i'm an atheist (although catholic) but somehow it's interesting, i think. whatever.

My husband use to be kinda atheist. I talk him out of it some way. His not very religious.

Could you explain that?


And I don't care about the pope's at all.

i was baptized, do not believe in god, but did not (yet) leave the institution church.

Brody stayed home from school because I was watching this..I know..I'm a horrible parent, but I feel it's a part of history and I wanted him to experience it..We're not religious, but it was amazing to see so many people in one place waiting for just a plain human being to come out and say a few words..It's a bummer they didn't go with someone who would be at least a bit less conservative..It would be nice to see some modernization of the Catholic church, but I guess that wouldn't be staying true to the religion in the first place..Ahh well..It was exciting to watch at least..

I'll tell my teachers that's the reason I wasn't at school today. Now to think up explanations for the rest of the days I didn't show up...

Uhh..You were grieving the Pope's death?

Or you were helping the new pope get elected.

good suggestions. then if they say i'm lying or something i can yell that they are offending my religion and run off crying.

You always run off crying. What's your deal?

Awwwwwww!! Thanks Robotic! :duh:

I'm surprised I actually paid attention to it. It's good to take a bit of history with you. Now, I guess I have something else to tell my grand-kids.

I was watching it before I went to school and he hadn't come out yet. Then I was sitting in my math class and I yelled at the teacher (whom already thinks I am crazy) to turn the damn tv on so I could see who the new pope is. It was funny I was all like This is important to me I am a satanist. he was like UH. . . . . . and then he turned it on, it was great. . . . .

Have you ever wondered why the smoke is white. . . . . .maybe they're in there celebrateing the new pope by smokin' some reefer. . . . .and by the way tomorrow happends to be 420 . . . . Hitler's Birthday. . . . a coincidence with the pope's death, I think not.

It's also my brother's birthday tomorrow.

Crazy, you should tell him he has the funniest birthday on the planet.

Ok. He's pretty funny himself. A couple years ago on his birthday some one asked him how it felt to be 23, and he replied, "Well, it's the oldest I've ever been." Maybe you had to be there. It was good, though.

It sounds funny. . . . .if someone said that to me I would probably say the same thing. . . .alas my birthday has already past though. . . . .

I'm celebrating..It's 4:20 SOMEWHERE in the world..:D
