oh my god

my f'n mother..i swear.

ok she just found out that my uncle's wife is an athiest and she's freaking out because my little cousin (he's like 3) isn't going to have "God" in his life and she just went on and on about how it's "WRONG" and "he needs to be brought up with some sort of belief system BLA BLA BLA BLA" which, i'm not saying i disagree with, but it's NOT HER KID, it's her nephew, and it's my UNCLE'S job to try to work something out with HIS WIFE and HIS SON...

i mean am i right or am i right?

god, she fucking thinks everyone in the world has to see things her way or they're wrong.

+ fucking one.

Forcing a belief system on a three year old is straight brainwashing...should be against the law IMO...

I'm not being funny, but is this a common occurance in America? I mean whenever I see interviews on TV after a major disaster, like the twin towers being hit for example, they will always say something along the lines of "now is a time to pray for the victims / god is with us, etc."

You have every right (supposedly) in the USA (i'm American't, we don't believe in other countries) to believe in what you believe in unless your rights are infringed. Everyone can do what they want.

I dont think that is true at all. I was brought up going to church every sunday, but im not really a believer now. Its good to know both sides of the story and be able to make your own mind up. I would take my kids to church for the exact same reason, but if they didnt want to go i wouldnt mind.


Posted by butterfly on Jun-22-2005 16:32:

it's not surprising for her to worry because it is normal to fear the unknown. but i have to say i disagree with the issue. i grew up without god in my life and i turned out just fine.


Posted by Slylee on Jun-22-2005 16:34:

i come from a pretty strict irish catholic family (my mom's side..no shit?!), but i wouldn't call myself a devout catholic at all. i'd like to believe there's a higher power and that something pleasant happens to our souls when we die. i'm extremely interested in evolution too, but i mean there's no telling whether or not evolution is the works of "God"...but whatever that's besides the point.

my mother was raised catholic and she's very intelligent to say the least, but when she pulls shit like this, i get disappointed in her. talk about narrow-minded..jeez. she really gets annoyed when i don't agree with her or when ANYONE doesn't agree with her.. she needs to lighten up.

i am really amazed that she isn't looking at this situation objectively and recognizing the boundaries that she should not be overstepping.

i mean yea, she can express her views to my uncle because it's her brother, but from her tone she is like on a mission to MAKE him talk to his wife...

great, this is going to be a fun weekend! (i'm driving up to tampa with her to visit this uncle and his family).

lol

i'm bringing an oz of weed and a bottle of stoli vanilla. hahahah

Yea but it appears to me that religion is rammed down their throats so whether they have the right or not, most usually end up feeling quite strongly about it anyway. I have met quite a few Americans over the last few years and a few of them seemed a bit shocked about the lack of seriousness with regards to religion we have. Other than weddings and christenings I have never stepped foot in a church in my life.

let me clarify...i am not saying that my mother is wrong for having that opinion...she is entitled to it, just as you are entitled to your beliefs (and expect them to be respected, right?)....

i'm saying it's wrong of her to but in and make it her business.

I like to think the evolution stuff can fit in with the bible's story of creation, but thats an entirely different discussion

It's pretty much like that in all very conservative cultures though. Look at the less develloped countries of the middle east, for example.

yeah i feel stifled by the amount of religion around me sometimes, but i just remind myself that it would be a lot worse if i didnt live where i live. i think in some parts of the us religion is far more dominant than it is here. people try to push god on me more than i would like and i dont know if there is anything that offends me more.


Posted by Slylee on Jun-22-2005 16:42:

alright well just as long as you know that my mother's sexual activity (or lack there of i should say) has nothign to do with this, i just found that comment out of left field and irrelevant.


yea she's totally being narrow-minded and i know plenty of you will agree, but my god...easy people! it's my mommy and she drives me nuts, but i still love her... have some respect please.



Posted by M@t on Jun-22-2005 16:43:

It would be interesting to compare the crime statistics between a country where religious beliefs are commonplace, and one where there is little
Im not inferring anything, just wondering

Of course, not all Christians are blind or close minded.

And what's so stupid about religion? Is it bad to promote peace?

And no. Religions don't start wars. Stupid people and propoganda do.


Posted by kossack on Jun-22-2005 16:45:

haha, thought this was going to become a battle thread for a second.

i totally agree with you on this on sly. that might be because i come from an atheist family, but yeh, i don't think that others should really be using things like family ties and guilt to push religious beliefs on others. as long as the parents aren't restricting the kid's access to christian beliefs or whatever, wtf, let them choose to be parents as they see fit. if there really is a god, let him decide. if not, then nobody really has to worry. then again, what if the hindus or buddhists have it right? (i'll steer away from a theological debate.)

and hey, tell her at least they're not converted wiccans or something...
