I wrote a masive essay, including drawing on my past with examples, took about 30 minutes. But then I realised: 15 years I spent telling people how it is didn't change anyones complacency to being ruled by others for the rulers personal gain. Why would me writing here do it? Humanity blunts the instruments of change, by wearing down emotional resistance of people like me, to the point that I just say:
Hey, if you are happy to live as you are, like a mushroom, in the dark and fed on shit, why should I bother to try to help you anymore Kalam.
I don't mean it in any way to offend you. If you are convinced what you think is right, and more importantly, are HAPPY with your beliefs, I won't try to change you.
You ARE wrong, but I see what IS there, and it makes me UNHAPPY everyday. So of the two of us, you are probably better off.
BTW: I'm not an atheist: Either 1/ there is no god, in which case I am very sad that ppl still use him/her/it/them as an excuse to propogate hate or 2/ There is a god/s, in which case a/ WTF are they doing? and b/ Why the fuck would they care if I believe in them or not, they are already God. If there is an afterlife/heaven/hell, I will find out when the time comes. It seems massively conclusive that there is no god, but if there are, and what everyone has written is correct: I will be judged by my actions and moral choices, in which case I am sitting pretty. But I don't do what I consider morally right for some reward afterwards: I do it because it is right.
