Re: Patriotism = Parochialism
Even 'adopting' a religion does not grant you the hereafter you desire. Your fate is predestined. Irrespective of your conduct in this life you will go where you were predestined for. :)
I read that in a religious 'tract' somewhere and for the love of me I cant remember where. I think it was the Bible, but I am not sure.

This doesn't mean that i want to die or that i am ready to die, I want as much time as i can get. It just means that i am "at peace" with the inevitable.
Well Vidcc, I am not so brave. I am absolutely terrified of death. Not because I fear punishment, I just have no desire to cease to be and quickly be forgotten.

To those that say "well they profess this religion yet still do bad things," ...no shit...it goes without saying.
Also there are those that blow up buildings in the name of religion...again no shit.
If man created God to stop chaos, then it must have been pretty bad. Dontcha think? :huh:
Many of you say it's bad now. I think it would be worse.
It's almost like when you get comfortable in job that always wish you had (making lots of money), yet after awhile you start complaining about it.
Answering to yourself isn't ebough in my book. There are too many differing personalities to say, "hey everyone stop being selfish because it's just not good, mmmk?"
I've seen too many folks change their life for the better, like the fella who stopped cheating on his wife.
He didn't catch a disease or anything; he got into religion.
I for one was not brainwashed. I did not grow up in a religious household at all.
One thing is for certain...if one is savvy enough, it's easier to take what you want at any given time than to ask for or earn it.
As I said before, kill the fella who get's on your nerves.
Take that $20 bill that the guy dropped at the store instead of letting him know he dropped it.
Fuck that bitch and then tell her to get the fuck out and never call her again.
When you are out of town, have a one stand with a woman even though you know your herpes is acting up. :sick:
That bum who really is hungry, wants a sandwich but fuck him 'cause he should get job. You hope he freezes.
@hobbes- none of these involves "desperate situations". They do involve selfishness but selfishness works for many.
Man is primal
I try not to do bad things because even before my belief in religion I just thought they were wrong and evil. When I got older I was enlightened to a degree about the mind works for many. I see the excuses that people have for the things they do, including myself.
People ARE NOT ROBOTS. Just because they follow the Bible for instance, it is not program code. A man professing religion doesn't necessarily believe it either.......
