Not to sound persumptusouse, but calling out Preacher Boy on 'religion' is more....Fascinating, then it probably should be.
PB likes to explain how he felt like the only Christian in the school, and yet he never bothered to actualy act like one and go searching.
He reads the Bible every day, goes to Church every Sunday, and preaches about the spirit and philosophy, and yet he doesn't understand forgiveness.
PB is PB for a reason you know. He wasn't always that way. He used to be more of a.....well, regualar guy. And just like a regular guy, he did some bad stuff, stuff he shouldn't have done, but he did. And there's no going back.
Well, PB knows he's religiouse, I"m not going to aruge that. And PB knows the Bible far more then I do, and yet I also know that you can't speak of being 'worse' the others becuase of your mistakes and truly understand forgiveness.
PB is a very faithful follower, but he sucks at fishing.
Fishing for men, that is. Which is what we are all called to do. Its not that he dosn't have the mannorisms of a Christian, its not that he's hypocretical, but he's got two major problems.
1. He assumes far too much, and most of its wrong.
2. If he does break through, its almost intirly impossible to relate to him.
The latter I learned on my own. The first being I felt like a complete screw up around him until I got to know him, and he told me some of his secrets, and then he took it upon himself to make himself look like the worse person on the planet.
Making me feel like everything I had ever felt bad about doing was stupid and silly.
I don't think you can measure our wrong doings against one another, but the differnce between PB and I, even though we have both grown and changed for the better, is this.
I know I truly am I horrible person, but that I am still loved by God, and I am forgive by him, which gives me the power to humble myself enough to know that I can relate to other through my experences, yet still know that I am a good person.
PB knows that he is a horrible person, and he knows God has forgiven him, and yet he continues to act as though he is the one bad apple amoung men.
This isolates him, and fills him with what I consider to be faulse consences of man.
Perhaps PB will soon realize that that book he carries around about that guy who died is for everyone, including him.
