.....Still waiting to hear why those crossing themselves is an irritation.
Cant wait to see how yr going to explain that without offending anybody of a christian persuasion.
Well as you're insisting on thread drift, I find it irritating because it's a totally and utterly useless occupation? It also has shades of 'look after me oh Lordy- these undeservings around me can GTH!'. I imagine lots of crosses were crossed at MAD recently, and look where it got them. If there is a Lordy up there (which there isn't, it's a pagan 'comfort blanket belief'), is He really going to take any notice? He will leave you to it- but it does show everyone around what a pious, pretentious, 'better than thou' twit you are!
Certainly not wishing to offend anyone! As if I would!
And just out of fairness, the other lots are even worse.
