yesterday my bf's dad had a stroke, so i scrambled off to milpark hospital. while i was sitting outside the ICU, minding my own business and reading a book, i could not help notice a family in obvious distress.
what i could gather, is that the wife/mother has been ill for three months, and she had a relapse. everyone was crying.
and lo! a bible toting woman comes swooning by, proclaiming that 'it's in gods hands now' and 'praying will make you feel better' and so on and so forth.
generally, im i dont get uppity about the regious, but i just felt a fucking fury building inside me. this woman, fokken vroom, with her leather bound collection of bullshit.
i had to keep myself from commenting out loudly, and i was actually looking forward to running into the bullshit monger in the aisles somehwere, so i can take her on.
maybe it was the stress of the day, the atmosphere of general misery in the place, or my own guilt-feeling for when my own dad died, but that religious bullshit just pissed me off to such an extent, that i was ready to jump and and yell 'liar!!' at this female.
