Never-ending fascination 1
“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”
Nelson Mandela
18 July 1918 - 5 December 2013 (aged 95)
Easily one of my most favorite photos
“I remember
how seeing the shape of your mouth
that first time, I kept staring
until my blood turned to rain.Some things take root
”
in the brain and just don’t
let go.
"It’s a Spaghetti Monster pin."
“How would you describe the Spaghetti Monster?”
“It’s a semi-serious, semi-parody religion. If you substitute the word ‘Spaghetti Monster’ for the word God, it exposes religion to critical thinking. Because of the cultural reverence for the word ‘God,’ so much of religion flies under the radar of critical thinking. But if you think about it— the word ‘God’ is just a noise we make, just like ‘Spaghetti Monster’ is a noise. Both are placeholders for a concept, and neither is more valid than the other. The whole point of the Spaghetti Monster is not necessarily to say that God isn’t real, but to point out the flaws in our conceptualization of him.”
5:38 am : still alive but very hungry. Hopefully I will be free from the captivity of the studio any day now.
No words for how much I love this.
