Wow! It sure has been a while! How are you? Also Happy Easter, Spring Equinox, Zombie Day, whatever your choice of holiday words are... have a happy day. Since I have last posted I have graduated, gotten married, moved to Colorado, and all that fun jazz. I'm now a preschool teacher, how nice is that? The kids are great and I'm the only person in the place hat speaks fluent english, so the parents are relieved. I had a couple tell me they're just happy someone can spell their childs name correctly. Anyways, enough catching up, on to business as usual...
With this oh so wonderful holiday season upon us, I felt a confession on my part should be said. A true, deep, religious confession. Here goes.... I don't believe in God, and never really have. Whew! That was a load off my chest! Now usually I keep this to myself not because I'm ashamed or anything, but because I fucking believe that your beliefs are YOUR BELIEFS!!!! Nobody asks you what you believe without either wanting to sit and talk about how your sooo much alike, or wanting to convert you to their insane, messed up world of rules that are sometimes followed and sometimes not. Homosexuals are bad because the bible says so... but we don't follow the rules of killing a woman who is not a virgin before marriage anymore. That's barbaric. So, what constitutes a rule that should be followed and a rule that's not followed? Who the hell decides these things!? But you know what, what you choose to believe is what YOU choose to believe. Whether or not I agree with it is none nobody's business but my own and I know how to keep my mouth shut and smile and nod.
Why can't everyone just simple keep their beliefs to themselves? Like I said, it's your beliefs, not mine. I don't want your beliefs, so there is a reason I do not have them. So for God/Jehova/Flying Spaghetti Monster/Zeus/Whoever's sake... shut your Goddamn mouth! Quit telling me I am going to hell, quit telling me I am a heathen, quit telling me I am demon possessed (that was an interesting discussion), quit telling me that my personal beliefs are stopping you from exercising your religious freedoms. You know what? Nothing I do ever has any effect on what you do, so just leave me alone to do whatever I want and you go do whatever you want. At the end of the day, nothing changes and the sun rises again. Surprise. No eternal hellfire sprouting from the earth to claim this so called lost child and what not.
So todays Bird goes to mouthy Christians that try to shove their beliefs down peoples throats that don't want them. Just go to church with all your other Christian buddies and when you leave to live your life of sin once again, you can find me at the bar with an empty chair beside me for you to get trashed in... just like always.
Also, stay out of my Harry Potter books... they teach witchcraft as much as Lord of the Rings teaches sword fighting...
