Something that I have been interested in learning more about has been why do people lie. I remember my best friend talking about it the day of my birthday, but it was my birthday so I didn't really pay attention to it.. Lately, the issue has caught my eye again. I know that many people feel that lies are the solution to the big problems. From what I have heard, lies are not healthy and could get you in lots of trouble especially when it comes to relationships. For example, I heard that lies could be told quickly and it could make the problem easier to resolved.

Walking through the grocery store, I sometimes stop and flip through the dramatic and overly priced magazines, that bombard the checkout line between rows and rows of gum and candy. It is hard to remember in these fleeting moments that what I see is often a highly computerized image with a dramatic and often false headline. Photoshop techniques have been highly critized lately, with many women claiming that they feel pressured and uncomfortable with many of the images produced by both magazines and advertisements alike.

I have yet to understand some of these people who call themselves Christians. People that go to regular churches, sit there, listen to the Word, and go home reflecting on what they've heard, are so quick to judge people. One topic that comes to mind in particular is homosexuality. I know, as a Christian, that homosexuality is a sin in God's eyes, but where do people get off talking about them as if they are not human?! This highly upsets me because some of these "Christians" are so damn hypocritical. They have a LOT of nerve walking around cursing, yelling, and screaming, verbally abusing the homosexuals, then going back to church to clap and praise God for all he has done and stuff like that. To sit here and read the Bible that basically says that people shouldn't be wicked to one another, and then to physically, emotionally, and mentally hurt someone is absolutely ridiculous. I can't stand sitting around and watching these "Christians" ridicule someone for what they believe and obviously feel strong about. It urks me and makes me want to say something in the protection of the homosexual.
