theology, religion and the ways of the world




my video quest has taken me to some strange trains of thought. some of them seemed to desire self-derailment, but lacked the off road wheels to deal with the consequences of these actions. one thing that I've looked into recently is buddhism. it has the off road wheels, but prefers to just park somewhere really nice.
despite the deep meanings that could be dragged out of that first paragraph, I would prefer to think of it as a joke. religious madmen, conspiracy theorists, and so called free thinkers always seem to focus on problems. I'd like to see some type of intellectual belief system that just focuses on making good things happen and totally skips anything negative. buddhism is the only thing that I've found that even comes close to an organized system of thought direction that fill this criteria. during a recent google search, the exact words in the search field were "buddhist aa meeting" and google came up with some sites that matched those words including the buddhist 12 steps. these steps included the non-buddhist idea of some type of higher power. more research is required somewhere...
how about another answer to the world's questions? fuck religion, don't even try to understand how the world works, just try not to fuck it up!
