Poor left out xtians...
:eyes:

I've really enjoyed being in Choir this semester, but for fucking crying out loud, everytime I think I've met a nice, decent person in that class, they open their mouth and say something that just turns me off completely.

One of the girls graduating was complaining that Baccalaureate is "neutral" (not my phrasing), or rather, non-demoninational, non-religious. *gasp* :o :eyes: Because she is a xtian and it is very important part of her life (why?)...and what? So automatically all non-xtians and non-religous people just have to suck it up? I'm tired of doing that; I've been doing that all semester...

Thank the FSM that's over with now...

1. How terrible for them to have to live with non-Christians.
You'd hope that college would help expand those horizons, but for some folks it just never sinks in.

2. Do you go to a Xtian school?
The Baccalaureate at my (Catholic) university is religious, and I could see Catholics getting bent out of shape if it wasn't. If you're not at a religious school, then that girl has nothing to gripe about.

4. No...
it's just a liberal-arts university in southwestern VA. I think that may be the problem...lol

Yeah, just because there's a chapel on campus, does not mean EVERYONE goes in there.... *sigh*

7. Hell, I we have a chapel on our campus, and not everyone goes there
The services are at 6:30 and 9:00pm. You really can't expect students to show up on Sunday mornings, even if they are nominally Catholic. Even at those times, people don't go very often.

3. Did you ask her if she was in her CHURCH choir?
Did you remind her that the rest of us live here, too?

Or did you just sigh and realize some people are unreachable?

I'd have said, "That's what church is for," but I'm a bitch.

6. I wanted to say something...
but we were in class, and it might as well be a church choir since it seems like most of the class are a bunch of jesus freaks. (Ok, that wasn't nice, they were nice to me, but still, I had to get that out there.) argh.

8. Why didn't she go to a religious college if it's that damn important to her?
Aye caramba! :crazy:

9. Why not just have fun and play Devil's advocate?
Throw in seductive body language; it really fucks with them. Tell them you like your infants medium rare and then laugh demoniacally and say, "JUST KIDDING DOOFUS!" The looks on their faces will be priceless. I mean, they can't burn us at the stake; fucking enjoy it while it lasts.

Meh, we're better than that. It's fun to think of totally outlandish things to do to the frightened little buggers, though.

Heheh...irreverent Sunday, what can I say?
