The Lord has redeemed all of us, all of us, with the Blood of Christ: all of us, not just Catholics. Everyone! “Father, the atheists?” Even the atheists. Everyone!…We must meet one another doing good. “But I don’t believe, Father, I am an atheist!” But do good: we will meet one another there.

Pope Francis, proclaiming that even non-believers will be redeemed by Christ, as long as they “do good” (not all Christians subscribe to this theory). source (via shortformblog)

Yeah,it’s kinda the bedrock of Christian faith, so kinda important stuff, Francis. Good intentions, wrong message.  Maybe something about how anyone can do good, and even be good, it just can never make up for the bad we do, so that’s where Christ comes in.

Apparently the Vatican is now back peddling and saying that the Catholic Church is the only way to heaven (this is something I can’t find any articles confirming it though)

Hopefully this is just a rumor, because I personally think Catholicism is a… difficult..way to be a Christian. Seriously, there’s a reason all my atheist friends come from Catholic families. It complicates and can take the joy out of being a follower of God.

In all seriousness, I do not blame Bieber at all. Remember when that pic got passed around of him smoking weed? 
I don’t care one way or the other for Bieber, but I felt like he was seriously wronged. You get invited to party with someone, you don’t sell them out like that.
You could tell by the photo in question it was a small group of people, so it couldn’t have been that hard to figure out who gave TMZ the photo. Which means someone’s probably not getting invited to any more parties.

I’m diving in to Sherlock

I’m going to be honest: Despite my absolute love of UK series, I was reluctant to watch Sherlock.

tv and movie studios have a habit of ruining perfectly good written stories. I’m not trying to be superior, it’s just fact. I was afraid that they would do injustice to to my beloved Holmes and Watson. 

However, I need a UK series fix (it’s like a drug addiction), and the Doctor Who season(series) has ended, and I’ve already rewatched all of the episodes I couldn’t completely recall, so I thought long and hard.

Misfits? Meh. Tried it, didn’t like it too much. Being Human? I’ve my supernatural fix from…Supernatural (apples and oranges, I know, but still.)

I saw Star Trek recently, and was amazed by Benedict Cumberbatch’s performance. So here I go…

So far, pretty freaking great. Steven Moffat, I can’t believe I didn’t trust you. 

Star Trek Into Darkness was really good

I saw Star Trek recently, and I was not disapointed. Well developed plot, great special effects, and Benedict Cumberbatch was really good at being bad. Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto were great as well, but Cumberbatch had a intensity I haven’t seen on the silver screen in a long time. 

10 out of 10, and I am super picky about movies

WHY? POI?? WHY!?!

Me watching Person of Interest
Some doc they’re trying to save:”Someone give me a restraint before he swallows his tongue.” 
Me:AHHHHHH!!! IT’S A WELL KNOWN MYTH DO YOUR RESEARCH YOU WORTHLESS WRITERS.

Seriously, people will shove objects into seizure victims mouths, thinking they’re being helpful. 

Now, if you’re in a large amount of pain, it might be nice to have something to bite down on, but that’s my personal opinion. 

Here’s what I want: A character on a TV show starts to have a seizure, then some other tries to put something into their mouth, only to be stopped by someone else who informs them it is a stupid myth. I would then commence to celebrate. 

Asperger’s Catch 22

One problem with the medication I take for my Aspergers to help me stay focused is that when I’m off them, I am VERY sleepy. And no matter how much I sleep, I’m still tired.

This makes getting out of bed extremely difficult to me, and trying to have a productive day without my medication impossible. I’ve gone off my meds during winter break, and my body’s dependence stopped toward the end. 
Then school started again and I had to go back to being on them, and so now I’m right back where I started. (Caffeine doesn’t help either)

There’s not much I can do about it, except keep an eye out for a medication that my body won’t be dependent on. Not taking my medication is becoming less and less an option these days.

*yawn*
