well, you do think too much. and I once had a SHRINK tell me that wasn't a good thing- but I think she's wrong. We are the philosophers of the modern age. Someone's gotta do it, why not the crackpot teenagers that really have no clue about anything?
I didn't decide that christianity wasn't for me because of politics, or because it had a hard time accepting what I thought.
It was because of people like the girl that approached you, and your choir director. Because of people that would look at me and listen to my opinions and decide that they weren't good enough for THEIR God.
My God is the same as yours, and theirs, and the God I spoke to every night as a child. Jesus, Zeus, The almighty, The Lord, The shepherd. Whatever. The Goddess. Do you really think God has a gender?
It doesn't matter what book you take it from, or building you choose to sit in. It doesn't matter what you call your God. It matters that you HAVE God. And anyone that doesn't accept that can shove it.

interesting. i was actually in gospel choir my second semester, though not a christian - i just liked to sing, and a friend was doing it with me (though she later dropped it). anyway, i had a similar experience, and it left me suuper confused. i mean, where i'm at is.. i consider myself a very spiritual person, not so religious.. i suppose i could be 'classified' as a pantheist - who believes god is everything.. kind of the whole idea that everything is made up of matter and energy, and everything in the universe is interconnected, that sort of thing.. but, i don't know.. i feel like religion and spirituality is not something that can be forced upon a person - i would argue it's even detrimental to the individual. i think you take the bits and pieces you like, and make it your own, make your own discoveries and conclusions, using other's ideas as guides if you please. that's what's so beautiful about it - the fact that we can have so many diverse beliefs and ideas about life/the afterlife/god/the universe, all that wonderful stuff. i
