Answer 1

No, you are not a bad person. They are just spreading the Good News of Christ! God told us all to be missionaries to this world, and that is exactly what they are doing. Don't feel harassed, just go with the flow. You might get something out of it!

Answer 2

Well, recognizing that you don't want to convert is a good first step.

I'd advise you to adopt the "broken record" technique: keep saying "No, thank you, not interested" or some variation thereof... and keep saying it... and keep saying it. You can try explaining your point of view, but I doubt you'll get very far. You could try going to the teachers or the principal, but I know that there are issues around taking that road no matter what kind of school you're in.

Being at a Christian school, it's going to be hard to get away from the attitude that you HAVE to be a Christian. Stay strong, and don't compromise your own beliefs. If possible, find people outside of the school who share your belief system that you can talk to and get support from.

I wish you the best of luck.

Answer 3

Then why are you going there?? It would be like me going to an all atheist school which I would never do due to my faith in the Lord of my life. If it's because your parents have decided this, then wonder why a loving parent who cares about you and especially your eternal destiny would do such a loving thing?? I think it's obvious that you are one of the fortunate people in this world with presumably loving parents and classmates who care enough to go against your natural grain (we are all born into this sin) to bring you into the light that they share and hope you will too if you open your eyes and heart!! If you really do not want this life of hope and eternity in heaven with the Lord, this is your choice and after so much rejection, they may give up on you. I pray you don't give up on yourself and your maker!! That would be your biggest and deadliest mistake you'd ever make. If you should die in your sins, rejecting salvation, and God doesn't find your name in the book of life, you can never think these people didn't care enough to love you or what you call harass you. Go with God in Peace!

Answer 4

They think they know what you are and what you are not, and they can't tolerate you being what they think and know that you are and are not.

Now you are kind of a recalcitrant hostage for them at that school, and they even want to make you their own robot because they bluntly believe it is good and right to look like each other's hostage and to be each other's robot - this may be what they, "the Poor of Spirit", are unknowingly programmed to be.

You might adopt a strategy where you will wear a great smile and warmly declare that it is reasonable of you to become one like them, and that you would love having them work for you helping you as good as they can to become a good follower of their creed and a good friend of theirs,

or you might decide to leave that school for good - you shall anyway leave that school sooner or later.

Jesus Christ is reported to have said: "Those who are not with Me are against Me". If you think a while about this declaration you will clearly realize that those people at that school according to their Christian creed are not being bluntly unreasonable. They seem to be wanting you to be with them so they, "the Poor of Spirit", may not have to think nor to say that you are not against them by not being with them.

Good luck to you in your life struggle for survival.

Answer 5

You ARE being harrassed, get out of that school as soon as possible, they will only continue the harrassment. Don't give into them either stay strong in what you believe they don't know whats best for you... screw em. I'm an Athest and I would love to come to school with you for a day just to tell these kids that they are wrong and that thy are ridiculous. Don't worry about it though let them talk and don't listen, ignore them... or beter yet just start talkng about your religion in the middle of their rant have some fun with them.

Answer 6

Tell your parents to send you to a public school. I wonder why you are there anyways as usually Christian school only accept practising Christians.

Answer 7

I did the same thing, just ignore them. I went to a private Catholic High School because the education was much better than what the public school could offer. Out of 800 kids in my class, there was only one other person who was a non-Catholic. He was Jewish, and I was an atheist. Guess who took more crap from everyone else? The Jewish guy! I guess to them worshiping the "wrong" God was more wrong than not worshiping at all.


-All you can do is either switch schools or ignore them.

Answer 8

Report it as harrassment because it is. When I taught at a Catholic school, we warmly welcomed non-Catholics and non-Christians although we did require them to learn about our faith. They didn't have to believe it or practice it, however.

tell them that their lack of acceptance of you as you are is what is preventing you from becoming Christian. Pressuring people into joining another faith never does anyone any good.

Answer 9

The school is at fault for accepting you and you not being a Christian. Shame on them.

Answer 10

Well,you're at a Christian school.It shows that your friends care about you,and want you to be saved.They are not doing it to annoy you,but they shouldn't be trying to force you to convert either.
