I think I've officially "had it!" with all the crucifixion re-enactments all over the world on TV.  :foottap:

What is up with that!? Do people get some sort of sick pleasure out of re-enacting the torture of another human being/"son of a god"? Can someone tell me the purpose of watching this every year until I die!?
WHY!?....WHY!?...WHY!!!?...WHY!? WHY!?....WHY!?...WHY!!!?...WHY!?

Help me [understand], Ecurb Noselrub-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope, please!

I thought my cousin's play was silly. When they started using actual cat o' nine tails on the guy playing Jesus all I could think was, "you brought your kids to see this?" And there were people behind me before it started saying the play was "about love". Not to mention the voice over guy at the beginning saying God was trying to get people's attention by causing natural disasters. What a fucking pompous thing to say. Such a supreme being lashes out for attention like a child.

I'll just leave this here.

If religions were TV channels atheism is turning the TV off.

Remember, your inability to grasp science is not a valid argument against it.

I say bring the war on. I hate Spring, there's nothing to celebrate about it.  >:(

So, no frollicking and gambolling in your field then, Harmonie?
