What are you waiting for?
Why is it that people who generally believe in conspiracy theories are the same type of people to scoff at anyone "dumb enough" to have blind faith and practice an organized religion? It's odd to me because they'd be more than happy to remind someone with faith that there is no definitive proof of their God, and yet they themselves subscribe to these wild and complex theories that also lack definitive proof. I guess I'm just not understanding the breakdown of logic. How can someone who refuses to believe the conjecture displayed by one group, accept it from another?
I myself am simply not religious. In fact a younger me would have been quick to mock someone with blind faith. More recently I'm apt to be open minded and understanding. Not so much because I believe that most people are the product of their environment, or even that everyone needs to believe in something. But more so to avoid having the exhausting conversation that follows with voicing your disbelief in organized religion. I'm the same way when it comes to conspiracy theories. Actually I'm even a little more patient and willing to listen to them because they're usually a creatively rad story. Sometimes they even have photos and videos!! Then again the bible has some gnarly stories too. Maybe if the apostles had had access to the technology we have today, they could have shown people some photos/videos that were taken out of context, or out of focus, and inspired a shit storm of youtube hits and shares. Regardless, I'm still of the final opinion that whatever half-cocked bullshit presented to me is exactly that. Half-cocked bullshit. My disbelief holds no prejudices when it comes to misinformation. Whether it be water into wine or FEMA run by an intergalactic agent attempting to disarm us to grease the wheels of an alien invasion. It's bull-puckey, bud!
Not to too drastically switch gears, but when it comes to the Westboro Baptists, I have a completely closed mind. I despise the fact that I have to share a planet with those people. I believe they should all be dragged to a Justin Bieber concert and raped repeatedly, and with great vigor, at the hands of violent convicts chosen by the families of any ones funeral they've ever protested. Seriously. There is no "theory" about who these people are and what they are up to. It's a FACT that these bible eating weirdos are begging to be purged from this Earth and taken far far away from us sinners. I don't even care who does it. Whether it be Jesus coming back on his holy boomerang tour, aliens, or a fucking hit squad made up of a chupacabra, bigfoot, and the ghost of the "original" Paul McCartney. I would love to see someone deliver them to the afterlife...fuckin' Gangnam Style!
