god?

i recently got into a discussion on twitter about god. it's strange when you tell someone you do not believe in a god. it's like... what i assume coming out of the closet feels like. you get blank stares, and people instantly pass a judgement against you. it doesn't matter how long you've known the person you profess your beliefs, or rather, non beliefs to, in that second that they know your a "non believer" you become a heathen, a savage, a poor soul. it's like you no longer walk fully upright, drag knuckles, and eat raw flesh.

I consider myself to be pretty "tolerant" (i don't really like this word because it always sounds negative) I'm a black no religion having girl, raised by white pentecostal parents. my best friends consist of a christian, a gay ex-catholic, and whatever B is. I won't sit here and say that i don't see colors and i don't label people, because that would be a lie. and anyone who says they don't is a liar, what is will say is that i don't care. i don't care about religion, or sexual orientation, or gender, or race. i don't care if you're a vegan... i don't understand it but that doesn't affect my life. My parents love jesus, i don't understand it, but i love them regardless.

at the end of the day the only thing that matters is that you're a good person, and a good friend. and everything else fuck it.
