Fundamental Evil?

Rant time:

So this morning I was watching Hannity and Colmes or whatever its called, and this guy was on there talking about how Al Queda was enlisting 15 year olds, and this is a quote from memory:

"[Al Queda] is fundamentally evil, they twist ancient scriptures to support their interpretations"

Okay, I have many points. The first is just about how they are making a big deal over 15 year olds supporting terrorism and being active, yet they do not say anything about how US army representatives are in highschools every day recruiting. I am 15, and it insults me that the show made it seem like people my age are being tricked. We can think for ourselves, and make conscious decisions. Just because we are legally children doesnt mean we do not have opinions on global matters.
Next: the 'twisting of ancient scriptures to support their interpretations'. Essentially that is all modern religion is, manipulating the words of a holy text to support your claims. Think of all the divisions of Christianity; they exist because of different interpretations. The word 'twisted' is simply thrown in to make it seem more sinister, and not the same exact thing as religion everywhere else.

Another point: "Fundamentally evil". What the hell is fundamental evil? Google defines fundamentally as "basically: at bottom or by one's (or its) very nature" and evil as "morally bad or wrong". So the nature of Al Queda is morally wrong? I really do beg to differ. They have different morals from us, and all they are doing is following what they believe their God wants. Many religious people in the states go to church on Sunday because that is what they believe God wants, or volunteer at hospitals and homes for the disabled because they were taught it is the 'right' thing. And I am not saying that helping others is wrong, or trying to justify the terrorists perspective. I'm just trying to get you to view it through their eyes.

I'm not sorry I'm so upset, but I am sorry that your tv show makes such generalizations and misconceptions. Dont condemn something in the Middle East that is justified here. Hopefully someone will actually read this instead of sending me a generic 'thank you for your feedback' email. If you do read it, thanks. If you dont... well... lets just say I'll be thinking alot of things that wouldn't be professional to include in this letter.

Sincerly,
Caitlin Reddington Davis









So Im basically sending that as an email to the site. Hahaha kiss my ass suckers!!! And a random harry potter reference:

Musings

Um yea. I love us. I was reading Ronnie Day's livejournal, and its so thoughtful, unlike mine. I write in my little notebook which noone ever sees, if I do write down my thoughts. I wish I could just transcribe what I think to paper.
Vampires are quite awesome. I dont think I'd mind letting blood to one if they didnt kill me. Apparently it can be quite pleasurable if the vampire so choses. And who doesnt want those gorgeous lips on their flesh?

Kimmie gave me a frilly bra. I love it, its black and pink. I wore a halter on the last day of school, and the lace showed, and I felt very sexy. Until Grace yelled that I was a slut.
I like my song lyrics and poetry. Maybe I should post some sometime. I like writing here. Its like I can say what I want, and if someone says I didnt tell them, I can say they just didnt look.

Exams

Suck. On Lauren's away message it said this:

Today we salute you, stressed out high school student during exam week. As you sit in your lonely cubical in the library, doped up on Starbucks & aderol, you think to yourself, am I ever going to need to know this stuff in life? The distractions are tempting and you have suddenly diagnosed yourself with ADD along with advanced delusionary schizophrenia with involuntary narcissistic rage. I'm sure by now you know exactly what everyone is doing because you have checked your buddy list 800 times. Summer is just days away, and your Prozac prescription will be in tomorrow. So crack open an ice cold bud light after that last exam, because for most of us, our summer will be spent in rehab.

I do believe it summarizes my life perfectly. So... I should be working on my section of the english study guide... but i wont.... instead ill post my exam schedule :)

June 14th - Art History
June 15th - Biology and Gym
June 16th - MY BIRTHDAY!!! :)
June 17th - Fathers Day
June 18th - Spanish and Language Arts
June 19th - History and Geometry

So thats my freshman exam schedule... its kinda sad, cuz this was an awesome year of my life. I met so many new people, have so many more amazing friends, and am just... different. I'm not that naive 8th grade girl. I've been kissed (and more), become intensely spiritual, and relaxed around people. Not to mention all of the new inside jokes we have :)

Now I am going to study for a bio test tomorrow and freak about a spanish project due tuesday... adios!!!!

(i need starbucks)

Dorkettes

Hm... I shall bullet

So... hm... im bored. I feel really really pretty and thing and goodlooking and im just wonder why i dont have a boyfriend. Honestly... Oh, so i friended this guy on myspace because he had a metaphorical about me. Seriously, its all illusions and blah :) Mom rushed me at the library, and I got mad because i do not like to be rushed when i am looking at books. But we HAD to go because the world would explode and turn into a great ball of cosmic dust if my grandparents got to the house before us, even tho dad and kenneth were home. Thank God that crisis was averted.

I have a bathing suit and its pretty and a bit skimpy on top according to my dad but i dont care cuz grandpa says its okay :D I wanna put a picture of it up soon, maybe will tomorrow. Dorkettes reunion was pretty awesome, got to chill with Cara and Becki who I NEVER see. Like, ever. And Mr.Hein read us some amazing slam poetry by Taylor Mali :)

So thats it... <3>

Columbine


Wow... the shootings at VT were the worst in US history... so i started looking up Columbine, and then the diagnosed psycopath Eric. I've been reading his journals, and I can see where he comes from. He definately had a mental condition, as his entries can be quite horrible at times, but I can still understand what he means. I agree with some of his "I LOVE" and "I HATE" statements, not all, but some. He actually seems like he would have been a pretty normal kid, with somewhat of a liking for guns and firearms (and what guy doesn?) but just overly morbid like me. Actually, its a bit odd the similarities between me and him, but no worries. I'm not going on a killing spree or anything. Maybe I should be a psycharitrist, which I totally spelt wrong. I like understanding people. Hm... I wish I could meet this guy. I want to see if his horrible thoughts were evident at first impression, and what I'd think looking at him. Life is odd, comparing me to this psychopath, but I can see so many differences too. Hes alot more keen to act on his thoughts for one. I should be doing Tempest comparisons now, but... okay fine. I will. Haha that made me think of GLC which made me think of something I need to tell Kate tonight at MACK. Adios Papayas


~Davis, as Vicky calls me :)
