Care group and bible discussions

I am not going for anymore care group and bible discussions.It is not the fault of anyone in any care group that I don't want to go. I few things comes to mind....

1) I tend to get irritated by people that don't seem to talk sense.

Yes, I am not judging those people. It is just that when I hear people trying to explain things that seems to contradict the bible there is this tension in me that gets me somewhat irritated.... I don't know why. Usually I just keep quiet but after a while it just becomes a drag on me.

2) You tend to get this person that can elaborate with 10000 words a point that can be explained in 20 words or less.

Yes these people will talk and talk and talk just to explain a simple and well understood point. I don't get why can't people get straight to the point without repeating and quoting examples after examples as if the listeners are mental retards. Don't get me wrong, I don't get offended by them I am just really bored hearing them.

3) I learn a lot more about God studying the bible by myself

Yes I can go at my own pace and I can customize the way I study the bible. Besides I feel closer to God reading the bible as I pray. Something you can't do in a group bible study.

4) I rather socialize with Christians outside bible studies.

As I said bible studies with a group of christians is usually painfully boring to me. Studying the bible by myself brings me closer to God because of my alone time with God and His words.

Sure there will be some christian brothers and sisters that might despise me for my decisions but hey that will probably help me with to get friends I prefer. Well hopefully.
