Non-Sensical

I need to stop listening to news, tune out of social media, hibernate into a cocoon. I am too often frustrated and/or angered by damaging incongruities in message and thought. 

About religion I recently heard someone discounting Darwin's "Origin of Species". Because it is over 100 years old and it deflected original sin as documented by biblical renditions of creationism, Darwin's investors devised the plan to distract people from remembering the 8th commandment which, coincidentally, they were breaking as often as possible. Therefore, the commentator claimed, Genesis is the only legitimate story of the first man. It makes more sense for Creationism to trump Evolution for this reason.

About The News, ever since Bill Clinton regulated TV news as entertainment, that is exactly what it has become  -- speculation, gossip, and fabrication fashioned by true events. News is 24/7, 365, and news agencies are expected to generate profit. This is the corporate blueprint for entertainment outlets as well.

About social media, there are no superstars. Celebrity is bought, not earned. Any previous stables of talent have been diluted by amateurs, mediocrity. More flash-in-the-pan entertainers are needed to inhabit round-the-clock television and social media, even if they are, literally, "overnight" sensations.
