Black is black

If you have read about the silence and all that i wrote some days ago, you may be able to deduce(is that english?), that lately i have been thinking a lot about people's tongue. About what they say and what they don't say. As christian i have also conclude that words and their meaning have a critic importance for us. At least they should have. In general i think that for humans words should have this critic importance, and that we have to know as well as we can their meaning, and when the meaning of one word is not clear... lets use more than one to make it. For christians i really think this importance should be bigger. First of all because our beliefs are transmitted through the Bible, wich is a compilation of words... the Word of God... and i think that is quite important to understand clearly what God is telling to humanity, what are you basing your life in.

But, there is always a "but", lately i have been thinking that somehow, human nature is to be liars. That's the conclusion that i have found to base why people swear. Is as if people usually lie... but when we come to a serious business, we swear, as if saying, "ok, usually i am a liar, but this word i am going to keep, to i swear by, bla, bla, bla, to bla bla bla, and bla". And usually this vows are very serious, and are taken in front of witnesses, so that if we say "black", everybody hears it, and if we try in two months, to change that black into grey, we can't... and if we do that our word, and our vow, will lose all its value forever.

So, somehow, christians, we don't like to swear, i think is because we all pretend that we never lie, (hahahahahaha:D). But more and more, i am finding christians that when they say black, two months later they pretend to have said grey. And then i ask myself, "why the f**k havent't you said grey from the first time?". It really pisses me off, to see that. And i don't mean someone that drops one opinion, and after some months, something in his life makes his opinion change. I think that is quite normal. He said black, and recognices it, but now he realises that it was not black, it was grey. That is ok. What i mean is people that said black, and after sometime, they pretend to have said grey, or yellow or blue... or at least to mean it. That is nonsense for me. Well... not son nonsense... i have found to reasons at least for this behaviour.

The first one is that people is simply stupid. They drop words without thinking. And aftersometime they realise that what they dropped so happily was not the truth. But their pride doesn't let them say, "hay, i was wrong". No... they pretend to have said something different, or to meant something different from what they said. This is the group of people that never thinks of their words, that can't control their tongue. I think that moreless we all are part of this group, at least i can be counted in it. Not always... but the one that has never spoken without thinking it first, can throw the first stone.

The second reason i have found why people says one thing and really means other, is because they are hypocriticals. They think blue... but they choose to say red instead. Because people will think better of them that way, or something like this. But usually this is the worst thing they can do, cause sooner or later actions speak louder than words... and they will not behave blue if they think red.

I think this last is the worst kind of word distorsion. Cause is a conscious way of lying. But sadly is the one that i am finding more in the church. That church of the people that are suppose not to lie. And i feel that is quite sad to find out of church atheists and people like them, unbelievers, that are more consequent with their beliefs, right or wrong, than christians. And well... how do we want people to believe and understand what we believe if we fail to do what we say?

Why is this? Well... as i wrote some monts ago i don't like to think about the evilness in people. Although i know it exists, and i know that lots of "christians" know perfectly, and sadly, what they mean, what they say, and how they behave. I also find worried how the distorssion of words is made by christian stupidness. People doesn't know what words mean!!! They think that white means blue, and blue grey!!! They don't read bible with a dictionary at hand!!! So most of the times when they find something that they don't understand... they use their imagination(some call their imagination "holy spirit"). They don't try to look in the dictionary what that strange word means. They don't ask wise men, or read wise men books, to study and reach the meaning God wanted to give to several words... They just suppose...

I believe that humans should be responsible for the words they dropp... and christians, somehow have got an even more important responsibility in this... But we are to lazy... How sad... how evil...

"But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by the heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath: but let your yea be yea, and your nay, nay; that ye fall not under judgment. "
