Religion with the not-so-sober...
Today, me and the kids went to the Museum of Discovery and Science and they had a good time. :) They had a cool frog exhibit and I got to see a baby sea turtle!! It was sooooo cute!! I wish I had brought my camera... I need to start remembering it!!
Well, tonight, I was hanging out at my cousin's house for a little party thing. My uncle cooked good steak and he, his brother (my uncle-in-law?), and my aunt drank... My mom had 2 glasses of wine as well, but she is not a drinker like these guys can be.
So, anyways, when my uncle(in-law?) drinks, he kind of opens up. He was talking to my mom about religion for what ever reason, and he asked me what I thought. I replied "I believe in biology." (We had been talking about it earlier) Then he and I had this cool conversation about how he doesn't believe in religion and how we are all connected and how when we die, we will be turned into something else. Not like reincarnation, but like how the proteins and stuff will break down and turn into worm food and then maybe plant food and into new energy for other animals or people or whatever.
It was really cool. Our views aren't exactly the same (no one's are) but it was cool to connect with a family member who isn't my age, or close to it, in that kind of way. I just assumed that he was religious like his brother is. It was really neat.
I have so much nonsense to do this weekend, but it's a 3 day weekend, so it's all gravy! :D
Hope everyone is okie-dokie... :D Mucho amor to all!!
