If I do grow up I will Hopefully keep some perspective and remember how fun it was when I was young to **** **** up for no reason. Like when I got my mailbox bashed. I was mad but thought to myself "yeeaaaa karma probably had that one teed up for a while."
Lighten up Aggies, if you read some bible versus maybe you would have the emotional tools to deal with such tragedy in your life!!
I've read some bible "versus." Reading the bible fairly diligently and casually studying some of the world's other religions, past and present, is why I'm an atheist today. Becoming one has filled my emotional toolbox with plenty of reality to deal with the tragedies in my long life. I've had some serious ones. Muddy roads wouldn't crack my Top 100.
But the unavoidable heartaches are why people my age have so little patience for the totally unnecessary, like having their only road to town torn up by mindless teenagers who think making public roads next to impassable is funny.
Hopefully the antics you write about on the board are not indicative of your attempts to live a Christ-like life. As for lightening up, I'm not mad at you. I know teenagers. I have three kids; the youngest is 25. I teach college freshman-level psych once in a while for grins. I have an idea of the difference between mature and immature thinking. You expressed your thoughts; I'm expressing mine.
Interesting that you would claim victimhood to karma in one sentence and suggest the bible as a heal-all in the next. You do know atheists often outscore Christians on those easy, online, 20-question quizzes like "How Well Do You Know Your Bible?", don't you? The atheists I know have all studied the bible significantly. It's not a decision to be made lightly.
