Do I need God?
I find that most people who seek philosophy discover that they live in a miserable, meaningless world where effort and good deeds are pointless. In my opinion, I am a very spiritual person. I define spirituality as understanding that you are part of something bigger than yourself, realizing that your actions have consequences and that there is good, bad and in between. The topic I want to bring up is religion.
I’ve had many people in my life who try to show me their religion and convert me and in the of our conversations, they always tell me something along the lines of, “I see you are a good person and I cannot sway you. But I will pray for you that one day you will see the light.” I do not hate these people. I don’t like the pity they have for me, but I understand that they only have good intentions for me because they want to share something that is a blessing to them with me. How can I be upset with that?
Here’s what MY personal beliefs are concerning God. I would like you all to share your opinions with me. Feel free to criticize, scold, or commend me: It doesn’t matter. With me, I know I am a good person because I do things with positive intentions because they make me feel better. I do good deeds to help others because I feel that we are all connected and doing good for others and allowing them to do good for you is reflection. You can make the world a beautiful place by how you perceive it and how you want to be included in it and if there is any true God who is benevolent and good like how people preach, he won’t care if I don’t attend a weekly service in which I worship him. No true, meaningful God is going to be spiteful because you don’t believe in him. God loves love and I share my love with the universe I am grateful to be living in because I find so much joy and wonder in it that God will understand that I am not wasting his gift of life. I am making the most out of it in a way he would commend because I don’t need the promise of heaven to see the merit in good deeds.
Okay, those are my thoughts. This is how I live my life. Thank you for taking the time to hear what I have. I would love to hear from you too. Peace.

Ten Reasons Why You Should Never Accept a Diamond Ring from Anyone, Under Any Circumstances, Even If They Really Want to Give You One
1. You’ve Been Psychologically Conditioned To Want a Diamond
The diamond engagement ring is a 63-year-old invention of N.W.Ayer advertising agency. The De Beers diamond cartel contracted N.W.Ayer to create a demand for what are, essentially, useless hunks of rock.
2. Diamonds are Priced Well Above Their Value
The De Beers cartel has systematically held diamond prices at levels far greater than their abundance would generate under anything even remotely resembling perfect competition. All diamonds not already under its control are bought by the cartel, and then the De Beers cartel carefully managed world diamond supply in order to keep prices steadily high.
3. Diamonds Have No Resale or Investment Value
Any diamond that you buy or receive will indeed be yours forever: De Beers’ advertising deliberately brain-washed women not to sell; the steady price is a tool to prevent speculation in diamonds; and no dealer will buy a diamond from you. You can only sell it at a diamond purchasing center or a pawn shop where you will receive a tiny fraction of its original “value.”
4. Diamond Miners are Disproportionately Exposed to HIV/AIDS
Many diamond mining camps enforce all-male, no-family rules. Men contract HIV/AIDS from camp sex-workers, while women married to miners have no access to employment, no income outside of their husbands and no bargaining power for negotiating safe sex, and thus are at extremely high risk of contracting HIV.
5. Open-Pit Diamond Mines Pose Environmental Threats
Diamond mines are open pits where salts, heavy minerals, organisms, oil, and chemicals from mining equipment freely leach into ground-water, endangering people in nearby mining camps and villages, as well as downstream plants and animals.
6. Diamond Mine-Owners Violate Indigenous People’s Rights
Diamond mines in Australia, Canada, India and many countries in Africa are situated on lands traditionally associated with indigenous peoples. Many of these communities have been displaced, while others remain, often at great cost to their health, livelihoods and traditional cultures.
7. Slave Laborers Cut and Polish Diamonds
More than one-half of the world’s diamonds are processed in India where many of the cutters and polishers are bonded child laborers. Bonded children work to pay off the debts of their relatives, often unsuccessfully. When they reach adulthood their debt is passed on to their younger siblings or to their own children.
8. Conflict Diamonds Fund Civil Wars in Africa
There is no reliable way to insure that your diamond was not mined or stolen by government or rebel military forces in order to finance civil conflict. Conflict diamonds are traded either for guns or for cash to pay and feed soldiers.
9. Diamond Wars are Fought Using Child Warriors
Many diamond producing governments and rebel forces use children as soldiers, laborers in military camps, and sex slaves. Child soldiers are given drugs to overcome their fear and reluctance to participate in atrocities.
10. Small Arms Trade is Intimately Related to Diamond Smuggling
Illicit diamonds inflame the clandestine trade of small arms. There are 500 billion small arms in the world today which are used to kill 500,000 people annually, the vast majority of whom are non-combatants.If I was to get engaged I wouldn’t want a diamond, for all of these reasons and more.

Confirming what a lot of you suspected (in my ask box).
I didn’t get to say all of what I wanted, my mind is racing right now because I never thought this day would come and it’s hard to condense everything I’m thinking in a video. But, hey, maybe my arguments are valid now.
Why rape is rape is rape is rape.
No questions, please.
I think everyone is a student, a teacher, a doctor and an artist.Oh, and the name's Billy.
