What? No effort?

I'm sick and tired of the people in my debate class.  Some of them just don't do their work and it's starting to piss me off.

They say they're committed and whatnot, but if they're so 'committed' then why don't they bring in their work?  Why don't they sell stuff for fundraisers?  Why don't they go to tournaments?

I'm not saying everyone is a slacker, but the majority of the people are.  And if they find this blog post I hope they feel angry and guilty.

Because of them our class gets yelled at and we're going to miss out on our end of year party.  I'm sick and tired of it.

If they don't do the work then they don't deserve to be in the class.

On the brighter side of today, I went to the Art club Halloween party, and it was awesome.

Tomorrow I'll either go tube rolling or trick or treating--- maybe both.

Denomination what?

I think Religion is overrated.

I mean, if you believe in God, or whatever you call the higher power you believe in, that's great, but some people get so wrapped up in denominations it's not even funny.

Baptists, Presbyterians, Mormons, Methodists, Lutherans, Church of Christ, Pentecostals, the list goes on and on.

Who cares about denominations?  They all believe in God and heaven, most members of the church get baptized, they all pray, what's the big deal? They're all a form of Christianity.

I've been to all the churches I've listed above, and even some other religions, and the one thing they seem to have in common is that they think they're right.

Don't deny it if you go to church.  Most members think that their 'section' of religion is the right one.

It's crazy and hypocritical.  Baptists are especially bad about this.  How do I know?  Well let's see, I've been to 5 southern baptist churches, 2 independent fundamental, and 1 baptist church up north, and a 'normal' baptist church too.  Each one claimed to be the 'right church that will lead you in the path of the righteous'.  

Crazy shiz if you ask me.  And everyone wonders why I want to be a Buddhist.

My Friends are

Today I've been coming to the conclusion that no matter what my friends do, I'm not going to interfere with their lives.

It's none of my business what they do, even though I may think it's stupid.  Whatever, it doesn't matter.

If my friends want to smoke, it's their choice.  If they want to have sex it's their responsibility to use protection.

I'm not their mom, and I don't want to be.  I think it's just time to step back and not say anything.
