We Are All Very Confused Children
I was sitting on the bus today and was thinking about how everyone seems to be looking for something. And once you find whatever you were looking for, there is always something else that you need to find. So if you spend your whole life searching, then you'll never miss anything right? If only it could be that simple. There are so many people searching that it is impossible to find anything or anyone because we are all looking for different things. It's commotion. Right now for example, I'm trying to find my train of thought. Wait... there found it again. See, you find things and you keep searching. For what? It depends. Answers to questions that make no sense, a reason, an idea, an inspiration or even a clue. No matter what happens you just might never find what you are looking for. It's a leap of faith actually. For me, it's more like I leap just because that's what everyone has done before me. Screw faith. Faith just fills your head with bull shit. There is no such thing as a leap of faith. Faith is not courage, it's false information. You're jumping off a bridge, killing everything, not leaping with your eyes closed into the unknown. Try finding reasons for faith's answers. Wait now I see, it's called a leap of faith because you have to be so out of your mind and full of shit to actually believe that searching will help you find anything. So, there it is. I have no idea where I am. Why don't you take a leap of faith. Maybe you'll find me.

Einstein's Opinion Revealed

Renowned scientist Albert Einstein dismissed the Bible as a collection of “pretty childish” legends and belief in God as a “product of human weaknesses,” according to a letter to be auctioned this week.
My comments:
I was not surprised to hear this since, Einstein had a brilliant mind that could come to its own conclusions about life. If your choice is the bible, after obvious consideration, then great. But, as an atheist or a non-believer I can see that the bible started as a good idea, but was taken too literally. A book that passed on the story of a man who did great things. The people who wrote it probably had no idea that others would eventually criticize it. But, most religions are outdated and overly worshiped to a dangerous extent. The rules were designed to maintain control over a vast number of people, to make sure that morals were being passed on and that if you did bad things then you would burn in Hell for all eternity. The fact is that some take religion too seriously and need to realize that God was created in a book, he is not the creator. Have you ever wondered why God only existed once "man" started to walk on the earth or why is it that other animals do not have gods? Maybe they are smarter than us and God is just our way to easily control the outcome of the ever-changing world. We are just children trying to stop from growing up. Because you have to admit...there is nothing worse that realizing that all that you have been taught is a ploy to persuade a mast majority into following a God that does not exist. Religion is a last ditch measure used as a obstacle to prevent people's rights from being met. For example, where in the bible does it say to hate homosexuals, capture slaves, ostracize people who do not believe in god or devalue women. These problems are all the result of people looking too far into a religion that is based hundreds of years in the past. The bible is just a bunch of old mens' attempt to pass on their twisted beliefs to an easily persuaded future generation. And the sad part is that they have, but we are slowly but surely fighting back a ghost that refuses to leave. It's time for us to follow in Einstein's footstep and come to our own conclusions. It's time for us to think for ourselves.
