Now I've often been defensive of my religion and sometimes even on the offensive but that doesn't mean that there are some things about it that bother me.
One the things that concern are the stories I keep hearing (and reading) from my fellow teens on how 'uncool' their religious parents are. Example could be one girl being criticized for wearing 'secular' clothes (e.g. mini skirt sleeveless) or another girl for 'dancing like a harlot' (hip-hop). Another is one is me, who loves anime, playing video games, and basically any work of fiction that features magic. Enter this...'preacher'... who comes and says why do you indulge yourself in the works of the devil ! Ooooh Jesus! you must repent and burn all that demonic garbage oooh Jesus!" ANd he quotes a lot boring bible verses. Also, there's the guy who loves listening to rock music and that he just enjoys singing and playing to the tune, but nooo his parents say their words of eeevil oooh!
Is this true? Are there parents like this?
