If I were to follow in my dad's side of the family's religious tradition, I'd be Catholic. Also, I went to a Catholic church for several years growing up. It's basically a bunch of standing, sitting, and singing. I don't think I heard much of anything from the Bible. After awhile, during ceremony, we'd have "Holy" Water thrown on us, have a sip of wine, and eat little crackers. There was a funny moment when my dad got a lot of "Holy" Water thrown on him, and he said, "Give me a fuckin' shower next time," as loud as he could. I was (at the time) sort of embarrassed. I felt like his voice echoed throughout the church. Now it's just funny.

But, yeah, Catholic churches are different. After that my step mom started taking us to a Non-denominational church. For the three years I went to that church, it was like the youth pastor started with John and ended with John. Then we played Bible games, and stuff. If there is a Christian God, He definitely didn't want me to get any sort of useful information from a church.

As for the politics. I hear so many political bands, like, Rage Against The Machine, who just sound like they're whining all the time, and for a long time my lyrics started to sound like that. So, instead of whining and complaining, do something about it, and to the stupid things you can't quite control, but you feel are unjust, make fun of it... mock it. Someone will hear you if you present it right.

As for my friend. He wants to get a job in realestate, but doesn't that take a lot of money?
