While in the end is people's decision with religion and dating, if they choose to so call honour their religion's idea that no man is truly equal because they chose a different faith and that dating them is a no no, is their loss.
While its almost noble or romantic to see someone willing to change a faith or religion to be with someone, I don't think its justified. If the person can't truly accept what makes you who you are, then they don't really deserve you. But in the end is all personal choices, and with each choice comes a consequence or price. Frankly I'm just so sick of certain people in religions. How can organizations that claim to bring peace and morals among men could cause so much problems for its followers and non followers? Why can't people have faith in THEMSELVES along with their religion? Following every rule in the book is suffocating and makes a mockery of the free will we are given, be it from a high power or just plain science. As cheesy as it sounds, people should follow their heart to do what is right and learn to accept others. Not drive them away cause religion said so. Jam it back in, in the dark. ![]() { :: ~ Air - the 1000th Summer ~ :: } :: That sea went on forever, into the blue distance :: * That road went on forever, continuing straight ahead * ~ : Summer comes again, shining silver : ~ : When I close my eyes, suddenly I can see that day's blue sky :

Question is though did these people gained knowledge of what else goes on in the world outside of their religion? Cause if they are aware of the world and chose to obey the rules,then it is free will and their choice. But if they just operate on the idea that the book told me to do this, so I do, I can't see that as free will at all, because they are unaware of other options outside and probably are unaware of what choice and options means. How can you have free will if you don't even know what it is? Blindly following someone's rules and orders without a second thought isn't excercising free will.
But it may just be my thoughts and ramblings. I just simply wish for people to try to be open minded. Just cause they don't follow your religion doesn't make them evil. Things aren't black and white, no matter how some religions paints it to be. Not trying to bash anyone who is religious here, but just about every religious person I've met all wanna conform me, and I don't think I have met much balanced religious, understanding and open minded people. Hell my mom believes if I comform to Christianity I would become a "nicer" person. (Meaning meek and mild, cute and gentle, Melanie Hamilton character. Hell no, I much rather be Scarlett in terms of her passion and go getter.) It gets me that so many people believe that religion will fix people, when it probably will end up doing the opposite. If they can't accept me for who I am, then its their problem. I was in religious schools for a long while and was pretty ignorant and narrow minded untill I went to the more hardcore ones where they ban Harry Potter books. The horrible side of religion reared its head and I sworn to never join any religious groups and just have faith in others I care for, the world and myself.

Well I just hope before they make any decisions, they should see both sides of the issue or situation, and not just what their religion said. Be aware, then decide. That's all I'm asking.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. ![]() { :: ~ Air - the 1000th Summer ~ :: } :: That sea went on forever, into the blue distance :: * That road went on forever, continuing straight ahead * ~ : Summer comes again, shining silver : ~ : When I close my eyes, suddenly I can see that day's blue sky : |
