@darrelplant @amyfallon I used to be supportive of ppl of faith. I'm less and less these days bc the heavily devout/ evangelist of all faiths are just sooo judgemental and driven by rules. Plus the rules are nonsensical, phobic and prone to cherry picking.
I will never understand why women are placed in positions subservient to men. Nor why LGBTQI+ are somehow devils spawn. It seems to me the basest of contradictions in multiple faiths and driven by human religious leaders who overlay their hate into already outdated holy texts.
I have 3 close friends who identify as deeply Christian/Moslem/Jewish and live kind and unprejudiced lives. I think however that comes from a place of deep humanity more than a holy text. They are good people with or without the Bible/Q'ran/Torah.
They all say they are drawn to faith bc of the community, and the social life that comes with worship, more than the rites and dogma. So why don't we build communities with social hubs rather than churches mosques and synagogues? 🤔

I have to share this story, as my #FaithInHumanity was given quite a boost today.
I had finished an all day onsite with a client today in #Galway and was on my way home at the starting of rush hour.
I was just changing lanes for the M6-M18 interchange and I went over a cats-eye, which rattled the steering a bit and then about 10 seconds later, I knew I had a flat, but there was nowhere safe to pull over. So I found a spot on the actual interchange itself to pull over safely.
I've no problem changing wheels. I haven't needed to do so in about 10 years, but I'm well able, as we say.
In the 20 minutes I was stopped changing the wheel, 3 people stopped and asked if I needed help. The first as I was getting the spare and jack out. The second while I was jacking the car and the third as I was lowering it down again.
The kindness of these strangers is just incredible to cynical old me, in this day and age. All of them were in their 20s or early 30s.
I thanked each of them profusely for the offer and wished them a safe onward journey. What really hit this home for me, was they took the risk to slow right down and pull over off the road of this busy intersection to assist big old me. On the Google map below, X marks where I had parked.
So I'll just leave this here. #GalwayPeople ... ye're fucking #Legends so you are! Thank you.

nothing will restore your #faithinhumanity faster than an afternoon asking for food donations for a #foodparcels charity
ppl are so generous & giving but NGL I burst into tears when a woman who had asked loads of questions about needs donated an FULL trolley of food & other bits

I fell in the rain on Parnell St today. I'll live but I really struggled to get back up again, and I slipped again while trying to right myself. And this woman who was standing metres away just stared at me the whole time. Not that she could have done anything, I didn't need an ambulance or anything, but I would like to think my first reaction would be to at least try and help someone up. 😞 Worldview maybe a little bit shattered tonight? #dublin #faithinhumanity
