Unfortunately, too many religious folk spurred on by the efficient propaganda of ubercapitalist American ethics think that because they believe, you should too. It worked for them, which means it works for everyone! "Join the team, be one with god"

It's not that I don't believe, or that I don't care. I just haven't been given an honest non-visceral reaction to the question, "can you prove god even exists?" One could ask why bananas are yellow with the same sincerity and these folks would proceed to have a breakdance competition on your face and then have the audacity to pray for YOUR heathen soul as if ineptitude and complacency were merely an undotted 'i' in the grammar of religion.

I wish more people felt the way you did.

I know he meant well, but by the end of the conversation I was tempted to walk into oncoming traffic.

By the way, I saw someone wearing that Spongebob watch and it made me think of you. If these Rachel relapses get any stronger, I'm going to have to take the train up there.

I was tempted to say that, but I figured it would only get me into deeper trouble.

I wouldn't mind at all.

I'll add you too.
