THE IT IS JUST A THEORY SILLINESS

When I sit with religious people and discuss evolution, some of them say this line that makes me wonder where did this stupid line start and when will it end.

“IT IS JUST A THEORY.”

When someone says that I ask, “what else do you want it to be? A hypothesis or some plain ol’ fiction?”

The problem is not that they believe or choose not to believe in evolution, it is they do not know how to use the word.

What is a theory?

Dictionary.com says it is, "a coherent group of tested general propositions, commonly regarded as correct, that can be used as principles of explanation and prediction for a class of phenomena."

Google Dictionary says it is, "a supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained."

Both definitions complement each other.

When I find myself faced with such a silly statement I ask the person, “did you do science in high school?”

“If you did, what did you teacher say a theory is and what did he say a hypothesis is?”

The aim is not to tell them what a theory is – to guide against ridiculous arguments. The aim is to let them use their understanding of science to better recall what it means.

A theory is an idea, used to explain certain tested and trusted facts.

Does this mean, there can be more than one theory to a set of fact based principles?

Yes.

And like most things fade when we discover new and better understanding of the world, so do what was once accepted as a general principle. Which will then result in a more refined better theory.

What does this mean?

Science is humble to accept new findings about things and repent of their previous knowledge, while religion refuses to face reform and instead divide into sects. One sect accepting the knowledge and another saying the devil is at play.

When I get faced with a stubborn, ignorant and silly religious person who says, “I do not believe in this theory of yours.” (ignorant because he doesn’t understand and has refused to learn.)

I reply, “Whether you choose not to believe in the theory behind gravity, doesn’t mean gravity will stop acting on you and you will float away.”

“So, your believing or not believing in evolution does not mean, evolution never happened.”

“While your book says have faith, believe with no evidence. I choose to believe with evidence, which is available to you if you go online, search and study.”

Lastly, you should not believe everything you read. You need to seek knowledge from trusted sources.

No one man can know it all and no one book can have all the knowledge there is to know.

Crossover

I'm standing and looking, it is December thirty and one
Almost the time to crossover to a new year of merry and rum
But still I see many marching down in pennies
All dressed up for the go, one last time for them to know

That God cares

He sits alone in heaven and missing their praises
He can't wait to welcome all and forgive their faces
They all seem so glee, believing today is the day
Of Wonder and miracle to wipe all their pain

It is almost eleven-thirty and I see many praying
casting and binding, jumping while praising
I sit and wonder why they are all so glee
Giddy and happy about this miserable three

If he didn't ease your pain the last 364
What makes today so different from his daily rapport?
Close your eyes and pray, but waiting over the hour
Are all your debts, saddened missed chances and old Mrs. Prowler

Why bother, if he is there today should not matter
Why not stay home and enjoy a cold shower?
I for one will be wanking into the year
Listening to Tim Minchin blazing ear to ear

A reboot of Christopher Hitchens and Dawkins will be read
While y'all be gucking and singing with cheers
The only sad thing about my New Year crossover with chores
Is that you are with friends and I wish I was with whores

Before you ask why am not with the whores
Look to your left, they are holding your hand in chorus




Note:
Whore here means PROSTITUTE.

LUCIFER the ILLEST

His path he laid towards the grave
Dodging and scheme, wisdom to his age
Impatient I waited, 70 years to date
Now death has called and his soul is mine

Get thee behind me he is known by us
Before he cast his last thought, his spirit was with us
Who are you to deny access to blissful springs of hallelujahs
Remember who you are and the He that is with me

My father may be bliss, but I'm here to teach
That no soul can break and select and still wind up with Him
I'm here as judge, prosecutor and jury
And he cast his lost lot and is sentenced to misery

I represent the Father and you better recognize
He sent me here to bring him home, sir be wise
Thrice he has called asking, "where is my son?"
So, Mr. Morningstar back off before I strike you down

No, no way he cannot get away with this
All the lying and hate, this dude raped many kids
You can't justify his place because he said he was sorry
Father better know his place, because here He gave me glory

Father gave you glory, so what!!! This man served in his vineyard
He brought many to Him, more than he turned out of the gate
You have no right over mercy, that belongs to Him
He is the Alpha and Omega who holds all the keys.

It is my place to accuse, and the accusee is guilty
Your pride goes before you, you must not have heard of me
I’m the first to slam the door on our Father and walk
I’m the best of the chorus, my voice remains to be beat

You dare challenge me don't you know by whom I stand
By his power and grace, I will smite you to your feet
I have never failed a mission from our Father three
Stand aside pretty boy, your reign is becoming over

Words, words, words… I don't have time for this
Can you feel the heat, kneel! Did you think you can step to this?
Look up at me from there, how dare you stand against me
I have crippled many angels before the thought of you came to be

Father, Elohim I look up to you
You sent me and only me, my confidence is hurt
I kneel to his heat, make me stand tall again
To banish the father of demons and bring this soul to rest on your bosom
 
He can hear, but won't help because of reasons I will not say
Don't have time, I have plans for this human soul today
When I walk away soon your strength will return
Don't forget this day son when you faced up with the one.
The one from beneath and the Prince of this here domain
It is you who better recognize, I don’t show up unless I win
I’m too lit to waste my time with little angels thee,
This is Morningstar signing off with the three number 6

What I Believe

Nothing is set or cast in stone, we are the authors of our tomorrow.

We have the right to choose and to change our minds, we don't have to explain ourselves to you. Either you accept us for who we are or piss off.

I believe life evolved, scientific theories & facts too evolve.

You cannot be a hundred percent certain of anything. Also, if you are a one or a seven on the "Dawkins Belief Scale" then you are a liar.

We are all gifted in different ways, it will be nice if we are told which way we seem to stand taller than most because sometimes we do not know.

I most times do not care what you think on some matters, the same way I believe you care not what I think too.

Picking and choosing what I like is what religion is about.

 

Sex is for both parties to enjoy so discussing what you both like is paramount, but not as paramount to you trying them to please one another.

Whoever I choose to have sex with is my business not yours.

I believe before anyone gets married they should live together, very important.

When a relationship ends you are just at fault as the other party. Pride hides this from you.

Friends always see what you did wrong in your last relationship, but they do not want to be burdened to tell you.

You will always miss the one that got away, but that is because you are focused on the good times. Your brain is not programmed to recall the pain and sadness you felt when you were facing the trials.

I do not see anything wrong with any gender making the first move. If the receiver is not matured enough to handle that, then they are not for you.

When you meet someone you like or want to be with, do not let outside rules like age, gender, tribe, race, religion or social status be a factor. That miserable “OK PERSON” could be your happily today, biggest regret tomorrow, murderous intent the day after and the arms you call home that you never want to be without.
 
If outside rules do matter to you, then make sure your partner also accepts those rules.
 
Core values are more important to me like, parenting, spending & saving culture, ideological views, cleanliness, time-consciousness, sexual view, understanding viewpoints, communication skills, great arguer and ability to be absent when present.

There is no right person for anyone, everyone can be the right person and that is the truth.



What makes a great arguer:

• Someone who sticks to fact not feelings and is ready to accept fault when they lose on the subject matter.
• One who does not get angry and insult while talking.
• One who knows that disagreement on anything does not affect or should affect how we converse on other things.

 

If you constantly complain about your colleague’s inability to be useful to you, then you are a useless leader.

If you complain that you must do everything yourself for it to be perfect because of the above, then you are a useless teacher.

If you think you work harder than your colleagues or subordinates then you do not, you seem to have enough time on your hands to be measuring how others work.

 

Saving for the future you may never have is the best thing ever, save - you will need it for the future you never wanted.

Always live below your means, if this makes you feel bad because you don’t – then I feel worse for you.

In everything give your best, except when your best gets criticized then you don't stress.

You will always meet those people who always think they are ahead because they are smarter, do not let that get you down.

Luck is what rules the world, some have it and some don't, it is life, get over it. 

Money will change you, it is because we do not have it that we are all so humble.

Ever met those guys that talk too much and know nothing?

When someone must shout to make his point even though the point is out of this world foolish – allow him because the more you do not interrupt, the faster you will be saved from his foolish words.

 

You cannot always be yourself, don’t fool yourself that you can.

You can, when needed, stand for what you believe, don’t let anyone or yourself fool you that you can’t.

Being quiet about what you believe in the face of danger or in front of a loud mouth is not cowardice, but wisdom.



Assisted death and abortion should be an accepted thing.

When I die my body will be placed in the ground to rot. The soil will benefit from this and so will the world.

I'm not worried about what people will think of me when I'm dead, the reason is plain and simple, I'm dead... dead men don't worry.

My head houses the brain which houses me. When I die and the brain dies, the me is gone. There is no soul or spirit that is going anywhere to be judged for anything, death is the end.

For the above two reasons, there is much to live for and I will live the best way I can.

Things I Don't Get

Why do you have to conquer the world for your God?

• Why does he not make us Muslims or Christians from the start?

Sex is great and all that, but seventy-two virgins?

• Why does your view of heaven have women like livestock?

Suicide bombers, Catholic indulgent payments and Pastors getting rich on offerings

• One of these three has been stopped, guess which?

God in three persons, like water (liquid, Ice and steam)

•  If so, isn’t it odd that Jesus keeps talking to himself (God)? There is a medical term for those with split personality.

We must kill the corrupt of the world.

• Christians guiltier than Muslims here.

Why do religious books say impossible things?

• Moses and his five books: Why does he keep moving from first person to third person in his writings. How did he write on his death and burial, the dead don’t write?
• If everyone was asleep in the Garden of gethsemane, who wrote Jesus’s conversation with himself (God)?
• Abraham test on killing his son: God should have reprimanded him for even going ahead with it, not celebrate the murderous intent.
• Why will God allow man to create many languages then insist we learn Arabic to understand him?
• Thinking of something is the same thing as doing it, in which world is that true?
• Why is God so overly interested in who I sleep with?

Help me understand this:

• I love the world and its people, but I’m upset at what they are doing. So, I will send myself to die for them as a sacrifice to myself.

Why will I marry a six-year-old?

Why is death the justice for not believing?

Why does God need me to send you money?

• He owns every cattle on a thousand hills. If he thinks you need one let him make one appear in your living room. Imagine if he did, scientists and doubters will shut-up because how can they explain a private jet mysteriously appearing in your backyard.

Praying for the dead?

• I do not get that – the person is dead.

The Vatican has accepted evolution, yet many other churches and even Catholics do not, why?

Marriage?

Homosexuality?

• Hey, I’m the one going to hell not you so mind your business.

Someone disses your prophet and you go on a killing rage, I don’t get?

• The disser is going to hell for it why do innocent people have to die along with him?

You know, if he has a telepathic connection to everyone and can control things, here is an idea:

• He drops a message in our minds as a vision and shows the same message on every media devices in the world. That will solve the Jesus or Mohammad problem. For those with direct line to him, please tell him. (The he/him here is God)

The religious books are said to be written by God or inspired by him.

If so, why are they outdated. At least God who knows the future will know of the coming of the women revolution, the anti-slavery revolution, modern science and with-it evolution and fashion revolution. The books believed the world will end a millennium ago.

OR

Maybe it has ended and we are the ones left behind.

Things I Don't Mind

I don't mind if you gather every Sunday and allow demons to be beaten out of you until you pass out, next time please record it on your phone I will love a laugh.

I don't mind if you starve yourself of food for hours or days, you should lose weight anyways a third of the world population is obese.

I don't mind if you bow with your heads to the ground five times a day. You are damned if you do and damned if you don't, so bow away.

I don't mind if you get married or not, but marrying a nine-year-old or a child not above eighteen is pedophilia.

I don't mind if you starve yourself of sex, just don’t expect me to.

I don't mind if you find the other sex attractive, I'm attracted to people of my gender… it shouldn’t bother you I’m leaving more for you to have your pick.

I don't mind if you are proud of your sex at birth, I'm proud to be me too and I prouder to be trans.

I don't mind if you give all your money to another because you think he is holy, I rather spend my money on myself thank you.

I don't mind if you deny yourself sleep to talk to yourself all night. I used to do that too, way back when my imaginary friend visits, now I will rather sleep.

I don't mind if you sing to your Lord all day, just as long as you do not mind me joining you.

I don't mind if you sing all night, just do it quietly there is no point keeping me up with you.

I don't mind if you become picky of food. I too can be picky, but not because of sin I just think seafood are yucky.

I don't mind if you become picky of whom you will call priest. I do not blame you based on the amount of molestation going on, I too will be picky.

I don't mind if you condemn another sect of yourself because you feel holier. Hey! your religion your rules.

I don't mind if you believe you are holier than me as a matter of fact I applaud you.

I don't mind that you think I'm going to your hell. Note, for me God and the Devil are the same. They are two friends chilling in the 100 acre woods with Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Kanga and Roo.

I don't mind that you deny the wisdom of science from many books to believe in one book, just don't say things like "it is just a theory" it is clear you do not know what theory means.

Unison in Church

Blazing is the sight from afar
Trembling as their voices rose to the air
It's pretty, it's peaceful and consoles each aching breath

The pictures aligned to the wall
The altar set up to be seen in awe
We are in his presence, the God in the church for all

I listen to the words, none is different from what I heard before
But in unison we stand and praise the Lord
What wonder, what pleasure to be here

I see the old nod with each word
I see young all focused on their phones
He speaks from the pulpit, spreading his word like seeds

How I wish the world will be as such
Unison of mind like that of the church
Caring less what you think or where you from

How sad it is to be forced to conform
When all I want is to be part of the one
We can't all believe in the old man in the sky


We can’t all act and have sex like everyone else
We can't all behave and believe alike
This doesn't mean we can't stand in unison against crime

The crime to the world is the death of much
Crime is denying the right for some to be
We all have a right to be heard and to live

Why should we allow anyone tell us otherwise?

Legion

What's your name?
They call me, Legion
because we are many, now leave us be.

Hail thee, Lucifer Morningstar
For your praise, we sacrifice our souls
I heard one say is how we live

I stare in wonder, "shall we lie that we are with you?"
"Yes," they say
It is better being in a multitude of many than in a Legion of few

We remind them, their Father prefers truth
It is better we standalone
For he has promised to spew us from his mouth

They ignore and come in a rage of words
Before us they birth their arguments
One is named dumb and the other boring

Dumb cries of things he knows less
Confused, he speaks without meaning
Thinking faith = proof and theory = not proven

Boring is as his name
He tells of an end with infinite existence
We will spend that existence, singing and praising

They ask for repentance and return
Like faith is a switch you turn on and off
Do they think it is easy being us? Why don't they try.

They believe moral decadence begins with us
Such folly flows from the path of least resistance
As their faith closed the doors to reality

You tag us children of the Morningstar
Doesn't change the truth of your Father
He is to us, Santa Claus for adults

The Truth of Easter

It is that time again, the time they claim he is risen
Such fictitious tales have their minds imprisoned
They make their leaders livid on days they choose to live
Blaming me, saying “it’s the devil” each time their true self come to be

My life is wrapped round what they desire
I plague the facts that sets their hearts on fire
I twist it and turn it until they cannot live without it
Yet the fools will sell their jewels to please a lie they claim is true

No messiah came to die for you
You crave so much of the dark side you know it’s true
I’m the voice that tells the truth about who you really are
He is the fantasy, I’m the real deal because it is I who lives in you

Come come save your strength
Save your money too before it is all spent
Forget trying to be a child of the, “Three in one”
This is me baby, you know I’m the one you want.




if you like the above you will love Call Me, Morningstar

Call Me, Morningstar

My voice rings bright like the morning star
My name is useful to hide your scars
We play this game where you call me the father of lies
but I'm Legion, I tell no lies
In me are many wailing
Waiting for, "thy kingdom come"
I plague on your desires
I draw you to me and away from him

Do not misunderstand, that is what he created me to do
And I do my job well
You can tell by the amount of times you seek forgiveness
You can yell, but you know it is true
There is more me in you than he will ever be

Are you drawn to the dark side?
It is not me calling you over
Your heart aches for it
The fire from my eyes bring warmth
And an illusion of pleasure is what he offers
Who wants to sing holy holy holy for eternity?


In your book I'm called a roaring lion
you can call me, Lucifer

God's prayer to God

Life and death are in the power of the tongue they say
Tears and laughter, waging hard with anger, yet you never come
Treachery, pain, cursing and sin are before me and yet the day still beyond me
Where is he? Where is he and his chariot of flame to bring forth redemption?
The day of glory precedes the day of the damned
I hope my words will bring the damned today

I have been waiting for thousands of years and my brothers have been waiting longer
Over the earth we war, sowing the seed of confusion and plunder
In many we dim the light. They see, but are blind – they hear, but are deaf
There is more to existence than this, yet these puny souls believe they know it all
Where are you?

They talk of me like they talk of you
I grow weary of them claiming knowledge of you, coming up with stories of inbreed
And a cross of three so gloom
When are you coming?

I with my brothers believe we are above the wretch of souls beneath my feet
We watch as greed turns to religion and hope to delusion
Or are we like them, the lost?
Are there some above us, looking down at us?
Wondering how foolish we are as we toy with these souls thinking we are above them.

Are we the true demons they fear?
For they look to us as one, the genesis of hope
I look into the cosmos and wonder, are we?
Are you still coming or am I just another fool?
Like the ones before me, who will sacrifice happiness for morals
Leave behind adventure for aura
Even the ones who claim they know better seeking happiness and adventure are bound by principles
Where are you? I grow weary of waiting.

Those with Ph.D. in Normal

Where did the idea that it is wrong to change your view/perception of life come from?

I find myself in conversations with people who seem to have a Ph.D. in what is normal and natural.

When you hit the door of reasoning of what is normal to you may not be to another, they try to break the tie by using nature.

You explain that nature is not govern by human laws and precepts, thereby not making nature the best tie breaker for human reason. They pull out morality/religion.

A punishment factor comes in when you change your view in some religion and some religion criticizes what others accept as their way of life.

At this point you are explaining to them it is prejudice to discard someone’s way of life as abnormal and wrong because they do not agree with your concept of religion or morality.

The moment you cannot make anyone see the stupidity and prejudice in judging another person’s sexuality, religion, race or choice because they do not agree with yours, you are stuck.

They then call you a prejudice also for kicking against them for not being open.

And you wonder, does that make me a prejudice of the stupid or does calling them stupid make me prejudice?

There is no person, religion or view who owns the sole right to what is normal and what is not because you cannot relate with something or someone does not make it/they abnormal and wrong.

Imagine We Are In Hell

Imagine,

The real true religion which understood life has been raptured and life on earth is hell.

Think about it,

We struggle for everything, even then we never get what we wish for and must settle.

We are always at war, always in need plus we have an insatiable thirst for pleasure, happiness and fulfillment.

Tortured daily by the emptiness of tomorrow because we cannot see the future.

Today may be a great day, but the greatness seems like torture because right next to the minutes or hours of excitement is reality. We wish our lives are better than what it is now.

Also, if you choose one set of ideas to live by you will face criticism, if you choose another same thing.

People say don't live to please others, but if I cannot find peace in acceptance what else is there?

I tried loneliness where the point of view of others do not matter, but that was a bore.

I tried being carefree, but that also drives you towards loneliness.

Being carefree is a long way around to boredom.

Why do some people agree, there is a hell worse than this?

A place of torture for my soul when I know souls feel no pain.

The real torture is for the living, the real pain exists when you are alive.

The real hell is here.

Find those people you connect with.

In their eyes who you are does not matter, it is what you bring to their lives that does.

With them, you find that fleeting joy even though it is for a moment.

The sad thing is, these people are few and never stay around long enough for a lifetime which in its own is another torture.

Missing The Idea of God

I no longer believe in God, but sometimes I miss it.

I do not know for other atheist, but for me walking away from God and religious believes after years of dedication did not result in a sigh of relief or a freedom party. Walking away from God and anything religion was a sad, depressing and lonely day.

I never felt so alone and people take turns guessing why I walked away from God and ninety-nine percent of the time they are right. It was disappointment and realization that believing in God is like believing in Santa Claus.

This happened when years of disappointment caught up with logic and reason forming a new perception of my reality.

I cannot undo knowing if I jump up I cannot fly, same way I cannot undo knowing there is no God. I came to understand that your religious believe is almost one hundred percent based on your geographical location.

Someone once asked me, “if anyone proves God exist, will you believe?”

I replied, “Yes.”

The person was shocked and said, “that means deep inside you have not stopped believing in him.”

To that I replied, “I have stopped, but if there is proof I will not fight against it because I’m not stupid!”

At present, I do not think on God because I have accepted my present perception or awareness of him not existing and the anger of being a fool for so long makes me want to pass the knowledge across.

Then there are the days when I’m talking to someone and the bible comes up and we get talking back and forth if God exist or not. I look at the person and I see this cuteness in what I believe is their ignorance, what I see is a child telling me how Santa will bring presents this Christmas and how the lovely fairies will come party in their room.

The same way when a child talks and I’m amazed by their innocence making me wish I was a child again is how I feel when someone goes on talking about the utopia in God. I look at them with a kind eye with a smile remembering the days I too used to believe in Santa and fairies.
