The Writer's Chronicles

Recently I have been asking myself, ‘Is Tumblr the best place for a blogger like me?’ or should I emigrate to another website, perhaps my own webpage? Who knows?

I would like to have my own website, infact it would be pretty cool, I just don’t want to lose some of the great features Tumblr offers me. We shall see where life takes me.

Keep posted to see which path I take…

Firstly I suppose I should address what Transvestism (or Transvestitism) is. Transvestism is the practice of wearing clothing traditionally associated with the opposite sex, (known as cross-dressing).

Then I should probably go on to address exactly what tolerance is, so we’re all reading from the same hymn sheet. Not that I’m trying to teach you how to suck an egg, just making sure we are all on the right lines, as there can often be several definitions attributed to one word.

Tolerance is having a permissive attitude toward those whose opinions, practices, race, religion, nationality, etcetera; differ from one’s own; and being freedom from bigotry. Simple conjectures I know. I’m not saying you should be deprived of your own opinions here, I am simply endorsing a more submissive stance on those opinions, known as being open minded, so much so in fact that you’re in risk of your brain falling out, metaphorically speaking.

Transvestites not only have to deal with the feeling of being born in the wrong body, void of a sense of belonging to one’s self, but also have to endure a gruelling twelve month slog living as a member of the opposite sex, picture it, an ex-man now living (dressing) as a woman needs the toilet, they (with their male genitalia) have to make a decision on which toilet to use, using either would cause distress, men presumably don’t like the idea of a woman in the gents, and vice-versa.

Not only this they have put up with an endless storm of comments from the public, as well as the emotional battle that they are going through. The same is to be said for anyone who is going through any emotional changes including those questioning their sexual orientation.

Adopting a more tolerant attitude can not only help to foster integration but will also aid them through their transition from one gender to another, aiding their emotion struggle in their life, after all they just as much as everyone else are human beings, pure and simple. Futhermore discrimination is illegal, and can result in fines as well as imprisonment, in serious cases. Equality and anti-discrimmination are a big part of policing agendas these days, so it is best to comply not only for the benefit of yourself and the community but for the individual actually dealing with this condition (Transvestism is now considered an illness).

Nothing is as beautiful as reality.

(Inspiration came from BBC Three Documentary; ‘My Dad is Woman’).

When one looks back at his own work one notices a certain trend. Mine happens to be ranting, usually about relgion. Whilst I, as much as the next person, enjoy ranting I do have a much calmful praiseful side to myself, for the past two years my rather temperate nature has completely switched over into the offensive ethusiast. I don’t know if that’s because I’m just realising how many stupid people there are in the world. When I say stupid people I don’t mean those who have an IQ below my own, I mean those people that belive things for which there is no evidence, belive absolute absurdities and try to bring the rest of the human race down with them.

When I enrolled on to the Tumblr world some of you may re-call me saying that I won’t talk about myself as I find in un-interesting. Well this shall probably be one of many exceptions.

I was not always one to triumphantly march towards one side of an argument, I used to measure up the pros and cons of either side and then compare the two to find the outright winner, perhaps this is why I am now so strident, because I have already formulated my opinions so vivedly. Who knows.

Also I foind out very recently - yesterday infact - That I had been nominated to recieve Welch Baccalaureate Student of the Year 2012 Award. Whilst I am more than greatful for the award I am unsure as to how I have earnt it. Not saying that I think I don’t deserve it, I just belive the work I put into college is the amount everyone should be putting in. In hindsight though I do recall being rather busy most of the time with college commitments, along with the workload its self.

I do hope this tale of my rather dull life hasn’t filled you all with the desire to un-follow my page. Thrice as interesting topics are to be covered in the near future!

Obviously I know that our society is built on a hierarchy of positions, unfathomably complex. But similarly I know that we live in a liberal democracy, which if you didn’t know means that they granting all adult citizens the right to vote regardless of race, gender or property ownership. Which furthermore means that we live in a free state, this means I get some human rights, in fact, Europe has a commission on them, there are about 18 or so.

There are two I wish to talk about in particular, articles Article 9 and 10. The former mentioned article, 9; provides a right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion. This includes the freedom to change a religion or belief, and to manifest a religion or belief in worship, teaching, practice and observance, subject to certain restrictions that are “in accordance with law” and “necessary in a democratic society”. The latter mentioned, Article 10; provides the right to freedom of expression, subject to certain restrictions that are “in accordance with law” and “necessary in a democratic society”. This right includes the freedom to hold opinions, and to receive and impart information and ideas, but allows restrictions for:

• interests of national security
• territorial integrity or public safety
• prevention of disorder or crime
• protection of health or morals
• protection of the reputation or the rights of others
• preventing the disclosure of information received in confidence
• maintaining the authority and impartiality of the judiciary

Last time I checked confronting a tutor, a headmaster, who-ever, asking them sceptically a question does not contradict any of these facets into which the rights would be considered void.

This is the reason for this blog, if we cannot ask sceptical questions of those in authority then we are helpless. I was denied this privilege, mainly relating to the second article mentioned, that would be ten, but it was my belief that I was correct hence the relation to 9, furthermore article 10 says that I have the freedom to express these beliefs as long as it is not in an unlawful manner, whilst my questions were not in an un-lawful manner, I personally think this authoritarian, benevolent leader could not bare being wrong and so removed my privilege to express my views.  

This person went on to ask me for an apology, to which I refused, as I have every right, to question, confront even those in authority, hell I can chose the people that run my country I can certainly tell this insignificant, apparent ‘leader’ what I believe, my views etcetera.

Being denied this privilege left me outraged and upset, I have one word of advice for all you people out there who have been oppressed by ‘the man’; fight for your rights, you have the right to express what you believe, your tutors, professors, parents etcetera, all those people in positions of power, generally abuse it and they are all just carbon based life-forms like yourself, they are no different, other than they probably have some higher qualifications which literally mean nothing.

“The Catholic Church teaches that there must be a God because nothing can happen anywhere or in the universe for that matter, unless a highly intelligent Beings causes it to happen.  Even when creation is looked at purely from a scientific standpoint, even an atheist will get to a point where they must ask who started it all.  There must be some Being who always was and who made everything else. That Being is God.”

[Please note that the above information is as it is written on - http://fullycatholic.com - I have not tampered with it in anyway].

Now let’s look at why there must be a god:

Notice the contradiction here (Rephrased for ease of reading): Nothing can happen anywhere, or in the universe, unless highly intelligent beings cause it to happen.

“Even an Atheist will get to a point where they must ask who started it all”.

I don’t think any self-respecting Atheist would ask such a question, they might ask what started it all, to which we have a very good answer, with a spectrum of information and facts about, in an array of mediums, but never would we ask whom.

Granted the Big Bang Theory doesn’t answer all of the questions out there, such as what started the Big Bang? To which Science does not know the answer, yet. This isn’t to say; that because we do not know, God must have done it, that’s Iron Age reasoning, we are much more advanced now, both intellectually and technologically.

Back then almost everything was covered by God. Now however, with advances in Science, God is taking a back seat and Science dominates. Sure there is reason to believe that the universal constants are set so definitely by a creator that if they were turned even a fraction of a nanometre, the universe would cease to exist. Equally however, there is reason to believe, that there is an invisible pink pony hidden inside the sun, that causes it to burn so brightly (Yeah, right!) Science believes these constants are set due to probability and are set to these specific digits because if there were any different we wouldn’t exist, along with the rest of the universe. That isn’t to say that they’re set so that we exist; we exist because they’re set so finitely. Difficult to grasp I know but it makes sense.

Considering that we live in a membrane inside the brain of a vast number of alternate realities, one comes to assume that each reality has its own set of constants, either allowing the existence of life, or prohibiting life due to the inhospitable conditions created.

To every mystery ever found in the universe, there has been a logical, mostly complex answer granted, but an answer nonetheless.

Science can open your eyes, and you don’t have to be a massive super genius like Dr Sheldon Cooper to understand it, all you need is to understand the story and the meaning behind all those fascinating equations, and you’re there.

“There must be some Being who always was and who made everything else. That Being is God”.

Earlier the site said beings, that’s a plural if you didn’t know, meaning there was more than one, simple concept right? This might just be a typo - but considering that all three Abrahamic Faiths are the result of a polytheistic (I think it was Babylonian, but don’t hold me to it) religion. If you read how these ancient religions evolved (A bit of an insult to the word) Yahweh, the God of War, is the common ‘God’ that the three Abrahamic Faiths (Christians, Jews and Muslims) worship today, though his name is somewhat different for each.

Once you understand this, you realise that the Bible makes sense, finally that convoluted, contradicting tripe makes a bit more sense, not complete sense however, it is still completely illogical.

I am not saying that there are several Gods; I’m just saying that this would hold a much more favourable suggestion to monotheism. Religion is one of the most, long winded myths in the history of the human race, and the fact that today, in the height of human aptitude, don’t notice fallacies of religion, its shortcomings in regards to facts, information and proof. There are no good reasons for believing in God; however there are good reasons for declaring a belief in God.

If you can think of anything think that would contradict this proficiently feel, free to get in touch.
