Why atheists shouldn't fear religion's arguments So a bit of an unique topic this time around. It is widely believed that religion cannot be argued against. This is not true. In fact I would encourage all attempts at doing so. However it is true that you cannot win an argument. This often discourages atheists from arguing their position, however I think you shouldn't be distraught at all. After all you have the upper hand.
First of all, I won't even claim God does not to exist as the argument for why we have the upper hand, although I do believe it to be true based on the fact that it has no real point in the universe as indicated by the advances in science. I cannot prove this because a
ComplexMy head and my heart are at war.

The sole cause of my dilemma is this: stark loneliness. Yeah, that tired old bag of cliche. Loneliness, in all practicality, is easy to avoid and easy to overcome. Simple: talk to people. When you feel lonely, you surround yourself with friends, family. It's a wonder how this feeling ever came into mankind's complex. The problem lies deeper; for two reasons precisely, the matter becomes complicated. Perhaps one is too shy or overwhelmingly spineless, therefore unable to convince one's self into being more sociable. More painfully, perhaps one has family, has friends one can talk to to feel less ostracized, ho
With Regards to Holden CaufieldI didn't write an ending to last year. I was under the assumption that because people might not respond to what I wrote the way I wanted them to, or in reality no one would respond at all, that it really wasn't worth noting. That search for validation has been a bigger theme in my life than I had noticed. I wasted so much time. I thought that everything proceeding the last two years was all a rouse to bring me here. Adulthood had promised something other than the misery that I had put myself through my entire life.

What a joke.

I've always wanted was a way out of feeling like I do. Instead of fighting, bloodying my body till skin showed bon
DreamcatcherAs a child I learned not to sleep; that when you sleep you are vulnerable to everything. I was terrified of drifting into the unconscious, of facing the wall as I slept, of staring into the darkness. I'd clutch my blanket and beg my dreamcatcher to bless me with one good dream until exhaustion took me under. I'd wake with screams and tears and revelations of a life I thought was perfect. My dreams made me alone, took everyone that comforted me away. No mom, she loved someone else; no brothers, the vampires took them away; no family, I couldn't save them from their doom. I'd drift upon endless seas and let the water take me; not believing I'd
Through My PoemsThrough my poems I'd hope you'd see how
I really feel, how I really felt, and
all the things I never had the chance
to say, and all the things I'll never have
the chance to say.
Through the words dancing on the page
I hope you'll see how the things I hate
about you           outweigh
the things I love about you.
Protesting at FuneralsI don't understand people.  People who think that it's okay to be creul because somebody doesn't believe in what they do; ignorant people whose beliefs have blinded them so much so that they abuse their right to protest and go out to be completely disrespectful to those who have faught and died for their country.  I'm not asking for them to stop having their beliefs, but protesting the war outside of a soldiers funeral is a little bit abusive don't you think?  What would possess one to be that inhumane as to protest and degrade and insult somebody because what?  They chose to fight for their country and they chose to protect their rights and
Just Started RainingIt just started raining outside. The gentle, staccato hum... all one sound even though you can hear all the raindrops as they hit. My room's a mess. I should probably clean it. There are lots of things i should probably do... Like practice stairway to heaven on my guitar or my blues scales on trumpet, or do my homework project for Spanish, or call the friend i haven't talked to in ages, or dance in the rain, or glide off the roof, or go help a hobo, or talk to the sky... stuff like that.

I love making eye contact with random strangers, like the guy taking my order in McDonald's or the kid leaving the band competition, or the person walking d
High ExpectationsSuch high expectations they've put upon themselves, such high, high, high standards they've set for themselves. So much pressure to not just be good, but to be better than the others.  They don't care really how they do, so long as they do better than anyone else.  And I stay out of this competition, I sit to the side and watch them kill each other for first place.

They set such high expectations for themselves, just to be better than the others.  And I watch them battle over each other for first place, just for the recognition.

And I watch.  And I laugh.
No Longer a KidNo Longer a Kid

When did I first realize that I'm not really a kid anymore? Hell, I don't know. It could be any number of times. It could've been the first time I was left home without a babysitter; that was pretty big. Maybe it was the time my grandmother died, and my dad told me the less flattering things about her. Or perhaps when I started to understand sex and my dad decided I was mature enough to share his favorite naughty jokes with me. It's possible that I realized it when I started babysitting my little siblings, or on the day when that jerk Puberty snuck up on me and hit me with body hair, growth spurts and sex-drive. It might be t
Gone Or Not, Now I'm Confused.So, it was a nother boring day at school and I hand just gotten home, "Stupid bus, why does it take forever to get to my house!?" I yell outloud ranting again. "Meh, what ever, I think I'll see if anyone's online," I think to myself and set my books down and go to the computer. I logged on and went to my friends list, "Eh... No one's on, figures," I sighed. Then I noticed I had mail, "It better not be more friend requests, I freaking hate random friend requests..." I clicked on the picture of a letter and noticed I had a message from Victoria, it read:

"Ali, where are you!? D:"

I laughed a little a typed my reply, we're best friends so even

Für heute wohl die beste animation die ich mir angesehen habe. Und auch die Längste die ich heute gesehen habe, desto länger desto schwerer. Tolle Arbeit!
