This is who I am.
I'm super pissed, so that means I'm going on a super long rant about multiple things.

First, which has always been a problem for me, religion. Yes, I'm Pagan. THat just means my religion is not Christianity, Judaism, or Islamic. I practice a religion known as Wicca. Now, most people already know that I practice this religion and they respect my decision, yet they still don't respect my religion. Does that make sense? Anyway, one of my close friends used to be Pagan, but not any more. Part of the reason why she's Christian now is because of fear, or at least, that's what I think. Her town is super religious and has no tolerance for Paganism. That just means they are ignorant dumb-asses. Why can't people take religion out of public lives. Your religion should be a private matter and it shouldn't dictate friendship, family, or any other relationship. Now, here's another thing, today I was on the phone with one of my other friends who just got back from Christian camp. We discussed some things, and I told her my views on Christianity. She told some of her 'campmates' that she had a Pagan friend, me of course, and I was fine with that. Then I asked her if her mom new I was Pagan. Now, her mother and I have had issues in the past concerning my beliefs, so I was curious as to what she would think of me if she knew I was Wiccan. My friend goes downstairs and asks her mother if she knew what religion I practice. She said no, and immediately said she hoped I wasn't Wiccan. Figures.... She's so ignorant. She doesn't even know what Wicca is! My friend proceeds to tell her that I am Pagan, because she didn't know that Paganism is a group of many different religions. Her mother asked what I worshipped and what not and said that she was worried about me because we all know that if you don't practice Christianity, we all go to Hell.... I'm not going to Hell because I don't believe in Hell! It's not real and neither is Heaven in my opinion. I strictly believe in reincarnation. You know, America is filled with so much hypocrisy it makes me sick. In this ******** of country we live in, we're supposed to have freedom of religion. Bullshit. I'm being judged every day of my life for what I believe in. People don't even know who I am, but as soon as they find out I'm Wiccan, they freak out. As of this day, I will no longer tolerate anyone's ignorant judgement. I'm done with that.

On to the second subject. Earlier this week I told people I was leaving this site and in order for me to stay, they would have to post 40 comments on my journal by 6 on Wednesday. I figured I would have no problem reaching that goal, but yet, people failed to meet my standards. I have 66 friends on here, yet only approximately 7 people commented repeatedly. How ******** up is that. It makes me sick to know that I call these people my friends.

On to the last subject. I have lost all respect for my mother and her boyfriend. They make me sick. They are more immature that any 11 year old I've ever met and that's a pretty bold statement. Who knew that 40 and 50 year olds were so pathetic?


And I don't think I am who you want me to be
I'm sorry it took you this long just to see
That I'm rolling and rolling around in my mind

I hung you on a limb
Made you bend over
Backwards on a sin
Quit crying on my shoulder
There's nothing left to say
We're beautiful garbage
Throw it all away
Wash you off in the shower

Actions speak louder than words
So don't tell me that you love me now, love me now
Im gagging myself
I'm brushing out the foul taste you left in my mouth
You left in my mouth

Stay, stay, stay! And I completely agree on the religion thing. I haven't even told my parents about my not believing in God anymore, they would totally kill me.

I don't judge on religion, sexual interest, or race.
I believe that if you're Wiccan, that's not a sin.
It's your belief... People can't tell you no different.
As a higher being... - I try to be.
I agree with most of your choices and respect you for them.

Your mother and her boyfriend, that's not my buisness really...

... I personally believe that you could just think of meeting new people who are actually going to care rather or not you leave to take the place of those who hadn't commented or said a word about it.
- The point through my view only: Those who don't care, usually don't admit it.
They got back on their word, their word means nothing. Just find other people to talk to if they'd rather not have anything to do with you... Cause they prove they're not good enough for you.
Trust me... I deal with these conflicts all the time.

mrgreen

Let me clear one thing up on this comment. I was never going to leave Gaia. I just wanted to see how many people would want me to stay or would fight for me to stay. It was as simple as that.
