It always surprises me how people think their religion is "normal" and everyone else is worshipping idols. How "crossing yourself" and kneeling is acceptable but prostrating yourself is "weird".
The Quebec Government is trying to pass and enforce a charter that would secularise the public sector. Problem is, it's secularising everything except that which is Christian. The crucifix hanging in the National Assembly would be exempt from "secularising". Pineault-Caron secular charter testimony goes viral on YouTube Geneviève Caron and Claude Pineault were shocked to find people praying on all fours at Moroccan mosque A family’s testimony at the secular charter hearings at the Quebec national assembly has gone viral thanks to YouTube. Geneviève Caron and Claude Pineault testified late Thursday afternoon at the commission on Quebec’s controversial proposed secular charter that would ban the wearing of visible religious symbols in the public sector. Interested in intolerance? Have a look at what is happening in Quebec. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montre...tube-1.2501980 Should I be surprised at ignorance? Probably not. But the thing is, these people will get a vote.

It surprises me when people do something for me or make a gesture that's really genuine with no agenda other than just making my life a little happier.

Poor management of a business and employees apathy towards it.

Synapses, axons, dendrites....
The depths, intricacies, and idiosyncrasies of the human mind.
It is just glorious to behold the endless ways in which people process information and sensory input. I could sit for hours at a time and just quietly observe the wheels turning in as many different directions as there are people alive. It's fascinating. And it reminds me of the miraculousness of a simple thought.

It surprised me how much support I am getting in the cancer thread because I have breast cancer scare in progress. I am grateful to all those who help me make it through the day and give their support and comforting words. Man I can't believe how good it feels to know I am not alone , even though I am going through this crap alone in r/t.

I shouldn't be in this day and age, but every once in a while, someone's sense of entitlement will catch me off guard.

How my family can come together over an event that otherwise we would have no idea each of us were even aware of. Yesterday, during a playoff game, we all were making comments on Facebook. Cousins and nieces who I hadn't heard from years ago are brought together over.....social media.
It's amazing that we can share moments that we weren't aware of years ago. To be a part of their life if just for comments or pushing the like button. The photographs that bring us into each other's busy lives, living across the country. This surprises me the most...modern technology. Even this, connecting thru here, brings us together!

It surprises me that 194 children have been killed by guns since Sandyhook and so many of us are silent, we should all agree on the basics, but we continue to rationalize, how many more children have to die before we decide individually we have to take a stand?
