"i just want to be not what i am today.
i just want to be better than my friends might say.
i just want a small part in your passion play."
William Fitzsimmons himself said (about Passion Play ) “This song is about being a better person”. Totally fits in with my last blog entry (although, it is probably faith-related. Fail)
This is going to sound wrong. And this will probably offend other people, but I need an outlet.
I’m tired of having catholic/christian friends. I’m tired of them speaking about god, and how blessed they are, and how they pray and how they worship.
I’m tired of them trying to make me feel, how they feel about god, and about their religion. Because I won’t feel that way. Ever. At least with that religion.
I’m tired of people trying to talk about god to make me change for the better. I know I can complain, and be a bitch — I’ve had my fair share of playing the latter. I’m not saying I’m NOT going to change. I’m just saying that YOUR faith ISN’T helping me change into a better person. Because I don’t get your faith. And I don’t relate at all. So stop trying to shove your prayers, your confessions, your blessings my way, so direct it to some other area where it is useful. Because I can’t stand it any more. The fact that you’re complaining about my lack of faith makes me lose faith in the god you believe in.
I’ve struggled to become a christian, a catholic my whole life. And I’ve finally come to the realization, that I’m not (either religion). I’m not it. Nope. Hmm mm. None.
And since when was it necessary to believe in a religion to be a good person? Isn’t trying to be good to everyone at all times, enough? Some people need to believe in a religion or a god in order to be a better person. I would hope I wouldn’t need that to change.
