It's basically a breakfast show where they do all sorts of pointless shit and occasionally talk about a bit of news going on in the world and whatever. On it they had a couple of American guests. But they weren't ordinary American guests, they were conjoined twins, and by the head no less.
Apparently they are the oldest conjoined twins in the world.
When asked if they ever considered living life without the other person (seperately) they (or at least the talkative one) came out with the stock Christian answer, 'God made us this way for a reason'.
I don't know about anyone else but this actually makes me sick. Seeing this kind of abnormality, and I mean no disrespect to the people either, would only strengthen my view that no god can exist, and at the very least he is a sick and twisted asshole.
The fact that these two people believe that god made them like this, and it is perfectly acceptable for him to do so is in my mind, crazy. It just goes to show the real brainwashing mentality of religion itself.
Does anyone else think this? Or am I on my own here?
"God has a plan" my fucking anus.

Correct of course: "no god can exist, and at the very least he is a sick and twisted asshole."
At the same time, though, I think these girls' lives would be even more hell, for them, if they didn't believe in that cock and bull story. They would kill themselves. Religion apparently makes it possible for them to accept their situation as is. Separation is not an option for them. It would kill both.
So this situation is one of the very, very few where I can see religion having an acceptable effect, however misguided it is.
