MAN IS MADE IN GOD’S IMAGE



MAN IS MADE IN GOD’S IMAGE
AND
GOD IS SUCH A PRICK THAT HE THOUGHT NOTHING OF FUCKING DROWNING EVERYBODY. 

Everyone is appalled at the cruelty of ISIL – but should we be?   The natural desire of groups to live fear free, and especially the affluence of our country, allows us to maintain a system of laws and standard of behavior that suppresses the darker nature of our human kind.
  
We are all (especially males) capable of heinous cruelties toward people ‘not like us.’  You see it in wars and insurrections and mob violence…  When the veneer of civilization is removed the human being often reverts to its baser animal instincts.

You want a snapshot of the nature of human beings?  Just watch elementary kids on the playground barbarize the week and different.
  
Our closest kin in the animal kingdom is the Chimpanzee.  We share 98.4% of our DNA makeup with our simian cousins.    When we see the actions of a marauding band of male chimps attacking a weaker band we are seeing a mirror image of ICIL.



From the earliest history of mankind, cruelty toward weaker groups or individuals has been the bloody legacy of our species.  War is the natural state for humans and peace the interval for rearmament.

Stoning, beheading, lynching, burning, electrocution, gas chambers, shootings, knifings, beatings, drowning, rape, torture: How can I kill the?  Let me count the ways…

We are all capable – and capable of justification…
  
We can put a hellfire missile up your ass baby, and that evening go home and have a barbecue with our family.
 
Decapitating: It is an atrocity when someone else does it; but when we nuke a quarter of a million men, women, and children – we are the good guys; just bringing peace, justice and the American way to the ‘others’ - the bad guys.

I’m just saying:

the Ol’Buzzard

  1. Perhaps you wouldn't be so distressed by our nation's atrocities and hypocrisy if you quit using the pronoun "we". I haven't "nuked " anybody and I don't accept guilt for the actions of others. I have my own atrocities to regret and that is enough. Each individual should be responsible for their own actions agreed. Caring the guilt for others actions is irrational. Just my humble opinion.......

    1. You are right rat. However we are members of a society that carry out actions in our name. A dilemma isn't it.

  2. Humans can be barbaric animals, it is true. We have ample evidence of it. But just because something is true doesn't make it right.

COMMENT: Ben Franklin said, "I imagine a man must have a good deal of vanity who believes, and a good deal of boldness who affirms, that all doctrines he holds are true, and all he rejects are false."
