Haven't updated for awhile, been pretty busy these past few days fucking around and all. But I'm pleasantly surprised that my last entry hit 10 comments, so thanks to all of you who visit this site and leave your comments. Thanks too, to the people who wished me on my 16th, really appreciate. Anyway, I've been thinking about this issue for a rather long period of time already, and I'm sure I've briefly covered it in one of my earlier entries. Anyway, it's none other than religion. Yes, religion. Religion to me is a matter of faith. I do believe that there is a God, but I won't speculate which religion this "God" actually belongs to. Hypocritical of me perhaps? That I am not acknowledging the God of my religion as the One True God, but honestly. I've thought about this a damn lot, really. And I believe that everyone is under that One True God, just that we show our faith through diffrent ways. And when I mean ways, I refer to RELIGION itself. Religion is a WAY. In every religion, there is a God. In some religions, there is more than one God. Sounds irrational doesn't it? But we are merely showing that faith to God, just in a different way. And these different Gods are all actually the same God we pray to. I know it doesn't make sense when you (the reader) reads it, because I don't know how to put it properly, I know my explaination sucks. But this is the best way I could put it, so yeah. Secondly, this issue on religion bothers me much more. In Christianity and Islam, they say that their religion is the one true religion, and that any one who belongs to any other religion is going to Hell. That to be honest, I do not believe at all. Think about it logically, is it fair that you are going to Hell, even if you show a tremendous amount of faith to the religion you were born into? God to me is fair, God to me is understanding. God won't send you to Hell just because you aren't in that one "true" religion. These statements were probably made up by someone who felt that their religion was exclusively the religion that could bring them to heaven, think Hitler, just that there wasn't any Holocaust at all. Tell me, if Christianity or if Islam was the one true religion, would that bunch of eskimos in the arctic, or the tribal people deep in the forests of Africa be sent to Hell? (Assuming that they don't know what Christianity or Islam is) IF it's anybody who is to fucking blame, it's the fucker who distorted the idea of the one true religion, defected and started his own religion himself. But then again, why would God want that to happen? Would God blame us (this generation) for not being in his "true religion"? If I started a new religion, definitely I'm going to Hell. But no, it WASN'T me who distorted the one true religion. I'm not going to go to Hell for just sticking to the religion I was born into am I? At this point of time, nobody knows which religion that ONE true God started. No matter how much evidence one has to stake his claim that his religion is the TRUE religion, I can and will say that nobody has ever ENOUGH evidence to prove it. Like I said, if anybody was to go into Hell, it would be the ones who distorted the true religion, and that would date back to a long long long long time ago, definitely not this generation (1800s onwards? Maybe even earlier). Therefore, I'm just here blogging about how I feel about religion. To end this issue, I'll just quote something I wrote about religion a few days back. God is merciful, God is forgiving. God will not punish us because we did not follow his true religion, for we did not know which one it is. Therefore it is only right that He does not fault us. We will not NOT be doing any wrong by following the religion we were born into, as long as we have the FAITH. For as mentioned,, God is fair, God is good and God is understanding. What I said about is what I feel, I'm not telling anybody to do this or that. So DON'T get the wrong idea. Neither do I give a rat's ass if your going to tell me that other people feel this way too. Just stick to your religion, and I'll stick to mine :) Anyway, with that typed and over with. I forget what else I wanted to say. So typical of me. Oh yeah, now I do. I'm sad that my mp3 player got confiscated, and I won't be getting it back for 3 months. So I'll just like to make a plea here, if you have a spare mp3 player, MD, Discman whatever that can play music that you can lend. Please please please, lend it to me. I'm dying without my mp3 player, and my MD's totally fucked up. Thank you. At the same time, I will just compile a wishlist, that I know nobody will bother to read or comprehend to, but yeah just a little hope that maybe one of this someone can get me.
1. Franz Ferdinand CD 2. New pair of Converse Sneakers 3. A pair of the new Levis range Jeans. 4. Baggier shirts 5. In Flames Soundtrack to Escape CD 6. Some new stationaries, especially a curved ruler :D 7. Pay for the repair of my MD *Sigh*. If only if only I could get this all/done. Anyway, before I end, I would just like to say that this might be the last entry on fxck.blogdrive, I might/most probably/definitely will be relocating to a soon-to-be purchased domain, amagawd.net. So yeah. Do continue to visit this site as always though! Thanks! Guess I've said more than enough for this extremely long entry. If there are any typos, or if you have any views on the religion issue that you'd like to bring up OR if you need to ask me for my shoe size or waist size for the sneakers/jeans (Hehehehehe), kindly leave a comment! Peace. (: |

| toni August 3, 2004 02:26 AM PDT Hey, you. I owe you a birthday present, so when I'm back tell me what you don't have and I'll get it for you. As for the religion thing, I have a lot to say but I'm too tired to, I'll talk about it another day. To sum it up I'm basically agnostic so you can probably guess my feelings on the topic. Ciao (: | ||
| Spike August 3, 2004 01:07 AM PDT I'm only getting my fucking player back 3 months, why do I keep getting reminded of that. I hate Mr Fucking Peh, motherfucking son of a bitch. I should have never handed in my fucking player to Chan, argh. Fuck I hate myself and my idiocy. Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck | ||
| Ariel August 2, 2004 09:24 PM PDT I don't know, 80 or so? Haha, really dirt cheap. But anyway I was only kidding. You'd be much better off saving that cash to buy something better - I mean, you already have an mp3 player. What're you gonna do with the cheap discman when you get it back? It's gonna be deadweight, believe me. So.. You could use that money to treat the Brotherhood.. I was thinking Edo Sushi again. But I digress. Stop ponning school! | ||
| Spike August 2, 2004 12:14 PM PDT Ariel how much do they cost? And bebe I have so many wants, because I know people like you won't get me anything :D | ||
| bebebababobo August 2, 2004 02:49 AM PDT jeez....why do you have so many wants? | ||
| Ariel August 2, 2004 02:05 AM PDT Typo. It's explanation and not explaination. Doofus. (: Anyway about your theory of Religion.. I'm not going to contest it over here - maybe when I see you in school. :P By the way.. Why don't you just use your pocket money to purchase one of those cheap-ass Discmans? They have pretty long playback times, I hear. See you in school, Brother! | ||
