How do i respond to such a question!

[Magicsilence]

“Have you noticed that all the girls you see on campus are ugly?”

WHAT am I supposed to say back to something like THAT!!

Also, there was an “Islam awareness” stall in the building where we had lectures, and the same guy turned to me and muttered “religous nutters”. I havent really talked to him much before, and he doesnt know I am Catholic.

He asks me now every time I see him “Are you going out tonight?”, which means getting drunk and going to lust over girls. So, i always reply “No”, but… when he eventually says “Well, why not”, what do I say?

Lord Help me.

In Christ.

If you feel like be rude, you could say, “Have you noticed that all the guys who comment on ugliness of girls on campus are really shallow?”

 

[wcknight]

Just say “no”, a lot of the girls you see are quite beautiful and not everything is about good looks. People have an inner beauty and having a nice personality, a good sense of humor and just being a nice person is so much better than just good looks.

And as to why you don’t want to go out get plastered and chase girls, just say, I have more important things to do with my time and my life, than to go out and get smashed or have gratuitous sex.

He will make fun of you and call you all sorts of names, BUT that is part of what being a good Catholic is all about. Jesus tells us, the world hated Him and the world will mistreat us as well.

Why are you being so judgemental Joe? Don’t you know it’s wrong to be judgmental. (Being “judgmental” is what liberals always slap religious people with… turn it back on him).

Well, because I have no interest in getting and oggling women. I can think of much better things to do with my time. Would you like to go to Adoration with me? (ha!)

You can say, “Well what I meant to say was: ‘No I am not going out with you tonight or going to any place where you might be hanging out.’ Any other questions?” That should settle it fairly quickly. He’ll either say nothing or ask why. If the latter - tell him directly why.

Sounds like you need to find a new friend to hang out with.

 

[Wolseley]

Reminds me of when I was in college, and all the frat boys kept pestering me to join a fraternity.

I told them repeatedly that I was not interested, and one of them finally got belligerant and asked me why, and I replied, “Because the behavior of the members of fraternities are my constant reminder that Darwin was right.”

He just stood there, blinking. I think it went over his head, but he seemed to stop soliciting me after that.

Hi Andre

I would say, no thanks I am reading my bible tonight or if you are going to a bible study on campus, say no thanks, I am going to a bible study with some of those ugly women on campus.

AMEN!

Dorothy:

AMEN!

!! Hes not my friend.

We do the same course, and he always comes over to say hi.

Hes a bit older than me too, mid twenties, so he is a late student.

Besides, the point is, I shouldnt just reject this person because he is not perfect but bring Him to the Truth. Is that not my duty?

In Christ.

Okay, I understand. You don’t seek him out, circumstances bring you together. Yes, it is your duty to desire to bring him to the Truth, so pray for the courage to give him the answers he needs to hear when he questions you.

Peace and Prayers,

Dorothy

“Actually no, but I had noticed the sadly superficial state of a lot of college students, particularly men”

I’d have to know the guy to make a witty retort to this one.

This happens to me all the time because I occasionally go out to bars but I don’t drink or order anything. Someone got on my case once and I popped out with one:

“Don’t you think that it is somewhat ironic that we’re sitting here drinking carelessly when the same amount of money that we spend on a single beer could provide food for a starving family in Africa for a month, and then we scorn and laugh at people who think Americans are boorish and stupid?”

Nobody there liked me much after that so I think that I did my job.

I don’t know if that helps, but at least you know there are people out there that think the same way you do. College is a trying time; you gotta be strong to make it.

Sure there is. I’ve met them. I’ve seen them. Jack Elam, anyone?

The issue isn’t whether or not there are physically unattractive people. The issue is that those who judge others based on looks are, at best, pathetic.

I’m so glad I went to college after I stopped being a child. No thirteenth grade for me. I’m suddenly reminded of being pestered by a college kid, who was at least five years my junior, about running for a student government position.

“It’ll really good on your resume’!” he exclaimed.

“Bob, I joined the Army when I was 17. I have 8 years real work experience on three continents. Student council on my resume’ would just look silly.”

But I digress. To the OP: Sounds like your “friend” is a jerk. Now the question is this: Why associate with him?
