I have a hard time writing here. I like to think I spend a great deal of time thinking about arcane and interesting things. But the thing is, I never really come to any big conclusions. As soon as I think I've settled on a good point of view to have, I rethink it.
Ideas that have undergone many revisions through out the course of the day have usually been argued to death and found to be so much non-sense by the time I'm anywhere near a computer.
Somethings I have continued to believe in over the years are:
1) Enthropy. Things wear thin. Systems corrupt themselfs. Though the scientific principal rests in the area of thermal dynamics I believe it holds true for ideas, ideals, and cultures. All things are dieing, in a sense all things that have been are all dead. "Things change" people say. But they don't really change, that is, one thing dosn't become another (be it idea or matter) rather parts die away and are hastly replaced by whatever might be around. After awhile all of the origional has been replaced, part by part, leaving something else. Religion is a good example. What most people generaly refer to as Christianity has very little to do with what Christ was going on about. Before his body had even cooled people begain to add "official" truths that gave them an avenue to whatever they really wanted out of life, sometimes well meaning but often selfish.
2)Though a person can be good, people are bad. I've met alot of good people that I'm happy and proud to know. But I've yet encountered any organization that truely was. Reguardless of whatever principals they were formed under corruption will always distort it over time (see #1).
3) School sport teams are there to keep all the truely evil people together as an organized force of oppression and terror. People who activly support these monsters are eather wholy blind or sadistic ass holes.
4) There's something wrong with my world view.
