Dude, I love you but I don't like you very much.

First, you might as well put your name on it. No one has ever read this blog, and the fact that you posted anon about 45 mins after I added it to buzz. Come on. I know who you are, and that's cool because if it wasn't I would have you unfollowed. But I didn't. Second to say the Hatians are "cursed" and insinuate that caused an earthquake is to lead one to believe that something they did caused an earthquake. Did the Jews deserve the Holocaust? And you probably paused right there. When there is an earthquake in California, did the gays cause it? Look dude, your Old Testament god threw the smackdown. It makes for great (albiet retold) stories. They are such great stories there were told thousands of years before. However, in the end, I believe people shouldn't suffer. I believe that what we need to care for each other is here, now, inside each of us. And I don't think the (insert old book name here) is required to tap into that. I believe this country was founded on Freedom of Religion. That means you are free to yours and I am free to mine. Not that yours gets to make rules that rule me. I believe in a moral contract. That's why I don't steal, or murder. I believe bad things happen to good people, and that's sad but it's the way it goes. Sometimes good things happen to bad people. And sometimes, just sometimes good things happen to good people. When a friend dies from a bullet, old age, cancer, or birth defect, I don't think they deserved it. The problem with ALL religions is sometimes followers use their religion to do bad things, or ignore when bad things happen to other people. And when I say sometimes, I mean every major religion at one time or another. And finally I know how you feel, you know how I feel. You aren't going to convince me and I am not trying to convince you. Therefore this isnt a debate. You are being contrary for contrary sake. If we were friends and you know we don't agree, in fact we are diametrically opposed, you would corespondent with me regarding subjects you know are worth the time and effort. Instead you keep pointing out that you think I am a puppet and heathen, and I think you are a puppet and zealot. Other than that I like you.
