Inertiatic ESP

Ugh. Hi.

Sorry, It's just been quite the... strange day.

I dunno. On with the blog post!

wait a sec let me change the alignment...

ALRIGHT.

So... Parenting, huh?

Now listen, as a teenage girl I am totally NOT ready to be a parent. It would suck to be a parent at this point in time... But that doesn't mean I haven't thought about how parenting is going to work for me. 

I was recently told that a person in my family told my parents they were raising me wrong.

WRONG = NO JESUS

Now believe me, I have nothing against parents that raise their kids around "da lawd" but I don't really get some things. Like... Are you gonna be okay if your child believes that there isn't a god? Whoa whoa, I'm sorry, am I crossing a line? It's cool if you want to raise your child with Christianity or Judaism or whatever you believe in, but you have to remember that there is that possibility your child may learn what a belief is and then realize they don't believe in anything they thought they did.

You may ask... How do I know this?

THAT'S RIGHT CHILDREN!

I was once an extreme Christian. Like... EXTREME.

It got to the point where I wouldn't talk to Jace because he believed in Atheism, and I wouldn't listen to Tool because they're Atheists...

Good times.

Turns out, my father is Agnostic, my mother is Christian, and my brother is Agnostic Atheist.

THEY'VE BEEN LIKE THAT FOREVER.

For me, I was raised with Christianity due to my grandparents and my great aunts and all that jazz, and in their church everybody had to be Christian or be hated by pretty much EVERYONE and live eternity in HELL! Little Lizzery learned that even though she knew nothing about the Christian faith, she had to hate everyone that didn't believe in it! Yay!

I'm not the kind of person to judge or hate people nowadays but when I was like 8 I was.

These are the kinds of people I stay away from... Judgmental, rude, etc.

They classify themselves as pure, nice, and kind people EVEN WHEN THEY ARE HOLDING UP HUGE SIGNS SAYING "ASK ME WHY YOU DESERVE HELL!!!"

I've seen it.

I got a "question" an my ask.fm saying "ew, you're an atheist."

Why is this a thing? I was raised with Christianity if that makes you feel any better, but I believe some things are outrageous.

Believing in something means you personally think something is accurate. One second, I'm gonna Google belief.

be·lief

Oh wow! Look! "An acceptance that a statement is true or that something exists."
Like really, believing in God is just like believing in Unicorns. NOT believing in God IS STILL JUST LIKE BELIEVING IN UNICORNS!
Annnd let's take a look at the 2 on the board children. "trust, faith, or confidence in someone or something."
Wow. Look at that. It doesn't say "that you force on your children or you will rot in hell."
Maybe because that's rude.
I'm not raising my children with any religion because I want them to figure out what they believe in.
Who knows, maybe I'll marry an extreme Christian...
But I still think my kids should believe in what they actually believe in.
Cool.

If you disagree with my opinions leave it in the comments below and maybe we can have a sophisticated chat about these things.

I do not mean to offend anyone in these posts. I know religion is a difficult subject but I accept those of all religions and really hope we can get along, ha.

Love and fried potatoes,
Lizzery.

OH YEAH. The song for this post is Inertiatic ESP by The Mars Volta off of my favorite album of theirs, De-Loused in the Comatorium, which is an album of songs based on the dreams a man had while in a coma I believe. Highly recommend their music. Like totes my goats.
