My mum is having a panic attack and she says she wants to give our puppy to another home because he is making her worse. I don't know what to do. We haven't even had him for two weeks but I love him so much.

Being cisgendered, white, heterosexual, or Christian doesn't automatically make you a bad person..? Why is there so much oppression in this world today :c

@4dogowner

Where I live, I had the oposite problem. Everyone was Christain, I have my own belief. I believe in spirits, or ghosts. Not the creepy kind, but thats besides the point. I felt left out, I was made fun of. And also if they're being so mean you really should talk to them about it, as scary as it is. It will be okay.

I'm a Christian. My RL friends aren't, and the only other person I've met at this school or anywhere else who I could connect with spiritually graduated two years ago.. I honestly wouldn't mind so much if everyone, even my friends, didn't seem to interpret my being a Christian as their right to be disrespectful and hurtful..

A couple days ago, a few of my friends decided to engage in a full out conversation on how stupid Christians are for things like "making up a guy who created the world, when for all they know it could be a rabbit under the ground!" and laughing about how ridiculous our Holy Book is. While I was sitting right next to them. It seriously started bothering me and I interrupted, letting them know politely that I would really rather them change the subject at least while I was there. I added that I'd appreciate the same respect for my religion as I give to everyone else. I have never once brought up the fact that I don't believe in the religions that others are devoted to, never once commented on the "idiocy" of the aspects of other religions, or made anyone feel small for what they believe. One of my friends opened her mouth as if she was about to bring up some memory to prove my comment about me not disrespecting people to be wrong, but shut her mouth and rolled her eyes when she realized she had nothing to retort. The rest of the day was tense, and she basically ignored me for most of it. This really isn't the first time she has acted like this, and it's beginning to seriously sting.
This is the same friend who I've loyally stood by since <i>fourth grade.</i> The same friend who confessed that she was a lesbian, and received nothing but support from me. I attended our school's LGBT group with her to support her when she asked, until even they treated me like nothing when they found out my religion. When I told her about my issues at school, with bullying and my depression, and asked her if she could attend church with me just so I wouldn't be alone again around the people I've yet to get to know, she immediately blew me off. "Yeah I'm not religious." and changed the subject. I only wanted support, I had told her she wouldn't need to participate or pray or do anything she didn't want to.. She responded the same way, after acting concerned about my depression, when I told her that I wouldn't ever hurt myself, both due to my love for my family and reluctance to hurt them in any way, and my faith in God. My friends are great most of the time, but whenever I barely mention my religion they act horrid and I just feel snubbed..
She isn't the only one either. I wear a witness bracelet, and whenever I explain its meaning to someone who asks(apparently a few people have thought it means "down with God, up with gays" and wanted to share in the enthusiasm) they immediately give me a dirty look and stop talking to me. Cue the avoidance and talking behind my back.

Why in the world does my religion automatically make me a bad person, despite everything I've done that contradicts the horrible stereotypes that have developed? I've done everything I can to be as kind as possible to everyone, to portray the kind of Christian we all should be. I don't push my religion on anyone else or judge those who don't believe in the same faith, yet I'm criticised and made fun of for what I believe in. The strength, faith, and hope I've gained under Christ is hard to continue on with when I'm constantly being torn down by those who should be my supporters, and by people who don't even know me.. I love to learn about other religions, and I think it's enlightening to be friends with people with different beliefs and learn from them, even if I have complete faith in my own beliefs. I kinda just wish everyone else could take on a similar attitude..
I was raised to respect and love everyone, regardless of race, sexuality, appearance, religion, disabilities, or anything else. I was raised never to bully, and to always come to the defense of everyone who needs it. My father, my hero, is the one who taught me and raised me to treat everyone as I would hope to be treated. My father, from the "racist, sexist, homophobic" south. The law enforcement agent who has more than once risked his own life to save that of a stranger, gone towards a flaming car when everyone else fled because not everyone had gotten out. The former Marine who joined not because they are the bullies, but the bully killers. He wanted to defend any countries under attack, whether it be by terrorists or their own government, because that's how he saw the Marines. "All of my babies are healthy and beautiful and perfect. We need to make use of God's gift and everything he gave us by defending anyone who needs it and never letting anyone feel like they are anything less than perfect." That man is the epitome of everything the law enforcement, military, country, and population should be. Good people exist, and that's how I was raised. People don't need to treat people like trash just because their "kind" have done it before.

Yeah, some "Christians" have fouled up the name of our religion by acting on hate instead of love. Yeah, some religions and people have been attacked for no reason other than these "Christians" interpreting them as wrong. But why does that means those people can attack the few people who try to act the way God truly intended? Just because some so-called Christians have been hateful doesn't mean we aren't ever attacked too.. And when people accuse me of lying or begging for attention because I'm a Christian and "Christians don't get bullied/alienated/attacked" man that just hurts. :\
I'd really rather nobody replies things like,"Yeah well that's why you should hide your religion and keep it to yourself when people bring it up." I am not ashamed of my beliefs, and I'm not going to pretend to be someone I'm not.

I'm very sorry if any of this is insulting or offensive to anyone for any reason, I truly just wanted to get this out somewhere.. Again I appreciate anyone who takes the time to read this.


I get this so much, this is pretty much my life.
I am Insanely Christian, but I also support the LGBTO community, and am not afraid to show it, even on cs where it seems no one appreciates it.

All I can say is you have to embrace it, embrace being a christian, and embrace your love to everyone. Show you're not homophobic, show you're not mean and that you don't try to shove your beliefs at everyone.

I know how alone being the only christian in your friend group can make you feel, and I know how hard it is to just walk away and have to be alone, but you have to try. Try to make friends with similar beliefs, and when your friends make fun of you for your religion, let them know that you don't like it. Don't take being bullied, especially not from them. If you tell them to stop hating on your religion, and they wont stop, walk away from them and show them how serious you are about it.

Your dad sounds like a great man, let him be your inspiration to keep moving forward and ignore the haters.

If you want you can pm me whenever, if you're sad, or just feel like talking to another christian, I'm right here.

So my bird kigarumi (its like an animal pajama onsie) arrived and I put it on and sort of sat on my bed and my neighbors came and asked if I wanted to play. I said sure and I went outside bc im uber lazy so i kept on my kigarumi and my neighbor's little sister ran off and told her EXTREMELY bossy and strict dad that I was wearing pajamas and he asked me what I was wearing so I said 'my pajamas' and he told me to go get dressed.

He told me to get dressed. He's not my dad, he can't tell me what to do. And it's not like I was going out to dinner in my slutty bootie short pajamas and a crop top with no bra or underpants. First of all, I am wearing a bra and underpants and normal shirt and short pajamas under my kigarumi. Second, i'm just outside of my house, with my friends and he's telling me what to do. Why should he be able to tell me what to wear when I'm perfectly modest and comfortable?

UGHHH im so pissed.
