jesus camp. let’s welcome all the fanatics.
Monday, December 31st, 2007i’m watching “jesus camp” on television. these people are the most insane christians ever. fundamentalism for the lose. i am terrified of this country.
this movie and the events of the past week remind me that i can never ever be christian again. i don’t care if you’re christian if you don’t want to infringe on the rights and thoughts of others with your christianity. don’t christians get it? god gives people free wills so they can choose. don’t like that muslim neighbor of yours? get the fuck over it. god isn’t forcing them to be christian, so you shouldn’t force them to be christian either.
it’s so easy to praise the lord when things are going well but so difficult to point out the bad. this is and will always be the case with religion.
i am not so vain as to say god does not exist, because i don’t believe it. nor do i believe that god does exist. i just don’t give a fuck. not at all. you’re not going to know either way. faith in athiesm or in god are both blind. so………. i think i will just go with the flow until something or someone proves to me otherwise. and if they do, maybe i’ll think about changing my mind. but for now… these things are of no concern to me. i think what’s more important is making positive change in the *tangible* world through love and compassion and not through bigotry and repression. no thank you.
this country is terrifying. i wish to move. i don’t know where to move to, though. jeanette is moving to london. europe is too expensive. maybe mexico. hah.
