My father's side of the family is mostly nuts (and subsequently estranged from us). A woman who married into the family is one of the worst of the bunch -- she is an overbearingly devout Christian. This is not to say that Christians are bad, or devoted Christians are bad (for the most part), but she clearly uses God as a tool to promote others' focus on her or to write off the concerted efforts of others as simply "God's will."
An example of this would be her logorrheic blog that our family discovered. The blog is the way we are able to see how the few sane people in that large family are doing, but news about them is few and far between, as she mostly talks about Jesus and posts pictures of herself. A highlight:

So strange to think I'm technically related to this woman. After browsing through the blog for about an hour with my mom, I tell my her that I want to stop -- all this crap is upsetting me. "It's cathartic!" she said. And I suppose she's right; what else is Christmas about than crazy family and dwelling on the unalterable relation?
Merry Ex-Mass.

i'm sitting next to a certain VERY devout christian that we both know and he doesn't like your tone one bit. he's demonstrating his disapproval by licking his own anus. merry christmas.
ReplyDeleteGOOD. I'm glad. That guy wouldn't let me kiss him except for the fact that (while handicapable) he can't wrestle himself away from my loving arms. Douche.
