In a way I am and in a way I ain't.
Like, ofcourse not every muslim is violent and evil. However Islam itself is barbaric and cruel. This makes me weary of anyone who labels themselves muslim (same goes for any religious label). It's also enraging that so many people sit back and make claims that Islam is somehow a religion of peace when it is demonstrably not. The people who identify as muslims, make me mad. Why? Because clearly they are content to still believe this dogma that only ever has its day when something barbaric and evil is happening. It was formed entirely on conquest and jihad.
Ofcourse, Abrahamic religions in general are all barbaric in their own ways, and Islam is merely the one that seems to be in the limelight so to speak in this current age. I'm as mad at Catholics for still being Catholic even after their church rapes thousands of children, and has throughout history caused so many other atrocities.
People in general make me mad. A lot of people are fucking stupid and ignorant and willingly believe in bullshit even when it is so clearly vile and abhorrent.
Is it right to say that this is a problem then with people as opposed to their religions? I think it's both.
Probably gone off on a tangent here, having a bit of a rant, but I'm becoming increasingly disillusioned with the human race in general. How can so many believe in something that allows for, and even promotes this mind-bending evil, and at the same time call it righteous. I am starting to view humans as a plague on this earth. Even the ones who sit by and get on with their lives like everything's okay. There seems to be more evil than good knocking around. When are the ones who call themselves good and honest going to wake up and smell the fucking coffee? Kick out this plague that is religion. We as a species need to be fucking done with it. All it does is suppress, dumb down and destroy and hope of intellectual thought and any semblance of progress.
I hear ya Napoleon. I have sometimes felt the same way about humanity, have pretty much lost hope for a brighter better future. Humanity keeps getting in it's own way for two primary reasons: 1. Stupidity and 2. Religion. Most times they go hand in hand.
