I'm not sure if I agree with what that girl buying her book said but I guess I'd just nod and smile. I mean, what do you say to that?!


Everyone has the right to critique anything they want...it's actually the very first point of the constitution. If you mean morally...I still disagree. I can talk all the shit I want about that girl or any other persons like her and they can do the same about me and as long as no one lies it's all good. In my eyes her ideals were absolutely ridiculous and people who act like that lack any sense of personal responsibility. Everything happens because "god" wants it to and not because of anything they did or did not do. It's just fucking sad. I mean damnit...own up to something for a change. But that's way OT.

Cash...I suppose you're right...those who believe in fate know it ain't always your friend. It's a double edged sword but, again, looking at it that way strips you of any personal accountability. Whether it's fate or "god" you attribute things to, it's still all dependent on your own actions or inactions.
