Sounds like you live in paradise!

The last time I witnessed delusion was at a funeral. My nan is religious and arranged a priesty to have religious singing involved. I just stood there and made a few funny faces to make my little sis laugh. Took a quick blimps of some kind of book that was filled with shite and dropped it on the floor. I didn't think it was worthy to be anywhere else (apart from the bin). Tongue
Just entertaining my self by mocking religion.Big Grin

I know what you mean. I've been to several funerals that were held in a church and mass was conducted as part of the ceremony. I can't stand the constant stand... sit... stand... sit.... etc... I'll stand and sit (although I always make it a point to be THE LAST person to stand) but I absolutely refuse to kneel. Nor do I participate when the sheep go up to get their cracker.

One funeral I attended had the priest telling us some bullshit about how we had to pray for the deceased because "God" would hear the prayers and this would help the deceased to get into heaven! Oh, did I have to bite my tongue! I wanted to ask this dipshit how he could possibly know something like this for a FACT. And speaking of dipshits.... another time I was at a wedding that included a mass as part of the service. At one point, the priest tells us that this mass "doesn't count" toward the weekly worship obligation. He then said, "So I expect to see all of you here tomorrow!" I wanted to yell out, "Ya won't be seeing me, asshole!" I wondered why the mass at the wedding "didn't count" for the weekly worship obligation, until I realized that you can't pass the plate at a wedding! It's all about money, isn't it?
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?
