This girl at my table douring lunch is an athiest. I am a Christian but I am not bothered by religious differences, although I am bothered by the imaturity of others my age. (I feel like the smartest person in the world sometimes and I'm not being smug, it feels sad and isolating) She call me ignorant because I thought teacher's couldn't use taboo language while teaching a class, and something about me not knowing something about sex - i can't remember (keep in mind that this is my first year in a public school and I got my only sex ed from sitcoms) She must think everyones dumb because she expects us to believe her stories, for example: she says she's met Tom from MySpace, and Falloutboy knows her by name, while at the same time, acording to her, she has religious and proctective parrents. Today she asked to copy my work and I said no and she's like "Ohh! Is it imooooral!?" It makes me feel better to imagine she will be punished on judgment day, is that wrong of me?

By the way, why do you suppose she feels the need to make fun of the way I eat, Iike to scrape the salt of my pretzel with my teeth and she says it looks like I'm giving it head.

Oh yeah, she still calls herself my friend and I can't afford to lose any friends.

Being a Christian you should Pray for her..."Pray for thine enemies". You dont want to lose a friend that is okay, but you dont want to lose yourself more. If you hang around with people who are not respectable people will think you are unrespectable. Just ignore the girl, pray for her, and move on to others for friendship.

Well, yes, it is wrong of you. In fact, none of us can be 100% absolutely positively sure that we are going to Heaven, we all have--even if slim--doubts. I don't believe her about meeting Tom or Fall Out Boy. But to deal with her, if she's your friend, and she can't afford to lose any, then why be her friend? I mean, if she calls you ignorant, then I mean, she's just asking for it. Now, your first year in public school, what grade? It really depends. If it's you 6th grade year, then it's probably some sort of phase. If it's 9th, then she's got problems. If it's neither, well, you're outta luck, should've waited till the next highest level of education, usually people will make fun of the new kid, esp. if they come after people have already made friends.

tell her that any time you want you can go out and have sex with someone and become just like her but she can never again be like you (a virgin, assuming you are).
she sounds like the classic attention whore who thinks that "knowing" famous people makers her special in some way. just let her tell her stories and dont say anything about it. eventually you will make more friends and the two of you will drift apart. life gets better after highschool.
she says your ignorant and then wants to copy your work? can you be ignorant and educated? she sounds like the ignorant one to me
"ohh! is i imooooral!?"
"no i just hate to see you so retarded and you should probably learn this stuff. it may come in handy some day when your working the register at mcdonalds"

One thing to remember is that people put others down to feel better about themselves.
This girl's problem is that she is unkind, and has rejected the truth of the bible. You can stand up for yourself without putting her down. If she makes fun of your faith and morals, just know that Jesus told us beforehand to expect this. You can reply to her by asking, "Why would you say a thing like that?"
Pray for her! Don't waiver in your faith. Are there other Christians at your school that you can hang out with?
God will judge and even if we don't see it in this lifetime His judgment is always righteous. But like God we should desire that all come to repentance!
Ask God for opportunities to witness to this girl. She may some day down the road, face a tough time and appreciate your prayers. I have witnessed to a few of my unsaved friends that way and have seen one come to the Lord so far!!
Hang in there!

First of all she is NOT your friend.
An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.
Buddha
I know you are Christian but the quote is so true, I had to learn the hard way.
She lies and goes out of her way to hurt your feelings while considering you a friend. She gets by in life by cheating off of others and not doing the work for herself. She should have your pity.........she sounds very unhappy and seems to be heading for a life filled with anger, disappointment and misery.
A friend is someone who will build you up and help you succeed not tear you down and make you feel unhappy.

Some people who are insecure in themselves get great pleasure out of insulting and putting others down. It makes her feel important, you know, a big shot.School years are not easy, keep up the good work, don't worry that you don't have all the answers about sex, your still a kid, things take time. Don't let her borrow your homework, she is just using you. People who brag about who they know are just showing off, again to make herself seem important. Its not really nice to wish anyone to go to hell, remember hell is forever and its the worse place ever. But we all have thought that at one time or another. God forgive us. Instead, pray the she meets Jesus. God Bless you.

Yes, that's wrong of you. It's petty and small. You talk of her thinking she's better than you, but in your comment that "she will be punished on judgment day" shows you're just as bad, or even worse. It's also supposedly not a very "christian" sentiment to be glad that someone else will come to harm. Too bad there are so many christians like you. That's probably why they have such a bad reputation.

Oh wow girl you have to listen well. Firstly ignore this girl. Dump her as a friend. And this a weird but like the Ford commerical Bold MOVES. I have a hard time making friends because all I want to talk about is what people call "intelligent" more like I'm curious. That girl plainly lies to you and makes fun of you. You can't stand with that. I ask you very much so to end that relationship now or as soon as possible. That girl will just keep making you uncomfortable and mock you. And that girl the quotes knows nothing about religion's ways. Yes the punishment thing is natural for us . I want that for some people but its not good. Instead of hate, love. BUT that does not mean you have to like her. And trust me I know teenagers these days are awful. Kids just getting worse and worse. I blame the media and bad parenting skills.

umm apparently you are the problem hence reading your question. In that paragraph of yours I've not noticed nothing about atheism. Funny. Yea and by the way that it is wrong of you, to think you can say who will punished just because other peoples words hurt you deeply. You claim that you are the "smartest person" in your reality, yet your stupid enough to play around in other peoples sick games. My advice would be not to take anything personal from someone you "probably" don't even know that deeply or even that, care about at all. The reason why she makes fun about you is simply becuase you take it, I would even say that your friend even knows that is just try have fun at your expense.

I guess she looks at you the same way you look at her..... with disgust. Sorry to say that but who are we to judge someone for something they believe to be the truth? The closest comment I can come to is just pray for her. She obviously isnt your friend and dangit u can afford to lose her. Keep in mind we are all human and not everyone will have the same opinion as you do. I am a Christian and people that claim to be atheist scare me to the point of knowing where they are going and knowing there isnt really anything I can do but pray for them.
