when people preach to you Options

[chococat15]

does it annoy you when you say something that someone doesn't like and they preach to you about why it's bad? i said the word "hate" the other day, and this girl was like, " hating is bad. don't say that. that means the same thing as saying you want to kill someone or cause harm to them." ugh. we were in school and the teachers are all like, "don't talk about religion or preach in school." do people ever preach to you?

[Paradox of Life]

People always preach to me. My school is 99% Christian. There's one Jew in the whole school. And around 3 Atheists. Anyone that doesn't join in their religious practices (our school has been sued for having mandatory Christian assemblies) is a victim of preaching. I am preached to through my Xanga, in real life, pretty much everywhere and mostly because I refuse to take a religion (especially Christanity). How do I respond to it? If I'm in a good mood, I'll try to change the subject, ignore them, or ask them to stop talking to me. If I'm in a bad mood, I'll verbally and possibly physically maim them. Preaching without consent sucks, but there are those little hobos out there that have nothing better to do but try to 'spread their all-knowingness' to the world, and you just have to ignore them...
