| Annual rantings |
| 02.27.06 (6:33 am) [edit] |
Perhaps it is an annual thing, but I once again feel the need to mention this.
I do write some things in this blog which take people out of their comfort zones. Occasionally, I get called names and belittled by people who are of the oppinion that somehow, the way they see the world is the right way and the way I see it is completely and utterly wrong.
Believe it or not, I actually don't have a problem with this. My problem rears its ugly head when people are cowardly enough to inject a short-sighted and low-brow remark without feeling the need to justify or explain it in any intelligent fashion, after which, they flit off into cyberspace feeling that they put me in my place.
My ramblings on this blog are my own. They are my ideas, fears, reasonings and what have you. I have every right to have them, and they are not intended to preach the word or try to sway anyone into my corner. They are meant to provoke intelligent thought and question the motives surrounding why people behave the way they do.
When I present my ideas, I do not intend to declare them to be true to the world. But they are true to me, and when they are put into this page, I attempt to explain them in the best way that I can. I would expect the same consideration when reading your comments, should you feel the need to make them.
I am open to suggestions and feedback of a constructive sort. It helps me put thoughts that are sometimes muddied into better perspective. I know that there is something here that concerns me, but often cannot fully articulate it. The result can be a somewhat clumsy attempt at a rant.
"This is just sad.", unfortunately just doesn't cut it for me. Why is it sad? Tell me, 'cause I value your view on it. If you care enough about it to comment on it, you can care enough about it to prove me wrong. Because, often in your narrow and offending comment, you are only proving me right.
It is sad...I agree. It really is. Now explain yourself. What is sad? The fact that I actually think about things? What kind of person goes through life without engaging in deep thought about norms, actions, consequences and obligations?
I would say that it is the same kind of person who would liquidate a forest without worrying about the future, the land, or the other people living on this planet. The same kind of person who thinks that the World Trade Organization isn't actually creating poverty, because they just believe whatever they've been spoon-fed by the politicians. The kind of person who is too lazy to figure out what is really going on in the world and chooses to ignore the obvious in order to confirm his own concepts of it. The kind of person who chooses not to see that homeless person begging for money on a street corner in February, but will see fit to help them on Christmas Eve, and feels self-righteous for it.
So, your comment is actually worse than saying nothing at all. All it does is state that you believe something and don't know why. You think that I should believe what you believe but you can't justify or explain it. I can almost detect your fear and unwillingness to contribute useful information, if you can explain it and choose not to. There is no right and no wrong. Life doesn't come with an instruction manual, and human kind has had to try to figure it out on our own. How could likely is it, that everything we think is right, actually is?
So lets take a deep breath, and rationalize things a little before coming to snap judgements without any backup. If you can't do that, then you have no business reading this blog and should have heeded the warning.

you appologize too much... opinions are allowed by intelligent peoples such as yourself, and we've had discussions on various topics where we did not agree, albeit we didn't get all that 'into' the discussions, I have a problem with relaying what I would like to say to my mouth from my brain so its somewhat comfusing at times.
however, never feel for an instant that I personally would not respect your thoughts or line of thoughts, its nice that people are'nt all paper cutouts of each other... what would be the original cutout? wesakejak? jesus? Loki? hehehe...
and you do give a warning... you are free from being sued... *G*
I enjoy blogs with opinions... keep opinionating... Yours are at least hinted throughout with humour, and clear thought, and with some prethought to them.

Thanks, Care. I know that our oppinions differ on certain things. It doesn't mean that either one of us is lesser for it though. In fact, it is what differentiates us and makes us interesting.
