Keysi Nunez on Religion and the Catholic Pinoy

April 11, 2007

I have no qualms with living in this country, but what sucks is that religion messes up everything! Add the stupendous thinking of other pinoys, the crab mentality, the worthless government and you have one hell of a dish. Hell I say! XD

You know the highschool kids selling ballpens, calendars and all that? Well I had a great experience with them! *overflowing sarcasm here* XD

I was quietly enjoying a nicotine break when this kid, wearing a white shirt, baston jeans, and an ID walks up to me and offers me a pen. He says that he’s in highschool and that they’re selling stuff for a project. I politely decline his offer and fish out a pen to show him that I didn’t need one. He frowns, puts the pen in his bag (girly bag BTW, lol) and then shows me a calendar. He says that he’s a working student, and that if I bought a calendar (for 40 freaking pesos), it would greatly help him finance studies. I was freaking pissed! First, he says that it was for a project, then he says that if I bought one I could help send him to school. On top of that, when I flip over the calendar, I see a picture of the Jesus Christ! This kid was getting to my nerves, but again, I politely decline his offer. He frowns for a fraction of a second then insists that I buy one. Irritably, I tell him to leave because 40 pesos is a bit too much for a freaking calendar. He begs for me to buy one and I blow my fuse. In a strained whisper, I tell him that first he was disturbing my me time, second, I’d be nuts to spend 40 pesos for a calendar, third, his insistence and appearance is getting on my nerves, and lastly, I didn’t believe in his God. He was shocked. Then he smiles, hands me the calendar and begs me again to buy it even if I wasn’t Catholic. Unbelievably pissed and irritated beyond belief, I flick my cig and go back into the building. Continue reading this post.
