I BELIVE WHAT I BELIEVE AND IT AINT THE USUAL BULLSHIT


Mahatma Gandhi is going to hell. Matter of fact, anyone that have done immensely good works on this earth, and happened to be non-conformist are going to hell. Wait!!!! Every other person that believes in any other religion is going right to HELL!!! I mean, If your grandma woke up early every morning, went to a food shelter, to feed the homeless and the less unfortunate, hey grandma we love you, but your ass is hell bound. And it saddens you because grandma happened to be a Buddhist. And no one that isn’t what others are going to hell, it is as simple as that. Can someone explain the meaning of life after death to me? What is it that we are missing out on? Eternal bliss after your shell is gone. Is it like that, after we have the initial death, our souls travel to another whelm where there is Poland spring water on tap, and whatever your heart desired in your waken life is just walking around? Are there harps playing, and little babies flying around with wings, to your dinner table to take your drink to you while you are at the everlasting life buffet place? There are so many people that say that heaven is great, and hell is bad, but no one can ever tell me anything other than, once place is super good, and the other is hot and scary. Ooooooh. Would it be safe to say that someone that spent the second half of their life in Antarctica, would maybe welcome that? I mean shit, after 20 years of being in below degree weather, maybe spending life in fire and brimstone may not be a bad option for them.

Do animals count in all of this? I remember the movie, that all dogs go to heaven. And that I cannot believe, because I had a couple of dogs, and they shit on my floor. That to me is a sin. And a bigger sin is that at some points, they turned around and ate it. That has got to send them to hell also. I am scared that some people may even go so far as to get their pets baptized, so that they are there with them in death as they were in life. That’s a sweet idea. But if that dog shit on their carpet, I am willing to be that the dog comes back to earth as a pit bull, and is placed in the ownership of Michael Vick. I used to get upset with super believers, I really did at one point. Now I laugh, because it is too funny to me. For months I have read the book from cover to cover, cross referenced, read ‘forbidden” books as well. A tiring thing to do when you are only slightly interested. But it becomes very interesting when you want to learn why some people behave the way they do, say the things they say, and believe what they believe. I never want to be the one to ridicule someone for what they believe in, that is their right to do so. But when it becomes arrogant, and self serving, and bigger than anything else, there is a problem with me. And so, I researched and checked. Now, I have done this before. But in 1999 as a believer, one with blind faith. I believed what was told to me. I lived like a man without the GOD given gift of reason. I am not a hater because I choose to ask questions. What type of fool does not ask questions? Especially when it comes to the cornerstone. The book, which is the cornerstone of how, we should live as a people on this planet.



If we can scrutinize something as mundane as a musical artist, like a Brittany Spears, or a Beethoven, then we surely need to question a book that is the pinnacle of how life should be lived. We have wars in its name, we have mothers killing children it its name, we have laws in its name. And all of these things have happened because no one that did these things ever used their GOD given gift, to think freely, and to question the words that are held as a fourth god in the eyes of many. I think that it is a shame that I have to subscribe to something in order to have eternal life. Because, if I am not living and breathing, how can I call it life at all. That is the definition of life. To breathe, to drink, to feel, to touch, to see. Out of all the people I have known that have passed, and moved on, never came back to me and said “Yo, this is great, I am chillin right now”. I have no proof of it. Just like many of the pundits that tell you that they speak with GOD. The same pundits that say they do, have not. I am offered no proof of either a heaven or hell. I cannot subscribe to something, or a word, or a book that keeps me in fear, or makes me feel guilt, or tells me that I was born into sin, so I have to submit to a man that looks nothing like me, or like anyone else, other than the people spread these messages as truth. Just to keep me mentally, spiritually and emotionally in slavery . I cannot subscribe to a book of fables with unicorns and dragons and genocide, and rape and countless murders of men women and children. I can no longer take the hypocrisy of what some of you take as the word of GOD and twist it to further tighten your stranglehold on the hopes and dreams of humans on this earth. The GOD that I know and love does not promote such bull crap. It is an injustice to say or type or write that these are the words of GOD, when the GOD I know loves me immensely. The GOD I know wrote 10 commandments to which a lot of you do not even abide by unless it is to your benefit. THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD.

There are no intermediates, there are no middlemen. The GOD I know is not going to damn me to hell when the works that I have done in my life outweighs the bad. The GOD I know wants all of us to prosper and does not keep us in fear, but in love for one another. Some of you have got it twisted. Some of you go from church to church to church, because you are still searching, when all along, GOD was with you, in your gut, in your mind, in the stars you see at night, and the sun that you see in the morning. If my GOD was a GOD like you read about in the book, there would be no sun, there would be no plants growing, no heat to warm us, there would be nothing. My GOD brings the sun out so that we will go on. We will have food, we will harvest, and we continue to live in GOD’s glory. Not the glory of men that are fallible. Not the glory of words that were written over 50 years after the Christ departed, but in GOD’s glory. Most of you use religion as a crutch, for something to believe in. You have never believed in yourself, so you rather believe in another human being, because you are too weak minded to believe that GOD has always been there for you, and always will. But being that you choose to not look at the Creator’s creations and loving those, you would rather put a face to it so you can somehow identify. You break the commandment of idolatry. You do not know who to pray to. When you do, you say three names. Which one is the one that is going to bless you? Which one is the one that is going to answer you? I am not an atheist, I believe in GOD, and GOD only. If there is a hell, some if not most will be there, for not following the commandments as there were written.

16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned
16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
16:18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover..

I have ailments, I’ve had a fractured shoulder for over a year(caused by a fundamentalist, no less) I challenge anyone to heal me. Or to heal anyone. Make me a believer. Because right now, most of your credit is no good. With me, and with many others. GOD BLESS!
