Challenge #4: Your views on religion.
I really don't even know where to begin with this topic. Yes, I believe in God. I used to be a church-goer when I was younger, but I hardly remember anything from that time. My mom will say that I am Christian-Baptist. I really don't like the people who try to shove the word of God down your throat. I might be a little more 'christian' today if my parents went to church with me when I was younger, but I don't believe my dad has ever gone to church - for as long as I've been around anyways. And my mom only just recently started going to church within the last couple of years ago. She might have went before I was born, but this I'm not too sure about. Therefore, I am not the religious type by any means. I won't deny that I believe in God though, and I respect people's beliefs. I have witnessed a baptising before once when I spent a summer with some family in West Virginia when I was younger. I thought it was pretty cool actually because they did it in this river. I learned about all of the different religions in my Sociology class my senior year in high school, and what everyone's different religions beliefs were.
I do believe everyone has a right to their own opinions and that they should be allowed to believe in whatever they want to believe in, and that people should mind their own business. For example, gay rights - and how it's not 'christian' to be gay. God loves everyone - regardless of gender, orientation, age, whatever! These people that fight to say that being homosexual is not Christian - well I don't believe they are being Christian by saying and doing what they do. They're not hurting anybody by being homosexual, so what does it matter? Love is love. That is all. Rant over, sorry!
