So after a wonderful dinner at Shang Du tonight I was attacked by a wild pack of christians. I was just minding my own business walking with Josh and Ryan. The lady asked me if a wanted some gospel I think. I said "no thank you" very politely and continued walking. She caught up to us and forced a pamphlet into our hands. I thought I would be able to make my escape then, but she had smelled blood and continued. She opened up her speech by saying that she used to be in a cult when she was in college and would perform rituals and such. In my mind all I could think was "way to be convincing!" She basically said "Hi, I am easily impressionable and desperate to fit in a group." She told me that I need to stop listening to rock and roll and other wild par takings (obviously referring to my way of dress). She closed by saying that the end is near and now is the time to repent blah blah blah....

So first off why do they feel the need to approach someone who I suppose stands out and assume they they are a bad person? Most of these faceless greek fucks are horrible people. They party every night, they have premarital sex, they drink, and they pretend to care about charitable issues. Here I am working hard at school and trying to be a good person for the simple sake of being a good person. I suppose I must be the true evil or something...

Is the "end of the world" really a good reason for deciding to be a good person. One should always be kind to others and live morally regardless of impending doom. And if one were to repent simply because the world was going to end; would they not be doing for selfish reasons?

I just hate ignorant people who push their beliefs upon me. Believe what you want and I will believe what I want. Respect me and I will respect you.

end of story
