Labels Shouldn't Matter.
I am a 13 year old girl who believes in peace and love. No, I'm not a hippie. I myself am agnostic. Agnosticism is the belief that "God" is unknown, or that human knowledge is limited to experience. A.K.A- Maybe there is a God, but how would anyone know that? It's impossible to know that there is. I don't believe in miracles, but I do believe thing happen for a reason. I don't believe in the whole "Forgive and Forget" thing, because I'll forgive someone, but I'll never forget it. I don't believe in the "Noah's Ark" story, because "God" doesn't play favorites, right?
The entire Bible is a total contradiction. I can point out so many things that are so incredibly illogical that I just wanna slap every "Christian" I meet. Saying you're a Christian, because you believe in God is like saying I'm Rachel Ray, because I can boil water. It's just stupid! Pure idiocy! All of it! I bet none of them ever stopped to actually try to interpret the Bible. A few mistakes are: 1) Adam and Eve. In the Bible it says incest is a sin. Adam and Eve only had 3 sons. Who did they impregnate to make more children. The only women there; Eve. That's incest! 2) Jesus died on the cross for your sins. What was the point if God was gonna forgive them anyways? He basically murdered his son, to then change his mind. 3) God killed his son, which is the 6th Commandment in the Bible. "Thou shall not kill." 4) "All are created equal." That's a lie. The Bible was clearly written from a man's point of view. In the Bible it translates to 'Men work, while women take care of the home and children." You're not equal if you don't think the same, look the same, and have the same things. No one is, nor will ever be "equal."
My point is, why label yourself by what you believe in? Why label your self "Popular" because you're a cheerleader, or a football star? Be yourself and forget about others.
They say you can't love someone else, unless you love yourself first. Therefore, my point is love who you are and care for your mind, not your looks. Labels shouldn't matter.
