Yep that thought has been in my head for a few days

Annnnd I got an A
No honestly I did... teacher was a complete nutcase, I liked him but he taught me nothing.
Spent most of May learning the course
Why did God only make himself known to a couple of human farmers in the middle-east. I mean why did he seemingly hide himself from the far-east or the African tribes or the Aztecs for example? And what about all the mnay people who lived and died before God even did this as in the Stone Age? Not that I am saying God doesn't exist but why the hell would he suddenly propose himself to a select group of humanity in very recent times. Sure you could say that you don't believe we lived before this time but what about other cultures?
And flooding the world, killing countless millions of innocents!? What the hell was that about, I mean a bit hippocritical considering the Ten Commandments. 'Thou shalt not kill...except God...he may kill randomly...what? Get back to praying you bums!'
Ok...taken a bit too far but this is my philosophical arguement for today.
Goodbye.

Yeah, right. It's all their fault, not yours at all. Jesus, I've read post after post from you and heard the same crap on MSN. Why can't you take just the smallest bit of responsibility for your failures? I'm not saying you're not intelligent, and I'm not saying it's all your fault, but you can't lay laziness on your teachers shoulders.
Anyway, back to evolution :D I've just been reading a book by a guy called James Lovelock. It's about his theory that the earth has been evolving along with life, in a kind of symbiotic relationship. The funny thing is that the book was written in the 70's, and quite a few of his predictions, such as levels of global warming, have come true. He wrote this in an age when no-one really knew about ozone, global warming or the greenhouse effect. So he's a genius, no doubt about it. What does this prove in the religion vs evolution argument? Notmuch, maybe. But maybe it shows that Earth doesn't support life because God created to do so, but that the Earth supports life because life is there to be supported.
Hey, it's just a theory. An incredibly well thought-out theory. But still a theory.
All my group of friends split up... most went to college, whilst the remaining lot fell out over something which left me in the middle.
I've talked to a lot more people this year than usual, just got few real friends.
Got all the grades I needed last year so nothing driving me on this year.
Also only reason I stayed on was... if I went to Uni I'd only be 16, which is pretty young and stuff. If I got a job for a year then I'd probably lose focus of doing education work.
So all I do is turn up miserable, talk to some people. I enjoy History, get bored in Geography, argue with Computing teacher and miss P.E and the rest of the time do naff all on my own. Already got into trouble a lot for missing Computing.
Balls it is and I still get treated like a kid
" Can I go to the toilet please? "
My point was that God put it as one of the commandments
Anyway, onto 6th form. What a "heap of poop" that was! The head of 6th form knew I was lazy, a trouble maker and cocky, and resented me. I had to convince him to let me in (technically I didn't have enough Cs or above to do A levels)
Every single one of my friends left after year 11. One went to work, one went to college, one went to another college (where I am now) and two tried 6th form for a couple of months before quitting. I was on my own. As most of the popular kids had also left, someone else rose up the ranks, and suddenly he and his friends were the main kids around. And that sucked, as we hated each other.
I'd gone from being in the in-crowd to being by myself. And I do mean by myself. There was about three or four people I could talk to there (out of over 60) but they would always be with the people I wanted nothing to do with so I barely saw them.
My Drama teacher hated me, and had NO faith in my ability. Probably because I got lazy in my acting, and had gone from one of his favourite students in year 7 to being the object of his bad tempers in year 12 and 13
My form tutor was my old Geography teacher, whom I ran rings around back in year 10 and 11, always knocking off, always handing in work up to a month late and never paying attention in lessons. To say he tried to get revenge as my tutor would be an understatement
6th form sucked. I should've gone straight to where I am now. Now, I can only do two years of college before I have to go off into the big, bad world. Parents won't send me to uni, too expensive. Luck of the draw, I'm afraid. If I weren't the youngest, they'd have no problem with it. I would be continuing media at uni right now if I hadn't bothered with 6th form. Two years and all I have to show for it is two C grades (would've been As if I hadn't been screwed) Now I'm doing just about the lowest form of media qualification there is, which certainly won't get me a job, even if I *do* pass it (which is looking unlikely since the tutors couldn't teach a monkey how to eat a banana)
Grrr... anyway, 6th form sucks. School sucks. College sucks... life had better be good, or I might as well just slit my wrists right now and be done with it. OK, rant over
