Just back from a small wedding ceremony in a Church. 1st religious wedding I've been at in yonks. Forgot what absolute religious nonsense the priest does be spouting. Seemed like Nice fella with a sense of humour but fucking hell, mass is shite

I don't get right of passage ceremonies full stop, replacing them with atheist versions seems pointless to me and always has.

I used to read The Freethinker in the mid 90's (the magazine of the British Humanist Association)
jesus it was boring. a really establishment version of atheism.
Dawkins was one of their patrons - he's an awful bore as well.

where did I learn about religion? nearly entirely in school - whether I wanted to or not.
the priest I dealt with for most of primary school wasn't very nice but he never hit me unlike the teachers.
I've long come to the conclusion school did me a lot more harm than religion and they just happened to be in league together

let's just get religion out of schools and hospitals and we'll be OK.

I just don't do weddings. I don't do pointless rituals in general. I make exceptions for family stuff, that's it.

 

[nuke terrorist]

I think I've been at three weddings in my life.
my nephew had his daughter christened, so me declining to attend churches for his first communion etc on basis he might not be happy about religion when he was older was unfounded.
he's still not religious but he's certainly not against it either.

Pretty much every weddding I've been to,and performed as a part of a wedding band, has ended in divorce.

Is it me?

I like rituals. Neither of our kids are baptised, but we had parties for them shortly after they were born. Same when the older one was leaving primary school, we had a kind of non-confirmation thing for her. No speechifying or anything, just a party to bring people together and make a fuss about someone you love

Without rituals we'll be like the brits slinging a corpse in a cardboard box to drive to the crematorium

 

[nuke terrorist]

If somebody organised a party for me it would be like asking me to go on This Is Your Life.
No thanks Eamonn.

Having party for a new baby - yeah! that's something to celebrate. Birthday parties are cool - for kids. So is retiring and getting to 100.
But the rest of it is pointless and should never have been invented:
Graduating preschool, first communion, confirmation, going out after getting junior cert results, 18th birthday, school graduation, 21st birthday, college graduation, wedding, wedding anniversaries....
what's the point? nearly all traumatic things best forgotten or to be avoided completely.
Mother's / Father's / Valentine's Day are annoying nonsense.

My folks organised something small for 18th birthday without telling me. I wasn't amused.
Sometimes people don't want to made a fuss of and these things are done more for other people's benefit.

A ... Christmas party, perhaps?
