   long time, no post...

DS Time - 6:43 AM the official first day of spring...and it snowed. hehe, gotta love the weather in the mid-west. nothing worthy to close school and the snow melted by the afternoon. either way I didn't have class so I didn't have to deal with it. the week's been ok so far, I guess. I don't know, something about Monday. seemed like half the campus just got up, looked outside, saw that it was raining, and said "Fuck it, I'm going back to bed." it was nice and quite for once. don't count on many more days of that. this is college after all, where most exams are based on lectures given by the professors. what the hell is the point of text books then if we're just going to be tested on what comes out your mouth? shiet, save me some money so that I can use it to pay my tuition. but enough of that. to the matter concerning the subject of this post. Monday morning while I was waiting for my carpool to come, I managed to catch Good Morning America as they were discussing this funeral protesting that seems to be going on. apparently, this small church is going around to funerals for soldiers who have been killed in Iraq protesting with signs and crap. but get this, they're not protesting about the war. they're protesting about the gays of the world. it is their belief that these brave soldiers died because of our acceptance of the homosexual citizens of the populace. -sighs- where do I begin? and pplz wonder why I make fun of the religious deities all the time. it's because their followers always pull this kind of crap. "I do this in the name of _________". BULL SHIT! I don't know about all of you, but it is my belief that the almighty beings that reside up there only want peace. the only thing these so called "religious freaks" are doing is creating more unnecessary conflict. and to those idiotic protestors, if God was so against homosexuality, why would he allow it to carry on? isn't he all powerful? wouldn't he have the power to take care of the problem himself instead of letting his "minions" take care of it for him? he supposedly created the universe in a week so don't you think he'd be able to take care of a small number of people on this measily planet called Earth? whatever. makes me glad to say I'm a Buddhist. sure I don't know much about the religion and I'm a very bad example of one [they're pacifists and I...get violent on occasion] but at least they don't persecute others for having a different belief system [at least I hope not]. makes me wonder why Christianity is so popular when it's the center of most of the wars that have been waged in the history of mankind. all that these stupid "Holy Wars" do is promote more hatred. I'm starting to think Ryoko-sama had a good idea when she decided to become an atheist. PS. this is why I don't like talking about religion... -huggums- I love Ren & Hao. What about you?
