Imagine that you are put in a separate school from every one you know. You are taught everything from math and science to history and art. You attend a separate college as well and get a degree. Now you are put into the world for the first time. You know everything a normal person would know except for some few differences. Every color as we know it has been taught to you differently, so has every number, and articles of clothing. For you green is yellow, blue is red, black is white, two is four, six is nine. Would you be able to re learn the correct things or would you go into some sort of shell because your brain couldn’t take the confusion. How would a person like this survive their first day in a world where they are alone in what they perceive with the exception of some crazies?
This is question that was asked in my sister's psychology class. And it sort of hit a spark in me. I got to thinking what if we could take people and teach them things to make them better people. Take away Racism, Homophobia, and Anti-Semitism. We could re educate the whole population. Of course we would have to destroy the bible…which should have been done a long time ago. It has only led to discrimination and hunts of “devil worshipers”. The bible is a story book on the morals of one person who may or may not have existed. And yet we follow them absolutely. We hate and judge others for no reason other than “it’s in the bible” and it “says too.” Well FUCK YOU!!!! Now I am not saying there is not any good that can come from the bible. But we cannot know where this book came from and I have trouble believing in something that comes from a book. If I where to go back in time and switch out the story of Jonah and the whale and switch it with Pinocchio, you would believe it to be true if it was in your precious bible
Some of you are thinking that I am going to go to hell for what I have said in this blog. Well I don’t believe in hell. And following you logic of believing in a book that must all be true, then if I don’t believe then it must not be true. It is not a bad thing to have faith or look for something to guide you and that’s all the bible is. It is a guide book on how one man thought YOU should live your life if you want to go to heaven. But I have my own thoughts on how to be a good person and that doesn’t involve people getting stoned for not being virgins before marriage.
dude this blog is amazing. as bad as it sounds, you're right. i'm really happy you have your own views on things and i love how you put them out there for everyone to read.
