I'm beginning to lose track of exactly who is in love with who. Oh hell.
It's becoming seriously convoluted...wonderful, ain't it? I like complicated plots. It adds to the rereading value. So I can understand the story better when I go through it a second time.
Still, it agrees with the way I view the world and God in general. It's strange really. How I view God is admittedly less harsh compared to the way God is being portrayed in the manga, but the principle is still there.
We're all His children. Human, angel, demon, all children of the Almighty. Demons, once, were angels too. We're all His creations.
Whatever. To lose the "self" and become one with God, that is the ultimate happiness, apparently.
Then why give us "self" in the first place? Why chain us by giving us "self"? If "self" didn't exist, we wouldn't have to be chained. We would just be a part of you.
How cruel then, our Almighty God. Forcing us to choose! To continue loving only you, when love itself is supposed to be unselfish...to be shared.
No. Love is a selfish emotion. The desire to...take, to possess.
The desire of humans to love and be loved...to chain and be chained, by each other's hands...
That is the "love" we share.
Oh mighty God! How far your children have fallen! Merciful Father! Omnipotent Creator! This is the work of your hands! You, who stood aside and watched your children suffer! All for your means...your wisdom shines upon us all, sinful children of God himself...
I've said this before and I''ll say it again: blasphemy is fun.
Yes I am a sinner. Yet we are children of this "God" who created us on some unknowable whim. Made in His image, once mud and clay, and with His divine breath brought to life...
Our Loving Father...Wise Creator...Almighty God...
No more than a cruel being. Love? He sacrifices his own Son for us! What does that say? That he loves us more? A cruel God, ruthless. That's what it means.
Cruelty like none other.
Let us live! Let us breathe! Let us be part of you!
Father, oh Father, why hast thou forsaken us?
Are we not all your children?
Yet you say we turned away from you.
We only ever wanted to be loved, that is all.
Can't hear your voice...
Is this what life is about?
We are so far away from you...and each other.
This is our sin.
