Your brother as you say was a Christian so obviously there was a Christian funeral.
I don't see why you should get upset about it.
Live and let live ......believe or not believe.
If I should worry every time someone say or does something that don't follow with my beliefs I
would have gone already insane.
To be upset for your brother death is natural but getting upset for what other people think or follow is not
a great idea.

I do take your point.

Christianity in America, especially where I live in the South, is a dick of a religion, and it is everywhere in my face day in and day out.  Bible verse stickers placed on the back and or front of traffic street signs, someone painting "Jesus" or "Jesus Loves You" on wooden signs and nailing them on telephone polls, even saw a humongous figure of Jesus painted on the side of a barn.  "In God We Trust" on the back end of people's license plates, paid for with my tax dollars.  I really don't care what anyone believes in for themselves, all I ask of people is to remove their penis out of my face and put it back in their pants.  I do not want to see that shit.

Walk in my shoes for a while then you might see why I get upset.


I may be lucky in the sense that here in Brisbane we do not have so many religious fanatics except for the occasional Jehovah witness or Mormons that maybe twice a year knock at my door but I still have other types of problems.
I got some of my neighbors that barbecue the meat and the smell for a vegetarian like me is horrendous
plus dog barking here and there so at the end i think is impossible to live in peace whether we are bored by religions, dog barking or anything else.
Life on earth wasn't meant to be easy Elf.   Smile
