Oh for the love of god...

I have a girl named Maranda in my PE class. She's a Christian who reads the Bible every day. So we're arguing over which is better, French class or Spanish class, and we start tripping over the languages and start laughing.

Luce: Hee, gotta love foreign language classes.
Maranda: Unless you're flunking out of the class.
Luce: *giggle* This is why God wrote the Bible in English.
Maranda: Yes, exactly.

Um... Well... You know when you get that feeling that a joke you made just went right over someone's head? Happened here. I pointed out that the English thing was a joke, I was trying to be clever, haha. And she... stares at me!

Luce: You realize I'm joking right?
Maranda: About what?
Luce: The Bible! Being written in English!
Maranda: It is.
Luce: I mean, originally, when it was first written!
Maranda: *blinks* Yeah...

Dude, this is a red state on the Bible Belt and I'm a heathen, fair-weather agnostic/usual athetist.

English didn't exist back then, you neanderthal.

*cries*

*hugs you*

This is why we need education in the schools. You know, that stuff they're throwing away for "Intelligent Design". I swear, it's all a plot by the Zygote of Mendes.

Did I mention the kid in my Adv. Biology class who requested the teacher to underline "Theory" when she wrote "Theory of Evolution" on the board?
