Intelligence Vs. Religion

I am honestly caught between a almost....impossible to answer dilemma, I've come to realize that as your intelligence rises, your devotion to religion shrinks, it's as if it is impossible to be both religious AND smart I remember when I was younger I was lead by religion alone like a drone "we exist because god wants us to exist" but now.....I've grown to dislike religious zealots, How is it possible to believe that if god is indeed as kind and as loving as they make him out to be why is it that every religion is "wrong" besides Christianity or Catholicism for some reason because I don't believe in either of the upper religions I am going to burn for eternity? I don't quite agree with this....and The zealots aren't so loving either if you need proof simply ask them their opinion on gay marriage and relationships they'll reply "It's an abomination because bible passage yada yada yada" so am I right? do you have to be mentally dysfunctional to be a truly religious individual?

Religion and Money

Something happened this weekend that's got me so thrown that I can't help but sit in class and get the immense urge to..BLOG IT! Now then here's the situation, I work at Sedanos a supermarket near my school, I am a cashier so I'm fairly close to the entrance and see all sorts of people, Good people, bastards, assholes, cheap pricks that buy everything in the store and expect it to be under $20, but you get the idea here is what happened, it was an ordinary day nothing odd had happened so I was waiting for it to come (because something odd always has to happen at the supermarket) and a customer told me he did not want his crock pot cause he misread the price, now in Sedanos we're a bit behind in trust so a cashier cannot pull a Void, only a supervisor has the authority so I had to yell into the air "I need a void" and no supervisor was nearby so I was stuck in the time between when a supervisor comes to give the void and the end of my cashiering so I was basically getting a semi-free break, when all of a sudden a woman enters the super market and raises her hand yelling at the top of her lungs and says "I would like to make an announcement to all of you, that Jesus IS lord and he will help us through these dark times" I simply thought that she was a church goer and wanted to spread the word, freedom of speech to her I say, she then goes to the store and gets a few things comes to my register and begins to check out I then speak to her "Nice little announcement there" she said "I'm not really religious I just hope that repeating bible passages will get me some help paying the bills money is tight right now" I was stunned she was only acting religious and preaching out of greed and fear, I then began to ask myself how many more are there like her? I mean I'm no Zealot or die hard believer either but I wouldn't preach to a group of people unless I believed what I was saying so I am still trying to figure out why, people get more religious when their wallets start getting thinner and times get tougher?!

Exhaustion

Why do the things that bore you most and cause your eyes to become heavy always come at the worst possible time, such as when the instructor is giving a lecture to which he already passed out the entire power point, he's not putting his own words or examples he is reading the power point word for word and to top it all off no one responds on my IM client soon enough to call it a conversation so I'm floating between consciousness and passing out...someone help me...

My first bone to pick

This will be my first official rant since I created this account if this has, in your eyes, any organization at all or even a cohesive and constant topic, then you my friend should get a lobotomy so without further ado, I present my rant!


We as a nation are so incredibly censored and unable to trust an individual more than anything I have ever seen, no I am not referring to not being able to look at porn in school, I get the reasoning behind that no reason to be watching a "skin flick" in a place of learning, no my bone goes much farther than that surface, I am referring to the fact that nearly everything is blocked, Deviantart, youtube, download.com downloads, thousands upon thousands of websites blocked and this, for lack of a better term PISSES ME THE FUCK OFF, I mean in theory it worked a few years back when the web was all we had, but now, if I REALLY wanted to watch porn in school I could just load my flashdrive full and move about my day porn in hand, so what I don't get is why? why do they block the websites to upload videos and pictures? why do they block youtube, google video and such? to keep us busy? Pfft please I can just use a backdoor program like logmein, or even use a proxy server, I mean it's really just annoying because a lot of the times they actually end up blocking, something we NEED, such as download.com driver support and etc.

My second bone to pick is how we don't trust anyone of our own, we can't install anything on these computers because god forbid some IT guy from the school have to come in and run the recovery partition OH NO A COMPUTERS DOWN FOR AN HOUR OH GOD NO! sure, I mean block a few classes that don't know wtf they're doing but at least let the IT students roam free of the bull pen!

Well Vacation Was Fun

Well back from vacation not much has changed 'cept tomorrow I have to bring my laptop so everyone can pluck some things off me, the only thing that leaves me raising an eyebrow is that when you go from Hollywood or Sunrise Fl, to Sarasota...ALL THE WOMEN'S ASSES AND CHI CHI'S DISAPPEAR! they look flat as a board HOW?! IT'S A BEACH FOR GOD SAKES! -sigh- now what that's done, I'm going to plan how to download porn on my schools computer (Damien will get the joke)

Well thats kind of awesome

Well my whole class pretty much failed a test that was given out tuesday and the teacher graded em gave us the answers handed them back with another test with the same questions in the same order CHEATING FTW!

Same Dog Different Collar

I hate the monotony and routine I've gotten used to its abominably boring and it's no wonder when someone goes on vacation they take forever to get back up and running it's such a dismal routine, wake up, shower, get dressed, sit in the car for a half hour, go to school, learn a lesson go to lunch, come back and do nothing or chat or fix a computer, walk to work, work until 11:00 pm, go home play WoW for a half hour go to bed and repeat, sure every now and then there's a change but it's always the same shit, It's why I am glad I have friends, they are what gets me by the routine, with humor and their mannerisms I honestly couldn't have asked for better friend. Now then I'm done with the early morning sap story, I'm gonna post again as soon as I have a reason to I just wanted to get something off my chest
