People
categorize
thing
s. It's a
fact of life
, because it
help
s us make sense of our
world
. But some people take it way
too far
and only
construct
identities
for other people (and often, themselves as well) based on what categories those people fit in. I once told a
Catholic
nun
that I was a
deist
(which,
in and of itself
, isn't totally
true
), and she went
nuts
trying to figure out
exact
ly what I
believe
d; she still didn't
comprehend
that the
Bible
means
next to nothing
to me after our
conversation
. Not all
Catholics
are the same; not all
geek
s are the same; when you
get right down to it
,
every single one of us is a totally unique entity
. So
watch your back
for
stereotype
s and
over-generalization
s; before you know it, you might just be
stuffed
into a
category
not of your choosing.
