I have an unhealthy anger that I can't seem to control when it comes to these weak minded sorts. My Grandfather died last week and his funeral was on Friday. He was a man of scientific mind that questioned all things, including religion, but some dipshit preacher came to turn my grandfather's burial into his own preaching ground. I was so disgusted I refused to shake his hand afterwards and told him to get the hell away from me. These morons are cursed with utter stupidity, and I felt robbed by a Jesus freak. It should have been a time for his family and friends to remember the man and recollect on his life and why we all loved him, and not a phony that died over 2000 years ago, if he ever existed at all.
Coffee rant over.
You know how we all sort of suspect that the really vocal homo-phobe might just be gay? Just saying.

Reason applied to experience points to the First Principle. When someone understands the First Principle, then they can recognize the correspondences between spiritual and physical reality in any text that has them. The only test is someone's ability to discern spiritual truths.
I don't care how you dress that pig up, I'm still not going to fuck it.

Easy question. Yes. Got any more?
