i hate..I KNOW. i like...FAITH.
ive had this conversation so many times, and im sure ill have it many more. im always open to talk about peoples beliefs, and opinions. im always open to share views, discuss, debate, and argue in some cases. im always willing to walk away if you tell me you know, and im wrong. you can believe. its called faith, and we all have faith of some sort. when the subject comes up about religion im always interested, i find it fascinating and intriuging. i like hearing what people believe and practice, if they are open to my views in the same way i am to theirs. i was at work the other day and this woman was talking to her husband about how they were to bring up their daughter. about 9 or 10 people were getting in on the discussion and asked my opinion. the couple comes from very different backgrounds and were at odds with a holiday. when i tried to give my opinion i was opened minded and was taking both parents into consideration. before i was done with my thought she told me i was wrong and she new she was right. she told me that i was wrong in my beliefs and that she knew she was right. i tried to tell her it is fine for her to have faith in her religion, and believe what she wants. again, i was wrong. not only am i wrong, but in her mind i must be going to hell. i like to think that most people would be a little more open in the future, and realize that as much as she knows shes right, so does everyone else. or at least, know that you have faith in your beliefs, religious or not. key word to me in any topic like this is faith.
