Lately I've been feeling very alone. I think my beliefs are driving lots of my friends away. It's really hard, because I don't want to compromise what I believe in, but I really don't want to lose them.
My being an Atheist, and quite a prolific one at that, seems to be the main cause. A lot of them keep calling me an asshole because I speak my beliefs with out holding back. Maybe they're right, and I am picking fights. I really don't try to start debates though. I think most of the time it comes up because of something they say, and I make a remark back that angers them.
It's a shame really, because I really do like to debate y side. It seems many of them however can't stand to deal with my logic. I don't really have a solution at this time. I'm not going to change ad neither are they. I'm just feeling really lonely right now and it feels good to tell someone about it, even if in doing so I'm really telling no one.
I am really glad for the friends I do have now though. Life is really scary for me and they are pretty good support, even when they seem distant. I've missed a lot of school lately, but I'm about caught up. College is looming forward. But I think now it is time for sleep. Goodnight.

I was just looking at blogger and I saw this blog was recently updated. I decided to look at it because of you interesting choice of a title. Because of the low amount of posts, I'm starting from the beginning. So, here:
I know how you feel, I think. My two best friends are Christians, and I am not. I live with it, really. I go to a "Youth Group" with them, although I don't really believe what I hear there. I find the bible interesting all the same. My brother, on the other hand, can't seem to stop making others mad. He picks fights with anyone that believes in God. Which is the main thing I dislike about him. But, for this post, thats all I have to say. See ya.
