“To believe without reason, is to live without purpose.”
- Xenocrates
I’ve always wondered why Christianity has so many different sects and denominations. Every congregation that I visit has a new spin on the same system of belief. It’s like experiencing a culture shock at each congregation I visit. There are so many philosophical differences, that people literally grow up blindly subscribing to one ideology that they think is right as opposed to another - which they often think is unchristian. Christianity is so divided, that it’s division is more conspicuous than its unity. But there’s a lot more wrong with the whole system other than just that. Follow me for a moment while I discuss some of the more disturbing things about this the most popular faith (or con?) on earth.
“Men and women can only be friends once there is absolutely no sexual attraction between them.”
- Xenocrates
Why is it that when it comes to friendships with men, that women can’t understand that there is and always will be sexual intent in a man’s relations with her? It’s not even something that we premeditatively desire. It’s just there - like a prick in the back of our minds, slowly driving us mad. Even if the relationship is purely professional and they never see each other again until the next seminar or meeting, EVERY man thinks about every woman he sees that is not directly related to him as a sexual object before he sees her as anything else - even if that woman is his boss. Men are hardwired to sexually objectify women. We do it every single time we see an even moderately attractive woman. The process is so automatic and happens so fast, that most men aren’t even consciously aware of it when it happens. If you’re a man reading this, think of every woman in your office that is even remotely attractive. I’m sure there’s at least one. Now imagine if you weren’t married or otherwise engaged. Do you realise where you thoughts went just for a second there? Yeah. You know what I’m talking about.
