Interesting passion, being what I'm gathering is passionate against Catholocism...Could you give a reason for your passion?

And Birdy, behavior's your passion? Now that's a very intriguing thing...I've never thought much about it...

Yep, against. I suppose I have lots of reasons. But the main one would probably be the incredible hypocrisy. I endure it every day, I take religion courses nearly every day of the week except one, and I even go to mass on all the holy days of obligation, so I'm anything but uniformed.

Hmmm...Then maybe liberalism's one of my passions...

Cathexis, if teaching is one of your passions, is that something you would like to do with your life? Basically, my friends, how does your passion fit in with your goal(s) for life--what you want to make out of it, what you're doing now, and what you will do once you get to that point where you can do it?

Oh poor you. Every day? Why is life so cruel?

Thank you for reafirming my faith, or rather distaste, towards the opposite of Catholiscm.

What bait? I didn't bait anyone. You simply made a spam post and tried to blame it on me.

I was responding to a "passion". Even though the "passion" clearly violates one of the rules of STV. I thought we had a "If you have nothing nice to say, then don't say it" rule. Neither posts seemed nice.

I at least contributed by saying what my passion was. You on the other hand did no such thing and spammed. Nice try.

Well.. Since I was like 16/17 and I did an education to learn to deal with people with all kinds of difficulties and handicaps, I started to get interested in it.
My mom is a social worker, so I heard a lot about her clients at home (no names). Now I'm getting my bachelors in Social work, I get even more interested.

It's sometimes so obvious why people behave the way they do, and I just like to study it. Like programs about raising children (supernanny or something) is so cool to watch, to see what the parents do, that has so much effect on the children. I love that. I just love analyzing people, in generel, I guess

My boyfriend thinks it's annoying sometimes, but it's who I am. I just looove doing that.

Does this make it clearer for you, or is it still weird?

Yeah, it is rather bad, I must admit. Thanks for caring. And for some reason or another, I'm quite sure you wouldn't want to go to a school that supports Atheism, and tells you to be Atheist, day in, and day out. No?

I take it you are going to this school because you HAVE to. Otherwise, why suffer through it?

So yes, if I HAD to go to an all athiest school that preached athiesm, then I would regurgitate the nonsense that they force on me and graduate with the best possible grades that I can. I have to suffer through a Liberal college in Dallas. Trust me, its a nightmare to have to hear the pro-commie talk, day in, day out. But I "suffer" through it. Why? Because when I graduate, I'll be able to get a good job and support myself. Thats how life works. Sometimes we have to suffer through the bad, to get to the good.

I am sorry that you have to learn about the "Evils" of the religion me and millions of others have decided to dedicate ourselves to. I guess all of us are evil.

I think you get my initial point. Also, I don't think you truly understand my religion or you wouldn't look at it in such distaste.

Yep, I have to go, but it's all good. Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer? Something like that.

I'm not soooo sure what you mean by that entire second paragraph. I don't go around getting bad grades because I hate the school or the religion.

I don't recall saying that it's an "evil" religion either. But if you want to interpret everything I've said in such a way, then congratulations, you've succeeded admirably.

I do understand, as I've said before. And that's the reason I don't care for the religion. I don't have anything against Catholics, most of my friends are obviously Catholic. It's simply the institution.

Anyway, this will be the last post on the subject from me, it's drifted off topic.

Ugh. Your entire post, minus the first sentence made no sense. You didn't understand anything I said. It wasn't even that complicated...

On topic, I think I also have a passion for languages. I wish I could learn a lot more languages that I know already.
