    Your Biggest Pet Peeves:
    1.) I don't like it when people don't research things properly or refuse to get their information from the source and rather go through second or third sources which often have some sort of bias involved. Or use fundamentally flawed sources,
    2.) I don't like fallacious reasoning, or use their own emotions over their reasoning abilities.
    3.) When people assume that I won't like them, or that I'll abandon them because I'm a Christian. This logically makes no sense!

    2.) Make sure that you've got logic behind it and don't rely solely on emotional arguments.

    Anything that would be good for others to know:

    1.) I want to be a Preacher like Hayden. I want to be a Christian pioneer of some sort


    2.) I was brought up in a Christian family and always had a strong devotion to Jesus. But it was Zeal without knowledge. I got bitter at God and my church friends at about 15. Mostly due to not being popular and not having a girlfriend. Had a time of rebellion at 16 - 18 where I was worldly. At 18 I went out to nightclubs and got drunk regually. One time I was so drunk at a party that I vomited. It woke me up. (God's slap on the face). I was soundly rebuked. I learned that I could just be myself. I was trying to be somebody else. I apologised to a few people over it. The root of bitterness was removed by God (painfully but it's much better for me now). And now I have an unquenchable love for Christians. God has also given me back my first love. I get rebuked by God alot.


    3.) I am grieved when I see Christians: a) that think God owes them something like I did. b) acting like the world. c) trying to be happy rather than holy. d) trying to be cool enough for the world to consider their Christianity e) being hypocritical. f) being unloving and uncaring g) leading the unsaved into Hell through their teachings and examples

    Jojo

    Born in Africa, raised in the US.

    *struts*

    Favorite food/least favorite food:

    Your Biggest Pet Peeves:

    1.)People who use the name of God to fulfill their own agenda, therefor scaring and soiling the name of those of us who follow Christ peacefully.
    2.)Atheists ( or just those who don't believe in Christ) who seem to have nothing better to do than insult a God they don't believe exists ( ironically), voice their lack of faith to everyone they meet, mock believers, and cause stupid dissension among God's people or any other people for that matter.
    3.)People who just lack faith. Who disregard parts of the bible they don't agree with and only use those that please them.
    ****4.) Those who don't have LOOOVVVEE!!!!! or COMMPPASSSIOONN!!!

    Tips on how others can get along with you:

    1.)Let me talk. I like to talk. AND most of the time what I have to say makes sense ( and has biblical/moral backup).
    2.)Don't cuss or use God's name in vain around me.I WILL slap you.
    3.)Don't even *step* to me with arguments on God if you haven't yet read up on stuff ( the bible and prayer, of course). Research, babay. I'm a debater.

    Anything that would be good for others to know:

    1.)I have a really high intellect ( naturally). So please tell me if I get too smart or become a smart-booty. Nicely, of course.
    2.) Don't draw conclusions. I'm a choleric. Defying stereotypes is my life.
    3.) I sound mean and female-doggy, but I'm actually quite sweet when I want to be. Conflict born out of ignorance just bothers me, so I probably won't be the nicest, but just relate to me with humor or on things that are not so irritating, and we'll be quite close.

    I'm not monster.
