Religion
I decided to try out the Paramount+ “live stream” feature and found myself a “Indiana Jones” marathon, so I flipped it on. I’m watching the movie and Indy just crossed the threshold of the grail sanctum, and it just strikes me as to how absolutely moronic this “spirituality” thing really is.
People believe this shit. People live their whole lives committed to this lie. It’s wild to me. Then again, I also recently watched “The Contestant”, so I guess I’m not that shocked about what people will dedicate large portions of their lives to. Still though. This religion is a messy amalgam of about a hundred polytheistic practices bastardized and dumped into the form factor we know today as “Christianity”. What makes it even worse is that the bible is a cumbersome and ancient text with a lot of problems. It remains willfully ignorant of things like homosexuality, chromosomal aberration, and medicine on the whole. I get it. I really do. How could these goat-fucking Shepards have ever conceived of a future where people stare into all-knowing glass bricks that connect them instantly with any locale on the planet? Obviously they never saw it coming. Had no notion of DNA or really knowledge at large, and honestly the bible goes pretty far in condemning knowledge. In fact, the only fictional character in the entire bible who is even remotely curious about how the world works is Satan. This goes far in explaining why Satanism has always been an option for people who are disgusted by christianity. If you have enough brain cells, you likely will seek damn near any alternative.
God fucking dammit, I hate this shit. How anyone can remain religious in light of advances in science and physics is just a total fucking mystery to me.
That said, enjoy something that’s not retarded!
