Truth in Television

OK, first, how good was Veronica?! Fabulous.

Also, as relates to Gilmore and Desperate Housewives, let's be honest about the way sex works. Women are on the pill (hello, Gilmore) and when things get messed up, morning-after pills and abortions exist. I am so sick of television being too wussy to admit that. Lorelei would be on the pill, for sure, and she would have been a great candidate for the morning-after pill. As for Gabby, there is no doubt in mind that, were she a real person, she would have kept the pregnancy quiet and made her way to a clinic to "take care" of matters. TV's too scared of this stupid right-wing "leadership" (leading me to another country?) to admit that. Whatever.

And ... a quiz says I'm agnostic. Hmmm...

You scored as agnosticism. You are an agnostic. Though it is generally taken that agnostics neither believe nor disbelieve in God, it is possible to be a theist or atheist in addition to an agnostic. Agnostics don't believe it is possible to prove the existence of God (nor lack thereof).

Agnosticism is a philosophy that God's existence cannot be proven. Some say it is possible to be agnostic and follow a religion; however, one cannot be a devout believer if he or she does not truly believe.

Considering those three years of my life studying theology, I am heaving a sigh of relief at the following statement: "You scored as Christianity" as well as the fact that I scored 0% for Satanism.

Your views are most similar to those of Christianity. Do more research on Christianity and possibly consider being baptized and accepting Jesus, if you aren't already Christian. Christianity is the second of the Abrahamic faiths; it follows Judaism and is followed by Islam. It differs in its belief of Jesus, as not a prophet nor historical figure, but as God in human form. The Holy Trinity is the concept that God takes three forms: the Father, the Son (Jesus), and the Holy Ghost (sometimes called Holy Spirit). Jesus taught the idea of instead of seeking revenge, one should love his or her neighbors and enemies. Christians believe that Jesus died on the cross to save humankind and forgive people's sins.
