I actually agree to what Goat says.
I can't waste time being afraid.
For some reason, during the fear of Pepeng going about where everyone rushed home and bought up supplies the night before it supposedly would have struck Manila, I was out drinking with friends. Most of that reason being that I can't stand just running around because fear got the better of me.
As for religious views on things. Well, with my many years in Christian schools I've only gained more and more questions about how they go about things. I just find it utterly ridiculous that the theological approach would jump in and out of any logical basis so long as it was convenient. If it didn't seem to make sense, they pretty much take the "God works in mysterious ways..." argument. Personally I believe that's bull. If there is an omnipotent being out there who just watches all the time (makes me wonder if he ever gets bored), I think I'd really rather just depend on myself rather than go headlong into adversities with 'faith' which can easily be confused with 'fanaticism' for some people.
