But I'm a...

I always wonder why people use religion as a means of gain. I do not consider myself to be religious…I’m spiritual and I believe in a god, but I do not follow one religion. It really angers me when people use religion as a reason for why they are entitled…in my experiences for money.

Today, I was on the phone with a woman, who wanted me to give her $4000 because she is an honest Christian. I do not understand why people believe that it is justifiable to throw out religion as a way of stating that you deserve more money. Can someone please explain this train of thought to me? Isn’t being a Christian all about being a good honest person, being tolerant and forgiving? Where does the entitlement to money come in? She literally told me that she prayed to god that I would pay her $4000…WTF?

Another example…this occurred several years ago, but it still bothers me. A man, yelled at me, for a good amount of time…and I mean screaming. What was he screaming about…about how he is aJehovah's Witness, and that means that he is a good honest person, and therefore is right, and I should pay him.

I wish people would understand that decisions are based on fact. It does not matter to me if you are a Christian, Jehovah’s Witness, Atheists, or any other religion/creed. I just care about if there is legal liability or not; then I look at the supporting documentation…religion, not on my list
