zombie jesus!

it’s a resurection, bitches!
didn’t ya just LOVE easter?
i got two extra days off work, paid, for doing absolutely nothing.
i actually forget that there’s still religious people around sometimes. it’s true. i really only surround myself with atheists and agnostics, and don’t spend a whole heap of time pondering if there’s a father figure in the sky, so i honestly forget that there’s still people that actually believe all that jazz.
the closest i got to religion this weekend were the following:
- deciding that if jesus rose from the dead, then he must be zombie jesus on the hunt for brains, tee hee
- yelling out drunkenly: “it’s a resurrection, bitches!” because i watch too much chapell show
- muttering “thank god for the long weekend” while intoxicated and/or hungover
- and telling my grandma how cute it was that she still goes to church to try and save our souls. hey, she’s almost 80 years old. she likes church. it’s weird, but i’m not going to try to convince her otherwise. she’s old, she can do what she wants.
anyways, i was on facebook this morning reading a blog of a girl i used to be friends with in school, and she has gone super christian. and to be honest, it’s fucking creepy. the whole blog thing was all “he is risen” and shit… do people actually believe this? i mean, i know people “believe“, but do they actually BELIEVE that those things actually happened the way they are described? does this girl, that i used to be close friends with, actually believe that a guy died and then rose from the dead like a zombie jesus? i dunno… seems to me that if you’re going to believe in zombies, you should probably do it in the “dawn of the dead” style where it’s because of a virus or something.
anyways, to each their own and so on… but i gotta say, when people tell me they believe in god, i look at them kinda the same way i do when people tell me that nickelback is their favorite band. kind of like, “oh, that’s nice. you’re not very smart and don’t know much about the world… and i’ll “respect” your decision, but i might make fun of you when you leave. and we likely won’t be good friends. because if i have to hear about jesus or mr jesus-hair chad kroeger, then it’s friendship off.”
(and yes, i do know that i’m quite the judgmental bitch)

yeah i wanna know who you’re talking about so we can laugh about it together.
but, um, since i believe in god, does that mean we can’t be friends anymore?

well obviously it doesn’t really come up in conversation, so i’ll let it slide

I got a text message from a friend who I never talk to on a weekly basis last Friday night at Midnight asking if my babes and I wanted to go to church with her and her husband the following morning. I was slighlty offended and extremely annoyed that she would text me on a Friday night at midnight to ask me about church. She thinks I need to be saved.
I don’t mack anyone who devotes their entire life to God. I just don’t like when it makes me feel inferior when it is pushed on me. I don’t think I am less of a person because I don’t follow the same beliefs as a hard core church person. I also don’t push my own thoughts on anyone else. I also don’t pass judgement. People are crazy, dude! I think this is another reason why our nation is so segregated.
