Just to clarify: I firmly believe in freedom of religion, and I respect the beliefs of my religious friends. It's not for me, but if it's for you, then that's wonderful. When I say I'm frustrated with religion, it's because I'm annoyed and disheartened by the role religion has been playing in American politics. My reactions run from depressed to angry to frightened to annoyed, and so sometimes (lately) I've really wanted to express my thoughts. I've held back, though, because I don't want any of my Christian friends to feel that I'm picking on them or their religion.
It's late and I'm afraid I'm not making sense, so I'll log off now. ^^;
Just know that we are definitely friends and I want to keep it that way. I love you!
