This rant is inspired by AshleyBenlove's revelation that she believes God exists because ... she believes God exists.
Now, when you take that statement (God exists because someone believes it to be so) to its logical conclusion, you get some very hubristic, suprising, and shocking results: the believer, as the cause of the God existense, is, in at least once sense, higher than God, and in any case, since God is the creator of all, the believer is in fact the source of all existence, since God is the creator of everything. Of course, this begs some interesting following questions: Since the very existence of the highest thing - God - is in the control of the believer, does this mean the believer has control over lesser things, like the universe and the weather? What existed before the believer had the chance to believe God into existence? Should the believer be a servant of God, or should God be a servant of the believer?
Now, I doubt that the holders of these opinions (such as Ashley, the character in South Park who muttered the opinion, or the writer(s) behind the episode) actually believe themselves to be the creator of all existence, to be higher than God, and whatnot. Rather, I believe their thinking is an offshoot of the relativism so popular these days - the notion that something can be "true for me" but not "true for you" vice versa, and so on. This belief, which takes tolerance to inordinate if not psychotic heights - denies objective reality, which cannot be denied, as it is in objective reality that we all interact with each other.
I'd write more, but I have to go.

Moronic survivalists who are moving to the wilderness, and stocking up on food, and guns because they think the world will soon end.
These idiots are the same ones who thought that Y2K would end the world, and as we all know the world did not end, it did not end then, and it is highly unlikely that it will end now.
So to all you survivalists out there why don't you just tone done the crazy, and stop preaching doom, and gloom?

I HATE when people will refuse to sympathize with others just because they don't understand why they're hurt by something. To do so is missing the point of sympathy ENTIRELY. Compassion should be unconditional. You shouldn't just feel compassion for people who are hurt by something that you consider it "okay" for them to be hurt by, and if they're hurt by something that you think they shouldn't take seriously, you instead ridicule them for being too sensitive or being a drama queen. Newsflash: We're human beings, we're all diverse. We're not all going to feel the same feelings. Other people are going to be hurt by things you don't find hurtful, and vise versa. And instead of shunning each other's feelings, we should instead try to understand them. That is the way to build a better world for us to live in.
That is all.

I really hate it, when someone you like is crying and another person you also have as a friend is talking crap about the person crying, like putting her down etc. This is really wrong.

I hate Memorial Day. I used to enjoy it, because it was the start of summer.
But now that I'm older, almost everyone I love is in the cemetary. Bringing flowers there is just depressing and horrible. I dread this holiday, and I cry almost every year.
