Oh, and +1 for mention of 1984/doublethink.

Well, I really only talked to my mom, because she's the religious one; and I think she knows I'm fairly sure, as I said something along the lines of, "Religion has held humanity back several times." Probably wasn't very wise to say that right then. I did drop hints, but those didn't work very well. She thought I was just being lazy.
Oh, and thank you for my first 'kudos'. Smile I read the book 1984 and loved it; it manages to be relevant, no matter the era, and you can draw so many parallels, and it's just very well-written...
I just love books.-focus, girl-
Just a quick question: How does the kudos system work?

I believe, at least for the time being, you are stuck playing the game. It may be better than upsetting Mom who can make your life miserable. Praying is easy, just bow your head and think of where you would rather be. Hopefully you do not get stuck in a catholic school.
Thanks.
She's been pretty much the same, a little chillier, but that's all.
I kind of want to go to this catholic school, as it has a really good art program and such, but it's catholic...
I'll probably just deal with it. ~shrug~
Thanks. Smile
