albeit a very persistent one" - Albert Einstein<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Today I was walking down the alley towards my house and I was thinking about Evangelicals and people of Monotheistic traditions whom are all about sharing their faith and "saving" people. It got me thinking, they aren't doing it to show that others' beliefs are invalid. It seems to me they are doing it to prove to themselves that their own beliefs are valid. They really aren't out there trying to convert people because they want to save them (even though thats what they think in their minds I'm sure), they are doing it to confirm to themselves that what they believe is "right."<br /><br />That's all. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:travellinman:1976 2005-09-24T20:10:26Z 2005-09-24T20:10:26Z Travellin' Man - Mos Def I do know that whatever decision I make will basically come down to the "facts" and "merits" of the individual religions/philosophies and not the actions and attitudes of the adherents. While I am valuing everyone's opinions and information they are giving me. Some of these people (of all faiths, etc) are assholes. <br /><br />When someone comes seeking answers because they are on a heartfelt mission and you respond to them with suspicion and attitude, it's like "What the fuck? Get off your high horse!"<br /><br />I have no idea what is wrong with some people. I'm just glad I have the insight not to make any final decisions based upon people's attitudes because seriously some people are hurting their faiths with their actions. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:travellinman:1708 2005-09-23T15:29:46Z 2005-09-23T15:29:46Z <a name="cutid1"></a><br /><br /><center><table style="border:1px solid black"><tr><td align="center"><font size="3">You are a <center><br><font size="4"><b>Social Moderate</b></font> <br><font shmolor="#a8a8a8" size="3">(50% permissive)</font><br></center><br>and an... <center><br><font size="4"><b>Economic Liberal</b></font> <br><font shmolor="#a8a8a8" size="3">(15% permissive)</font><br></center><br>You are best described as a:<br><br><font size="+2"><u> <center><b>Strong Democrat</b></center></u></font><br><table height="375" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="375" background="http://is1.okcupid.com/graphics/politics/chart_political.gif" border="0" name="thetable"> <tbody> <tr height="299"> <td width="169"></td> <td width="205"></td></tr> <tr height="75"> <td width="169"></td> <td valign="top" align="left" width="205"><img src="http://is1.okcupid.com/graphics/politics_you.gif" border="0"></td></tr></tbody></table><br><table height="375" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="375" background="http://is1.okcupid.com/graphics/politics/chart_basic.jpg" border="0" name="thetable"> <tbody> <tr height="299"> <td width="169"></td> <td width="205"></td></tr> <tr height="75"> <td width="169"></td> <td valign="top" align="left" width="205"><img src="http://is1.okcupid.com/graphics/politics_you.gif" border="0"></td></tr></tbody></table><br><br>Link: <a href="http://www.okcupid.com/politics"><b>The Politics Test</b></a> on <a href="http://www.okcupid.com"><b>OkCupid Free Online Dating</b></a></td></tr></table></center><br /><br /><br /><br />Wow i'm right smack dab in the middle of Gorbachev! haha</font> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:travellinman:668 2005-09-22T02:54:38Z 2005-09-22T02:54:38Z Mos Def mix cd 1 So far my study has been going pretty well.
