I know two or three people here who'd appreciate a slide down a fireman's pole.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

While you are young, you don't have much choice but to be surrounded by them. Once you are old enough, remember two things: one, there are many more people who share your interests than you might think. Two, you have to go out and find them because they believe they're just as alone as you are, and aren't going to be looking for you.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

-Stephen Jay Gould

And viewing others as human garbage isn't exactly healthy thinking.

My head feels sore from the constant stress of the day. Trying to avoid people. Hearing those annoying voices of kids in class and having to cover my ears to avoid stress. I'm just waiting for that one person to give me a look or say something. I'm gonna get verbal as fuck and I'm ready for it. Every second I feel like I'm in a room full of wild animals. These big stupid apes we call college students. College is no better than high school same shit kids. Same painful pointless work. I could imagine how it only gets worse after this.

If you think the work is pointless, then what are you doing there?

He asked you an honest question. This is a discussion board. You should use it as such.

I'm not trying to insult you, i'm genuinely curious. You said the work at college was pointless. If you really believe that, then why are you still there?
