour to come and make things right again"
The book of Benjamin (Chapter and Verse unknown)
