Sometimes when I do something wrong or I greatly offend someone, I feel like part of my being has been compromised. My break from my mom's crazy side of the family into humanistic atheism was a tough journey that is still not fully complete. I know I'll have a lot of religious garbage to put up with in the workplace.
Anywho, when I have done a "wrong" to someone that needed to be done, I feel like I cranked the action or inaction from some kind of volcano-like hole in my chest. It hurts badly, even when I know something needs to be done. As such, I do it anyway. I understand that truth is more important than "feeling good" (which is mostly ironic because I'm happy for the most part, anyway).
However, I feel like some of our american peers have grown very accustomed to the idea, perhaps in a way that is too accustomed. This is mainly present in hot issues like abortion or more appropriately, capital punishment. In my Philosophy class last semester, I did a paper on why the capital punishment method should not be used. I argued that unless it is found EMPIRICALLY that capital punishment deters more violent crime than life in prison without the possibility for parole, we should employ LIPW/OP in place of capital punishment as it would be FAIR to impose capital punishment, but not NECESSARY to society's safety, and could be DE-CIVILIZING, leading to a break-down in the mental health of the guards/"death teams." That, of course, is missing several high points of the argument, but such is life. Lol.
The Crazy Christians are using emotional appeals, appeals to tradition, and their "freedom of religion" to indoctrinate or ostracize their children. The Christian system should be put to rest as an organized movement. They are causing harm to our country, and I'm going to expose it.
