TSR Christian Society

I really wish I knew the answer to that. Perhaps you should try and tell this person that they've upset you? Sometimes a good honest conversation is the best way forward.

My inbox is open if you need it.

Prayers said for the prayer requests

Had such a crazy day today. Went to do some care work at a nursing home today but some of the residents were really helpless. Seeing a lot of these people was mega humbling and I felt God really wanted to break my heart for these people. I felt quite helpless at times as even though you try to make a lot of these people comfortable, they were often not very comfortable or even living much of a life. I felt like an idiot complaining about achy feet after a days work, when some of these people were bedridden. I met one of the nicest old ladies (turning 100 in a few weeks ) I've ever met though as well, who was coincidentally a Christian. She really enjoyed chatting to me about her faith through her long life and I felt I brightened up a lot of their days by doing so helping and listening. That was one good thing that came out from the day; in getting to see the people and sympathize, I was able to talk to them honestly. Out of breaking my heart, there came a lot of care and I really did enjoy making some of them smile - they seem to love young people! But yes overall, whilst it started out quite shaky, the day got better and did definitely open my eyes up.

Good on you for doing such a worthwhile thing. I wouldn't have the patience to do that

Congrats on your modship btw :jebus:

Not only are there a lot of medic mods, but quite a few Christian mods now too

I don't know about you guys, but reading through a lot of posts which mention Christianity in the last few months on TSR has really pissed me off.

Apparently its super racist to attack any religion unless, of course, it is Christianity. Then out come the militant anti-christians (like to think of themselves as atheists but would never attack any other religion) and Christianity or Christians get bashed simply for believing in the most popular religion in the western world.

Stop attacking my religion!!!


/rant.

I feel surrounded by mods.

(On a side note: GEG - I just actually read your sig and now I have a medley of Owl City songs in my head!)

And at least one pagan with Christian sympathies.

Thanks for all your help

The problem is, I can't get away from this self-centered, self-despicable view I possess. Even though I understand that appearance, personality, grades should not matter, they do to me. Despite my attempts to ignore this, and be happy for what I am, I'm not. I sometimes wish I were other people, simply because my life is so difficult at the moment. The worries about bi-polar, grades, friendship, social and romantic issues have hit me really hard. It's times like this when I begin to question why anybody in mankind would deserve such things, and how even worse things can be going on in the world. Also despite I know this is all God's plan, why is there so much suffering in the world? The Lord certainly does move in mysterious ways! I just don't really have anybody to talk to in person. My mum doesn't believe me when I say I think I may be bi-polar, and claims that depression is normal (even though I haven't told her that in the past I've considered suicide apart from one occasion), and I don't want to discuss love or social issues with my parents. They are there for me, and they're the best parents I could have, but I'm just so unhappy at the moment. And going back to suicide, I've thought about it again recently, however I came to the conclusion that I will not die until I achieve my dreams. Unfortunately I have really high aims, so it's going to be one tough journey.

Once again thanks for your help

It's disheartening at times too. There was this one gentleman who was quite conserved; he was reluctant to get involved in anything and barely ate or drank! I asked one of the nurses why he didn't want to talk or eat and they said that he had suffered a stroke. Before his stroke, he was able to drive, eat and cleanse himself without any assistance, in actual fact, she said he was as independent as you can get. He had so much pride in his independence that when it was stripped off him, he felt like there isn't much left living for.

Had such a crazy day today.

I feel surrounded by mods.

And at least one pagan with Christian sympathies.

And every single mod is lovely

How does that work?

I'm not a mod, just a FA

I feel quite drawn to Roman Catholicism and respect a lot of Christian teachings, and even believe in God, in a manner of speaking.

I just also happen to believe in various other deities as well.

I was a Taoist before a Christian! (Tao/Dao...although I think Daoist looks more natural as a word...)

So today's diagnosis: schizoaffective disorder
