What I don't like about Christianity is not necessarily the fakeness of it. All religions and beliefs have their share of imagination. It's the way it has been twisted around. The way I see it, Jesus came up and said "be nice, help out how you can, don't worry about material gain and don't waste your energy hating others, and you will feel much better and find peace and be a better person and you will die happy" and then the Church came up and said "do everything we say, be what we want you to be, give us all your money and material gain and don't you DARE disobey or being different or you're gonna FUCKING BURN IN HELL!" Quite a difference in message there.
That's what I was trying to say! Yes! You said it better than I could have. :)
I have to agree. I like my own opinion and whenever I try to talk to my mom, she'll either fake interest or look at my weird and basically tell me I'm wrong. O_o
Ah, it's okay about the long comment! I enjoyed it! :D
