Who Made Whom?

This relates back to the "age old question" of "What came first? the chicken or the egg?" Who made whom? that is my question. One that I have obsessed over greatly! In this case I refer to Man and "god"? Did man invent "god" to reassure "his" own insecurities to explain the unknown, or was it "god" who invented man? It is also a question which we will never truly "know" an answer for, since we can only "know" what we can see, or interact with either directly or indirectly. You may say that we can interact directly and or indirectly with "god" BUT... How does one know that it is god, with whom we are interacting?? At least an omniscient omnipotent one. Which is why my own personal belief is that Man is god. I mean Man collectively as in the whole human race. Which in part does make "god" omnipotent and omniscient in so far that "god" knows everything that the entire human race "knows" and yet it is omnipotent seeing as they can do all that humans can do. This too makes "god" nearly omnipresent, at least it is where ever Man is. Yet I still say that "god" is the irrational answer to the world irrationality. This is one of the major flaws in Human society, we expect or at least the vast majority of us expect that an irrational explanation can or will make the irrational at least somewhat more rational, but unlike with multiplication two negatives do not form a positive, which is somewhat irrational in and of its self? I mean can you explain to me how making a negative number greater by a negative scale somehow turns it in to a positive? I thought not... that doesn't even make any real mathematical since at least to me. It seams somewhat hypocritical in my mind, which is exactly how I see organized religion! Most if not all major religions agree that the taking of something that does not belong to you is not right, in this case things means both lives and objects and yet organized religion is at the root of many of the wars that have gone on throughout history, most notably the crusades, and this present Iraq war! If the taking of things that do not belong to us is amoral, then how does the Christan faith or the Muslim faith justify the killings that have been made at their hands of others who are not of their faith, or in some cases are of the same "faith" they just practice it in a different manner! I am not saying that those who choose religion are bad or that religion is entirely a bad thing, it does make for a good form of support for those that need it, creating a sense of belonging for those that may need it.

b*tch

So you are probably wondering why two posts within 24 hours after four days of nothing, there is this little thing called work or maybe its called life but either way it gets in the way of that which we want to do because we must do something else. It also doesn't hurt that writing in prose is a strange feeling to me, even when I was writing papers for school I tried to make them more of a free verse poem, or I just did not do them! :-p so it has probably been pushing five years since I have written any true prose, at least since junior year of high school. On top of that I think blogging is f*cking retarded, but I feel right now it is a necessary evil! for me at least. But the main reason more than likely is that I spent 24 hours out of 36 at a little shit hole called GISAH(Grand Island Small Animal Hospital) Its not a bad job its a f*cking terrible one actually no but I like to b*tch about it cause I am sick of it after nearly 8 years of picking up dog sh*t it gets old. The one big upside is that I usually spend the better part of my eight hour shift reading or something aside from actually working as well as getting my entire work week done in three days, and being able to survive on it, thanks to the help of my parental unit for shelter and some food. I have just one more comment I am in a rather sour mood at the hands of a woman, neh little girl so[when life is a b*tch f*ck her hard]

So, I am told that my recent poetry is "better", well what the hell does that mean? Better is such a subjective term and one that is not truly very well used to describe something as subjective as a piece of art... Perhaps it can be used when comparing two works, or in a case where the product is one which is objective, i.e. four is better than two. So long as it is understood that in this case better means greater than or larger. I prefer to think of my poems of late as more mature, though this is still a subjective view, it does not care the connotation that it was worse before, only less developed, which can be construed either way as good or bad therefor it is neither. I suppose though just like every word in every language it is just a symbol for something else and as such it can be understood in any number of ways.
