Idiocy at the 2009 inauguration

The date is January 20, 2009 as I write, the inauguration coverage on all major networks is streaming to the public. It is a historical day for all of america and happy day for a good majority of it. I myself am quite hopeful for a change in washington but one thing at the inauguration made me sick to my stomach. During the beggining of the program a Minister from a famous American church got up on the podium and begged god for forgiveness and recited the lords prayer. First problem with this, the United States of America is and always has been a SECULAR nation meaning that we are a nation of many diverse religions and our government does not claim one as the natons religion, nor is it supposed to make its descisions because of a single religion. That would be discriminating against every other religion in the United States by not including them. I thought we weren't supposed to discriminate? Apparently you can if you are Minister.

READ PLEASE

As i said before if your going to get offended STOP READING! John F Kennedy Highschool or any of its staff are NOT responsible for any of the views of this blog. I'm not about to get involved in some court trial over some religious kid being offended over my blog. Thank you.

My anti-theistic beliefs

Now before start my rant over the believe system that I hold dear to heart i will first say that if you are reading this and you are offended than STOP READING IT! don't read it and then take it personal and get mad at me. I as an American am exercising my freedom of speech. You can read it or not read it all I'm doing is using the mode of blogging to deliver my own message.
Ok. so now onto the actual post.
First and foremost i would like to say that I am a Anti-theist not just an atheist. I say this because I don't want to group others in with me who would not want to be grouped with me. As an anti-theist I believe that religion is a main problem in todays society in every part of the world. I believe that it degrades humans as a species because it belittles human responsibility and disguisting and violent acts are committed in the name of it. I will discuss more on why and give examples in later posts.

Review of "Planetary Duality" by The Faceless

On the 11th of November the tech/hardcore metal band The Faceless released its new cd titled "Planetary Duality" to the masses. It is the 2nd full length (if you can call them that) that the band has released. The cd has 9 tracks: Prison born, The Ancient Covenant, Shapeshifters (instrumental),Xenochrist, Sons of Belial, Legions of the Serpent, Planetary duality 1 and Planetary duality 2. As you first start to listen you instantly notice that this cd is much different than their previous release "Akeldma"(2006) because "Planetary Duality" replaced a lot of the Brutality from "Akeldma" with a spacey technical sound. An almost floating solo guitar is repeated through out the cd and weird time signatures become routine. Although this does not make for a bad cd. "Planetary Duality" in my opinion is an excellent cd. The mix is perfect, the guitar riffs will melt your face off and I didn't think it was possible for their drummer to get any better. The Breakdowns however not as numerous as in "akeldma" are sill there and are quite good, nothing bone crushing though. The thing about this cd that bothers me is the clean vocals. The singer they chose to do the clean vocals (in my opinion) belongs in some stupid wanna be ozzy cover band. He is absolutley out of place in the cd. In Sons of Belial you are enjoying a nice melodic breakdown and then out of no where this obnoxious brittney spears chirps in and ruins it for you. Yes there was clean vocals on the last cd but only for a little bit on one of the tracks but it blended with the song. These new clean vocals on a good number of the songs in "Planetary Duality " just seem out of place and poorley done. All in all Planetary duality is still a good overall cd i give it a 8 out of 10.
