Religion – so which one is right for you

I really should be studying right now, in fact I really should be at Deans house with the boys getting trashed and playing with his new modified Wii… that sounded really wrong. Anyway, instead of doing all those I decide to do this blog. I don’t usually don’t touch on a topic like this, its quite sensitive. Then again I’ve done several sensitive blogs. I mean who am I to say which religion is the right religion? Instead, I’m gonna blog about what’s wrong with the different religions. Again, I’m not here to start a crusade, jihad or a religious war, instead going through a religious journey to see which religion is right, I’ve decide to different look at the hypocrisy offered by religion.

Let’s start with the most popular religion right now… on the media anyway; Muslim (or Islam) or whatever they call themselves, claim to be a religion of peace… except if you don’t believe them… that’s when they’ll claim you’re an infidel, and kill you. I mean don’t get me wrong, not here to bash Muslims, some of those are great people. Except only these are the same people that got pissed off because of a comic strip (picture right) yet it is OK for them to destroy a Buddhist statue more than 2000 years old (despite international plead). Fair enough it is against their religion to put their prophet on a picture and at the same time it is against their religion to have another religion’s symbol in their land, but haven’t these people ever heard of religious tolerance? Guess not, else this blog won’t be here by now.

Then next we have Christians or Catholics, honestly why can’t some of these religions just stick to one name? for the hell of of this blog we’ll just refer them all as Christians. Now you may be wondering; Wait a minute… how are Christians hypocrites? They seem like the most peaceful people out of any religion, they haven’t hurt anybody at all… right? Well… no, I mean just during the early 1095 to 1291 something called The Crusades where under the name of God they try to take back the holy land of Jerusalem which at the time was controlled by the Muslims. Less than 200 years later a manual titled Malleus Maleficarum (bottom left) or the Witches Hammer was published. The manual taught Catholics on how to catch and torture specifically women who has been accused of Witchcraft, between 1487 to 1520 around 600,000 to 900,000 was killed because of being accused of Witchcraft. Now switching to modern day, there priest who are supposed to be represent God to the people who has has been caught for being lolicon. Don’t get me wrong though, not saying all Christian or Catholics are all warmongering-witch hunting-lolicons the fact is; it wasn’t their Gods fault, it was their believers, their ambassadors who created their dark history. May be they should choose their representative carefully next time.

Judaism is next on the agenda, but wait, what did the Jews ever did to the us? Well nothing really, just want to make a point about perhaps these are the most unlucky people in history… ever! I mean they did put Jesus on the cross so may be that’s their curse, but I mean honestly, these people are probably the most unlucky people. I mean first they were imprisoned by the Egyptians for thirty years, throughout all thirty years the Jews were working in the worst state living under an oppressive nation. They manage to exile out of Egypt and travelled to the Promised Land. Then when the you thought the worst was over, between 1930s to the end of World War II, the Jews were once again caught in the middle of the shits, more than 5,933,900 Jews was killed as part of the Final Solution. But wait! There’s more… After the 1948 till now, since declaring their independence, they weren’t the most welcomed people in the middle-east. It just Jews never seem to able to settle down and be left in peace. I’m here to promote Zionism or even being Antisemitism, but simply making the point that these people are just plain… unlucky.

Buddhism are peaceful enough. Buddhist unlike any other religion hasn’t started any wars, try to take back any holy land, hasn’t blown themselves up because of infidels, one monk (right) did burn himself alive… now that’s doing it like a man. But what really shits me is probably, the founder of Buddhism himself… that’s right, Buddha, why you may ask? the guy brought a collective philosophy that; everything in life is materialistic and in order to achieve enlightenment, one should give up all these materialistic objects to achieve enlightenment so they can reach Nirvana. That’s easy to say, especially if you’re the son of a king… Wait Buddha was the son of a king. I mean this guy was suppose to be the next king, his dad has great plans for him, but instead he chose to be a holy man. I mean how pissed off do you think his father the king would be? I mean its easy for him to give up everything that’s materialistic because his from a wealthy family. But can a common person at the time afford to do the same thing? Don’t think so Buddha.

I’ve decide to give Scientology a bash, for several reason. I walked by the Church of Scientology and was harassed to take a Dianetic test, they’re more pushy then bloody Mormons. I also wanted to see if I get sued for exposing Scientology secrets. I mean here it is, a religion and that’s if you can call it a ‘religion’, created by a science fiction writer. Anyway, the theory about Scientology is… actually no, I’m not going to explain it, not rich enough to afford a lawyer in case Scientologist decide to sue me… instead I’m going to post a link where it explains the story of Scientology which involves something Alien warlord named Xenu, I just saved you guys shitload of money!

Now after all the rant, you’re probably am I an Atheist? or even Agnostic? No… I believe in a Supreme Being, except may be my Supreme Being is different to yours. In fact may be you’re Supreme Being is the same as mine. What’s more I just want to point out is that religions are like Transformers, they are ‘more than meets the eye‘. Also what annoys me about religion is the purpose of it. Religion is suppose to be a guide, but as soon as you use it as an excuse for converting people and when they refuse to be converted you blow yourself up than that is wrong. Also no religion is perfect, may be because its written by the people, and people are full of imperfection and hypocrisy.

Also, science an religion never liked each other. There’s also been debate whether in school we should teach Creationism or Evolution. Whether we should teach Natural Selection or Intelligent Design. I mean look at the human body does it look like its from an Intelligent Design? I mean we have a Recreational Organ next to a Waste Processing unit, indeed it’s quite intelligent. Then we have cloning, I mean we have all these religious conservative theologians who tells us that we should not play god because we don’t have the power to do so. Well I say why not? I mean didn’t the Bible quote; Then God created man in his own image? I mean hell, if we continue quoting the Bible we also realise that God was the first genetic engineer; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof//which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman. I mean dude, God did it… and if he makes us in his own image I guess we should also have his ability to do so as well.

I really should of went to Deans house and get trashed while playing Wii…
