sixwordstories | (no subject)

I spoke to Mod 1 about this before posting this, and I felt that with this potentially touchy subject of this episode, we need a place to be CLEAR. A place to clarify that none of us are furthering a personal agenda and all our comments are based on the characters rather than our own personal feelings.

The last thing we want is wank guys.

For the record: I'm with Kurt on most things, and Kurt is Kurt, but I respect everyone's beliefs and none of my comments are my own personal stabs at anything.

Love, Kurt-mun

Seconded! Especially since Santana has been on the attack lately. Er. Though I suppose she is also that way normally...

♥ I appreciate this post A LOT. For me, this episode echoed a lot of personal battles I have with faith-- my heart does believe in a higher power, and I'm fundamentally Jewish, but I definitely separate that from Rachel's... crazy neurotic-ness.

If you ever have a question about where she or I are coming from in a particular scene, related to this or not, PLEASE don't hesitate to PM me!

Also, our fandom is so kick-ass. Just throwing that out there.

I'm glad! I felt it super necessary.

And yes, yes it is. We're epic.

♥ Hugs for Kurt, ok. In case Rachel can't give them.

Cheers to that.

He appreciates it ♥

I second Rachel-mun, this post was a definite necessity after an episode like that.
Personally, I believe that anything that gives someone comfort is a good thing. I'm...not quite sure yet what Tina specifically believes because the writers were oh-so clear about it, but I suppose God figures into it, obviously.
Tina's pretty nice overall though, so I don't foresee her saying anything...on purpose. Possibly out of suprise, though, like what happened today. Either way, I try to be as clear as possible.

ironically, this is actually, in my opinion ,the best ep they've done so far. ^^ The played it rather well, and as a gay guy Kurts feelings were more or less quite how I felt. Well played.

Oh, it was definitely the best episode they've done so far. As a self-decided atheist I felt the same way about Kurt's feelings, it worked exceedingly well. Doesn't make it any less touchy in RP though.

Truely. Sam feels for Kurt <3 He'll get a hug and a kiss next time he seems him. Not entirely sure what Sams beliefs are though.

He'd greatly appreciate that, he needs it right now. He feels rather ostracized by his friends.

Yeah, I was lucky, I guess. I had a feeling he was an atheist but I couldn't be sure if I was projecting or not until now.

This is really strange. I'm doing my advance degree in performing arts.And a few weeks ago we had to come up with certain "risks" we'd have playing certain characters. I have this weird relationship with religion and the whole concept of god. So I tackled that.

And yet, still a atheist.

[Sam hugs Kurt tightly, with his one good arm]

It's not too surprising. I mean, what you really believe is hard to manually change, even if you're actively trying. I'm an art history major, which means always talking about Jesus and saints and christian patronage, but it has no real effect on me aside from being fun stories.

[Kurt will take it as willingly as he can. That cast will get drawn on when he's less depressed.]

I actually have a lot of friends of who believe in one faith or another. Which, makes for interesting conversion. But at the end of the day, I have a hard time dealing with something that fundamentally says I shouldn't exist. My uncle was gay, and my very christian grandparents found out, the took him to a priest to try and get him exorcised. But, strangely enough. There still good people, even if they struggle with the lifestyle, they try.

[Have a quick kiss Kurt and a "I'm sorry" whispered in your ear]

Sooo yeah, I'm way too lazy to log out and back in. You know who I am. XD I have to say, I adore you anyway, but even moreso for making this post and thinking/caring about how people might take everything that's said in regards to this episode, because not many people would.

While my own beliefs more closely parallel Kurt's, we obviously all know that Quinn's uber-religious. I think it's important to note though, that while she got upset during that little ~debate~ in the beginning, and was at the hospital to pray for Mr. Hummel, she never really tried to push her beliefs down anybody's throat.

So that's pretty much how I'll be playing it. Everybody knows what she believes, and that's never going to change, but she won't ever try to ~convert~ anyone. XD Although that'd be pretty hard to do when you're only given two lines an episode.

And I honestly didn't intend for that to be so long. Sorry, hon! I tend to ramble.

♥♥♥

Same, a friend of mine is head of the christian students organization, actually, among other friends who believe other things. I just have trouble believing in anything that supports discrimination against anyone (Though it's really the system not the religion itself insert influences rant here)). I would go into more detail but I don't want to dig myself into a hole here on a public forum. The last thing I want to do is offend anyone.

[He's just going to nod a thank you into Sam's chest, tense as hell. He won't be relaxed for some time, nope.]

♥♥♥ This post is made of win. Seriously, thanks for posting this.

Now. Please excuse Finn's stupidity and mild insensitivity. It's genetic.

I think my point was, it was a good ep, I went in thinking I wouldn't, and it surprised me. It's possible I just was still annoyed from the last Britney ep, which I thought was a tad pointless. But still, they treated the subject with grace and understanding. And I loved Sue in this ep, she played it perfectly.

[Sam's just going to a good... ~~boyfriend?~~ friend and hug him tightly, now was'nt really the time to ask what they were]

You're welcome! I felt it necessary, wank is far too easy on the internet.

Oh Finn. I excuse you--sometimes. Kurt's just going through a thing. Getting over Finn wasn't easy.

Never apologize! Rambling is good. I felt like I needed to make this post, because wank is far too easy in this situation, and we don't want that.

Right. She didn't. Unlike Mercedes....

Yeah, I love Mercedes, but she just refused to let it go! And I understand that she was just trying to help, but WOW.

She succeeded at making Kurt feel guilty AND uncomfortable.

Agreed entirely. Sue was amazing.

[He's trying not to cry, he's really not, but he's going to cry on Sam now, kay? This was what he needed but no one gave him.]

Which, you know, is exactly what you need when your dad's unconcious in a hospital bed.

For Sure. Misunderstandings and hurt feelings are no fun!

Pfft! You can't not excuse him! He's too adorkable! Yeah, getting over one sided crushes suck, particularly when that person continues too be just as nice.
