scientologists are crazy.

April 17, 2006 · Posted in what? 

scientologists are lunatics. i was looking at this
and i’m totally flabbergasted. granted, it’s not something you learn until you’re at the upper echelon of the organization, but still! at least mormonism is partially straightforward– it’s a cult ahead of its time. it explains all the weird shit outright and people have a choice (really) to follow it or not.

that’s one of the primary reasons i hate religion. people have the ability to use their built-in bullshit detectors to decide whether they want to do something or not…somehow, the notion of humans evolving from humanesque creatures (apes/chimps/etc) is harder to believe than believing that there’s some crazy omnipotent being that watches your (and everyone elses’) every move and arranges the world accordingly..and that somehow, this crazy person/being/whatever has his own magical place in the sky for all the people “he” (not she) determines are worthy. call me crazy, but i have this tendency to believe the things that have..well..factual backing? if i look in the sky, what do i see? stars. i don’t see some crazy goon-eyed bastard staring at me telling me to do shit. stars =! crazy goon-eyed omnipotent thing. if i looked up one day and saw said crazy goon-eyed bastard, i might be willing to adjust my beliefs– but until that moment..no.

at any rate. i’m getting old. i feel old. when i think that i graduated high school 4 years ago, it makes me feel like an old fart. 4 years isn’t a long time, granted, but it’s sufficiently long to make me feel old. BLAH.

work is gay, also. in case you weren’r aware.

    i object to your characterization of mormonism! they only MOSTLY seem like a cult from the get-go. they also try to keep a lot of things secret until you’ve gotten all the way into it. thing is, mormonism’s been around for a lot longer so there are a lot more leaks of information :)

    and you feel old? i just turned TWENTY ONE. now that’s old ;)
