Current Affairs

I don't know whether this goes under issues or not, but because it's so stupid, I'll put it under daily life.

Okay, I have, for the last few days, have heard a lot of bad stuff in the news. Okay, not so unusual, but, well, I dunno. It just seemed worse for some reason. Has anyone helse heard about the the autist child which a bunch of christians killed in the name of god? Okay, not in a weird, Voo doo way (no offence to any voo doo-ists here) but basciacally they wrapped him up in blankets so he would stop moving when they Exsorsiced him, and they basciacally killed him. And what did they say? They used God as an excuse. The poor kid's dead, and why? because those christians refused to believe that God had made him that way, and would rather believe that instead of seeking medical help, beating and binding the boy would be a better idea. I mean, what the hell?

And then, today I heard about a hundreds, if not thousands of christians making a fuss because someone removed a statue of the ten commandments from a court. I mean, I know what religious importance the ten commandments have to christians (I aced my religious studies GCSE) but I just wanted to tell them, "How dare you! How dare you cry and gnash your teeth as if they were traking away the bloody sacred ark from jerusalem (which I would understand, but they weren't. It was a statue of the ten commandments, not the origional ones.), but then you think it's all right to kill a kid who's only sin was a/ to be born and b/ to be autistic?"

And then, again, in America, how hasn't heard about the twins kept in the cages? It took four months (correct my extrteamly wrong facts guys!)for anyone to do anything about it. I's just stupid. Those people cared more about a book and a lump of rock than human lives! AND WHAT GETS MY EDITING GOAT IS THEY CLAIM TO BE SOOO MUCH BETTER THAN EVERYONE! They say christ makes them human, but they took a human life, one of the things that was written on that lump of rock that it said not to do, under any circumstances. It doesn't matter if it's a child whose has "demons" in them. It just doesn't!

Please, please can anyone explain to me (although I think I allready have an idea of the answer)why, if these people are so much more moral, and human and generally supposedly better than any one else, why they permit such acts of hypocrasy? Didn't jesus say, "do not do as the pharasisses( lets just say that they are the hgypocrits for the sake of argument) do?" in Matthew? The christians who were protesting the removal of the ten command ments were doing just what the pharacises did. They wept and wailed in public for god, they made themselves untidy and just were generally hypocritical.

Okay, so after getting really, really angry about it (shouting down the house to a loud rock song, my poor parents.....official apologises all around.) I just sat down and cried about it. Okay, it doesn't do much good, and it doesn't help anyone, but I sat their and cried. I just cried and cried about it and I sorta prayed. Not in any good way, I learned a few prayers at my school, but they were just habbit. I didn't really know them as prayers, or even what they were about really. I just talked to whatevers up their, where it's sky and rocks or some entity, and I found myself wishing that if the entity up their was listening, that it would look after all those kids hurt by those people. It sounds so sappy and american melodrama-esk, but i did. I don't know whether a god listened or not, so I was wondering, anyone else feel like that after hearing about all this, or was it just me crying out for them to be safe?

Sorry, i've ranted now. apologises for the extream crappiness of spelling, grammar and so on. I was just so angry for what they did.

Pirates Of The Caribbean.

Okay, no one has asked this, probably for a reason that me as a n00b has no Idea about.

So, have you seen it?

I did. And at the risk of spoiling it, I'll tell you what I think of it. I though Johnny Depp was Brilliant as usual, especially , well during the whole movie. He did wonders with the script and bascially stole the whole thing. But,. and a big but, HE LOOKED LIKE BLOODY ADAM ANT! I kept expecting him to burst out into Stand or Deliver, or Prince Charming at any moment.

The Loverly Oralndo Bloom, I felt was very, very weak. I dunno. He struggled with the script and was like the woman in Dr No, they should have got a voice over so it looked like he was acting (apologises all Orlando and Legolas fans). I'm sure he was trying his best, but it doesn't stop him from being a weak actor.

As for the rest.....The evil pirate dude was funny (Barbosa I think), but I started to laugh when she shouted 'Arrrrrrrrrg!'. Some thing just...happened. Keira Knightly was was good enough. Posh accent, which, of course, everone except from people from Somerset have (acording to the American marketers). Mackenzie Crook was good as well, but I was expecting him to be good.

So, what can I say?

"Prince Charming
Prince Charming
Ridicule is nothing to be scared of
Don't you ever, don't you ever
Stop being dandy, showing me you're handsome"

Or I could say, Go see for fun, but don't expect the greatest movie ever.

What *does* An Auror Do?

I was reading Harry Potter the other day, and I just suddenly realised - What the hell does and Auror do? I didn't know, so I was wondering if you lovely people could clear up the confusion in my poor little brain.
