the evolution of thought

you need to read what shem has to say. his blog > www.blackboxentries.blogspot.com < has a very interesting video of a rising christian movement. this group is teaching children the traditional christian faith and then turning them into "god's army". they look like they are preparing for war. this group sends these kids to "bible camp" to teach them about their faith. these camps are also set up to counter camps in the middle east (that i haven't heard about until now) that are teaching kids how to fight. this group is also growing big enough that it pretty much already controls the majority of congress and the rest of the government.

i guess im not really afraid tho, eventhough im not a christian like this "army" will be. yeah, if they control the government, all non-christians will probly be persecuted. shit happens. yeah, they are going to be big. they are gonna grow. sure there might be a fight, and they are probly keep the current fight in the middle east going for a very long time, until they feel they are in control. but mother nature always evens itself out. something will surely rise up and take there place. it always happens, its already happen about half a million times throughout history. when they are gone, things will be different, not necessarily bad, just different. and i hope im there to see it.

i think history is interesting. to follow how things happened and to see how today is the way it is. it's also interesting to go the other way and try to follow and see where things will end up. you can also follow people's thoughts throughout history. historically people tend to turn to religion in times of war and tragedy and when they are just generally afraid or overwhelmed. it helped to explain the things that didn't make sense to them in their world. these people almost seem so afraid of the world today and what's happening that they've not only turned to religion to help but they've gone even farther and created an army to "protect" themselves and make them feel safer. just my thoughts...

(by the way, sorry if my thoughts seem scattered, blogger was having some problems and so i've had to write this three times before it worked)
