A bad day.
July 11, 2011 at 6:46 pm
So, I'm not exactly sure where this should go but I'll put it here for now.
---
My sister kicked me out of her house.
Because I'm an atheist.
She got my mom to tell me. She couldn't say it to me directly.
And that's just another example of how religion is making my life hell.
--
Thanks for listening.

Sucks to be you eh?
Maybe the day will come when she will really really need a favor, place to stay, food or whatever and you can say;
"Jeez... I'd love to help, but you're one of those damned christians."
I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.

Wow, that is cold. So much for religious compassion.

Sorry to tell you brotha... your sister is a grade-A bitch.

and your mom is no prize, either.
There is nothing that can be done with people who prefer fantasy to reality. They're hopeless.

How sad that imaginary friends are more important than their family.
Jesus, in one of his more horrid moments, admonished his followers to value him more than his family.

Love your enemies as yourself, as long as they're not of the wrong faith.. Or any faith at all '-_-
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

I would offer the possibility that there are other issues involved. It's likely that your sister has chosen your atheism as a focal point to avoid discussing those issues, a discussion which may be uncomfortable to her for whatever reason. In any case, sucks that things have gone down the way that they have, but at least this gives you the opportunity to cut loose and make a place your own.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

So what are you going to do now? Do you have another place to stay?
