"Dogma demands authority, rather than intelligent thought, as the source of opinion; it requires persecution of heretics and hostility to unbelievers; it asks of its disciples that they should inhibit natural kindliness in favor of systematic hatred. Since argument is not recognized as a means of arriving at truth, adherents of rival dogmas have no method except war by means of which to reach a decision. And war, in our scientific age, means, sooner or later, universal death."
— Bertrand Russell (via philphys)
"Yes — Obama’s contradicting ‘The Jesus.’ (Picks up a copy of the Bible.) And I, right now, would like to read to you what ‘The Jesus’ said about homosexuality. (Beat.) I’d like to, but he never said anything about it."
— STEPHEN COLBERT, on a Christian pastor’s claim that by supporting marriage equality, President Obama is “contradict(ing) the Jesus that he says he follows,” on The Colbert Report (via inothernews)

OBAMA FLIP FLOPS, DECLARES WAR ON MARRIAGE
So, logically, Obama Flip-Flops and Obama wearing Flip-Flops.
Obama flip-flops!
Ladies and gents,
I just don’t know. I am feeling so up and down about graduation. Or, rather, what comes next. I’m glad about Vandy, but I will never see any of my friends ever again. Like, we are real adults now and everyone is living together, except for me who is so far away and will never have money to visit.
Also, I am just developing more and more complexes about relationships. Like, I don’t understand how people are so terrible and cruel and have no human emotions.
Senior Week is a mess. Everyone acts like they are dying and are professing love and telling secrets and getting so drunk and crying and ugh….I don’t know if I can handle it. The riverboat was fun, though. The band played This Is How We Do It.
Sorry…this post is nothing. I just don’t know how to feel about anything right now.
