12733607, you don't have to get it.

i don't get how a person can believe in an all powerful, all knowing magic fairy just b/c the earth exists. as if there's no other explanation for how the earth and all the objects therein came to be. as if there has to be any explanation for how it all came to be. or as if that explanation has to tied up in a pretty little package w/nice, comforting stories.

i don't 'get' that.

so what? i don't have to 'get' it. the fact that i don't 'get' it doesn't mean it's not a perfectly valid or fine way to live or conceive of the world. it conflicts w/how i conceive the world. so what? we don't all have to see the world the same way. the fact that some disagree w/how i see things doesn't make my way of seeing things wrong. it's not a popularity contest. i'm not worried that i'm going to lose something if i don't see the world the right way. i don't care.
