Why is it that I turn into a blithering idiot in front of any girl who has a small chance of liking me?

Things with that punk girl were going real well this morning. Of course, the Gideons were trying to fuck me over, by handing me a little New Testament. After some very cool casual conversation in class, I open this book and read John 3:16, and compare it to Milton's Paradise Lost.

Me: According to Milton, Jesus wasn't selected by God, rather he volunteered.

She: It's all fiction.

Me: The New Testament, or Paradise Lost?

*akward silence ensues, followed by vague answer of Paradise Lost*

Me: Yeah, and in Paradise Lost Milton always hides God [visually], which doesn't seem necessary because Genesis describes man as being made in the image of God, so any man could have played the part of God.

She: I think that it was illegal to portray images of God during that time.

*She walks away, and says nary a word to me for the rest of the day*

Irony is proof for the existence of God.

sigh...

What school do you go to that you get up and read the New Testament casually in class? Catholic school?

"Me: The New Testament, or Paradise Lost?" is a valid question... there should not have been any awkward silence. How are you to know she didn't think that the New Testament is mere fiction?

Alright, nothing about a person pisses me off more than when they press their fucking religion on me. If this girl is anything like me she won't talk to you much anymore, and will probably tell her friend's you are a bitch. I grew up going to bullshit Jesus schools and have a strong dislike for the Bible and people who press it on others. My advice, DON'T EVER TALK RELIGION TO PEOPLE YOU FIRST MEET. EVER.

thats stereotypical, judgemental, and unfair but such good advice. not all but most of them are like that.

I hate religeous zealots too.

I go to a community college, and I was in Environmental Science (aka leftist agitprop for four credits!).

Where did I become a religious zealot? I'm an agnostic, which she already knew from a conversation she had started the other day. It's the fact that I'm so well versed in Christian theories that scared her away, not the fact that we were talking about religion. She hadn't even heard of Paradise Lost before I brought it up.

Judge not, sweet kiddies, lest ye be judged...

You just answered your own question. Girls don't want to sit there and talk about Chrsitian theories. Girls want to BE LISTENED TO. Just ask questions. If you know she is really into something, ask her the right questions to let her talk as long as she wants. Then she'll start with the same type of thing. Just listen, that's the thing most girls complain about, guys not listening enough. It's amazing what you will find out about other people if you just let a girl talk for HOURS. I know.

the Commie much like myself is a pompous bastard. I'm asking the quite bonable chick in my theater class out for coffee, if this fails, which I figure it will I'll go get blind drunk and bitch about women.

Looks like I gotta go get blind drunk and bitch about women. Commie you're invited.

When is this drinking party?

I don't know, where ever there's imbibable spirits and you my good friend.

Rock out, and then we'll talk religion and objectivism when we're drunk.

As long as you try and look like a sophisticated egghead to impress women, they will ignore you. LoL, you talked to a cute girl about that. LoL What the fuck do you expect?

Works in college.

Or so I hear.

Probably not.

Girls do like smart guys... Eventually most of them develope a superiority complex and leave me...

But anyway, girls like cute more than smart.

Smart and boring with a tendency to vomit stuff verbatim are two different things.

I dont even think they like smart men anyway. They probably dig guys with wisdom more. How many honors students and AP Chemistry guys do you see with chicks lining up for?

Girls Do like smart/wise/intelligent men.
Just takes them a few stoopid ones to work it out.

The AP students would get almost as many chicks if they looked like the dumb bozos with the rock-solid builds. The only reason they wouldn't get as many is because there's a lot more dumb people in the world than smart ones.

AP students are often of average intelligence.

In a HS or College situation, the slacker is more often than not, the one of greater intelligence.

Personally, I think you have to be pretty fucking stupid to waste 2 hours reading about something that you're not interested in, taking notes all the way, to get an "A" to please yourself/parents/god/gremlins in your pants/whoever.

And one more thing, you have to look good before someone will notice you're smart in most cases. There is also a tendency of people to think attractive people are smarter and more capable than they actually are...

All i know is religion is a trouble maker among people.
