12:36… I haven't moved very far from the couch. I'll need to get my Active Hour steps here soon, but there is a part of me that wants to get some thoughts on my disbelief of a higher power down.
I'm more than sure that other people have done similar writings and nothing supernatural has happened to them. I'm sure if they shared it to the wrong people, something bad would have happened to them, which could have been thought to be an "act of God." That nonsense is only further proof of the madness of religion.
The scientific community needs proof for something to be considered real, but the spiritual community has the opposite stance on that very thought. The two sides have long been opposed to each other and unfortunately, the scientific community isn't a bunch of horrible people, they are just significantly outnumbered by those who may not understand why things happen.
The spiritual community relies on the higher powers to decide a lot of things, as if they actually have any control.
12:57… I was reminded to get my steps, plus I did my 13:00 doses and I have moved back to the computer for a while.
I’m sure I’ve written before in my posts that the spiritual community is a big fan of the easiest answer and they don’t want to hear about all the reasoning that can be used to explain anything horribly complex. There is a portion of my thinking that might link together the spiritual community and the global issue of global warming. I’d like to create a poll which asks which community each person associates with and their stance on global warming. I’d throw a question about what job/industry they also associate with, likely breaking the groups into some more predictable results. The trouble with that poll/survey is that the results could be used in a very bad way or be believed to lead to terrible things, but with the right intentions, they can be used as an educational way. How some people may choose to use that education is a different story.
My belief, as it may or may not come across, is that the spiritual community will end up being what ends up ultimately deciding what ends the human race. There could be an argument that the capitalist community could end up being what drives us to the end of our civilization, but the logical capitalists will know how to make money when the globe falls into ruin. There are a great deal of conservative oil barons out there, who are overly spiritual and it's their companies that are leading the way to further global warming.
It sounds like there are a good number of folks in the fossil fuel community, who want to do some good to make their money, power the globe and not do the globe an incredible amount of harm. The real shame of it all is that the scientific community isn’t making any good progress in sustainable energy sources.
13:29… I moved back to the couch. Sitting up wasn't doing me any favors.
The biggest problem with separating the two communities is the uproar that it would cause. That uproar would likely lead to some serious violence, so if I was to hazard a guess, it would only happen once the scientific community broke away into space.
The thinking behind shows like Star Trek likely stem from the more logical thinkers, while Star Wars has a bit more of a blend, taking the logical arguments about moving into space and the spiritual community has their elements with the force. That's another argument altogether, but I can't say that I am a fan of either, so I'll leave it there.
I can see how the spiritual side is so appealing, it's easy and if you do good to each other than good will happen to you. It's a simple way of thinking and it isn't wrong, it's only logical. There's the Star Trek side showing up again, but the cultural shaming of Star Trek and its fans likely stems from this argument as well.
If only there was a way to disassociate Star Trek from my argument to somehow make it cool. Sadly, I think I'm fucked there.
I'm not going to solve any issues here, it's been something that has been sitting in the back of my head. I had some time today, so I just decided to write it down. Now, I'm going to sort out my pills for the upcoming week.
14:53… the spiritual side of Star Wars is shocking. I'm not sure I have enough time to write it all down.
15:55… Rachel did confirm with me that I will be picked up for the game and she’ll let me know when she’s on her way. I’m assuming that Troy will be along too.
17:02… Tim & Friends was good and now the Big Bang Theory is on.
