I think it's pretty normal to be more vocal about the daft religions we grew up with, we understand the context, the culture, how it affects society. None of my Mrs' family are awful, nasty, obnoxious muslims parading their beliefs in my face, they're christians. Her grandad honestly thinks all poofs should be taken out and shot, all catholics sent to Ireland. All of them. Church elder. Respected man in his community. I don't apologise for having a problem with christianity! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Der Kaiser Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 It's amazing the huge coincidence of religion and geography.....born in a certain country and it just happens that the right god has saturated the market there. He really does work in mysterious ways. Praise the lord....or lords....or lady......or maybe they don't identify as a gender.....praise them all the less.....

I wish a study was done correlating religion and place of birth. I guess though we'd still be stuck with the same problem: People who compartmentalise and ignore reality as needed to maintain their god delusion.

felix Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 As Christopher Hitchens said on religion and geography : Why, after 80,000 yrs of humans miserable existence , did the son of god appear at that time, and to the most backward, superstitious tribes, in the most barren, illiterate area of the world, where all subsequent revelations happened , and which became the new birthplace of salvation and right & wrong. Not in China or the Indus Valley for example , where reading and maths had already developed . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is the Lord today? Flew down to Florida on Saturday for my aunt's funeral. She could be hard to be around at times but also raised a gigantic amount of money through the church for food for immigrant farmworker kids. She also ran the annual fundraiser at the church for Heifer International and did it so well that Heifer flew folks out to see her to find out how she did it. The flights back were totally messed so I ended up catching the first leg, renting a car at 1 in the morning (because our trains are beyond shit), driving to my parents' house, sleeping for four hours, then driving the rest of the way to make it to church so I could watch the kids. Fortunately there were at least a dozen folks willing to jump in and help with our baby (who has pink eye so couldn't go to the church nursery where he usually spends Sunday morning) and several more ready to console me for my family's loss, my wretched travel, and my lack of sleep, and to bring me coffee. No one has seen God, as the Gospel of John says. Just some folks trying to do their best, falling short, and trying some more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
