This post was not made to make fun of anyone’s religious beliefs. I believe more like the Native Americans do that nature controls the Universe and our lives. I recently had a very nice older couple come to our door trying to save my soul. They were very polite. When they started to inform me how a certain prophet could make my life better I began to inform them that I appreciated their trying to help people by spreading their beliefs but I don’t believe in what the were selling. Like I said I respect everyone’s beliefs and do not try to push mine on anyone else. They continued to try to have me come over to their side. After a few minutes of this I decided to inform them how in the past two years what our family has been through. I told them how my Son Paul was killed and how he died and less than 3 months later my Father died. They looked kind shocked. After a few minutes of a rant I apologized for dropping all that on them and that I respected their views but it wasn’t for me. They politely said goodbye, turned around and got out as soon as they could.
I found these religious comics that people post on Facebook. So Blame them not me.
Good Morning Gloucester 
Doesn’t it just make you want to explode with rage when someone tells you that a horrible tragedy was “All part of God’s plan” as if they have any idea? I can’t imagine going through what your family has been through. People like that are well intentioned, but occasionally misguided. Namaste, and stuff.

I saw a bumper sticker I really like — hope it doesn’t hurt anyone’s feelings, because that’s not my intent — it read “Science flies people to the moon, religion flies people into buildings.” God, whatever he/she/it may be, might have a plan, but if so it is no more for us to know than the scientist’s lab experiment is to a petri dish. I do appreciate the fact that there are people who are sincerely concerned about the state of my soul, but it’s my business and no one else’s. That doesn’t mean I can’t use the help!

This is the whole reason for two-eyes, two-ears, and only one mouth…Each person owns what they do and believe – you did the right thing by speaking from your heart…we all have a higher power we reach to when times are difficult whatever you choose to call.
“The time will soon be here when my grandchild will long for the cry of a loon, the flash of a salmon, the whisper of spruce needles, or the screech of an eagle. But he will not make friends with any of these creatures and when his heart aches with longing he will curse me. Have I done all to keep the air fresh? Have I cared enough about the water? Have I left the eagle to soar in freedom? Have I done everything I could to earn my grandchild’s fondness?”
-Chief Dan George-(1899 – 1981)
