man, today i went to my boss's mom's funeral, and they're christian. so, it kinda sucked.
even thought they're UCC and have a female minister... man.
stuff like "the lily is uniquely a christian symbol" and I was like wtf??? cuz, farziknow, lily is the lotus, and they both are sacred in western and eastern traditions.
and stuff like we all celebrate easter, christians and non-christians, but it's super-special to christians cuz it means something, cuz Jesus is risen... umm. paganism, hello... the EARTH is waking!
man.
i just wanted to jump up and argue with her. i know, that's really sad that I'm so antagonistic that way.
all i'm saying is, nobody ever better have somebody saying shit like that when i'm buried. Talk about how my body will go back to nature. how my memory can carry on. but don't say i'm gonna be in some fucking fluffy cloud in the sky. I may BE a fluffy cloud in the sky, or rather some of my hydrogen and oxygen atoms will eventually make their way there to be a cloud, but I will not be UP there as me, slaving away all day long, singing bullshit songs to some egotistical maniacal fuck.
but, if it gives people comfort, i suppose, it's their right to be deluded like that.
i was imagining her corpse bursting from the coffing and saying "must feed on flesh! must feed on flesh!" the whole time.
god am i disrespectful or what?!
