Religion = A Fucking Joke


                I’m going to bag on Islam here for a minute, simply because Muslims are doing most of the killing right now.  In all seriousness, I’d like to know how people can be so fucking stupid that they murder people because of a cartoon image.  People who are offended by images of Mohammed are simply fucking ridiculous.  If you are offended by the prophet Mohammed being depicted, let me give you some advice:
                                DON’T FUCKING LOOK AT THE PICTURE.
                That’s pretty good advice, don’t you think? 
                People who believe in a certain ideology DO NOT get to impose their opinions on other people.  Any person has the right to subscribe to any belief system they choose – what they DO NOT have the right to do is murder other people who don’t agree with them. 
                I don’t know Mohammed – we don’t hang out or anything – but, guess what?  Neither does any Muslim who walks the face of the earth in 2015 … because MOHAMMED HAS BEEN DEAD FOR 1500 YEARS!!  People who think they’re acting on behalf of a dead prophet need to acknowledge two things:  1. You’re mentally ill.  Get some help.  2.  Mohammed wouldn’t like you.  As in:  if there’s a hell, you’re burning in it.  Those virgins you think you’re getting?  They were probably already raped by misogynists in some country where women don’t matter. 
                If a rational person reads any newspaper on any given day, here’s what they will read:  religious zealots in some country are killing people.  EVERY.  SINGLE.  DAY. 
                Believing in some version of god gives NO ONE the right to take up arms and murder other people just because they’re offended.  And on another note, I truly believe that a huge percent of these murderers don’t even carry out their “mission” (or whatever the fuck they want to call it) in the name of God or Allah or Yahweh or the Flying Spaghetti Monster – these people are just bored and lost and unemployed and fundamentally stupid.  To fight a holy war, all a person needs to do is find a bunch of intellectually stunted people who have no job and tell them they matter.  Here’s the kicker:  no one matters.  Every one of us will die, and life/history will move on.  Being offended by a picture or a statement or an idea just shows that people are petty and narcissistic and clueless. 
                Get over yourself.  Get a job.  Plant some trees or grow some food.  Build something instead of blowing things apart. 

                Oh, and as I’ve said before, if you’re going to kill a bunch of people, start with yourself.
