Nu-uh! Am not!

In reaction to a recent comment that I received I feel as though there are some misconceptions of me that I should clear up. Do not take this in any way to mean that I do not want comments, to the contrary I love them and would like to receive many more, I am simply disheartened when I am accused of being someone that I am not, and in this case truly strive against.

1.This site is not by any means solely an Anti-American government blog. I thought this was quite clear even by a quick scan of my titles but apparently not. Do not try to tie everything I write into being against the american government, I try to critique every part of human interaction including government, society, beliefs, religion, faith,education, democracy, philosophy....

2.A formalized mass religion is not a belief. At least from the perspective that I am looking at. Getting mad at me because I attacked “your beliefs” is silly. If they were “your beliefs” I would try my hardest to leave you personally alone. They are not your beliefs you are borrowing them from the authors of the bible, koran, and other holy books. I will put out my opinion on a lot of things, and if I think you are wrong I will tell you that. However as long as you have a personal belief and you are not following faith blindly I will at least respect you. I only lack respect for those who follow the heard blindly.

3.My purpose in writing is not not to be a jackass. I realize I come off negatively very often. I also however promote the ideas that I feel are right. I do this because I think it is important pool ideas to come up with answers. It's a concept of a collective individual who absorbs and radiates ideas and personality which anyone who has read Walt Whitman's poems will recognize. One of these days I will write a little something about it.

4.I'm not “liberal” or “leftist.” And I am definitely not a democrat. I strive to be as close to a humanitarian as I can, and attempt to do and promote things that are best for people. Sometimes I'm wrong, I try to admit those times. Please though, help me realize when I am. But on the flip side don't be afraid to be enlightened or corrected yourself.

5.I am not stupid. My mom said so.

You are definetly correct, no one should ever degrade somebody personally about something that should be kept entirely proffesional, and for that i apologize. And another thing I would like to clear up is I never said it was "my belief". I got offended as a whole because it seemed as if you were personally attacking and mocking something that many people follow because they whole-heartedly believe that way, not becuase they are blindly naive. I am definetly not afraid to be enlightened myself. I tend to disagree with you in many ways yet I avidly read your blog just to better understand things as a whole, and sometimes you have altered my perspective. Again I apologize, but this one time I couldnt keep my mouth shut while reading, and thought something had to be said. Thank you for making yourself more clear.

Glad i could smooth things over a bit. The problem with aggression is that it is so easy to turn someone off from your work. Unfortunately I'm guilty of doing it that way often. As I said before happy reading, and I would love to read anything you have, anything that you've read that you like and so on. Good day. TCR
P.S I didn't mean to imply that you were "blindly naive" if I did I'm sorry.
