Spare Me Your Lectures

I know, I know, I'm deeply sorry I've missed so many days... hell, weeks of posting. I haven't been busy, but I haven't necessarily cared, either. Blame PMS, I think. Not been the cheeriest of the Cherrios as of late, but perhaps blowing some steam here will help me gain my feet.
A friend of mine sent me a video of a documentary, I won't name it here, because the angst-y, melodramatic fifteen year-olds with their bird's eye shot pictures will watch it and exploit it grossly to their stupid lemming friend's via Myspace. That I will not stand for, not by my doing, anyway. Thus, I will only describe what it covered and let you google the summary.
This video told the history of "religion" in its first segment. It broke it down, all the way back to the beginnings of recorded transcribing, and made a very interesting chain that fed through all the religions I've ever heard of and connected them via that chain with the same list of characteristics. Now, I was under the impression that all religions had similarities, but to the point of extremity this author delved into was shocking. It shook me, physically, and spooked me spiritually. I was never the one to go to church or to say my prayers at night, but I never ranted about disproving religion, either. I say to each their own, let their religion be the guide to their life so long as they did not push it onto others of a different belief (as rare as that is).
Another segment of this video discussed the 9/11 conspiracies and the lies America told about them. That was hard to hear. I do not consider myself anything but a citizen of the U.S., and as such, I feel a subconscious bond to this country, rooted through my feet from my heart through the hearth into her old historic dirt. However, I do not believe that our government rules with a caressing right hand. Rather, I believe they use a caressing right hand, and behind their back they hold their secrets in the left one. In a gist, my opinion on America is that it had, and still has the potential of being a strong, united and noble nation, but the crooked and lustful people running it are too stupid and thirsty for the taste of wealth and power to run it wisely. Call me unethical, I call you ignorant. I do not ever denounce my allegiance to my country, I announce my allegiance to my country and break away from what our country has become.
Perhaps you still following my spiral-like writing have shed a tear or shrugged me off as a loony, corpulent hag, trying to write my way into the hearts of those who favor liberalism off the fact that it's the cool thing to believe in. I would hope you understand my polihttp://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=6270766029598452737tical view and I would hope you wouldn't read this blog assuming I jump band wagons.
The big theme of this documentary was America turning disaster into profit. That saddest thing about that statement, as much as I'd hate to believe that, I do. I see these shows with their premises getting dumbed down season by season, I see the celebrities being idolized for their "perfect" bodies and open sexuality and talent-less egos, I see the musicians surrendering their initial morals to gain the popular favor, and then I throw up a waterfall of sadness via my tear ducts. And my examples were the virgin examples, my examples did not dive into the "terrorist attacks" that were staged to initiate U.S. warfare to sponge the money out of America like... well, like a sponge in a water bucket.
I need to stop now, I need to get my glasses on. I would enjoy to hear responses, I would enjoy that very much. To know there are the intellects out there besides Jed and I. Oh, and for the record, McCain doesn't like the intellects.
