ok so this is a religious topic regarding the old testament. i have now experienced the type of person who beleives that the jews were not Gods chosen people, and that there were no chosen people. i failed to explain that they began preaching to gentiles also. So we got deeper into the topic, and i invited him to church so that i could explain this ore to him after the morning service. He then refused and said i was wrong about the whole thing. i then thought about christ death on the cross. but i decided not to bring that up seeing as it might have frustrated him more. but since we're at school and he refuses to attend my church tonight or sunday i cant completely explain my view or the truth. i have just never actually had a spiritual talk about how God loved everyone no matter what they do.... i need a little advice on how to explain this to him. and i did leave some major points out which i hope to throw in there in our next conversation. but all comments are welcome that will help me.
p.s. I made A team on track!

well it is DEC 31! new years day! and more importantly the BCS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP IS IN 7 DAYS!!!!!!!! TEXAS VS. ALABAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok i know i havent been on in a LONG time.... but heres an update. so everythings the same as it was before; except christmas rolled around.... and new years is right around the corner. this year was great, but i wish i had some of my camp friends to share it with. and due to the unusual chilly weather im sick. but that is least of my worries because academicly my grades have slipped to almost all B's... not good. that and if im sick for the remainder of the holidays i wont get to run which will affect me in my athletics class. i got just about everything i could want for christmas. even as the holidays come to an end there is an upside! January 7th is the national college football championship game! TEXAS LONGHORNS VS. ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE. and for all of those who dont know i am rooting for texas! they actually have a shot at the title!!!!!!!!!!!! i think they'll win despite everyone saying the BIG 12 isnt as good as the SEC. and that texas has no chance. anyway theres an update.
