VERY HIGH IMAM: 'We of the Islamic state of Blazabad...
OBAMA: "Blazabad?" 'That doesn't sound too good'
VERY HIGH IMAM: 'It's not. At least not good for YOU! Allah commands that you do not interrupt me again.'
OBAMA: 'Okey dokey!'
VERY HIGH IMAM: 'As I was saying before I was interrupted by an infidel pretending to be an American,
We of the Islamic state of Blazabad demand that all Americans read the Koran and believe every single word of the Koran to be absolutely and infallibly true. Next we demand that you blindly submit to our Sharia law rule. If you do not comply we will fill every American politician's room with exploding suicide hookers!'
OBAMA: 'Wow! What a blowjob! Will there be anything else?'
VERY HIGH IMAM: 'Yes, we'd like 500,000 *Happy Meals to go.'
OBAMA: 'If it will cheer you up, we'll make the Chinese pay for them'
MY COMMENT:
As far as I am concerned
people who blindly feel books that are thousands of years old
are infallible and inerrantly perfect
ARE INSANE!!!
In what I have written President Obama
is trying his best to humor this insane Imam
who is representing an Islamic state...
THAT DOESN'T EXIST!!!
Okay, now when you don't laugh
you can be absolutely certain why
*Miserable people who want Happy Meals
I don't get it either
I am always looking towards improving my personal belief system.
Unlike established religions, who tend to feel they know all that can be known,
I believe there are infinite things to learn about the reality we perceive.
I'm always ready to find I am wrong about ANYTHING I currently believe
and I'm always ready to upgrade my belief system when more truth is revealed.
Like it or not, for many years, I meet all the Biblical requirements for
Salvation in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ
There are Christians who want to add more qualifications
than the New Testament Bible requires
The worst, I have encountered, are Christians who are absolutely certain
the King James version of the Bible is the ONLY TRUE Bible
and every other translation is of the devil
Christians who believe like this are the most insane I have ever encountered
They seem to think they know all that can possibly be known
and are quick to condemn anyone to burning hell if they disagree.
Below you should find the ending
of a major online argument I have had with one such Christian.
You may find it interesting as it sums up all I currently believe:
POST TO THE CHRISTIAN:
BOTTOM LINE:
1) I have presented enough evidence to make any truly rational person question the validity of the Bible.
2) All that is good and wonderful and useful for the betterment of humanity is more than welcome in my personal evolving philosophy.
3) Just because I meet all the requirements for Salvation, as put forth in the Bible, does not mean that I cannot adopt the good and wonderful teachings of Socrates, the Buddha or anyone else! As long as I do not worship anyone or anything I am perfectly within my Salvation rights to treasure and adopt the good, wonderful and useful from many different philosophies.
4) NO MATTER WHAT ANY BOOK SAYS I do not go around condemning others who don't believe as I do. I AM NOT LIKE YOU!!!!
5) I say: your condemnation of others is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. You are of the Spanish Inquisition fanatical Muslim mindset. Yours is the mindset that creates holy wars!!! IT'S A FACT!!! Mine is the mindset of peace between all good and wonderful belief systems. If there is to be a final judgement I believe those who do evil WILL NOT BE REWARDED no matter who they may say they believe in, period!!
6) I do not endorse any god of hate who desires to torture ANYONE.
7) I do not endorse any god who DEMANDS I worship Him. I endorse a God who will forgive me even as I forgive others.
I DO INDEED FORGIVE YOU, CHRISTIAN
EVEN THOUGH YOU LIED ABOUT ME AND DID NOT APOLOGIZE!!!
God may not be as nice about the matter, but that is none of my business!! You will answer to God for what you have done. Not to me.
THE CHRISTIAN RESPONDED: You have done what a demon would do. Therefore another proof your father is the devil, and you are going to Hell.
MY RESPONSE: IN THE WAY YOU JUDGE ME SO SHALL YOU BE JUDGED!! I CONDEMN NO ONE, BUT YOU HAVE CONDEMNED YOURSELF!!!

It can take a TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF STRENGTH to let go of all the negativity that holds me back and only hang onto the specific anger that propels me forward to victory. All this information about the pollution in the world has threatened to sink me into a 'sea of hopeless negativity'. What good will I be to ANYONE if I allow that to happen?
I mostly do not watch the news reports anymore. It's just not worth it for me to stick my nose in the business of others. They don't care about my problems and, guess what? THE FEELING IS NOW MUTUAL!!! I can't afford to go into depression thinking about the problems. I have to focus on possible solutions and use what I have learned to motivate me to succeed.
In this video Arnold says when the "possible" is not good enough to create a solution you have to reach for the IMPOSSIBLE!
It's "impossible" that this planet is a living being, right? It's "impossible" for me to use music and Tai Chi bodybuilding dance to entertain and cheer up Mother Nature, right? There is no possible way that will make any difference, right? You're absolutely certain of that, right?
Well, Arnold said MANY were absolutely certain that he could NEVER be successful as an actor. He was too big, muscularly, and his accent would always make it impossible for him; not to mention people trying to pronounce his name. Arnold proved them ALL WRONG!!
Chances are Arnold would read about my vision and say it is impossible. It's impossible that the Earth is a living being. It's impossible for me to use music and dance as vehicles to entertain and pacify an enraged Mother Nature...at least until I am dead. Well, I don't see how I have any choice. The rape of the Earth continues to increase as well as the human population.
IT'S ABSOLUTELY HOPELESS!!!
So, as usual, I will have to move towards greater strength without hope, striving to increase the realization of my dream, and...hope for the best.
