I'll think onwho to vote soon, but first I can't help but to discuss the new M83
Here it is!!
I can appreciate the change that they did, because some of his experimenting is generic and boring, which even he stated before, but this is a unique new approach that still uses their dreamy style that they are known for!
My expecations were high, (obviously haha), and so far they are delivering. I can only hope the rest of the album continues this. It can't come soon enough, am excited!! :)
A question I get asked a lot, is why I'm a firm Atheist. I usually don't know how to respond, as it's a pretty deep question that has a lot of significance for me. So, for anyone who ever asked that, here is my definitive response. Please stay respectful, and I'm honestly not searching for a debate, so this post is just to clear stuff up for the people who always asked me this.
And also a fair warning: I'm staying respectful, but if you are easily offended: this is not the place for you.
Now, let's move on. Here it is:
Humans run in circles trying to prove the existence of God, when it's rather simple; everything around us, is nature running its course. We - humans - are all stardust that will one day be wiped out, our earth will continue orbiting in the darkness of space, and be just as insignificant as it was before organisms were developed.
Noone will ever know that a thing such as the 'human race' ever existed.
It's common that humans try and comfort themselves with thoughts of that an 'afterlife' or anything of the sorts awaits us after our ultimate demise. It's nothing but a coping mechanism because people truly ~are~ afraid of death, and panic at the thought of nothingness.
When we sleep, we are unconscious, we don't expierence anything, or even acknowledge anything for that matter. Just pure nothingness until we wake up, the only reason why we have dreams is because of brain activity. If it weren't because of that, our slumber would have no significance. Same goes for when we are dead, and our brains obviously don't function then.
Also, I'm a firm believer of the 'Santa Theory' which is technically; humans are gullible. It's proven when at a young age already, we believe in stuff such as Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny. We continue believing that with firm belief, it isn't until we acknowledge our surroundings and the behaviours of others that we piece stuff together - but that's because the ones around us are aware that 'Santa' does infact - not exist.
But when one does not have the knowledge of if something is true or not, and they continue telling their children that it is; children shall continue believing it whilst growing into adulthood because the ones they look up to believe so as well. The cycle continues going on into further generations. It further blocks out the ability for children to critically think when they grow up, as they are forced upon one view whilst growing up, and were told not to question it. Which is my main problem with religion. The pure force that is put upon children.
And to further support that, the 'Snowball effect' plays a role as well. Going back to the notion of that humans are generally extremely gullible: the entire prospect of religion started off as a story, through time people have slowly forgotten it was a story, and clung onto it as 'fact' through times of hardship.
After time goes by, humans forget it started off as a story. (Speaking in convincing theoretical terms ofcourse)
Also, the fact that there are so many religions around the world says something.. why would there be so many religions if there is supposedly only 'one truth'? People bicker back and forth about which religion is right or not, and it's all rather silly.
Humans continue to kill one another in the temporary debate of: WHICH RELIGION IS RIGHT.
Taking into consideration that humans also have a lot of imagination. Topics such as resurrection is honeslty stuff you'd find in a high fantasy novel, and it's silly to think that something like that can even remotely happen. In fact, it's scientifically impossible.
Also, history proves that belief in gods -whichever god- is only temporary. Greek gods being a prime example, one day, our religions will be in the history books, and will be mocked upon the same way greek gods are mocked upon now, as other Gods will have most likely been formed by then within the minds of the gullible creatures known as: humans.
So, with this in mind, am deciding to ##Lynch Wikey
