i am not him
September 07 2005
i love my parents. but i think i'm right on this.
i am not my brother. me and glenn are nothing alike.
yet i get compared to him.
right now im in standard english. i need to be in honors but my parents wont let me because the only honors teacher is a teacher that my brother had that supposedly "sent him down the wrong path straight into jail"
that year the issue was 9-11. of course this teacher had his views on it. and now this is its Katrina, which he has his strong views about too. he supposedly has weird religious beliefs.
glenn even fessed up to this teacher was the one that made him start thinking about other beliefs than those of the Bible and started twisting his thougts.but i think that glenn made his own decisions.
heres where we differ.
i am stronger in my faith than my brother was. at my age glenn had, im sure, already started into the partying mix and such, and i have never had a drink of alcohol or been to a high school party. glenn was known as a completely different kid in high school than i was and i hope to keep it that way. dont get me wrong. i love glenn with everything. hes amazing.
i had honors last year and the reason why i liked the teacher is because we had discussions and such things that made it more interesting. and from what ive heard from my friends in that class, they do those type things and more. in my standard class all we do is essays and grammar type things. i want to learn more! it will set me back when im a senior.
i know that having a good education is a worldly thing and that my God is more important than anything. but i think i can do it, actually i know, with and only with God beside me i can do it.
and back to the 9-11/Katrina thing. 9-11 was glenn's time to deal with him and choose his path (which by the way ever since glenns jail time hes been the closest to Christ he ever has been) but maybe Katrina and his views on that is my time to redo what happened to glenn and make it right.
i dont know.
feedback please.
i love you.

I agree.
I know people who couldn't handle talks of other religions, but I know lots of others that can. I'm not sayin to go against your parents (which is something I often wish to do) but I think that if you want to discuss and be an actual part of your class, I think you could handle any teacher.

I think you're right; just pray that your parents will change their minds if it's God's will. I had to do standard English junior year for a completely different reason, and even though I hated the class, God really called me to minister to a couple of the kids in there. Anyhow, I know you must be speaking of Dr. White, and he does have weird religious beliefs from what I hear, but I know Christians who have gone through his class without a problem. I know that you, Katie Suggs, are strong enough to endure it. Dr. White isn't the only teacher at Riverdale with strong beliefs like that; I can't imagine why your parents are opposed to him but not biology teachers and college professors. In college you really have to stand for what you believe in. Anyhow, the point is just pray about it, because even if parents are wrong in one sense, God may want you to stay where you're at. Hope that helps. :)
