Re: Greetings, Friends and Fellow Christians!

It is your sad fate to be trapped among the godless heathens of the Federal Government, who have outposts in every godless town on Earth, the better to serve their master, Satan. I urge you to demand passage back to the United States at once and then to cut all ties with those Yankees. You should return to your home in South Carolina.

South Carolina is godly country. The mosquitos are numerous near the coast, but the food is better than inland and there are fewer drunks on the roads, those roads which are universally as bad as English back roads, only worse. There is plenty of good watermellon there, owing to the many Negroes in residence. There is also excellent BBQ (pronounced ba-ba q) for the same reason. I believe the Lord put the Negroe on Earth to cook ribs, as I cannot think of any other possible use for them.

Good luck in your quest to escape the Yankees and God Bless!

I am usually more cautious in dealing with newcomers, but your sincerity is there for all to see. Good luck with your plan to turn your back on the priests of the Roman church and join us True Christians™ at Landover Baptist.

Tell me, as your father is at the US Embassy in Prague, do you live and go to school in some sort of embassy compound that is technically American soil, so that although you are forced to go "abroad" from time to time, most of your life is spent in America?



In my Godless country we have a saying: South-east of the English channel, traffic lights are just a suggestion.

Take care and I will pray for you,

Rather unfortunately, I did go to school to an American compound... however, I instantly regretted this decision. I cannot imagine a school more godless. The teachers were as degraded as the students, and there was no dress code, so simply walking through the hall felt like browsing a red light district, even in the winter when one would assume that more clothes than usual would be the norm.

Many of the students openly showed their contempt of religion whenever I attempted to explain to them why their slutty behavior, beyond most likely getting them raped, was going to get them sent to hell. After a year there, I left.

Now I attend a British compound. The school has a "Christian" ethos, so it does not force any particular variant of Christianity on to me. All beliefs are accepted however the school is very friendly to Christians. There is a dress code and none of the students are permitted to behave like animals, at least now while they are in school (many of the Czechs drink lots of beer, however, seeing as they are Czech and drinking beer is a cultural pastime for them (The Czech Republic consumes the most beer per year in the world) I make an exception. Also, the Russians drink Vodka on the weekend, but they were just born that way).

Since the school is British the school uses the IB program. While it is a lot of work I like how it forces slackers to actually do at least a couple productive things with their lives.

I plan on finishing my education here for another year- I am sure that I can hold out- and then returning to America for college. I am not sure where I will end up but I will definitely do research on the most soulful state and find a good college there. I plan on studying creative writing.

Also, for those interested, why I turned away from Catholicism:

I have realized that all of the rules of Catholicism are in fact made by Catholics themselves. Anything man made is, by simple logic, in some way flawed- nobody if perfect. The exception to the "Nobody is perfect" rule is God and so the natural conclusion is that one should follow the exact word of the one perfect being (well, three, taking the trinity into account) as best they can. Baptists follow the bible exactly, and use the closest translation to the original bible, and so is, by logic, the least flawed of the many religions (Because they attempt to follow as closely as possible the word of the one flawless being).

Re: Greetings, Friends and Fellow Christians!

I am very sorry, though not surprised, to hear of your experiences at the American school. It sounds as though both the teachers and the students have "gone native".

Now I attend a British compound. The school has a "Christian" ethos, so it does not force any particular variant of Christianity on to me. All beliefs are accepted however the school is very friendly to Christians.

Oh dear. That sounds only too like the Britain of today, with its Godlessness masked by a pretense of "tolerance". You want to believe in the tooth fairy or the flying spaghetti monster, or train as a terrorist? Come to "tolerant" Britain, where we will fund your schools and allow you to indoctrinate children into the ways of Satan.

But you sound like a sensible young man, although you may have difficulty getting into a decent, Godly American college with the IB, whatever that may be. The only IB I know of is irritable bowel syndrome, but I am out of date with these newfangled British so-called-educational systems.

Take care, dear, that you do not adopt the absurd British spelling system, with its excessive use of the letter "u" and 2 ways of spelling practice and license. I was brought up to write like that and it is difficult to learn to write Jesus's own American in later life.

I have realized that all of the rules of Catholicism are in fact made by Catholics themselves.

Such insight from one so young! In time you will see that this applies not only to Cathlickism but to ALL religions, except those which follow this Holy Book TO THE LETTER:

Bless you dear, and I look forward to getting to know you better.

Re: Greetings, Friends and Fellow Christians!

While some people do choose to believe ridiculous things, they always end up feeling very silly about it if they go on and on about it.

I am always correcting the teachers improper British spelling, and sometimes they will humor me and actually spell things correctly!

Of course, the main reason that I continue to attend this school is that there is no better option. The other international schools are either too far away, in one of them the teachers smoke crack, and the American school if full of profanity.

Thank you for your praise! Although I consider that form of "Wisdom" to be common sense... something which many people seem to sorely need!

Re: Greetings, Friends and Fellow Christians!

Also, I forgot to add:

The IB Diploma is sort of like the British version of the SAT, although it is much, much more than a test! It is internationally accepted, and many American schools accept applications with IB scores as well.

The program involved writing an extended essay- which teaches many useful skills in writing serious essays in college- the CAS program, (Creativity, Action, Service) which requires people to get out there and do something, and ToK, the only drawback.

ToK- Theory of Knowledge- is some form of British brainwashing. The course is entirely pointless and I can think of no other reason that it exists, fortunately though I have managed to laugh of the course as a waste of time and like all the other students who view it with equal contempt we are immune to the "brainwashing" which I am sure is taking place.
