And now a new one.
I find it amusing that apparently every single person in the U.S. has such a passionate, unwavering opinion about global warming, one way or the other.
The simple truth is that man-made influences on the climate are theories. Could they be right? Certainly! Could they be wrong? Yes. Everyone needs to stop acting like motherfucking pricks because you have access to super-secret confidential high-toxin bar-graphs and “OMG 76 thousand scientists agree with you!” You know what that statement means, by the way? It means that 1 or 2 scientists came up with a theory or counter-theory, gave a fuckton of presentations to a bunch of different colleges and told you that every person that attended their lectures agreed with them. And is a scientist. An environmental-specializing scientist.
Absolutely nothing has been proven. This issue is big because some politician (Al Gore you fucknut) found out that scaring people makes votes appear. Then said politician searched around for a doomsday theory mildly believable and made it their campaign slogan. 15 years later, a politician who people give a damn about (not Al Gore) took up the torch and here we are on our precipice of panic.
If the brightest minds in the world in those specific fields don’t fucking agree with each other about global warming, what the fuck do you all have to say about it?
First an old subject
For the sake of space and time, we assume various beliefs to be true, as follows:
-Sin is defined as the absence of God, hence, God cannot sin… Him being God and all.
-Man is imperfect; no exceptions. (Jesus is to be considered a God for the sake of the paper).
-All hierarchies are inherently flawed in some way. (no system is perfect)
-A “true church” would be defined as the manifestation and tool of God’s will on Earth.
-God would not allow the manifestation of his will to be used for evil purposes. Or rather, it being God’s will, evil cannot be born from it, nor could it be used as a tool for evil (see first “belief”).
-Hence, religious hierarchies are man-made and therein imperfect, and therein, a potential tool for evil.
Hence, any law or rule not explicitly given individually to men, from God, cannot be held as doctrine (or a matter of the soul) unless given without the medium of a specific religious organization. If religious organizations are man-made, then God could not give credit to any given organization by giving them exclusive religious insight without causing his message to eventually be warped and potentially abused by the mortal hands of man.
Hence it is my belief that if God did give man rules to abide by, they are those held consistent throughout the various religions around the world (given broadly so as not to give any one organization the power to distort): compassion, a sense to preserve life, honest dealings (all those things that ultimately lead to ideal communities and a solid social structure).
Anything more specific I believe to be the workings of said individual organizations seeing as the majority of these beliefs do not carry across cultures/religions. Hence, not real matters of the soul, nor rules given to us by God, but rather, by other men.
In conclusion, why would you trust another man to tell you what God is saying? Too much power is given to men/organizations in that single act. Once you give them your full trust, your life is no longer yours. If God wants to talk to you, or if you want to talk to God; do so. No man is given abnormal religious attunement superior to any other man, if our beliefs are to be believed.
Instead of finding your religion among man’s creations, find your religion with God, and keep it between God and yourself, lest others think to give you their lives.
