I got a cross for christmas...
#22
RE: I got a cross for christmas...
Eilonnwy, thats how I feel too! I think crosses are really pretty, and I used to wear them all the time, especially the one I got that was my grandmothers after she died. Since it had very little significance to me, although at the time I was agnostic and not really an atheist, I wore it because it reminded me of my grandmother. I don't wear it anymore because living with my aunt, I don't want her to get the wrong idea that I've 'converted'. I'm honestly not offensive to her, besides maybe rolling my eyes once in a while because she talks about god all the time, tries to argue with me about evolution, etc. It's rediculous because she doesnt want an intelligent conversation and isnt interested in broadening her herizons. She accuses me because of being very closeminded because I dismiss all religion, but that doesnt mean I like to stop learning about them... I just don't believe in the supernatural. I don't see her trying to learn about other religions or possibly converting, so why is it different? because i believe in nothing? I honestly couldnt believe she gave it to me as a gift and I wish I could stand up for myself more because when it comes to religion shes a huge bully to me. I agree that if she didnt know I was an atheist, I wouldnt of made a fuss at all.

Also, thank you for all your suggestions guys, they are dually noted :p
