"If you talk to Jesus, that's praying. If he talks back, that's schitzophrenia. "
I have to tell you...that quote is probably the best line I've EVER read about when a religious discussion has occured. You have to love people who love to argue on this issue...both christian and non-christian. You may be asking, where did I find this discussion. Well, today has been one of those boring days at work and I decided to look up quotes for a movie I own. When I came up to the opening page of the website I use to look up quotes, there was a picture of the poster for the movie "Saved!" that comes out May 28th in theatres staring Mandy Moore (wow...that sounded just like a commercial). "Saved!" is supposed to be a controversial movie about the extreme side of 'christianity'. Basically, a girl in a baptist school gets pregnant and her friends try to help set her life straight and save her from damnation while she also tries to save her homosexual boyfriend. Just reading that makes me laugh. It's to bring out the "Holy Art Thou" side of christianity and how christians tend to force their religion upon others, etc. The discussion on the message board I looked at (http://imdb.com/title/tt0332375/board/nest/6877547) starts out with christians disagreeing that they're as stuck up as the movie portrays (which I must say, in my experiences, I've met a lot of people who are and aren't 'bible thumpers') and non christians agreeing with the whole stereotype and giving praise to the movie because it finally makes fun of christians. Somehow the discussion turns to discussing if Hitler was a christian or not (which by the definition of christianity that most people have, Hitler was...he did do what he believed to be right and was God's will). From there it went into an all out discussion on whether or not God is real and people arguing back and forth whether God is real or if he isn't or the theory behind both answers. I'm surprised nobody brought out any of the information contained within the New York Times Bestseller 'The Da Vinci Code' which has points that would make you question your faith to some point, no matter your affiliation. Good book none the less.
Life is pretty good at the moment. Talked to Angala last night...and yes I did spell it right. It was nice to talk to her again after a week of not talking to her somewhat. She 'misplaced my phone number'. You know...if people would put it IN their cell phone, they wouldn't have the problem. This girl irks me at times. hehe. I used the word irk. Sara would be so proud of me. Now...if only Sara could read this. She'd be proud. :-D lol.
Got into a small conversation with Katie W. last night about my ex Katie Z. (I know...confusing. I'll try to make sure I keep things straight) It wasn't anything bad. She was just curious on why I broke up with her. To this day I don't know how I could have been so stupid to have done it. I really can't. She was a great girl to have and be with. She's the one that I haven't really ever gotten over and we broke up more than a year ago. Julie I was able to get over...Tracy I got over, though we never really dated...Sarah I've been able to get over...and the others just haven't been that hard. But Katie Z. ... I don't know what it is about her. Maybe this whole haven't gotten over her thing is the reason why I haven't found somebody since that has fit right (not one that will date me any way) and feels right to be with like that. Now don't think that this girl is always on my mind and I always want to be with her...cause it's not that way. For some wierd reason, when I hear her name, see her name, see her s/n, etc., all these thoughts just come back and I wonder 'What if?'. Seriously though, could she really be the reason? Could it be that she was so great of a girl that she 'raised the bar' in my wants and expectations? If so...I hate my subconcious mind. LOL. It could be true. I could see it be true. Especially since after being with her, no one has fit what I would like in a girlfriend better than she had.
::SHAKES HEAD WHILE LOOKING DOWN::
I think way too much. I look way to deep into things. Is that a bad thing??
::SHRUGS::
Who knows?? Well...I best be going. Work is over in a few minutes.
