I am at the mercy of the universe

2 comments | posted Feb 6

 

How dare I stare into the eyes of the universe when the infinite darkness between the stars can swallow me whole in just one glance and when reflecting on time my consciousness is raised yet suffocated at the thought that I exist in just a fraction of a speck of time's infiniteness?

Evil does not exist

1 comment | posted Jan 25

 

I understand the term "evil" as being analogous to "bad" in that it is a human construct or concept that is relative to and dependant on that in which a human perceives as "good." Good and evil are simply the results of one's discrimination between this and that and are in relation to how one thinks things "ought" to be. So it is my observation that evil does not exist in form, only in concept.

Avoiding a backwards mentality

1 comment | posted Jan 23

 

I have been hearing a lot of what seems like backwards mentality to me lately, like, "I am a Christian therefore I believe in..." instead of "I believe in...therefore I am a Christian." or, "I am an atheist; therefore I do not believe that a god exists." Instead of, "I don't believe that god exists, therefore I am an atheist."...

Something other than love

post a comment | posted Jan 19

 

Why do you speak of "true love" when you can just speak of "love?" When speaking of "love," It is understood that love is true, for if it is not true, then it is not really "love." And if you must insist on speaking of "true love," and at other times just "love," then I shall have no other choice but to reason that when you speak of just "love," it must be something other than love.

The subjects of my love

post a comment | posted Jan 17

 

Love is such an easy subject to be difficult. I often feel like I love everything equally. But then is it really love? For there is no contrast to distinguish it. To know love, mustn't you know it's contrast, it's opposite? Perhaps just knowing the opposite is enough to define love without having to hold it's opposite. Some say there are shades of love like there are shades of gray, but I try not to discriminate between the shades, or the subjects of my love.

It's always your turn

post a comment | posted Jan 16

 

Don't let anyone tell you it's not your turn. Because when it's not your turn, it's obviously your turn for it to not be your turn. It's always your turn for something. So when it is your turn which it always is, play well.

Everyone writes for themselves

1 comment | posted Jan 15

 

I am convinced that everyone writes for themselves. Even if they write for others, they are writing for others for themselves. That's right, our motives are intrinsically selfish. If you are one who says that you write for others, you do so to please your readers, but pleasing your readers pleases you.

post a comment | posted Jan 14

 

I came across an article over the weekend which talks about how christians claim that atheists must have as much faith in the big bang theory as creationist do in an omnipotent creator. The following is my reaction to that claim...

Revenge

1 comment | posted Jan 11

 

The relentless wrath of revenge revolves a rage remarkably reasonless. Each side tied to stride inside an eye for an eye however unjustified. Lies disguise this senseless mess, an infinite regress, obsessed to penalize. Victims vandalize and violate virtues guide when they too, victimize.
