Impossible to watch the news. Nothing but post-canonization of a supposed saint. Helped "free the world of communism". Another hero akin to Reagan. One feels like screaming bloody murder. Indeed. How many millions or hundreds of millions of souls were caused to suffer for the sanctified opinions of this man? How long will those of us who believe in facing reality honestly and with dignity have to bow before the dream merchants, the salesmen of metaphysical tripe? How long must we watch as those around us choke on the fodder, spitting it in our faces when we question the absurdity and hyprocrisy of it all? How long will it be completely acceptable and politically correct to overtly or covertly condemn the worldview of hundreds of millions by insisting we all shall suffer eternally in some fantasy hell?...this, while non-believers are harshly judged for even mildly questioning the stories and foundations squeezed out of the metaphysical madness that abounds.
Hay que joderse.

God has been dead since the existentialists. What's all the religious 'relativism' about in the west anyway? Yes, I am a practicing Roman Catholic, but We fuck with condoms, we act gay if our psyche tells us too, we take the body of christ into our mouths but we'll think twice before leaving our children alone with a 'man of the cloth' for fear that he may be a supressed, celibate, pedafile. All of our 'truths' are tainted. Religious men in sex scandals, sports heros win with dope and steroids, little girls must identify with sexual objectifications and the overall climate is a media blitz of morality and innocence. Give us all a break. Where is the outrage? Why aren't more Americans running through the streets screaming?

Breathe in
Breathe out

Thus shall ye think of this fleeting world
A star at dawn, a bubble in a stream
A flash of lightning in a summer cloud
A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream.
