Funny and artistical political writings.
And a link to one of my columns elsewhere
Since I feel like society is dangerously losing its secularisation, I feel it's important to collect some of my quotes of the past years.
They are not licensed but I'd love to be mentioned as the source if you do intend to use any of these:
"I don't believe there is no god, I know there is no god."
"Religion was the first science but it has now been completely disproven."
"As much as I despise the christian faith, I don't despise christian people. My ethics are godless, yet very kind."
"Religion is especially dangerous when it tries to dominate our smallest sets of behaviours."
"Gender is dynamic throughout any individuals' life, because I feel our genders change depending on who we are having a relationship with. Nothing in life is static, including our own selves."
"The penis is not a male body part."
"I find the equatic ape theory quite plausible, especially since it seems to prove science has had a white-male dominated viewpoint for far too long."
"People say our genepool is becoming spoiled because humans that become ill don't die through natural selection anymore. I say: in this society we don't need to have healthy bodies anymore, our brain is our most important asset."
"Internet does not make us stupid, it enables me to watch a documentary on my TV with my left eye and immediately google every desired piece of background information on my iPhone with my right eye."
"Capitalism is just an economic form of fascist darwinism."
"I do believe there is such a thing as a sexual 'tendancy', because sexual 'preference' sounds too much as if you can make a man stop being gay - and even though I would love it if 100% of the population is really bisexual, from my observations I know this isn't so - apart from that: to say that everyone is bisexual actually insults the bisexuals, because it's simply another lousy way people made up in order to not having to necassarily talk about bisexuality and quickly wave it away as some form of neutral or default and uninteresting sexuality."
"Religion is the worst way to fill up the holes science hasn't been able to cover with sand yet."
"I used to call myself an agnosticus, not just because I thought we cannot know anything, but much more because I think that we, with our limited physical abilities, are so very much part of the system, that this universe is, that we will never be able to step out of it, take a distance from it and observe it unbiased and absolute, in other words: an eye cannot look at itself."
"I am now a full-blown atheist."
"I am never bored. Everything is fascinating"
"My personal nonconformity was always motivated by the desire of finding myself, it was never provocation, I'm far too sissy for that."
"The environment, this planets' endless beauties and all animals should be protected, simply because we should - I don't feel for playing the global warming card. We should just simply stop wasting - that's not so hard to understand is it? I don't need to be made scared of global warming. I just simply care.
"I hope one day the Giant Spagghetti Monster will come down to earth and reveal Itself as the one true and only god. He will probably say "Oh and by the way: I built the pyramids, because you surely did not expect the Africans could've done this themselves?""
"For me personally I feel I have no gender, or an infinite number of genders I guess. It just doesn't make sense for me, because I never feel static. But looking at other people, for example transwomen who say "I am a woman" - i look at them and experience their gender and yes: you would have to be blind not to see the 100% woman they really are."
"I don't believe in ghosts. They could only exist as just some kind of quantum mechanic anomaly that will pretty soon be explained through the superstring theory."
"I dislike children and think new ones shouldn't be produced within the next 20 years - this would solve a lot of problems."
"People who say children are 'pure' should be forced to work as anti-bullying agents on playgrounds and school lavatories, for a reality check."
"We should stop to compare wrong policies with fascism, because bringing Hitler into it makes everyone a victim of the Godwin rule. I think it's far more sensible to simply compare to religion that turns rigid beliefs into rigid rules."
"The most fantastic thing we as humans have been able to develop is speech, altough actually it sometimes is a bit of a shame we define and label things with only one word because there's potential it's making things too static - like with gender. We haven't invented enough words for all the genders there are yet."
"I have been building up my moral conscience and ethics purely through my life's experiences and I wish one day everyone on this planet will be blessed with that privilage, instead of being forced into it."
"Curiosity keeps you young and forever hungry for life."
"Every day I find it unbelievable and miraculous I came into existance. Everything on this planet is quite the miracle, I don't need a god to see that. A god would actually degrade the value of this planet, because what's so good about this earth if it's just some devine creation and hasn't done anything by itself?"
"There is no such thing as an 'oversexed' society today, it's just 'wrongly sexed' with a lack of diversity and a dominant standard in beauty that made it quite hard for me to find my own sexual niche."
"As an atheist I don't see anything wrong with the minor superstition I have; I think it's just some kind of evolutional residu of thousands of years of religious delusion, and I think I have some kind of genetic tendency to spirituality. It's a bit like having a sore toe: it's there but it's nothing much."
"Religion is the lamest excuse ever."
"If I am really such a pervert, why doesn't god punish me NOW, instead of waiting for me to be dead and defenseless?"
"I agree a lot with Dawkins but I am much softer. He's Darwin's Rottweiler, I'm Darwin's pet mouse."
"We think monkeys look cute but I wonder how they perceive us? Aren't we ugly to them? And don't we look rediculously naked with gigantic hairless faces and silly little babyteeth?"
"Altruism can be explained through science and evolution, but why do humans like other species so much? I really love animals, they endear me more than humans, why is that?"
"The life of an earthworm is just as valuable as the life of a human. They are both the result of millions of yars of evolution and they come from a very long line of chance survivors. In fact you could say a rock is equally important as a human. Because we both came from the big bang. However: I tend to be nicer to my pet mice than I am to most rocks."
"When i was a geology student and dug up my very first fossil i realised that this little gracious shell had not seen sunlight for twohundredfifty million years and that i was the first living creature to set eyes on it since then, i was hit with the meaning of time, it hit me as something deeply wonderful, spiritual, poetic - sadly though none of my fellow students seemed to be in the same wonder _and_ the majority of them was religious, but were aparantly less spiritual then me."
"All royalty should be stripped from their benefits and possessions, except for drag queens and drag kings, they can stay - since they are the only kings and queens who actually attained their royalty themselves, and not by right of birth."
"The biggest danger in this world doesn't come from the extremists but from the moderates. They can make critical mass and they genuinely don't care."
"The killing of transgender people shows that a 'man' in a dress apparantly is felt to be a bigger threat than war and poverty."
"Most people who believe in creationism are not debaters, nor are they religious scholars, debating with them is impossible. They're just ordinary people who really are not tackling Life's big questions. This also means that when you go into discussions with believers, you'll get stuck in first principles. This offers no way to go deeper, and expand your mind. Debating with a theist won't teach you anything new."
"We should no longer set the birth of a random messias as the year zero. I think we should start our count at a really important event in human history. Preferably not the birth of one individual, but for example start at zero in the year when 'The Origin Of Species' was first published."
"The Observer Effect, a fundamental premise of quantum theory, raises a question for me: I'd like to set the hypotheses that atoms in living beings might differ from the same elements in anorganic materials. Id est: a carbon molecule in a dog's tail might be different from a carbon atom in a pencil. Maybe Life-force itself is the conscious observer?"
"Humans see structures in chaos. I think that is what makes it possible for us to interpret a drawing of a house as a representation of a house. Other lifeforms may not be able to do this. So this might mean the Voyager ship, with its golden record of images, may not be understood by alien lifeforms at all. And the audio recording may be completely random white noise to them."
"I have had out-of-body and other transcendant experiences, but it didn't make me stop being an atheist. "
"There are no sane people in foxholes."
"If God is all powerful, he certainly hasn't been very powerful in convincing me of his existance."
"An emotion is not an opinion."
"I support l'art pour l'art, because it is possible to have quality in any profession. But I also think artists must realise the public deserves to be exposed to that same quality. Don't think the masses should be kept stupid, just because they might not understand everything immediately."
"Art and science should be united again."
"Penisenvy is a myth, and made up by someone who doesn't understand women are NOT the opposite of man."
"'Freedom of speech' is not the equivalent of 'freedom to insult.'"
"I doubt, therefor I am"
"Jesus isn't coming, someone call in a fluffer."
"It's mostly minorities that are treated bad by the majority. As far as I know the majority of people are religious, and they claim atheists, gays and transgenders are immoral and a threat to the world. It's surprising because: how can a minority make the majority so insecure?"
"Imagination is the easiest form of creativity and it's equally precious."
"The only thing that distinguishes humans from animals is a taste for liquorice."
"Gender is relative."
"We've passed the year 2000, so where is my own personal spaceship...?"
"I wonder: why do humans experience snow landscapes as beautiful? They're no advantage biologically speaking, and actually quite cold and bad for our fat reserves. Did evolution made us fancy monochromatic coloring?"
"I wish I had augmented reality built in in my head, so I could read everyones' specs before talking to them..."
"My theory is that computers feed on people's time."
