I have no official religion. I might be part of a group of people, but I don’t know what
the name of it might be.
So this is basically what I believe in.
First, from what I have seen and heard, god
is a variable. No man, women, or event has ever proven who or what god is.
Since god is a variable, I think I can choose
whomever the hell I want as my god.
I was a Buddhist at first, but when I
realized that god is a variable, I chose Sephiroth
as my first new god.
I was playing Final Fantasy VII at the time
and the only anime I knew was Dragon Ball Z.
So Sephiroth was the first one to come to my
mind as someone for me to worship. He did an exceptional job, but he kind of screwed me over.
I had a miniature pinscher dog named Laura.
I loved that dog more than everyone in my
house combined.
She “got” out one night according to my
father. I
never saw her again.
Because Sephiroth never got me any
compensation or got her to come back, I dropped him
as my god. I
thought about the next god I should worship for a
few days. I
finally decided on Ayu Tsukimiya from the anime
Kanon. Soon
after, I went to Little Tokyo in Los Angeles and
decided to buy a Japanese NewType magazine.
I had no idea that inside the issue I got,
was a pull out poster of Ayu.
Upon finding this, I quickly posted the
poster up on my wall.
Ayu-sama has been my god now for about eight
months. I
doubt she is going to screw me over.
If she can make one special event happen
before the end of this school year, she will pretty
much have the job of being my god for the rest of my
life. This
event is a very specific one, but I will not
disclose information about it until it happens.
So that’s is what is up with my beliefs.
Another thing is, I believe in
fate/destiny. Everyone
has certain events that are supposed to happen.
Death is pretty much everyone’s fate.
What you do in-between the time of your birth
and death is your decision.
When you reach an understanding about your
life, you should do whatever you feel is right. Whether you want to succeed and become the head of your own
business or you want to kick back and smoke some
weed with your friends, it’s your decision.
The general public has a belief of what is
right and what is wrong.
However, what the majority of the people
think is right is not a fact that should be
followed. Neither
is what the majority of the people think is wrong. There are rewards and consequences for actions you take.
Those kids that shot up the Columbine school,
(The following is just my opinion just like this
whole article.) they felt the need to do what they
did. They
chose that path and died.
The shooting was destined to happen.
You could say that “if so and so did
that” they wouldn’t have been in that mess, but
“so and so didn’t do that” and “that did
happen.” You
can’t change the past. (I’ll get into time
travel somewhere below.)
Paths are already set down right in front of
us. Which
ones people will take are up to them and their
environment.
I also believe in
reincarnation. The soul is, as far as I am concerned, indestructible.
Every being that dies, has its soul returned
to something that recycles the soul and is born
again. Born
as what depends on what is happening with the
planet. I
think our population problem is in a direct relation
to what humans are doing to the Earth.
As humans use up resources and kill off more
and more plants and animals, the number of people
will increase.
Also, the soul has mates.
Notice that I typed “mates.”
The number of mates your soul has will always
be a mystery. How
many you find in this lifetime is another.
I also believe that your life
will fit into 3 general categories.
The first one is called “Ying-Yang.”
This type of fate is where throughout your
life, you have equal amounts of good things
happening and bad things happening.
This fate-type has two sub-categories of its
own. One
is where your entire first part of life is bad, and
then your entire second life is all good.
The other is where good things and bad things
happen in series.
There are many examples of the
“Ying-Yang” fate-type.
I think I belong in the “Ying-Yang”
category. The
second is called “Piece of cake.”
Your life is pretty much all good and only
little sad things happen.
I consider Bill Gates to have this fate-type. The last is “You’re screwed.”
Your life is more than likely to be very
short. If
not, you can pretty much expect bad thing after bad
thing to happen.
Here are some of my thoughts
about other stuff.
I think time travel is possible.
The machine that transports you would have to
make you and the machine step outside of time. Once you are out of the boundaries of time, you won’t
forget things or gain knowledge as you move through
time. The machine won’t disassemble itself or become advanced
either. Once
stepping out of time boundaries is accomplished, I
believe it will be possible to go backwards and
forward in time.
Because of fate, anything you do in the past
or future will not have the effect that one would
hope to get. So
if someone was destined to go back in time, and he
was destined to do something that he thought would
change the future, nothing would really change
because that person was destined to do something
that made it so that the future would stay the same.
Don’t understand? On one of the new Twilight Zone episodes, a woman is sent
back in time to kill the baby that would be Adolph
Hitler. When she did kill him, the maid of the family took another
baby from the streets that looked like him and it
was that baby who turned out to be the Hitler we
knew. So
the women that went back in time didn’t change the
future. She
only ensured that it stayed the same.
The human mind is the last
subject someone should listen to me talk about.
The following will probably offend a lot of
people, but if you went to the trouble of getting to
read this, I think you and I might be on the same
page.
I dislike men.
They are idiots and morons.
I am a guy, but I am not a man.
I am a nerd.
Men have this idiocy around them that just
disgust me. What
disgust me more is that a lot of girls are attracted
to these men. This brings me to another theory I have about people.
The majority of people have too much
sociality going on with their lives.
People wanting to socialize give up a special
sense that tells them to look outside the box.
I call this the “Moron Theory.”
This is what gets people into doing stupid
things. You
know when I first heard about the planes hitting the
World Trade Centers; I was laughing my ass off.
The fact that terrorist were able to hijack a
plane with a bunch of people on board without a gun
or bomb is so stupid.
Out of four planes, only one had people smart
enough to do the right thing.
I also laughing to myself whenever I hear
about people being surprised terrorist would go this
far. This
terrorist plot is hardly something complicated to
pull off. This
was something I could have thought of myself.
I could be just like everyone else and be a
moron, but my sense of self-dignity greatly
outweighs my want to be liked by other people.
There are other nerds that are also affected
by the Moron Theory.
They too are just as stupid in the way they
act and the way they talk about things.
I don’t think that I’m like some superior
being and that all these “morons” should be
worshiping me, but I understand that people are who
they are. Whatever
shall be will be.
I am in no way a vocal person, and I have
never thrust my beliefs onto anyone.
I absolutely hate anyone who tries to
forcefully change who you are.
There is only one person who can do that, and
that is yourself.
I hate teaching things most of
the time. This
is a huge reason why I hate kids.
This is also why I do not want to have
children. I
hate hearing that I used to be a kid.
So fucking what!
If I had to go back in time and baby-sit my
younger self, I’d probably punch my younger self
after a few seconds of him being hyper.
My social theories:
“Pure,” “Hybrid,” and the “Tri-brid.”
Normal humans have 3 general areas of qualities:
their brains, their physical stuff, and their social
stuff. The
amount of these things can change anywhere between
daily to yearly or not at all.
Brains is obviously your intelligence and wisdom.
Physical stuff are things like your health,
strength, and reflexes.
Social stuff are your charm and abilities to
converse with people. Everyone has different amounts of each. I, myself, have a large amount of brains and very little
physical stuff.
I have an insignificant amount of social
stuff. Thus,
I am a “Pure.”
(This wasn’t so about 9 or 10 years.
Before, I had a huge amount of social stuff.
With the little brains I had, I was able to
reassess the amounts.)
Pures basically have only a large amount of
one thing.
Hybrids have equal and large amounts of 2 of the 3
things. In
most cases, it will be physical stuff and social
stuff.
The Tri-brid is very uncommon. Someone who has large amounts of all 3 things.
Further analysis goes into the stable and unstable
types.
Stable types are people who have the unchanged
amounts for long periods of time.
Their environment has little to no effect to
change their amounts.
Unstable types are people who can change between
pure and hybrid.
Their environment can, and usually will,
change the amounts.
With this, I explain to myself why and how people
socialize. It’s
pretty useless to other people.
Example: My friend, who I will call Muffinman, is an
unstable brains and social hybrid.
Okay, lets get to some bigger
stuff. I
believe that there is an organization called the
Illuminati, and I believe they are controlling what
goes on in the world to a certain extent.
What extent?
I don’t know.
I believe HIV/AIDS was allowed
to be released to control the human population.
Whoever found it was a little off their
rocker and thought that this is what could solve
overpopulation.
With all I heard of the origin of HIV/AIDS, I
believe that this is the reason why it was allowed
to spread.
The Bible, that all the
different type of Christians read, to me seems like
it was a project by some aliens. I think aliens played around with early civilization.
They gave humans some advanced knowledge to
start us off and interfered with humans whenever
they felt like it.
The further humans advanced, the less they
interfered and just watched over Earth.
The Roswell incident was covered up by the
Illuminati.
Sometime ago, I said I was
going to put a “Shoju Dictionary” up.
I’m too lazy to create another thing for
it, so I’m just going to put it here. The following words are defined by me. To me, this is what these words mean.
Potential
– This is a stupid word.
Everything has the potential to do/become
something, and when I say everything, I mean
everything single piece of matter in the whole
fucking universe.
Examples:
You have persons A, B, and C.
A is a person with intelligence and charisma,
B is a retard, and C is a chimpanzee. Let’s say they are all 12 years old. As long as they are alive, they have the potential to do or
become anything.
A could become the next president of the
U.S., but so could B.
B is retarded, but does that mean B can never
surpass the limits that are thought by everyone
else? C
is not even human, but C could also become
president. Something
could happen to C that makes him a sentient being.
Who has any proof that it can’t happen?
Everything has potential.
Telling someone that they have potential
means jack shit.
You can look at their current environments,
behavior, and any other signs, and then you can make
estimates of what they can or can’t do.
However, you can only make estimates.
You do not know the exact future.
It is very unlikely that a 70 lbs. piece of
rock will suddenly come to life and terrorize the
world, but there is still a possibility of it
happening.
Luck – In terms
of competing, there is no such thing as luck.
You either win or you lose.
Hate – This is
a word thrown around too much.
To truly hate someone, is to completely
ignore them, but if the chance to kill him/her ever
came up(and you could legally get away with it), you
would do it without thinking.
Hating someone and always talking shit about
them for a very long period of time is not true
hatred. This
is envy.
Let’s see.
I also believe the “heart” is humans’
greatest weakness. Depending on the person’s will, it could also manifest
their greatest strength.
The “heart” is a very dangerous thing to
play with. Should
you decide to take it upon yourself to mess with
someone’s heart, you must be prepared to face that
person as if he/she were a god.
Never ever underestimate a person’s
strength when their heart is involved.
Underestimating could lead you to your
demise.
I think I wrote somewhere in my profile that I
didn’t have a heart.
The truth is I do have such a thing.
For people who do not have a “heart,”
their greatest weaknesses vary greatly from person
to person.
Well, this is it for now.
I am coming up on my 17th year of
living. What
I have written above are some of the things I have
come to believe about life, the universe, and
everything else.
To think the way I do, I have given up on a
great social life with many friends and a good
romantic life with the ladies.
Though I know that I will be alone in my
future, I would never want anything else.
I guess I’ll finish this article with a
quote. I
have no idea who said it though.
“If you think you know
everything there is to know, you have failed.” ~

If you just scrolled to the
bottom and didn’t want to read any of what I
wrote, you could just take Douglas Adam’s answer
to life, the universe, and everything:
42.
