I find that violently lashing out at random tends to keep people's minds preoccupied with something other than the fate of my eternal soul.

Become a "problem teenager." Give them something else to worry about, to get their mind off converting you.

Go Goth. Get a piercing. Get a tattoo. Kick the neighbor's dog. Develop a drinking problem. Put powdered sugar on your nostrils when you come home. Burn a cross in someone's lawn.


But by all means, have fun while you're doing it. And stay safe!


YES...absolutely agree apophenia.....

And this is a great lesson for all you youngsters....

Whenever you go to burn a cross...

SAFETY FIRST....ALWAYS!!!!!
