Atheism and Moral Nihilism

Before anyone asks, yes, this is basically a response to Hollowshield's latest blog post. I felt compelled to respond, but found it locked. I hate the mods Of course I don't. As much as I love a good argument, things do need to be locked before they get out of hand. Since I'm making it a full fledged blog post, I have lengthened it and added more stuff.     Anyway, to business. Atheism is a simple disbelief in God or other higher powers, nothing more, nothing less. It doesn't automatically

Me vs. My Astronomy Teacher and An Ex-Air Force Member

Wouldn't that just be the ultimate cage-fight? Me, my astronomy teacher who is half my height, and the assistant math teacher who used to be in the U.S. Air Force.   So this entire week, my school has been doing various fundraisers for the Tree of Giving, which helps give toys to underprivileged children. Most of the events were staple high school fundraisers (food-eating contests, pay-for-a-prank [which ended with my math teacher smashing a phone with a ballpoint hammer in front of me - hila

"I watch a show for 7 year old little girls."

"...because inside, I don't wanna grow up. I am a manchild born in the wrong body with an interest with other men. I wanna play with toy ponies and brush their hair all day. I also join the brony community because I'm lonely. Nobody ever wants to talk about hair braiding with me but now I have friends to braid hair with!"   Obviously, this sounds utterly ridiculous. If you're ever trying to present other people's logic (e.g. during a political discussion), if it sounds ridiculous to you, chanc

Dating/Marriage/Women

(Notice: This post is a half joke. I mean all of what I said, I just don't feel as strongly on these subjects as this post would imply.)   I have no interest in women at all. I don't have any interest in guys, either. I don't want to date, I don't want long terms relationships, none of that. You might be thinking to yourself: "Oh, Hylian. You say that now, but when you-" Nope. Stop right there. There are a number of reasons I have for not wanting a long term relationship, none of which will ev

Atheism and Morals

So often I hear atheists say how stupid it is to believe in any form of God or religion and how they are the direct cause of all the worlds problems. Then in the next paragraph they'll be spewing some crap about how humans have some moral obligation to maximize pleasure - meaning healthcare + foodstamps + all that progressive civil rights causes. No.   If you are an atheist, then there is no such thing as morals. There is no such thing as good and bad and labeling humans as such is complete

I DID IT!

I DID IT!   At the talent show, I was able to get up on that stage and face everyone... and to top it all off, people loved my poem "Judgment"   Because, at any given time, people can not understand one another. We are a mystery to ourselves and to others. So This raises a question that I feel needs to be heard. Just what is it in our minds, that makes us feel the need to judge? What is judging? Why is it needed in our minds for us to function in a society of destructive criticsim. N

Oh great. This is just AWESOME....

I'm surrounded in a house of sick people. That's just greeeaaat #sarcasm   I hope I don't get as sick as the others. I HATE throwing up. I hope not being severely sick in years means I have a strong immune system. I just hope it's not the stomach flu, as I have no flu shot. (I don't normally get it, as it seems people who get the shot get the flu more often than my family does)

The Tipping Point

For this blog entry, I will speak/type in the quotes by others:       “The Democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.” - Thomas Jefferson     "America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves." = Abraham Lincoln     "America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold:its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life.

Adorkable? I Think Not!

My kitten Archer is in a cone. He had to get stitches on his belly because my little Flarcher decided to eat rubber bands and needed to get surgery. Seriously, what is he? A goat? Anyway, when my mom came home with the cone, she held it up and said, "Look at the dorky little cone Archer has to wear." It is pretty dorky, not even adorkable. Archer is very well convinced that there is no possible way he can eat or drink with it on, so we have to get it off him at mealtimes. That cone carries one h

Signs is one of the worst Sci-fi movies ever.

DISCLAIMER: I last watched Signs about 4 years ago, and haven't rewatched it for this post because its not on Netflix.       ALSO: spoilers.       So, way back when, some friends told me Signs was an awesome and scary scifi movie, and I thought "cool, I like awesome, I like scary, and I like scifi, I should watch this". I promptly forgot all about it for about a year until I noticed it at blockbuster and rented it.   It sucked.   Don't get me wrong, the beginning was okay. I was liki

Somebody come control my hormones for me!

Now, I don't care what you think about teenage relationships and wastes of time. This is carnal urges I'm talking about. My pubescent hormones are just aching the crap inside of me.   There's this freshman girl that I'm crazy about. I posted once in the "What would your ideal bf/gf be" and she's pretty much exactly what I'm talking about, other than the part where she has to "fall head over heels" for me. But she's very close.   Honestly, she's a ton like me. Shares all my interests, has m

There Is a Big Event This Saturday

A writing blog is not enough. I must also rant about my daily life as well.   So the cross-country season ended last Wednesday, but that doesn't mean running is over for ole' Kolth. No sirree. This Saturday is one of the biggest and most important races I've ever entered myself in: the Junior Olympics.   Well, the state level. BUT STILL.   Last year my Asian buddy (hi NeonDinosGoMeow) entered J.O, and he managed to make it through state and regionals and qualified for Nationals. This year

Rant # 1 - Human Ponies

I would not be impressed if you already knew that I would rant about this, because if you visited my latest art threads you would know that I am very mad about this situation. Ok, when people draw ponies in human form, what do you think that are these traits that makes them more human to you? To me, having human eyes, nose, mouth, ears, hair, body (without a tail), legs, arms and mainly fingers, it's a good start but it's not enough.   What am I going with this? well, in the past days I decid

When does a story stop being a 'Short Story'

I've been writing a book for a while now, a book based on the lore of League of Legends, I quickly ran a word check on it and found out that I've written 30 pages (assuming an average of 240 words per page (to get this figure I chose a selection of pages from the hunger games and got the average word count from them))   Right now I consider myself to be nearly half way through chapter 2, although I've had writters block for 3+ months, I have started writing some short stories based on Assassin

Pay your fair share

I have absolutely zero respect for anyone who buys something that someone else made and then turns around and says "wait you have more money than me now", and subsequently has everyone else in the area pull out a gun and say "give me back the money until we break even"   I dunno maybe I could write more on this topic but this is really all that needs to be said. The thought that there are actually people that believe this is the moral thing to do is seriously disturbing to me

Historical Inaccuracy Criticizing!

So, I have this little erm..statue of a fifer on my desk. And simply because I am bored, I am going to criticize it's historical inaccuracy! I can imagine most of you would not care about such a thing, but i'm still doing it .   As you can see, the musician has red colored piping on his frock coat, yet a bugle on his kepi. Bugle was the insignia for infantry, yet the color red stood for artillery. So, this guy is an artillery-infantryman? Another thing is that he had a pistol on his belt. Musi

Living

I love books. Maybe a bit too much.   This morning I skipped breakfast to read a chapter in "Ask the Passengers" by A.S. King. Last night, I stayed up past midnight reading "Jellyfish Dreams" waiting for the election results that I didn't even see because it didn't matter then, I was too far into the life of Sam the Biologist who lost his fiancee. Inn the past week I've skipped math, chemistry, world history, and comp homework to work on a story and to read "A Brave New World."   I have sp

Presidential Election Analysis

I've been watching CNN since the election tallies last night, and as the votes come in, the more we're seeing the demographics come up and the more we're seeing in regards to the strengths of the Obama campaign and weaknesses of both the Romney campaign and the GOP entirely.   First, the weaknesses of the Romney campaign: Its hard-line stance on immigration reform. There is a huge concentration of Latinos located in the southwest and Colorado. About 65 percent of the people said that the ille
