First and foremost a brief explanation of the title: I am Atheist and for the most part I'm going to talk about things I hate and things that bother me, it's in my nature.
- Do I hate religion? Yes.
- Do I care what you believe in? No, it is your choice same as it is mine.
- Am I here to convince people to convert to my beliefs? No. But that doesn't mean things I say and the way I say them won't have that kind of connotation to them. But I have no intention nor desire to purposely proselytize anyone beyond saying what I think.
- To reiterate I am an ATHEIST not a Satanist because that would require me to believe there is actually a god. I do not. I may use symbols such as Baphomets, Pentagrams and 666, but to me they are just that, symbols. Moreover, they're symbols of my overall distaste for religion and not indications that I ascribe to some kind of Satanic beliefs or religious beliefs whatsoever.
- When viewing this blog you will likely be forewarned that the context herein is for an adult audience. This is there because my target audience is more an over 18 crowd than it is anything beyond that. The things I will say/post will likely offend, insult and at times disgust people. I refuse to speak in euphemisms and depending on my mood/level of frustration and feelings on a particular subject, I will likely use an excess of profanities and overall vulgar language/analogies.
- Although I have my beliefs and in many cases I believe fairly strongly in them, I do not necessarily have a closed mind nor do I consider myself infallible. Not everything is going to be the same and my opinion might eventually change. Does it make me a hypocrite? Well, maybe. But I am human and I live in learn just like many people do. People change, opinions change, just because I don't flat out acknowledge it later on when I do doesn't mean I don't realize it. I don't need you to point that out for me.
- This brings me to the point of comments. I don't really like them, especially with some of the stuff I cover, because I have very little tolerance for peoples stupidity. There are going to be idiots that want to tell me I'm going to burn in hell or that they'll pray for me, or that their overly-liberal and overly-conservative beliefs are far better than my more moderate beliefs. I don't really care, I cannot stress that enough. I don't mind having a discussion or debate about anything, you learn a lot more that way both about people and about whatever the subject at hand is. However, it seems that in this day and age people are more prone to being complete ignorant, narrow-minded fools that only wish to impose their beliefs and provoke people that think differently into a fight or insult war. That is not why I'm here.
- Which now leads to the ultimate purpose of this blog. To be honest I think blogging is pretty lame and I never imagined I'd start one of my own outside of the ones provided on social networking sites. But I feel I'd rather stray away from those sites in general and so here I am. The idea here is not to simply impose my beliefs on people (as intent as I may seem on wanting people to see it as I do) but to start the discussion. I want people to be outraged to be awakened, offended, and irritated...go show a friend the blog and piss and moan about the idiot I am. But more importantly discuss the issue at hand, define what you believe in, read more into the subject matter and form your own opinion if you don't necessarily have one. But think about it, talk about it, agree or disagree it doesn't matter. I'm here to write down my thoughts whether political, theological, philosophical or just plain observations or experiences I've had and hopefully give people some food for thought if they so choose to read it.
