This is a pretty touchy subject.

I don't know if I'll have to delete this blog later or not. But I'm going to go ahead and post it anyways because I feel I have a right to.
Religion. Whenever someone brings up religion, I get so uncomfortable. I have a LOT of friends who are christian, and/or go to church regularly. I'm a pretty open minded person most of the time, about this stuff. I go to church every so often, and I don't cut down people for believing in a certain thing. But I have to say that I don't believe in God. I am agnostic...if you don't know what that means; it means that I don't believe in anything, but I do believe there is something out there for me to believe in.
I'm not going to criticize anyone for having any type of religion.
I just want to say that noone should be judged for what they believe in. I get really annoyed when people sit there and say that my friends and I worship 'satan'. It's kinda hard to worship something that I don't believe in, don't ya think? haha. I don't care if any of you joke around when you say that I worship satan, or I'm Satanic, it's not funny, and it would be none of your business even if I did.
I'm going to answer some questions ahead of time, because I know at least one of you is going to ask me something:

Q: You dress off-beat, that's why I joke around about you being a 'satan worshiper':
A: Don't assume things, you don't know me. I don't sit there and make assumptions about you off of what you wear. That's just stupid.

Q: How come you don't believe in God?
A: What God? There are so many 'gods' out there, that, quite frankly, I don't have the time or patience to sit there and worship something that I don't even know is real.

Q: Why do you go to church if you don't believe in god?
A: Because church is fun sometimes, I have a good time getting to know what it's like to attend it, but I'd never do that regularly. Like I said, I'm not a closed-minded person about it.

If you're going to say something negative about this, go right ahead.
I'm quite curious to see what all of your responses are.

(FYI: I didn't post this to instigate problems with other students or the school, I just thought it'd be something interesting to talk and be open about.)

Boe,
I love that your open about what you believe in or not in. I think that is good that you go to church sometimes!! I would never judge anyone by what they wear because you never know. Well i will get online as soon as i can!! so chill out!!

YEAH I MEAN, I AM SUCH A SATAN WORSHIPER.

If it comes from the mouth of someone @ SC, it apparently isn't important.

I agree with you. I do believe in God, but you're right in saying that there are so many Gods out there. There are many religions, and most believe different things, so we never really know which one is right, if any of them are.
