Well, at my school, the Day of Silence is next Wednesday. For those of you who don’t know, thats a day where, if you so choose, you stay quiet from the start of 1st period to the end of 4th, since I only have 4 periods a day. For some reason, this is symbolic for people who couldn’t come out of the closet because of things people say, ie faggot or homo or “I’m an insensitive prick so I hate you” or anything else along those lines. Well, I plan to participate in this, since gay people are…well, they don’t need this, but they take a lot of shit, so I’ll do it. Anyways, what was the point of this blog? Well, since this is coming up, it got me thinking of gay people and how that is an issue. So I thought I’d share my viewpoints on a few controversial issues. Not many, since I don’t have a developed opinion on many things, but some…I guess.
Gay relationships/marriage: I’m for it! No, its not because I believe that everyone deserves love because its just that sooper speshul. Its just that, under the US constitution, every man is created equal. Meaning if one can marry, all of them can. Women too, its just that in olden times, people were less open. Of course, examples of overcoming racial and gender discriminations don’t seem to make an impact on people, so prosecution of someone’s sexual orientation has become a fad.. If anyone wants to bring religion into this topic, well I have 1 thing to say. America isn’t a theocracy. God says no? Big fucking deal. God probably says no to other gods as well, but religious tolerance is a common thing here. If there is a God, does anyone really think he gives a shit about humans? Its already known that the universe is infinitely vast. In all of that space, which there is A LOT of, does anyone really think only 1 planet was fit for any form of life, sentient or not? Meaning, why would God waste his time with just here? Why would he care? Why should anyone care if someone else is going to hell? I mean, EVERYONE is going to hell if the bible is the truth. Everyone. Well, everyone but Mormons.
Abortion: I’m pro-choice. There are restrictions, of course. There is a time when babies are aborted, which is the first trimester of gestation. At least, thats true as far as I know. (I may be an ignorant little bastard, though.) At that point, its nothing but a parasite. I really don’t think people should be getting abortions after 8 months, but I’d rather allow that then ban it. To people who think its bad, I’m sure they’ll think there are instances where its fine. Thats not being very firm in their beliefs… The clichéd example is a 14 year old girl being raped. It seems pedophiles are abundant in the world of aborted fetuses, since I’d think any raped woman would get that option, not just the young ones… Anyways, if its okay when this happens, it should be okay for any instance. You may be asking, “Why, exactly, is that true, Casey? Assuage our confusion with your infinite knowledge.” or you may not be asking that. Either way, I’ll be answering that question. A baby is a baby. A human life is a human life. There is no single reason that can make abortion go from a travesty to something that is okay. Its pretty much all or nothing. Also, if anyone wants to delve further into human life, I have 2 more things to talk about. Masturbation and ovulation. I’m sure all of you know what masturbation is. I’m even sure most of you have done it. I’m also expecting a 6th grade education from all 12 of my readers, so you should know what the white stuff is. Sperm. Meaning a possible life. Getting rid of that many at once is BAD for people who don’t like “wasting” human life. To top it off, even while procreating, all those sperm die! We should take one sperm and artificially inseminate women, to eliminate all the murder. Good idea, no? Oh, and about ovulation….that egg is a possible life. Haphazardly discharging it is bad. We need to get scientists away from less important things so they can figure out a way to stop the abomination known as “Dot.”
Animal Testing: Here’s a hippie topic for all you hippies out there. Enjoy if you’re not too baked. I’m pretty moderate on this issue. I’m not sure if it goes on, but things like cosmetic testing on animals is…stupid. Do I think it should happen on humans instead? Yes. I also think strange chemical combinations that are potentially harmful to the human body shouldn’t be put into products that cost a lot of money and make you look like a whore. However, for things like medical testing, I’m all for it. In this world, humans are above other animals. We are at the top of the food chain, meaning its our world. Thats how it goes. The survival of animals, which is a good thing, comes second to our survival, which is a better thing. Animal testing for medicinal purposes is a good cause, though not for the animals or for hippies. With shorter periods of gestation, more offspring and, though I hate to say it, expendability(which is NOT a word…) certain animals are perfect for this kind of testing. So, to recap, cosmetic testing = bad. Medical testing = good.
Suicide: I’m all for it! Let those bastards kill themselves. Whose gonna care? Not me, thats for damn sure… Aaanyways, I’m not sure if this subject counts as a “controversial” issue, but I’m running out of ideas… I think its fine. I really do. If you don’t want to live, then don’t. Chances are, it won’t affect anything other than the feelings of those around you. Other than that, no impact to the way things work will be made. You probably wouldn’t be that important if you stayed alive, anyways. The “value” of life is pretty low, after all. In my opinion, the meaning of life is to reproduce and carry on your genes to the next generation. Thats how animals live and humans are, for the stupid people that don’t know, animals.
Well, seeing as how my last topic was underdeveloped and about something that isn’t really controversial, I’m going to assume sleep is wearing me down. So, I’m gonna go to sleep now. I know you don’t care, but I”m ending my post like this, so I’m giving you a long-winded explanation of why I’m saying what I’m saying. I just can’t stop, can I? I just keep going and going and going and going. Ok, I’m done now.
