I should say as well that, for similar reasons to hating that idea of heaven, I refuse to do any of that "ancestry.com" DNA test family tree stuff. I'm always confused when people are so willing to get those tests done. Not just because I think the idea of signing away my DNA to a profit-based organisation is really strange, but also because I really don't wanna take the risk of finding out some great-great-great-great-granddad of mine was actually the worlds biggest nonce in history, or to find out i'm actually a product of incest or something. I know a lot of Americans are obsessed with getting tests like that done, and I kind of get it from a black persons perspective, if you want to find out where your family originally came from before slavery, but everyone else? They all seem to be hoping that they'll be related to Henry VIII, Charlemagne, or if they're feeling "spicy" they hope that they were actually a distant relative to Saddam Hussein or something so they can tell people at parties that they've got famous blood.

Personally, i'd be mortified if I found out that I was related to any sort of aristocracy, i'd feel like my blood was tainted and want to tear it out.
