Got a new Jesus tip yesterday.

Gee thanks for leaving fake money that I can't buy food with. You're such a kind, generous person that must love providing for those that don't have as much as you. Don't think I didn't see your ass with that designer bag and high heels.

I don't think I could handle living in America. Too much religion, even for a religious guy like me. Nobody I've met in Australia brings up God in polite conversation, much less insinuate somebody going to hell.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

It depends. I work an hourly wage, about ten bucks an hour, so tips are not required. (They're sure as shit appreciated if you're gonna leave garbage all over the table and poop on the bathroom floor, though, you ingrates.)

Other places, though, they only make about two dollars an hour, so tips are absolutely a necessity for them to even meet minimum wage. This is legal because it is expected that people will tip. But then at the same time there's a culture, especially around rich areas like this, that discourages tipping anyway.

[up]You wouldn't last a day here. Detective J and I have unofficially formed a Hell Club where we back each other up and talk about how much we love worshiping Satan every time a customer tells us we're gonna burn.

But I thought America liked Catholicism. They sure as shit were eager to exploit the Pope's visit for every agenda they could think up, Protestant or not.

America has a history of anti-Catholicism, actually.

The US is a predominantly Protestant country.

By this point I've become completely numb to the possibility that if God is real then I'm going to burn for eternity. It's like someone threatening to punch you in the face if you don't give them your lunch money. You hear it every day, so eventually you just tune it out. And then if they do eventually punch you, you're just kinda like "oh, well that happened I guess". If that's what's gonna happen to me, then, you know, whatever. If that's how it works I'd honestly rather go to Hell just out of spite for God making shit work that way.

Then why do people like the Pope? Is it like anti-monarchy folks in Australia going bananas over the baby prince?

I've been having an irritable GI tract, lately, so I'm afraid that would end with me in a coffin.

@Space: About six different bible clubs meet here daily. We get a lot of funny looks.

@Norm: Because everything is so fucking nuts these days that even someone that's still technically really conservative like the Pope practically looks like a moderate in the face of everything else.

I'm not sure that the Pope is liked by a majority, but nobody (especially not in the Capitol) is dumb enough to not use him as a way to score political brownie points.

I imagine a bunch of the Congressmen waxing on about his visit were doing it for purely pragmatic reasons, not religious ones.
