Given that we were ourselves primitive and primarily based on emotions before the development of advanced intelligence, and the future to which we are headed to - one of logic and calculated decisions...
Would you choose to be a "Robot" or "Animal"?
Senseless instinctual emotions, or calculated thought and action?
If emotions define our humanity, it is also the source of hate and anger. But also of love.
If we were to lose our "humanity", we would achieve unprecedented progress with minimal losses and calculated risks without having to worry about emotions and ethics.
A very difficult choice indeed. Where are we headed?

The Religious
On why i never believe in religion. Why? Because it satisfies your deepest insecurities.
Telling you that ultimately no matter how wretched you are, something or some IDEA out there loves you.
Unconditional love. Now, beat that?
And thus masses are flocking to religion because yes, it gives you what you need, it nourishes your soul. It strokes your ego. It tells you that all those losers out there who put you down can never get past your "Lord" god. And such people, are very inconsiderate people.
And does GOD really need to exist for that to happen? No, all that's needed is that YOU believe that you are loved unconditionally, even if its by something that doesn't exist. You are loved by something that doesn't exist, which you believe does - and that is very applicable. Face it, you need religion because of your deep rooted insecurities which you refuse to face, yet want to find salvation for.
On why i am INFURIATED. Why?
Because, right here, people provide for you... give you love, care and concern. And because of this idea of god and religion that you have, you believe that your true family is UP THERE, and what of those around you that truly wish you well and care for you? Naw, mr-big-man up there comes first. And speaking of which, why is he a man? Why is he a father? Because in olden times, it was a bloody male dominated society, that's why god is a man. Like doesn't that reek of "made up story" already?
HI!!! Your friends are here!!! Wake up! *Waves Hands* Stop facing ONLY the building (church) that you believe is the stairway to heaven. While you are on earth, fulfill your duties to those around you. If god is truly omniscient and omnipotent, he doesn't need your money, cash, love more than the poor people of this world do. Ok?
Even if people want to believe that there IS a god. Right. Ok. Well, you're not in heaven yet, so start acting your part of being on earth.

The popularity of creativity
Why does the man with the imaginative child's mind produce works of immense popularity? Why do theme parks and fantastical topics seem to enthrall even the most grown of men?
Because, in everyone of us is a child - whether repressed, smothered or not. And the child is who we are. Culture and societal norms have shaped our minds, thoughts and actions to be that befitting of an "adult". Occassionally that little child in us throws a tantrum, demanding to be let out, that it gets its way. To come out and engage in the wonders and fantasies again.
And of what comparability is a child but to an animal? Thus it comes as no surprise that our distinction from other animals in the animal kingdom is merely that of a psychological one.

Fresh!
After being triggered to look at my blog again by Ms.A (i'm glad that she still appears in my life),
i realised what a sod i was and how i was only talking about emo stuff.
So right now, as an INTP, i shall write about objective viewpoints instead!
Welcome to my fresh new blog! It shall prove its freshness not through the same old skin that you are seeing because i was too lazy to change, but on the topics that you are going to be reading.
p.s: It's not that feelings are totally unwanted, it would just be a less dramatic world without them.
