They all need to go back to their trailer parks and wait for the next tornado. I saw one of those teabagger cars parked at McDonalds last night. Complete with a McCain/Palin sticker AND a huge "where's the birth certificate" sticker. I was sorry that I had forgotten to put my rocket launcher in my purse before I left home...
I see my mother doing similar things with her health. She seems to be willing to accept that it's all part of "Gods plan". It is heartbreaking to see my mother throw her life away but she has been severely brainwashed by my father. He has ruled her for their entire marriage. He used to be a player and a drunk, now he is a Jesus freak and he is killing my mother by proxy. It's a shame she lost her ability to think outside of the bible. I wish she would come back to reality and stop knocking on the pearly gates. Things like this are what really piss me off about religion. Those of us who have stepped back and looked at it for what it really is understand how insane it is. Yet real people die from religion everyday. My mother is a real person and she will die because of some "make it up as you go" book. I bet she also feels that she is ill because she did something wrong in "God's eyes". How sad is that? People suffering from serious illness ALSO have to feel bad because they think they are being punished by Gawd. It's all so twisted. I added to her grief because I'm an atheist. She is very distressed over it because she thinks the devil got me. doh!
See I can't figure out why the republithumps even bother with health care. Why don't they just pray away anything that is wrong with them? If they would stay out of the health care system and stay in their churches, there would be more money to spend on those who need health care. Seriously, do they lack the faith to rely solely on their god for healing? I mean they pray during a health crisis while accepting a man made treatment for their illness. A treatment based on science...not unicorns. It seems to me they need to have more faith and stop defying their god by seeking a "back up" method.
