i noticed today that i entirely check out mentally when someone starts talking about jesus or pretty much any religious belief... like, i normally watch baby story now that i am on bed rest. i like to make fun of people. i know. it's mean. i don't much care though how mean i am these days. i watch and make fun of people who choose stupid names for their kids or who just seem like simpletons.

anyway.

today's people met in church. and they had two miscarriages before this child. and they said "we believe jesus has blessed us with this child" which i suppose is all nice and everything. but don't you then have to believe that jesus cursed you with two miscarriages? like, if jesus loves you and gave you this gift, isn't it the same guy who let the other two go?

like, anything that is good is a gift from g-d but if it is bad, it's just a tragedy.

so i walked out. i mean, without even thinking about it. i stopped watching pretty much at the word jesus. i got up and left.

it made me think a bit though - i do that all the time. i just check out mentally if someone starts talking about the lord and how he saved them from whatever.

it's probably wrong. but then. i'm a bitch. so who cares?
