WHAT I LOVE

I love genuinely good people. It’s sad to say but there are very few genuinely good people anymore. In this day and age, good seems to have no identity. People look down on good. Good has become an enemy to the masses. People, while they find good to be tedious and boring, envy evil or certainly very flawed things. Even many of those who don’t envy evil basically claim that there is no evil. Just “misunderstood”. People nowadays like to make this great gray area so that way they feel smarter than they really are. People are so egotistical anymore. They don’t want to accept things as black and white. They can’t feel smart doing that. They’d feel simple and like the rest of society. They can’t have that so they not only question everything, but disagree with everything. If Hitler was around nowadays, people wouldn’t be calling him evil either. “There must be reasons why he’s doing what he’s doing” they would say. Not to brag, but I have a 178 IQ according to the Stanford-Binam test. It’s not even good for much. Only real good thing about it is when I hear people call others who believe the same things I do, or agree with the same points as I do “stupid”, then knowing this person who’s calling us “stupid” doesn’t have nearly as high of an IQ as I do. I’m much more proud of my grasp of common sense. My sense of right and wrong. To be able to admit that I just might be wrong. To know that I cannot outthink God. To understand that just because I have the ability to think of something it doesn’t equate it with a fact. The reason I mention my IQ is because from experience I can say that these personal debates on what causes people to do certain things gets you nowhere. It’s all an elaborate display of the mind to raise the ego. It’s all futile though when you cut down to the chase. Everything you can come up with still takes you to the same destination. It’s either right or wrong. Things ARE black and white. There IS right and wrong. There IS good and evil. Yes, it’s that simple. I guess luckily for me, I realized I can’t outthink what my conscience tells me so there’s no reason for me to try. I don’t care how smart or dumb I am. I know what is right and what is wrong. Everyone has the ability to do that. It’s only those who want to hold the complete opposite opinions as conventional thinking that distort that ability. People who want to feel smart want to complicate things because that way it’s no longer simple. Their questions are not what they think most people can think of. I think most can, given time. Anyone can twist things with their mind until they arrive to the conclusion they want to reach. Anyone can. That’s not being honest with oneself though.

As I’ve grown older, I’ve grown wiser. I’m more mature and appreciate things that are good more than I used to. I never really took good things or people for granted, but there’s always room to appreciate good times with good people more. A couple of years ago, I lost a friend due to an accident. It had been a while since I saw him, but for years there I saw him nearly everyday. He was very good. Not only was I friends with him, but friends with his whole family. His dad is one hell of a character. I spent more time with his dad than I did with anyone in the family. We were close. He’s a very good man as well. His more than beautiful sister is a treasure in the highest sense. Her strength during the funeral was unbelievable and admirable. She didn’t only deal with her own pain of loss and shock of the whole situation, but she took on her mother’s overwhelming grief as well. I knew she was the strongest person I had ever met. What I saw only confirmed that. The mother is such a sweet, wonderful woman. She has such a great motherly instinct. Everything that she did was for her family first. She did it all out of pleasure, not just out of duty. Her children mean everything to her. Even though she was an older woman, she possessed a great innocence. Now that innocence has been taken away. They will never be the same. All because of a moment. A blink of the eye. Life goes on for them and their strength will carry them through. The whole family is a remarkable one. If I had a family of my own, I’d want an exact replica of theirs. God bless them.

I guess my whole point in this blog is that we should all get a strong grasp of good and hold it in our clutches. Whether the good be just a time or a person, we should hold onto it. First of all, we need to learn to find good. What is good? That’s something for you to figure out. Your conscience will tell you. How good in touch are you with your conscience? How many times have you compromised with that trusty voice in your head telling you not to do the wrong thing? The more you do that, the more quiet your conscience becomes. Then you will not know what good and evil is. You’ll inflate that gray line and you’ll understand why people do the wrong things because you do it too. You’ll be a kindred spirit with them. Confused and torn. People don’t want to be told what they are doing is wrong by anyone, including themselves. Hopefully before you get to that point, you’ll keep a firm grasp on what good is and what your conscience tells you to do. It’s there for a reason. I know what good is. I also know what evil is. If you know truly good people, then appreciate them as much as you can. Anytime a bad thing can happen to a good person. A good person can be taken away in the blink of an eye. In a world that embraces bad things or certainly very flawed things, it can’t afford to lose good people, but it happens all of the time.

I don’t know how much time I have. My illnesses are deadly. Hopefully I can live out my life in a decent fashion. Anyone who knows me knows I’m a good person. Before I go, whenever that is, I intend to let those good people know that I know they are good. I intend to let them know that the way they lived their life has won my respect and admiration. I intend to thank them for being the light in this dark world we live in. It’s time you do the same.

THE ATTACK UPON GOD

The attacks upon God and those who believe in Him are becoming more sharp and mainstream in recent years. What these so-called personal geniuses don’t realize is that they are fulfilling scripture by doing so. I hear these masters of the universe say the darnedest things with such fervor and authority about things they know nothing about. They always have to add that little shot to those who believe, especially Christians, saying that they are uneducated and believe in just an adult Santa Claus myth. Nothing like putting those down that disagree. I don’t mind taking shots or giving them much, but those I give the shots to have cast the first stone.

Atheists are prideful hypocrites who say they are for equal treatment and harmony among all of creation, when in fact they want to be recognized by everyone else as being the great thinkers of our time and never miss an opportunity to try to get under the skin of their Christian coinhabitants. They try as hard as they can to stick out from amongst the crowd with their middle-child syndrome. They especially use Christian holidays to make sure that they are heard. Anyone that says they are insulted or offended at God being referred to in our currency or a nativity scene displayed by a town or city during Christmas season is lying to you. One can’t look at a dollar bill and get irate. One can’t look at people praising someone they believe to be their Saviour and feel like they’ve had their faces spat upon. This is their way of letting you know they are smarter than you because they don’t believe in God. They believe in evolution.

The intellectuals and atheists are big believers in evolution. That is their reason for being. This is their god, whether they like to think of it this way or not. Evolution is their god. The supreme prophet of the Evolution god was Darwin. A prophet who didn’t even believe the theory he proposed himself. With this belief, it allows them to live their life without restriction. Why have restrictions when there is nothing to answer for after their lives are done? This is a benefit for their belief. Possibly even an excuse to not use their own willpower to do things their conscience tells them not to do. “If there’s no God, I don’t have to listen to my conscience. My conscience is just my mind playing tricks on me, mastered by the society of the feebleminded believers who think certain things are wrong. My conscience does not exist.”

The sad thing is that their belief in evolution has questions that they can’t answer themselves. I used to frustrate fifty year old adults when I was a teenager before I even read the Bible with my questions to them. I would ask them questions like “if evolution is real, then how come there are still cockroaches?” The best answer I got was “well some evolved and some didn’t.” I thought evolution was constant. Why would some of the species evolve but some not? That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. There should not be dogs, birds, fish, mosquitos, or bears. If evolution really exists, then there should be at the most only a few species below us on Earth right now. Evolution is evolved. Evolved is evolution. Another question I asked was “if the Earth is four billion years old, is that enough time for an amoeba to make it all the way to a human considering there are well over a million different types of insect alone?” Seeing years of things they perceived to be facts erode on their faces was pretty sad to see. They didn’t like me much, those intellectuals, but they knew I was no fool. I heard one say “well there are different classes of species and that’s how it happened”. Well, how did they divide into those classes? What decision making ability was there to say “I’m going to turn into this now”? If a species adapts to that climate or environment, how do they change themselves? What creature was the first that said “I need a digestive system so I can nourish myself and excrete waste”, and then do it? If the first species to have nourishment from eating ate, they would die without a way to excrete the waste. That would be the end of that new species. For those who claim they are supergeniuses to the Nth degree, these questions they have not asked themselves doesn’t speak well of their thinking ability. Maybe they do think of those questions, but since this is their belief and it’s not in God, they’d rather just let it rest there and not wonder about things they don’t have the answers to. Willingly blinding themselves from their own accusation upon those they disagree, that Christians cannot think for themselves. Evolution is proof they cannot think very well. The true intellectual is the true fool. Even Bill Maher, who never fails to insult Christians, believes in evolution but admits something must have happened to get life started. DUH! Albert Einstein is known as maybe the smartest man in the last century, and he believed in God. He even went as far as to say that if anyone can look into the dark reaches of space and the glorious nature on Earth, and not realize there was a God to create it all is blind.

A favorite attack of these atheists and intellectuals upon those that believe in God say that there have been more people killed in the name of religion than anything else combined. Hogwash. Religion is just an excuse. Racism is at the crux of the matter when it comes to killing by the masses. Racism is the true reason. Religion, no matter what religion it is, is always the excuse. Before there were Irish Catholics and Protestants fighting eachother, there were the red and black Irish fighting. Before there were Sunni and Shiite, there were Arabs and Persians fighting. Look up your history. I know, again this is too easy to come up with, which reiterates my point that the true intellectual is the true fool.

Atheists say “how can you believe in something you can’t see?” I believe in love, but I’ve never seen love. I see the evidence of love everywhere, just as I see the evidence of God everywhere. Love cannot be seen by anyone. I know many atheists say that the Judeo-Christian God is invisible, like it’s written that He is somewhere in the Bible. Actually Moses saw God, but only from behind as God walked into the sanctuary as Moses and the Israelites roamed through the wilderness. Moses was not allowed to see God’s face, but he saw Him. Nowhere does it say God is invisible.

If an atheist is truly enquiring, then it’s good to talk about things of God. If you know things pretty assuringly, then speak with some authority. If you’re a product of traditional teaching, then I don’t suggest doing this because I can ask questions about your belief you cannot answer as well. This world is NOT seven thousand years old. Dinosaurs truly existed many thousands of years ago. Don’t let any traditional teacher fool you in stating otherwise. If an atheist is there to just rile you up and get under your skin by belittling what you believe in, then don’t cast your pearls. If they cannot admit the existence of their own conscience which is at no distance away from them, they aren’t ready to hear of the Truth far above their heads. God bless.
