Climbing Golgotha

Hell is to be cursed with a linear mind while being trapped in a non-linear world, and surrounded by people who are all convinced that despite this difference, they have used the one to successfully decipher the meaning of the other.

It is precisely this difference, however, that serves as the fatal flaw to all true understanding.

For the bedrock of all opinion and "belief," all religions and ideas, is an infinite amount of ignorance that we are forced of necessity to always minimize or simply deny, so that we may focus instead on the few ambiguous pieces of information that we are as confident as the pope, will grant us a near infallible understanding of all we survey, and especially the divine mind of God.

And any attempt to point this out to all those who depend on their ideas to define their identity is to be as cursed as Sisyphus climbing Golgotha.

Why Christianity is More Unnatural Than Homosexuality

I grew up in a family that is about as homophobic as Phil Robertson and the Westboro Baptists, only they're not quite as boisterous about it; at least not in public anyway. They have also conveniently convinced themselves  that their homophobia is really just their unique Christian ability to "hate the sin, but love the sinner" (even though these very same Christians adamantly refuse to accept that people can "hate Christianity, but love the Christian").  The sexual superiority complex necessarily relied on by such Christians is, of course, blanketed beneath the lambs wool of the Christian humility of serving "God."

And the only thing such Christians are more sure about than that their own personal version of "God" exists, is that such a "God" would never want people to be homosexual - no matter how ma...

Why Are Republicans Pro Life?

Most people don't realize that the Supreme Court has been in the hands of the Republican party since at least 1970! In fact, even in the landmark case of Roe v Wade that legalized abortion, SCOTUS was inhabited by 6 Republicans and 3 Democrats, and the vote was 7 to 2. One of the reasons is that the Republican Party has absolutely ZERO desire to win on the abortion issue. And that's because abortion gives the GOP a clear focal point with potentially unlimited organizing power. And it's an even simpler message to sell than religion, since we are "pro-life." (if that was true, however, they wouldn't be actively trying to repeal healthcare for up to 30 million Americans, nor would they be so pro-gun, pro-war, pro-death penalty, pro welfare cuts, pro- social security cuts, pro- drone strikes, etc). The Republican party officially became "pro-life" in 1976, thanks to Jesse Helms (R-NC). The only reason no serious challenge was brought within the pa...
