> > This isn't to say that my attitudes haven't been influenced by non-Christians and that I haven't fallen, because that wouldn't be true. I can be sarcastic and cynical. My sense of humor, at least at school, can turn sexual. I've struggled with cursing. You could argue, and I know some people will, that this is a result of the "evil influences" of public school. If I didn't spend all day every day around non-Christians, maybe I wouldn't struggle with these things.

> I can't help but be offended by this, eventhough I probably shouldn't be. You're replacing "immoral" with "non-Christian". That just doesn't seem right to me. Being non-Christian doesn't automatically make you an evil, vulgar, and perverted person. If I'm mistaken about what you're trying to say, I'm sorry, but that's what it seems like you're implying.

Okay, I didn't mean it that way. I'm sorry. Let me try again... just about all of my friends at school curse, and have VERY sexual senses of humor, and a lot of them drink and smoke and do drugs and sleep around. Most of my friends at church do none of these things... so it's just a correlation in my mind. I know lots of non-Christians who ARE "good people".... maybe you're still offended, and if you are, well, I'm sorry, but I can't oput it any better than that.
