My boyfriend did not understand my love of this show until he watched Season 1 of “Marriage Bootcamp: Bridezillas” with me. He was sucked in and then we had to watch alllllll the Bridezillas together. It also led tangentially to his unabashed hate-watching love of “My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding.” #truluv

The Rugrats Movie. Tommy is about to drench his little brother Dil Pickles in banana flavored baby food. He wants the Monkeys to then eat his little brother. When he sees what he is doing he stop. I cried after a little cartoon baby said, “Monkeys want the ‘naners.”

I almost lost it just now reading Burneko talking about dogs. I’m going to hug my dogs tonight.

Yeah the bit with the lady tucking her kids in is where I usually have to turn the movie off. Because the thing is, lots and lots and lots of people probably did have to do their own versions of that when the Titanic sank! It’s unbearable to think about.

I cried during Inside Out.

Yes, This. It seems her feelings aren’t as much tied up in the ontological/dogma/doctrine trappings of religion but the rituals, rites, and shared history.

But also, don’t assume that people don’t want Taco Bell, maybe? This is how we got stuck with Trump even after all the polling told us it would never happen. There are plenty of people who could be offered a gourmet meal and they would turn it down for something more familiar and far, FAR less delicious.

Damn you could not pay me to post anything I wrote from age 11-15 on the internet, so at the very least you have my respect for being self-confident enough to do so.

There’s plenty of breakaway conservative catholic sects. Especially in response to John Paul II and Francis. Only makes sense liberals to do the same.

I really wish that Pew survey actually covered people of faith who are in relationships with humanists/atheists/non-believers, whatever you want to call them. That’s a number I would like to see.

Their families came around, but the scandal cost them several friends (some of whom later left religious life themselves to get married).

I’d want a fictionalized “reality show” because he’s such a fucking good storyteller.

I can get along with anyone, as long as their belief system doesn’t involve destruction of those who don’t share it... which is why I don’t get along with Redhat Trumpsters.

Catholic guilt can be a real bitch. I know a little something about it...

I saw John Waters at a bar once. Not only was he not an asshole when I asked if I could take a picture with him, but he bought me a drink and chatted for 15 minutes or so.

Why “Internet Atheists,” which has a negative connotation? Are the Catholics commenting not “Internet Catholics?” This is a good example of how people often talk about atheists in a negative way, while theists are just “normal.”

I went to a Jesuit university in an area with a huge Jewish population. So, suffice to say I have. Jesuits are Christians. Jews follow the Torah. The literal text of their book has no place for any of the listed things.

The Church refuses to recognize the Union because the atheist doesn’t want to convert.

You get a Rom-Com?
