Everybody says that religion is the cause of the problems in the world. It isn't. Abusing religion is.

When people think that their set of beliefs is the only right one, and everybody else is wrong. That isn't what all core religions are about. Jesus said if they are not working against us, they are with us. With us against whom, he did not specify.

   Unfortunatly, most religions have a good vs. evil motif, which people pull out of context and make themselves "good" and choose a convinient  scapegoat to be "evil."

      I think I realized about the waiting thing. It isn't so much waiting as looking forward to something. Some people need something to hold on to to stay alive, like religion or a promise or love or revenge or something. Some people just need to wait for something, or to look forward to something. Do I love stating the obvious or what?

        Hello there, it is a no-school day and I am sitting around waiting. I am not really sure what I am waiting for, but I am waiting. It seems I spend most of my life waitng. At school, obviously, waiting for the bell to let us go, waiting on the bus to get home, waiting until my home work is done, waitning in the back of my mind until a specific holiday...Nothing ever happens, just waiting.

        This is my first blog ever....Scary isn't it? I now have the power to spread my paranoid, psychotic, and occasionally somewhat coherent brain byproducts onto the unsuspecting masses, and the suspecting masses, or what ever individual, unsuspecting or otherwise, which does not constitute a mass but is otherwise exposed to my ideas, or lack there of.  

        Speaking of incoherence, today at my high school we had standardized testing. Standardized testing does, or at least did, have a good place in education, but I am against the current standardized tests like I am against microwaving puppies. It is cruel, unusual, accomplishes nothing and ticks alot of people off.

      I can present the normal arguments against the testing, that you cannot test non-zombie entities against a test made for zombies, it takes up too much valuable classroom time, and a cold machine like a Scan-tron cannot measure what is in a kid's mind. I would also like to add that the people who develop these tests have brains the size of mouse fetuses.

      They think if you word a question poorly, you need to be smart to get it right. No, you have to have the I.Q. of foot fungus to figure out what the megalomaniacs behind the test had in mind.

      Luckily, testing is over until next semester. I have a report to do on the endoplasmic reticulum due Monday that I have to work on. I need that like I need a machete in my spleen. I also have math, English, and Model UN homework. See you soon, if I survive.
