So I sit here writing not feeling 100% and a few thoughts have crossed my brain. I will now share them in the hopes that they will entertain and possibly cause thinking to happen in the world at large. Yes I know not likely but one can always hope that ones words will inspire, even when they are in ones opinion less then inspirational. So on we go a bit random today but life is like that sometimes.
Thought Number One: If someone says they support evil, do they still have the right to take the moral high ground? My immediate answer is “No”, I mean this seems like a no brainier, but I have recently been told I was essentially a drug using pervert by people who also think that evil gets things done, and should be used in moderation. At first I held back thinking this might be a problem with the definition of evil. Then I realized that ANY support for what you consider evil places you on the moral low ground. Even if we disagree on what evil is if you support it and I don’t you are immoral by the dictionary definition once you support “evil”.
Thought Number Two: (triggered by attempts to contact old friends) If you don’t want to communicate with someone and you don’t tell them you are a coward. Apparently my difficulty in contacting old friends in the past has pissed some of said old friends off. While I find that sad, I have only my self to blame. That said in two cases I have received no response but have got indirect word that I am “no longer considered a friend”. Now mind you indirect word could be wrong or a lie, so I’m more curious then mad, but IF it’s true that seems cowardly to me. A simple “go away” while would get your point across, to not answer is to simply make me think my method has failed, which in one case is what I still think.
Thought Number Three: (this one is political) If you are going to be the “Family Values” party, you need to have candidates who didn’t divorce their wives for a prettier girl or not pay so little attention to there teen daughters that said daughters get pregnant.
Thought Number Four: (again political) You can not support the troops by voting for the guy who voted against the GI bill. He did the opposite of supporting the troops and so do you if you vote for him.
Thought Number Five: (again political) Three and four DO NOT suggest that the other guy is either “family values” or “pro-troops” it only states the guy suggested isn’t and only fools would say he is.
Thought Number Six: Humming birds would be dangerous beasts if only slightly larger. The darn things are fearless and keep buzzing my head as I write this. (They also seem to be curious abut me as long as the lap top keeps me in place)
Thought Number Seven: A proper Christian church couldn’t support either major political party in the U.S. Mind you it has been a while since I went to a christen church for any thing other then Easter, Christmas, and other special events, but neither party (or at least it’s leaders) seems to be particularly Christian. Now I am not saying a person who is christen couldn’t vote for either, they may feel forced to vote for what they view as the lesser evil. However I have a hard time seeing how either party could be supported by a proper Christian church.
Thought Number Eight: If my tax dollars can go to faith based Christian programs that are anti-homosexual then a Christians can go to faith based pagan programs that are pro-homosexual.
Thought Number Nine: I need to lighten up seven of the last eight thought were WAY to deep for a happy go lucky guy like my self.
Thought Number Ten: I like dark chocolate and mint. Further more I seem to be craving it as I type this. I mean a lot. Any body got some. Mint fudge would work. So would Girl Scout Thin Mints. Mmmmmmm Mint and Chocolate.
Thought Number Eleven: It is difficult to be torn between the need to give an area a comic book store and the need to get out of said area. This is even harder when running said store might (or might not) make living in said area tolerable.
Thought Number Twelve: Twelve is my lucky number, so I should stop at a dozen of these thoughts. OH look I have achieved my goal. Huzzah for me.
