Getting back to the basics

Well, it's been a while. I had almost given up on this since I regret all the rants I made. I don't want the Mariners to be sold to Orleans, I want to see them for many years to come. Yes, I have been incredibly depressed from Ichiro's trade, but the team is doing well, so I can't complain too much, heck, El Rey Felix Hernandez pitched a perfect game! However, I have gotten some fears since my negative prediction of Ichiro came true, namely, that my other negative predictions will come true, like Nintendo going bankrupt from no one buying the 3DS or the Wii U, or that Romney will win the election, which will lead to him destroying gay rights "in the name of Jesus" (if you REALLY knew Jesus, you wouldn't destroy gay rights), which will lead to an anti-Christian revolt led by the antichrist, which leads to ALL Christians going to an Auschwitz and the Gulag would be preferable type of prison system for seven years. But let's talk about something else, shall we? After a reread of my last version of my story inspired by the Cyrus family, I've decided to revise it in my free time and post chapters here. I will also post my memoirs, and the goal is that either or all of these things will one day become a book. I don't know when the first one will be up, I've been overly requested by an art site to write stories for fellow users there. Plus, there's a lot of other things going on in my life.

Someone told me how to make a petition.

Nintendo, Save Jill Valentine and others from Capcom!

I read this today. [link]
This is depressing, I've not seen such a violation of human rights by video game companies...ever!  If such a thing is happening, if Capcom is really saying "you're having a heart attack, okay, five minute break, then back to work!" and if they're heading for bankruptcy, I urge someone to make a petition urging Nintendo to step in and bring Resident Evil into their fold.  The stories are gripping, the characters are lovable (I hate Wesker, though, but that's because he's an effective villain with no regard for human life...maybe the programmers were sending an SOS?) and I've written enough, played enough, read enough and enjoyed enough to feel that Jill Valentine would fit right in with Princess Peach, Zelda and Samus Aran.  I even tried to trend on Twitter that Jill Valentine should be in Super Smash Bros. 4.  I'd also like Felicia in some Nintendo games, and if Nintendo gets her, that'd be sure to happen, but one thing at a time.  Hopefully, people can get active or give me ideas to get active, I don't know how to start an online petition.

Middle Church thoughts

I've been reading Bob Edgar's "Middle Church," and feel it has many valid points that are all but ignored for the most part.  Namely, it asked why our foreign policy doesn't help enough people, why we invaded Iraq instead of helping those suffering genocide in Sudan, and also stated that what was written in Leviticus about homosexuals shouldn't keep us from showing love and kindness.  But I feel the country doesn't care, that for the most part, we like to think Christians are just like Pat Robertson and most Republicans.  This also incensed me about a majority of the books at the Family Christian Stores.  Don't get me wrong, it's a nice place, but this book and one of the last times I received their catalogue make me wish that those in power of "Christian media" made different choices.  Namely, they like to declare people who haven't violated their rules or are people who used to, but left it behind for good their face.  Pat Robertson, Tim Tebow, even Albert Pujols and Justin Bieber (hope he survived being stabbed, no one should die that young) have been declared good by them, they talk so much in their books and magazines about their faiths.  It makes me wonder, though, why do they do this?  To make us hip?  To make us popular?  To denounce those who don't "follow the rules?"  Years ago, Josh Hamilton, Billy Ray Cyrus and Miley Cyrus sat in those seats.  But Josh Hamilton had a relapse of drinking, and instead of asking people to pray for him, interviewing him about the process of recovery, they chose to go to the next athletes who pray and ignored him.  Miley Cyrus underwent the same rejection when she sang "Can't Be Tamed" (a fine song of independence) and declared her support for gay marriage.  Sometimes, I feel that the rejection was so severe and mean that she quit the Christian religion.  Of course, aside from Buddhist tweets and tweets quoting atheists, I have no actual proof.  Our magazines should be interviewing them, finding where they are in the walk of life, we're not perfect rule-followers, and we shouldn't want to create an illusion or stereotype of us as Right-Wing, or else we may frighten away potential converters.  Our magazines should talk to Nicko McBrain, drummer of Iron Maiden and Born-Again Christian, try to see what insights he has to the faith and being a member of an iconic heavy metal band.  They should ask Robert Plant what was the inspiration for Led Zeppelin singing "In My Time of Dying" and him as a solo artist covering "Satan, your kingdom must come down," he may have some unique perspectives worth hearing.  But, alas, at this point, that will probably never happen as the Right-Wing Radicals seek to say that they are the only Christians.

Hitting bottom? Let the world grab a shovel and go deeper!

Well, the Mariners got Perfect Gamed today.  I think this may be the first of many perfect games and no-hitters inflicted upon them this season.  Why?  Their offense sucks.  It sucks so bad it sucks at sucking.  They are a pathetic team of losers who can't hit worth a darn.  I hope they get sold to New Orleans and move there, I'm sick of seeing such a pathetic team.  They will lose every game I will see of them this year, by scores of 17-0, 24-0, 27-0 and 15-0, and at least one will be a perfect game.  Ichiro will be traded to the Yankees or Nationals for Pitching Prospects, because Jack Zdurencik, the biggest moron in baseball, believes pitching solves all woes.  The Nationals will go to the World Series, making the Mariners the pathetic losers who will be last to the World Series by default, IF they EVER get there.  I hope Bud Selig contracts them out of existence.  I am seriously considering giving up my tickets, because I'm so sick of being exposed to the lamest team in the history of baseball.  Also, Miley will convert to Buddhism, condemning her to the pits of the idol worshippers in hell when she dies.  Life f&*#ing sucks right now.

Library, Bus, Wish things were simple

Hey all.  I haven't done anything to Wikipedia since the last post, but I'm still depressed and angry.  It's namely because this town has people who like to sit on the bus and discuss science at depth, believing man should know everything about the universe.  That made my journey to work kind of infuriating.  There's also a guy on another bus who reads a book called "Bloodlines of the Illuminati" with a magnifying glass, obviously looking for "information about the cult that runs the world."  But on top of all that, the Library has me shelf-reading.  Which wouldn't be so bad if not for where I've been working in the Dewey Decimal System.  First, I saw books about the occult.  Then, came books by atheists.  Finally, yesterday, I entered the Christian section, unfortunately, there are only two kinds of books there.  There's the "you're not doing enough, you need to separate yourself from society and if you think gay rights should exist, you're being corrupted by the devil."  These outnumber the other kind, which I love.  These books are "we need to reclaim the spirit of love, compassion and do justice.  We don't know why that stuff about gays was written in Leviticus, but that book also mentions that we should kill adulterers and kids who talk back to their parents, neither of whom are being denied rights right now."  However, the real difficulty was a book entitled "23 minutes in Hell," which detailed a man who apparently was only guilty of not acknowledging God, spent 23 minutes in Hell one night.  This worked up my anxiety, especially about my friends and favorite rock stars.  The friends I worry most about are the lesbians who don't like my religion because they only see the "deny them rights or all hell will break loose" right-wing people.  But I also get worried about Miley Cyrus, Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd to a degree, Aerosmith, Joan Jett, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones.  All these people have made great music, yet they all have some checkeredness to them.
Miley: swears (says the "f-word" a lot), posts quotes from atheists on Twitter, her brother Braison has become an atheist who loves the anti-religious attitudes of George Carlin and Penn and Teller, hangs out with Kelly Osbourne, daughter of Ozzy Osbourne, who covered "Working Class Hero" by John Lennon (which refers to Religion as "dope") and "Sympathy for the devil" by The Rolling Stones.
Led Zeppelin: Guitarist Jimmy Page had a significant interest in the occult, enough to purchase Aleister Crowley's house and engrave his statement "Do what thou wilt" onto some records.  Also pursued a Tarot Card being, the Hermit, in his dream sequence in "The Song Remains the Same" movie.  On the positive side of the band, they played "In My Time of Dying" and Robert Plant later sang "Satan, your kingdom must come down."
Lynyrd Skynyrd: swore a lot, Allen Collins (guitarist who played the solo in "Free Bird") questioned religion after lead singer Ronnie Van Zant died, ultimately culminating in drug abuse, which led to a crippling car crash, which led to his death by pneumonia.
Aerosmith: swears a lot, sometimes talks about promiscuity.
Joan Jett: swears a lot, sometimes acts promiscuous on stage, has stated rock and roll is her religion.
The Beatles: Lennon had a troubled relationship with religion, seeing mostly idol worship and ultimately not believing in anything, really, though had some spirituality about him.  Harrison was a devout Hindu, often singing his praises to Krishna.
The Rolling Stones: see above, had kind of a flippant attitude to life, Mick Jagger is the most promiscuous lead singer I've ever seen.
I just worry they get to Heaven, Hell is a nasty place, and apparently "whoever is not against us is for us" isn't enough.  I'm also trying to see Iron Maiden in Auburn in July and Aerosmith in Tacoma in August, but haven't got any responses from the emails I sent on Facebook.  Hope brighter days are ahead, and that the Mariners will do well against the Angels, Dodgers, Giants and Blue Jays when I see them this year.

My favorite playlist

Well, I vandalized Wikipedia again, thankfully, they undid what I did, which was the same as before.  I feel regrets for getting out of control regarding a nineteen-year-old's spirituality, but you know what they say, "without faith, it is impossible to please God," and"no one comes to the Father except through Jesus."  But let's not dwell on that.  I'm listening to my favorite playlist right now, a compilation of most songs Billy Ray Cyrus has covered live.  Here are its contents so you can make it yourself!
