Hi alindixon, okay, so maybe they think they are superior or perfection is at the top of their list but seems like you know better. We all live in an imperfect world which abounds with imperfections. We all have scars, warts, and blemishes of some kind. I've never met a perfect person yet. I'm sure some mad scientist would just love to create one and clone it.

Live your life the best you can and try not to measure yourself by the standards of others. Set your own standard for your life and your family. Many a person has suffered emotionally because of religious dogma. I believe a person has the right to choose whether or not to belong to a religious group, and not feel they have to because that is what their parents chose for them. It may work for them but it may not work for you. I'll get off the now. You're so young and have a full life ahead of you. Live it well and strive to be happy. Calm
