Christians, prove your minds aren't molested by fear.

So to prove it, I want you to find a picture of a loved one, preferably your child if you have one, if not any close and beloved family member will do.

Then I want you to stab the picture in the eyes and face repeatedly with a knife whilst repeating "I hope you get cancer and die in lingering terror and agony in a puddle of your own excrement". Obviously the picture is just a picture and since you don't ACTUALLY hope they get cancer and die, that doesn't matter. Then I'll believe you're not superstitious

My family photos fall into two categories: digital, or those printed from film that I can't guarantee I still have. And the digital ones cost an arm and a leg to print out. I'm not defacing something irreplaceable or expensive to replace. Imagining doing it just made me feel angry at the idea of losing either family history or dollars out of my pocket. Why does inkjet ink cost so fucking much?

And if lots of people do it, that makes it OK.

She didn't say it was "ok" - she said it was just average. As in people do it. Not that because they do it, it's right.
