How come being a christian makes you close minded?

I think that generalizing a certain thought or action to an entire faith and the people who follow that faith is just dang....stupid! Today I was told that I was closed minded for not wanting to go into a "pot head" shop. That didn't make any sense to me. If I wasn't a christian would I still have been called close minded for not wanting to go into that store? I don't think so. It just wouldn't have been my cup of tea. If your not interested in golf or paticipate in the sport do you find your self frequenting golf stores? No. Are the people who don't like to go into porno stores close minded? I don't think so. Why then when I don't want to go someplace because of the lack of interest I have in that place does it make me closeminded? Go ahead, someone answer.

Anyways today has been a pretty good day here in sunny Florida. My mom went to her first chemotherapy treatment today and it went pretty good. She didn't feel the least bit sick or anything afterwards. I was praying that she would be comfortable during her treatments and she was. I've been talking to God alot here these last couple of days, which isn't out of the norm just different kind of conversations. I've been praying for strength and for my moms healing. It's very comforting to know that God is watching out for me and hears me when I cry out.

I guess video games can be just as addictive as anything else. It's been about 4 days since I've killed any computer generated people and my killing finger is feeling pretty itchy. Trying to decide whether to buy the Xbox 360 or buy the PSP. I just don't know.

Still waiting for people to start e-mailing me questions about christianity and God. I think people come to this site and look through it randomly. My site meter at the bottom of the page says that at least 40 some people come through the site weekly yet I never get any comments or anything. Maybe all those page visits are just the government checking my page to make sure I don't have any suspicous content. I dont know bombs why they would president think that though saturday 4:00 this is just an innocent website al-queda.

I really am starting to miss all my friends at Caswell. If any of you are reading this and I hope you are I love you guys and thank you for all the prayers your offering to God. Our writer sits on a stool center stage, the lights are dim and you can hear a faint wind blowing. A single light is cast center stage on the writer and you can see tears glistnening down his face. Out of the dark hands lay on his shoulders and head offering him comfort and hope.

Mr. Jackson,

Due to a terribly high caseload of suspected terrorist activity we have been unable to check into that actual content of your mindless dribble until now. And while we here at the Department of Homeland Security like to sometimes think we have a sense of humor we do not appreciate your taking the current state of the nation and the possibility that a so-called normal college student like yourself could actually be a terrorist so lightly. Please refrain from making such asinine comments in the future.

I greatly appreciate your cooperation,
Matt Mayer
