Flying Turkey

There is this...creature that I know. She is a fundamentalist Christian, and for some reason she likes me in a friend way. for those of you who talk to me, I am the opposite of her beliefs. Anyway she wanted to ad me on facebook, and I thought I had a way out. I said I would add her if she played Dungeons and Dragons with me. She said yes. FUCK.

So you're telling me that you can't even be FRIENDS with someone due to her beliefs?

I mean, does she read Chick Tracts? Is she a member of the Westboro Baptist Church? The Klan? Any REAL reason you can't simply be FRIENDS with her?

Yes, there is. I have a rule that if someone tries to convert me, I can't be friends with them.

convert her... to dungeons and dragons!
then comes the devil worshiping and the real magic

What makes you think she's going to try and convert you? Contrary to most popular beliefs, religious people don't constantly try and convince you their point of view is the best one around.

One of my closest friends is an Aethiest, and his wife is a rather devout Christian, she even teaches Sunday school, but she never tries to force her views on anyone else or insult others.

Not everyone in the world is a religious nut job, it is possible the girl likes you and wants to be your friend regardless.

Yeah, it seems ridiculously immature and insecure to refuse to be friends with someone because they're the exact opposite of you. It makes things more interesting, who wants to talk to people just like them all the time?

I still think you should ask her to take her top off.

And maybe not even ask her. TELL her. Chicks like it when you take the initiative.

Kao knows what he's talking about. I take my top off for him all the time. 95% of the time, he doesn't even ask!

No, Scott, that's just because you like stripping. it's a different thing. :P

I grew up as a devout Catholic as a child and pretty much went to church every sunday. Now, I still share some beliefs with the church, but I also believe that religion itself was concieved by man, you believe what you want to believe. I am thankful for my church-going days though, had I not been through the church group I was in and knowing that there are people in this world who like me for who I am, I probably would have commited suicide years ago.

I just showed up here randomly because I haven't posted in a long while and I'm kinda stuck on my newest novel. So anyway, there's my two-cents.

I think a lot of Christians take the "spreading of the word" thing way too far. I think that the point was to spread the word to those that have never heard it before, if you have heard it and decided not to believe then that's your decision. They shouldn't try to "force" it on someone, that defeats the purpose.

An old friend got this annoying Christian girl to smoke a joint rolled from a page of the bible while he made love to her from behind...

...

I've always been pretty jealous of that guy.

I try to stick to the old axiom, "friends don't talk about religion and politics."

If everyone acts mature about it and doesn't get offended, then you can have some nice conversations about religion and politics. I've only ever talked about them with close friends though

be open minded and yet don't cave to her just because you want to get in her pants (which depending on her strength in her beliefs) might or might not happen. True of every girl.

You could always try the Catholic condom...a wedding ring. I'm sure "I only married her for the sex" is ground for a quick annulment.

this topic reminds me why i love FT

Never argue politics or religion with a jackass.

And anyone that doesn't agree with you is what?

I haven't talked to you in so long dude.
How the hell are you?
