As the movie V for Vendetta stated "Artists use lies to tell the truth while politicians use them to cover the truth up" what I've been thinking is while artistry shows us the truth and politics shepherd us away from it what then does the third wheel of the tribunal of artistry politics and religion do with the truth. Some would argue religion shows us the truth but if that is the answer then why are there so many religions with almost each one of them shoving and fighting for our attention to show us the truth. Is it because each one believes they've found the real truth that artistic endeavors have not or is it simply a well thought out and choreographed dance in which each religion plays its part pulling us and shoving us this way and that to dilute the real truth with fanatic religious babble or zealous recitation of a "holy book". I for one believe it to be the second of the two because if it were truth these "enlightened men" of the various religion would be enlightened enough to know the truth when it is shown not jockey for position to show off their lies. I'm sure some on here believe there to be a god or divine being but I simply fail to see any reasoning to support it "God caused the Big Bang which crated tha earth and all it's multiple peoples" does not pass with me if ONE GOD created us all why then do we have so many religions honoring different ones? Because there's no such thing the big bang was simply a chemical reaction big enough to create the earth possibly using the energy of some star going supernova thus giving off enough raw power to fuel this massive chemical reaction which combined the various elements into what we needed for life and what created the things that became us through evolution. Because humans aren't just made we are chemical compounds that follow a form we are no divine descendants of Adam and Eve because if we were each marriage and act of sex would be incest and each baby would be deformed for the most part and I'm 100% sure not every man woman and child happen to be deformed in any manner thus disproving that fact. Oh of course there's heaven and hell where all the good and bad people go....yeah....no that's not even remotely true to my way of thinking reincarnation makes more sense than that because the place would eventually overflow with annual deaths as high as they are but think of this how many times have babies in your family grown up resemble and act like a deceased relative, very likely I'm sure right? That's because maybe just maybe they were that relative in their past life which makes sense instead of a "God" continually pumping out souls that are almost exactly alike to one another that wouldn't make much sense anyway since then we're all created unique which is not the case people act and look a lot alike most of the time so the idea of refunded souls is very plausible I believe since there have been studies showing ghosts are in fact real it would then in turn make souls a real thing not some abstract brain theory thus further proving reincarnation is possible but then again not even that is able to be explained completely but it does make a wee bit more sense than the whole 'God makes souls' theory.

I believe that's all I need rant about my fingers ache my mind hurts and my 2liter of mountain dew spiked with a bag of pixie stix is drained so I lack the energy to bother anymore if this hasn't convinced you or made you think PM me talk to me on MSN XFire or Yahoo!Messenger I'd be glad to go further into detail and help you understand any hard to figure out places. -Kevin Reighdreck Fish.

Also I believe I'll be focusing more on this turning it into a philosophy/debate journal with random instances of poetry updated weekly, no worries my little muppets I'm disturbed enough to think up a new topic a week.
