Here’s the thing I never understood. Your parents die. You’re at the funeral and everybody says “I bet they’re looking down from heaven at you, right now.”

So you’re telling me your parents die, they get up to heaven, somehow get notice about when their own funeral is despite not even being on the same planet, have the ability to watch from across the galaxy at any given time…and they choose to watch a bunch of depressed people in black suits cry over a box that contains their own corpse? And what about your grandparents? Were they watching over your parents before they died? What are they doing now? Is heaven so boring that it’s inhabitants just spend eternity watching various generations of families? And what happens if you never have kids? What do they do when you die? Do they watch someone else? Do they watch while you’re pooping? Do your dead ancestors watch you have sex, and know your kinks?

Yeah, religion starts falling apart real quick when you begin questioning things.
