announcement for hetalia...

Thu Sep 3, 2009, 11:47 PM
so im quitting?

i know you guys must think im doing this for drama, and im really not...im serious

so I'm a practicing Christian. im sure most of you know that....lately my Faith, relationship with God and my ability to worship have all been declining.

i had no idea what to do really, when i was a very small girl..before i was 8 or so. i had a very strong relationship with God. but with my grandparents arguing with me about judism(?) and watching a play called "heaven's gates and hell's Flames" it just got worse and worse. When i was a kid, i was very happy and i had no fear of God. he was God yes, but he was someone who created me, saved me and loved me. now i feel like everything i do he's watching me, waiting for me to slip up. angry with everything i enjoy....

it distresses me very much. God is not that kind of person. so its my own imagination as well as the devil(sounds crazy i knooooow) thats giving me this image. im tired of it. i want things to be the way they had been. i was always very happy to pray and go to church. now i feel alienated. i dont enjoy it.

time and time again i have done new things to remedy this. but none have worked. im a happy person. but this is always in the back of my mind. God loves me i know this... but humans are forgetful and i have forgotten the feelings i had before....

ON TO THE TITLE

as we all know homosexuality is sin in christianity(as well as islam and judism). i dont hate gay people, i do not like the sins that they commit(but we all sin, they arent different from me or my other straight friends). hate the sin not the sinner. God loves veryone. people that hate gays are not acting like true christians, hate is a sin

for those of you homosexuals and yaoi fans out there. try to understand. ITS JUST SOMETHING WE ARE NOT PERMITTED TO DO. i cant stop you from it of course, its your free will. but i will not have it myself.

Hetalia unfortunetly is one of those things. at first i denied the totally-canon-yaoi. but now i realize its just a lie so i can watch it. I want to have the things i so long for in my relationship with God...and i cant just ask for faith and then watch things that God may not appreciatte. so i decided to stop watching/reading/listening to hetalia.
THIS COULD BE permanent or not....i could be wrong about it and there fore i can watch again =)

i hope i read/heard God wrong and that i can still watch it...but if not then i wont participate in it... Its my duty as a christian to follow Gods word and his will. i wont let my own likes get in the way of that. i still have sevral unfinished projects that i will complete put then its noooo more. i will comment on good art...but i will not buy any more merchandise nor draw it myself.

WITH THAT SAID, ARE THERE ANY CHRISTIANS OUT THERE THAT KNOW OF SOME GOOD ANIME THAT WONT BE A BAD THING FOR ME TO WATCH? thankyou

uhhh :I

" i dont hate gay people, i do not like the sins that they commit "

It's not like all of them choose to be gay, most of them are born that way.

I guess it's what you believe ... I won't provoke any arguments here.

If you feel that you shouldn't watch yaoi anymore because of your religion, than don't.

Mhm~ I'm pretty glad that I'm not this religous. Of course I believe in God and such, but God never hates you for what you do. You're still a child of God, aren't you? He forgives, that's what we've learned in Europe. (Stupid wannabe-christians that only wanted the money >_> I learned that at school xD)

Mmh, some anime that doesn't contain yaoi? One Piece? Or Yu-Gi-Oh?
But like the comment before, gay people are born like that and have no other choise. Love is love, isn't it? Love is not a sin =o And if it was wrong to be gay then why did God let them be born like this? That's pretty unfair, don't you think?

Anyway~ I still respect and understand your opinions. I mean, I would also think like this if I was raised that way. We believe what makes us happy, we live in free countries after all :)

You see christians dont beleive you are...well

people are born into sinful nature, however it is beleived by us, that we can overcome this. with the help of God naturallly

homosexuality is just another sin...like im very lazy. on one level im the same as a homosexual becuase i have a bad sinful habit, do you understand? a true christian doesnt consider gays a worse kind of sinner.

im trying not to. its hard to resist hetalia becuase i love history sooo~

Yes I'm a child of God...but i dont feel like it. i hope that i can acheive more faith by sacrifice =)

(yah those wanna bes give us a bad name!)

well people are born sinful, to me homosexuality is another type of sin. God wants to help us not be sinful. I dont view homosexuals on the same page as murderers or anything extreme like that. To be honest i dont mind them at all. but its not right, like if i did something in the name of love that was wrong, its not right, nor is it true love. becuase love cant sin.

i dont think God let them be born that way. people sinned first, so now all of humanity is sinful. But Jesus said that we must love all people. and that means ALL people. so i dont hate anyone

thankyou, im glad that even though we disagree we can respect each others opinions =)

Hmm... I hope that you will feel better after that :)

Mhm, of course you can see it that way. I'm to that familiar with the bible~ As a wanna-be (adventure-fantasy) author, I need to be kind of realistic. Not that I don't believe at all, but I always had to be doing things on my own. Maybe God helped me through ;) Even if I never feeled it that way~

Haha, no problem :heart: As you said, we must love all people! Even those who are not with our opinions. And you're my friend, of course :) No matter what religion you're in or something else. As long as people don't force me to believe in their opinions, I'm fine with that! (Only the really bad things... Like pedophelia or something like that =/ )

Yaoi fans ruin everything. They always try to find the smallest things and make it gay. I tend to ignore all the yaoi crap in Hetalia, since its actually all fannon anyways.

The sad part is, if you try to debate with them, they yell at you back and use stuff as proof. Trust me, Yaoi fangirls will try to defend stuff( ex: Raven x Lucius).

I'm sorry you feel that way, and I hope things get better.

Boom... boom

You make me wanna move
You make my body sing
You make my ears ring
Oh boom, ba-doom, ba-doom
So feel it shake the room
You know I'll always stay
While they play the bass
Oh boom, ba-doom, ba-doom

I was christian believe it or not. I understand what you're at there. My belief in god broke apart long ago under the things that made me question his existence. I know now that something like it does exist in some form whether he's in the form of the christ-judeo god, buddha, allah, or the collective essence and/or acts of all humanity. Regardless its your choice to believe in him or to choose something else in the place of it. I'm happy that you'll accept the problems of others unlike so many other so-called "christians" and that you're willing to give up things to go back to your beliefs. I can respect and envy that. My words may seem like blasphemy to your belief but you have to look at the greater picture that is happening, more than our individual lives. I see humanity on a whole as a kind of god, a many part confused god that is unable to decide whether it wishes to kill itself to stop the pain or to destroy everything for nothing or to become like a god. I could go on but its your choice. I've chosen to look away from one view of god, if you want to believe in your ideal of the almighty force then I'm supporting you all the way. Because more than once I wish I could go back to how it was when I still believed.
:iconryuji90:
nehhhh??
:3 can i play devils advocate?? XD; now, before i go on, you can ignore this comment if you wish. :3 i honestly thing that its cool doing what you think is write, but :evillaugh: i was born to play devil's advocate.
i'll admit, i don't believe in the same things you do, but thats cool. :3 to each his own, eh? all that, i'll respect yours if you respect mine, stuff, right?? at least thats who i am.
but i do have a question.... (aka: here comes the devil's advocate) (>3>;; meaning... i'm just gonna post some questions and i'm curious as to your response)
Obviously, you don't take part in same gender relationships and you don't support them, but at the same time you don't force your beliefs on others (to which i takclehug you and never let go) (seriously. =~=;; too many christians wanting to shove their beliefs down some ';pagan' throats). because of this, do you believe that, by watching Hetalia, you are supporting same gender relationships?? Honestly, i don't think there is yaoi or shonen-ai in it, but thats me.

Okay...thats a ramble. In my experience, its okay to read stuff like that, as doctrined by the christian god. Whats not okay is to participate in it (as in be in a relationship yourself). at least thats what i've come to understand. *thinks* i dunno. but i admire your resolution to do what you think is right. :3 seriously, i really do.
i'm not into yaoi or shonen-ai. i can tolerate it, but i don't go looking for it. and because of this, i don't think theres any in Hetalia. different cultures have different customs. And i think this is what hetalia is playing off of. For instance, in the middle east, it would be totally normal to see two businessman holding hands. Its a sign of comraderie and friendship. just friends. Just like in italy, its common for others to say hello by killing each other on the cheek. Its the same as shaking a hand is in america. :shrug: with that in mind, I think its funny to see how Hetalia is making fun of other peoples customs, but without predjudice. its all in good taste and good humor.
Plus, the chirstian god is an understanding god, no?? Because you are enjoying the story, and if Hetalia makes you happy, i think he'd be okay with it because you aren't breaking his rule of 'no same gender relationships' because you aren't in one yourself.
XD;; now, i could go on and on, but i'll cut this short. I, personally, don't believe in any god. I'm not atheist, really. I consider myself agnostic. i don't believe in a god, but i do think there is a possibility. I also don't have anything against homosexuals and I support them in that its their choice and they are free to choose who to love. (gah... sorry, but i'm trying to word this right :shakefist: such a touchy subject...)
