So today I was having a discussion with a friend that I tried to explain was not really something you should talk about over an Instant Message, since you can't tell someones tone of voice, or meaning behind the words but he insisted so I had the conversation anyways. Lets see... last time I checked I had the right to have my own opinions about religion, am I right?? OK so I made a joke about being a 'good boy' in the Church, this is the reaction I got back..
"so only good people are in the church, and so everyone else is bad? you Mormons"
um... oh you thought I meant you aren't a good boy because you don't go to church, No actually that was a joke, hence the sarcasm and the reason I didn't want to have this conversation on IM after I explained this to him he came back with
" i am more spiritual than most Mormons i know
i pray, meditate, and do charity work far beyond 99% of Mormons i know
sorry i don't mean to harp on you, i just though you were much better and more intelligent than to make rash generalizations and assumptions about the "gentiles" "
I was so frustrated that he would not even try to think that maybe I really wasn't trying to judge him and I simply made a joke that I finally apologized that I was sorry that he took my joke as a judgement but I didn't mean to offend him by it. And then I got off line. Well I guess I'm just the same as the rest of the damn Mormons going around judging every one and hating on people cus they don't believe the same things I do. Hmm... but I think by his comment of "you Mormons" would make him the one making judgements and not me... am I right??
there is my vent session for the day... coming later the cute little centipede that I found at work today :)
