There's No Reason To Feel Guilty

Ok so what I really want to talk about today comes from something that I heard someone talking about yesterday, and it had to do with religious restrictions. There are so many things that religion controls, and tells you what you can and cannot do, that can make a person feel guilty. I really want to talk about these. Now, in my eyes, none of the things that I am about to talk about are sins. They are things that people do because they want to do them, and I don't feel like someone should have to feel guilty about it. End of story. Sorry if this makes you uncomfortable, but it's my opinion. 
  1. Tattoos. They are not a sin. Want to get one? Go fucking get one! It's ok! You aren't going to hell for it, and it's your fucking body! Have fun! And make sure to post the pictures on Facebook so I can see how awesome it is.
  2. Masturbation. Ya, I said it. Who the fuck cares? Who does this affect? No one except yourself. Go at it, bro. Have fun, and clean up after yourself.
  3. Pre-marital sex/sexual relationships. It happens. An incompatible sexual relationships is one of the main reasons for divorce. So why not find out before you get married? It's not a big deal. You shouldn't have to feel ashamed of that. If you really love someone, then I do not see a problem with having a sexual relationship with them. Just don't be fucking slutty about it, and you're fine. Even if you're slutty, that's your decision. But use a fucking condom.
  4. Drinking. It's ok to have a drink, and have fun with your friends. Don't be an alcoholic or become reliant on it, and try to keep it under control. Want to have a beer at the super bowl party? Go ahead! You won't go to hell for it. It's ok.
  5. My fucking language. Fuck you and your fucking standards on my fucking language. I say what I fucking want. End of story.
  6. You want to be religious? Go ahead! That's ok with me!
Now, I know that this may or may not cause some debate, but everyone is entitled to their own opinion and lifestyle. This is how I choose to live, guilt free. Even if you don't choose that, that's awesome! I just don't feel like you should feel guilty should you choose to do these things. It's ok. Whatever your religion, or standards, I respect that. What I don't respect is the guilt people thrust upon others for not making the same life decisions as them. Get over it, and move on. Don't make someone feel guilty for not living the same life as you do. I love you all, whether you're standards are wearing a turtle neck every day to prevent any sign or cleavage, or whether you live in a fucking nudist colony. Do what you feel is right for YOU.
