License to Thrill

Whatever poison's in this bottle will leave me broken sore and stiff. But it's the genie at the bottom who I'm sucking at. He owes me one last wish.

I still haven't found what I'm looking for.

This is my rant on religion. Religion is man's poor interperetation of what God wants. If you want to know what God wants read the bible. I don't need some asshole telling me what God wants from me. Catholic, Assemblies of God, Mormon, Babtist, you're all stupid. Why are you following some set of rules made up by some dumb-ass who was elected or otherwise picked from a bunch of men. If you want some rules to follow read the bible. Religion limits our limitless God.
"Jesus, Jew, Mohammad - it's true. Jesus, Jew, Mohammad - it's true. All sons of Abraham.-Bono.
Have you ever thought that your religion may be flawed. Well it is. Because religion is mans ideatherefore is inherently flawed. If God is love why is there religious warfare? Because people are stupid.
"I'm uncomfortable in churches because the Christ I love and read about in the Gospels is often not in the churches. Remember, I come from Ireland and I've seen the damage of religious warfare. I am a believer. I don't wear the badge on the outside but it is on the inside."-Bono. "Distance does not decide who is your brother and who is not. The church is going to have to become the conscience of the free market if it's to have any meaning in this world - and stop being its apologist." Bono.
While I'm at it. What is up with the hatred towards gays? Are they not people too?
"I really do not understand the hatred towards gays...it's awful. Some people say they're sinners, and that they don't deserve the right to be married and so on - and they use God's words as an excuse for all of this hate. That's ridiculous; if God is anything, it is love - no matter what race, gender, or sexual orientation. Everyone is created equal in the eyes of the Lord."-Bono
We all sin. So do gays. If His love isn't enough to cover thier sins, then it isn't enough to cover ours.
To clear some things up: I have no problem with tradition. If you feel that not eating meat on friday is a way to remember Jesus dying for us great. If you think that one has too or else their singing you're an ass.
Then thier is religious bashing. You people are the worst. How can an AG member ridicule Catholics about the pope when they have some dumb fuck in missorri giving them a set of rules.
This rant was not edited so hold your comments on my spelling, syntax and such.

    even though its a bit rough around the edges I still have to agree with the essence of it all.
    by the way, you can welcome me back now. myspace is put on the back burner and my blogger is brought to the foreground.

    You and your music quotes. I got one for you.

    Now is the time for me to rise to my feet
    Wipe your spit from my face
    Wipe these tears from my eyes

    I've got to take my life back
    One chance to make it right
    I've gotta have my voice be heard
    And bring meaning to this life

    'Cause I'm trusted for nothing
    I've been led astray
    I've been treading justice
    But I won't accept this fate
    I've done things I regret
    And it's time to reverse the roles
    Now I just wanna make it on
    All the prophecies I have been
    I will be...


    Chew on that one music boy.
