I was at a wedding a few years back and the ceremony included a mass (UGH!). As the ceremony concluded, the priest said something like, "Now remember! Today's mass doesn't count towards your weekly obligation. I expect to see everyone back here tomorrow." (I really had to stop myself from yelling, "You won't see me, asshole!")
This had me scratching my head. Why doesn't a mass at a wedding count? It's still a mass! Why do you have to return the VERY NEXT DAY? Then it hit me.... You can't pass the plate at a wedding! The fuckers want you to come back so they can get you to drop money in the basket!
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
