That's so s...Aww, Olive I hope you get better soon. That's so sweet that the Panera manager gave you dessert :]<BR/><BR/>And basically, what you said about religion ... I give a <B>WOW</B>. This is kind of lame, but can you link this post on your blog? It's incredible, what you said. I agree fully, but I'm just blown away by the level of truth and insight.<BR/><BR/>peace&love<BR/>nicole.Nicole Linettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11012844606894090211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141434431468457645.post-66681998401464237542009-01-19T01:03:00.000-08:002009-01-19T01:03:00.000-08:00I am so offended! how could you say such crude, un...I am so offended! how could you say such crude, unthoughtful, demeening things? How can you just take what people believe and stomp on it like that? O the horror!!<BR/><BR/>haha jk! ok, not that funny, but at 2 A.M everything seems funny.<BR/><BR/>Relgion is the human way to wrap our heads around something so great we can't ever truly understands. Some parts of relgion make God seem a bit...full of himself. (but hey, if i created the universe, i'd be a bit egotistical too!) but other parts make Him seem so merciful, so great. You seem, i'm a Catholic, but one may also say i'm a herritic, becaue i don't just follow what the church says or what the bible says literaly. I take it all in as parables and metaphors and then find a way to fit it into science. and it actually works. <BR/><BR/>Point is, there's a lot of ways to look at faith, a lot of ways to look at God, relgion, and the world. Choose the way that fits your perspective, the way that you can believe. <BR/><BR/>and btw, don't you hate it when relgious fanatics try to push their beliefs on you? saying you'll go to hell if you don't believe what they do? seriously, if acceptance is such a big deal to the church, maybe these people shouldn't go around telling everyone who believes differenlty they are doomed to forever burn in hell. Just a thought.<BR/><BR/>and hi!! i'm just a random perosn posting on your blog. hOpe you don't mind!ChipotleChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02679482613587679977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141434431468457645.post-11806800507970703102009-01-18T11:33:00.000-08:002009-01-18T11:33:00.000-08:00i know im not sure even exactly why i did it but i...i know im not sure even exactly why i did it but i won't do it again.

Let me say this, Religion is the way that people wish to find the existance that something is greater than man and want that yearning and want to connect, but people forever destroy bonds and more. FOr an idea of the issues u just said.Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17538151645487206856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141434431468457645.post-16817687188089223632009-01-16T20:46:00.000-08:002009-01-16T20:46:00.000-08:00heyyy....just droppin by.nice blog anyway. :)heyyy....<BR/>just droppin by.<BR/><BR/>nice blog anyway. :)bluffyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15119281316634906854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141434431468457645.post-82962498354390475322009-01-15T15:14:00.000-08:002009-01-15T15:14:00.000-08:00Aww man.

You didn't offend me! =] But I agree with Allison, no one really fully understands religion. It is really complicated. I'm having religious issues myself right now. I'm not quite sure what I believe in at the moment. And I never thought of God that way before. I'm kind of siding with you on that. It is pretty egotistical.Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15389359383653148161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141434431468457645.post-60555422669881504732009-01-15T14:56:00.000-08:002009-01-15T14:56:00.000-08:00im sorry your sick :( though if i had an exuse for...im sorry your sick :( though if i had an exuse for missing school i would. yea religon is complicated for everyone. i don't think anyone really fully understands it.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12627076214349877377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141434431468457645.post-63138572222373298162009-01-15T13:17:00.000-08:002009-01-15T13:17:00.000-08:00Ah! That really sucks that you're sick ): That's...Ah! That really sucks that you're sick ): That's the absolute worst part about winter. I hope that you feel better soon!<BR/><BR/>Sorry you didn't do so hot at Answers Please, but it's great that you guys didn't let that get you down. Plus you got brownies! :D <BR/><BR/>My parents have forced me to go to church my entire life. They say that once I'm educated on it, then I can decided for myself whether I want to be a part of it or not. Apparently I still haven't been educated enough in 14 years, so now they're saying that once I go through an entire year of confirmation class <I> then </I> I can decide. So I have to join the church in order to choose to leave it... right... Anyway, I just don't believe what they're trying to brainwash us with at my particular church, and I guess I'm just not a very religious person, although of course I have nothing against anyone. I *hope* that there's an afterlife, just because I can't imagine just not existing, but I'm with you in just enjoying life now and whatever happens, happens.Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15962106717375135503noreply@blogger.com
