Quote from: "kimmance"I was at the passport office several years ago when a young woman came in and started harassing the agent because she'd just received her passport in the mail. Apparently what upset her was that her name appeared in ALL CAPS.

Evidently, according to her, this is entirely offensive because only GOD can have HIS name in ALL CAPS. So, she wanted one reissued and grew even more angry as the woman told her they only make passports one way...

The worst part was the passport staffer said, "ma'am, I get this complaint a lot, but there's nothing we can do."

I don't know WTF is wrong with these people, but in addition to not capitalizing 'god', you can apparently also piss them off by fully capitalizing THEIR NAME.  He he...

Now THAT is bizarre! Why, oh why, must people continue to live so willfully in ignorance? This is just painful to think about.

The best way to make religious persons to piss off is to be cool, calm, fresh and tell them with smile on your face that you do not have a religion and there's no god. Have a nice day.
