Since I became a member of interference.com I?ve posted over 600 opinions, questions, and theories. I?ve never had a chance, nor the time to compile my universal opinion on life, so tonight, as I sit here awake at 2:24am, I will attempt to express my inner-workings.
I?m not what you would call a ?smart man?. I don?t acclaim to be better than most people. I don?t claim to be wise, old mind. What I do profess to is the idea that I?m better than I give myself credit for. I see things differently than most people, yet I feel confident in my assumption that my opinions are often in line with the silent majority; those people that simply don?t care about life (politics, spirituality, etc) and never feel compelled to express their opinions. This apathy is most likely due to a preconceived notion that their opinions are useless and worthless in a world full of backdoor dealings, and an insurmountable amount of greed and corruption. How else could you explain Americans (to be as general as possible) attitude toward their very lives that are going nowhere fast.
I want to bring forth my opinions on the following areas of life: Religion, politics, love, sports, entertainment, and the realities of living, which basically fits everything else into one, concise category.
Religion: This topic is perhaps the most controversial of all life?s mysteries. There?s Christianity, the Nation of Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Agnosticism, and the list could go on and on forever. We all know that the best way to cover this category is to simply say, ?to each his/her own?. My theory is that nobody knows what will happen after each of us dies and enters the ?second phase of life?, so the discussion is moot. That?s it. You don?t know what the true faith is, and neither do I. Got it? It?s that simple. We can argue ?til the cows come home, but the fact will always remain that nobody knows what God is, or what God wants. Each religion, which I might add was created by a group of MEN, not women (which should eliminate most, if not all credibility) is based on a human interpretation, and nothing else. God did not write one word of any of these religion?s doctrines. Doesn?t it seem that God would actually write his word. Isn?t ?he? all-knowing? Doesn?t he have the ability to tell his creation how to live? Why haven?t these question been put to rest. The answer is obvious: It can?t be answer.
Everything dealing with the concept of religion revolves around control. It?s mind-control. It?s telling people what to do to be absolved from sin. It tells you what you can and can?t say, what you can and can?t do. It?s the purest form of human manipulation, and ignoring this will lead you to a life of denial. This is true. This is the gospel of Danospano. You don?t think my gospel has merit? Well, guess what? God came before me last night, and told me to write this bullshit. How do like them apples? You don?t like those thoughts? You?re going to hell. Why? Because you?re not following the ?TRUE? gospel.
Get my point? I couldn?t make it anymore simple.
Main Point: Believe in yourself. Believe in living in peace and harmony with your fellow man and woman. Not because you?re ?Bible? tells you to, but because that?s the only way to exist without constant fear of war and murder. Do it because for all we know you might only have one life to live, and deploring your barbaric tendencies will make you stronger and create relaxation and tranquility within your community.
Politics: This is a topic that by definition deals with the study of power struggles. That?s all you need to know. The power of who?s fucking who, and how. (Don?t you love how I use those dirty words? Those words that make small children giggle, and make Christian fundamentalists gasp). I used to think that politics was just the word people used to describe their President?s party, his policies, his beliefs, etc. I thought the word referred to the way things were in Washington. The way things got done. Today, however, I think of the word negatively. I think of illegal, smarmy, corruption, under-the-table dealings and smooching. Basically, how can we spin a story so that the mass collection of constituents won?t get too angry and overthrown our system of screwing the people out of their money and livelihood.
Politics in American, to be more specific, but could be applied to pretty much any worldly power, is in the hands of few puppets who do the bidding for the ruling class, the bourgeois, the upper-crust, the Bill Gates, the Kenneth Lays?, the top 1%. These elitist puppet masters control every government in every country. These men and women who have sold their soul or have compromised their beliefs in the name of power determine every decision that affects your social life. (Remember the mentioning of power struggles earlier in this post).
If you want justice. If you want freedom. Brothers and sisters, it?s too late, and if you think you?ll ever get it, you?re kidding yourself. No matter how we look at any government, the rich will always take control of its direction. Money talks, it will always talk. So the only way to change things is to live in another world. A world where GOD deems man to an elevated state of mind, where money isn?t the end-all, where love conquers all, and where greed isn?t a word or concept.
I have learned these things, the hard way. I used to think there was hope for humanity, but it?s too late. There never was and there never will be an escape from their destination. We?re all living on a dead end street, where we hope there will be an answer, a positive answer.
This lack of knowledge can be seen if our politically correct language. We hope that if we simply ignore the truth, we?ll prosper and achieve levity and greater understanding and civility. If we change the way we talk, we?ll change the way we think. We?ll I must admit that it?s a valiant effort, but human nature hasn?t changed in 5000 years, and it?s changin? now.
Main Point: Politics has taught us to turn off our minds. We all know that government can?t change things for the better. Criminals will always find a way to cheat millions of stockholders out of their pension plans and retirement funds, Congressmen will always find a way to take brides, no matter how many Trafficant?s get caught. The sooner we face these facts, the sooner we can focus on the important, valuable aspects of life. U2 would call these the thing you can?t leave behind.
Love: This changes for everyone. We all hope to find true love. We all hope to make love and not war, but how often do we control our emotions? I happen to have found a women that defines love. She?s always there for me when I need her, and would like to think that I?ve been there when she needed me. It?s a beautiful thing, and I think that within the last year I?ve discovered what love truly is. The fact remains that I see, much to often, the antithesis of love plaguing our streets.
Love isn?t banging a hottie from the local bar. It?s not settling for the only person that will tolerate us. It?s not being with someone because they have the perfect body, or the perfect job, or the perfect life. Love is just like the old film said, ?Love is never having to say you?re sorry?. It?s devotion. It?s looking, or even thinking about that special someone and being completely vulnerable at all times. If you think you?ve found that feeling, you might be on the right track. Otherwise, keep looking.
