Holy Crap Brett! Wow.
Anywho and whatnot, If some girls dont like your behavior, whats it to you? They are just people. Its not like they will kill you if you dont act Christian-like.

Whart you do is what you choose to do, we choose to do the things we do, we choose to feel the way we do, its all about being strong minded enough & not weak, easily lead, im sure u will find ppl simmilar to u, but why not change & try to be a person that these Christians can like you, is it so bad just being a bit civilised & just trying to be like this Christians, you got nothing to lose surely, you can choose to be just but unselifh if you want, you dont have to smoke, drink, cuss etc, just change a bit, be strong minded, as they say you are by the company you keep, life is how you make it, but if u still want to be how u r now then thats up to you, most likely these Christians will just ignore you rather have a go at you, but try to be nice, its not that much of a hard thing to do lol, peace.

Stop smoking,drinking and cussing and except Jesus as your Lord and personal Savior and you will find that anything is possible. It is not boring like most people think to being a Christian. You can have plenty of fun by doing the right thing. Try it while you are at camp and leave all that negativity behind and when you go back you will not have the desire for it.

Talk to them like you'd talk to any girls. Be nice and respectful. You probably would want to tone down the swearing though. I have counseled at a Christian camp for several years, and I always have to watch what I saw. I dropped a bomb in front of a eight year old last year and felt horrible, but I don't think he noticed.
People won't shun you. Just participate in the games and activities, they're a lot of fun. All that Jesus talk is just a small aspect of camp, and if you can bear that you'll have a blast with the rest of it!

If the girls at this camp are true born again Bible believing Christians, just trust me, they will know how to talk to you and what to say. Just be yourself and use decent manners. You will soon know if these girls are true Christians just by the way they act, as it says in the Bible "by their fruit you will know." True Christians won't shun you, but instead they will witness to you and try to make a believer out of you. Now the wanna be Christians that are a part of false religions will shun you because they are not saved. Does this make sense?

Find the ones at camp that challenge Christianity and are there because their parents made them go.

Just be respectful of the people there. Respect their religion too... even if you're not really into it.. and open yourself up to new things - if they see that your trying, maybe not to be a christian but at least to improve yourself i think that'll be another plus...

"Girls like bad boys", or whatever that cliche is.
Maybe with Christian girls, you don't have to be quite so bad, to still be bad.
With a non-Christian chick, you got to be a gangster -- but with a Christian girl, you just need to say words like "sh-t" and offer a peek at your cigarette-stained teeth.

Well, drop your habits for the time you're in camp. They wouldn't like you doing it, at least openly. Then when you get back home you can go back to your old ways.
