There will be no Buffy references in this Blog post, promise.
So I was at work this morning and you know what I've had reaffirmed? My deep hated for people. Now don't get me wrong, most are okay, passable as human beings, but others - particularry those who shop at Sainsburys on a Saturday morning - are evil soulless creatures.
Kinda like vampires... I'm sorry, I tried the no reference thing.
But I was having a very bad day any way. I was late to work (I told them it was traffic, really it was cause I pressed snooze on my alarm seven times before I actually got up) then I broke my till, which was technically not my fault because the scales went wonky and the till just hates me. The I get sprayed with Diet Fanta from the cans that my customer had quite cleverly pirced and thus, I smelt like sickly orange fruit fizz for the rest of the day.
Then I lost someones card by dropping it down the belt on the till and THEN I killed the baler outside that makes all the cardboard boxes into cardboard pages.
Except for the being late part, the rest was just because God chose today to start smiting me for my almost seventeen years of blasphamy. I suppose it had to start sometime, I'm just glad it was after my exams. Could you imagine? Half way through Biology explaining the Darwin theroy (which I didn't have to do, but this is my fantasy exam smiting scene so shush) and God appears before me all thunder and lightening.
Actually, how awesome would that be? I wonder what I'd say if I could speak to God, probably something along these lines:
"Nice starting the world with only two people and then making incest wrong, and also, the whole gay hating thing? Why create them if they are so wrong? And your devil dude, man grow up, all this testing of the Faith rubbish, do you have such little self esteem that you need to prove to yourself that your delusional followers are still you delusional followers?"
Of course I'm not condeeming people who believe in a religion. If you want to believe go ahead and believe, I think that a little bit of Faith (capitalised for another reference) is a good thing, y'know for the soul and shit.
But also, I would like to make one final statment: Religion is like a penis, it's okay to have one, it's okay to be proud of it, but please stop trying to shove it down my throat.

Keb Vs. Life 16/05/11
Do you know what makes me laugh? When people are stupid enough to click links on facebook that are quite obviously a virus. Like that new dislike button that's currently circulating. It's not REAL you dumb ass.
Anyway, rant for today: Religion
Einstein said: Religion without Science is lame, Science without Religion is blind.
Christians believe that people are made in the image of God and that we differ from animals because we have souls whereas animals don't. I don't believe this- some men don't have souls. When I said this to my Dad his reply was: I have souls, soles on the bottom of my shoes, and people who believe in God? Why, they're ar-souls.
It made me giggle I must admit. He dared me to write it in my exam tomorrow. Isn't he a great role-model?
The fact is. You can't logically argue with an illogical person, in this metaphor, science is logical, and religion is illogical. Okay yes it was used to explain the unexplainable but now we don't really need it because science does it for us. The only difference is there is actual proof for science.
My dad said religion causes poverty, because in like the middle ages or whatever a lot of money was put toward building churches and donating to the church. Then they would blame God when they had no food. Well clever people, if you hadn't given the money to build a large house then you could go buy grain and you wouldn't starve.
Despite it's name, common sense really isn't all that common.
Plus power corrupts and when you could only get the bible in Latin it's said that the Vicars/Priests/person would manipulate the people who could barely read English let alone Latin so they could pretty much make it all up and say whatever they liked.
If you've done GCSE history like I have you'll also see how much Religion has hindered the development of medicine. Imagine - without religion how much more advanced do you reckon you'd be? If you took away all the time it took for ideas to become accepted and use that time to develop better ideas. We could have been hundreds of years more advanced in medical knowledge.
The only good point to religion that I can see is that it nurtures hope and faith. Which aren't necessarily bad things.
And if my shoulder didn't really hurt and I was allowed my laptop for longer I would've written more but I has to go now.
Conclusion: Religion bad. Science good.
