It'd be nice to have something to blame.
Also, I do wonder how a lot of people deal with having friends/family who don't believe.
I mean, if I believed, truly believed, that if you didn't follow my god and go to my church, you would BURN IN SUFFERING FOR ALL ETERNITY, I'd be a bad person if I didn't spend all my time trying to convert people.
I know the hardline Muslims get a lot of bad press but at least they're honest about their beliefs, not this CofE Tea and Cakes 'oh it's all fine we can be a multi faith society' bullshit. Bring back the hellfire and damnation, that's what I say.

at least they have courage in their convictions. The CofE and other watered down religions simply undermine themselves as they evolve.

I tell a vicar I don't believe and he should be trying to convert me, telling me I'll be damned if I don't. Instead it's all hugs, handshakes and weak smiles.
I think people crave absolutes, they want someone bellowing fire and hell from the pulpit, not 'and remember Thursday night we have Gerry who'll be giving us a talk about his pigeons.'
It's become a WI offshoot these days.

There's something to be said about that.

The CofE wouldn't be so fucking prissy now, would it?

And the one about all those celebrities making a mockery of marriage.
