I get frustrated when trying to talk reason to the staunchly-unreasonable, especially when the ‘said unreasonable individual insists that you yourself are being unreasonable - moments before they assert their supposed infallibility, thus proving the fact that they are beyond question, inquiry, comparison or reproach and thus beyond reasoning.
A pretty fawesome remix of the brilliant Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” - originally from “The Good The Bad And The Ugly” (1966) fame.
Personally I think the idea of a heaven and hell is stupid. They are polar extremes, and polar extremes in humans are practically non-existent. The idea that you have to live a wholly sin-free life or face eternal damnation for the slightest deviation is retarded.
Think of it this way: it would be like if they gave $50000 in cold-hard to people at age 50 if they never committed a single felony in their entire lives up until that point, but if you did any crime whatsoever;no matter how innocuous; you’d have your legs amputated without anaesthetic. So when you think about it, you could get a speeding ticket or you could arse-rape a toddler, and the outcome would be the same anyway. Unless of course you are insane enough to coast through life without making a single mistake or giving in to a single temptation or vice.
If you think this sounds crazy when viewed through the lens of western law, reflect for a moment that most of the world considers the above-logic to be the one-true celestial law that governs all things.
Don’t ever pity me, though my soul be damned.

So I’m now on Tumblr. I have an Avian in the grass to thank for this fact.
It’s 3:59AM.
I think this page will be a fantastic way to cultivate a sense of personal accountability…
WOW MY FIRST POST SUCKS. And here I was, trying to scribe something witty and intellectually stimulating. I disappoint myself.
It’s 4:05AM.
Goodnight World.
