Please Don't Preach

This sounds like my stuff, we must be on the same wavelength LOL. Nice write :) 5/5

I'd keep it, if it is showing how you feel. I'm sorry I preached, it's just something I think everyone should be able to experiance, but I guess nonbelief is your choice. I just... well, I hope you will open your mind and go to a church just to see... I think you'll find interesting things. Anyway, sorry if I laid it on too thick... I grew up in a church, I guess that's why it's easy for me, but understand it's just as hard to preach as it is to recieve preaching. Thanks for listening,

i agree with kelly. i have nothing against any religions. i'm fine with people having something to believe in and i think it's great when they do. sometimes it'd be easier if i did have a religion, but i don't. all the preaching and stuff isn't going to change that. i guess this poem didn't get across the point i was going for. perhaps i'll just delete it some time because so far all it's done is brought more preaching. i guess no one can really understand what it feels like unless it happens to them. kelly knows what it feels like cuz its happened to her, but people who do have religions are never going to know. i understand you want the best for me, wutever you think it may be, but preaching to me doesn't help. it gets me depressed. it makes me realize that people really can't accept differences in this world. i'm still debating whether to keep this poem on here or not. i'll give it a bit and see how things turn out.

yeah, i know how you feel emma.... my dad is always trying to force me into being a christian and believing in god and all that..... but the more he tries the more i dont believe (i think you know that feeling too). I mean, without all the preasure, itd be easier to believe in something like that. Maybe ive just sat through enough religious discusions with my mom and brothers to have enough to doubt ther is a god. (those are extremely interesting convos.. i could listen to them four hours) but anyway.... just thought id post my opinion.

And dont get me wrong, i have no problem with other people and their religions. But ill respect your religion if you can respect mine. Thats all it comes down to... respect.

Aww, Emma, wow, girl. This was deep, you know? Trust me, I know it can be hard to accept all the preaching, but, hon, wouldn't you rather live like there was a God and find out that there wasn't or live like there wasn't a God and find out there is? And, science is NOT seperate from the subject of Creationism. So many people think that the two are completely different, but really they arn't. They can walk hand in hand, if we were just not to blind to see it. Saying that the entire world came from one explosion is fine and all... but how did the explosion happen? By gas compulsion, right? So where did that pressure come from? Everything could not have happened out of nothing. It's just not plausible, really. Something... someONE had to help, give a little push. I know you don't need the preaching, but girl, I'd rather see you in Heaven than in hell.. Do you believe that everything your History book says is true? Everything that your science book says is true? So why should we doubt the Bible? Historians of those times wrote that through God... I don't see where your lack of trust comes from. Well, I'm sorry if I, you know, offended or anything, I really didn't mean to... But Zac is right, this is out of love. We just want you to see the light, girlie. Well, I'm here to talk if you ever need me, ok? Great poem, by the way, you really expressed your emotions.
