This thing about war, I just can't stop thinking about it. My childhood was filled with discrimination, racial insults, religious insults, and just down right pathetic ethnic carnage. My parents were Catholic Christian you see, and although i respect all kinds of religious beliefs I just didn't like how everyone that surrounded me acted so racist and close minded. I used to go to a purely Catholic school and the teachers there would constantly talk trash about other religions like Islam and Judaism. Sometimes I would try to speak out against all that to my fellow classmates, but I just.... just was scared. The thought of every single person in my life totally hating me and shunning me or declaring me as a heretic or whatever just kept my mouth shut. Although a "bit" racist, my teachers and parents were still respectful people, but I do NOT want to follow their way of expressing their religion. I wanted to go back to my hometown, Las Vegas, the place where I was born and the place which my parents moved away from because they thought the place would spoil me. The people their were.... eccentric, but that is why I loved the place! It felt like a haven for open mindedness..... errr..... no I am not talking about the hookers and the beer and the gambling, I am talking about how the people there RESPECT each other.
The amount of stress my daily life offered to me when I was young forced me to take refuge in the outside world, the world is so full of different things it just fascinated me, I was really excited to grow up and get out there in the open and just explore! The existence of war between people disturbed me though, it disturbed in a way that I just wanted to grab people's head and break them on walls to make them THINK about what they are doing. I just couldn't understand why people hate each other soooo much that they take it to a point of mass killing, they take it to a point that they develop weapons of mass destruction. I also couldn't understand why I cared! It was a feeling that just made me extremely angry to hear people concentrating their talk and interests to war. I also couldn't understand why they would waste so much money on massive war machines, when they could just spend their money on preserving humanity instead of destroying it? Sure a gun can help people protect themselves or.... have some... fun, but why the gigantic battleships and stealth bombers that cost million and millions and even trillions of dollars?! I long for a world with more open mindedness and respect, a world with people who care about each other! But alas, it will never happen.....
But as I said, I held on to my "research" of the open world, held on to meeting new people and creating my very own haven of joy and respect, which is why I stay here on Team9000.... I just feel that everyone here has so much respect for each other (I am not exactly included in that radius of respect to most people but I still love them
), everyone here can share their thoughts freely without some bitch bitching about your opinions... most of the time. People here have tolerance to other religions and races. I thank all people here that tried to help me to feel at home here. (whether they tried to help me in their very own or tried to help in a direct and friendly way) But I am repeating the same thing all over again, this is the time I shall stop typing....
