Let’s talk about family

Now my family is screwed. I suppose everyone’s family has some screwyness to them, but my entire family is screwed (with the noteable exception of my brother Paul). I have a sister Ginny who is the drama queen from hell and thinks everyone should fall down on their knees and worship her. A sister Emily who is so out of touch with reality she can’t feed her kids anything but chicken nuggets because that’s all they choose to eat, a brother Randy who thinks he’s too good to associate with anyone, a father who thinks the entire world revolves around him, a mother who is Mormon and if you don’t think exactly like she does you are shit.

Then there is my husband’s family. My family used to be all Mormon (converted in the mid 70’s). Well not me, I was told join the Mormon church or get out of the family (at 13).  No one knew I thought the Mormon church was a crock of shit and a cult (except the Bishop of our church Bishop Peterson, who said well whatever your family thinks is right). So I went to church to shut everyone up and keep the peace. My husband’s family was raised Mormon. So, when my husband and I got together, his family thought, “oh good, he marrying a good Mormon girl and he will come back to the church”. (He never believed any of their bullshit either.) His family didn’t know I was the furthest thing from a “good Mormon girl” there could ever be. 

I was an agnostic. I really didn’t care about religion, didn’t care about church, couldn’t be bothered about any of it. Until I met my husband (the big fallen Mormon) who encouraged me to use the critical thinking skills I’d honed in college to religion. To really examine what this country was founded on, to really explore what the current politicians are really up to. So now my eyes are open. 

And now, his family excludes me from all emails.  I am a pariah. So all the friendly banter, all the family chatter, was nothing but a ploy to get me to get my husband back involved with the church. I am now excluded from all family emails, once in awhile they comment on my posts when I post what’s going on with our lives. Alan has no Facebook presence so the only news they get about him is through me and my Facebook page. 

Today, Alan sent me yet another forwarded copy of something going on in the family. I’m done. I won’t allow them to use me to get news of Alan via Facebook anymore. I have blocked the entire family.  Mine and his. I’m done. We don’t believe what they believe and I won’t be used anymore.

Family doesn’t mean blood. 




Let’s talk about friends

Friends are people who are there for you through thick and thin. Friends consider you a part of themselves, an arm or leg or kidney. If they lose you, it’s a tragedy not an “oh well” I can go get more. Friends may have their own problems, but when yours are overwhelming and you need them, theirs take a back burner. Friends listen instead of one up you. Friends love you even when you fuck up royally. Friends tell you when you have spinach in your teeth or when that outfit makes you look like the side of a Barn. Just needed to get that off my chest.

The Global Elites- What are they up to?

Another wild conspiracy theory which actually isn’t so wild after all. You’ve heard that some very influential (aka elitist) people are buying up properties in remote parts of the world such as New Zealand. Why? If all the nuclear plants in America were to blow up the natural currents and wind patterns would bypass New Zealand. The elites are Democrats. Why would they want completely open borders? They want everyone (all the poor, all the criminals, undesirables etc) to come to the U.S.  Why? In the rest of the world, the “undesirables “ population (poor, criminals etc) live in the cities. Including here. So if everyone they want to get rid of (Agenda 21 get rid of 90% of the population) live in the cities (and a large percentage of them have walked in through our open borders), just nuke the whole U.S. and a few major cities around the world and 90% of the population that is draining the earth is gone.

Why rush to get artificial intelligence going when there are so many people who need jobs.  The elites are also heavy into financing populating other planets.  The manpower needed to maintain AI is minimal. AI can be used to maintain AI

They need to wipeout the “useless people”. I firmly believe they will do it with bioweapons

They’ve already started. Years ago. Toxic vaccines, toxic preservatives, toxic medications, toxic pesticides.

Promotion of undeclared sexuality thereby promoting sex with anyone spreading STDs.




Religion

Who knows why but every once in awhile I think about religion. Maybe I miss the comraderie and social aspect, maybe I’m trying once again to find a label for what I believe. I don’t believe in the Christian god. I have no memory at all of ever believing in god. We are all born atheists, then we are brainwashed into believing whatever our parents believe.

Recently I took a couple of online quizzes to see where I fit in. Both said said Universal Unitarian with Pagan undertones. So, I looked up UU and read about what they believe. Basically they believe anything you want but you’re jumbled in with people who do believe in god and people who don’t. People who do believe in reincarnation and people who don’t. It’s basically a jumbalaya of beliefs all thrown in to one church, some which completely contradict each other. How does that work? What sort of church service would you have with people who believe in god and atheists in the same congregation?

So, I’ll throw out what I believe here and see what comes back to me.

1. I don’t believe in a god you have to worship. Worship, jealousy, hate, revenge, sacrifice, murder, enslavement, oppression, discrimination, coercion, blackmail and sexism are attributes of human beings. No god I would worship would have these traits. Gods who have these attributes are made up by greedy, controlling, narcissistic, sociopathic men.  I don’t believe in a god that has ever or will ever have anything at all to do with people. I do believe in a “oneness” for lack of a better word.

2. What is the origin of the universe? Don’t know, don’t care, although I suspect this planet was seeded.

3.  What happens to us when we die? I do believe in the soul. Maybe soul is the wrong word. We have energy. Energy never dies. I do believe in reincarnation. I do believe we have lessons to learn for each life. I do believe we come back with little to no knowledge of our previous lives. I cannot believe in a god who gives us one life, throws some people down into a starving life in Ethiopia and says that’s it, that’s all you get.

4. Why is there evil and suffering? As stated above, I believe we each have our own particular lessons to learn from life. My lesson in this life is different from my next door neighbors lessons. Some people’s lessons are to experience true evil. Some people’s lesson is to experience victimhood. Some is to experience mass loss, hunger, abuse, poverty or success, being artistic, helping others etc.

5. Is it necessary to worship? No. That is a man made concept. I do believe it is necessary to respect and honor but not gods. The earth and everything on it and each other.

6.  Is there heaven or hell? No. Those are man made concepts designed to control people. They are threats.

7. What are my beliefs concerning abortion, divorce, pot, LGBTQ (and whatever else)? Whatever. It’s your life. They are your lessons. I have no right to judge you, tell you what to do or say you can’t do it.

8. Do I believe the Bible is a religious text or the word of god/Jesus. No. Most of it is either horrible, boring or contradicts itself. It’s a group of books a bunch of guys in Constantinople put together to control the people. It’s been changed so many times it’s not funny and basically it only needs one rule. Don’t be a dick.

So what am I looking for? We are social animals. Most of us are not hermits. I’m introverted and don’t care for participating in groups but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to feel like I belong. That doesn’t mean I want to find a small group and dance naked in the moonlight revering the earth either.

I need ideas.
