WHAT the FUCK
Everyone here knows my view on religion. Some think I’m wrong, some don’t give it a second though and some just plain don’t give a shit. I was training this new girl today, she’s really nice she went to sehome and was in band two years ahead of me.
Anyway of course somehow religion was brought up. Unfortunately she was one of those real strong Christians who believed that she was right. Now everyone knows that I have no problem with people and their religion as long as they are respectful of other’s. She wasn’t.
She basically said I was wrong with what I believed, that I didn’t have ‘enough information’ and that I believe that other people weren’t wrong in their religion that I was wrong as well.
“Jesus says that the only way to get to heaven, (and in the bible there is only a heaven and a hell,) is to go through him, and you can’t do that if you believe other religions.’
I was getting so upset and frustrated because she wouldn’t listen and she just made me feel wrong. AND I HATE PEOPLE LIKE THAT.
Religion shouldn’t be ‘black and white’ it should be your connection with who/whatever you believe. How am I evil for thinking that there are more possibilities then what I believe???
She offered to bring me a bible of the new testament (is that what its called?) so I can learn about how Jesus lived. I just nodded because at this time I was just too pissed to talk.
I hate people telling me I’m wrong with religion because it took me five years to figure out where I stood with God and to have someone just flat out tell me, ‘you don’t know what your talking about.’ Annoys me to no end
OH she also said that if I believed in God and Jesus that I need to save those that I care about, example, Curt is agnostic so therefore I need to tell him I’m worried about where his soul will end up for all eternity.
Now, she wasn’t as bad as some Christians I’ve known. But she acted in a way so different and just… rude.
I understand she was just doing what she felt was right… trying to save my soul and all, but I didn’t asked to be ‘saved’. I have my religion, I know where I stand with God, and even if everyone out there believes I’m wrong…. That’s your own damn fault.
There is NO wrong when it comes to religion. You need to find out where you stand with God or whoever/whatever and be strong and don’t take shit from anyone. I had to call curt and I told him ‘I almost feel like just telling people I’m Buddhist because I can’t handle this… but that goes against what I personally feel and I can’t deny my god in my eyes.’ And he just told me to stand strong, never cave my belief is my own and no one can change that and no one should feel the SHOULD try to change it.
So basically, if she does end up giving me a bible…. I’ll just give it to someone else. I’m not reading it because I don’t feel I need to read this to have a better relationship with GOD.
*~*~*
in other news… just got a call from my doctor. She said ‘you need to come in so we can talk to you about your thyroid tests. It’s too complicated to talk about it on the phone.’ What the hell does that mean??? So something is obviously wrong. But how ‘wrong’ is it?
