UPDATE: A hurricane window I ordered was, despite the odds, installed one day before Hurricane Irma crashed into Florida. I feel much safer now. The universe can shove it.
While the universe is trying to kill me, here is a post I recommend. It's at Recognizing religion as a class of mental illness would be a start in curing this disease. It's one of my cut & paste jobs from July 2012.
Obviously a belief in a magical being (Easter Bunny, Allah, Zeus, leprechauns, God) is a mental illness. For most of victims this disease is incurable. The only cure is the victims must realize how sick they are. Not easy to do, especially for the hard of thinking.
The problem is religious brainwashing, aka child abuse, sucks all the curiosity out of children. They learn how to not think and not wonder why. They learn nothing because they think they know everything.
I was infected with the god disease. Fortunately I had some friends who laughed at me when I explained some of the weird fantasies of the Catholic Church. Later my girlfriend asked me why do I go to church. The question shocked me and I was speechless.
A few months later the Pastor, two Sundays in a row, spent the entire sermon telling us why we had to give more money to the wealthy Vatican. That's the last time I went to church. It took me a few more years to completely throw out the ridiculous Magic Man fantasy. I finally got it right despite the intense brainwashing at a Catholic school.
These days I know too much about science. It would be impossible for me to throw out reality and replace reality with the moronic fantasies of a religious cult. I just don't have what it takes to have a cowardly belief in an invisible magic god fairy.
