living with eyes closed?

when people have closed off their mind from everything besides what they believe in has to be one of the most anoyingest(is that a word? ha) thing i have ever encountered. here is an example. i am sitting here watching Darwin's secret notebook and my mother(i don't even like calling her that, so Trisha) is sitting here watching it too. everything is open-minded, based on what someone perceives what they think evolution is. Trisha asks and what century was he alive in? and i said 17 hundreds, 18 hundreds, i honestly don't know. and so she says oh. and the documentary says something about his thoughts and she says did anyone ever mention that maybe Darwin was retarded? and the rage that went throughout my body was intense. she only says this because she believes in one creator, god. well okay you can follow his teachings but i know of other people who are christian and have watched this same documentary and said it was a wonderful one. first of all, as i said, i don't even know when Darwin was alive but the peope who have made up the bible, they were alive way before Darwin so if i said maybe they were "retarded" that would be the same exact thing. second of all, she doesn't believe in evolution, which personally you do see it throughout time(I'm not trying to offend you if you do not believe, because that is your personal thoughts) animals have changes over the centuries. another, how can a group of people say that there is only one being that is created all of this and if you do not follow the rules of this one being you will suffer, but this one being loves you very much. and Trisha, being so very religious has not benefited at all from anything. she is 40 years old and living at her parents house sitting on the bed(my bed that she took over) eating food nd watching TV all day but when we say what are you going to do with your life? she responds, oh god had plans for me. okay that is good but you cannot expect something miracular to happen, you have to push yourself to succeed and god could in fact be your motivation but in reality, she is not a very good person, out of all honesty. another thing, there is a whole universe out there how can you be so subjective to one thing? there is so much to wonder and it is better is we wonder, it is fantastic to explore what is out there and there is no wrong doing in so. to me, the more you explore and seek to find new you are more educated and exercising your brain more then a person who is hard headed and unwilling to open their minds. you don't even have to agree or believe in when you seek new information, that's the beauty in it, it is all up to you!

i am sorry for the semi rant that was going in there but like i said i had a big ball of frustration when i heard that so i had to let some of it out. and i do not mean to offend anyone in any sort of way and it was just an expression of my mind that you do not have to agree to in anyway shape or form. but i do hope it did bring some sort of thought in your mind (:

i am done for the night and i hope you have a wonderful weekend/day/month/week/year/life/morning/night/afternoon/thought and all of the above!
