On “atheism and monsters

I was just at holiday gathering and some cousins were playing some sort of spirit animal/tarotish card game - where you get your personality profiled - and my christian aunt began ridiculing it as weird etc etc. So i shot back at her that you believe in a talking snake and worship a zombie carpenter who performed magic tricks. And that's not just as weird. She shut her mouth after that. I wish I had thought of the age old Mark Twain Quote: "The easy confidence with which I know another man’s religion is folly teaches me to suspect that my own is also.” Thats a perfect non-offensive yet clever way to get everyone on both sides of this issue to think instead of running their mouths.
