| In response to the movie Legion coming out in 2010.. I'm guessing some guy who seemed to be an atheist commented back to me on YouTube. He apparently thinks the movie is stupid too, which gives me some faith in mankind but I thought I'd share the letter I sent him. I guess I've outed myself as a believer in Christ. I know what you must be thinking: "Sam, how can you be a lesbian and be a believer in Christ?" Well, the short of it is explained in the following e-mail. I really don't like discussing my personal beliefs, especially considering that I am a mean person who likes picking on other mean people online. It's childish and insane.. but it helps me keep my sanity. I just don't think I'm the best spokesperson for God.. or anyone really which is why I keep my personal beliefs to myself. Life is a journey, we must all come to our own conclusions otherwise we are just following someone else's lead. I'm all for educating people and clearing up any misconceptions I can and even offering my view, but I refuse to tell people what to think. My blog is my personal opinion and views of the world as I experience it. That being said.. people make me sad.
The e-mail as follows:
I think it's a movie made by people who clearly hate God. It's nice to see some.. I'm guessing atheist or agnostic person, who also sees how retarded this movie is.
The problem me and my friend have is that the villain is not only God but in this fictional version of reality they've chosen the God of the old testament since the girl is supposed to be I guess giving birth to the messiah. It's just that if that's the God you are using then.. according to your own fictional story.. he created the Earth and the rest of the universe. So why doesn't he just flood the Earth again, use fire and sweep the planet clean or make the sun go supernova or just blink it out of existence. This is the point a lot of people don't seem to be getting. I mean, when you make the villain GOD.. I'm gonna find a really hard time believing he's gonna take such a rudimentary route and fight humans on their level. And even so.. he's sending his entire "legion" of angels AND demons against these five people.. one of them being pregnant.. we're supposed to believe that they're gonna overcome these odds anyway?
If you could only see some of the ridiculous comments left by people. I mean some Catholic dude argued in favor of the movie citing it as fiction (of course) and some military tech dude (who likes to make it known that he's black) just flamed me out of the blue for making a humorous post on the imdb about it. I mean.. I can understand people's hate towards religion. I consider myself Christian but am appalled at the people who do terrible unChristian like things and blast people in the media and call themselves "Christian". Jesus says not to judge and if he died for ALL sins.. doesn't that count homosexuality even if it's considered a sin? Because pretty much everything we do is a sin.
I've seen so many comments about people who clearly hate Christians who have no concept of the actual beliefs and a lot of the hatred and it's just a lot of: "Yeah!! God's the villain like he truly is!! Fuck God!!" and a lot of people are hoping Satan saves humanity. I don't even think Satan's in it, which would also seem kinda dumb that he would miss out on the opportunity.
Oh yeah, that black military tech guy also told me, "it's called suspension of disbelief, jackass." Which was completely mean and uncalled for.. not that I really give a fuck.. but I can suspend disbelief.. what I can't suspensd is logic. Some other moron assumes I was "religious" just because I pointed out the movie's flawed logic.. and of course if you follow any religion you are obviously a moron. I don't even wanna go there. A guy who can't spell to save his life. Typical on the imdb and the internet in gereneral these days for people who are spewing hatred at people and calling them judgemental, often proclaiming how intelligent they are no matter how bad their spelling is. I'm not even going off on grammar because it's the internet and people speak like they talk but this one dude on a completely different board (who also goes by the same screenname on here) actually boasted that he was literate and clearly he wasn't.
It's not the amount of atheists and Christians that support this movie that bothers me.. it's how fucking collectively stupid they all are.. which does give the fact that God hates humans in the movie some credence.. ironically.
Sorry for the rant man but I think I liked this movie better when it was called "Tremors". It made a lot more sense.

| So.. I'm no blogging whore and maybe one day I'll regret saying anything of a personal nature.. but at least it's out of my head. I don't write to or for the masses.. I write because of the TV narrator voice in my head. The voice that has been narrating my life since I first learned of such thing watching Battle of the Planets and promos for Different Strokes. Yes, especially when the main characters (ie: Keith) would talk inside of their heads on said cartoon. This is how I view life. I wonder sometimes if other people do so as well. But here's the fucked up part.. before we could recycle any cartoon or John Williams theme in our head, as we dramatized our routine lives.. what did they do back in the day.. the WAAAAAAAAYYYYYY back in the day. The day the History Channel guy talks about. People didn't rock out to their iPods or Walkmen or 8 track tapes. They had.. minstrels.. maybe.. if they were lucky.
Then again.. I always struggle with the concept that we've somehow trapped ourselves into some kind of corporate lifestyle and instead of living life.. we create things like movies and envy the kinds of lives other people must've lived. We're a completely artificial, commercial generation. Seriously though.. can you imagine living in a world BEFORE Star Wars or finger nail clippers?

Not to be all creepy.. and just look at the mutherfuckers subcribing and reading this chick's blog. This person's view on attractive people was the subject of a previous blog. As you can see howmever.. she's fucking gorgeous.. or whatever chick's pictures she steals or friend poses for her.. j/k, Xcept about the gorgeous part.
She's actually pretty cool. We've had limited cyber contact. That's one of things I really fucking hate about the internet. You.. by sheer fucking happenstance.. come across people that in ways you may not even realize it at the time, impact your life in some seemingly miniscule way at the moment. Then you get to know them a little bit.. find out they're kinda cute.. and then you're just frustrated as hell.
It's not that I have a problem attracting cute girls or doing seX-type stuff with them.. but I'd really love to meet someone that I can have a sexual relationship AND an actual relationship. Someone that I actually enjoy spending time with outside of the seX-type stuff.
The interweb only adds to my frustration.

| Well kids.. a while back I posted a blog on the "No Win" Scenario. How did I fare? Well, I suppose that's all objective now isn't it? To say that the relationship worked out may be considered a win. To say that you successfully removed a cancerous tumor from your life could also be considered a win as well. Sadly, we'll have to go with the latter statement if we are to consider it a win.
My life in general seems to be only full of chaos and heartbreak.
There's nothing I can write that will not be cliche or something that you haven't heard before or that someone will not try to psycho-analyze and tell me where I might have gone wrong. Life is full of misfires and disappointments. It never gets easier.. it never stops hurting any less.. you just get used to the pain.
