My last post (Well, it was my first too, heh heh) was on June 18, and it's July second now. I figured I'd mention it in a new topic at the top of the page rather than way down at the original post ("I don't know what to beleive"). I wasn't able to read the responses untill now (I got the URL wrong and only just found a link that worked) And I'd like to say "Thanks" to those that replied to my post. (I didn't include my email addy this time, heh heh) And I'm just glad some appreciate my rants about less tangible aspects of human nature. I may not be an expert on the subject, but being a human, I think I can catch one quick. I've noticed a lot of my (how would one say this...) superficial depression has eased off with the onset of Summer Vacation. However, there is a deeper depression that remains, and it bothers me enough to wonder whether I should ask about seeing some sort of doctor for it. I did see a psychiatrist while I was still living in America. It was mainly for the bad times I was going through in school (which I still go through here in Ireland, but for very different reasons) but all she seemed to do was make me racall every bad thing that happened to me 'till I was shaking all over. Just admitting to others, even people who are only represented as pixels on my screen, is almost scaring me. Ack, I started this message trying to say thank-you to those that replied to a post made 15 days ago that's now been overshadowed by many other posts, and now... maybe I just can't stay on topic or something. The time is now almost 2:00am, I'd better get some sleep. Maybe since my open questioning of life was appreciated before, I'll let some out now. You don't have to read it if this message is getting too long. (sigh) We Humans have a very unique social structure which is the result of billions of social animals thrown together. Homosexuality and adult-youth relationships, however, are not limited to us humans. Most of you probably know that anyway, but it is a good point in the arguement for pro-gay (I suppose). Chimps and other social monkeys (very similar to humans) practice both homosexuality and adult-youth relationships. No one discriminates them for it. They'll say "I's just a part of their instincts/nature." So why is it that no one has a problem with gay animals, but when they see a gay person they discriminate? My guess is that fear drives them. From what I've heard people say in amazingly-homophobic Ireland, I would assume they hate gay people because they don't want to be the target of a gay sexual advance. If only there was a way to convince them otherwise. Well that wasn't really relevant to anything so I'll stop. I just have some kind of... inner need to express thoughts like this. I've tried saying things like this is word processing documents but it isn't the same and I usually end up deleting it for fear someone will find and read it. (using non-descript names is good but not fool-proof and I havent found a single encryption program for the Macintosh, and I havent figured out the Keychain thing in OS9) This post is getting too long. I havent mentioned God once (except for that referance o the lack of referance) and it's a Christian forum. This time I'll chack for replies. See yall! |
