This was a status I just posted on facebook. My cousin comments it saying, “I say goddamn all the time. But I don’t believe in god, so it’s just a phrase to me.”
I swear when I read that, my heart sank. Like I knew she was iffy about God, but to even have the nerve to post that.. just.. I don’t know. Left me feeling sad for her, really sad.. and speechless on to what to even say to her. It seemed kind of attitudey, with the way she worded things, ‘cause I wasn’t even referring to her. Plus, me and her never bump heads or give eachother an attitude. I don’t know, maybe I’m taking it a little too personal? But whatever, I don’t care. If you don’t believe in God, then keep it to yourself because it’s your problem in the end, not mine. I don’t want to hear about how you don’t believe him, so you feel the ‘okay’ to say or do this or that.. no I don’t wanna hear it. Keep your negative naive, lost minded beliefs and thoughts to yourself. And to those who are atheist that come across this, I don’t mean to offend you even though you SHOULD feel offended, but I’m just heated. But I suggest you start believing God because HE IS REAL and when your time comes, you will regret it. I’ll still respect you as a person and your beliefs even though I may not agree with your beliefs.. but I’m just sayin’.Are you actually fucking kidding me? You know what I can’t stand? Self-entitled Christians who think that just because they believe in god, they are automatically superior to anyone who doesn’t, and those who don’t believe should feel guilty. I can’t stand people like you, and “keep your negative naive lost minded beliefs and thoughts to yourself” is literally one of the most offensive things I’ve ever read in my entire life. I happen to think you are the naive one. Also, “I’ll still respect you as a person and your beliefs even though I may not agree” actually contradicts all the hateful stuff you said before that. I suggest you really learn more about what it takes to be an actual Christian before you make another post like this one. “The nerve to post something like that”, you mean the nerve to openly state she doesn’t believe in your god. She has every right to do so, and there comes that self-entitled Christian bullshit again. Being a Christian doesn’t automatically make you better than any other person of any other religion just because you happen to think so.
I mean god damn.
So Brad totally talked about this in an interview, saying that Shiloh prefers to be addressed by all the family as John (and if anyone calls ze—I guess, I’m not sure if there are chosen gender pronouns yet, so I’m just going to use ze/zir—Shiloh, ze’ll be all “it’s JOHN OKAY?”) and prefers traditionally “masculine” things like swords and boy clothes etc., and he and Angelina don’t care because they a) recognize that not all children are the same/follow traditional gender binaries and b) they love John no matter what so it doesn’t matter to them what gender ze is. Which I thought was awesome/adorable.
Also, do you know what HARMS 3-YEAR-OLDS? Not letting them express themselves and, also, gossiping about their parents’ lives all over the covers of stupid fucking tabloids.
SO SO SO MUCH RESPECT.
