two rants

[Robmatthews]

I am an athiest,i dont believe in god,therefor i dont believe in christ and anything asociated with it,inc christmas.Now a lot if not 99% of you will probably say im a missrible(sp)git you may be right,but that is the way i feel,i dont believe in celabrating something that i dont believe in!!!I have told my mum this and asked her to politly pass it around the family, and that i dont want anything for christmas including cards,i put it to her it would be like taking a fat pig to a muslim party-its not the done thing, Tonight i get the first batch and my blood is BOILING.

Im sorry but im not a believer in any faith or religion, i have tried to understand it but all i end up thinking is what a waste of time and how much restraint it puts on peoples lives ie for the hard core christians-church every sunday morning, and extra time at easter and christmas or muslims stopping 4 or 5 times a day to neal and prey to macca (my info is v limited on the muslim stuff). When i think about it life is so short on this world i dont wanna finish it thinking well what a load of ######## all that was how much time i wasted-which is how i see it.
Im a very white and black kinda guy and there is no middle ground with me.you are born, you live and enjoy it to how you wanna and then you die,there is no afterlife-if there is im f**ked and will cross that bridge when i get to it.

This is a big rant from me If you are religious and do have a faith,i do not intend to offend you,but im just fed up with it all in my face so much!

Can i also ask any believers (light heartedly) how do you know that god is really the good one?

Right i have my bullit proof vest on so fire away!

How's your engine?

[Albannach]

You're essentially saying you're pi$$ed off with having religeon rammed down your throat, then go on to ram atheism down ours!

Pot-kettle-black?

Can you see the cup of tea im holding in my hand?

i'd imagine there are a lot of people who don't even associate christmas with any religion, and even a few that don't know that it's jesus' birthday!

why don't you just use it as an excuse for a day off work and eat some sweeties?!

p.s. Jesus wasn't a christian either!

I was actually about to ask if he took the holidays or worked them?

[Albannach]

Oh, just to put the other unwinable argument into this particular can of worms. I Voted Tory when Thatcher won, then went Labour when she introduced the CSA (because of the way they did it) and now vote SNP.

worst part of christmas is that the shop is only open till 12!...

when you've been out on the #### the night before and wake at 11.55, then find you've run out of fags!..... Ggrrrr!!

Thanks for the laugh

As for work dont get me started!Normally we would be given the days between christmas eve and 5th jan,and paid for it now they are 'shutting down' and we can either take it from next years holiday or go unpaid its up to us-well a i cant afford to go unpaid and b as they only made the ultimatium last week i have no holiday left from this year and if i leave next year befor working up my holiday i would have it taken off my final wage anyway !! i have told them that i will be avaiable to work and i dont do christmas so cant be forced to take it but they recon they can and if i dont like it find another job-which i would normally look for but its not really a good time to do that!
