@Ruby: Nah I'm mean! :P Lol
@Totalanimefan: Totally understand. Inability to communicate in a proper way bothers me too, so I get it.
Yeah, we moved around to a lot of different churches throughout my life. I was raised Lutheran but my parents even sent me to Catholic school just to make sure I got "all the god I need" during the week. No wonder I was so rebellious lol. I know Dean because he was in a band (drummer) at our church and they actually made it pretty big, big enough to be on secular radio. So in support of Silverline (the band), my dad basically went to every Minnesota concert he could that they did, and that's how we all became friends. My parents are all for that sort of hive-mind mentality though, call people who vote non-Republican "not real christians" or "devil worshippers," and just move along to another church if one doesn't deliver the exact message they think all christians should believe. It's insane. Sorry to hear you had a rough experience with churches, but on the plus side, it could be worse. I've seen people get "invoices" for what their weekly tithe was supposed to be when they didn't pay the usual amount.
You're fine at explaining yourself, I just had a blonde moment I guess. I seriously have no idea how I misread what you said but clearly I did lol. I get it, some people just aren't very confrontational, and I'm VERY much the opposite. Glad you gave that woman the what-for though :) And hey, you're my friendo, I'll always try to understand and talk things out with you :) Even if we disagree, like I said. I'm not egotistical enough to ever think I'm right about my opinions or beliefs, and I love trying to learn how people see the world if I can.
