Here we are at big old posting numero 12! hooray and huzzah's all around. Not much new in todays life of Yurko, other than ive decided that xboxes go senile after a certain amount of time. THis is due to the fact that after 3 hours of trying to get my friend chris's xbox to accept the fact that an xbox game disc was IN FACT an xbox game disc! Same goes for DVD's and such, so it is my theory that once an xbox goes senile that all it accepts are radiocativly powered cookies. hmm yes well anyways, ive decided that now utilising my christmas money i must get the journey greatest hits dvd, yes i know im a loser but hey i like the music so all of you can go suck eggs.
Hrmm what else to talk about. Currently reading this Self help book for a calculus bonus project. the system and ideas in the book itself arent all bad but the one thing that i dont like is the authors bible thumping pro christianity stance on pretty much anything and everything. Considering that at every chance this guy gets its something about god, or how homosexuality is a disease, or austin powers is evil. This just brings up an addon to stuff that pisses me off. Basically religion is a good thing when you take it as a route of personal discovery type dealie. But the moment that someone starts to preach on others how their religion is great, etc etc, your wrong etc etc, then that pisses me off. Now thats not to say that im not a semi religious person , i do go to church and i do believe that their is a god and such but for me i think that its stupid to try to shove whatever your belief system is down the throats of others. This system of Im right and everyone else can burn in hell is what has caused a hell of alot of wars in our planets history. From the crusades to a lesser extent world war 2 and the current problems in the middle east, all of this was caused by religion. now i know that their were other reasons why the crusades and world war 2 took place but in both times religion was used as a nice easy excuse or rational for bloodshed. Now the last time that i checked nowhere in the bible does it say that "thou shalt hacketh down anyone who doesnt belivith in me". its more along the lines of brotherly love and junk like that. Take for example the whole middle east problem, If you look at the isralies and the palistineans genetically there basically the same people. all from the same region, same ancsetors etc. But because theyve grown up thinking that anyone whos not a follower of said religion should die that they fight each other. What i dont get is that if they all just shut up, worked together and did something that area would be a pretty prosperous place but nooo theyve got to focus on killing the heathens and crap.
But yeah back to what i was saying, is that bible thumpers also piss me off. what makes me mad about them is the fact that they seem to think that its their right and design in life to shove their belief system down the throats of eveyone around them, wheter they like it or not. And then they take such a fundamentalist approach to the bible that its just sad. Yes i admit that the theory of evolution isnt altogether perfect but it makes a hell of alot more sense that just God came, plopped down a bunch of animals and all was happy. hmm so all the research done by thousands of scientists all across the globe is false just because this book which was written based of stores that were passed down says so. Now im not saying that the bibles totally wrong etc but it makes much more sense when you think of the stories in it as being the best way that God could express what happend to the uneducated folk of old
hmm yes well thats getting slightly to philisophical so anywho. Manly im pissed at how these funamentalists seem to think that its ok to show prejudice to other groups and say its ok because they can hide behind the bible. So if your a nazi spreading hate its not ok but if your a bible thumper whos bashing gays its ok cause youve got the bible on your side. Last time i checked prejudice is wrong no matter what the reason so people like this shouldnt be allowed to insult or bash those who dont fit their set belief system just because its ok "according" to the bible.
hmm yes that kinda ran out of steam and didnt come out exactaly as i had planned it to but hey im to lazy to edit so thats how it will stand.
yeah well im done, had some other stuff to say but i currently cant think of a good way to express it so i shalt end this now and may death come to you and yours (hehe silly morbo (futurama))
The amazing boring, yurko
