This video is making the rounds on the internet, as it should be.
This young girl says everything right. She is amazing.
Please, watch it.
Me.
WindySydney began as an online journal detailing my exit from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Since leaving the Mormon Church, I have come to the conclusion that religion does more harm than good. I have also become an atheist, looking for logic and reason instead of accepting things on faith.
I also blog about things going on in my life. I am learning photography, I have a severe addiction to diet coke, I am a proud vegetarian, and I have two of the cutest cats in the world. Life is officially an adventure without the magical fairy-tale ending. I plan on enjoying it.

I enjoy your blog and respect your opinions, but I have to disagree on this one. This girl's speech is predictably full of naivete. She, being a child, is wishing for a fantasy realm that just cannot exist.
Ugh, I had like 4 more paragraphs before I decided there isn't any reason to go further into it.
There are certainly good intentions there.

Unrealistic? Yes.
Fantasy? Yes.
No question.
But she's right. This is what we should be striving for. It's highly unlikely, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to do better about the environment and violence.
I understand you POV.
