God, Jesus, and the Virgin Mary
Ok... so those who know me know that I am not a particularly religious person. I do, however, believe in God, Jesus, and the Virgin Mary. Everything else is kind of blurry and, as a general rule, do not give a fuck about in hopes that it will not give a fuck about me.
I believe in these three particular figures because it helps me sleep at night.
See, God is like the founder of a large multimillion-dollar-Fortune-500 company that has long since retired and now takes daily walks on sandy white beaches while watching the sun set because He has worked hard in building and molding His company (i.e., the Universe), into the well-oiled, self-sustaining place it is. It does not need Him to canoodle and baby it anymore.
Jesus? He is the peacekeeper, the cop, the CEO. He is the one responsible for keeping the proverbial End away, having meetings with other religion's gods, delegating various duties (probably to saints and angels), and makes sure the galaxies do not try to cannibalize each other.
The Virgin Mary is exactly what she is. The kind, caring mother that are most commonly found in fairytales. She is the one that deals with the actual individual personal stuff. She is the one I go to to find my 'inner peace.' Or rather to have long, lengthy conversations with.
So that is basically my view on religion. I know it is no where near what it is supposed to be but, I repeat, I do not give a fuck.
