I've told you so many times... Man does not have the ability to rule himself sucessfully. Why do you think he has a grasp on the other things?

Total chaos all around and I'm hearing, "he knows things". Wrong!!


What bizarre kind of logic is this? TOTAL chaos? Again, this is just emotional hyperbole. The vast majority of humans are born, mate, raise families, all successfully. Very few are involved in war or genocide. That is what makes it news! The world has always had these prophets of doom. And guess what, it has never happened. Amazing, just amazing! Here we are doing all kinds of things the religious nuts are telling are wrong and we are doing such a bad job at ruling ourselves, that it is self-evident to them at least, that god or the bogey-man, etc., will have to step in. Well…… were waiting. Bring it on! What we haven’t waited long enough? You mean, WW I, WW II, Uncle Ho, Stalin, Hitler, and on and on back as far as we can see (10,000 years of recorded human history). All of this wasn’t enough? Jeez, talk about having a non-event as the bases of your argument. What evidence can you bring that this is true? That this will happen? That this is any more than a fairy tale? Because it’s in the bible? Please refer back to the scientific process.
Many of you will not like my tone. You feel I should be more respectful of others beliefs or faith. Why? I do this to children who have not yet developed the emotional control that they should have when they are adults. Why do you still need this type of coddling?
You cannot have both ways. When you try using logic and science you utterly fail, yet when logic and science are used to show you the emptiness of your emotional diatribes, you shout about “lack of respect” and “bashing”. I do not suffer fools gladly. I for one am totally against using any religious beliefs as a foundation to public policy, ever. You may believe whatever you want. But do not expect me or anyone to bend to your will. Stop whining about it. Stop trying to change public education to your particular religious belief. (You complain quite vocally when other religions try to do the same, like the Muslims in there on countries). Stop trying to promote your bigotry against minorities of all types. You may live your life as you see fit. This right extends to the rest of us. I will write, publish, film, act, say and do as my intellect moves me to. I will not censor my words, deeds or thoughts to appease some followers of myths and fairytales.
I freely admit that I, nor science, have all the answers. That is why we keep questioning and searching for them. I, for one, do not have the emotional need to have someone or something provide the answers to me. I enjoy looking and searching for the answers myself. I question everything. I want to understand, to the best of my abilities, how everything works. I read everything I can get my hands on. I compare and contrast different viewpoints and versions of everything. I take very little on faith. I am always willing to change the current working version, when repeatable evidence is presented.
