My life lately has been perpetually full of fury, agony, confusion, and disappointment. The people I used to associate myself with have constantly been attacking me for my views, reputation, imperfections, and personal matters if you will. I mean I understand if you disagree or have a concern about a specific issue, but they have all consisted of the same trend involving... rudeness? I suppose thats the simplest way I can put it. I could also mention hypocrisy, close-mindedness (a.k.a. ignorance), and egocentrism (a.k.a. complete selfishness! utterly disgusting).
Obviously nobody is "perfect," and fundamentally and in all actually, nobody is "right." Who decides the distinguishment between what is ethically wrong and right? I mean, if you are a Christian believer, then I suppose God indirectly tells you these things through the Bible. But if by chance the Christian religion is a myth, then there really isn't a difference between right and wrong. I suppose if you feel a sense of guilt, uneasiness, or shame, then the action/view is wrong. If you feel as though the action/view is beneficial or positive, then you assume it is right. It is crazy how personal and wound up people get about these issues, including myself. I guess it is natural human instinct to defend your opinion and morals though. Anyhow, the arguments have varied but when you analyze it down to the basis or foundation, the debate is wholly over morality. What creates your morals? I think it is perhaps how you were raised by your parents, what you were taught in school... perhaps how society/(the media) portrays the right decisions, political laws, or personal experiences. Whatever the reason, everyone has a definite set of morals and views on particular, debatable issues. I wish everyone could be open-minded and considerate about others views, however. Because nobody knows what is "right," nobody should condemn or hate someone for what they believe. Everyone has been exposed to a moral/(view?) at different depths. What I mean is, if you grew up in a Christian household and/or attended a religious school and you're a strong believer in the Christian faith, then your perspective of such matters is pretty set in stone and not very varied. The chances of you being exposed to a different take on religion is not so great, so you perceive your views as the "right" way, and those who have views apart from yours are "wrong." (Again, that was just a generalization/assumption based on experience and encounters.) I keep rambling on what is on my mind. It is kind of a repeated circle of unending reasons and philosophies. Hopefully I haven't offended anyone too much for them to curse at me again and condemn me to the dark weary place in their unconscious mind that they call Hell. I guess I'm done here. I still have so many questionable and noteworthy thoughts in my head that I'd like to share on here, but I'm too lazy and busy to continue.
Some simple yet truthful words.
