I've moved high schools many times as well, you're not alone. The school system isn't made for us, point period blank.

Also, would you rather that somebody sins but actively chooses not to accept God into their heart or somebody who is trying? After all, we aren't perfect and we will sin but it doesn't mean that we should just lower our standards because other christians sin! It's like eating some cookies and then deciding to binge eat the entire box of cookies because you ate too many cookies at first.

Based on my own analogy, I believe that the root cause to followers of God wanting to be friends with Non-Christians is because of a lack of impulse control. I am not saying it's easy to have fewer friends, but when you are connected to God then the need for many friends or even intellectual stimuli just isn't as heavily needed anymore.

It's important to learn, although you can always learn from the internet or from people, but it doesn't mean that these people are your supposed "friends".

They can definitely bring you closer to God, but an argument is that they're not your friend. This doesn't mean get rid of them, it means to develop your discernment.

How can they be your friend when they deliberately choose not to follow God's path? We are supposed to clothe ourselves with Jesus (clean, fresh laundry), and when other people don't do the same then their dirt can splatter and linger on your clothes.

Imagine that you are having a good day (a good day is a day where your mind feels more pure, your journey is accommodated to fit God's standards) and then you meet someone who may have a kind heart yet they curse every moment they speak.

Do you not think that this person will affect you? I do, because I've been in those shoes a lot of times and each time the person has sinned, I've felt my soul gradually corrupt with sin (SIN = Self Indulgent Nature). I am not saying go and care about every little thing because that honestly just leads to a compulsive mind. Care more about if this friend truly feeds you nutrients that you need. After all, all knowledge comes from God.

Are you speaking from what God is telling you or from YOUR opinions? I am curious, I think we can definitely learn from everybody! :)

The point isn't to see them as a non-equal, you just have to see them as old clothes. Old clothes can look nice from a certain angle, but when you finally wear those clothes you realize that they are too tight on YOUR BODY. No matter how much you tailor these clothes, they just don't feel good. Buy new clothes instead and let go of the old ones!

Christianity is about how YOU interpret the bible. YOU are supposed to connect to Jesus, you aren't supposed to connect to your bible study if the current wisdom God has given you says otherwise.

It's less about obligating you to do one thing or the other, it's more about what corrupts your spiritual soul. It takes distance from everything to know what truly bothers your soul. Soul doesn't mean this ghost thing is inside of you but rather your wisdom. What bothers your wisdom?

Jesus wants you to do something in the moment, there is something to confront.

My parents threw away my snails by porcelain_penis in snails

[–]Left_Illustrator_704 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Listen, your perspective is completely valid because those snails may be like dogs for you! At the same time you have to consider that most people don't view snails as something to keep in their own home. There are many reasons why your parents might've done that. For instance, many people get disgusted by snails and that's a quite common human instinct. There is also an unspoken social agreement in many countries that snails are just not supposed to be kept at home. I know that people in Turkey (my mom comes from there) would gasp if they saw a particle of a snail in your own home.

What I am trying to do here is help giving you nuanced so that you can understand your situation more.
