Religion Rant

Sun Nov 1, 2009, 8:08 AM
Yes, my first journal entry into my journal on her and it is a rant. You can leave feed back on what you think of my thoughts. Or just ignore it altogether.

What is it that lies deep within us that show us what faith is? Is it a man, a God or self choice? Religion is one of the major things in people’s lives today. It is up there next to the political problems in this world. Yet it should be nowhere near that point. Does anyone truly know what it is to be religious anymore? Or has the mass media and Dumbfounded dipshit clouded it all?

No, I am not talking about all religions, because not all have lost judgment of their faith really is. For who knows how long, the people of this world have turned some religions into nothing more than a sickening joke. Christianity, Cathology(I know it is not real but I am talking about Catholics.), Mormons, ect. These religions have become nothing more than FAKE!

Let us start out with start with the bible. I am no genus but people who believe everything the bible says, has to be fucking RETARDED! Jesus Christ, what was the number one drink in those times? It was fucking wine; even Jesus Christ himself turned Water into fucking wine! So, the man, the son of God himself, takes perfectly good none alcoholic water and turns it into a poison so to speak. Wait to go, there is an accomplishment. The bible is nothing but a bunch of stories written by drunken men. Yes each story has a god damn moral to it. But some, let’s make that most of the people who follow the bible misinterpret the wording and means of the stories. Not only that, let us take into remembrance that we went through the Roman Times. Where the Roman’s raped and modified the bible as they see fit.

So now your dumbasses have been following the stories a modified bible that was modified by one of the greediest, power hungry people in the world the Romans. Now take that and the, oh so many years of it being tossed around and translated and re-translated, you all are so totally fucked. If it is one thing that has been proven throughout life, even the smartest human’s fuck up 3 out of 5 times, take that and look at the bible you might as well just go nuts.

Now to top this off, you all seem to think you have to a church, this so called “House of God” or “House of Worship”. Don’t get me wrong, yes it is nice to have other people around to have faith with. But to have one man stand up before you in a building and tell you he is a messenger from God? That’s a little extreme. A messenger of God, are you fucking kidding me? But that is to come later. Now back to the building, a church is nothing more than a building, that’s it. You do not need a fucking gathering in a building to worship. You can worship god from your own home, you can pray, you can show your love for your God from anywhere. It does not need to be in a building, it can be out in nature, or at work. It is not like your God is just looking down upon that one church.

Now we will move on to the man I touched on earlier. The preacher, pastor, or whatever you want to call him. The one man who seems to think his interpretation of the bible is true and correct, the man that feeds you the bullshit; the man who tells you his meaning of passages in the bible; maybe I am crazy, but since when should we trust the word of any one person. Let us think on whom this person is, usually a male, older in years and proclaimed to be wise. Well, what has the world taught us of those people who are “wise”? Well for me it has taught me that those people usually and always mess up the most.

Also you are told by this very same man that God asks you to give money. Last I heard it was 10% of your monthly salary every month. So let me get this straight, if I am making a 1,000 dollars a month, then I have to give “God” 100 dollars of that. Are you fucking crazy? What the hell does God need money for? Is God just greedy and like to hoard the money? No, see most religions have become nothing but the world’s biggest money scam, but yet they get away with it constantly and you all allow it to happen. You got to their false sanctuary, you listen to a man preach broken down words and eat it up. Then when that stupid little plate is passed around, you drop, money and checks into that plate. But where does all that money go after. Those checks have to be cashed by someone. It goes into the so called “Man of Gods” pocket. Don’t believe me? I will prove it.

A few years back I used to go to church with my mom, the Preacher there, “used” to have a gambling problem before he became a “Man of God”. Well, the man was caught gambling all that money you give to him away. Then used it to throw a huge party for his son, and bought him a brand new car. That guy for a living worked at a store, not saying which. But his salary was not that good. So there is a prime example of where your money is going. God doesn’t money, he is God. Next time you are told God needs your money, Laugh. If I am going to give my money away, I will pledge 10% of my monthly income to a charity that really needs it. Because that is what God wants to see, people help others.

God does not care if you are in church or if you are taking in what that man or woman is saying. Here is what your God would really care about. Reaching out a hand to help those in need, praying, having faith and showing love and caring to those who mean something to you; not money. Not like he can have possessions. And to proclaim a war in God’s name, that is surely not going to get you anywhere.

But Religion has lost sight of what it should be and has became the money scam that it is today, one that can get away with it. And how do you know money speaks loud in religion just look around you. The man with the money has the power. Last time I heard, that when a group of people get together and create their own religion it was considered a cult. Yet L. Ron Hubbard, started a religion known as Scientology. And how did he do it, by having money. And it is one of the biggest money scams in religious history. Scientology is not a religion it is the biggest cult in the world.

It was time this was all said, whether people want to hear it or not. I am expressing how I feel on this matter. But like I said not all religions are money scamming bastard. I am myself am Wiccan and we do not need a church to worship. We prefer nature. It is natural and has many healing powers. We do not need money for the things in nature. And I am sure there are many other religions in the world that do not look for money.

Last I would like to talk about those religions who find it a need to go door to door and push your fucking religion on other people. Pushing your religion on people will get you nowhere and it is kind of violating a law or something isn’t it. We all have the right to free choice in the matter of religion, yet some religions seem to think it is good to push their beliefs on myself. How would you like it if I came to your door trying to force you to buy what I am trying to sale? I bet it would get annoying to you. And this also goes for those people who find it a need to go into publish restrooms and leave little god damned pamphlets in there with “The word of God” and it has a passage from your bible. If I am not your religion, why would I want to read an expert from your bible? Yet again another form of pushing your religion.

So what did we learn today children? Say it with me now. “We learned that God and worship is good. But we do not need to be told how to worship and we do not need a church to do so. We also learn that Religion has become nothing but the world biggest money scam.” Good boy and girls now let not forget this and let’s bring back what religion should truly be.

I am a 24 year old Graphic Design student. I love to toy around in photoshop. I am currently using Photoshop CS4 Extended.

I am also a writer and poet. I love to roleplay and do it as often as possible. I can not draw all that great, maybe one day I will post up an example, who knows. But for now, I do alot of editing in photoshop to other DA member's pictures with their permission. I do not just up and take peoples pictures without their permission, that is wrong and could get you in alot of trouble. Not to mention people spend a lot of time on the things they post here and it would be highly rude to edit something without their permission.
