I know I have not been updating very much on this site and the new. There were many events that has past accompanied by my busy schedule, workload, and troubles. I am still recovering from cough and flu, and previously, fever. So, this sickliness of me is bonding me to my very limits. I hope I could get well soon.
Besides, I have busy planning my essay in advance due to the fact that I have four units to juggle with this semester. It has been quite taxing and draining on me and I really have to thank my fortunate encounter with some things that have enlightened me during my hiatus.
First, I discovered more than just genetic and biological explanations to how things work. I began to uncover things which are known to be spiritual. Not dealing with anything of the spirit here, but phenomenons that are known to be mysteriously existing around us. Things like love, faith, trust, compassion, nurture, growth, maturation, and development. Things which are non-natural in nature, or rather, things which are of nurturing quality.
Next, I came into conclusion that we are limited in our knowledge, and hence, the need to be religious or spiritual is not a crime, but the real crime is to (1) enforce one's own belief against another's by force and other political or social means, (2) to take a scripture literally by discarding reason, (3) and to hold on to reason by thoroughly discarding the irrational. All these three mistakes are the ones made out of emotions and strong fundamental beliefs, rather than pure reason.
The reason why I disagree with the new atheism is because they disregard the irrational by simply forming a schema about religious people and calling them insane, or mad, or psychologically impaired. I was once like these atheist until I thought about the logic of birthday celebration. The question is, "Why do we blow out the flames from the candles of a birthday cake?" It would seem irrational and crazy to people who do not celebrate such ritual before in their entire life. So in conclusion, we do not have the position to judge what is irrational or rational until we experience certain phenomena which gives us our personal solution to our life.
Without time and space, we would not be able to exist, let alone to think. That is why we are here... because of time and space, and of course many other things that we yet to discover in time to come. I am a skeptic still - a skeptic of religion, and a skeptic of science. Science can bring us to a certain extent of knowledge, but we should also value experience and other phenomena beyond our understanding or belief.
Anyway, while travelling back home, I decided to create a different theme for this main blog of mine. I realise that I have not been sharing my life and my struggles for quite a long time. And, especially right now, when I am attached, I do feel certain difficulty trying to express myself to my significant other, and also, embarrassed to tell anyone about how I actually struggle to keep my feelings under control whenever I have certain thoughts of commiting adultery.
Yeah yeah... you guyz can condemn me for this thought, but honestly, this is what many men are struggling with. Please do not blame us, because there are many things that women should know about men. The very first thing I want to highlight is that men are not jerks by nature. They are biologically and sociologically made in such a way that they function differently than their women counterparts. I despise a certain group of people, regardless of gender, who have a schema, or a stereotype of how a man or a woman should be like. Such shallow mentality would not be the point I would make in my future entries, and would not be the aim of my blog. Anyway, I don't really care about the criticisms I would get by expressing my struggles here, because I would also end with a positive note. So, if there are things which you find offensive, just ignore.. the same way like I would ignore your future nonsense, if that ever happens.
I'm getting ready to sleep now... it's late. I'll blog another day.
