PLEASE READ BEFORE SENDING ME A FRIEND REQUEST OR MESSAGING ME!!!!
1.) I am not approving friend requests for anyone under the age of 18, unless I know you personally. One of the reasons for this is that I do not approve friend requests without first viewing your profile. If your profile is set to private, I can not view it.
2.) There are two things in my life which I hold sacred - my music and my spirituality. While my music preferences span a broad spectrum, it is pretty much confined to metal, rock, blues, grunge and alternative. I love everything from Fear Factory to Nick Cave to Shooter Jennings. I generally do not like rap or hip hop (with very few exceptions). So, if you send me a friend request, and you have nothing but hip hop or fucking Kenny G and Duncan Shiek on your music list, you aint getting added. As far as the spirituality goes - I am an AGNOSTIC PAGAN. Agnostic, from the Greek "a" - meaning "without" and "gnostic" meaning "knowledge". Agnostics believe that it is impossible to find absolute proof of the existence of any particular god, nor is it possible to find absolute truth in any spiritual belief or dogma. Agnosticism demands a skeptical view of any religious doctrine that offers itself up as "the one true way". Agnostics are not atheists, we do not vehemently deny the existence of god or a godhead. Many Agnostics are highly spiritual people who believe in the existence of something, they just can't decide what to call it. I consider myself an Agnostic Pagan, because the spiritual beliefs that I find most acceptable are those which belong to the old religions. If I absolutely had to subscribe to a particular relgion (I'm talking gun to the head here), I would most likely choose Zoroastrianism (or Manichaenism or the traditions of the Yezidis.) I have nothing against the Old or New Testament, and I have nothing against Jesus. But Christianity as a religion does not work for me, mostly because I can break down every single aspect of the religion and tell you exactly which Ancient Near Eastern religion the Christians stole it from. Christianity is the least original of all religions, and is actually a composite of Judaism, Zoroastrianism, Manichaenism, and Egyptian, Sumerian, and Babylonian relgions. In addition, it is one of the most close-minded religions. (Well all of the Big 3 monotheisitic "revealed" relgions - Judaism, Islam, Christianity - are all extremely closed-minded.) I have no patience for individuals who are so blind and naive that they think there is only one way that is right for everyone. That is primitive thinking. Evolve damnit! Therefore, if you send me a friend request and you are a Christian, or are "trying to meet a nice Christian lady", you most likely aren't getting added back. No religious fundamentalists of any kind allowed!
And do not even think of sending me a message calling me a heretic or informing me that I am going to hell. And don't offer to pray for me to find the way, or tell me how to become a born again Christian. No thanks, I was born ok the first time. And there is no such thing as being "born again". I have nothing against Christ, for the record. It's his followers that fuck it up. Don't even think of quoting scripture at me either, I was raised by fundamentalist, Christian Millenarians. I have, and continue to study the Bibly inside and out, and I have studied world religions extensively. I probably know your religion better than you do. I can go round for round with you, and I guarantee you that, in the end you will give up exasperated, without swaying me one bit. I am an anthropologist, and I have complete reverence toward all belief systems. That does not mean that I will have them forced down my throat. The Burning Times are over, but never forget how quickly those policies of hate can be resurrected. Now I'm sure this will probably piss some other people off, but I'm going to say it anyways. You always hear survivors of the Jewish holocaust saying how they will never forget, or let future descendents forget, lest it happen again. I agree, and I happen to think that anyone who values religious freedom needs to remember what was done to millions of Europeans suspected of witchcraft, at the hands of the Holy Roman Church. Millions of innocent men and women were brutally tortured and murdered, most of the time because a neighbor, mistress or busybody got bored or jealous and decided to accuse someone of witchcraft. A big motivating factor was land acquisition, for, in many European countries including France, the accusor received a chunk of the accused's land. (Did everyone fail to see the problem with this system?) Closer to home, millions of Native Americans were brutally killed or forced to give up their traditional belief systems as the European presence began to dominate, and the witch craze terrorized New England as the Salem Witch Trials condemned many innocents to the gallows. The practice of terrorizing and murdering innocent people because they are suspected of believing differently than you is not something that Christ would advocate. Think about Christ's teachings and really truly understand them, before you start going around calling yourself a Christian. I think he would be pretty ashamed of most of you.
3.) Yes, I am a Slipknot fan. I've known Slipknot since some of you jackasses were in the second grade. I was the first person on the West Coast to write an article on them and predict that they would be the next "big thing". No one believed me at the time, but I was right. While I am glad that my boys have an enormous and devoted fanbase, that does not mean that I want to be friended by every 15 year old Maggot on their page. So, please quit sending me messages that read "wow. ur hawt. u like slipknot. ur kool. wat is ur fav song? do u no the lirics? be my frined, i am hot 2. we have lot in kommen. i am 15." If I get one more of these stupid fucking messages, I am going to fucking go nuts!!! Yes, I love Slipknot, my favorite song is and always will be Spit It Out, yes I know all of the lyrics, including the alternate food parody that Corey made up, which caused me to laugh so hard I pulled a muscle in my back. No, I will not be your friend. No I dont have all that much in common with most 15 year olds. Learn to spell!!! Intelligence and manners will get you on my friends list much faster than a few common interests! And please for the love of god and all that bleeds do not send me a message that says "Hey, I seen u r into Slipknot (or any other band on my favorites list for that matter). We sound like them, so you will like us. You should add us!" ARRRRRRRRRRGH!!!!!!!! First of all - BULLSHIT!!!! How dare you put yourself in the same category with a band that has completely broke every fucking mold that was ever made!!! If I see anything that even remotely resembles a request like that, then it is an immediate ACCESS DENIED!
4.) If you can't write me a message consisting of full sentences, relatively free of grammatical or spelling errors, I would prefer it if you please did not bother. None of this stupid abreviated code shit - It is "what", not "wat", "you are" or "you're" not "ur", and "sex" is just "sex", none of this retarded "s3x" shit or whatever it is. "Love" is just "love", not
