Why?

Why is it so damned hard for people to understand the critical importance of this election, and see that for this country to have ANY chance of surviving, we canNOT allow McFailin' to get elected?!

Here is yet another example of just how inane the Republican Party has become, and this should scare people. People should see that the Republican ticket is THE WORST possible choice out there.

It makes no sense.

None.

One Week

I got to spend an entire week with Kelly.

I don't know when I've been so happy.

We have a ton of photos, and I'm sure I'll be posting a good number of them.

^_____^

I MISS YOU BABY!

-headdesk-

Well, it seems our treasure hunt is going swimmingly.

Contestants have been trying to pry open Police Call Boxes all over campus to find our key, when we explicitly stated in several emails that the keys are NOT hidden within things, but placed on or as near to as possible, and will always be mostly visible. NEVER HIDDEN WITHIN THINGS.

I got a call from Campus Police 20 minutes after hearing word and promptly sending out a massive email telling people (in a much, much nicer way) to not be FUCKING MORONS about it.

Seriously, when did people stop thinking at get so goddamn stupid? Jesus.

My head hurts from the stupidity.

Atheist Spirituality?

I finally got around to buying Andre Comte-Sponville's The Little Book of Atheist Spirituality.

I've gotten about 20 pages in, and it's kept my attention so far. I'm not usually one for philosophical stuff, but I figured I need to learn to read the stuff.

I was hesitant on buying this book, at first, because of the idea of "Atheist Spirituality," which, I guess, is why I needed to buy it, to see if his idea makes sense. I think of spirituality as too closely tied to religion, and having belief in some deity. However, Comte-Sponville attempts to show how spirituality can be detached from religion, which is entailed in the last part of the book.

As of now, he's described the idea of communion. He argues that communion, a community of people brought together by similar ideas, can exist without religion, as is the case of early Buddhist and other "atheistic" religions. The main gist is:

Society has yet to exist without religion, because societies have yet to live long enough to move into that point. Society cannot exist without communion. Communion does not have to be based on religion, however. So, does this mean that society can exist without religion?


This is a question I've been pondering myself, and want to read more into his explanation of whether or not this is possible. It's pretty thought-provoking stuffs.

Biden vs Palin vs Iron Man

Well, I was watching the debate tonight, and realized after an hour I had no idea what the hell was going on.

We're now watching Iron Man on Blu-Ray.

I've never seen the movie in theaters, so, this is new to me.

*ahem*

I'm alive and well. I apologize for last night.

The VP Debate is tomorrow. I could use a good laugh.

T_____T

I STILL FEEL GROSS!

IT'S DRIVING ME INSANE! MY COMPULSIONS CAN'T HANDLE SOMETHING OF THIS MAGNITUDE! I NEED SOMEONE TO YELL AT!

DAMMNITITI!

-goes to the corner to cry to sleep-

Damnit, God!

-sighs- Tonight's been shite after I finished talking to Kelly. I should've just gone straight to bed after then.

The Bailout Bill gets passed.

I end up caught in the middle of a group prayer for someone I don't really know, and all of a sudden the priest from El Salvador prays for me in two languages.

NOW, Pat Condell is facing having his channel banned from YouTube because they're fucking pussies and won't stand up for freedom of speech, but would rather kowtow to Islamic Radicals in Turkey and Pakistan. If his channel gets removed, I'm closing my account. Simple as that. Fuck youtube. FUCK YOUTUBE!

I want to take a shower now, and will, but the icky feeling of being prayed for (yet again) will NOT go away so easily.

Damnit. Damnit. Damnit.

*UPDATE*

Apparently, it's spelled "dammit", and if I want to spell it my way, it's "damn it". I've spelled it wrong for as long as I can remember.

Dammit. Dammit. Dammit.

DAMMIT GOD!
