Insanity


Having been on this planet for 48 years now, I've come to the conclusion that human society is totally and completely insane. Every day I just observe people, watch the media, and just sit back and say, "My gosh, humanity has fallen off its rocking horse.

First off there is religion. Come on folks, the gig is up. It's NOT REAL. It's all made up. You know it is — stop playing the game. Bottom line: When you die you rot like everyone else. So, my liberal Christian friends talk about religion as some abstract "spiritual experience," but even that's no good. Again, all religions are created by MEN (sorry, the male gender actually did invent them).

Next, there is this blind obsession with junk. People gotta have their junk. They just have to go buy junk and then more junk. This whole country is overflowing with junk. People gotta buy THINGS because it makes them happy, and then they drive to church in their Hummer, slap some backs and say a prayer or two, and then it's off to Longhorns for their Sunday afternoon dinner.

Thirdly, people live for the present and immediate gratification. The future be damned. Children be damned. This whole fucking life is about getting what you can, and getting it now, and getting LOTS of it, whatever "it" may be. People just want EVERYTHING, while 1/6 of the global population is poor and undernourished.

More crazy are the games people play, the egos, the self-deception, the denial, the rationalization, etc.. Human beings are a nutty species. I am endlessly fascinated by human animals and I like them. But the fact is, they are still NUTS. Humans are totally, completely, coconuts. Just sit in any Wal-mart for a while and observe people.

So, as the American empire begins to collapse and die, I now just want to laugh and have a good time. I just want to crack jokes and enjoy my last years in this totally crazy, insane society.

Coo coo,
