So im in school right now for automotive. My class is 21 people, 19 of which are guys. We have 2 girls. One of them happens to be extreamly extreamly religous. Like wears "have you found jesus" and "the lord is my savior" t-shirts daily. Any ways, working in a shop with mainly guys, we swear and cuss and stuff when we are working. Any guy who has had to work on somethin that wasnt easy to work on or has hurt them selves working on somethin knows about this. Any ways, so the other day i bashed my knuckels..
![]() thats after a week of healing. I took a good chunk out of the top join of my middel finger too. It was alot worse when it happened back on topic, when i did this i yelled out "GOD F*CKING DAMNIT!!!"..mainly cuz it hurt like hell. Any ways, this girl has givin me sh*t b4 about "taking the lords name in vain". I personaly am not religous in the slightest, havent been since i was 11. So because i said that, she yelled at me for half an hour straight about how "even though i dont belive in god, i should respect other peoples religons". Im totaly ok with that, but she honestly expects that every person in my class or in any shop ever is never gonna say "god damnit" or "jesus christ". So she got so offended by me smacking my knuckels that she actually went to the head of our department and b*tched at him for an hour, and is not trying to make it so that if we say that we are gonna get kicked out of class for the rest of the day. Heres the majour downside to this all, the head of our program and the teacher we had that day are both big on religion too. So now they are trying to force religous belifes on us and addapt our lives to what they want because of their relgion. Personaly as some one who is not religous in the slightest, i think its great for any one to belive in any thing they want, but am offended by them trying to force their belifes onto me. I know its nothing big, but I personaly hate HATE when people try and change who i am and try and force their belifes on me. Like i mean ok, if it was just me cussing once or twice she gave me crap, i would be ok with it, but its when she goes to try and make it so that we are kicked out of class, like we are in grade 3, thats where it crosses the line. Like she actually yelled at me one day saying i was supporting satan and demonic worshipings because my InFlames t-shirt had their deamon logo. Any ways, im out of ideas of what to do, mainly cuz i dont wanna come off as a complete ass or offend her more than i already have. Like Im a nice guy, but i come off as a jack ass alot of the time. I mean, im ok with religon and peoples belifes, my girlfriend is a devote Catholic, but it just irretates me when people try and change my belifes or force theirs on me. |

Dude, I am religious and yet I don't try to change. The Lord is greater than all, and if it is necessary that I change, then He Himself will make that happen. Being Christian (or anything else for that matter) doesn't make you perfect, and there are many levels of which people are on. Those who go out of their way to correct you, are doing so for one of two reasons. One, that they care about you and would like to see you on the "Right" path. I was lead to believe in God from a young boy, but I strayed.. I got into witchcraft and other things. Refused to believe in God and put down all things religious. Then I began to have my revelations sent to me through my dreams. The visions I had both asleep and awake. God called out to me over time, and I was reminded of the odd things that took place in the past, that I questioned. Sorry, I strayed from my points. This is about you. Okay, so the other reason why they hit you up for correcting you is because (To remind you of the first reason, it is because they care about you. If it is a girl, then she likes you, but needs you to be equal to her, because religion is a huge part of her life, I will explain why this is important after this point). AHEM! Okay, the second reason is because they are up their @$$es! Looking for anyone to make an example of, to show how far they progressed and how much better they are.
Take the Pharisees from the Bible. They were people who earned this title. Once they got the title, they felt better than those who were below them. They forgot what they were. That is HUMAN. To be human is to error. Life is at a fine balance, and you cannot obtain "Perfect" but you can practice it. Such as Faith, Hope and Love. You cannot say "I have Love and it is going no where", because many things can happen. You can lose all of these, but the only way to obtain them, is to practice them. So, if the girl is trying to get you to come to God, perhaps she has an interest in you. The reason why it is important and why it is mostly successful to have God the main factor in your marriage is because, rather than seek Dr. Phill, or any human for that matter to get advice for the marriage...... You have God. So who counsels your marriage when the happiness doesn't last? The Bible. The one thing that you both built your life on. The reason why marriages are taken place in church is to receive God's blessing. So He can make it work. Aside from all this, I have had many experiences that make me a firm believer. But I do not try to change anyone, I only offer advice to those who ask. At any rate, if you have any questions, feel free to ask. As for the Libido of christian women? Very Strong! Imagine holding out for so long. Even if they are not pure... It is not wrong, the Song of Solomon answers most questions of a young man, that he would ask himself about a woman who lives her life for God. I offer friendship as well as advice to you my friend, PM me anytime. Good Luck. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204
