so i let myself get worked up over the stupidest thing today, big surprise there. anyway, i was on the phone with colleen and she was telling me how she was getting dressed in jon's room this morning and one of his friends walked in. the guy didn't see her naked or anything, but that's irrelevant. so jon introduced him to colleen as "blah blah blah, this is my mormon friend i was telling you about." so what does colleen say? "oh, i have one of those! but she's a bad mormon, because she has sex and smokes and stuff." that's what she's always called me, it doesn't bother me. mostly because some of what she says is true. so i can't get mad at that. again, i'm straying from the topic at hand. so colleen then proceeded to describe the guys face as what came off to me as shocked and disgusted all at once. so my point is, i get really pissed off when people i've never even met judge me. it's so irritating, not to mention in this case hurtful.
i don't go out of my way to defy the church. i believe in and support my church. i appreciate everything the Lord and the LDS's have done for me. and when people accuse me of being a bad LDS, especially strangers i've never met, it really pushes my buttons. if i ever meet this guy, i'll tell him where to put it.
the church is a firm believer of free will. and i think if God wanted us to all be the same, why would he make us so different? i exercise my free will on a regular basis, and am not ashamed of it.
and now that i've gone on my religious tirade, i'll be done for the rest of the year.... probably.
