That's my man!
So Lincoy, what's the second best religion after Christianity?
Have you always been lame?
78 - I don’t have one word. I like stories, and I’d like to become an amazing storyteller. I just don’t know how to get there or what to do. I’m kinda confused, but I’m at peace at the same time. I guess the set of words to describe myself is the following: “perplexed,” “humbled,” “at peace,” “complete,” “grateful,” “fulfilled,” and this: “What do I need? I’ve already found everything”
79 - it’s hard to define “best,” and I’m most definitely not knowledgeable at all about world religions that have no Christian aspects or similar origins. Out of this small pond, I choose Judaism.
80 - yeah pretty much. I’ve not really been popular or cool any of my life. I do like being able to see things quicker than other people, but it comes with its drawbacks. I know exactly what I should do in every single situation, and I know all my shortcomings very well. I see through all my excuses that I make; nothing about myself will ever be perfect enough for me, etc… The cool thing is I don’t have to be not-lame or perfect to be accepted by someone much more important than me and you.
I think most people stop there and just make excuses for themselves saying “I don’t have to be perfect” but still at least intellectually assent to the idea “I still strive to be perfect.” Very few people admit themselves, genuinely, as bad people. Very few of those who admit themselves as bad people do it, not because it improves their social standing, but in genuine recognition of themself. This also means you recognize you deserve no happiness, no relationships, no joy, no love, no rest, no dignity, no pride, no honor, no respect, not anything except suffering. I don’t mean the casual term suffering, but I mean that suffering that rocks you to your core, that’s ineffably painful, that tears you of your dignity and family and home and rest and everything. Once you see this, and you realize that Someone gave you an offer that means you eventually get a new life than your previous life ever could have been, you stop trying to be good and just be faithful. The real Saint has no good desires, no bad desires, no real temptations, no real suffering, no real relationships, no real possessions, and no real love. The only Thing that He has is found above.

81 look at my response #84
87 - I want to study theology and philosophy. If I study it at a college, I'd prefer at Oxford or Princeton, but I'm never getting into Oxford or Princeton for undergrad because of my GPA. Instead, I'd pursue studying theology at a tier 2 institution and work my tail off so I can get a really good recommendation letter and a really good GPA and a really good GED score and a really good involvement with clubs and a really good everything really, so get into a really good grad school. Of course, I'm not entirely sure if that's what I want to do. I might want to study theology and philosophy at a monastery and become a monk, but I'm not entirely sure. All I know is that I want God more than anything, and maybe the college route could provide me with better academic tools, but it would lack in the spiritual tools needed. This is why I could intern at a monastery for 5 or so years and come back with the right spirit and heart to work hard in worship for God while studying at a college. Of course, it doesn't matter nearly as much as people make it out to. I'd be perfectly fine almost anywhere I go because my physical body is pretty useless.
88 - yes I do
89 - I'm blonde
