I need to accept a harsh and obscure religious code. Kind of sad, isn't it? Yeah, well there's some stuff I want to get out of at school, but I wanna be high-minded about it.
Doctor Toon said: If you only believe what you believe because someone else said you should believe it, then you have no right to expect anyone else to respect your opinion â Dr. Toon
That paragraph is exactly the kind of phrasing that Iâve been looking for. I may steal that on occasion :)
Well said! I never understood why people believed in things they couldnât explain. They donât expect to get called on it.I was going to start my own personal religion when I worked. One that said I could not work on weekends or after dark. Then I got a day job and no weekends and now retired â so Iâm religionless. (gee, spell checker doesnât like that word).
My sonâs high school was really multicultural. They also didnât allow the kids to wear hats (The school board stupidly claimed wearing of a hat of any kind indicated membership in a âgangâ ) The only kids allowed to wear heads were those whose religion required it (Sikhs, some Islam, some Jewish kids)My son and most of his friends were non-conformist art and drama geeks. They all enjoyed pushing the envelope, and often showed up wearing top hats, bowlers, jesterâs hats, bakerâs hats, whatever they could find, the more outlandish the better. Only one managed to keep his hat on all the time. Norman wore a plain black watchcap. He claimed he wore it for religious reasons. When asked which religion, he told the school board âI practice Normanism.â They let him wear his hat.

That âSideshow Bobâ looking boy is my favourite out of Tobyâs friends.
The other one is pretty cute too but he needs a haircut.
