Ako, buong araw nakatunganga sa computer. Nung 13 years old ako puro pokemon lang ang alam ko. Totoo. Nakakamangha lang. haha.
1 year old na naninigarilyo.
5 years old na nanay.
13 years old na adik.
Ang wirdo na ng mundo. Dadating yung araw na yung mga normal na tao na ang mukhang naiiba at pagtatawanan. Ayun.
And I really don’t understand why people do that asterisk thing on bad words. I mean, we still know what it means! I really don’t get its point. It boggles my mind. I mean, it’s already boggled ever since I was born but these things boggles it even more as if it isn’t boggled enough yet!
Anyways. Happy birth day to iinomakongtubig.tumblr.com. Where’s the video? I’ve been waiting for it the whole lunch. And do you know how long lunch is for me? Forever. :D
Anyway, have a nice day everyone.
Samantalang ako nandito, nagmumokmok sa harap ng kompyuter. Sila may mga pekshurs katabi mga sosyal prengs nila na may hawak na starvaks. Tapos ako ang pikshur ko eh may hawak na taho, magisa sa swing. Sila may libo libong album sa peysbuk. May isang album sa bawat upload nila. ako nagiisa ang pikchur ko dahil paulit ulit lang naman yung itsura ko.
Pero ayun. who needs starbucks? Masarap ang taho. Kontento na ako dun.
#pero di mo parin maiiwasang mainggit minsan
Ummm. And she’s two years younger than me. Maybe in time. I could wait. :D
I’m too old to get back on studying. Too old to be addicted to computer games. And a lot of other stuff that I haven’t thought of yet.
I don’t want to go back to school. I want to study on my own, my own pace, my own lessons. No annoying minors to mind. Just me and my life.
But sometimes I do get insecure with people with proper training and all. I mean, I can do things that others spend years studying but I feel very under-trained so I get less confident about what I can do.
I also secretly want to feel how it feels to have friends in school again and people I can laugh with inside a classroom. It’s been weeks since I’ve laughed with my friends. I miss the smell of new school stuff, the pressure of assignments and projects.
I really don’t know what I can learn in school that I can’t learn all by myself. But It’s lonely being alone.
Though this won’t do much against real hackers, it’s still worth doing. Phishers rely on data you accidentally send them but they won’t notice a space after your password unless they checked. And they’re the most common hackers I see here on tumblr.
I put random amount of spaces on my accounts. Some sites don’t support spaces on passwords though like Deviantart and Paypal because it’s not printable(visible when printed).
This isn’t a breakthrough in protecting your account and there are a lot more ways to protect your them but like what I’ve said, it’s still worth it.
And by the way, real hackers don’t need to hack tumblr accounts. That’s like eating on fast food chains for chefs. But they might just for fun just as chefs still do eat on fast food chains.
But really, sometimes, they’re just a bunch of script kids.
P.S. Knowing someone’s password because they told you what their password is, isn’t hacking.
This post is mainly for informing people.
Nah. Just joking. But that’s something every website can do, you know. And you’ll never know. That’s why, I read those long terms and conditions…sometimes. Lol.
You could always read them when you aren’t doing anything.
This post is just a friendly reminder from someone who’s promoting the “Terms and Conditions Awareness day”. Me
I’M JUST JOKIIING! I kinda freaked out when I realized anyone can do this. Just thought I’d share it to everyone in a dramatic way. Please don’t hate me. I’ve had enough hating to last me a life time.
True story.
Dang. google.tumblr.com. Anu ba yun. parang wala lang sa tamang pagiisip.
Umuwi na ako
Yep. after 1 month and 9 days, umuwi na ako. Nakinig ako sa isang matinding sermon mula sa aking ama. Pero so far, ok na. Inalok niya ako ng pagkain. Ayun. Gave him his first ever Sorry.
Ayun, after nga ng isang buwang mahigit na palaboy laboy sa mga kamaganak at kakilala, umuwi na ako. Nakumbinsi ako ng mga elementary teachers ko nung tinry kong magapply as tutor ng Math at Computer sa kanila. Ayun, tinanung nila kung anu nangyari sa buhay buhay ko. Di ko alam kung anu nakakaiyak dun pero ayun nga, umiyak sila. Kasi nakita raw nila kung panu ako lumaki and very close daw kami ng tatay ko nuon. Ayun, sinamahan nila ako pauwi. Kinausap ang aking ama. Ayun. Tapos ang problema. Panibagong set nanaman. Pero keri yan.
Wala paring tatalo sa init ng sarili mong bahay at pamilya. Wag niyong kakalimutan yan.
Nagpagupit na ako
Yep. Buhay pa yung gumupit. Pinilit din ako nung mga elementary teachers ko na magpagupit bago umuwi. Ayun, no choice. Asar ako dun sa barbero. Balak iwan yung bangs ko eh shaved yung gilid gilid ng buhok ko. Nagmumuka akong stereotyped na emo na mahaba lang yung bangs. Hindi mo naman kailangan maging parlorista para makitakung anung bagay sayo na gupit no. Ayaw ko ng bangs kapag hindi natatakpan ng buhok yung tenga ko. Parang ganun. Kaya pinaputol ko yung bangs ko. At nakatayo na lahat ng buhok ko sa ulo ngayon.
Haaay. Dapat kasama sa 30 pesos na bayad sa pagpapagupit yung pagpapabilis ng oras para tumubo agad yung buhok. Ayun.
Barbero: Ang haba naman ng buhok mo. bakit ngayon ka lang nagpagupit?
Ako: Ang mahal kasi ng 30 pesos kuya. Magpapagupit nalang din ako, susulitin ko na.
True story.
Eksena sa jeep
Galing akong palengke kaninang umaga. Tapos nung papunta akong sa elementary school ko dati, sumakay ako ng jeep, may dala akong backpack at isa pang bag kaya dun na ako sa medyo gitna umupo. Madalas kasi sa likod ng driver ako umuupo. Dun sa pinakadulo. Kaso puno ng mga college students yung mga upuan na yun. kaya no choice talaga, sa gitna ako napunta.
Nagiingay kasi yung mga college student sa tabi ko, tungkol kay P-noy and SONA and stuff yung pinaguusapan. Kesho wala daw kwenta ganun ganun. Kesho useless daw si P-noy. Sabi nung isa “Di uunlad ang pinas kay Noynoy no.” Ayun lang naman. Eh, Medyo di ako komprotable sa buhay kanina kasi di ko pa pinapublish yung post ko about kay P-noy. Kaya ayun, mejo tinopak ako.
Nung magbabayad na ako, walang umabot nung bayad ko. Wala kahit na isa sa mga students na yun. Eh di rin abot nung driver. I mean, di naman ako ganun kabaho nun. Naliligo ako paminsan minsan no at kanina yung isa sa mga espesyal na araw na yun. Di ko alam kung anung problema nila pero sila, problema ko. In-occupy nila yung harap tapos ayaw abutin yung bayad. Ayun, tinopak na talaga ako.
Ako: Bayad po, pakiabot.
(walang umaabot. Inulit ko yung pagsabi, wala padin.)
Kaya tumayo na ako, sinadyang matamatamaan sila ng bag ko sa likod, tapos inabot yung bayad sa driver. Tapos nung nakaupo na ako sabi ko:
Ako: Tapos nagrereklamo kayo na di umuunlad yung Pilipinas.
Ayun. Nagulat din ako eh. Sigro Adrengnaline(sinadya yan) narin. Ewan, mejo awkward din. Buti na lang malapit lapit na ako kaya pumara na ako. Pagbaba ko, mejo poise poise tapos tumawid. Ayun.
Iba pa.
Wala naman. Antagal ko lang nawala. Isang buwan. Mejo di ganun kaactive, paisa isa lang ang post. Kaya ayun, balik na ako. Mas may time na ako magsulat sa bahay. May kape na ulit. Salamat sa mga nagsupport sa kin jan, morally and umm, spiritually. Maraming salamat sa inyong lahat.
That’s my mind right now. A huge puddle of thoughts(and problems). Puddles are muddy. My mind’s not. It’s messy though. Ideas here and there but I can’t find a place to write them down or draw them. Well I’ve a lot of place to put them down. It’s time I’m trying to find. I’ve got two watches in my mind right now but I don’t have enough time. Well maybe I’m just not good at managing it. I suck in life.
I’ve tons of things to write. Everything’s in my mind and I can’t organize them in my journal. And my journal’s starting to run out. Every time I try to write them, it all flies away. And then a new one comes in. And the process repeats all over again. I seriously need to organize my life now. so I’ll be going out.
Now. Night.
And it’s not because of that “It hide my tears” crap or anything. That’s emo stuff. I’m not emo. I like the rain because it cleans the road and stuff… Nah. just joking.
I like the rain because it’s wet. I don’t know. I just like the rain. I like walking in it.
OH WAIT I REMEMBER WHY I LIKE THE RAIN!
It makes this waterfall stuff on our roof and it’s fun to watch. That’s all.
I’ve a lot of short stories both in my mind and in my journals but I was never confident about them. I always try to revise them as often as I could that sometimes, I end up removing my original intention on why I wrote it. In Ella and the talking tree stump, I was never sure on how to end it, if I got my message through and if it was well, nice enough to read so I really don’t know why I decided to publish that. These things usually lowers my self-esteem(if I do have such thing as this, lol) in writing. But I recently thought that I would never know if I am indeed doing well in it if nobody’s going to read it. So there it is, open for reading and all the critique you can give. Constructive or not.
Ella and the talking tree stump is actually based from someone-I-know’s fear of butterflies and her ability to hold on to grudges as if they were glued to her. I thought that the way she hates people or things because of something they’ve done in the past fits how she hates butterflies because they were once worms. It doesn’t matter to her whether people change or if they actually did something good for everybody after everything. As long as she know something about these people, she uses this to hate them or sometimes, even destroy them. The story was originally about a girl who hates butterflies and not a rabbit but I wanted to lessen the similarities to her so I changed the characters. And I also wanted a little fairy-taley feel on it, that’s why.
This story shows how people usually judge other people based on their past(the caterpillar thing) and hate them even if they’ve already changed(the butterfly thing). It also shows how we hate something we fear(the being-a-worm thing) and what we can never have(the change thing). Other morals are pretty self explanatory and I guess it wouldn’t be necessary to explain each one of them. Actually all morals were pretty obvious and I don’t know why I’m even explaining them!
Well, all in all, i think I just wanted to publish a story so I can do something with my time. I’m not even sure If anyone would like it. Anyway, I do hope you enjoy reading it. Have a nice day!

Once there was a rabbit named Ella who claimed to love everything except butterflies. She does everything that a normal rabbit does except chasing butterflies. Whenever a butterfly appears, she always turns around and hops endlessly away from it. She always tells her friends that she only does that because she thought butterflies are annoying, tiresome, ugly and she hates them. But the truth is, she secretly fears and envies them but she never tells these to anyone in fear of being laughed at.
One day, she was hopping cheerfully under the sun when she unexpectedly landed on a group of pretty purple flowers. She didn’t now that this patch of land was a favorite for the butterflies so when her feet landed on it, the butterflies fluttered by her. She let out a small rabbity squeak and hopped furiously away from the place and never looked back. When she finally thought there was nothing chasing her, she sat beside a rotted tree stump and tried to catch her breath.
“Such wild creatures! Disgusting and vile… ruining every perfect moment of my day! I hate them, butterflies!”, exclaimed Ella.
The stump heard this complaints and politely replied to Ella in a raspy old voice, “And why is that, my dear?” Ella was startled by the voice but instead of hopping away, she hopped around the stump and checked it.
“Well, are you going to hop around me forever or are you going to answer me?” asked the stump.
“Oh, I’m sorry Mr. Tree stump, Sir,” replied Ella. “You see, I was hopping around cheerfully a while ago when a band of nasty butterflies suddenly appeared and started chasing me. I just got away luckily but they sure ruined my day now. I’ve always hated them because they’re ugly and annoying.”
“Is that so?”, asked the stump. “Do you really find them ugly and annoying or are you afraid of them? You see, you don’t hop away from something annoying but you do from something you fear.”
“I most certainly am not afraid of them, Sir. They’re ugly, that’s why I hopped away! They’re simply annoying and ugly and disgusting. I’m not afraid of them!”
“Simply annoying and ugly, eh? But simply something is never enough to hold such negative feelings towards something, my dear.” said the stump.
“But this isn’t a matter of intensity of the reason, Sir. I hate them and that’s always enough.”
“No, they’re not. You are afraid of them that’s why you hopped away. And you’re just telling me—and I must assume that’s what you tell everyone else too—that you’re not just to cover up your fear. But don’t worry. That’s normal. We usually hate what we fear.”
“I am not afraid o—”, But Ella knew there was no point in lying anymore.
“Tell me about it.” said the tree stump in a very excited voice.
“Yes, Sir, you are right. I am afraid of them and I also envy them. I have always feared worms, you see. I think they’re crawly and creepy and when I see a worm, I can always feel them under my fur!”, Ella said.
The stump chuckled at this and said,“But my dear! Butterflies aren’t worms!”
“Yes, I know they’re not. But they once were! And every time I see a butterfly, all I see is a worm with two pairs of big wings!”
“But why do you envy them?”
“Because they can change. I hate how such low creatures can change their appearance and be something so beautiful. I don’t think they deserve it.”
“Hmmm. I must say that’s a little unreasonable. You must understand that some things change and it’s not like they can do anything about it. And when change comes by, It’s always either for the good of for bad. But in a worms case, it’s for the good. I agree that they’re ugly and disgusting once and they destroyed a lot of precious leaves here and there but you must understand, it’s what they are. They have to live with it. But these oddities you see in them is what hardens them, makes them stronger, turns them into cocoons and after they’ve finally got out of these cocoons, emerge as beautiful butterflies. They try to pay whatever they took by making flowers and things. Some things do change in a way that others usually do not like but it’s what they should be, my dear. It’s always good to look back at some one’s past but to judge them based on it is a big mistake.”
“But they’ll always be wor—”, Ella started but the stump interrupted, “Butterflies are butterflies. And that’s all there is to it. You can’t judge someone based on their past forever. You envy them because they can change and you think that you can’t. But physical appearance only matters to the eyes! You can also change through your heart and be a rabbit with two pairs of big butterfly wings inside you.”
Ella started laughing at this. She thought a rabbit with butterfly wings would really look ridiculous. “You certainly are a very clever stump, Sir.” said her, “I think you’re right. But I still think they’re creepy. It still might take me a lot of time before I start liking butterflies.”
“Oh you don’t have to hurry, dear. Time is running fast enough for everyone to catch up with it. One second at a time. If it can change seasons, then changing you would be as simple as standing still. Given enough will and determination, you’ll eventually learn how to love something that’s bound to be loved anyway. After all, butterflies are such sweet creatures with all those nectar all over them.” Said the stump.
Ella and the tree stump talked and talked until she finally realized it was time to go home. She never knew if the stump could indeed wave a goodbye but it did shouted “I’m waving goodbye!”. She waved her knobby paws back to the stump and started hopping towards the orange horizon with her fear of butterflies a little lesser than it was this morning. What she never knew though was that, inside this rotten tree stump was a small bundle of sticky stuff on it’s side. Inside this bundle was a small caterpillar who after talking to Ella all day, planned all night how it would play with her once it’s finally out of it’s cocoon.
How many more stars would have to fall before at least one of my wishes come true?
Ok, it’s been a while since I’ve last posted a drawing so here’s something to compensate for everything I’ve done wrong(anu daw?). This is another one of those thoughts I’ve had in my head for a long time but never had the chance to draw down. Well as a childish, irrational, and useless being, I still believe in wishing on falling stars. I think that’s all about it. :D
And it’s not a matter of being a pessimist or an optimist. A lie is a lie and you can’t change that. While truths are very fragile things that even the slightest amount of lie causes it’s very foundation to crumble and become lies instead.
Sometimes, I find it hard to cope up with the world’s changes. Everything’s changing so fast and I can barely find a space to breathe in between those changes. Why do things change so fast? Why can’t it be slow and adaptable? I really can’t express how difficult this is for me…
…there were only 150 pokemons when I started! And after 4 generations there were suddenly 500 plus of them! God, help me! How on earth can I finish that in one week like I used to in Red version!?
Lol
Well, I got somewhat inspired(lol at this term) by my last post last night. The one about not having a best friend. That was due to loneliness. A bit of thinking last night made me realize that I do have bestfriends. They may not be like other people’s definition of bestfriends but they’re the best friends I’ve ever had so far. And even though I know nobody would care, I’d like to post this up. Lol.
So ok, let’s start here:
Ok, that’s Mathew. Sorry for that really big picture. He’s been a friend since I was in my first year college and he’s very fun to be with. I met him in my Math17 class. During the first weeks of my college life, I usually sit at the back most corner of the room. It lets me listen to my mp3 player back then without getting noticed. Mathew on the other hand ended up on the back, beside me, not because he wanted to, but because he was late(always) and the only seats left are at the back.
Now one day(no this isn’t a fairy tale), I was in that class, eternally listening to my teacher’s almost jigglypuff-like voice, thus making me sleepy. I had my MP3 on full volume as well as the head phones’. My hair was long back then and you wouldn’t notice a headphone underneath it. People swear I could hide cabinets in it and no one would notice. Of course that’s exaggeration. But here’s what happened. As I was staring deeply into the green void in front of our class which was then called a blackboard, listening to canon rock, my teacher suddenly fell quiet. And so did the whole class. Then one by one, people where turning their heads back at me. I realized that Canon Rock must have leaked into the whole class and they knew I was the source. I immediately removed the jack and continued not caring about the world(though I swear that would be one of my most embarrassing moments in life).
After a few seconds of giggling and weak laughs, peace has been restored and Mathew, being my seatmate, told me that was cool. He then continued asking me what other songs I listen to because he certainly liked Canon Rock. And then we became friends because it turned out he was my classmate in most of my classes. We ate lunch together, went home together, more like a mild bromance thing without the romance, lol. But yeah, He was cool.
He invited(more like kidnapped By the way) me to join a Christian organization he attends to. We had a lot in common like the video games we play, the attraction to instrumental compositions and love for eating(lol) so we got along pretty easily.
He still contacts me though I don’t return his mails that much(Is that rude? I still do reply but I’m busy you know. lol). A real friend indeed. The closest thing I’ve had for a best friend.
NEXT!
That’s Melinda, the best-girl-friend I’ve ever had. She’s small, but I prefer it cute, and funny, thus making her a really good friend. Easy to befriend and gets along with almost all kinds of people. She’s a really good adviser as well as a listener so she pretty much ended up like someone I always tell my problems to. She was one of those people you’ll regret losing because she’s really kind and fun to be with.
I met her after joining the org that Mathew told me to join. She was a member and after some few jokes, we got along pretty well. I once gave her a jumbo card from blue magic and drew stuff and messages all over it. She also once helped me in revising one very important letter that I’d rather not tell anyone. She was the first one to call when she found out that I’ve been out-of-school. She talked to me when my girlfriend first broke up with me. She’s really sweet and very strong(emotionally) for a small girl. We shared a lot of common things and we’ve been in almost identical situations. So she pretty much understands me…always(I think so).
She still contacts me and I do, too. I recently greeted her a happy birthday and she’s still as sweet as ever even though I haven’t seen her for a year I think. She’s certainly one of the best friends I’ve had.
Next!
Ok, these guys, are the most awesome people I’ve ever had(though they’re not mine, mind you). I can literally compare these guys to HIMYM folks and they do, make anyone laugh. They can turn the worst situations in life into a pulp of pure awesomeness— something you can laugh about even after the next day. They actually, unknowingly helped me get over my first break up. They’re my high school classmates and ended up being my housemates for a year(except for Sheila). So let me introduce them from left to right:
Charles. The group’s official Joker. No one can resist this dude’s joking power and his impeccable knack for making people laugh is always flawless. He’s sweet(don’t get me wrong) and a real gentleman. I actually think he can be the group’s Barney Stinson in terms of being funny and awesome. He’s also the card holder— meaning he’s the one who get’s us discounts in Shakey’s because he’s got a discount card of some sort. We usually call him Mata.
Paulo. The Ultimate musician. I think he can play a dozen of instruments and I believe most of these are self-taught. Though his occasional mood swings causes some people to be a bit off him, he’s still cool. I can actually say he’s one of my closest friend when I was in high school. He had a band when we were in high school though I think he still do, but in an entirely different field. More like orchestra something(HE PLAYS THE VIOLINS!I do not know what it’s called!). He usually ends up being the group’s trip ground but most of the time, he’s cool with it. He goes by the name Ulo.
Sam. No, that’s a girl(arguable). She’s the REAL trip ground. We call her whatever we want and she just laughs at it. A really good friend and supportive one(citations needed). Sometimes she gets a little sensitive about things but most of the time, you’ll see her laughing madly about almost everything she sees. I remember her punching someone’s legs because she thought it was George’s(It wasn’t. It was some random guy’s). That was a real laugh trip. Everything she says usually end up being a joke. We usually joke about her being a boy(I think she likes it though) pretending to be a girl(meaning, gay) and we believe she made a dummy account in Facebook so she could add it up as her “boyfriend” and make us believe it’s her real boyfriend. I do not know if the issue’s been resolved though. But all in all, one would regret losing or even not having her as a friend. I sometimes call her Bakla.
Art. That’s breeishere, for those people who knows him here in Tumblr. He was my room mate and the group’s ultimate heartrob. His fan girls usually call out at him while we’re walking. But despite his irresistible magnetic powers towards girls, I believe he’s a stick-to-one man. He’s loyal to his girl and I admire him for that. People with the his degree of looks usually go over board and think they’re not enough for just one person. But he’s different and he chooses to settle with one. Though his frequent choleric phases usually annoys Paulo, they still love each other, I believe. A real bromance thing. Kudos to you two. We call him Ots, pronounced as owts. Don’t ask me why. :D
George. Another group heartrob I must say. A real talent and a very kind person. He can sing and draw and sing and poop all at the same time! He’s usually the house’s theater as we usually choose to watch movies at his laptop. When he starts singing, all you can do is stop and listen to it for a while. He’s like a cross of David Archuleta and David the-other-david-guy and a lot more! His painting skills is something I admire, too. I’ve never been good in painting, so I try to watch him every time he’s working on one of his school stuff. He’s neat and a little quiet but his jokes would totally knock you off your chair. I actually got the “de javu” joke from him. I don’t know anything to call him unlike the other folks. He’s like that. And he reminds me of John Lloyd Cruz by the way.
Hervey. Another group joker though his is a little more intense. He likes annoying Paulo and he loves annoying Art. He’s fun and protective and frank in a good way. He’s actually George’s bestfriend(and I dare say, other love affair). He’s smile usually hints everyone something’s about to happen. He’s very honest as he told us once how he dreamed about Art. That pretty much started they’re other love affair and caused Paulo to breakdown a bit(just joking). One of the strongest man in terms of relationships. I don’t know how long he’s been with his girlfriend but I know they’re still together.
Cool fact: All of these guys cried to the movie “One More Chance” though no one would admit it.
I wanted to add one more person but I think I’d just save her for another post. This post is a bit long and I don’t expect people to read this anyway. This is just like a best friends appreciation post. Again, They’re the best I’ve ever and I realized how I haven’t even thanked any of you for being my friends. So there. Thanks guys. :D
I’m an atheist and I get what you’re saying and I agree with you. They should do something better with their time. But, everytime I see the title of a video like that I get really mad. Usually I leave it alone, but maybe those people don’t. I get mad not because its not what I believe but why would you male that video? The only person to “prove” it to would be an atheist, and I guess I feel like they’re flaunting it. If I made a video of proof that God isn’t real, it would get so much more hate. And, if they have a right to put out their religious opinions, you should be able to respectfully reply. I guess it just gives them something to do.
Like what I’ve said to the other reply to my post, first I want to thank you for reading that post. I really never expected anyone to notice that post.
Now I also agree with what you have said about people making those videos. I do not hold any violent feelings against atheist nor those video makers. But I do not get their point either. They’re trying to prove something they have faith in and that’s a weird. As what I’ve said to my other reply(again), I believe faith is believing in something without any proof and trying to prove it. And I think doing otherwise just ruins that meaning.
If I made a video of proof that God isn’t real, it would get so much more hate.
Thank you for pointing that out. I never actually saw it that way. And sorry for that. But if ever there really are Christians or believers who hate on “proof that there isn’t a God” videos then I must say that also is a bit off. And I apologize for that.
Like you, I try to leave those comments as they are.
I guess it just gives them something to do.
I guess that’s the answer I’m looking for. Thank you. :D
Ok so first, I find this really amusing. I never thought this post would attract any attention from anyone outside my country. Must be the tags. Anyway, Thank you, sir, for reading this post and giving your insights and critique about it. I assure you that’s really from the bottom of my heart, and not merely a phrase of sarcasm.
Now, I want to clear out something that you have omitted(or didn’t wish to answer or have nothing to say about) from my original post: I have nothing against atheists, Sir. So that post was entirely made for people on YouTube who keeps on leaving rude comments all over the videos. Another thing is, as I have said, I am a Christian but that doesn’t mean I’m entirely pro with those videos. I have clearly stated some were feeble yet some were convincing. I never said anything about promoting them because they’re real or anything. Like most of the people in those videos, I’m merely watching them to criticize/judge it or just make myself aware of them. But unlike them, I keep my observations to myself because first, I really don’t have a YouTube account(that’s hardly an issue) and second, I do not like bashing people’s moments. I’m a Christian because I was baptized to it but I definitely hold different views on my religion than my other fellow Christians.
What? Why would we not think about the concept of “God” just because we don’t believe that “He” actually exists? I also don’t know what you’re getting at when you speak of atheists trying to disprove God… such a thing is, we know, impossible. No rational atheist will attempt to disprove “God”. But if there are videos claiming certain arguments show that God “should” exist, or even does exist, why would you be upset when atheists try to disprove these arguments? No atheist I know promotes gnostic atheism. But all of us promote critical thinking. So if someone can make a video with an argument, why shouldn’t someone be able to respond to it and critique it?
Yes, Sir, I do believe you shouldn’t think about something you’ve decided to banish from your realm. Meaning, you shouldn’t be thinking about God because it doesn’t exist in you. I know that’s a bit off but isn’t that the meaning of being an atheist? Being someone that don’t believe in God(please correct me if I’m wrong)? And what I’m getting at when I spoke of atheist trying to disprove God is the atheist in YouTube trying to disprove God. If that’s really impossible then I do not understand why they do it. As you have said, “No rational atheist will attempt to disprove ’God’.” Does that mean it’s safe to assume then that these people in YouTube aren’t rational atheists? I’m not upset about them trying to disprove God. In fact, I’m not upset about anything at all. Everyone is free to critique and respond to those videos but I hold on to what I’ve first stated, Doesn’t being an atheist mean “not believing in God” and wouldn’t it help them about these God issues if they simply banish the thought of God entirely?
Again, we don’t try to disprove something that can’t be disproved, we try to promote skepticism and rationality. Also, that makes no sense, and sounds like a C.S. Lewis quote.
But people in YouTube do. They disprove the existence of God and they even have their own videos about it. Now I believe they have the right to do so and I enjoy watching them too because as you have said, it promotes critical thinking. I’m the kind that doubts everything until I’ve got enough stuff to believe in it. I actually could have been an atheist myself if it wasn’t for the things I’ve been through. I chose to believe in God but it doesn’t mean I believe what other people tell me immediately. I try to read them before I believe them. I still apply critical thinking in my life as well as skepticism. For rationality though, I guess believing in God(and unicorns, lol) takes me away from that characteristic.
Seeing that you believe that “atheist don’t try to disprove something that can’t be disproved” but there are still people who do, I’m a little confused. What does that mean? I don’t know if you’re one of those in YouTube but please, enlighten me, Sir. What’s the point? If You really don’t have to disprove God then why do you still do it?
…..So….uh. I’m just going to leave this here.
Same here. :D
Why do I still think about the concept of God? Hmm, perhaps it’s because the society I live in constantly shoves religion down your throat and people are actually considering these bigoted homophobic cultists for presidency. Or maybe it’s because people come up with horrible arguments to try to discredit atheists. Maybe it’s because people can’t actually use science and logic to assert the existence of a god, because both things go heavily against such a notion. Or it’s because I’m secretly a theist who decides to label as atheist and be looked at like a satanist, your choice.
Ok, LOL at that Bigoted homophobic cultist for presidency. I just realized, Maybe I’m your opposite then. A secret atheist that decides to label my self a theist so I can secretly question things about my religion. I know I believe in God but I try to prove His existence and that doesn’t make sense, just like the first argument here, atheists trying to disprove God. As a Christian, I believe proofs of God aren’t necessary. That reminds me of one of my statements that I don’t entirely support Proof of God videos. They’re fun, that’s all. If Faith is in hand, then proving it would destroy the meaning of faith itself entirely. I believe in Faith as believing in something without requiring any proofs or without even trying to prove it. But I still try to prove it. Yes, by science. And yes, I agree that they totally oppose each other. But since I already believe in God, something other people think is irrational, then why not believe in something a little less irrational than it, being able to connect two parallel lines, God and science? And Sorry, but I’ll hold on to that. As for that part about society constantly shoving religion down people’s throat, I myself, detest that practice. I do not want being forced to believe in something that I do not want to believe. That I believe is just an act of desperation to get people into their sides. Now, I’m not here to discredit any atheist or anyone for that matter. Like you, I’m merely stating opinions about what I believe in. I respect every other religions and beliefs and I try to examine them.
And as for that part about “being looked at like a satanist”, it’s in the next paragraph of my original post. It really bothers me why people tend to believe in Satan and all his minions but not in God. Isn’t that a bit pessimistic? But that’s your belief, Sir and I really do not hold anything to take you away from your beliefs.
I’m glad to find you believe in unicorns too. How about fairies and trolls and vampires and the characters from Harry Potter? My personal savior is the FSM, how do you feel about him?
LOL, I was trolling, Sir. As I’ve said, I really never expected anyone to take notice of that post and I thought a little joke could lift the mood up as what I do to most of my serious posts. But don’t get me wrong, as a frustrated writer, I do believe in Unicorns and fairies and trolls and elves and vampires. But I let them stay in my writings. I think there’s hardly anything wrong with that. Now for FSM, does it really mean Flying spaghetti monster? That’s really cool. If it’s really worth going through then I guess I’ll try reading more about it.
Now I really appreciate you taking your time replying to my post. Again, I really do appreciate. Thank you very much, Sir. I hope this reply would clear out or at least answer most of your questions about my post. There, there. Hope you do well.
