Why I Dislike Humans
Two days ago, Carmen_Black asked why I didn’t like people. She wanted to know what my reasoning was. Well, honey, the Lord reminded me *JUST* on the heels of that… and apparently for a purpose. So I could come here and explain it to you in no uncertain terms. I’m a little frustrated with people-type creatures this morning, and let me tell you just why.
Last night, I got on-line after the kids went to bed to check on things before shutting down the computer for the day. I was at Facebook because… well, let’s face it, everything that happens anymore, happens at Facebook. I don’t need an RSS feed, I have ‘pages’ at Facebook that link me to the latest updated blogs and websites. People don’t write on sites, they update statuses at Facebook. So that’s where I end up spending the most time, anymore.
One of my friends there is a Messianic gentleman we’ll refer to as P. Ironically, he’s one of the people I met AT Facebook – just a random stranger that I saw post something somewhere, and I replied to his comment, and we hit it off, and have been friends ever since. ((I do this a lot – a good handful of my friends at FB are people I only know at FB.)) P has links to Messianic articles, Jewish news, and some really beautiful Shabbat pictures that I love to see. I love that he edifies me – very, very few people do that… I spend most of my time edifying other people. P is a breath of fresh air in my world.
Anyhow, last night P’s status report was a link to an article about the Temple Institute building the altar for the Third Temple. His comment was, “It’s later than you think!“ And you know me… I thought, “You have GOT to be kidding me. Poor P doesn’t know the HALF of it.”
So I commented on his status. I said, “P, the third temple’s altar was built in 2009… it’s three years later than YOU think!” And because I do try to be a helpful person, I went BACK thru my blog archives, found the link to the post that has excerpts from the 2009 Israeli National News article, and posted the link on his FB after my comment. Because you know me – I document everything, and I figured that would make it easier on him, having the link right at his fingertips.
Fast forward to this morning. The comments on P’s status that followed mine were as follows:
“I hope they didn’t use any tools!”
“So how does that tie in to the Greater Exodus?”
“As I recall, the command was….
to not use any tools when building it“And I about threw my HANDS up in the air. Because God Forbid anyone actually follow the link I provided. You know what it says if you click the linkie? It says,
“The rocks were collected from the Dead Sea as documented in the accompanying video. The additional material for filling the cracks between the stones was collected with a gold-plated shovel, to prevent any contact with the iron. This altar has officially been ruled as Kosher and has been constructed to meet the exact specifications that are required to except sacrifices.
That kind of would’ve answered the questions… *IF* they would’ve clicked the link and read the article to get the information directly for themselves. For that matter, how hard would it be to scoot over to the Temple Institute site and find out for themselves?!??! But honestly? They didn’t even have to do that – I GAVE THEM a linkie right to the article pertaining!
And still you get these completely ignorant comments from people who have been spoon-fed by a church all their lives and wouldn’t change it for the world. They want everything given directly to them, and it better not require any reading or information absorption on their part. It’s like they don’t even realize how depraved their state is. It blows my mind.
The crazy thing is that I went to bed last night thinking, “There’s a LOT more than the altar that I could tell them about…!! They have NO idea just where we are. The timeline, the SMS, the kick-off of the Sorrows… it’s so sad – there’s so much they’re missing!” And I was bemoaning the fact that people aren’t interested in the rest… that I can’t tell P about any of those things. ((Well, I can/do – I link all my blog posts to my FB so people know when I have put something up, so he has access via link to everything here))…
But it’s FAR worse than that – people aren’t even interested enough in just this ONE topic – the third altar - to click the link I put on P’s status update! They can’t even be bothered with clicking one finger on a button and following a link to get the information. They say they want Truth, but they’re lazy, uninformed, abysmally ignorant idiots. I can’t believe just how much that pisses me off. You have these people who act like they’re religious, like they have something, but if THAT’S the person who thinks they have something? They’re severely deluded!! What a tragically stOOpid world this is!!!
And here I am, over here in my own little corner, posting links to articles, noting scripture and fulfillments and spending literally HOURS comparing astronomical events and feast days and prophecies and working all of the information out and writing it all down and sharing it with everyone… I spent years working out WHY christianity is a cult, why it’s NOT the narrow path of righteousness, what Truth actually is and how the Old Testament protocol is actually illustrative of future events and why we are commanded to obedience to live out a dance that – like the celestial movements – play out the plan of all eternity…
And then somebody shows up here and goes,
“What a nice site, may Jesus bless you!”
You WANT to know why I hate humans? Because they have become so absolutely mindless, they have become so ignorant and ridiculous that you can put meat right under their noses, and they bump into it, bounce off, and go looking for it with the same half-assed passionless drive somewhere else. It’d be laughable if it weren’t so hideously pathetic. I can’t stand it – I don’t know how Yehovah can hold off the way He does. I just want to lop heads off – they’re utterly useless, anyhow!! Nobody uses them. What a waste of oxygen! I don’t get it. I know He’s got a timing thing, and that it has to get just so bad before it’s go-time, but… good grief!!
This is why I don’t like people. I can speak Truth – shout it to the rooftops, back it up with articles, statistical charts, illustrations and timelines, and NOBODY gets it. It drives me out of my mind. People are a waste of time. I know my job is to make sure the information is out there, in case anyone should dislodge their head from their posterior and actually fire up the old braincells, but for the most part, people just will never and don’t ever get a clue. There is no logic, no rationale, no actual thought. There’s no real hunger, and even those who claim it… I don’t see them researching, reading, looking, yearning. I don’t see any passion. I feel like the Fool on the Hill…
Three days ago I wrote a post about Sandy Hook and what doesn’t make sense to me. Eight people showed up and added information and other things that made them question what truly happened. Over two HUNDRED people showed up to read the post – which means something somewhere is a-twitter. But then this moron shows up and goes, “You’re a lousy christian for writing negative things about those poor babies.” WHA….???? FIRST, she’s a newbie attacking my character (that she has no experience with) on MY site. Second, I didn’t say ANYTHING about any babies, I said a lot about the gov’t and powers in control at the school. Third… I am NOT a Christian! Get off my site, you idiot! Absolutely nothing of use to contribute, just this yapping mouth going 90/per, thinking she knows something when she’s so full of stupidity, logic couldn’t permeate if it wanted to!
And it’s not just her. The women at P’s facebook? The people who show up and ‘Jesus’ me? The people who I try to explain things to? They can’t grasp it. Can’t seem to figure out how to turn on their intelligence. It drives me crazy. They can’t even CLICK on a LINK to read for themselves. And y’know, it’s a fact that you don’t really learn if you don’t do the research/work… make it your own study. If you don’t see it/read it with your own eyes, it’s not yours. You won’t retain, you won’t comprehend. And since nobody wants to put themselves out with it, the WHOLE world is just pickling in ignorance.
That’s why I don’t like humans. That’s what drives me totally, utterly crazy.

It’s funny, I ask my husband on a regular basis why people are so stupid.
It’s not just about Biblical things either. It’s about just about everything. It is extremely frustrating for me, too.
I have been considering laying it all out in a blog, just for my own sorting it out. All the directions this has been coming from to equal the complete success the dumbing down of America has been. It’s in the educational system, the higher education, entertainment media, news media. Even commercials are so freakin stupid, people ought to be insulted for their intelligence’s sake. But they aren’t, because they actually are that stupid.
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you have rejected knowledge, I reject you from being a priest to me. And since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children. – Hosea 4:6
The thing that really bothers me is that I Love People. But I am surprised I can even communicate anymore from biting my tounge because not everyone can handle what they need to hear.
It is not easy to know how to nudge people far enough to make them think with out pushing them so far they panic.
It’s how I feel about people every single day.
As for the comments on here that pop up and fly in the face of everything sane and rational… well here’s the thing. Saying they are just ignorant and don’t know how to read your site, I think is giving them too much credit. Trolls are trolls, and they post things just to *mess* with you. Whether that is yodling on about ”Jesus” or yammering about what a terrible person you are when you honestly voice your opinion on a subject. It’s all one and the same rotgut.
As for the non-link clicking and reading comprehension failure or desire to have knowledge… I hear you.. see it far too often on a daily basis. Lazy, stupid, sons of…. *grumbles*
One other note – it seems that the person that is the hardest for me to deal with is whoever I was 6 months ago. Not just today – but every day. 10 years ago I was annoyed at people who reminded me of myself 10 and a half years ago. Even worse is when I run into that person today and they are me 8 years ago. I think are you serious?? in 10 years you have only learned two years of stuff that matters?? and they are so freaking excited to tell me all of their new information. It is hard for me to be excited for them – I try to slam the door on my arrogance and do just that – because at least they are moving forward. And if I discourage them – then shame on me.
People don’t know HOW to think any more – they want everything spoon-fed to them. Clicking a link? Are you crazy? They don’t have time for that – just TELL them what the link says. And then don’t get upset when they don’t believe you……:bangs head:
I don’t like people. It’s why I’m such a home-body – at home, I don’t have to deal with idiots. Steven is getting better – but only because *I* am pushing him. (He came home Friday all excited “Did you know x,y,z?!” and I said “Yeah – and I TOLD you about it LAST MONTH.” He’s getting better, because I told him a few months ago that I quit. No more spoon-feeding him – he’s going to have to dig and learn for himself. :sigh: (Not just religious stuff, but everything, because apparently I am a font of all knowledge. :bangs head:))
I really hope the Lord comes quickly……….because I am at my wits’ end with other people (present company excluded, of course!)
On the one hand, I am honored to be part of the inspiration for a blog post. On the other hand, I am hiding in the corner afraid of your hissy fit! lol
Anna, you know I have been one of those “spoon-fed christians” since I was a child. The thing is, I truly am trying to change that. And in doing that, I am finding blogs like yours that present to me an entire different belief system. I am enjoying learnng so much here and places you have directed me.
If I may cushion your anger just a bit…you’ve got to remember, at one time in your life, you were exactly where most them are now. Other than the jerks who just post here to be nasty w/o offering anything of substance, people aren’t trying to offend you with “Jesus” or “God bless you”. They don’t know. Just like at one point you didn’t know. And people are not going to change their entire belief system because 1 person says they have found a different way – even if you provide them links! People don’t know THAT they don’t know.
I understand how frustrating it is for you to do so much research (and omg I can’t even imagine the time you spend on it) and people show no interest. But just like you said, your job is to provide the information – it’s up to each individual to accept/reject it. It’s exactly the same thing as it was when you were involved in church and christianity….just sow the seed and pray that the person will “accept Christ / come to salvation / get saved”…whatever the term was you used.
Don’t think for one single second that all your research is in vain. I truly hope that you feel the way I do about your blog & FB (even at the risk of sounding “churchy”)….if one person is helped by what you do, then it should be worth it.
…….going back to my corner out of fear – let me know when it’s safe to come out
You’re so very, VERY wrong, Carmen. I have NEVER been where they are. All of my life, I have hungered and searched and fought and craved Truth. All of my life. If anyone had brought it to my doorstep, I would’ve grabbed on and CLUNG to it. I follow every link, read everything for myself. It’s what I do, what I need in order to be *SURE* that what I believe is right.
And when I realize that what I believe is NOT right, I have NEVER been afraid to change those beliefs, even at the face of ostracism, contempt, or anger. I have NEVER been blind the way people today are blind. In fact, I saw that same blindness when I *DIDN’T* know Truth, and hated it then, too. Fought to be different from that.
No, there is NO comparison between where I was before and where these people are (and have been, and will remain). None. Just as there’s no comparison between you – actively seeking answers – and them… sitting on their asses at FB, unwilling to even read the article linked *FOR* them!!
As an update, my friend ‘P’ told me to ‘stop having a conniption fit’ and stood up for his poor friends. He also attests that he knew all along that the temple was built three years ago. I’m… SO not going there. Enabler behavior that would just enrage Hosea the way I got pissed off.
@alidansma - I know just how you feel! And there is only so much polite smiling and head bobbing you can do while you talk to people nowadays too. You give them a wee little info and try to get them to come around in their own time, and they look at you like you have three heads. :wry:
LOL I *just* had this rant with dh last night. There is a Youtuber I watch because he puts out Great information about earth changes, and solar stuff, and quake watch, and adds all the links you need to the info he puts together ~every day~ and these people come in bashing the crap out of him. I call them the UFOers, because they are all the ones that watch SOHO and space weather for those little flying ships and boxes next to the sun. And I was so dang angry because this guy is spot on, and if you want to debate his info then *go to the links* and do YOUR OWN WORK!!!! But NOBODY does!!!!! They just wanna be mindless boobs and trash people that do the work! Drives me NUTS!!!!
I am trying to get back into facebook a wee bit, but it disturbs me to no end. I… just… can’t… even… I dunno. The place just creeps me out.
I think it’s a difficult battle because you are fighting “interpretation of literature” which leaves so many questions and no true answers. That may be why there is so many arguments.
