Forget the memorial... Pagans have much better wine, and you get to drink it like 8 times a year. lol
Pagans have all the fun.
I haven't received my invite yet. I must be marked or somethin'. Guess they still have time though. It's really useless to invite me. I gotta change the tires on my jeep and then wash my hair, which takes hours to dry.
From FHN's pic there, the slogan scripture "Take Refuse Refuge In the Name of Jehovah."... well I'd just like to say that if you're caught in a tornado or hurricane, your best bet is to take refuge in a stand of clumping bamboo. Jehovah ain't gonna save ya.

I'm an agnostic and I don't miss the Memorial at all. I mean hell- we never got to drink the wine or munch on the bread ! What's the point in that ? Passing it around like the bunch of dolts we were. So weird. It was so stressful to me to have to stand in the back for 45 minutes to an hour because I gave my seats up not even sitting with my family to be a gentleman so others could sit with their families. I mean hells bells- I at least deserved a sip of wine for THAT little favor- ya think ? One of these years I've gotta go to one of those things and just down a whole glass in a gulp and smile nodding my head to people watching. Then pull out a bottle and pour another glass I bring with me. Wonder if they'd throw me out ? Peace out, Mr. Flipper

I too am an atheist and I miss the memorial about as much as I would a knife in the eye....

I remember the first time I attended a Memorial and watched everyone attending a "meal" where no one actually ate or drank anything.
You know you are getting indoctrinated when that makes sense to you...
