First of all, let’s conclude from our previous entry. In short, Rod’s funeral was terrible – I mean.. funerals arn’t supposed to be “great” – heck, someone has to die for one to be held – but there was no celebration of his life. Every acheivement was related to his “church” - every good thing his did for the church was taken credit for by the church.

I don’t think I mentioned the fact he was mormon in the previous entry. Maybe they farewell their dead differently?! No one once mentioned his awesome guitar playing, or wonderful sense of humour. Just the fact that he “only” managed to complete four months of his “mission” – everything was drawn back to religion. At one stage someone had the gall to say that he (Rod) was going to heaven purely because he went to the only right church (as in the LDS/mormon church as a general organisation) and was a true follower of god.

How completely ridiculous is that? GRRRR! I’m not religious in any way, shape or form, but I have no problems with people who pratise their chosen religions provided they don’t hassle me, or use it to justify horrible things (war, anyone?). And especially as long as they don’t use it to judge. There are many forms of Christianity, who’s to say any of them are the right one? To be fair, at the end of the day you all believe in the same God, you just practise your worship differently. I realise it may have just been one narrow minded man, and I’ll try not to let that affect my opinion of Mormons on a whole (Stephenie Meyer is a pretty awesome mormon, just as an aside) but GRRRR at him!

I’d really like to hear you opnions on this (religion and such).

Anyhow, to the main event! Summer school has started.. and it’s terribly borning. The lecturer is great, but the content is mind numbing. It’s basically a revision of primary and intermediate school maths so far. Yawwwwn.

I had way more to say, but I’m actually quite ill. Ugh.. What a cop out of my intention to blog about summer school then going off on a tangent.
