i'm a free-thinker but i've been in a catholic school for the past 4 years. but since i moved to this new christian school i feel like all the teachers want me to be a christian because i'm the only caucasian in the school as i live in asia and almost everyone is chinese. they think that if your not indian or malay then u are a christian. we have chapel programme every week which all students have to atend but sometimes the teachers pick out students who they think can be church leaders to attend to sessions which they'll talk about the gospel. and guess wat? i was picked!!! i tried it out one time but i felt REALLY uncomfortable...i don't know wat to do! everyone expects me to be a christian!!!

Why don't you tell them that you're not a Christian?

First you did the right thing by asking, although this is an open forum, and religion which I know is within you, perhaps waiting too come out, it needs to begun, at an early age, to work best in the grow of the person. although not everything is lost, to my way of seeing, because although my self I'm Roman Catholic, I also Love Buddhism, especially the one been practice to day in Tibet. To me the Dali lama, is as much and perhaps more important (for some peoples), than the Pope, the prince of the Catholic Church. I recommend do the best not to opposed your self to none, and try to practice the two of then, hopefully there you can find some light before getting to the end of the tunnel, (I know there is a light ) at the end, of such tunnel. God bless you.

I feel so sorry about the situation you have faced. They think that it is a part of the education. Do not let them brainwash you under any cost. Try to make them understand that you don't want a religion. But keep things peaceful. Speak little and listem much. Be a free thinker. If they ask you if you have a religion just name a very free and open minded religion [like Buddhism for example], (you don't need to be K!). Then they will not try to Give you a religion by force because they will think that you have a one.
Once you give them control what you believe, specially in religions like Christianity they brainwash you.
Good luck.

Why are you attending a Christian school when you're not a Christian? What did you expect? That's like joining the NRA when you're against guns.
See if your parents will let you transfer to a public school or a secular private school instead.

Why are you in a christian school? One of the purposes of a christian or catholic school is to promote christianity in its students.

all that you need to do is what you want to do. for you are your own person. personally i think that the salvation of Christ is a lie. if you do not believe in the ways of the church i would let them know somehow without offending them. just tell them your keeping an open religious mind, and for the time being that you are studying witchcraft.

Dont push back, just keep a low profile when it comes to being a christian. You dont want to make enemies, these people will probably not accept that you dont accept their christianity.
