One of the huge misunderstandings the world has about Christianity is that you have to give up life's pleasures to be a Christian. (Edited

i'd just like to start off this one with the following: mmm teenage girl. and with that out of the way;
if you put that whole post together, you are a genius. i have never looked at it that way and i thank you for giving me something new to think about. if not, i'd like the name of the author and book you're plagiarizing so i can read it. you've touched upon something that i really despise about christianity is the feeling that whatever you're fighting must be evil, because you're fighting for good. it's too big of an issue to get into here, so i'll just leave it at that.
my grandmother lent me the purpose driven life, i haven't gotten around to it yet.. i have a couple other books i need to read first. funnily enough quite probably a couple of the most unchristian books you could read, but that's neither here nor there. as for cs lewis i have never read his "real" books, i read all the lion witch and the wardrobe series when i was really really young but i don't think that counts.
as for the fighting against evil, it's not even worth bringing up, i've been so fed up with talking about all this deep crap lately i'm just not interested any more, but i feel like i owe you responses since you were kind enough to respond to me.

I like purpose driven life, but i believe its geared more for a Christian whose wondering "What's the purpose of my life?". If you dont mind your grandmother buying you these kind of books, you might prefer something by C.S. Lewis, or you could suggest some other topic you've been wondering about.
I think i know where you're coming from, about being fed up with all this "deep crap". I've been having discussions with a number of atheists and agnostics, and its making my mind weary. Its fun when it’s a discussion and we understand each-other, but there are others who have already judged me and their view of me is twisting what they read, thinking I’m insulting them and etc. But hey, what don’t kill you…
