The church I was in when I was 18 tried limiting what I read, by telling me I couldn't read my vampire, supernatural, romance....anything other than the Bible. I

I dunno.

To me religion seems all about control.

Well thats not all I associate religion with. But it applies in this sense.

[seiresea]

to clarify:

I think this about organized religion.

heh.

trust me, I'm in a similar boat....but all I can say is that at least I kinda stood up for myself this time, when I normally don't

Anyone, no matter what their religion, that tries to limit what another person reads is another form of enforcing one's will upon another; it's another way of restricting a person of being who they are. It's one thing if a parent is doing such to their child for protective reasons. But, in this case, you aren't harming yourself nor anyone else in what you read and enjoy, so what's the reason for another person saying, "You shouldn't read this. It's bad for you"?

*rubs his temples* I need a baseball bat and lighter fluid...

First off, religious bias or not, someone needs a real re-education on just what "goth" exactly is. Second...fuck organized religion

[littlewolfls]

Wait! I found a baseball bat! Onto number 2!

Religion is just for people to believe in... I also agree it's about control... If you choose to believe in such things than you can... I don't think it's right to exclude people or be mad at them for not believing in something that others don't... Life is life... People need to grow up...
