have you ever been in a similar situation?
today my friend and i were hanging out in the mall. then we were leaving a store. and these 2 ladies walked up to us and they're like: Ladies:"can we talk to you for a minute?" Me + friend:"ummmm okay?" (we thought they needed directions) (both ladies grab each of us) Lady: So are you Christian? Me: No, but my dad is. Lady: Oh im so happy for you that your dad is Me: *nods + smiles because in awkward situation* Lady: Have you attended church? Me: Yes. Lady: And how do you feel about it? Me: well i'm happy for them since they're so happy to be with God? Lady: Yes because they're connected to Him. don't you want to be connected? Me: well im not religious so it doesnt affect me. Lady: Well are you in school? Me: yup Lady: When you need help in homework. who do you ask for help? Me: My friends and mom Lady: No of course not, God does because he guides you, he leads you. Me: o.....k *smiles* Lady: Come to our church we have a church we rented a room out in a hotel. Me: that's good for you ![]() Lady: you should come this sunday. what is your phone number? so i can remind you. Me: My mommy doesnt want me to give out phone numbers Lady: Oh i understand, here i'll give you my phonenumber. Me: ummm k Lady: If you ever have any questions about God please phone me and i'll drive you out for lunch Me: uhhhh k..... ![]() Lady: So you gonna come tomorrow? Me: umm i can ask my mom to drive maybe? but i doubt it. Lady: no no dont ask your mom i'll drive you. where do you live? Me: uhhhh... quite a whiles away from here. Lady: o well my name is Connie Me: that's great. Lady: what is your name? Me: ummm i have to go pee now. talk to you tomorrow. then i go to my friend and the other lady Lady: did you know that you're gonna die! Friend: ... Lady: because you're not religious! did you know Jesus died for us? you have to believe in him! Friend: ... Lady: you gonna die! then i grab my friend and we walk away. im not religious and i don't think i'll ever will be. but i find it awkward when religious people especially christians. (no offense) to that. its kinda weird. you know what i mean? its kinda like they're forcing you in a nice way. that's why i call it Passive Agressive. also during the summer this guy walked up to my friend and asked: Guy: Are you Muslim? Friend: yes. Guy: o that's bad. can you read arabic? Friend: yes Guy: here's the Holy Bible in arabic. *man walks away* i find it rude. ![]() |

um, please don't generalize that all christians are like that. in fact, we have no right to force anyone into our religion. she's probably just happy about where she is in her life because of christianity and wants to share that with others. perhaps it's not the right approach, but her intentions are all good.
