My grandmother just beat cancer. There's this family text, like 20 deep, going around with everyone saying praise God and prayer worked blah blah blah.

I've been silent but I'm thinking of responding "Praise modern medicine"

Shrewd or trashy?

so? you asked if it was shrewd or trashy,

its trashy to make people in your family feel like shit

its also trashy to grovel for appreciation, especially in the passive aggressive manner that you've proposed doing here

------------------------------------------

everyone knows doctors are helpful, as are people who pay for them

I suspect everyone is truly appreciative for what you did, even if they haven't been exceptionally good about displaying their appreciation

I feel like the only reason you think you need to come out as an atheist is because you're behavior makes it appear that you're religious, i.e., nothing to do with your grandma, but a conflict between your internal self and external self.

Just don't act religious. I'm an atheist but I don't feel any need to tell anyone. Atheism these days is like libertarianism: pseudo-intellectual under-sexed white males who want to get angry at other people, particularly women. My atheism should be very obvious to people that know me.

Why do you care what your family thinks?

My grandma was born like 100 years ago. She is a nice person, I enjoy speaking with her, and I wish her the best. I don't really give a fuck what her opinion is of me, gay marriage, religion, or anything else. It's not relevant.

Lol, I'm definitely not well-adjusted. Just trying to help you out bud.

Yeah, I'm not talking about your wife. She already knows you're an atheist. You're saying you want to tell your "family," which I assumed was like cousins, nieces, nephews, grandparents, that was what I meant by who cares what their opinion is.

Congrats on the ass poundings, I guess.
