It's been 3 years since I was at SDSU full time. I remember being really annoyed all day and hating my classes. I have since changed my major twice (unofficially, too. I really should get on changing it for real), taken a bunch of community college classes, and have now done what I should've done a long time ago, which was study what I really like. So it's official, I'm a television, film and new media major. I'm taking 2 prerequisite classes for that major, where I will watch movies and stuff like that, which will be awesome. And I'm also taking bowling and a Jewish Studies class (and a writing class, but fuck that one, it's stupid). Bowling is awesome, that was to be expected. And Jewish Studies is kind of a wild card. I am one of 8 students in it, at least that's how many were in it our first class session. And the teacher is really cool. However, I took it kind of expecting an easy A class, but we already have a lot of reading, and the syllabus says we have to eventually write a 10-page paper. So I'm thinking it won't be as easy as I thought. But it did give me something to think about.
There are (according to what I remember my professor saying) about 18 million Jews in the world. That is not a lot of people relative to the world population. Yet, they are all over media because they're all funny. And I've come to the conclusion that they just might be chosen by God to do His work. Just a sidenote, "Israelite," means "soldier of God." That's badass. Jews are ballers.
Christians have already made a very strong case to not be ballers. I am walking from my car to my first class today and hear some douche bag playing his guitar and singing. I literally thought, "Oh Jesus, this sounds like some gay Christian worship song." And sure enough, it was some Christian douche bag singing while this other guy handed out a thing for a Christian fraternity.
AND THEN
I was approached twice to be invited to a Bible reading at 1:15 today. I know they're going to approach me, they have that zealous look on their faces, looking around, like, "Alright, who next? This guy, who is clearly ignoring me. But I'll just be super friendly and maybe he'll come talk about the Bible!"
Hey, I don't like people handing shit out to me when I'm clearly uninterested. But when you try and get me to come to a religious meeting twice, I'm gonna be really turned off. Christians, you have enough people to talk about Jesus with, chill with the talking to strangers shit. And don't put your shitty music so readily out into the world, people will think you're a kumbaya fag.
