Without Really Trying

[Tchaik1994]

satan suffers alongside the sinners. And the baptism is only catholics. Baptism is merely a symbol. there is this thing called the age of understanding, it's when the person actually commits "the original sin" and can decide between the right thing and the wrong thing. So unborn children and small children, and mentally retarded do go to heaven when they die. still unsure about the suicide thing, because you wouldn't have a chance to repent before dying.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@Tchaik1994 I got most of the information from the internet, so it's a bit iffy, yes.

There's this Shakespeare contest that will be put on at my school, and I'm thinking about entering. We have to memorize a monologue that's under twenty lines. If I do it, then I'm going to read Macbeth's monologue in Act 5, Scene 5 ("She should have died hereafter..."). Do you have any advice on how I should read it?

I already have it mostly figured out, but I figured that I should get more input.

Also, I like this video. :D

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@Pixiestix123321 Count the syllables. Find iambic pentameter. Don't do a Scottish accent.

[Pixiestix123321]

@TheGeekyBlonde Thanks, haha. The rules actually prohibit "affecting a British accent." xD

[pastronaut]

The school you're applying to wouldn't be Interlochen, would it? There aren't many art high schools and I went there for 4 years.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@pastronaut Nope!

[karinefizzy]

I like the way you are

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@karinefizzy THANK YOU

[ZoeMcLane521]

You're videos never show up in my subscription box. Ever. I have to find them by going to your channel. It's so much work. So. Much.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@ZoeMcLane521 Thanks?

[teganbowiefreak]

You are my favourite.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@teganbowiefreak You are my favorite garden.

in youth group i was always told "everyone has the ability to learn about god, so there's no reason to be going to hell" and i asked the counselor if a person would go to hell if they were a mentally crippled child that escaped an atheist orphanage at age ten and lived in the wilderness before dying of an infection. she said yes, and we should not question the reasons because we do not have the power to think things through as well as god. -_- i'm agnostic.

[genericnerdyusername]

@summerblack314 I feel for you. I went to a Catholic school, so that sort of squeezed any belief I might have out of me. I'm very anti-theist these days. I'm anti-anything that teaches you to not question things. It's just bullshit. The most important thing in life is to recognise bullshit.

[summerblack314]

@genericnerdyusername i'm anti-atheist too... o_e its a painful complex really. "your soul and feelings are nothing but a scientific explanation, a mathematical equation" not good to tell an artist. i completely agree. Sheep are my least favorite animal.

[genericnerdyusername]

@summerblack314 Dunno really, I find the complexity of the universe more beautiful than the idea that it was just whipped up as is. The idea that we're descended from the stars is pretty damn appealing to me. You shouldn't let theists tell you that life is more beautiful if God made it. There's a whole lot more to it than that, like the chemicals that carry our thoughts, they're not just chemicals, they're why we think at all, pretty wonderful. Incidentally, what sort of artist are you?

[summerblack314]

@genericnerdyusername you mean the chemicals that cause our emotions? that is the hard part i think, accepting that emotions are caused chemicals. (my chemical romance tehe) then if you take into account that all types of energy are kindof the same when it comes down to it, spiritual and physical then i guess its not so bad. but still i prefer to be on the spiritual side cuz life is more magical that way. musician/dancer.

[genericnerdyusername]

@summerblack314 Cool :-) Nothing wrong with being spiritual

[algi80]

@summerblack314 If you think about it, you will see that emotions are a very primitive force. They are even simpler than instincts. So emotions are not the be all and all of spiritualism. (Although they have a part in it.) My personal belief (if you care about such input) is that it is the end of spiritualism when abstract things are represented by antropomorph fabrications. We should have more imagination than picturing a bearded man in the sky. (I'm a skeptical and spiritual at the same time.)

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@summerblack314 I love that scenario, and would like a short film based on it.

[summerblack314]

@TheGeekyBlonde it shall happen

[kenzietheterrible]

Oh, art school, how I dream of thee!

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@kenzietheterrible It's going to be just like Glee, I can feel it.

[algi80]

Eve is a clone of Adam.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@algi80 So God does approve of masturbation!

[algi80]

@TheGeekyBlonde I don't even want to understand the logic behind this.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@algi80 Hehehe.

[xDroflmao1337]

you should be a much more popular youtuber, thanks for being so smart and awesome

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@xDroflmao1337 THANK YOU

[genericnerdyusername]

Sorry if you said it in the video and I didn't notice, but why "Without Really Trying"? Enjoyed the video, you are too clever, which means cleverer than me... Which is a compliment because I'm a super genius. Is there such a word as cleverer? See, I don't even know that. I HAVE TOO MANY QUESTIONS.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@genericnerdyusername See, it's Part 2. Part 1 was 'How To Succeed in Catholic School'.

SO, together, it's 'How To Succeed in Catholic School Without Really Trying', which sounds like a Broadway musical. HA CHA

[genericnerdyusername]

@TheGeekyBlonde Or a quote from a Douglas Adams book. I UNDERSTAND NOW.

[hardworker424]

Religion is complicated. I like your tag of sataaaaaaaaaaan. 

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@hardworker424 Thank you, good sir.

[astrorice]

would it be creepy to just mention how much i like you?

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@astrorice NOPE

[summerblack314]

@astrorice or how much i like you... O_o

[ExeuntPursuedByABear]

"Sweet Unbaptized Jesus" is the most hilarious phrase to hear at 1 in the morning.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@ExeuntPursuedByABear It's almost as good as 'How did you fit a quiver of arrows into a lunch box?'

[InfinityxShark]

@TheGeekyBlonde Has anyone ever solved that conundrum?

[ExeuntPursuedByABear]

@TheGeekyBlonde Don't be silly. Crossbow bolts are much more convenient, since most are collapsible.

[suzukibejby]

Your pretty ALSOME?!

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@suzukibejby <3

[videomaster120]

i saw this in my sub box and i literally went YES! :P

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@videomaster120 I'm going to high five you tomorrow at lunch.

[InfinityxShark]

...wow. I used to be Catholic, and I didn't know there WAS a Catholic Encyclopedia.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@InfinityxShark It's a big, scary world, friend. Don't forget your sword.

[iamsupersoup233]

also, i had to study the bible and it said that adam and eve had cain and abel who are both guys... so who did they mate with?

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@iamsupersoup233 No wonder they constantly fought! Sexual competition with their dad!

[iamsupersoup233]

so, I'm just going to acknowledge this right now, why are you in a shower?

[DarkenedYeastExtract]

@iamsupersoup233 because in the shower, no one judges.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@DarkenedYeastExtract @iamsupersoup233

It's a law of the universe; no matter what you're doing, or how far away from civilization you are, the bathroom always has the best lighting.

[TheMuggleOwl]

jealous about the theatre boys.

[TheGeekyBlonde]

@TheMuggleOwl And only most of them are gay!
