Today was a pretty good day for me. I had to take a computer test this morning, and it was really hard and really long. But, I think I did fairly well on it even though I had to rush questions due to time restraints. This is literally the hardest semestes I've ever had because I was done with all the classes I needed to attain my BA in sociology, therefore I've had to take all the classes I either postponed or have previously failed. It sucks because I am taking class subject that I'm terrible at, aka math and computer science. Its ok though because I've been keeping up with my homework and Ive had a lot of time to think about my future along with other things such as religion and the human race in general.
Sociology has really opened my eyes about a lot of issues along with people in general. I think that my education in sociology with def. help me down the road in life. A lot of touchy issues that we have discussed in different classes have made me ponder my religion too. I was born Roman Catholic, and a lot of the issues that we have talked about in class, my religion says one thing and some of the "liberal"thinking with my peers have said different. I think this is a good thing to think about becaus it helps you establish your own personal beliefs.
But for the most part I think being well educated in sociology can help you become a better person and ultimately a better Christian. To be truthfully honest I think a lot of Catholics are biggots and very judgmental. I personally do not think that should be the case and I believe that all people deserve a certain level of respect and you should try to get to understand someones situation before you cast such harsh judement. People have to realize that not everyone grew up like they did so not everyone is going to agree with you or have the same beliefs. I just try to see the good in everyone. I think it is just part if me maturing and becoming my own person.
