I want crosses taken out of the classroom. Bling is ugly and distracting in a negitave way, therefore I think no one should be able to wear a crucifix. Besides that, since I don't believe in it, I shouldn't have to look at it.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

One thing that really does annoy me about relgious groups is preachers though, esspecially the ones that leave pamphlets in my mail. I if i wanted christ to save my soul i'm aware of where the church is. I just findthat kinda crap highly offensive.

You're free to throw it out. They just want you to feel the happiness that they feel. I just tell the babtists that come to my door that I'm not interested. It's not that tough to be nice.

I'm not kidding. Usually door to door groups will leave you alone if you tell them you are part of another faith. The Jehovah witnesses skip our house everytime they come around because my mom told them our family was Christian.

I should tell them I'm a Satanist or something. And then ask them where THEY live so I can bring them devil pamphlets while they're trying to rake THEIR damn lawn!

But how are they hurting you? It's the same as being bombarded with things you see as ridiculious on tv as commercials. You are free to walk away from them, to tell them get off your property, whatever you feel you need to do.

I know it sounds a bit far-fetched but it can be a distraction to a student. Maybe not you, me, or the next guy, but there are students who would be effected.
:lol: Man, maybe we should lock these poor children in a with pads, they may hurt themselves if they are exposed to any sort of stimulus. Part of life is learning to deal with things in the real world, and if they can't deal with a turban or a scarf, then they're going to have some serious problems in this life.

Babtists come door to door in Utah because they thing all of us Mormons are going to hell, basically.

My friends and I have pulled some excellent stunts, when on saturdays we know the JW peeps are coming around. They always want to warn me about sinning and having sex. :lol: I've told them we're a catholic family several million times, yet they always come, with their flyers about all this crap about how i'm a huge sinner. According to them i wont find eternal salvation until i join their "church"

Whatever! You dont have to be rude, just say thing that will shock them, in a nice way. Like, "I'd really like to talk about this, but I was in the middle of sinning, Sorry"

The first time you can be nice, but when they come every saturday for 6 months, its getting to be a bit much.

I read that as "In fact it's easier than attacking me with babies...", and thought What the hell kind of cult neighbourhood do you live in?
