Believe It or Not

Believe it. Or not. People spend their entire lives believing in all sorts of things that both are and are not real. And unless you happen to be omnipotent and "godlike," you're really just another believer. Even if all you believe in is putting down everyone who doesn't believe in everything you happen to not believe in.

Basically, ANYONE who claims to have all the answers, based on their politics, religion, atheism, science, or whatever they do or don't believe in, is simply trying to blow smoke up everybody's rectum - and thereby gain legions of faithful followers who share their beliefs and non-beliefs.

NO, YOU DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING.

You can get educated and you can voice your opinion, but you still don't know everything. Or rather, you can TRY to get educated. There is a lot of misinformation out there, so try not to get too carried away by the latest snippet of propaganda that trips your trigger. After all, we are all susceptible to half truths and propaganda.

This is what it means to be human. This is what makes you, in the end, just like everybody else who simply doesn't have all the answers. Sooner or later, everyone plays a part in the great human drama - whether you fancy yourself Jesus, Judas, a disciple of someone else' school of thought, or just another asshole screaming, "crucify him!"
