People who try to tell you what religion you are! I mean do they have to come to my house on Sunday morning at 10am knocking on my door for like 5 minutes!!! Don't they get it that I am not opening the door at 10am, because about five hours ago I had barely gone to sleep after a great party!!! Also, those you find walking down the street handing out papers about God and asking you what religion you are. And if you don't respond they won't let you go, because they want to convert you!!! Leave me alone!!!!!

Phewww, I feel a whole lot better!!!

There indeed are such things as atheists... I see them all the time.... as for "true" Christians... Those of The True Christian Faith know they are... and when they find someone claiming to be who is clearly not... We have the right to defend The Truth... As for pink unicorns... since I left the cult of Mr. Jim Beam and Mr. Segram... I no longer have contact with them... but none of them ever told me about the monkeys... did I miss something?

Honestly?

Both annoy the heck out of me. But if I had to choose one, it would be the first one. I know what I am. I am the only one who knows for sure what I am. Unless a person can read minds, they have no grounds to tell me what I am or how I feel.

The second on is a little less annoying but still pretty bad. For the same reasons, really. How the heck am I supposed to know what anyone else is? A person can describe him/herself completely and still, I am not that person so am not qualified to make a judgement in any way.

Definitely the what religion people, although I kinda feel sorry for them.

The first set of people are just simply ignorant, which I can brush off pretty easily.

The second set for some reason feel that they have to put a label on themselves instead of just accepting that their beliefs are just unique.

It doesn't bother me to hear people telling me what religion they think I am. . .and sometimes I think I am gonna puke if I hear the "true Christian" thing one more time, lol.

But, the 2nd choice always catches me a bit off guard. . .to ask what am I or what should I be. . .if you don't know yet that is ok. . .but keep looking and searching for your own answers. . .don't let someone else label you.

People who rely on other people to tell them what religion they are annoys me more

I would have to say both.. I f you need a label to be officially religious then maybe that's all they are is religious..Maybe it doesn't count at all in the kingdom of God..Something to think about for those who rather worry about a label then a real relationship with Christ....

Oh, definitely anyone who is certain that they can see inside my mind and soul, (and not infrequently my history).

"No doubt at all" is a more annoying and frightening stance than any other mix of scepticism, doubt, uncertainty and naivety.
