I must stress this before continuing, I am speaking of the Christian religion, and all those closely related to it.
There are many noble religions whose purpose are not as corrupt as the Christian religion, and I do not judge those. I judge only the Religions I have experienced first hand. I was a Mormon in the church of Latter-Day Saints, well technically until I turned 18. My father was a Bishop there for some 10 years. Throughout the years I had the pleasure of witnessing the corruption within the churches first hand, and also the blindness of those running it. About the time I turned 7, my father stopped believing in god. A devoted Christian would say he lost his faith, but i say he opened his eyes. He was excommunicated for divorcing my mother, he took up smoking, and alcohol, and just regained his life. A life no longer limited, or constrained by “God”.
For century’s past the Christian religion has had a strangle hold on majority of the world, they not only tell you how to live your life, but they also take your money, then the government uses religion to wage wars and control the people. I do agree the Christian religion has played a big part in shaping the morals of society. However I believe it is time for people to stop being so blinded by their faith, and think for their self.
Oh well I suppose it’s to each his own as one may say. To thine own beliefs be true; I like to live by this rule.
“Just put your faith in yourself and your ability to believe in believing. Do as you intend to do, not as you would do unto others to have them do unto you. As your spirit moves, allow your heart to guide you alongside it.”

Why is racism towards black people ranked so highly above the other racism in the world. Well this isn’t the point I’m going to be addressing so just keep it in mind as you read. African’s were sold out by their own kind to white men for one reason, the root of all evil in this world; Money. However this is not half as bad as it’s made out to be. Believe me I’m not arguing, or trying to justify the enslavement of African-Americans. I’m just trying to make people understand that they were not the only race to be slaves, they are not the only race to know pain, to be beaten for differences, etc. You should be lucky only some of you were taken from your home land. Look at the Native Americans, they were driven out of their homeland completely. Again, I wont argue that it was cruel and inhumane the things that were done to African-Americans, However you must admit their enslavement is one of the mildest in the history of the world. I simply believe it should not be treated so different, I find that in itself to be racist. Just random thoughts on the Issue, I’m sure some ignorant people, if anyone is even reading this will enjoy insulting me for speaking freely.

From the people who brought you, Full Metal Alchemist, Eureka 7, and Cowboy Bebop, as well as many other quality anime. Xam’d is unique anime, sure it shares a lot of traits as other anime by Bones. However there is something very defining about it. Maybe it’s the detail to it’s animation, sure you can argue that Miyazaki, or Shinkai have better animation, but you have to pay very close attention to understand what I’m getting at. I’m not talking about the overall artwork, I’m talking about the detail of the animation in the character expressions, their movement, etc. It is all just top notch. The voice acting is also very impressive, and the performances done so far have been just excellent. That aside the story is also progressing nicely, despite having a very slow premise it has gotten very fast paced. I’m highly interested to see what is in store for us all. For more information, and screencaps of Episode 1; Check out Random Curiosity’s Post on it.

Welcome, this is the first official post of Tranquility Blog. The overall drive of this blog is unknown, even to me. I simply enjoy to write, and whether or not anyone reads this is of no concern to me. I’m doing this for myself. I’m doing it to release my thoughts, and beliefs to the internet. I’ll certainly be covering some controversial topic(s) that may or may not offend people. I’ll go out of my way to point out flaws in Religion, Racism, or really anything that enters my mind. I mostly want this blog to revolve around logic. I won’t be posting ludicrous things like “GOD DOESN’T EXIST BECAUSE I’M RIGHT AND YOU’RE WRONG”. That isn’t me, I would rather start a debate on a level of logic, not on slander. Anyway, with all this said; I hope there are a few of you willing to read my random rants.
On another note, I do enjoy watching anime. I may end up blogging really good anime I see too.
Well that does it for this post.
