Born Again

Well since I'm sitting here on Power Outage Watch, ready to wake up and pack up the family to relocate to a location with electrically-independent heating sources, instead of getting the sleep I'd like to be getting (even though, in all honesty, I could probably chance it) and also not exactly in the mood to try working on one of these literature-related projects (sleepy thinkmeat = not goodly wordings) I thought I could at least take a shot at the first post of the new I, Krotukk.

Adam peered around the gymnasium at all the parents and friends collected in one place to watch the basketball game at the local high school. On the court, kids were running around playing with their balls. Deciding to create a little havoc among his classmates, Adam stood up and walked out onto the court. He pulled a small, wrapped package out of his pocket and held it up toward them, his interference and the curious item drawing their full attention. With his left hand, he reached toward the item and quickly tore the wrapping from it.

Positively Negative (Archive)

In contrast to many of the people I know and call friends, I am an undeniably negative person; Not because I choose nor strive to be, merely because the negative sides of situations and circumstances stand out more prominently to me than the positive. As such, I receive a good deal of criticism and expressions of discontent from a good number of people whom, when revealed to or confronted with my views on a subject, treat me as if I have no right to hold such opinions, as if I am wrong simply because the way I am does not fit their ideals for how a person should be. This extends anywhere from my disregard for the safety of stupid people to conflict with my political or religious views.

Initial Fact or Opinion? Post

This is not intended to be a sequel to my initial FoP? post. Instead, this is a response to a question posed on Facebook somewhat relevant to said first post. There are three involved parties in this discussion. Some comments and statements referenced which are not included in that post were made by the third party. That is why there are comments and quotes here that do not come directly from the first FoP?.

Introduction
Before you begin reading this, I ask only one thing: Read the entirety of this article as it is. Do not get to a point that may offend you or that you may not agree with and instantly begin formulating arguments. Read from beginning to end and take in everything I'm saying here.

2. I believe in evolution.
3. I claim no affiliation with any political party.
4. I do not support any form of government, not even my own.
5. I do not believe in corporate America.
6. I have little to no faith in humanity as a whole.
7. I am a heavy believer in one's complete right to one's own opinions and beliefs.
8. I crave the betterment of humanity.
9. I support our troops, regardless of a lack of faith in this country.
10. I believe in human rights.
11. I believe in the corruption of religion.
12. I do not believe in censorship.
13. I do not believe in celebrity glamour.

This post contains much of my attitude on these topics and many justifications for said views. If you can't accept a person's right to hold and express his opinions, then navigate away from this page and push it out of the confines of your bubble of stubborn ignorance.
