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*

Wait, so I am the only one around here who has to learn Latin at school? O_O I didn't know that...

Pretty much. I'm small town. We get French or Spanish, have shite computers, no advanced writing class (*rage!*), and the contempory issues classes keep getting dropped because you need more than three people to go out for them.

*sigh*

I'm small town, too. Meaning we have no computers. No working ones at least.
