The Atheist column – pleasure of blasphemy

Lot has been written about the subject of religion but i ain’t gonna be the next fan of it ! If I go back in time and waste a thought I strongly feel that beings then could have gone for a better aspect to divide themselves. A little smartness could have averted the course of history and this great barrier could have been something really unknown. The so called concept (or whatever) of god that exemplifies a religion was created just to overcome that feeling of unknown fear. But does it work ? – fvck no !

Indulging myself in bashing the almighty gives me some real pleasure. The reason for it is there is no almighty. Now that you have taken your time to let that sink in we can move ahead.

I, like countless others was at 1 time a believer of this entity called god. It was just another belief, a classic case of preach what your surroundings teach. For whatever reason I had to visit these religious places in my early teenage I did complain. Steadily though. Whether it was for the fact that they wailed beyond their capability and made funny noises to encounter something unusual is yet to be determined. I visited them for every other reason than what was expected of me. This place is in the true sense an abattoir for people like me who do not get affected. Witnessing all this became more of a pain than everything else that followed. I should have reached my saturation on day one. No matter how much I laugh over the fact that the reason I went there was to get entertained I do feel privileged to have gotten over it to actually enjoy the finer things in life. It was not some temporary phase, nor was it any kind of hormonal change. It was right there. In my face.

Questioning myself over this issue consequently led me to read Anton Szandor Lavey’s satanic bible. And this subject opened a world of possibilities for me. More on that some other time. Everything that the satanist had to say made sense.

Now that I am in this elite category of non-believers, something that really concerns me is a religious celebration. Making noise is not the issue because even I blast metal but making so much noise that you come across as someone who doesn’t give a fvck about others around is a serious concern.

Fasting or for that matter screeching like Dani Filth to expect a miracle is beyond my understanding. Inflicting oneself with pain for no particular reason is underestimating self from not being able to achieve greater things.

Don’t you know the rule ? – You are on your own.

If whatever I have written here offends anyone or makes you think of me as an aberrant I take that as a compliment. And if you like what you read then it should not be tough finding your way back here.

Blasphemy is here to say…
