My gf got a religious book that was basically anti-trans in the mail last year but we do not know who sent it.

Right before Halloween we had some churchy types come to our door and thanks to our Ring doorbell we got to hear their conversation about our Friday the 13th themed porch decoration (a sign saying something about "ask for Freddy") and one of them ribbing on the other who was unfamiliar with the series. So that was fun.

My parents arent crazy religous, but ever since my mom got on social media all her childhood friends from the rural area where she grew up were able to find me.. My grandmother was very religous and one of those people from that area is now and ordained minister who for some reason likes to send me those religous chain mail things on faceboook a lot even though I havent talked to him in like 15 years..

I get emails from her sometimes and I just delete them. This time it was in the mail so she paid to be dumb

Nah. My grandma bought me bibles as gifts though. Its cool. We only ever really got into a fired up discussion about abortion, birth control, and divorce 

 

Oh 

 

Wait .... also LGBTQ issues .... jeez how did I forget that

[Seight]

Nah I thought they all used Facebook now.

I vaguely miss the days of getting one of those 'you are burning in hell' Chick Tracts in the mail with no return address. At least that was mildly amusing. Getting on a porn mailing list was less so.

Otherwise, my relatives pretty much know to leave me alone because I know where they live too.

I got a 100 page book in the mail (big margins, 14 pt font) explaining that the Catholic Church is the antichrist because they changed the sabbath from Saturday to Sunday.  Apparently people resting on the wrong day pisses God off more than anything.
