Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

way of the crazy

cartoonish, but so are some "thinkers"
Nuts?
Well, if you want half-logical steps leading to quarter-rational conclusions based on bits without context, then you too can have some flights of fancy and call it whatever. Boy!

"The truth is out there" is as meaningful as, "it's in there" a ketchup commercial. It is a bit sad to see people make some really odd believes on little.

I had gone through a few pieces of UFO and alien rot and, thinking of the applaudible inclusion of "Terminator" scene of Reese's interview explaining the future with SkyNet. "In technical terms, he's a loon." If you like the idea of super-governments hiding secrets, try National Treasure. It is as equally fantastic and believable like Jurassic Park, Men in Black, and the Hulk.

So many people are poisoned either early or late with questions or worse, distrust. What I don't think conspiracy-theoroists understand is the network they develop is more dangerous than Scientology. That, at least, has a face. Hiding in place sight is a very scary prospect.

Too often religious sects are found only long after the poisoning and destruction has started. The difference being is that you generally have a somewhat charismatic leader who can be brought to justice. Whereas if you have a blogger or publisher who openly opposes the government and its wicked evil agenda, what are you left with then? So, in the United States, even given the number of times it has not been defending itself, computer owners are allowed to freely type and speak wish to overthrow the government who allows it?

That is crazy; that is dangerous. I, myself, had stated that there is too much corruption in the government and that there is a drastic need for change, but democracy is a hell of a lot better than say, Cuba, Russia, China, and the list goes on. Cuba has no allowed computer purchase and cell phone access. China allows these too, but ... internet freedom is not limitless.

While I find the "sightings" interesting intermingled with the hoaxes, I am disturbed by the general message of, "don't trust the government". Again, I find "errors" as it were in the government, but I will not condone an anarchy movement that would destroy the freest and most modern government of the world.

I don't want the homosexual culture to be as common as fast food restaurants, but enjoy the freedom that doesn't execute homosexuals for their being.

Tying this to previous posts: while I may have be simple in my explanation of distrust the bible or distrust your religion, I should restate that you should keep an open mind, be free to question and come up with a rational, reasonable understanding. That is not to get people to inherently distrust. No, no.

If all religions are wrong and there is no God, then the churches and spirituality of people and their understanding of souls, heaven and hell, are still good things. Whereas people without hope, without security, without structure, without government are unruly, wicked, and will not progress. The church has provided structured living for many people, giving them hope and understanding. The church has collectively grouped people to accomplish many great things -- charity, spreading faith and trust to many people across the globe.

While some people intentionally misguide people, others unintentionally, most often religions guide people through life so that they are productive, feel loved, and have a sense of hope. You have a finite physical lifespan. Do all that you can in that time frame. If more people had this concept, then being locked in jail WOULD be a penalty. It would be days, weeks, months, years where you could do nothing in your lifetime. That would inspire you to get clean, move ahead and help others.

In my lifetime I hope that the seeds I have planted were good ones. Each person affects others, a continue rippling effect. I only hope that I planted more crop than weed.
