Religion?

Time for another one of my fun rants... I am so sick and tired of people shoveling religion on me. I'm not religious and honestly never have been. 


I believe in God. I just don't feel like I belong to any church/creed. I've been to several evangelical churches over the years, and it always felt like I was chased out with a broomstick and pitchforks. I made friends who then turned on me and treated me like a subhuman for some reason. I've come to discover that people at a church are pretty much some of the fakest, most hurtful people you'll ever meet. It just doesn't make sense. 


If I dare to question religion, or even God, my friends give me crap about it and act like I'm a horrible person. I can't help that I wonder about these things. My family is religious, but they are also some of the most judgmental, cliquish people I know. I love them, but it's true. There's ALWAYS drama of some sort and they judge everyone different than them. 


I've found that churchgoers are all pretty much like that. The thing is, I can't even talk to my parents about it. If I even mention it, I'm evil and need to go to church more. This vicious cycle has made me anticipate leaving the co-op and not having to go, except on Christmas and Easter. I just feel like there's so many more things to do in life than sit in church and be judged. 


The clock is ticking... I'm so tired of these cliquey church people. But, I'm still hoping to be proven wrong about them and actually find a friend at a church who doesn't keep tabs and judge. 


Until next time....
