I like religious people just fine and all, and admire lots of them, especially since I'm not religious myself and think it's really cool that they can be so devout to something. Only, I don't like the pshyco ones, they make me sad. :gonk: 'Cause they give all the other, admirable people of various religions bad reps. ._.
Terrorists make Islam look bad, crazy homophobes who threaten people with the fires of hell make Christianity look bad, and so on. I really like most religions that I know of. So it makes me kind of sad when people make them look like evil things. D:
Since we're talking about religious nuts and all. Only you guys were talking about them in regard to homophobia and I derailed the topic train just now. DX Bad Iltu!

Iltu! That first point you made, that's exactly how I feel! Religious people in general, who follow a faith as it's meant to be followed are truly wonderful people. I don't like extremist, and I dislike people telling me what to think and believe. When I did used to go to church I was always impressed that so many people could believe in a religion the way that they do. But there are still always people that turn me off to religion. I think if people learned to follow their religions they were truly meant to be followed, then we wouldn't have all the problems that we do have.
I mean "Love they neighbor"? A basic principle like this is looked past more often than the verse about marriage being between a man and a woman. I find it very hypocritical that some religious extremist think that just because they follow a faith and someone else doesn't, then they can pick or choose which parts of that faith they have to listen to.
And...I'm off topic and my sister distracted me so I can't remember what I was going to say, so I'll stop there.

Sho- Yeah, I know what you mean about people thinking their religion is supreme and all that, and then ignoring parts of it to stress others. X_x It drives me insane! All of my super religious friends are for at least civil unions between gays, if not actual marriage for them. 'Cause they understand that, you know, you're supposed to love people above all else, seeing as how that's THE CORE OF THEIR RELIGION and they also realize that times and views change. :/ I don't know why people can't just understand that.
This stresses that point pretty well.

I want to be in Cali and protest too! I'll hold a sign! Nope, not a "Equal rights" or a "Marriage = Love" one.
Because I'm such a jerk, I would most likely hold something like "Ban women from voting!" and behind it would be " “I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.” (1 Timothy 2:11-14)". I would probably be stoned, but at least I would die knowing I enjoyed their annoyance.
Yep, I'm a bastardic jerk. Blame that on my country's nature of bashing any minority religion.

I sort of feel bad for the bigots. Given the way our society is moving forward, they're soon to be left behind.
Y'know that grandparent/great uncle/etc. who was sort of nice, but so ridiculously racist that you felt uncomfortable around him and couldn't respect him? That's what these bigots are geared up to be in 30-60 years. Scorned upon by society, and marginalized by their own families.

About these people, I don't know if I should feel pity or anger towards them. Pity because, well, they were raised to believe that such things were horrible unpronunciable sins. Heck, my parents raised me to be a racist. But then I can't help but feel anger, because at least I poped my bubble and had to admit [with lack of proof though...] that blacks are as able to make a society progress as whites. They don't. They just blindly follow the fanatism that shapes their crab mentality, and are happier the less contradictory information they learn.
... I'll go deeper when they finally reach that position, though.

I love that link Iltu. It was awesome and really shows how the times have progressed. Who are these people to say what practices are still abominations and which can be let slide?
It's true, these extremists are going to get a lot of hate later, but I'm not sure if I can say I'll feel sorry for them....

Iltu-- that link is great, I saved it. I would never of thought of things like that. Those would be good counters when you come across someone that tells you it's wrong b/c the bible says b/t man and women.

It would be even better if they were doing one of the aforementioned things and then said that. Though I'm sure they would make some sort of excuse.

I would still be funny to watch them studder all over themselves as they try to come up with a reason of why one bible verse is allowed to change with thej times but another can't.
So how are you doing Sho?

Yes. That would be hilarious to watch.
I'm doing pretty good, a little antsy over my job interview on Friday, and a little disappointed that I have to start taking my summer class on Monday.
How are you?

I'm good. A bit stressed that sunday is the last day I work at my current job placement. Then I have to wait for the temp agency to call me with someplace new, and that can take weeks. Basically I'm going to be jobless again.
What kind of class are you taking for the summer?
Sorry to ask you something and leave, but I'm going to head to bed. I have a doc. appointment early tomorrow and don't want to oversleep. I'll answer/reply to you tomorrow.
Good Night Sho.

That's fine, sleep is important!
Oh no! Being jobless doesn't sound fun at all, especially if it's only in-between jobs.
I'm taking Web Site Design. I wouldn't be taking it over the summer, except that my scholarship requires that I take a certain number of classes a year, and I couldn't fit anything into my schedule last semester, so summer it is!
Edit: Hello Yumi, how are you?
